The following essay is named The canonization of Joan of Arc, a Church political strategy or the creation of a national symbol? Joan of Arc, the French heroine of the Hundred Years War, was canonized as late as 1920, in a process that began already in 1869. In the following essay I am trying to work out if this canonization is a work of the Vatican in order to gain popularity in France after the breakup with the state in 1905.

Sedan Internets revolution har domännamn blivit en allt viktigare tillgång för företag. Författarna har identifierat två syften med att inneha domännamn, varumärksesyfte och spekulationssyfte. Företag som investerar i domännamn i spekulationssyfte köper domännamnet för att sedan avyttra tillgången med vinst. Genomförd förstudie visar på att det kan uppstå problem när det kommer till klassificeringen av domännamn i spekulationssyfte. Idag finns det inte heller något uttalande från BFN om hur domännamn specifikt skall redovisas eller klassificeras.

Men politiskt är landet mycket instabilt, ett krig där över 12 000 människor förlorat sina liv har nyligen kommit till sitt slut. Det varade i tio år mellan åren 1996 och 2006. Dess mål var att förvandla världens sista hinduiska kungadöme till en republik, ett mål som nu blivit verklighet.Ansvarig för kriget är den nepalesiska maoistiska rörelsen och frågan som behandlas i denna uppsats är varför dessa maoister vann folkets stöd och inte den neoliberala staten.Detta sker i form av en fallstudie vars främsta uppgift är att syna rörelsens sociala framing samt landets politiska, sociala och ekonomiska situation..
