I detta arbete undersöks hur deltagarna på nätforumen Flashback och Familjeliv konstruerar kön och sexualitet. Vi vill undersöka huruvida användare på forum som är manligt respektive kvinnligt dominerade uttrycker sig på liknande sätt i diskussioner gällande sex. Vårt fokus ligger på hur olika aspekter av sexualitet diskuteras och hur man i dessa diskussioner väver in moral, normer och värderingar. Internetbaserad kommunikation och den aggressivitet som kan uppvisas där är ett mycket aktuellt ämne, bland annat i massmediala kanaler. Till exempel förs en debatt kring näthat där fokus ligger på män som uttrycker sig aggressivt och hotfullt mot kvinnor.

Revisorsrollen har förändrats över tiden. Tidigare arbetade revisorn bara med revision och revisionsrådgivning, men numera ingår även en roll som rådgivare i frågor som inte direkt är förknippade med revision. När revisorns kunskaper inte räcker till måste denne ta hjälp av olika specialister. För att revisorn vid den lilla revisionsbyrån ska få tillgång till dessa specialister är ett externt nätverk nödvändigt. Syftet med denna uppsats har varit att kartlägga hur nätverket ser ut för revisorn vid den lilla revisionsbyrån.

Defining the concept of information has long been the subject of debate within Information Science (IS) and new challenges are constantly presented by new scientific discoveries and new theoretical positions. It is, nevertheless, of key importance for any academic discipline to find definitions on which there is a consensus. The paper therefore aims to clarify the relevance of one of these new theoretical approaches for IS, namely poststructuralism. It does so by describing the theories found in the writings of poststructuralists Mark C. Taylor, Jacques Derrida and Michel Foucault, and discussing their relevance for the three definitions of information suggested by Michael Buckland (Information-as-knowledge, Information-as thing and Information-as-process), thereby answering the following questions: What relevance does Mark C.
