De mänskliga rättigheterna avser och innefattar alla individer. De mänskliga rättigheterna är allomfattande och menar på att alla individer är födda fria, har samma värde och rättigheter. De berör alla människor över hela världen, bortsett från nationalitet, kultur eller andra kontexter. Mäns våld mot kvinnor i nära relationer är ett allvarsamt samhällsproblem som uppmärksammats i Sverige och ställer högre krav på statens myndigheter att förfara och tag till insatser. Trots FN:s mänskliga rättigheter, Europa konventionen och de svenska grundlagarna förekommer det diskriminering, förtryck, våld och mord på kvinnor runt om i landet.

Bakgrund Svenska livsmedelsverkets rekommendation att minska konsumtionen av mättat fett har på senaste tiden ifrågasatts. Kritiker anser att det saknas belägg för att mättat fett och hög fettkonsumtion ökar risken för övervikt och hjärt- kärlsjukdom. Debatten har figurerat i media där kostbudskapen ofta är förenklade och motsägelsefulla vilket kan ha skapat en förvirring hos konsumenterna. Syfte Syftet var att undersöka deltagarnas val av matfett och fetthalt i mejeriprodukter, attityder kring fett och hälsa, förtroendet för olika kostinformationskällor, samt skillnader mellan kön-, ålder- och utbildningsgrupper.? Metod En enkätstudie genomfördes utanför tre matbutiker i Umeå.

Each December thousands of Swedish families sit down to watch the annual "Christmas calendar", a series containing 24 episodes. Since the start in 1960, the Swedish public service television company, Sveriges Television, have broadcast a Christmas calendar every year, and is now seen as a firm tradition, attracting audiences of all ages, though the main audience is children. Research has shown that children?s television programs to a certain extent have the same function as news journalism has in agenda setting. Media, together with feedback and interaction with other individuals, plays a big role in the process of socialization.

By studying literature concerning design, didactics and reflection, and complementing those explorations with interviews with experienced design educators, this thesis challenges the idea of aesthetic media education being purely aesthetic in its characteristics. Drawing from their own experiences as a media aesthetics educator and an industrial designer, the two authors argue that the work flow used within most fields of design, commonly known as the design process, might provide a suitable didactic alternative to a field of education lacking relevant methodology. The literature study offers a better understanding of the design process and how it may be defined and viewed within an educational context. The interviews provide a more practical insight into the world of design education. The result shows that the design process as a didactical method theoretically offers both elements of critical thinking as well as direction and frames for students lacking aesthetic and artistic experience.

The aim of this essay is to analyze how media constructs strategic positional statements in debates of great immediate interest in order to stress ideological standpoints. Two questions are derived on the basis of this aim.- How is Russia positioned in Svenska Dagbladet's and Dagens Nyheter's editorials in the debate on the Swedish defence during 09-01-13 - 09-01-31?- Are there differences in the positional statements between the newspapers?In the study a Critical Discourse Analytical (CDA) approach is applied, and more specifically that of Teun A. van Dijk. Both the theoretical basis and the methodological tools are based on van Dijks CDA.

Regeringskrisen 2014 varade 26 dagar mellan den andra december och den 27:e december då den avslutades i och med Decemberöverenskommelsen. Men trots att regeringskrisen nu är över så visade den att vad vi vet om regeringskriser inom ett medialt och ett politiskt kommunikativt perspektiv är lite. Det är ett relativt outforskat område, åtminstone i en svensk kontext. Det kan bero på att de är få till antalet och att den senaste regeringskrisen inträffade över 20 år sedan, vilket gör fenomenet till något som är mindre aktuellt. Regeringskrisen 2014 gjorde dock denna typ av politisk händelse aktuellt igen. Syftet för denna undersökning är att bidra till en ökad förståelse och ökad kunskap om hur regeringskriser skildras i media, för att kunna bidra med en liten pusselbit för att minska kunskapsluckan om fenomenet.Undersökningen ämnar svara på forskningsfrågan: ?Hur svenska medier skildrade Regeringskrisen 2014?.

AbstractTitle: Dragshow on the seven seasNumber of pages: 51 (56 including enclosures)Author: Therése PlastrougiTutor: Ylva EkströmCourse: Media and Communication Studies CPeriod: Fall 2007University: Division of Media and Communication, Department of Information Science, Uppsala UniversityPurpose/Aim: My main purpose with this paper is 1) to study how film as a media can subvert traditional gender constructions and 2) study the character of Elizabeth Swann in the trilogy Pirates of the Caribbean through four dimensions; Gender performance, Class, Desire and Power.Material/Method: My main material is the trilogy Pirates of the Caribbean. I have studied Elizabeth?s character based on semiotic and narratological methods.Main results: Film as a media possesses the full potential to change traditional gender roles, but the full subversion is denied due to the heterosexual matrix.

AbstractIT can facilitate communication among individuals and connect people across geographical distances. On the contrary, citizens of the society who do not use communication technologies to some extent might feel excluded from the information society. As elderly citizens are already in a vulnerable position for the digital divide, communication technology becomes an important tool for interacting with friends and family. The social situation of elderly, 60 years of age and older, is a topic of current interest since they are the fastest growing age group in the world today. Further, social interaction becomes more important among elderly since it has a positive effect on well- being.

I denna kandidatuppsats genomförs en studie på två småföretag som verkar inom den svenska modebranschen. Syftet med denna undersökning är att genom två fallstudier undersöka vilka konkurrensstrategier som är avgörande för att småföretag ska lyckas etablera sig inom den svenska modemarknaden. Syftet med undersökningen är även att ta reda på om de företagen som undersöks i studien använder sig av de strategier som beskrivs i teorin.Intresset för modet i Sverige är stort och ökar då bevakningen från media tilltar. Det allra flesta företag som verkar inom den svenska modeindustrin är små med endast ett fåtal anställda. Trots det stigande intresset för mode har småföretagen svårt att etablera sig och möter många hinder och en accelererande konkurrens.För att besvara syftet har en fallstudie genomförts på företagen Papagaio AB och Gram.

Purpose of the essay: The purpose of the essay is to, from the view of the nurses working at the x-ray infirmary; see how the internal e-mail communication is working as the main digital communication method at the x-ray infirmary.Material/Method: The material has been collected using qualitative interviews with eight nurses working at the x-ray infirmary. The material has then been analyzed through a theoretical perspective based on The Media Richness theory.Main results: The results of the investigation have shown that the nurses see the internal e-mail communication as relatively poor. The information that is sent out by their superiors is often too extensive, this making the screening work an extra work burden. These e-mails are also supplied to the whole infirmary instead of being addressed to specific individuals. Seen through a media richness perspective, the e-mail is a mediumrich communication medium that well could be used in the everyday communication at the infirmary as the main communication agent.
