Civilekonomuppsats i företagsekonomi, Ekonomihögskolan vid Linnéuniversitet, 2011Författare:Rasmus Wallgren & Pär Ericson Handledare: Christopher Von Koch Examinator: Sven-Olof Yrjö Collin Titel: En studie i rationalitet Bakgrund och problem: Den senaste finansiella krisen ledde till ökad granskning och kritik mot Efficient Market Hypothesis och tron på rationella förväntningar och effektiva marknader. Behavioral finance uppkom som ett försök att förklara varför de traditionella synsätten inte alltid tycks förklara marknadsaktörers beteende och ifrågasätter synsättet om att marknadens aktörer agerar rationellt. Vår studie bidrar med en jämförelse mellan privatpersoner och fondförvaltare i deras rationalitet. Detta är intressant eftersom många privatpersoner väljer att spara i fonder och ställer därmed sina besparingar till fondförvaltarnas förfogande. Syfte: Att undersöka huruvida det finns skillnader mellan privata aktiesparare och fondförvaltare i deras rationalitet vid beslutsfattande.

This essay concerns the fantastic and its position in narration. The fantastic's defintion is based on Martin Horstkotte's defintion in The Postmodern Fantastic and the essay focuses on the noncontextual aspects such as the clash between two incompatible fictional worlds and the absence created. Instead of the ordinary identification of the established fictional world with realism and our reality it is suggested that both of the colliding fictional worlds are fictive and that the established one not necessarily need to be realistic. Exampels on how the fantastic takes place on the syntagmatic level in a narration is drawn from the short story ?Samvetets fantasi? by Clas Livijn when analysed with Peter Brooks' closurebased narratology theory in Reading for the Plot.

I den här uppsatsen har jag gjort en närläsning av Martin Heideggers ?On the way to Language? (?Unterwegs zur Sprache?) skriven år 1959. Boken som var Heideggers sista verk är en dialog mellan Heidegger och en japan som spelas av honom själv i syfte reflektera. Uppsatsen behandlar bokens tema om hur något främmande oss själva (som är vi själva) kan mötas eller inte mötas genom ett språk. Jag har i och med Heidegger sett på ett språks fara och begränsningar liksom dess möjligheter och vägar till kunskap via dialogformen och den estetiska yttringen poesi.

Is the Swedish author Stig Dagerman an existentialist? This work takes a close look at Dagerman?s novel Island of the Doomed to see if it is possible to consider it an expression of existentialist thinking and to see if it interacts with any specific existentialist tradition. Dagerman?s novel was compared with select works of five existentialist thinkers ? Søren Kierkegaard, Martin Heidegger, Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus and Karl Jaspers, all read in the light of the four categories of existentialistic thinking identified by the Swedish scholar Lennart Koskinen. All the four categories appeared to be central themes within the novel and a few subcategories were identified.

Religious phenomena, such as prayer, have more or less always interested and engaged people, but most likely for different purposes. Since the early 20th century, starting notably with Edmund Husserl and especially Martin Heidegger, phenomenologists have taken an interest in understanding and expounding the meaning of religious phenomena. The attention of such a discourse have not ceased but is rather current, and also of importance seeing that religious themes, such as prayer, still occupy a great extent of human life and practice.Phenomenology of religion is not a science of religion: the former approaches religion in terms of its meaningfulness, whereas the latter as an object of inquiry and in the same manner as an economist approaches economical indicators in order to understand and explain how the whole economy functions. In other words, phenomenology of religion expounds religion, as it were, from within, while science of religion does it from without or externally.When approaching prayer phenomenologically, it shows itself to be a process or structure through which the one praying empty himself in order to be able to receive the valuable presence of the other. The value that is received from the other will also be reflected by the one praying and in that sense effect his surroundings and fellow humans..

Burn out is common among people who work with other people and occurs in both ecclesiastical and non ecclesiastical context. In recent years, the phenomenon has attracted increasing attention in the Church of Sweden and among persons who hold a consecration service as priests.The purpose of this essay is to study the text material from the two authors (Lennart Belfrage 2009 and Martin Petré 2013) and to analyze and describe them. Another goal is to see how the coping theory may be helpful for this group of priests to handle the situation arising in the time of burnout.I have used the qualitative research and hermeneutics method for categorize and encode the material in order to interpret and understand the underlying causes that could explain burnout among priests in the Church of SwedenPargaments (1997) coping theory has been important for analysis and explanation of burnout among a group of priests in the Church of Sweden.In the result, I have found four components that may be useful in the understanding of the cause of burnout. The analysis shows that Pargaments (1997) coping theory is useful to manage complex situations for example burnout, among priests in the Church of Sweden..

Den etniska minoriteten assyrier/syrianer har två fotbollslag i Södertälje, Assyriska FF och Syrianska FC. Assyrier/syrianer anses vara samma folk men har en intern konflikt om den rätta benämningen på gruppen. När de två falangernas respektive fotbollslag möts i ett derby, skrivs det mycket i tidningarna både före och efter mötet. Matchen bedöms av polisen som en så kallad ?högriskmatch? på grund av motsättningarna mellan de olika lagens supportrar.
