Dagens stilikoner har en odiskutabel maktposition inom modebranschen. Media bidrar till utvecklingen genom att förmedla budskap till konsumenten. Avsikten med den här uppsatsen är att belysa medias roll i kommunikationen av stilikoner samtidigt som konsumentens förhållande till stilikoner ska granskas. Hur ser bilden av en stilikon ut från mediernas respektive konsumentens synvinkel? Är det medierna som styr vad konsumenterna anser vara stilfullt, eller är det i själva verket konsumenterna som har makten? Uppsatsen är av kvalitativ karaktär och baseras på djupintervjuer med konsumenter och mode¬experter.

Syftet med den här uppsatsen har varit att redogöra för hur fem kommuner har resonerat i valet av riktlinjer för sociala medier och huruvida den ökade användningen av social media innebär en rörelse mot e-demokrati och e-förvaltning eller inte. Med hjälp av en enkätundersökning har den empiriska delen av uppsatsen besvarats. Fyra frågor: Varför väljer en kommun att ta fram egna riktlinjer? Vad är bakomliggande skäl till en kommuns utformning av riktlinjer? Kan olika val av riktlinjer få negativa konsekvenser? Varför väljer en kommun att synas i sociala medier? ingick i en enkät som skickades via e-post till Piteå, Halmstad, Norrköping, Eskilstuna och Stockholm stad. Den femte frågan i uppsatsens frågeställning, nämligen: Vad skiljer sig mellan de olika riktlinjerna? har besvarats utifrån kommunernas dokument för uppsatta riktlinjer för social media som publicerats på kommunens hemsida.Social media är en del av statens mötesplats, en plats där vi människor kan ha direkt kontakt med politikerna och föra en diskussion.

In the two years 1994 and 2013 the focus of the Swedish media in the school debate has been on segregation, freedom of choice, and support for weak students. In 2013 while the media was still united on the above issues the overall emphasis is on profitability. In 1994 the focus was more on weak students who in 2013 are considered unprofitable.The purpose of this essay is to study the Swedish media and their debate on Swedish schools and witch concepts related to "one school that fits all" in the year 1994 and also in 2013.We have analysed related articles and their concepts, norms, and values to see if there are any differences between their focus on the said issues in the two years.We have also studied the ideas and concepts that came under scrutiny and discussion in these two years, and shall investigate if there are differences in the debates conducted in 1994 and those conducted in 2013..

This thesis focuses on RM and customer relationships and tries to answer two research questions: how firms can retain customers and how to generate profitable customer relationships by using relationship marketing. We conducted case studies on JOB media, a company in Luleå, and Polardörren, a company in Öjebyn, Piteå. Our research has revealed that in many ways our case study companies conform in major ways to the theory in this particular area. However there are differences between how these two firms go about in regard to customer retention and establishing profitable customer relationship. We have discovered that JOB media, which is a service company is more inclined to maintaining close and long-term relationships with its customers.

With this essay I have tried to give an image of some Swedish teenagers opinions about Islam. I have also done research on how the Swedish school depicts Islam and how the media in Sweden and other western countries describe Islam and Muslims. I have come to the conclusion that the media do not give a positive image of Muslims and their religion. One the contrary, Muslims are talked about in relation to negative subjects. This is an image that seems to have influenced how young people in Sweden look at Muslims.I have handed out a questionnaire at schools in Kalmar and Jönköping, Sweden.

Vår produktion består av en speltidning, i både digital och tryckt form, som kretsar runt ett community av skribenter och forumiter. Målet var att skapa en oberoende tidning med fokus på åsikter och upplevelser, där majoriteten av det redaktionella materialet var skrivet av läsare.

Social media has recently expanded dramatically, as more people are using different media such as blogs, Facebook and Twitter, to express their opinions. This increases the possibilities to spread information and an unclear legal regulation in this area can create adverse consequences. Freedom of expression is a constitutional right, which forms an important cornerstone of a democratic society. Public employees? freedom of communication means that they can submit information to the media, without fear of reprisals from the authorities.

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.
