The aim of this paper is to examine how gender roles are described in two children's books and compare the results against the curriculum Lgr11 's values. The compared books have different aims though one of the analyzed books claimed to go against the gender roles and the other one isn?t. The method of analysis is discourse analysis and deconstruction of the text by using Nikolajeva´s (2004) pattern for stereotype gender descriptions and Kåreland´s (2005) analysis of story actions based on gender representations in children's literature. The analysis of the texts shows that there are differences between how the two books characters are described depending on gender. What emerges is that in one of the books femininity is valued high but instead it lacks equality between the sexes, while in the second book the main characters are described as equal even though the other characters are described in a stereotypical way.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att belysa faktorer bakom unikt värdeskapande, när aktörernas erbjudande konvergerar. Vi har valt att utveckla ett teoretiskt ramverk utifrån de teorier som vi tycker bäst kan användas för att förklara värdeskapande. Ramverket ligger sedan till grund för den empiriska undersökning som gjorts. Intervjuer har genomförts med fyra wellpapptillverkare som agerar på den skånska marknaden samt med ett antal grossister. Vid en jämförelse mellan vårt teoretiska ramverk och den insamlade empirin (pattern matching) har vi kunnat konstatera vilka tillgångar som är mest betydelsefulla i egenskap av unika värdeskapare.
