Implementering av ESG-kriterier i investeringspraxis : En studie om venture capital-företag i Sverige
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to examine how venture capitalists implement ESG issues internally, as well as before the investment decision and during the investment period.Theoretical framework: The theoretical framework consists of previous studies that identify different driving forces behind the work of the ESG and present a number of different strategies for implementing ESG issues in the investment process.Method: This study aims at providing an understanding of a phenomenon which implies an inductive approach. This thesis applies a qualitative method of data collection in the form of semi-structured interviews. The sample in this study consists of venture capital companies that were members of the SVCA (Swedish Venture Capital Association) during the time of the survey, 2015.Result: The empirical findings in this thesis consist of a presentation of the data that was generated from eleven interviews conducted with eleven different investors in the venture capital sector.Conclusion: This study indicates a lack of written Policies regarding internal work with ESG-issues which were offset by the application of the "unwritten" Policies. Implementation of ESG-issues during the pre-investment phase was dominated by an avoidance of investments in sectors which lead to a negative impact on society. During the post-investment phase ESG-issues was integrated by monitoring the portfolio companies' operations.
Kulturbegreppet i skapandet av nya medborgare : En uppsats om integrationsprocesser och diskurser i det sena 1900-talets Sverige
In this thesis the author has through a discourse analysis examined how the concept of culture has been used in the discourse of integration during the late twentieth century in Sweden. The author argues that the integration of immigrating people has been the fundamental method in creating Swedish citizens within the immigrant communities. In this discourse the concept ?culture? has been a constant recurring way of explaining differences among the immigrants towards ?ethnic swedes? and Swedish way of life and establishing difficulties in performing integration outside of governmental Policies. When looked upon in terms of discourse the integration process is the possibilities, intents and interests and the actual creation i.e.

Den demokratiska döden : En motivstudie av döden i Vilhelm Mobergs Din stund på jorden och Jan Fridegårds Torntuppen
The purpose of this paper is to view Karlstad Municipality and their financial support to non-profit organizations within equestrian sports. Despite the varying representatives of various equestrian sports in Karlstad, there seems to be a single beneficiary within the sport when it comes to financial support from the municipality. The Policies and plans concerning cultural development are directly compared to the Karlstad Municipality and its contribution to these organizations within equestrian sports. Through interviews and reports I have studied the process of financial support from the Karlstad municipality using an intersectionality theory based on Nina Lykkes guide on gender studies and feminist theory. Pierre Bourdieu?s theories on field, habitus and capital are also used as a method to enhance the understanding of equestrian sports and its role in modern Swedish society. The conclusion is that the Karlstad Municipality is, for a several of reasons, promoting non-profit organizations within equestrian sports, which are operating as riding schools.
Vad styr den kommunala integrationspolitiken? En jämförande studie i fem skånska kommuner
This paper analyzes governance of cultural and ethnic integration. The study has a comparative perspective between five municipalities in Skåne. One aim in this thesis is to clearify the ratio between the state and municipal authority and how municipalities exercise their autonomy. I analyze the advantages and disadvantages in different governance methods linked to how the municipalities are working in practice and what problem the integration policy is intended to eliminate. I also resolve the influence of officials and citizens in the policy process.My conclusion is that direct ruling to a large extent is limited by indirect control.
COP15 - Jakten efter ett ambitiöst och globalt klimatavtal. -Vad motiverar Danmark att verka för ambitiösa bindande klimatmål?
Until recently the Danish government was hesitant about whether investments in climate and energy Policies were the right strategy for Denmark. Today the Danish government argues that during the forthcoming climate conference in Copenhagen in 2009 (COP15), the world's countries must agree upon ambitious climate objectives. Denmark is together with EU-27 aiming at an ambitious climate agreement. This thesis intends to contribute with an understanding of why Denmark, both politically and economically, invests profound resources into committing the world's countries to a climate agreement. The study uses both a neoliberal institutionalism and a constructivist theory in analyzing the Danish engagement.

Intäktsredovisning i tjänsteföretag ? En studie över olikheterna i intäktsredovisningen för onoterade tjänsteföretag med liknande tjänster
Laws, regulations and generally accepted accounting principles hold options on how companies should recognize revenue. Generally accepted accounting principles are determined by standard-setting bodies as the Accounting Standards Board and the Financial Supervisory Authority, which is influenced by international standard-setting bodies as the IASB. Service revenue is generally recognized when performance is completed, but there are variations in when a performance is considered complete. The different accounting options available create difficulties in comparing companies over time and between companies, which in turn creates difficulties to achieve a true and fair view. By clarifying what methods and principles in accounting for service income the unlisted companies in Sweden are using and why these differences exist, we have been able to study how the comparability and the true and fair view is affected by these differences.
Jakten på kulturplanering. En textanalytisk studie av instrumentell kulturpolitik i Göteborg.
The aim of this study is to explore local cultural policy documents in the municipality of Gothenburg Sweden, and, more specifically, to investigate the concepts of cultural planning and instrumental cultural policy. Cultural planning is in this thesis seen as a result of an instrumental view of cultural policy. The theoretical framework consists of the theories of Danish cultural policy researcher Dorte Skot-Hansen. She describes cultural policy in urban areas as founded in motives such as economy, social issues, entertaining and enlightenment. A qualitative text analysis is performed in order to see if the purpose of the cultural Policies is to focus on cultural planning as formulated in the document Kulturpolitisk strategi ? version 1.0, adopted by the city council in 1998.
Intäktsredovisning i tjänsteföretag ? En studie över olikheterna i intäktsredovisningen för onoterade tjänsteföretag med liknande tjänster
Laws, regulations and generally accepted accounting principles hold options on
how companies should recognize revenue. Generally accepted accounting
principles are determined by standard-setting bodies as the Accounting
Standards Board and the Financial Supervisory Authority, which is influenced by
international standard-setting bodies as the IASB. Service revenue is generally
recognized when performance is completed, but there are variations in when a
performance is considered complete. The different accounting options available
create difficulties in comparing companies over time and between companies,
which in turn creates difficulties to achieve a true and fair view.
By clarifying what methods and principles in accounting for service income the
unlisted companies in Sweden are using and why these differences exist, we have
been able to study how the comparability and the true and fair view is affected
by these differences. The aim was to study the underlying factors that
companies do their financial report differently.
Det finns inget beständigt förutom förändring : En fallstudie om intern kontroll
Bakgrund: Inom offentlig verksamhet uppmärksammas emellanåt skandaler med mutor, bestickning och andra oegentligheter. Många organisationer lägger därför idag stort fokus på den interna kontrollen. För att den interna kontrollen ska uppnå full effekt behövs bra styrdokument. Vi finner det därför intressant att studera Policies och riktlinjer avseende intern kontroll inom offentlig verksamhet. Syfte: Rapportens syfte är att studera hur Policies för intern kontroll i Uddevalla kommun ser ut samt studera hur man arbetar med riktlinjerna inom olika nivåer av kommunen. Metod/genomförande: Semistrukturerade intervjuer är grunden till vår empiri där vi valt att intervjua personer som arbetar med intern kontroll eller på annat sätt har ledande befattningar och därmed är viktiga i arbetet kring den interna kontrollen. Vi har också tagit del av dokument på kommunens hemsida och intranät för att få så stor inblick som möjligt i arbetet.
