HollÀndares emigration till Sverige: "Vi kommer alltid att vara immigranter"

Syftet med denna uppsats Àr att undersöka kontinuitet och förÀndring i hollÀndares identitet(er) nÀr de flyttar till Sverige. Teorier kring identitet och förÀndring/förhandling appliceras pÄ empiri som framkommer ur intervjuer med fyra hollÀndska informanter som har emigrerat till Sverige. Resultatet visar att identitet Àr nÄgot som informanterna anser vara relativt konstant under livets gÄng vad gÀller personlighet, karaktÀrsdrag och nationalitet. Dock Àr de överens om att identitetsförÀndringar sker beroende pÄ Älder och nya livsroller som exempelvis nÀr man blir företagare eller förÀlder. HollÀndare och svenskar tycks vara sÄ lika vad gÀller utseende att myndigheter tror att Àven sociala, ekonomiska och politiska system liknar de svenska systemen.

Skolledares IT-anvÀndning : i ett komplext sammanhang

TillgÀnglighet handlar om rÀtten att kunna delta. Att kunna utöva sina medborgerliga rÀttigheter och skyldigheter. Att ha samma möjligheter som alla andra. TillgÀnglighet Àr dÀrmed en frÄga om respekt. I ett otillgÀngligt samhÀlle respekteras inte den grundlÀggande principen om allas lika vÀrde.

Helgdagens helgd i ett sekulariserat samhÀlle Historisk utveckling - nutida tillÀmpning

In this study I try to answer the question what to consider when teaching about identity andreligious identity in Religious Studies at Upper Secondary Schools in Sweden. This inquiry isbased on the fact that the latest Program manuals for upper secondary school, GY11, instructsthe teachers to talk about identity and religion, while in the Curriculum for upper secondaryscool, Lpf 94, as well as the latest curriculum, SKOLFS 2011, the idea of identity seemslinked with ethnicity.With this in mind I want to clarify what might be meant with the concept of identity. Byreferring to several different identity theories I propose to illustrate the complexity of theconcept. I study gender, queer and postcolonial theory as well as different aspects of classstructure and commodification of identity, all through the perspective of intersectionality.Intersectionality is not a theory as such but a method of studying various perspectives of anissue. It is an analytical praxis of using several angles of investigation and explanationtogether, all phrased with the background of the question of power.

Att konsumera kvinnlighet : representation och identifikation i damernas vÀrld

Uppsatsen behandlar ur ett genusperspektiv konsumtionens delaktighet i individens identitetsskapande, dÀr fokus ligger pÄ att pÄvisa hur begreppet kvinnlighet till stor del konstitueras utifrÄn en definition given av konsumtionssamhÀllet. Med Norman Faircloughs kritiska diskursanalys som verktyg görs en tematisk analys av diskurser gÀllande kvinnors kropp, stilskapande och sexualitet i ett material bestÄende av konsumtionsrelaterade mode- och skönhetsartiklar som hÀmtas frÄn fyra svenska kvinnotidningar som riktar sig till skilda Äldersgrupper; julia, Silikon, amelia och tara. HÀr tydliggörs hur man, nÀr man talar om kvinnan i materialet, hela tiden Àr positionerad inom en konsumtionsdiskurs sÄvÀl verbalt som visuellt. Studien syftar Àven till att sÀtta detta kommersiella kvinnoideal i relation till diskussioner om genus som lyfts fram av den postmoderna feminismen samt ur ett vidare perspektiv peka pÄ konsekvenser som tidningarnas representationer har pÄ kvinnors vardag, dÄ studien pÄvisar deras medverkan i reproduktionen av en patriarkal och ojÀmlik samhÀllsordning. Avslutningsvis diskuteras konsumtionssamhÀllets objektiva stÀllning samt konsumismens betydelse för den moderna kvinnorollen historiskt och nutida sett..

Melankoli och ironi : Strategier för hÄllbar utveckling

The purpose of this study is to show what melancholy and irony in my poems express and what techniques that are used to accomplish these effects. Many theorists, among them Sigmund Freud and Julia Kristeva, characterize melancholy as an experience of loss, and therefore one of my questions is what kind of losses appear in my poetry. In search for an answer I analyze the texts from both a psychoanalytic and a sociological point of view. In the latter perspective I discuss the postmodern society using concepts from contemporary thinkers like Zygmunt Bauman, Fredric Jameson and Jean Baudrillard. Finally, I also examine if melancholy has an influence on the form of the poems.

The study deals with postmodern constructivism which is explaining that the normalization and deviances are constantly changing, both depending on time and context. The results and analysis of this study are presented under three main headings that are related to the study's research questions.

Gotik, rock och genus : En intermedial studie om den gotiska litteraturens inverkan pÄ tre av rockgruppen The Cures musikvideor

Denna uppsats undersöker vilka litterÀra gotiska motiv och begrepp som rockbandet The Cure anvÀnder sig av i sin visuella estetik, nÀrmare bestÀmt i tre av deras musikvideor: "Charlotte Sometimes (1981), "The Lovecats" (1983) och "Lullaby" (1989). Analysen och undersökningen utgÄr frÄn teorier kring semiotisk bildanalys samt ett intermedialt perspektiv dÀr det tidigare skrivna ordet transformeras till visuella bilder. Andra teoretiska inriktningar som anvÀnds i denna text Àr bland annat genusteorier kring receptionen av bilder samt ett psykoanalytiskt perspektiv dÀr frÀmst det undermedvetnas funktion inom den litterÀra texten granskas. Undersökningen kring och om gotiken utgÄr ifrÄn Mattias Fyhr definition av den litterÀra gotikens kÀnnetecken. Undersökningen visar att The Cure anvÀnder sig av typiska gotiska motiv och könsstereotyper i sin visuella estetik men anpassar samt omvandlar gotikens uttryckssÀtt till att fungera i en postmodern kontext.

Naturskildringen i ett samhÀllsperspektiv ? en ekokritisk studie av Gösta Berlings saga och HÀndelser vid vatten

The purpose of this master thesis is to examine how the relationship between humans and nature is expressed in the imaginative literature. My aim is to identify ideological reproductions in the analyzed works. Therefore I have chosen one work from late 19th century and one from late 20th century. This makes it possible to examine the contextual anchorage of the found ideological expressions. The study?s theoretical framework is primarily based on ecocriticism, and especially on Greg Garrard?s and Kate Soper?s thoughts.

Riskminimering i förÀldrasamverkan

The way we socialize today is radically different from how it was only twenty years ago. Since the arrival of the Internet more and more of what we know about the lives of our friends comes from text-based social networks, or blogs. This means that we all, more or less, have become authors of our own life stories and that the reality we live in have become fictionalized. In this paper I explore what effects this postmodern process of dissolving boundaries has had on the autobiographical genre, where the line between fiction and reality is traditionally stressed. By analysing Carina Rydberg?s (b.

Buddhismen i greppet av nationalism, islamofobi och vÄld : En analys av den burmesiska theravadamunken Ashin Wirathus uttalanden

In the years between 2012 and 2014, Burma has been shaken by waves of violence against Muslims which has resulted in destroyed mosques and shops, at least 140 000 displaced and 200 killed persons. The person who is said to lay behind this violence is the Burmese Theravada monk Ashin Wirathu. Being the founder and leader of the radical Buddhist movement 969, he has been accused of indirectly motivating violence against Muslims and has been portrayed with titles such as ?The face of buddhist terror?. This essay investigates the relation between Wirathu and the anti-Muslim violence by applying the method of content analysis on a speech of him.

Överskridanden : En tematisk studie av verklighetsproblematiken i Karl Ove KnausgĂ„rds Min kamp 1-6

The award-winning Norwegian novelist Karl Ove KnausgÄrd achieved great success with his latest book, Min kamp. Both commercially and critically, the novel was praised for its seemingly successful attempt to transcend the boundary between fiction and real life. Focusing on the auto-fictional narrator?s struggle to balance his daily life with his ever so demanding aesthetic ambitions, the novel gives high-detail descriptions of the most basic day-to-day chores, intimately mixed with philosophical reflections on topics such as painting, literature and postmodern civilisation.This essay proposes an alternative perspective on the realism of the novel. Instead of relying on a correspondence theoretical view, which highlights the level of correspondence of a particular representation with reality, I seek, inspired by Martin Heidegger?s thoughts on works of art, to trace a poetics which sees the verity in a work of art as the ?unconcealment? of the world, or the coming-to-being of objects.

VÄrt liv, vÄr fritid, vÄra förebilder, vÄr framtid och dÀr vi bor

Few studies enlighten the problem associated with the dialectical relationship between adults and adolescents and how that affects the construction of identity for adolescent?s, in relation to two areas that are closely bordering to each other but differs socioeconomically whereas one area is much weaker on resources than the other. These two areas is Högberget and HaganÀs, which are situated in a larger city in Sweden.For us to be able to enlighten this problem we have chosen to use an inductive research approach so that we can explain how adolescents construct their identity and how the organized spare time, in addition with the influence of adults, impacts on adolescents construction of their identity.Therefore we have used interviews as method, both group and individual, so it can regulate which theories that influence our study. The two theories that wires through the entire study are firstly Peter L. Bergman and Thomas Luckmanns theory on social construction where the idea is that the human being is an active social being that constructs its own reality.

Arkivens dag : En bildande erfarenhet eller marknadsföring?

Archives Day is celebrated in Sweden on the second Saturday of November every year since 1998. The aim of this study is to examine how and why Archives Day is celebrated at five archives in the Stockholm region.My empirical material consists mainly of semi-structured interviews with archivists at five archival institutions in the Stockholm region. I have chosen to only interview archivists and not any visitors due to the time con-straints and the scope of the thesis. I have also examined how the goals stated in a government report are carried out in the work with Archives Day.The theoretical framework of the investigation is gathered from educational theory as well as archival theo-ry. For the educational approach I have used John Dewey?s theory of what makes an experience educational to examine whether Archives Day is an educational experience or not.

Snille och smak och mord: En litteratursociologisk studie av Nobelpriset och det högkulturella i Karin Alvtegens Skugga

This master thesis deals with the Nobel Prize and highbrow culture as portrayed in Karin Alvtegen?s Skugga. From a sociology of literature perspective, it aims to analyze how these highbrow themes can be understood in relation to Alvtegen?s position in the literary field as a lowbrow crime novelist. The method used is hermeneutic, and the analysis is based on two theoretical models: Pierre Bourdieu?s cultural sociology, and the postmodern tradition where the distinction high/low and its traditional hierarchy is said to be decomposed.
