In this essay I analyze Karin Boye?s first novel, Astarte, focusing on her views concerning norms,ideals and female liberation. The novel is written in a tone of irony, allowing for many of thecharacters to be viewed as caricatures. The theories and methods I use are drawn from genderstudies and queer theory. Queer theorist Judith Butler, and the concepts of performativity, interpellation, genealogy and the heterosexual matrix, are of central importance for my analysis.

Bakgrund och problem: Revisionsplikten avskaffades 1 november 2010 vilket betyder att mindre aktiebolag som uppfyller vissa kriterier inte längre behöver anställa en revisor. Enligt uppgifter från Bolagsverket är det en stor majoritet av de äldre aktiebolagen som väljer att behålla sin revisor medan det hos de nyregistrerade aktiebolagen är vanligare att inte ha en revisor.Syfte: Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka vilka faktorer som är avgörande för mindre aktiebolag i valet att ha en revisor. Vi ska även undersöka vilka fördelar och nackdelar de mindre aktiebolagen ser med revision och om synen varierar beroende på om det är ett bolag som registrerades innan eller efter avskaffandet av revisionsplikten.Metod: I studien används en kvalitativ metod i form av intervjuer. Personliga intervjuer genomfördes med sju olika mindre aktiebolag.Resultat och slutsats: Samtliga bolag är allmänt positiva till avskaffandet av revisionsplikten och menar att majoriteten av mindre aktiebolag inte har ett behov av en revisor. Majoriteten av bolagen anser att revision är en bra kvalitetsgaranti gentemot ett bolags intressenter.

Since the 1990?s the Swedish school system has undergone major and recurring structural reforms. Two of the most comprehensive changes has been the shift of primary schools as an integral part of the welfare state to the responsibility of the municipalities as well as the introduction of free school choice for the students. Through two months of participant observations and semi-structured interviews this thesis seeks to answer the question of how these reforms has come to effect the work of teachers in a medium sized public school in a small municipality in the outskirts of Stockholm. Earlier research has shown that public schools in socio-economically vulnerable areas are disadvantaged due to the reformation of the school system (Beach & Sernhede, 2011; Östh, Andersson, & Malmberg, 2013).

This theisis aims to expand the understanding of how the termination of Östran local editorial staff is effecting the municipality politics and organisation orientated substance of the rivale newspaper Barometern when it becomes a monopoly news paper. I examine if the hypothesis in consideration of the press investigation of 1972 will occur through a quantitative analysis of selected articles in Barometern and Östran in 2010 and 2014. I examine if the information will be insufficient, if it will be a monopoly of opinion formation, if the investigative journalism will be suffering and if the group communication will be worse.With this analysis it becomes clear that the news paper Barometern cover less of the municipality politics and organisation orientated substance when it is a competive news paper. My analysis shows us that the information will not be insufficient, it will not be a monopoly of opinion formation, the investigative journalism will not be suffering and the group communication will be worse when Östrans local editorial staff is terminated. .

During the last years a discussion has emerged around problems with Swedish state boards trying to influence the public opinion and even political bodies through different kind of information efforts. Several observers inside and outside the academy have studied how state boards increasingly use information as an instrument and also how political bodies increasingly have given such instructions to state boards. This essay put those studies into the context of both information political history and previous theoretical interpretations in that field of research.The analytical tool consists of four ideal typical ways ('state opinions') to arrange relations between the state and the citizen. Some critics focus on problems with too much political steering and how political majorities uses state boards to spread ideological propaganda. Others highlight problems with autonomy and bureaucratic organizations taking initiatives by themselves to spread normative information.

Revisorers roll har utvecklats genom tiden, från att ta hand om bolagets räkenskaper och gekonsulttjänster till sina kunder till att idag endast granska väsentliga poster och företagetstransaktioner samt hitta felaktigheter i redovisningen. Far menar med revision att revisorn som enoberoende part granskar bolagets årsredovisning och bokslut i syfte att fastställa omredovisningen ger en rättvisande bild av företaget till externa intressenter såsom investerare,banker etc.Syftet med undersökningen är att undersöka hur förväntningsgapet mellan småföretagare ochrevisorer ser ut. Vi har även tänkt ge förslag på hur förväntningsgapet kan minska samt få enuppfattning om vad det var som förorsakade förväntningsgapet, som till slut kan hjälpa oss attuppnå en bättre förståelse på problematiken. För att åstadkomma syftet med uppsatsen har vigenomfört kvalitativa intervjuer med tre revisorer och två ägare till två småföretag.Vår slutsats är att småföretag har bristande kunskap om vad revisorers uppgift och roll innebär.Exempel på deras bristande kunskap är att revisorn kan allting och löser alla företags ekonomiskaproblem, samt att revisorn kan samtidigt bokföra och revidera företagets räkenskaper. Det finnsflera saker som kan anses ha påverkan på förväntningsgapets uppkomst.
