The purpose of this study was to examine the ways in which the Swedish lifestyle magazine VeckoRevyn construct the sex and love Relations of bi- and homosexuals. We analyzed 22 unique texts in magazines, from 2009 to 2014, in order to get a result as current as possible.To represent the magazine overall we have selected texts from various parts of the magazine. With a critical discourse analysis and through relevant and significant theories and perspectives such as social constructionism and heteronormativity, we found that VeckoRevyn represent sex and love Relations of bi- and homosexuals through four discourses.The outcome of our study shows that VeckoRevyn only represent a limited part of bi- and homosexuals sex and love Relations. In the analysed texts bi- and homosexuals are forced to ?come out of the closet? repeatedly and their sexual Relations are rarely represented.

The purpose of this thesis is to widen and deepen the discussion concerning Public Relations consultants.

Titel: IR ? förkortad information som ingen förstår?Författare: Louise Davidson & Johan RoothHandledare: Britt BörjessonSidantal: 49 sidor exklusive bilagorKurs: Examensarbete i medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap, Institutionen för journalistik och masskommunikation, Göteborgs universitetTermin: Vårterminen 2008, period 2Syfte: Syftet är att utvärdera Solbergs kunders IR webbplatser utifrån ett användarperspektiv. Med fokus på innehåll, logik/struktur och tillfredställelseMetod: Kvalitativ metod, användbarhetstester med personliga intervjuerMaterial: Användbarhetstester och efterföljande intervjuer med fem test- och intervjupersonerHuvudresultat: Vårt resultat visar att det största problemet med Investor Relations webbplatser inte handlar om strukturen eller logiken på sidan. Det är inte heller något större fel på det innehåll som presenteras. Utan det är förståelsen för Investor Relations som bidrar till att sidans effektivitet och tillfredställelse inte är så hög.

Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att genomföra en deskriptiv studie och skapa djupare förståelse för hur svenska, nyligen börsnoterade medicinteknikföretag arbetar med Investor Relations och hur detta arbete återspeglas i en effektiv aktiemarknad. Samt att undersöka hur de utvärderar effekterna av sin IR-verksamhet.Metod: Genom en kvalitativ studie söker denna uppsats svar i intervjuer med börsnoterade medicintekniska företag, samt i teorier som behandlat möjligheten för rationella investeringar och utformningen av en effektiv marknad.Resultat: Den kapitalkrävande bransch som medicinsk teknik utgör har troligen påverkan på hur kommunikationen och informationsspridningen är utformad då alla respondenterna använder Investor Relations på liknande sätt. Företagen själva anser att det företag som lyckas övertyga investerare om att deras produkter har störst samhällsnytta även kommer att vinna kampen om kapitalet. Trots hård konkurrens om kapital och förståelsen över vikten av Investor Relations görs inga omfattande utvärderingar av arbetet. Anledningen är främst att det tar för mycket tid och att tillvägagångssätten är diffusa.

Media has power and impact. It is therefore important for managers to be able to handle media storms when they arise. If not, the brand can be affected negatively. It is managers who should learn to handle media storms because the managers constitute an important part of the external face of the company. Because it is managers who should learn to handle media storms it is interesting to study how media storms should be handled from a theoretical management-perspective.

Investor Relations is a function used by companies to compete for capital by creating Relations with investors. It is a young function, earlier practiced by the same people who had responsible for exercising the Public Relations.Investor Relations has evolved a great deal lately but there are still no concrete theories behind the function. The aim though is clear and there are literature explaining how to practice the different parts. The most research within Investor Relations uses the theory of Relationship Marketing. Lately the two authors Hägg and Preiholt have started to examine what they call Financial Marketing since Investor Relations is about Relations between actors on financial markets primarily.In this paper, we examine the aspect of information in Investor Relations.

This thesis examines the power of developing countries within the World Trade Organization (WTO). The research question is if there is a change in the power Relations between developing countries and developed countries from the establishment of the WTO in 1995 and until mid 2006, and if so, why this change is taking place? The thesis has its theoretical starting-point within regime theory and views it from a critical theoretical perspective. A multidimensional why of dealing with the concept of power is being used to answer if there is a change in the power Relations? The conclusion is that there is a small change in the power Relations and that the developing countries are gaining more, but limited power.

AbstractThe development of new economies from the industrial revolution to the information society of today has led to an increase in goods, services and information technology. It has also affected the way that organizations are formed and shown that organizations transform more and more into networks. This has left an impact on the concept of marketing and an increase in the handling of internal Relations within companies. The marketing concept has developed from the 4P:s, price, place, product and promotion, to Relations marketing as a new perspective.This study focuses on a description of Relations marketing in medium - sized advertising agencies. The advertising business has a long history of close customer Relations and advertising agencies strongly depend on new customers.
