The research on Ingmar Bergman is comprehensive, however, there is one aspect of his artistry that has been regrettably neglected ? his use of music. Music always played a huge part in Bergman?s life, and it was also a great source of inspiration. The music was a structural component in the creating process and he often referred to his films as pieces of music and his actors as musical instruments.

Sweden's government is dedicated to the goal of having a vehicle fleet that is independent of fossil fuels by 2030. Achieving these goals requires, among other things, new types of fuel that give lower net emissions of carbon dioxide. The present market includes stations offering lowlevel blends of renewable fuels in conventional diesel as well as some stations offering renewable fuels only. The purpose of this study is to survey purchasers? attitudes to the use renewable fuels in roundwood and bioenergy transport in forest- and energy companies. The study was based on qualitative interviews through a combination of face-to-face meetings and telephone interviews with each sample group. The total number of respondents was ten (10), consisting of five (5) from forest companies and five (5) from energy companies. Transport service purchasers were generally positive to renewable fuels and considered these necessary in the future.

En färsk undersökning visar att en av tre köper ny mobil vartannat år, var femte har tre tv-apparater och fler än var fjärde svensk äger en spelkonsol. Konkurrensen i hemelektronikbranschen hårdnar med den tyska kedjan Media Markts intåg i Sverige. De etablerade kedjorna får det allt tuffare och risken för utslagning ökar. Konsumenterna blir vinnarna som gagnas av lägre priser och ett större utbud. Många företag går i den fälla som innebär att de konkurrerar med låga priser, vilket ibland kan vara effektivt, men som många gånger bara betyder att man ger bort de vinster som krävs för att skapa och upprätthålla bestående fördelar gentemot konkurrenterna.

Denna studie har som syfte att undersöka hur Svenska världsarv utvecklas som besöksmål genom att identifiera och kartlägga strategier inom attraktivitet, marknadsföring och service samt huruvida andra åtgärder genomförs för att attrahera besökare.Tidigare forskning kring utveckling av Svenska världsarv har visat sig vara knapphändig då världsarv i Sverige är en förhållandevis modern företeelse, därav skildrar detta examensarbete besöksverksamheten hos världsarven i deras olika faser av utvecklingsprocessen. För att ge en grundläggande bild av studiens fokusområden beskrivs geografiska perspektiv och begrepp, strategier för utveckling av världsarv samt turismutveckling.Urvalet av undersökningens sju medverkande världsarv är baserat på geografiskt läge då vi vill ha med svenska världsarv från norr till syd och öst till väst. Sex av de utvalda har kultur som grundvärde och ett är naturarv. De utvalda är Drottningholms slott, Falun, Gammelstads kyrkstad, Grimeton radiostation, Hansestaden Visby, Höga kusten/ Kvarkens skärgård och Örlogsstaden Karlskrona.Uppsatsen har ett induktivt angreppssätt där kvalitativa empiriska undersökningar genomförs i form av intervjuer med representanter från de utvalda världsarven som kompletteras med innehållsanalyser av världsarvens förvaltningsplaner, handlingsplaner eller liknande dokument med direktiv för besök och turism.Resultat från insamlad data visar att världsarven använder sig av liknande strategier. De utvecklar sin besöksverksamhet och attraktionskraft genom att erbjuda omfattande och personlig service samt marknadsföra sig själva och orten som att de erbjuder något unikt och autentiskt som endast kan upplevas på denna plats.

The aim of this Master?s thesis is to study the effects that geographical distance have on the control systems in a scattered organization and how this, ultimately, affects the employees in terms of loyalty and motivation. In order to do this, a case study has been conducted on a multinational travel group and its local branches in Thailand. The study is based on a selected number of theories focusing mainly on control systems in multinational contexts as well as on theories regarding communication and autonomy. The conclusion of the study is that geographical distance has led to a rather large autonomy for the local branches and that the headquarter to a large extent rely more on formal control.

Den aktuella studien syftade till att öka förståelsen för den betydande roll känslor har i servicemöten. En experimentell design användes där deltagare randomiserades till en av två scenariobeskrivningar, där en variabel var manipulerad. Två olika ansiktsuttryck, ett leende eller ett neutralt, användes som stimuli för att undersöka dess inverkan på kunderna. Resultaten visade att en leende servicearbetare påverkade kundernas känslor positivt, samt ökade både nöjdheten och reciprociteten jämfört med en servicearbetare med neutralt ansiktsuttryck. Dessutom utvärderade kunderna den leende servicearbetarens personliga egenskaper mer positivt jämfört med servicearbetaren med neutralt ansiktsuttryck.

The subject of this thesis is to ascertain the task of the public library in Swedish society today according to the employer, that is the State and the municipalities, and according to the public library itself. The thesis also tries to establish as to what extent these different actors share the same view of the task. To this purpose I have studied the library law, the target reports of municipal authorities and public libraries, and made interviews with public library representatives during the autumn of 2001. The particular consideration of this paper is whether the task is being described in active, culture making terms or in passive, service functionary terms. Initially, I describe the task according to the library law.

The purpose of this thesis is to describe and analyze how the mining equipment producers on a global market manage to handle the changing conditions concerning customer value. Our approach has been a comparative analysis between two different sites in order to answer the purpose. The case studies at Metso Mining have been made through interviews and visits at two geographical markets, South America and Scandinavia. The theoretical framework applied on our empirical findings is based on Blue Ocean Strategy, Customer Value and Resourced Based View. The empirical foundation is based on interviews with Metso Mining employees at Sorocaba in Brazil and Kiruna/Gällivare, Trelleborg and Staffanstorp in Sweden.

This paper illustrates the working conditions at the copper factory in Åtvidaberg during 1800-1890 from different views. The highest salary was given to the building contractor. Thereafter came in order the rust turners, the garmaker, the melter, the ore booker, the factory supervisor and the garmaker hand. Also the rest of the working conditions for different employees might differ from each other in this order. The mine workers generally earned a little less than the other workers at the factory, and especially the workers in the Bersbo mine.
