AbstractHannes Sundkvist: Uppror. En begreppshistorisk undersökning av ordet uppror och dess uppkomst i Sverige mellan åren 1525 och 1543, Uppsala universitet: Institutionen för idé- och lärdomshistoria, C-uppsats, Vårterminen, 2013. The following thesis is a conceptual historical study of the Swedish word uppror (rebellion) between the years 1525 and 1543. During this period, there occured five conflicts that in modern time have been named as rebellions. In my study I problematize the concept of rebellions and show that it is not possible to apply a contemporary definition to conflicts that erupted in the early 16th centrury. My purpose is to display how the word actually was defined during the time of the five conflicts.

För ett litet företag med begränsade resurser kan det vara svårt att marknadsföra sig till poten-tiella kunder då traditionell reklam är dyr. Tidigare forskning visar att en webbplats vara en bra möjlighet för ett mindre företag att marknadsföra sig själva och sina produkter till en la-gom kostnad. I och med Webb 2.0 har möjligheterna att marknadsföra sig och sitt företag på nätet kraftigt ökat och kunderna har här, då de inte varit nöjda med att serveras traditionell reklam, tagit på sig att sprida sina upplevelser och syner på varumärken och produkter vidare till andra för att på så sätt kunna förmedla en mer sann bild. Denna nya del av marknadsföring som Webb 2.0 har möjliggjort sker genom ?elektronisk word of mouth? (eWOM) på sociala medier, bloggar och liknande.

At its basic definition, it concerns the process of transforming all kinds of activities into games.

Cause-Related Marketing (CRM) is not a completely new phenomenon, yet an idea whose time has truly come. To have commercial organizations cooperate with charity organizations for mutual profit is a "win-win-win" situation. The company gets added value to its brand, the charity organization gets to collect more money that it otherwise wouldn't and the customer gains a feeling that he or she has contributed to the society.The purpose of this thesis is to study how a company, in practice, works with CRM marketing. How do they choose which charity organization to work with,what type of product is most appropriate to market with CRM and how is the CRM campaign designed? A theoretical model is then formed to answer these questions, after a thorough research of relevant theory on the subject.

Frågeställningar: Vilken image vill småortshotellen förmedla?Vilka samarbetsformer har småortshotellen?Vilka underliggande betydelser förmedlar småortshotellen?

Företag inom handel är underrepresenterade i litteratur kring Event Marketing. Kommunikationsverktyget som erbjuder interaktion tilltalar dagens upplevelsesökande konsumenter. Event Marketing som verktyg är i sin tur underrepresenterat inom Brand Management. På grund av Event Marketings aktualitet i dagens samhälle borde det teoretiska gapet studeras. Uppsatsens syfte var således att undersöka hur företag inom handel använder Event Marketing för att framhålla och stärka sitt varumärke, detta med hjälp av följande frågeställningar: Hur motiverar företag inom handel användande av EM? Hur arbetar företag inom handel med att säkerställa att EM får en positiv inverkan på varumärket? Vilka särdrag kan identifieras, inom användandet av EM, för företag inom handel? Undersökningen genomfördes med ett arbetssätt liknande det abduktiva genom öppna kvalitativa intervjuer med tre företag inom handel samt tre eventbyråer.

My project is an interpretation and exploration of the book The Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino. It is a play on the swedish words for cities and beaches.

The first purpose of this thesis is to investigate if, how, and why the perceived collective identity in the town of Karlskrona has changed. Collective identities can due to their socially constructed nature change rapidly in light of new collective experiences. The reason for suspecting such a change in Karlskrona is the immense impact that the change in the global economy, according to Saskia Sassen, has on cities. By interviewing politicians and media representatives from Karlskrona the perceived identity is drawn. The second purpose of this thesis will then be to test if the identity as it is perceived by Karlskronas habitants differ from the one that town officials present through city marketing.
