As a Swedish landscape architecture student living in Australia for five years, I have often wondered if my memories and my associations with the landscape and the nature in Sweden, are the same as other Swedish people living in Melbourne. Most of the Swedish people who live here in Melbourne remember and associate Sweden?s nature and landscape with where they grew up or where they used to live. The plants that most of the Swedish people I asked missed from Sweden were associated to special feelings or activities. The general type of landscape people remember from Sweden is that of a landscape covered in forests, which you can walk freely through. With these memories as a foundation and with inspiration from the Swedish landscape architect Thorbjörn Anderson?s way of creating places, by letting a few strong changes play against the existing elements,2 but also with consideration of the climate and the severe shortage of water that is current in Melbourne, will I create a design concept for the garden surrounding the Swedish Church in Melbourne. A design concept that will generate memories and associations to Swedish landscapes..

Sammanfattning För tillfället råder en stor osäkerhet inom lökodlingen i såväl Sverige som Finland på grund av att bekämpningsmedlen Stomp och Totril, som är huvudherbicider i lökodlingen, kommer att förbjudas senast 2014. Det råder också en viss osäkerhet på grund av de låga prisnivåerna på lök de senaste åren. De låga priserna beror till största delen på att importerad lök i hög utsträckning har tagit sig in främst på den svenska marknaden. De finländska odlarna känner inte av denna press från importen fullt lika mycket eftersom de finländska konsumenterna, i högre utsträckning än de svenska, väljer att köpa inhemska produkter trots att de är dyrare. Även Åland har analyserats särskilt i denna studie eftersom en tredjedel av den finländska lökodlingen finns här och löken, tillsammans med chipspotatisen, är den mest betydande grödan på Åland. Mot bakgrund av detta syftar denna studie till att undersöka hur lökodlarna ser på den nuvarande situationen och framtiden för lökodlingen i de olika länderna.

Soybean meal from South America is the most common protein feed used for animal production in Sweden. Production of soybean has negative effects on the environment and the transports from South America to Sweden causes considerable CO2 emissions. Therefore it is a growing interest in locally produced protein feed in Sweden. Protein feeds that are possible to grow in Sweden are rapeseed, peas, faba beans and lupins. Those are adapted to the Nordic climate and are perfect to grow in cereal rotations.

Today is one of the reasons that Sweden works for improved public health to reduce the incidence of the most common diseases. The eleven objectives are the key determinants of public health work and are thus assigned as the common positions for players to work towards the same goal. The purpose of this study was to examine which aspects of health promotion in Sweden examined in the scientific articles. The method is a literature review based on scientific articles. Searches have been conducted in the databases SAGE Journals Online, ASSIA and Cinahl.

The main aim of this study is to examine the development policies of Sweden and the European Union from a postcolonial perspective. Sweden and the European Union are increasingly coming to be viewed as normative powers rather than military powers. So how does the colonial past of the western societies affect the policies of today? Are there any signs of the power structures of the past, and if so, how are these power structures manifested in the development policies of today? Since both Sweden and the European Union have come to be viewed as normative powers they are compared with each other to highlight their similarities and differences. The results of the study shows that both Sweden and the European Union can be seen as carriers of western values and interests.

This present study is a result of a research that I made . My purpose is to find out how the debate about inclusion looked like back in the history. My research was about the view we had absolut inclusion in the history, I also made some interviewes among teachers and students in the schools of today. I wanted to se their views about inclusion today and I wanted to know their opinions about inclusion. Did the students and the teachers have prejudice against other students with functional disabilities as Down syndrom and blindness? What was their thoughts about inclusion of students with differents functional disabilities?One more task I had with this study I made was to raise another debate about inclusion .! Keywords: Inclusion and funtional disabilities.

This essay speaks about the medial coverage made by the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter. The periods examined are the two weeks before the election day (5 September ? 19 September 2010). The purpose of our study is to find out if the newspaper was neutral and did not write in favour of any political party or political block in the newssection. After the elections in Sweden 2010 there have been discussions about the medias in the country being biased, and claims have been made that the news have been written in favour of a certain political party or a bloc.

Right-wing populism has through the past decades flourished in several countries in Europe. Research has shown that right-wing populism is, with its political starting point in ?the people?, focusing on the majority and is sometimes excluding the minorities from the politics. Since human rights regulations are mainly a protection of minority rights, the aim is to examine if the politics of the Sweden Democrats, as a case of a growing right-wing populist party, is a threat to human rights and in that case, in what respects. The thesis is supposed to answer the question in what respects the politics of the Sweden Democrats contravene with the European Convention?s protection of minority rights.

Samemas hemområde kallas för Sapmi och sträcker sig från Kolahalvön genom den nordliga delen av finska Lappland och de nordliga delarna av Sverige till nord Norges atlantkust Inom detta område har den samiska kulturen sitt starkaste fäste. Renskötseln i Norden skiljer sig åt mellan länderna på flera punkter. Den norska renskötseln är till exempel den betrogenaste och utgörs av flera olika distrikt och i vissa delar av landet ligger sommarbetesmarkerna vid kusten och vinterbetesmarkerna i inlandet, medan det kan vara motsatta förhållandena i andra delar av landet. I Sverige kan man dela upp renskötseln i följande.tre former: den som bedrivs av fj. ällsamebyar, skogssamebyar och av koncessionssamebyar.

It often occurs that the spirit regarding the future as a conservator is rather pessimistic. Howcome that there are so few employed conservators, when the need for conservation obviouslyis big? What kind of changes is needed for a better status regarding the conservation?This thesis concerns the development of the field of conservation in Sweden. What havehappened, what will happen and, particularly, what should happen? The information wasgathered from literature studies and interviews during the spring of 2010.

Cameraria ohridella, the chest-nut leaf miner, is a new pest in Sweden. These moths make leaf mines on chest-nut trees, preferably on Aesculus hippocastanum, which results in brown blotches on the foliage and early loss of leaves. Since the first observation in Macedonia in 1985 it has spread rapidly through Europe. The moth arrived in Sweden in 2003 when it was observed in Malmö and surrounding areas. In this paper a literature study describes the morphology and life cycle of the chest-nut leaf miner. Further more a test with pheromone traps examining the number of generations in Sweden is shown.

I uppsatsen undersöker jag hur skurkarna i Disneys tecknade långfilmer framställs visuellt, vilka attribut som Dinsey använder sig av för att visa att någon är ond. Observationerna utförs på 39 stycken Disneyskurkar och det insamlade materialet blir belyst ur Patti Bellantonis färgteori och Karin Johannissons texter om fysionomi. I uppsatsen kommer jag fram till att det finns återkommande visuella utmärkande egenskaper som till exempel vissa ansiktsdrag, klädval och färger som skaparna av Disney använder sig av för att porträttera en ond karaktär och bl.a. ett oattraktivt utseende verkar vara sammankopplat med ondska. En potentiell följd av att lyfta fram särskilda fysiska attribut som onda är att människor som i realitet ser ut så kan särbehandlas negativt..

Animal welfare during transport has for a long time been a problem around the world. Many animals are transported in stressful environments for slaughter. Even during Roman and Antiquity times wild animals were transported from Africa to the amusement parks in Rome. The aim of our work was to compare how well Sweden and Denmark are performing their inspections of transports of cattle and pigs for slaughter. Today, overloaded transports and poor treatment is not uncommon in Europe and every year 22 million animals are transported between countries.

Denna uppsats tar sitt avstamp i de nya svenska kursplanerna för religionskunskap som trädde i kraft år 2011. Här fick kristendomen behålla sin särställning gentemot de andra världsreligionerna trots att skolverkets förslag såg annorlunda ut. Blickar man utanför Sveriges gränser kan man se att trots att landet delar en stor del av sin utveckling med Finland och Norge finns det stora skillnader i religionsundervisningen. Uppsatsens syftar således till att jämföra de tre ländernas kursplaner i religionskunskap för grundskolan och gymnasiet med fokus på kristendomens ställning och det pluralistiska samhället. Här blir frågan om ländernas religiösa situationer (i denna uppsats går detta under benämningen religiösa kartor) central.
