This is an essay within the subject of practical theology. The main interest is baptism. The aim of this essay is to describe the baptism theology of the Church of Sweden (Svenska kyrkan) and the history of the baptism. The goal is also, with the help of qualitative research, to study the view of the baptism with the ones who choose to let their children be baptized according to the liturgy of the Swedish Church in the diocese of Härnösand. The attempt is to give the Swedish church a pattern of action and a direction based on the result of my research.

The history of rhetorics in documentary film is a long one. The French brothers Louise and Auguste Lumiére were among the first persons who produced a documentary and their work has had a big impression in the history of documentary during the 1900 century. John Grierson has been called ?the father? of documentary film. He produced films in the English speaking part of the world and he is the founder of the concept ?documentary film?.

The Telecom industry is facing a paradigm shift, where the industry is converging with Internet technologies and the market is becoming more sophisticated. This results in more demanding customers, and the need for offering more content and services with a focus on usability for the end-users. The operators are starting to loose both their strong position and revenue in the Telecom industry, due to new technology and the fact that other actors are starting to enter the market, offering new content and services. In the end, the operators have two choices, to become bit-pipe providers, and only focusing on network management, or keeping the control over their networks. The latter would mean that they block other actors who are taking parts of their revenue, e.g.

AbstractThe work will give the picture of what four- and five-year-olds know about the water cycle in nature and in the society. Is there any difference depending on whether a boy or a girl is answering? The work will as well try to describe a picture of how a pre-school could plan their work on a sustainable society, science, and increased gender equality. To answer these questions the information has been received from interviews with children and by studying pre-school?s local plan.    Earlier research on the area of water shows that it is important before working with a new topic to find out what knowledge the children already have, so that the process could be as worthwhile as possible.

Titel: Hafva vi i Norrland ett Wästindien? ? En kvantitativ, beskrivande studie om användningen av begreppet Norrland i riksmedierna Författare: Mats Andersson, Hampus Hagstedt Kurs, termin och år: Journalistik GR (c) C-uppsats HT 2014 Antal ord i uppsatsen: 10 831 Problemformulering och syfte: En förenklad bild av Norrland i mediers rapportering leder till att människor får stereotypa uppfattningar om Norrland och den negativa bilden blir grund för den framtida journalistiken. Ett användande av Norrland som etikett för hela norra halvan av Sverige leder till att hela regionen blir samma sak i läsarnas ögon, trots att det finns stora kulturella, samhälleliga och geografiska skillnader mellan de olika platserna i Norrland.Syftet med denna studie har varit att granska hur rikstidningarnas bild av begreppet Norrland ser ut i egenproducerade nyhetsartiklar. Vi klarlägger i vilka typer av nyheter begreppet Norrland förekommer och i vilken utsträckning Norrland framställs som ett problemområde i artiklar där begreppet Norrland används. Vi får svar på vilken geografisk nivå nyhetsartiklar som innehåller ordet Norrland preciseras till, hur ofta ett storstadsperspektiv används som måttstock i artiklar där Norrland används som geografisk referens och i vilken utsträckning artikelförfattare använder postkoloniala gestaltningar från orientalismen i texter där ordet Norrland ingår. Metod och material: Med kvantitativ innehållsanalys med gestaltningsteorin och frågeställningar inspirerade av orientalismen har vi undersökt nyhetsrapporteringen från och om Norrland i Sveriges fyra största dagstidningar Dagens Nyheter, Svenska Dagbladet, Expressen och Aftonbladet under åren 2005, 2009 och 2013. Huvudresultat: I Stockholmsbaserade rikstidningarnas nyhetsrapportering är stereotypisering av landsdelen Norrland mycket svår att finna. Nyckelord: Gestaltning, Norrland, Norrlänning, Orientalism, Stereotyp, Dagens Nyheter, Aftonbladet, Svenska Dagbladet, Expressen, Kvantitativ innehållsanalys, Rikstidningar..

Forestry has three main aspects to take into consideration today; economical, ecological and socio-cultural. In order to reach the broad policy goals for sustainable forest management, an increased variety of management approaches are requested. Today clear-cutting is the only method used in 96 % of the managed forests in Sweden. The Swedish National Board of Forestry has therefore initiated a project in order to investigate and develop Continuous Cover Forestry (CFF). This study is a part of this project.

Uppsala Universitet Sophie DicksenMedie- och kommunikationsvetenskap C-uppsatsAbstractTitle: Communication of gender through design -A study of shapes and colors of perfumebottles and of the fonts on their labels.(Genuskommunikation genom design -En studie av form, färg och typsnitt på parfymflaskor)Number of pages: 39 (82 including enclosures)Author: Sophie DicksenTutor: Mats LindCourse: Media- and Communication Studies CPeriod: Autumn 2006University: Division of Media and Communication, Department of information Science,Uppsala UniversityPurpose/Aim: To study whether gender is communicated through design, and if so is the case, the aim is also to see by which aspects gender is communicated.Material/Method: 40 perfumebottles, 20 for women and 20 for men has been studied, and attributes such as their shapes, colors as well as the fonts on their labels has been analyzed in search of gender differences. An art director has also been interwiewed to receive information about genderdesign from a practical wiew.Main results: There is no difference out of a gender perspective between the colors on the bottles in aspect of lightness but colors on ladieperfumes are generally more saturated and they are also more often located among yellow, orange and red shades on the color chart while perfumesbottles for men tend to consist of yellow, green and blue colors in more unsaturated versions. The results of the study of shapes showes that there are more cubes among the male perfumes than there are in the group of womensperfumes. Concidering the study of fonts does results prove that fonts on labels of male perfumes mostly belong to the most common group of fontfamilies. This compared toperfumes for ladies where the the fonts varied between the two current fontgroups of the study, and therefore are bort rare and common.

Discussing light and lighting in the night-time environment of Tensta, a Stockholm suburb built between 1962 and 1970, this thesis suggests that lighting should be designed for the outdoor environment as a whole. The feeling of safety and human perception are important components in this thesis. Starting with some comments on visual perception and how we adapt our sight to an interval of the visual input we get, makes it possible to understand that more light sometimes hides, rather than reveals, things. Amongst the dispersed houses, in the green parks of Tensta, this turns the pedestrian roads, lit by pole-top-mounted fixtures, into light tunnels in a dark surrounding. Talking about the feeling of safety I am inspired by, amongst others K. Lynch, B. Hjort and J.

Syfte och frågeställningarArbetet belyser området runt marknadsrättigheter för Svensk ishockey och Svensk fotboll. Utvecklingen har medfört att rättigheternas värdet ökat enormt de senaste 15 åren vilket bidragit till att rättigheter idag är en stor business. Den svenska rättighetsmarknaden liknar den europeiska som under de senast åren brottats med ett flertal problem som lägre intäkter för rättigheterna, konkurrens mellan TV-bolag som köpt rättigheter men inte har råd att betala m.m. Finns det likheter mellan det europeiska och den svenska rättighetsmarknaden som inte än har visat några tendenser på att minska intäktsmässigt, finns det möjlighet att förutse hur den svenska rättighetsmarknaden kommer att se ut i framtiden och vilka är faktorerna som påverkar de svenska rättighetsavtalen?MetodJag har valt att göra arbetet utifrån de aktörer som idag är aktiva på marknaden vid rättighetsförhandlingar och avtal.

Syftet med denna studie är utreda hur en ökad centralisering av Komatsu Forests reservdelslogistik kan bidra till minskad kapitalbindning samt ge större möjligheter till flexibilitet och kundanpassning i den fysiska distributionen.Idag distribuerar Komatsu Forest reservdelar från sitt centrallager till 21 stycken olika servicedepåer som drivs av dotterbolaget Komatsu Forest Sweden och som har till uppgift att leverera till alla kunder på den svenska marknaden. Servicedepåerna lagerhåller produkter där historiska data skall styra vilken mängd artiklar som skall finnas tillgängliga. Problemet idag är att de förväntade lagervolymerna inte överensstämmer med de faktiska och företaget erhåller därför extra kostnader för lagerhållning, lagerföring, transporter samt administration.Studiens teori bygger på en bearbetning av Mats Abrahamssons drivkraftmodell och empiriska data grundar sig på en enkätundersökning där ett urval ur Komatsu Forest Swedens kundpopulation fått möjligheten att delta. Enkätens frågor fokuserar på åsikter kring köpbeteenden, attityder, pris och tillgänglighet. Enkäten skickades ut via ett webbaserat system med en svarsfrekvens på cirka 35 %.

Salome is the myth of the Oriental princess who dances for her stepfather, Herod the tetrark at his banquet. He becomes so enchanted by Salome's dance that he allows her to wish for what she wants. On the advice of Queen Herodias, Salome's mother, she asks the head of prophet John on a platter. Herod is horrified, but grants Salome's desire.This is the first in a series of Salome petitions as Mark and Matthew in the New Testament. Salome has since then never ceased to fascinate artists and writers through the ages.

Problem/Bakgrund: Snedrekryteringen till universitet och högskolor, utifrån klass, har endast förändrats marginellt de senaste decennierna. Trots politiska reformer är arbetarklassen fortfarande underrepresenterad.Syfte: Syftet har varit att beskriva och förklara hur individer med arbetarklassbakgrund upplever sitt val, möte och eventuella reproduktion av högre studier. Vidare har det varit att se om de har gemensamma erfarenheter med andra i samma situation, om de har upplevt svårigheter eller fördelar i mötet med utbildning som kan härledas ur deras klassbakgrund.Uppsatsens utgångspunkter och undersökningens uppläggning: Jag har utgått från att individer med arbetarklassbakgrund, som minoritet på högre utbildning är med om upplevelser som grundas i deras sociala bakgrund. Därför har jag valt att samla in mitt empiriska material genom att göra intervjuer med tre individer ur arbetarklassen som valt att läsa vidare. Det empiriska materialet har tolkats med hjälp av teorier av Pierre Bourdieu, Thomas Ziehe och en del forskning kring klassresenärer, främst Mats Trondman.Slutsatser/resultat: Jag har funnit en del faktorer i den sociala bakgrunden som överensstämmer samt skiljer sig mot vad tidigare forskning kring klassresor diskuterat.

The theme of this thesis is citizen participation in the planning- and design process. It turns to everyone that studies landscape architecture or work as landscape architects and I hope that it can function as a ground for discussions as well as a source for inspiration. Rågsved is a suburb south of Stockholm. Just outside the centre of this suburb, a small industrial area called Snösätra, is located. In a few years time the leaseholds for the small industries will expire and the key question is: What will happen then? This is my general concern and it was the main cause for me to start this particular work. How do you attend to a place that appears like blank sheet of paper? To an empty page that can be filled with an infinite number of different formulations.

Podcast is a new audio media in Sweden and has become larger and increasingly more popular in the past few years. In line with this, companies have seen the opportunity to use this type of marketing in the new coveted media and have created a new marketing tool in the form of sponsorship. Previous studies in this field indicate that this is a very effective method to reach a broad audience, but it still is a relatively new area with very little research in existence today. This study is an analysis of how receptive listeners are to marketing through podcasts and the ability companies have to create a sustainable and effective strategy for successful marketing through this type of medium. The collection of data for this study consists of two different qualitative interviews, the first one with listeners that were chosen, and the second with the sponsor company for two of the largest podcasts in Sweden. The essay´s empirical evidence shows how receptive listeners are to marketing via podcasts, what their podcast habits look like, what form of approach in marketing they prefer, and how often they take part in different offers. From the interviews with listeners and sponsoring companies in the study, it is concluded that the best and most effective strategy for marketing through podcasts is to weave advertising in the conversation and therefore increase the credibility and disturb the listener as little as possible.
