Denna studie avser förklara varför inga politiska åtgärder vidtas för att minskaköttkonsumtionen när det finns tydliga belägg för dess bidragande effekter påklimatuppvärmningen. Genom en motivanalys iakttar jag aktörsbaserade och strukturellafaktorer som förklarar varför förslaget om en skatt på kött får dåligt gehör. Genom att jämföraden politiska hanteringen av köttkonsumtionen med bilismen åskådliggör jag ytterligarefaktorer som bidrar till att styrmedel finns i det ena fallet men inte i det andra.Jag har tolkat mitt material utifrån ett teoretiskt perspektiv som kan benämnas institutionalrational choice. Enligt detta är individen en allmänt rationell aktör som gör ställningstagandeni osäkra situationer tillsammans med andra. Klimatet utgör en gemensam resurs som ärtillgänglig för alla och närmast omöjlig att kontrollera.

This study focuses on romantic friendship between women in three Swedish novels written between 1836 and 1857: Sophie von Knorring?s (1797?1848) Illusionerna (1836), Fredrika Bremer?s (1801?1865) En dagbok (1843) and Marie Sophie Schwartz? (1819?1894) En fåfäng mans hustru (1857). Also, the connection between women and passion as well as the interesting occurrence of step- and foster mothers is looked upon in the study.The romantic friendship is freely expressed in these novels; love between women is neither presented as unnatural or unchaste. It both challenges the heterosexual matrix? claim on intelligibility and its rules for how desire should be expressed.

There's no doubt today that mankind has contributed to the changing climate byher use of fossil fuels. This must change in the nearby future. The Europeanleaders are expressing concern that renewable energy sources are not beingused to their full potential. The 2001/77/EC Directive on Electricity Productionfrom Renewable Energy Sources was accepted in 2001 to encourage thedevelopment of energy production from renewable sources, which isconsidered a step towards the fulfillment of the goal of the Union, that 12% ofthe gross energy consumption should come from renewable energy sources bythe year 2010.The objective of this thesis is to illuminate the common legislation of the EUregarding renewable energy with regard to goal fulfillment, judicial quality,conflicts with other goals of the EU and other faults. The objective is reachedby a hermeneutic study in which interpretation of written text is the mainmethod.

Det här är en studie i syfte att analysera den moçambikiska läroplanens värdegrundspolicy utifrån dess kapitel ?vision och uppdrag?. Genom denna analys undersöks vilka egenskaper samhället eftersträvar hos sina samhällsmedborgare och belyser hur eventuella diskurser i läroplanen kan ses ge mening till den goda samhällsmedborgaren.  Läroplanen interpreteras även ur ett socio-historiskt perspektiv.Genom att göra en diskursanalytisk studie på den moçambikiska läroplanstextens kapitel ?vision och uppdrag? utkristalliseras underelement, nodalpunkter och diskurser som både ger svar på vad som efterfrågas hos en god samhällsmedborgare och beskriver generella regelbundenheter som kännetecknar texten. Avslutningsvis appliceras svensk läroplansforskning på läroplanstexten för att undersöka om man utifrån det kan säga något om det moçambikiska samhället.En god samhällsmedborgare i Moçambique kännetecknas till stor del i läroplanen som någon som bidrar till att lyfta landet ur fattigdom, både individens och samhällets i stort, samt bidrar till att bevara freden i landet.

Detta arbete behandlar främst bedrägeribrott och om denna brottslighet ökat till följd av att tillgången till internet och att internetanvändandet ökat i samhället. Syftet med denna studie är att ge en bild och förståelse av hur ett ökat internetanvändande kan påverka ett bedrägligt beteende, det vill säga om ett ökat internetanvändande eller tillgången till internet påverkar hur antalet bedrägeribrott förändras. Frågeställningarna i detta arbete är: Finns det ett samband mellan internetanvändande och tillgång till internet hos befolkningen och antalet anmälda fall av bedrägerier? Kan detta eventuella samband förstås mot bakgrund av teorier rörande rationella val, samt sociala och ekonomiska faktorers påverkan på brottslighet? För att kunna besvara frågeställningen och syftet för studien har undersökningen baserats på en kvantitativ metod där officiell kriminalstatistik från Brottsförebyggande rådet och Ekobrottsmyndigheten använts. Vidare har viss statistik rörande sociala och ekonomiska faktorer inhämtats från Statistiska centralbyrån.

The market of fruit and vegetables develops continuously to become tougher and more complex. The fast development makes it difficult to keep up with all the changes. This is the case for apples and tomatoes. The purpose of this work is to explain what the trade routes are like for Swedish imports as well as the Swedish production of tomatoes and apples, both in the present and the past times. There is also an ambition to create comprehension of the trade routes.

External forces have significant impact on organisations. This study analyzes the implications of one type of external forces in aid-focused NGOs through two qualitative case studies where it is investigated if Sida?s reporting requirements have the intended effects: learning and control using a theoretical framework where it is recognised that the requirements may also result in dysfunctional behaviour: decoupling and colonisation. The study shows that when the demands are the result of institutional pressure rather than an ambition to generate learning and control, the demands tend to be unrealistic and the NGOs therefore decouple the formal fulfilment of the demands from the actual activities. It is argued that a partnership, which incorporates trust and dialogue, is a prerequisite, not only for learning, but also control.

The progress in the field of technology is often described as massive and its development has had a great impact on the social development (Vetenskapsrådet, 2012). As a result of the digital evolution, there has been a change in the way customer and company interact (Normann, 2011). The traditional way for players to interact with each other required an interaction human to human (ibid), a mode of interaction that now can be replaced or supplemented by todays technology and often Internet-based solutions (Salomonson et al., 2013). These technological solutions, the technical interaction, are often referred to as self-service systems. These systems enables the customer to carry out the tasks previously performed by the company (Hilton and Hughes, 2013).

Varje år uppkommer det stora volymer av jord- och bergmassor vid jord och schaktarbeten. Dessa massor måste hanteras, ofta körs de iväg till deponering och ersätts med nytt material. Det finns inga exakta siffror på hur stora massor det rör sig om. Men uppskattningsvis så kör var fjärde lastbil i Stockholms län omkring med jord- och bergmassor på sin last, detta är både kostsamt och resurskrävande. Förr fanns det upplag och täkter centralt, men i och med förtätningen av Stockholm flyttas dessa längre och längre bort från byggnationerna, med resultatet att transporterna blir dyrare, samtidigt som det sker en långsam utarmning av jord- och bergresurserna.

The increasing road traffic in Sweden will require investments in the infrastructure that the tax withdrawal of today will not allow according to a new government report, SOU 2006:33. An existing willingness to pay for those investments has therefore become an alternative to increases in taxation to be able to cover the costs. A proposal to let the willingness to pay, alternatively increases in taxation that act proportional, decide how a cost is distributed can be said to be related, but not fully correspond, with different theories of justice described by Robert Nozick and John Rawls. It can therefore be interesting to see how the two different theories of justice are edified and how they distribute a joint cost. The aim of the first part of the thesis is to present and criticize Rawls' and Nozick's theories of justice in a common formulated economic model.

This essay is an introduction to the intentions and purposes of the british play writer Sarah Kane (1971-1999). Her own voice is presented both via quotations linked to her work and by an explanation of her connections to the surrealist poet and actor Antonin Artaud. The main focus is on Kane?s second play, Phaedra?s Love, first performed in 1996. The play is analyzed in co-relation to La volonté de savoir, the first volume in Michel Foucault?s trilogy Histoire de la sexualité.

This master thesis covers the design of a special garden room, The Hardscape Room, in The Rehabilitation Gardens at Alnarp, in southern Sweden, as well as describes the design process. The Rehabilitation Gardens are intended to serve several purposes. It will offer horticultural therapeutic treatment programs for people diagnosed as having had burnout disease for an extended period. Research is also aimed at studying the possible impact of different garden design hypotheses as well as different forms of horticultural therapy. In The Rehabilitation Gardens at Alnarp the most extreme and demanding garden room focused on cultivation and horticultural therapy is The Hardscape Room.

Swedish agriculture stands in front of big changes the whole time. As a milking producer you have to adapt and develop the company to these changes and find the best solution. This potential is easy to find if you compare your company with other similar companies. Labour cost is the biggest cost in milking production after the cost for food. Today it is rather easy to measure how many hours per cow different system of cow houses needs, but we do not know so much about how many hours it takes to breed a calf. To learn more about the labour time with the calves during the first time after the calf was born, I made time studies on five different farms with calf hutches, automatic milk system, large calf boxes, and smaller calf boxes with teat buckets.

Today?s market for companies doing statistical surveys is a market consisting of mostly standardized methods where differentiating your company from the competitors is hard. Simultaneously both the society at large and technology in specific is under constant development and everything needs to be done at a faster pace with better precision. One of the companies on the market mentioned above is Tradewell Group AB. During 2008/2009 Tradewell has developed a new method for doing statistical surveys. The method named by Tradewell is called Cellphone Survey System, CSS and include using existing technology in a, for this market, unknown way.
