Global climate change is one of the greatest challenges in our history. As the average temperature is rising due to anthropogenic emissions, impacts such as floods, droughts and hurricanes, affect the lives of millions of people. Though the least developed countries are least responsible for emissions, they are the worst affected. This thesis focuses on environmental justice in the Adaptation discourse. By outlining the Adaptation discourse from the United Framework Convention on Climate Change principles, to the Marrakesh Accords, via the Kyotoprotocol my ambition is to analyse how environmental justice has been interpreted in relation to the Adaptation discourse.

The purpose of this essay is to study two film Adaptations of the original Planet of the Apes novel and see what kind of relationship the two Adaptations have with each other. The main question is if the secondary film Adaptation is restricted by the primary and if the relationships between these two are as two separate Adaptations or as a remake of an Adaptation. What the results of the study show is that the secondary Adaptation can not be seen as a remake even though it gets some of its inspiration from both the original story as well as the primary Adaptation. The secondary Adaptation is, however, restricted in what it can adapt due to the primary Adaptation having the first pick, at least if the secondary Adaptation wishes to be a whole new Adaptation and not a remake of the primary. The study shows also that the fidelity in the secondary Adaptation is not necessarily to either the original or the primary but to the knowledge the audience has about the Planet of the Apes universe which they have gathered from all of the important versions of the story.

Some MNEs encounter frustration or failures when they enter a new market. The main reason is due to a lack of Adaptation. There is a lack of theoretical study about the local Adaptation phenomenon of Swedish MNEs in China. Most studies are at the level of experience. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to find out the dimensions subject to local Adaptation and their degree for the Swedish MNEs in China.

Bacteria are exposed to evolutionary pressure to an extent unlike other organisms. This leads to a high degree of Adaptation to its surrounding. This thesis investigates the degree of Adaptation towards higher accuracy in the transcription of DNA to RNA in coding sequences in the DNA of the E. coli bacteria. Two coding sequences with different nucleotide contents were investigated.

This work is meant to contribute to the research of Adaptation studies by focusing on a special case: the transformation of a fictional diary into a movie. In order to sustain the form of the literary source the Adaptation to movie requires certain strategies. Först of all, the diary genre is characterized by a one-dimensional narration. Second, diaries only supply a few written dialogues, hence this "void" has to be compensated and filled by media specific measures. Third, the investigated diary is a story of individualization and emancipation of a single woman.

The thesis of this essay is concerned with how two Adaptations of The Neverending Story have used the novel's vivid intertextuality and dialogism. The essay also discusses the possibilities of Adaptation studies and whether an Adaptation can explain a novel by emphasizing its themes..

För att möta kommande klimatförändringar behövs klimatanpassning vilket innebär att skydda samhället mot klimatförändringarna och ta tillvara eventuella möjligheter. Olika länder har tillämpat olika sätt att styra anpassning, vilka generellt kan delas in i top-down och bottom-up styrning. Dessa styrformer generar olika problem och möjligheter för implementering. Till exempel så brister ofta styrning genom top-down implementeringen på lokal nivå, medan bottom-up ofta försvåras av att lokala aktörer saknar resurser i implementering. I denna litteratur och dokumentsbaserade studie undersöker vi aktuell forskning och policydokument för att med stöd av Environmental Governance-teorin, klargöra styrningsformernas uppbyggnad, effektivitet, problem och möjligheter.

To identify the exchange and Adaptation that takes place in the business relationship between electricity suppliers and electricity customers and analyze how these factors affect the strength of the relationship.The investigated concepts create synergies. The strength of the business relationship in the current situation is dominated by weak reciprocity in Adaptation and an inefficient exchange of information with low frequency..

This thesis examines the ways in which Adaptation and vulnerability are framed in national and sectorial policy-documents dealing with expected societal impacts of climate change. By using theories of discourse and ideology, the analysis aims to find and understand important ideas and presuppositions that are explicitly or implicitly expressed in these documents in order to make possible and tangible the institutional production of policy within the potentially far-reaching problematique of climate change Adaptation and vulnerability. The analysis shows that there are two main perspectives through which vulnerability and Adaptation are framed; one focusing limits to societal robustness; and one contesting the institutional capacity to implement Adaptations. The author understands these framings as complementarily optimizing preconceived social and economic relations, something that might, in fact, reduce the response capacity of people..

This essay investigates the relationship between Mildred and her daughter Veda in James M. Cains novel Mildred Pierce (1941). The purpose of the investigation is to point out how the relationship is portrayed in the film from 1945, and the TV-series from 2011. To facilitate the analysis I apply Adaptation theorist Thomas Leicht?s list of ten different Adaptation strategies to conclude the possible effects these strategies may have had on the relationship portrait and the themes of the novel.
