The purpose of this thesis is to explore the region in its role as a regional security provider through a within-case study of West Africa. The point of departure is on one hand that contemporary threats to international peace and security are increasingly regional, arising within states rather than from a global or out-of-region origin, and on the other hand that the regions among the world has b
In today's society social movement are dependent on media as a channel to com-municate their political message and their discourse. Media is an arena for dis-courses but at the same time, along with Attac, one of the actors who struggle to be part of the dominant discourse of the society. This struggle is uneven due to media and the relationship is to some content hegemonic. Attac Sweden was
This thesis provides a formal analysis of Agnès Varda’s documentary The Beaches of Agnès (2008), focusing on how the formal elements in the film such as voice-over, reenactments and the use of mirrors create a sense of self-awareness in the film. Through Agnès Varda’s extensive body of work it is possible to see the historical movement of the essay film, from its relation to the French Cinema fro
Varje år drabbas 250-300 barn av cancer i Sverige. Sjukdomen påverkar hela familjens livssituation. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att identifiera psykosociala behov hos barn med cancer och deras familj. Vidare var syftet att undersöka betydelsen av stöd till barnen och familjerna. Tjugofyra vetenskapliga artiklar från nio olika tidsskrifter mellan 1990 och 2001granskades. Resultatet visade
Det har påtalats att kompetensen bland nyutexaminerade sjuksköterskor brister, främst gällande kliniska/tekniska färdigheter, vilket har relaterats till att utbildningen har blivit för teoretisk och innehåller för lite klinisk praktik. Syftet med denna enkätstudie var att undersöka och belysa förväntningar och synpunkter som sjuksköterskestudenter i termin två och sex vid Lunds universitet hade på
Att arbeta inom vårdyrket är av tradition ett kvinnodominerat yrke. Idag arbetar endast fåtalet män inom vårdyrket. Studien avsåg att undersöka uppfattningar från manliga och kvinnliga sjuksköterskor huruvida det fanns skillnader i omvårdnadsarbetets utförande beroende på sjuksköterskans kön. Syftet omfattade vidare om man ansåg att det finns jämställdhet i vården och varför så få män arbetar inom
Denna studie syfte är att undersöka vad som bedriver ett politiskt engagemang hos en ung akademiker. Studien har utgått från Esser & de Vreeses definition av politiskt engagemang. Studien avser att öka kunskapen för hur den unga väljaren uppfattar sin politiska omgivning och vad som motiverar ett politiskt engagemang samt hur den politiska kommunikationen och digitaliseringen har betydelse i d
This thesis is based on my interpretation of three particular visual examples that were created in relation to the racial tensions that were occurring at the time of their production. My visual examples are (1) the 2016 campaign advert commissioned by Operation Black vote (2) The music video I’m not Racist by the American rapper Joyner Lucas relaesed in 2017 (3) Sir Davey’s Proclamation Board to t
Combination chemotherapy may induce remission from acute myeloid leukemia (AML), but validated criteria for treatment of elderly are lacking. The remission intention ( RI) rate for elderly patients, as reported to the Swedish Leukemia Registry, was known to be different when comparing the six health care regions, but the consequences of different management are unknown. The Leukemia Registry, cont
Popular Abstract in Swedish Baserat på ett nytt data material bestående av observationer på 16 variabler i 232 val i Afrika, görs tre olika analyser. Först avvisas ett antal etablerade hypoteser om nutida Afrikansk politik och demokratisering. Sedan påvisas valens självförstärkande och självförbättrande kraft med hänvisning till institutioners interna logik och strukturering av aktörers incitamenThis book is about elections and democracy in newly democratizing countries. Building on a new data set of 5,568 observations in 232 elections, it provides evidence elections have a casual impact on improving the quality of democracy in Africa in more than one way. The study demonstrates multiparty elections do not signal the end of transitions to democracy but rather foster liberalization and hav
In the hospital, intensive care unit (ICU) is an isolated space where patients with acute symptoms are treated. When the patients are in ICU, their families are usually in psychological crisis and under great pressure. The value of ICU is thus to provide a complete ICU service by which not only the patients receive good treatment, but the feelings of family members are also considered and managed.
The partial ternary phase diagram of anionic extended surfactant of alkyl polypropylene oxide sulfate C-12(PO)(4)SO4 alone and combined with the cationic hydrotrope, tetrabutyl ammonium bromide with water and decane were determined under ambient conditions. Middle phase microemulsion was formulated using salinity scans in the dilute region of surfactant/brine/decane. Visual inspection as well as c
Although calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) are effective at preventing a cute rejection, their long-term use is associated with nephrotoxicity that may compromise long-term renal allograft Survival. Consequently, there is considerable interest in identifying immunosuppressive regimens that permit reduced exposure to CNIs while maintaining adequate immunosuppression. Introducing such strategies early a
A central tenet of signal transduction in eukaryotic cells is that extra-cellular ligands activate specific cell surface receptors, which orchestrate downstream responses. This ''protein-centric" view is increasingly challenged by evidence for the involvement of specialized membrane domains in signal transduction. Here, we propose that membrane perturbation may serve as an alternative mechanism to
Denna undersökning utreder den diskrepans som finns mellan 40 a § URL och 3 § 2 st LAU. De två paragraferna kan framkalla motsägelsefulla situationer för arbetsgivare och arbetstagare när både upphovsrätt och patenträtt kan ges ett datorprogram. Ämnet berör till stor del det immaterialrättsliga området, men ses utifrån ett arbetsrättsligt perspektiv. Denna typ av undersökning är intressant då de oThis study investigates the discrepancy between 40 a § URL and 3 § 2 st LAU. The two sections can produce contradictory situations for employers and employees when both copyright and patent law can be given a computer program. The subject is mainly linked to intellectual property law, but is viewed from a labor law perspective. This type of study is interesting, because the different fields of law
