Learning processes in a cultural context. – A music project with Swedish and Gambian secondary school students. This essay is about a cross-cultural music performance project between Swedish and Gambian youths. As a researcher, I am especially interested in learning processes among youth musicians. I have the focus on the young peoples learning processes. This interest perspective in this topic ha

Nine Stockholm-based joint-stock data analysis and web hosting companies are hereby united in an external financial analysis, ranging from 1998 to 2007. The main contributions to the body of knowledge comprise observations regarding the companies’ management efficiency and their survival of “the dot-com crisis”. Given the fact that the firms’ resource bases are their differentiating factors, resou

Energy efficiency and environmental questions have gained increased attention over the last decade. In combination with global warming and increasing cooling demands, the Swedish market for combined heating and cooling solutions such as ground source heat pumps expands. As it currently stands, the multi-family building market is highly dominated by district heating, while the market share of combi

The Court decision in Daily Mail has come as a result of the resolution of the Member States to endorse a plurality of national legal solutions in the field of tax and corporate laws. The free movement provisions must be understood against this background and keeping in mind that no matter which “interface program” is to be used the system as a whole, i.e. the internal market, must be effective an

Since national independence many NGOs active in the domain of gender have been established in Kyrgyzstan. Recently, this part of the NGO sector has seen the emergence of alternative organizations, voicing new issues and perspectives. In this thesis, I take a closer look at these new actors: how they differ from the older generation and also in relation to each other. I am especially interested in

There are many signs indicating a climate change, which will affect us globally as well as locally. One of the most obvious effects in Scandinavia is the threatening sea level rise. The sea level rise will affect huge parts of Sweden’s coastal areas. Especially vulnerable is the Falsterbo peninsula in southwest of Scania, Sweden. The low surroundings already today suffer from short term coastal fl

According to the curriculum of the preschool, one of it's purposes is to work with equality, and to challenge traditional gender roles. Despite this, many preschools still lack active work with gender/equality – the difference amongst pre-schools is sometimes extreme. I tried to find elements that influence preschool teachers to choose to work with gender and equality. Some of these elements a

The purpose of this study is to show how eating meat as a norm is linked to gender, and more specific; to problematize the meat normativity and its connection to masculinity. By conducting interviews with both male meat eaters and vegans, I wanted to see in what ways gender is performed through the speech of meat, and how male vegans relate to and are influenced by the connection between masculi

The interventions of the Turkish military in Turkish politics have been many and severe. As a consequence the development of a Turkish democracy has been backtracked and halted on occasions. The country’s aspirations for EU-membership have also been hindered. At the center of political (re)development in Turkish politics we find the constitution of 1982. This constitution, written by the military,

Rape and other forms of sexual violence committed with impunity during armed conflicts as well as peacetime has been condemned by the UN and the international community. However, this position is a relatively new. The late reaction to the war-related rapes is partly a consequence of the fact that rape has historically been the subject of myths. Myths such as that rapes represent an inevitable resu

The concrete sector is a major contributor to global greenhouse gas emissions; consumes substantial amounts of natural resources and serves as a significant source of global waste. The Circular Economy approach has been put forward as the solution to these environmental issues, but the overall effectiveness of the approach has been called into question by existing research. The aim of this thesis

This thesis aims to explore the impact of population policy on women’s reproductive rights. I use one child policy, which has far-reaching repercussions on all Chinese women at childbearing age, as the case for this research. The following questions are asked: What is one child policy? What kinds of measures are used to lower fertility rate? What is the impact on women’s reproductive rights? I emp

The maritime transportation of hazardous cargo has created a sometimes intense dispute between the shipping industry and coastal states. The arguments feeding this discussion are the right of innocent passage, claimed by shipping states, and on the other hand, the obligation to protect the environment stressed by coastal states. Two sets of rules, both codified in international law, stand in confl

Background and Aim: Trigger finger (TF) or stenosing tenosynovitis has been associated with diabetes mellitus (DM), although today’s knowledge is mostly based on cross-sectional and case-control studies. Thus, the aim of the present population-based cohort study over more than 20 years was to investigate DM as a risk factor for TF.Methods: Data from Malmö Diet and Cancer Study (MDCS), including 30

Background/aim: In ED chest pain patients, a 0-hour/1-hour protocol based on high sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) tests combined with clinical risk stratification in diagnosing acute coronary syndrome is recommended. Two of the most promising risk stratification tools are the History, ECG, Age, Risk Factors and Troponin (HEART) and Emergency Department Assessment of Chest Pain (EDAC) scor

In this paper we propose minimal solvers for relative pose estimation for two views of the projected silhouettes of two 3D cylinders. Using such line features instead of the standard point feature correspondences means more stable information (i.e. more stable to lighting condition, seasons, changes in environment etc.). Such features also lead to more compact and semantically interpretable repres

Control of the microstructure of steel components during their processing is a crucial factor for reaching desired product properties. Realistic simulations of the microstructure evolution during processing can facilitate the improvement of existing processes as well as the design of new ones by reducing the need for time- and cost-intensive experimental investigations. This work focuses on the mo

This thesis explores the electrification of DB Schenker’s collection and distribution (CoDi) fleet at a Swedish terminal, referred to as The Terminal. The purpose is to identify the challenges involved in electrifying the CoDi-fleet at The Terminal and to suggest solutions focused on two critical areas: charging management systems (CMS) and physical charging infrastructure (CI). The end goal is to
