Alberta’s Tar Sands are one of the most environmentally and socially destructive fossil fuel projects on Earth. Socio-political resistance or acceptance will determine the Tar Sands’ future: whether production continues or whether it is phased out to ensure meaningful climate action in Canada. I examined how news media communicates a “Just Transition” from the Tar Sands and proposed that their wri
With the use of articles, reports and academic literature, I have analyzed the significant role civil society played during, and after, the Tunisian revolution in 2011. The purpose of this essay has been to understand the underlying social distress, under which Tunisians had lived in many years, and how this came to result in a contagious revolution that marked the start of the Arab Spring. The re
The purpose with this study is to examine Fiske et al. (2002) hypothesis that stereotypes are best described from without the two dimensions warmth/competence. The survey is a scaling study where the participants' (n = 102) similarity judgements from a set of social groups were analyzed using the statistical tool PCA (Principal Component Analysis). The result of the PCA proposes a four-dimensi
Problemformulering: Tillväxtverkets (2016) menar att det finns flera människor som gärna skulle vilja bli entreprenörer, men inte blir det. Människor som vill bli entreprenörer men väljer att inte bli det tar således detta beslut på grund av olika problem de finner med att starta eget företag.

With this research question, we conduct qualitative research to understand how two different accelerators, one located in Skåne, Sweden and another located in Dhaka, Banglades

One billion vulnerable subsistence farmers across the global south depend on risky livelihoods in need of adaptation to climate change impacts. Simultaneously, their aggregated emission of greenhouse gases from land use and fuelwood consumption is substantial. Synergies between adaptation to climate change and mitigation should therefore be actively promoted. In the context of poverty, such synerg
Popular Abstract in English Knowledge can be many things; it can be metaphysical, enhancing the understanding of human beings and social relations. It can be hard facts, information, structure and ordering of nature. Knowledge can be inherent in the knowing subject – the emancipated subject, or it can exist as an entity independent of its founder. An apposite metaphor is knowledge as an end in itsThis thesis deals with the colonisation of the university by market forces. The object of inquiry is coproduction of academic knowledge between academic and non-academic actors in newly established universities and university colleges in Sweden. The development of knowledge as a main competitive advantage for commercial companies, and the shift in policies accompanying this development, provides a
This presentation discusses the development of the ‘The Activation Series’. Initiated in winter 2016-2017 this artistic method has led to the creation of the 5.1 surround sound installation 'I play Northern Lights' and the audio and video installation 'I play cement'. A third work is in progress in collaboration with Anders Hultqvist, Stefan Östersjö and Gunnar D. Hansson, with the first output pr
This dissertation deals with memory, recognition and solidarity in the Nowa Huta district of Kraków, Poland. Nowa Huta was founded as an independent, socialist model town in 1949, together with the large Lenin Steel Plant, and was incorporated into Kraków in 1951. In the 1980s the steel plant and district became one of the main centers of the oppositional Solidarity movement in Poland. Situated be
My dissertation develops a new perspective on Arab American cultural histories during the early to mid-20th century in the US. I focus mostly on Syrian and Lebanese American women in the Northeast and their strategies of self-representation. Archival traces of these women’s public visibility are scarce and distributed across a wide range of media: photography, reader comments, correspondence, club
Moving forward, higher education will face a variety of challenges, especially in 2020/2030, due to technological development and digitalization. Digitalization in society has grown, and society fosters digital citizenship to a greater extent. Students entering higher education today have grown up with the Internet and mobile devices. Daily life, schools, and work have also become more mobile beca
The purpose of this essey was to examine the latemodern family and what impact the latemodern family life has had on the children. This has been achieved by taking the concept of family and individualization as a starting point, and viewed in the light of a historical retrospect. My questions at issue were: · What processes in the development of society has contributed to create the conditions of
The relationship between child and labour is an old one. It tracks back to a time when children were not even considered to be citizens and their rights, and certainly not their labour rights, were not at all reflected upon. From this state the relationship has evolved and today a number of conventions exist on the subject, regulating the connection. The norms that were set by the first conven
Abstract The increased focus on social capital theory has made its way into labour economics. This has led to the creation of a vast literature about the use of networks and informal search methods in the labour-market, a literature that to some extent also deals with immigrants search behaviour and their relatively high unemployment rate. Characteristic for the literature in the area is the lack
