I uppsatsen undersöks vilka effekter flygbolagens lojalitetsprogram har på samhället, för företag samt hos den enskilda konsumenten. Detta görs genom en metaetnografisk litteraturstudie där utvalda sekundärdata analyseras för att hitta synteser, gemensamma drag, för att sedan kunna dra en slutsats. Fyra teorier ligger primärt som stöd för analysen om vilka effekter som påverkar och huruvida dessa
The British people narrowly voted to leave the EU in June 2016, leaving the researchers with the difficult task of predicting an event that has never taken place before. This thesis aims to contribute to the research about Brexit by analyzing, using two different methods, the effects on UK exports to the EU in the scenario of it joining the EEA after leaving the EU. The first approach uses the est
Den här uppsatsen undersöker och jämför fyra svenska tidningars rapportering om invasionen av Irak 2003. Fokus läggs på vad tidningarna skriver om skuldfrågan och krigets aktörer, konsekvenser och motiv samt huruvida de sätter in konflikten i ett lokalt eller ett globalt sammanhang. Studien kommer fram till att det finns såväl likheter som skillnader mellan hur tidningarna rapporterar kring Irakkr
Ghana’s strive to strengthen and consolidate its democracy is met by the incidence of electoral violence and low levels of women political participation. Having passed the ‘two turnover’ test prescribed by Samuel P. Huntington, Ghana became the beacon of hope for Africa’s democracy. However, elections in the country are marred by violence and the unbalanced participation of men and women. This pap
En studie om införlivandet av Bohuslän jämfört med Skånelänen under år 1662. Materialet som använts är från två kommissioner, en som gjorts i vardera län, och Malmö recess. Studien syfte är att urskilja likheter och skillnader i hur statsbildandet har gått till i två län där kulturen, språken, ekonomin och lagarna skiljts åt. Den ska dessutom upplysa om vad för olika förväntningar de två länens st
The exploitation of Sápmi, Sami land, began about 400 years ago. With a post-colonial approach, I, in this essay analyse the discourses behind the law that regulates reindeer herding. With a critical discourse analysis of a government bill (proposition 1971:51) with post-colonial and Marxist theories, I show that discourses of profit and development influence the way Sami culture is perceived. In
The Viking Age has long been understood to be a time of great violence. However, research in the last 50 or so years has tended to focus only on more peaceful aspects of Nordic cultures during that period. This thesis works to change that, and tries to find ways to bring violence back into the fold. The aim of this project is to test Johan Galtung’s needs-based typology of violence against Viking
This thesis aims to understand the discourses of ‘climate migration’ represented in the policies of Bangladesh, based on the conceptual framework created by existing discursive debate on ‘climate migration’ and migration theories. With the guidance of ‘What’s the problem represented to be?’ (WPR) approach proposed by Bacchi (2009), six national policies of Bangladesh are selected and a full- dimen
The relationship between a Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) and a government can be unpredictable, which could complicate the NGO’s operations in a resource dependent environment. If a government decides to abruptly cut its official development assistance allocation towards the civil society; does that not only reflect the government’s new development policy but it might also jeopardize the con
För att avgöra huruvida en isälvsavlagring som enligt Sveriges Geologiska Undersökning (SGU) bedöms ha uttagsmöjligheter på >125 l/s väster om Finjasjön är lämplig som reservgrundvattentäkt till Hässleholms kommun utfördes en geofysisk undersökning. Mätningar utfördes med georadar, stångslingram med tre frekvenser samt resistivitetsmätning och inducerad polarisation (IP) i form av en CVES-mätning
Denna uppsats kretsar kring min översättning av ett utdrag ur Alisa Ganijevas roman "Zjenich i nevesta". Inledningsvis redovisas en källtextanalys som tar upp kontext, teman, ironi, bildspråk samt textens narrativa egenskaper. I den efterföljande översättningsstrategin diskuterar jag var jag lagt mig på skalan imitativ–funktionell ifråga om översättningens semantiska och pragmatiska aspe

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the effects of fluid-structure interaction on a submerged oscillating structure. It is to be determined whether it is possible to model such effects with acoustic fluid elements in LS-DYNA using Mat\_Acoustic. Experiments of an oscillating submerged box were performed and the results were used to compare simulations of the same setups. The setups compri
