Skogen spelar en viktig roll för den globala biologiska mångfalden, klimatet och är kopplade till urfolks kulturella överlevnad. Samernas traditionella rennäring är beroende av skogens ekosystem. Expansionen av kommersiellt skogsbruk i Sverige har dock lett till betydande konflikter om markanvändning, där samernas rättigheter ofta nedprioriteras till förmån för andra ekonomiska intressen. Denna uForests are vital for global biodiversity, environmental sustainability and are intrinsically linked to the cultural survival of Indigenous peoples. The Sámi traditional reindeer herding practices depend on forest ecosystems. However, the expansion of commercial forestry in Sweden has led to significant conflicts over land use, with the Sámi people’s rights frequently being de-prioritised in favou

Since the start of the Arab Spring in 2010, the Middle East has changed drastically. As a result, global and regional powers have turned to the most vulnerable countries, including Syria and Yemen. Saudi Arabia, a regional power, has been actively involved in both the civil wars of Syria and Yemen. This study focuses on the Saudi foreign policy discourse vis-à-vis two cases, Syria and Yemen. Since

This thesis is a social study of “artistic research”, a field of activity that has emerged from the world of art, where the process of artistic creation is simultaneously seen as a process of knowledge production. The research problem motivating the thesis is that artistic research overturns conventional understandings of art and research as two opposing entities by actively combining the two. In

In this thesis I examine the view on nature and the view of man in relation to nature, from the two perspectives of the bishops of the Church of Sweden and the Pope of the Roman Catholic Church. I do this based on Cecilie Rubow's theory of three ecologies. This theory, which is also my method, criticizes Christian anthropocentrism in light of the climate crisis. Rubow argues that western theol

Prayer has its origin in the Bible and as a practise it serves a lot of purposes. One of these is to convey the teachings of the church, which takes the form of liturgical prayer in a worship service. The two liberation prayers within the baptismal liturgy of the Swedish church, convey the teachings of the church on original sin, and the thesis of this essay is that the two choices provided for th

This study aims to identify the most cost-effective and environmentally friendly retrofit solutions for enhancing the energy efficiency of second homes in Sweden. Second homes, often used intermittently throughout the year, represent a significant portion of residential energy use and carbon emissions. Therefore, optimizing energy consumption in these homes is critical for achieving national and g

As the frequency of natural disasters increases, marked by hotter summers and abnormal ecological changes, climate issues have become impossible to ignore. People are taking to the streets, not only demanding greater awareness but also pushing for meaningful policy changes. This research investigates the relationship between protest events and policymaking within the EU between July 2018 and Decem

Det finns en mångfald av olika sorters ytor, men en speciell delmängd av dem, de kompakta och sammanhängande, kan beskrivas i sin helhet av objekt som kallas schema. Det är med dess schema och deras egenskaper som vi kommer att bevisa vårt huvudresultat; Att all sådana ytor kan beskrivas av tori, projektiva plan eller sfären.The study of surfaces is a specific subcategory of manifolds. In simpler terms, surfaces are topological spaces which are locally similar to the plane. One may think of a sphere, a cube or a donut. There has long been a desire to classify all of these surfaces, and the goal of classifying a certain subset, the compact and connected ones, go back to 1861 when möbius tried. Unfortunately he did not

Chronic stress is an escalating global issue that implies significant challenges. The Scandinavian region, including Sweden, faces a substantial obstacle in addressing this problem due to long waiting queues for psychological help. In Sweden, individuals may have to endure a wait of up to 12 weeks, while in Denmark, the waiting period can be as long as 20 weeks. Consequently, there is an urgent ne

Sending remittances is a deeply personal act influenced by cultural and social norms, as well as familial expectations. This thesis aims to explore how these influences shape the decisions of Filipino migrants in Sweden to send remittances and the following impact on their emotional bonds and familial relationships. By simplifying the complex phenomenon of remittances, the study investigates the m

Platser som har bevittnat några av historiens mest fruktansvärda händelser har blivit stora turistattraktioner, besökta av miljontals människor. Detta fenomen har populariserats under termen "Dark Tourism". Men hur behandlas egentligen det mörka arvet på dessa platser? Hur väljer de olika aktörerna att bruka, eller icke-bruka, sin tragiska historia för att sälja biljetter? Denna studie uFrom beach, sun and sex to death, disaster and misery - A study about the use of history within Dark Tourism. Sites that have witnessed some of history’s most horrific events have become major tourist attractions, visited by millions of people.

Böcker och läsning är ett centralt motiv i berättelsen om Jane Eyre (1847), vilket på många sätt bidrar till framställningen av karaktärisering, världsbygge och narrativets framfart. Det finns särskilt samband mellan framställningen av böcker och läsning och framställningen av makt och maktdynamiker i Jane Eyre. Tidigare forskning om böcker och läsepraktiker i Jane Eyre har fokuserat på den allusiBooks and reading are a central motif within the narrative of Jane Eyre (1847) by Charlotte Brontë and contributes in many ways to the depiction of characterisation, world-building, and the progression of the narrative. In particular, there are correlations between the depiction of books and reading and the depiction of power and power dynamics in Jane Eyre. Previous research into books and readin

I detta arbete har en Minimum viable product (MVP) för en applikation utvecklats, som gör det säkrare att avveckla och ta bort endpoints för ett REST API. Tidigare arbete har visat att hanteringen av avvecklingen av endpoints i REST API:er är ett problem, där REST API:er inte följer protokoll för avveckling och borttagning. Applikationen är gjord för att tillhandahålla ett enkelt sätt att övervakaIn this thesis - a Minimum viable product (MVP) for an application aimed at making deprecation and removal of REST API endpoints safer - was developed. Previous work has shown that handling deprecations and removal of endpoints in REST APIs is a problem, with REST APIs not following deprecation-removal protocols nor giving the API consumers the information needed to properly update their software.
