This article examines how knowledge of an impending collapse of modern industrial civilization circulated in Swedish society during the early 1970s.

In this book Ehrensvärd argued that the technologically advanced societies of the early 1970s would soon

Since the end of the Cold War, the operations of secret police informers have come under the media spotlight, and it is now common knowledge that vast internal networks of spies in the Soviet Union and East Germany were directed by the Communist Party. By contrast, very little historical information has been available on the covert operations of the security services in Mao Zedong's China. However

Neoconservatism developed in the context of liberal anti-communism from the 1940s.

I takt med att klimatet förändras ser vi allt oftare naturkatastrofer äga rum, och Sverige är inte undantaget från denna utveckling. Samtidigt blir Facebook och andra sociala medier ett allt vanligare verktyg för kriskommunikation i offentliga organisationer. Traditionellt har forskning inom kriskommunikation ett managementperspektiv och därför undersöker denna kandidatuppsats istället kriskommuniAs the climate on our planet is changing, natural disasters are occurring increasingly often, and Sweden is not an exception. At the same time, Facebook and other social media are more frequently used as crisis communication tools among public organizations. Traditionally, research within the field of Crisis Communication is pursued from a management perspective, and therefore this thesis uses a r

Both numerical simulations and experimental measurements of small scale spontaneous ignition with different biomass fuels have been performed. In the experiments, temperature history was monitored at five different locations inside the fuel bed. The measured temperature history was used for validation of comprehensive threedimensional computer simulations which were carried out using a parallel fi

I november 1906 utkom första numret av Folkets väl. Denna ”tidning för tro och fosterland” presenterade sig som en ny konservativ röst i ett Sverige som höll på att fördärvas av socialism, gudsförnekelse och antimilitarism. Men mellan raderna dolde sig en smädeskrift riktad mot det borgerliga samhället och dess makthavare.Bakom den skenheliga tidningen stod typografen, författaren och anarkisten E

Utsatta EU-medborgare som befinner sig i Sverige får sina grundläggande mänskliga rättigheter kränkta. På grund av fattigdom, diskriminering och marginalisering har utsatta EU-medborgare, de flesta romer, kommit till Sverige för att söka försörjning. FN har uttryckt en stor oro över situationen och behandlingen av utsatta EU-medborgare i Sverige. Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka hur Vulnerable EU-citizens’ basic human rights are being violated today in Sweden. Due to poverty, discrimination and marginalization vulnerable EU-citizens, most of whom identify as Roma, have come to Sweden to find self-provision. The UN have expressed great concern over the situation and treatment of vulnerable EU-citizens in Sweden. The purpose of this essay is to examine how vulnerable EU-citize

After a century of Swedish State monopoly of printing, with only one printing office, that of the Royal Printer in Stockholm, the beginning of the 17th century marks a spread of establishments over the realm. This is a conscious change in Government media policy. Around 1650 there were nine printing shops active in Sweden, six of these in provincial towns with universities or diocesan schools, but

This dissertation defines a number of new concepts, such as pop-up mosque, social media adhan, non-Muslim Islam, and warping, to give a detailed description how the Mariam Mosque (with female imams) was established and the kind of phenomenon it is. The latter concept (warping) plays an important role as the dissertation argues that, while Islams may be presented in a certain way, obeying rules suc
