This thesis is a study of Twelver Shi’a Islam in the context of Azeri-Turkish Muslims living in the Anatolia-Caucasus borderlands of Northeastern Turkey.

I argue that sound, voice and li

This chapter examines ruin towns: civil defence training grounds that replicated urban war zones. The ruins provided a stage for enacting nuclear war, where the merely imagined was given a tangible expression. The chapter sketches the transnational extension-by-invitation of a British model of ruins to Denmark, and through architectural and historical analysis, it asks how it was re-embedded into

Maillard reaction is an extensively studied, yet unresolved chemical reaction that occurs as a result of application of the heat and during the storage of foods. The formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) has been the focus of several investigations recently. These molecules which are formed at the advanced stage of the Maillard reaction, are suspected to be involved in autoimmune dis

In the beginning of 2016 an intense debate took place in Swedish media concerning the quality of higher education. In the debate it was claimed that the quality is in decline partly due to result based financing for universities and an increase in competition amongst them. Despite the large interest for the subject no study has so far been conducted to discern what is true and what is not. This st

Uppsatsens utgångspunkt är det uppmärksammade rättsfallet rörande Swedbanks före detta VD, Birgitte Bonnesen, som av Svea hovrätt dömdes för grovt svindleri till fängelse i 15 månader. Bonnesen dömdes för att ha gjort vilseledande uttalanden till media angående Swedbanks penningstvättsarbete och kopplingar till Danske Banks verksamhet i Estland, trots att hon hade icke offentliggjord information sThe basis of this thesis is the high-profile legal case concerning Swedbank’s former CEO, Birgitte Bonnesen, who was convicted by the Svea Court of Appeal of gross swindling and sentenced to 15 months in prison.

With the theory of the transmission of chosen transgenerational traumas as a point of departure, this study finds that political leaders have frequently utilized historical traumas as points of

This study iams to show how the non-governmental organisation Doctors Without Borders represent people in suffering and distress in 2009. The three photographs chosen are located on a photo blog called "Voices from the field" on the organisation's international web page. The basis for the analysis is a hypothesis that these represented narratives can be interpreted as having a moral

A challenging question today is how to understand and act on climate change. Previous analyses of the public outreach of the climate sciences have concluded that the urgent communication of climate change is inadequate. It is foremost the invisibility of carbon dioxide and the lack of a tangible relationship between current emissions and future effects that have been seen as the main challenge to

During the last couple of years Myanmar has attracted international media attention for what is known as the “Rohingya crisis”. Rohingya have been fleeing the country after clashes between Rohingya and Buddhists in Rakhine state which have been followed by increased violence and oppression. The clashes and tensions between the Buddhist majority and the Rohingya minority in the country aren’t new o

The construction of radical right populist resistance around metaphors ofmasculinity at the beginning of the 21st century is a little researched area. Thisarticle accounts for the discursive redefinitions of Swedishness enabled byconceptual metaphors in order to accommodate centrally located heterosexistmasculinities at the intersection of gender, class, and ‘race’, as heralded by the main Swedish

Electromagnetic fields exist all around us. Through evolution, nature has developed tools to interact and use these fields, where our eyes are a spectacular example. Humans have a long history of developing structures and objects of their own to alter and interact with these fields. Today they are important cornerstones in society, with radiating devices such as cell phones, Wi-Fi routers, or car
