De svenska kriminella gängen beskrivs idag drivas av jakten på status och det talas om en heder bland gängmedlemmar som upprätthålls genom våld och kontroll, särskilt av kvinnor. Därmed har denna studie i syfte att undersöka hur hedersrelaterade normer tar sig uttryck i svenska gängmiljöer, samt vilka könsspecifika konsekvenser som detta medför. Två semistrukturerade intervjuer med två svenska ide“If we’re the worst, we’re the strongest. Then we have the most power." Honour culture within Swedish criminal gangs and its impact on women Swedish criminal gangs today are driven by the pursuit of status, and there is talk of an internal honour among gang members that is maintained though violence and control, particularly of women.

This thesis aims to reproduce the ATLAS detector measurements of the top quark mass, which is done by removing background events in the ATLAS detector dataset that has been extracted from the ATLAS Open Data (AOD). Understanding how it is produced and decayed, and how it can be seen in the detector. The coding for this project was done in ROOT via C++. We used simulations and a theoretical backgro

Recognizing that the labor movement is under-theorized as a political subject in degrowth literature, this thesis investigates potentials for alignment between degrowth and the Swedish labor movement through a focus on policies. It hypothesized that the two, from a policy perspective, may hold positions that could mutually reinforce each other. Departing from 14 policies proposed jointly in degrow

This thesis explores how Chinese adoptees in Sweden negotiate their identity in a society characterized by a norm of whiteness. By collecting empirical research through seven interviews, it aims to shed light on Chinese adoptees and their experiences.

Sedan den första börsen öppnade 1602 i Amsterdam är drömmen för alla investerare att förutspå marknaden. Idag finns det en uppsjö av olika metoder för att ge ett hum om hur framtida marknader kan se ut. Är det möjligt att kombinera olika metoder för att skräddarsy en modell till just din portfölj? Svaret är: ja, den kombination av modeller som använts fungerar bra i teorin och presterar även bra CCC and DCC are used to estimate the conditional correlation between a non-standard mix of GARCH, GARCH-M and a stochastic volatility model, all assuming Gaussian innovations. After demonstrating the theoretical soundness of this combination, a portfolio of ten assets with diverse return dynamics is constructed. Portfolio performance is evaluated using Value at risk, the Sharpe ratio, maximum draw

The primary objective of this study is to explore the perceptions of three inclusive marketing strategies—racial representation, AI-driven personalization, and unfiltered beauty—on consumer perceptions of brand authenticity and their connections to long-term brand loyalty in the makeup sector. The study aims to gain insight into how the combined application of these strategies shapes the perceived

Context. The adverse effects of interstellar extinction makes the optical range unsuitable for spectroscopic analysis of stellar populations in dust-obscured regions of the Milky Way. With new instruments available, high-quality spectroscopy in the near-infrared (near-IR or NIR) range is now feasible. However, this region of the electromagnetic spectrum is relatively unexplored for the purpose of

This study compares the financial performance of Islamic and conventional banks across the pre-, during-, and post-Covid-19 period from 2018 to 2024. Using the CAMEL framework, a Financial Performance Index (FPI) was developed to evaluate stability and resilience. The results show that Islamic banks consistently achieved higher FPI particularly during and post pandemic, indicating greater overall

Mental health issues among Swedish school children are a recurring concern. Although school health teams are legally assigned to primarily work on health promotion and prevention, previous evaluations have found these efforts to be insufficient. Based on our own observations during a school-based internship, we noticed how school nurses and school counselors carry out this work differently. The ai

Syftet med denna studie var att kvalitativt utforska lärares syn på kunskapsbildning och kommunikation om klimatförändringar med elever i Vietnam, ett land med förhöjd klimatrisk.

Miniaturisation of weapons and other tools is a phenomenon seen throughout the Viking Age in Scandinavia. Predominantly using the theory of semiotics, previous publications on miniature weapons have reached similar conclusions as to the functions of these objects. Three main interpretational threads can be seen repeated throughout the previous research; miniature weapons as symbolic objects, minia

Att driva ett lantbruk är som att sköta ett komplext ekosystem i miniatyr – varje beslut om mark, vatten och grödor påverkar naturen långt bortom gärdeskanterna. Men att mäta och bevisa den påverkan är ofta tidskrävande och kostsamt för lantbrukaren. Samtidigt samlar myndigheter redan in stora mängder miljödata, från vattenkvalitet till markanvändning, för helt andra syften än certifiering. Tänk oThe aim of this study was to explore the potential of using existing environmental moni-toring data as a basis for environmental certification of farms within primary agricultural production. Three research questions guided the work: which indicators of agricultural environmental impact can be identified in available monitoring data, which criteria these data must meet to be applicable in a certif
