This PhD thesis deals with anthropomorphic images from the Vendel and Viking Ages, their contexts and functions. The images are seen as means of communication with “effective power” or agency ("Wirkmächtigkeit"). They could have had a relationship of interaction or partial identity with what was represented, due to the fact that the Vendel and Viking Age societies were largely based on oral tradit

Utgångspunkten för uppsatsen är Svea hovrätts uppmärksammade dom i mål B 2457–23 (Swedbank-domen). Domen rörde Swedbanks tidigare vd, Birgitte Bonnesen, som dömdes för grovt svindleri på grund av att hon undanhållit information om misstänkt penningtvätt i bankens estländska verksamhet. Eftersom svindleribrottet sällan prövas i domstol har Swedbank-domen stor betydelse för hur verkställande direktöThe starting point of this thesis is the widely discussed ruling by the Svea court of Appeal in case B 2457–23 (the Swedbank-case). The case concerned Swedbank’s former chief executive officer (CEO), Birgitte Bonnesen, who was convicted of gross swindle for withholding information about suspected money laundering in the bank’s Estonian operations. Since swindle cases are rare, the Swedbank-case is
15 CREDITS | AUTUMN TERM Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be understood as systems which show intelligent behaviour by analysing their environment and with some degree of autonomy act to reach certain goals.

Popular Abstract in Swedish Frågan om marknadshandelns karaktär har aktualiserats genom de skandaler inom företagsvärlden som media har lyft fram under senare år. Dagens situation väcker frågor om den handel som förekom i äldre samhällen? Existerade marknadshandel till exempel under vikingatid? Om så var fallet hur uppfattades och hanterades marknadshandel i detta samhälle? Handelns roll för det The view of the exchange and trade that took place during the Viking Age has varied considerably. This variation is obvious from a scrutiny of how one and the same place, Birka, is described by different scholars over a period of a hundred years. Two very polarized pictures of Birka appear: A town with a mostly free market-oriented trade or an emporium with an administered commodity exchange contr
Addressing climate change and the collapse of ecosystems without threatening the economy, while simultaneously improving the well-being of all people, and ensuring social justice and equality seems to be the largest challenge in the history of mankind. So far, all the efforts to address growing environmental and human problems through technological solutions and half-hearted policy measures have b
Increasing frequency and intensity of droughts threaten grassland ecosystems. Semi-natural grasslands vary in age from ancient to younger sites established on former arable land. While species richness and composition are known to affect drought resilience, little is known about how grassland age shapes drought responses through eco-evolutionary processes at the plant population level. We explored
Vocabularies of space define the world. Yet, despite their apparent conceptual authority (Harley 1989), the lineagesof cartographic entities are often blurred, accidental, and produced from etymologies only imperfectly understoodby their users. Drawing on a recent study on past and present meanings of the term ‘Mesopotamia’ (Rattenborg2018), this paper reviews the inadvertent, if now firmly embedd
The city of Malmö in southern Sweden has long argued and presented itself as a city of tomorrow and a city for everyone. The city often shows itself as a modern city with a focus on modern technology. One of the ways Malmö wishes to present itself as a leading city is through the development of the city’s infrastructure and mobility. The city has lofty goals focused on bringing democracy to the sp
This dissertation tackles contemporary optimism regarding global income inequality trends from a critical perspective. It looks at the World Bank's influential report on global inequality from 2016, and investigates whether the World Bank's objective notion of themselves is plausible. In the context of the World Bank’s neoliberal ideological roots, the dissertation comes to the conclusion
Since the initial publication of a bildungsroman in 2003, the work of Nigerian-born writer Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has received much recognition from scholars and critics. The aesthetics of her fiction could, however, be further examined in relation to recurrent themes in her public speaking. The importance of rejecting stereotypes and the single story of Africa is one such theme. This essay argu
