Danielsson, F. 2025. The senses, the churches and the forest: Sensory archaeology in Örkelljunga and Perstorps church. Medieval churches have been a foundational area of inquiry for the field of historical archaeology since its conception at Lund university in the 1960’s. Since then, plenty of studies have been conducted that examines medieval churches from a top-down approach while other aspects

This thesis examines representations of homosexual men in Swedish media and public information campaigns during the hiv/aids epidemic, using materials published 1983-1996. The thesis centers on how concepts such as homonormativity and homonationalism are reflected in the discourse, along with an exploration of the rhetorical strategies employed by journalists to increase readership. A thematic ana
Losses and damages induced by climate change are increasingly felt by communities worldwide, disproportionately affecting communities relying on subsistence agriculture. Peru is one of the countries most vulnerable to losses and damages, due to its high exposure to climatic risks and the relative vulnerability of its population. To respond to climate-driven loss, the Warsaw International Mecha
Managing change is becoming increasingly crucial for organizations to survive in today’s contemporary work environment. However, change is “riddled” with ambiguity and uncertainty, affecting managers, employees, and organization as a whole. Middle managers, who are located in a peculiar position in the hierarchy are often tasked with having to interpret and guide others through change. This proces
Projektet växte fram ur en önskan att främja en livsstil mer i samklang med livet utomhus. Det resulterade i en undersökande gestaltning kring hur arkitekturen kan bredda begreppet för vad en bostad är – och bör vara – för att främja livskvalitet. Istället för att betrakta bostaden som en plats som tar slut vid ytterväggarna, föreställer jag mig hemmet som en förlängning av den värme och ljus som
The current legislative framework regarding criminal record checks in Swedish municipalities can be perceived as lacking and may lead to violations of privacy and exclusions of formerly incarcerated individuals. Criminal record checks can, however, help employers make hiring decisions to ensure safety for elders and children. In light of this dilemma, the aim of this research was to examine the le
To simulate subcutaneous injection pressure, numerical solvers are developed and subsequently used to train a predictive, data-driven surrogate model that delivers fast and reliable outputs. Different approaches are examined for solving a nonlinear partial differential equation that describes the pressure during subcutaneous injections over time and in a semi-infinite spatial domain. For the spati
This study explores how Generation Z pilots are shaping the future of pilot training in commercial aviation within Scandinavia, with a particular focus on SAS. The aim is to compare how the “Learning Triangle” model (Illeris, 2007) can be adapted to better align with the learning preferences of younger pilots. A systematic literature review was conducted and selected studies were analysed alongsid
The 2025 introduction of Sweden’s law on anonymous witnesses in criminal cases (2024:1180) has sparked legal and societal debate, yet empirical research in the area is underdeveloped. Previous studies have assessed the law's theoretical compatibility with fundamental legal principles and juridical norms on a European and international level. This study, in contrast, explores the law in its pra
Titel: När tillgången styr begäret – En kvalitativ undersökning om unga kvinnors föreställningar kring scarcity marketing och FOMO inom modebranschens e-handel. Seminariedatum: 3 juni, 2025 Kurs: FEKH29 – Examensarbete på kandidatnivå i marknadsföring (15 högskolepoäng) Författare: Emma Andersson, Emma Larsson och Ida Pålsson Handledare: Clara Gustafsson Nyckelord: Scarcity marketing, FOMO,
The purpose of this study is to explore how young, eco-conscious Swedish women navigate the tension between sustainability and beauty ideals regarding their consumption of cosmetic products. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with young, educated women, alongside two middle-aged women working with sustainability and organic products. Thematic analysis was used to identify themes, categories
This paper investigates the role of inequality in shaping both the level and direction of innovation across 50 countries from 2015 to 2018. Drawing on the framework of national innovation systems and employing Principal Component Analysis (PCA) alongside multivariate OLS regressions, we construct composite indicators for governance, inequality, and institutional capacity. Our findings suggest that
This thesis explores how exclusionary practices in luxury branding, such as high price barriers, selective staff behavior, and intimidating store design, shape consumer perceptions of trust, fairness, and willingness to buy, particularly among consumers aged 18–29. Grounded in Social Exclusion Theory and Boltanski and Thévenot’s Worlds of Worth framework, the study examines how branding strategies
The purpose of this investigation is to explore and highlight the role of the Third World within a human rights framework during the era of decolonization. More specifically the investigation analyzes in what ways states from the Third World used human rights to argue for the abolishment of colonialism within the context of debates in the 15th session of the UN General Assembly in 1960 and in rela
Shootings have become the central focus in both the political debate as well as in media coverage. Even though shootings are statistically rare, the symbolic impact they have on public perception is significant. The aim of this thesis is to examine how Swedish media symbolically constructs the public- and parochial realm when shootings occur in them, and what symbolic meanings are attributed to th
Sweden has in the past decade embarked on a journey to rebuild the concept of ‘total defence’. The crisis management system led by the Swedish Civil Contingency Agency has become all-the-more involved in the civil defense, with the Swedish Armed Forces responsible for military defense. The present thesis aims to explore the topic of gender and language in Sweden’s total defense discourse to uncove
This thesis investigates a version of the Vehicle Routing Problem: The pickup and delivery problem with transshipments. The aim was to construct a mathematical model, that finds optimal rail freight train routes according to specific requirements used in the industry. One challenge was that transshipments - the process of a request order changing trains at an intermediary station - were necessary
The purpose of this investigation is to examine how Chinese and German Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) affect human development in Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), as measured by the Human Development Index (HDI), and to explore potential reasons for any differences in their respective impacts. The investigation is based on two multiple linear regression models, both implementing OLS fixed effects estim
