In this master’s thesis I will investigate how librarians think about how their profession is affected by and relates to the democratic mission and various cultural policy decisions. I will also attempt to make more clear how librarians interpret, relate and deal with external forces of change such as technology, politics and other social forces. This has been done to investigate and survey the tw
This study aims to examine whether sustainable firms are more sensitive to economic hardship such as an economic crisis, high inflation and low GDP-growth than companies with less focus on sustainability. The research is based on publicly available taxonomy scores of twenty-three of largest publicly traded stocks in Sweden between 2003-2023. The results from three regressions, based on the same mo
Popular ScienceThe growing need for green processes in industry makes scientists design and develop processes that are more energy efficient than current processes. Naturally, some reactions require a high energy and long time to occur. This will cause high energy consumption and, typically, even more waste production. Therefore, many efforts have been done to design materials that can help to chaThe research work that I describe in my thesis deals with three different heterogenisation approaches for synthesising a heterogeneous transition metal catalyst used for direct C-H activation reactions. The three heterogenisation approaches considered in my research are: (1) heterogenisation of a molecular catalyst on a polymer support using covalent bonds, (2) heterogenisation of a catalyst on a
Swedish Central Bank Policy in the Post-War Period: Some CommentsThis article discusses the nature of the actions taken by the Swedish central bank - the Riksbank - in the post-war period and examines some of the consequences of these measures. In this context the views of the critics of the Riksbank are presented. Further, a review of the Riksbank’s measures is given. A distinction between moneta
Forest ecosystems, covering over a third of land on the Earth, play a significant role in the global hydrological cycle, and influence soil erosion and climate change. However, the distribution, movements, quality of water, and hydrological processes in forested ecosystems are not well understood yet.

Background: Invasive infections with non-beta-haemolytic streptococci (NBHS) is quite common and presents the clinicians with difficulties regarding which patients are at risk for infective endocarditis (IE). The HANDOC score was developed to identify patients with NBHS bacteraemia who are at low risk of IE. This study was conducted to validate HANDOC in an external cohort.Methods: Patients with NBackground: Invasive infections with non-beta-haemolytic streptococci (NBHS) is quite common and presents the clinicians with difficulties regarding which patients are at risk for infective endocarditis (IE).

The thesis is a study of female guerrilla soldiers, guerrilleras, in two Colombian guerrilla groups: the rural FARC-EP and the urban M-19. Firstly, the roles female guerrilleras play and the treatment of guerrilleras are described. Secondly, poststructural gender theory is used to understand the gender structures that underlie the division of labor within the groups. The study focuses on certain m
Popular Abstract in English Like earth is home for us, our gastrointestinal (GI) tract is home for microbes. All the bacteria that are living there are called “microbiota” and the total DNA they contain is called “microbiome”. The GI microbiota outnumbers human cells by factor of ten and the microbiome is at least 100 times larger than our human genome. A wide range of metabolic activities are perAbstract: Balanced microbiota of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract is important for maintaining health of the host. Altered gut microbiota have been found to be associated with various life-style induced and other intestinal inflammatory diseases. Gut microbiota is viewed as a metabolic organ and considered as new target for therapies. This thesis describes the work on exploring the microbiota of th
Systematic mass rape during warfare has been used throughout history. This research investigated how mass rape of women have been used as a weapon in Yugoslavia wars between 1992 and 1995. Material from the trials of Dragan Zelenovic, Dragoljub Kunarac, Radomir Kovac and Zoran Vukovic, all of them accused of rape against humanity during the Yugoslavia war, is analyzed in detail with the use of Pos
Food Waste is a global issue concerning the environment, resources, social justice and economy. Despite being so pressing, around one-third of food produced is discarded worldwide. Meanwhile, food waste is incredibly complicated, requiring collaborations of all stakeholders and various innovations.

Sustainability communication within the fashion industry remains constrained despite a growing focus on sustainability initiatives by brands. This master’s thesis investigates this constraint, often referred to as ‘green blushing’. Using qualitative research methods, this study examines the phenomenon through a case study of the Swedish fashion brand Kappahl. The findings reveal various factors co
Vi har i detta examensarbete utfört samtidig mätning av värmeutveckling (hydratationshastigheten) och relativ fuktighet (självuttorkningen) hos hydratiserande cement. Denna studie har gjorts på fyra grundrecept med olika cement där vatteninnehållet har varierats för att få olika självuttorkning. Mätningarna av relativ fuktighet är utförda med RF-sensorer som ger utslag i millivolt som därefter omv
Researchers have emphasized the child’s perspective within social science since the 1990’s which has resulted in a shift in the view of children within research towards the recognition that children are active, creative social agents in their own right. The main aim of this paper was to present methodological and ethical aspects regarding research with children on the basis of two propositions, th
Action research has another objective than dominating concepts in social science research – where the research aspects of the study are emphasized rather than creating change, and where objectivity, neutrality and avoidance of bias are important notions in the research process. The action research approach also means that the researchers will cooperate with various actors, such as social workers a

It focuses foremost on the holographic testament, which can be written in circumstances of sickness or emergencies, when an indi- vidual is unable to write an ordinary testament.
