This thesis is about the licensing system of the Creative Commons discussed from the perspective of the theory of the commons mostly as formulated by Elinor Ostrom. The work is started by describing the concepts and theory of common pool resources and regime of the commons for production and distribution of these resources. The main characteristics for successful traditional commons – efficiency,
According to society and the media, many social workers are often exposed to threats or violence, or to threats of violence, at work. Social workers can work in numerous different fields, including in social welfare. The purpose of this study was to examine how such welfare workers experience their work situation from an exposure point of view. A total or four interviews were held with welfare off
The objective of this study was to compare practitioners’ perspectives of the therapeutic relationship established face to face and online in order to add a broader understanding of the therapeutic relationship and whether a new context did highlight new aspects of therapy. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine psychotherapists in Greece: five of them worked face to face and four onl
The research investigates different aspects of pansexual self identifications within contemporary online communities. To explore such identifications, the research asks the subsequent question of whether pansexual identification constitutes an anti-identity position against conservative conceptualizations of identity, as well as new-homonormativities that mainstream LGBTQ movements of the West eng
This study examines the thoughts and expectations of social work students regarding their future career. In order to investigate this, a questionnaire was handed out to social work students (N=203) attending their final semester of the social work program (socionomprogrammet) at Göteborgs universitet, Högskolan i Jönköping, Högskolan i Kristianstad, Linnéuniversitetet and Malmö Högskola. The quest
This paper consists of an analysis of two film adaptations, the documentary Lasermannen- dokumentären (Tamas/Dixelius,Sweden,2005) and the TV- series Lasermannen (Maricimain,Sweden,2005) based on the documentary novel Lasermannen - En berättelse om Sverige by Gellert Tamas. Its purpose is to find out in which ways the written text is translated into film and how these translations effect the repre
Purpose: The aim of this study is to unravel consumer motives for enrolling in multiple programs and explore the consumer experience of multiple memberships in the highly competitive loyalty program market. Methodology: We have conducted a qualitative research with a hermeneutic approach. A sample group of nine women in the ages 47-62 were selected based on a snowball sample. Through detailed acco
Results are mixed as to whether the contingent-claim approach to credit risk evaluation is superior to other methods. We question the validity of prior research that has attempted to answer this question by applying normal distribution to calculate the implied probabilities of default in their assessment of Black- Scholes-Merton models. This is because, unlike the research community, the actual Mo
The study seeks to investigate long-term stock performance of RLBOs. The purpose also to investigate long-term performance differences across RLBOs by examining whether certain characteristics can be attributed to deviations in performance. In general, the study seeks to shed some light on the recent wave of leveraged buyout transactions. This study is to our knowledge based on the largest and hi
One of the most important parameters to measure in the fire discipline is the heat release rate (HRR). Therefore it is very important that these measurements are accurate and as correct as possible. The most common method for measuring heat release rate of fires is the OCC method (oxygen consumption calorimetry). The method is based on the relation between oxygen in the surroundings and the ex
Determination of the fluid-to-particle heat transfer coefficient hfp is a fundamental problem in food engineering. Solutions to this problem help food technologists and cooks prepare foods with desired characteristics more efficiently in time and energy use. This study aims to determine the hfp-value in simmering and boiling solid foods. Furthermore, it investigates how the culinary terms simmerin
Although Sweden collects and sorts a large share of plastic waste, a significant part of the separately collected plastic packaging waste is being incinerated and only 8 % of the plastic waste is being recycled into new products. As plastic is the main cause of greenhouse gas emissions from waste incineration, a systematic shift is needed to decrease incineration. Currently, Chemical recycling (CR
Mitt på Gotland ligger Atlingbo, ett litet jordbrukssamhälle där landskapet definieras av åkrar, skog och hagar. På Gotland, där en majoritet av invånarna bor utanför tätorterna, finns en levande landsbygd där små företag kan blomstra. Hantverksyrken gynnas trots det isolerade läget tack vare en stor genomströmning av turister. Projektet är en keramikverkstad intill den gamla lärarbostaden i AtliAt the centre of Gotland is Atlingbo, a small agricultural community where the landscape is defined by fields, forests and pastures. On Gotland, where a majority of the residents live outside of urban areas, the rural economy thrives and small businesses can flourish. Potentially, craft professions are supported here despite the isolated location thanks to a high influx of tourists. The project
During the 21st century, right wing populist parties (RPP:s) all over Europe have started entering the political parliaments. The Sweden Democrats have, like few others, had a fast growing political success in Sweden, growing from about 7% in the 2010 election to about 20% in the 2022 election. With their success, it is inevitable that the sociocultural and sociopolitical discourse has changed. Th
Idag finns det uppsägningsregler inom arbetsrätten som möjliggör det för arbetsgivaren att särbehandla på grund av ålder vid anställningens upphörande, vilket resulterar i att arbetstagare kan komma att missgynnas på grund av ålder. Samtidigt finns det diskrimineringsregler som ska skydda mot åldersdiskriminering, bland annat inom arbetslivet. Därför undersöker denna uppsats hur uppsägningsreglernToday, there are termination rules in the labor law which enable the employer to take age into account in certain termination situations, which results in workers being disadvantaged due to age. At the same time, there are discrimination rules to protect against age discrimination in the labor market. Therefore, this essay examines how the termination rules in the Employment Protection Act relate
The literature on sustainability transitions analyzes structural shifts towards more sustainable consumption and production patterns. Recently, it has been recognized that structures transcending national boundaries can both hinder and promote sustainability transitions. In this context, multi-scalar transition trajectories have been outlined, suggesting, among other things, that sectoral transfor
