This essay aims to evaluate the visions of the culture policy of the Swedish municipality of Norrköping during 2023. In Norrköping the municipal council has decided that costs for various parts of publicly funded culture are too high. Therefore they consider privatizing these institutions or making them perform commercial works to a larger extent. The study uses a normative method, where a norm ha
Challenger parties are a popular topic of interest in political science. Prior research on challenger parties is predominantly regarding their characteristics and effects on the political climate. However, the transition from challenger to mainstream is less investigated. Moreover, prior research on challenger parties is, albeit not exclusively, heavily focused on right wing populist parties. This
I denna uppsats undersöks Svea och Göta hovrätts användning av leuteration och arbitrering under 1600-talet. Genom införandet av Appendix år 1608 skulle flera brott som tidigare belagts med böter i stället straffas med döden. Dödsstraff förekom även i de svenska landskapslagarna, för bland annat stöld och grova våldsbrott. Trots att lagen föreskrev stränga straff tenderade hovrätten att förmildra The purpose of this paper is to examine different explanations for the use of leuteration and arbitration by the Svea and Göta Court of Appeal, between 1614 and 1680. The process of leuteration and arbitration has been examined through the historical context of the time, and the comprehension of the sources of law. The Svea Court of Appeal was established by the 1614 Ordinance of Judicial Proced
Food systems can negatively impact the environment and human health, posing challenges to global sustainability goals. Employing the Three Spheres of Transformation framework, this thesis examines sustainable entrepreneurs' role in transforming food systems to support plant-based food consumption. Focusing on Swedish plant-based alternative food start-ups, I conducted 11 interviews to explore
The buildings and construction sector plays a key role for the European Union to achieve its climate targets. Continuous failure of the sector ́s climate mitigation has brought up a rising discussion about the compatibility of infinite economic growth and long-term socio-ecological sustainability. Grounded in the concept of degrowth, this study analyzes the implicit sustainability understandings a
This thesis is about autistic women. It is about how we, as a society, construct and perceive normality and motherhood as a normative ideal for women. It is also about a dis/ability that often goes unnoticed since autism is not defined by any visible markers. Rather, autism is categorized by behaviour considered atypical through the medical gaze. How to make visible the invisible, the in-between
Purpose We aim to investigate how professionals make sense of the culture in the context of PSFs and how they engage in organizational and professional identification. Methodology The researchers look into the sensemaking processes professionals attach to organizational culture from a symbolic interactionism tradition, while from a critical perspective challenging the mainstream assumptions about
The rapidly increasing use of AI-chatbots creates ever evolving questions of privacy concerns in end users where they have to evaluate where the line is drawn between personalization and privacy intrusion. The conducted literature review highlights the complex landscape of privacy theories, privacy concerns and human-AI interactions. Using this as a guide, a qualitative study has been conducted on
We propose a SLAM system that reconstructs 3D scenes by leveraging dense feature correspondences and planar structures, identified through multi-view homographies. In contrast to traditional SLAM algorithms, our method emphasizes planes as the primary geometric primitive. While classical keypoint detectors such as SIFT typically yield a few hundred matches per image pair, modern dense matchers ca
In this thesis I analyze the official government report "En ny ordning för asylsökandes boende" (SOU 2022:64) together with three consultation reports. The aim of the study is to reveal assumed and naturalized presumptions about asylum as a concept, and the logic that lies behind the contemporary changes. Further the aim is to show a discursive change and contribute to knowledge about co
The Moon’s origin is an exciting topic that many scientists believe started with a colossal collision between early Earth and a Mars-sized body. In this study, we examine the possibility that Theia, a body known to have existed, may have formed in a stable orbit between Earth and Mars, and eventually collided with our planet due to orbital changes over time. To explore this event, we use the REBOU
Ukraine is a war-torn society polarised by language, among other things. Examining Ukrainian civilians through the scope of everyday peace, a post-liberal local agency is given to people whose identity is threatened. This thesis researches everyday peace across the Ukrainian language divide during war to determine how the war impacts everyday actions, explanations, and the applicability of the the
Cykeln är ett enkelt och effektivt transportsätt med flera trafiktekniska, miljömässiga och sociala fördelar. Trots det kan cykelinfrastrukturen i många fall vara eftersatt och bortprioriterad. De flesta dödsolyckor i cykeltrafiken sker vid kollision med motorfordon vilket gör interaktionen med motorfordon intressant. Främst kan cykelinfrastruktur i korsningar utformas integrerat där cyklister för
This study investigates how young adults (aged 19–22) in Malmö communicate about consent in the context of one-night stands. Adopting a sociology of law perspective, it examines the extent to which social and cultural factors shape such communication. Drawing on empirical material from ten in-depth qualitative interviews, the study provides rich insights into how young adults navigate consent in s
In a society facing rising sea levels and the associated challenges, such as flooding, there is a growing need for climate adaptation measures. This thesis aims to examine climate adaptation efforts in the region of Skåne, Sweden, by exploring the role of insurance companies – an important stakeholder in the housing market as insurance is a requirement for most bank loans – in urban planning. Addi
Uppsatsen behandlar det rättsliga läget i Sverige för användningen av AI-system vars syfte är att utföra ansiktsigenkänning. Polismyndighetens användning av tekniken står i centrum för analysen. Användningen möjliggörs av AI-förordningen som reglerar när aktörer får eller inte får använda olika typer av AI-system. I förordningen regleras bland annat situationer då en behörig myndighet som exempelvThis thesis examines the legal framework concerning AI systems for facial recognition. The main focus is on the Swedish Police Authority’s use of the technology. The AI Act is the main legal text governing AI systems and it regulates when different types of AI systems may be used. The AI Act includes regulation surrounding the use of AI systems for facial recognition by, for example, the Swedish P
