Purpose - The article has two major purposes. The first purpose is to examine the roles and practices of communication professionals in relation to internal aspects of crisis communication. The second purpose is to suggest new roles and practices for communication professionals that will enable a strategic approach to internal crisis communication. This article is based on empirical material from

”Alltså säg inte mötesplats! Och möjlighet! Alltså dom här M-orden har jag egentligen lite svårt för liksom. Och mångkultur!”Tjänstemannen blir plötsligt irriterad. Hon brinner för mångfald i kulturlivet, men retoriken, orden och jargongen gör henne frustrerad. Den här avhandlingen handlar till stor del om dessa ord och hur personer som arbetar med teater och integration förhåller sig till dem. TeThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate the notion of multiculturalism in relation to theatre and drama. In Swedish public discourse, culture and the arts are frequently referred to as a social glue which keeps society together. In this context theatre holds a particular position. On the one hand theatre is looked upon as a magic key capable of opening up all sorts of discriminatory structure

Visualizing results is an important part of Finite Element (FE) modeling. Many tools exist for visualizing these results, they are often part of complete software packages for FE analysis. These packages often rely on the user being familiar with FE analysis, making them unsuitable for use in teaching the FE Method. CALFEM (Computer Aided Learning of the Finite Element Method) is an FE toolbox de

World War II as an in(ternet)-joke : A study on cultural community on the forum r/ww2memes. This master’s thesis examines the construction of community on the Reddit-forum r/ww2memes, dedicated to publishing and sharing internet memes concerning World War 2. By constructing a theoretical framework consisting of a certain use of history applied in presentist temporalities, herein referred to as ap

The rapid development of digitization in recent years has meant enormous opportunities for improvement and efficiency of various activities within a company. Furthermore, the digital era has meant that digital tools are becoming more common for additional sectors and businesses. Yet, the construction industry seems to lack in this development. There is a general consensus that the construction ind

A review was performed of eight previously performed investigations of environmental impacts from end-consumer food waste prevention. The overall aim of the study was to investigate the state of the art in these assessments, identify key factors which could explain seen variations in GWP-emission savings, and suggest methodological improvements leading to increased potentials for cross-study compa

Context. Understanding the history and the evolution of the Milky Way is one of the main goals of modern astrophysics. In particular, the formation of the Galactic disc is a key problem of Galactic archaeology. Aims. We study the velocity dispersion behaviour of Galactic disc stars as a function of the [Mg/Fe] ratio, which for small metallicity bins can be used as a proxy of relative age. This key

Issue of study: Knowledge management is recognised as an essential part of company strategy, with the potential to generate significant competitive advantage. The theoretical basis of knowledge management is well developed, however the practical implementation is not well adapted with regards to construction organisations. More research with a practical perspective regarding knowledge management

During the Devonian, 377 Ma ago, the Earth was impacted by a large celestial body, striking ground in the Siljan area in Dalarna, Sweden. The impact created what is today the largest confirmed impact structure in western Europe. Since its formation, the structure has however been heavily eroded, leaving no trace of the original crater. Today, it is instead recognizable due to the central plateau a

We and others have recently shown that tumor characteristics are altered throughout tumor progression. These findings emphasize the need for re-examination of tumor characteristics at relapse and have led to recommendations from ESMO and the Swedish Breast Cancer group. Here, we aim to determine whether tumor characteristics and molecular subtypes in breast cancer metastases confer clinically rele

Multi-proxy analysis was performed on a radiocarbon-dated core, collected from a relic oxbow lake in the Limpopo River-plain, Mozambique, with the aim to reconstruct paleo-environment and past flooding of the lower river system over the past c. 800 years. An additional objective was to evaluate and investigate the potential use of different proxies as recorders of paleo-flooding events and paleo-e

Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP) potently augment insulin response to glucose. It is less known what their effects are insulin clearance, which also contributes to peripheral hyperinsulinemia observed after administration of incretins together with glucose. The aims of this study were the quantification of C-peptide secretion and the evaluation

Popular Abstract in Swedish Folkligt deltagande är något av en paroll i dagens utvecklingstänkande. När människor deltar i beslutsfattande och samhällsplanering på lokal nivå blir resultatet bättre och mer anpassat till lokala behov, särskilt i jämförelse med expertorienterade och centraliserade utvecklingsstrategier. Samtidigt kräver detta att folk i allmänhet vill delta och de har ett intresse aThe emphasis on people-centred development is distinctive in today’s development discourse. This is noticeable in catchwords like democratic decentralisation, participation, and empowerment, which are highly esteemed among NGOs, donors, and policymakers in recipient countries. The benefits of participatory approaches are several. When people influence the process of development, policies and pr

This book is a contribution to the discussion about religion in contemporary Western society, characterized by the privatization of religion. The concept religion is not easily operational and does not carry meaning or implications that remain valid or consistent over time. It must be re-substantiated in order to remain descriptive and operational. This book’s ambition is to explore a means of re-

Trafficking is a growing problem in the whole world, also in Asia. Additionally, more attention has been drawn to the problem due to the ill treatment of many women, especially in the sex sector. Despite the huge amounts of people, mostly women and children, being trafficked every year and the attention drawn to the problem, there has not until recently been a universal definition of trafficking,

Förevarande arbete syftar till att ur rättsäkerhetssynpunkt granska rättsreglerna beträffande intagningsförfarandet vid psykiatrisk tvångsvård enligt lagen (1991:1128) om psykiatrisk tvångsvård (LPT). Därvid kommer särskild fokus att riktas mot läkarnas rättsliga ställning. För att uppnå syftet undersöks rättsäkerhetsbegreppet och gällande rätt rörande beslut om tvångsvård. RättsäkerhetsperspektivThis thesis aims to examine the legislation regarding the admission procedure as regards to the practice of compulsory psychiatric care, which is regulated in the Swedish Compulsory Psychiatric Care Act (SFS 1991:1128). Furthermore, it seeks to evaluate if, and to what extent, this process can be regarded as fully respecting the legal rights of the individual. Particular focus will be directed at

The growing digitalization of recent decades and the ease with which we can connect to others on the web has resulted in many forms of civil activism which appear hardly conceivable without it. Ironically, one of the most profound of these manifestations has been in its defense. In 2012, a European public went online and took to the streets to demonstrate, ultimately successfully, against the Anti

I svenska kommuner används för tillfället ofta papperskartor som geografiskt hjälpmedel vid fältarbete. En mobil GIS (geografiskt informationssystem)applikation skulle kunna vara ett användbart hjälpmedel vid sådant fältarbete och speciellt för att genomföra fältinventering. I detta examensarbete har en sådan applikation utvecklas. Applikationen har utvecklats för Örebro kommun och kallas iSurvey.Currently, Swedish municipalities generally use paper maps to conduct field work. A Mobile GIS (geographical information system) application could be a useful tool when conducting field work and field inventory work. In this master thesis, such an application has been developed. The application was developed for the municipality in Örebro and is called iSurvey. When developing a mobile application
