In recent years, the Chinese city of Dali has been intensely romanticised on digital platforms such as Rednote (Xiaohongshu) as a flawless sanctuary of slow living. This digital utopification emerges as a collective response to systemic urban hypercompetition and burnout. Rather than verifying the empirical truth of this destination image, this thesis investigates what utopification actively achie
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka sambandet mellan upplevd stress, miljöbelastning och olika former av självtillit inom tre specifika domän; professionell självtillit, social självtillit och romantisk självtillit. En kvantitativ ansats användes för att utforska frågeställningarna: “Vilket samband finns det mellan upplevd miljöbelastning, romantisk självtillit, social självtillit och profesThe purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between perceived stress, environmental strain, and different forms of self-reliance within three specific domains; professional self-reliance, social self-reliance, and romantic self-reliance. A quantitative approach was used to explore the research questions: “What is the relationship between perceived environmental strain, romantic s
Denna studie syftade till att undersöka om det finns ett samband mellan social status, självkänsla och FoMO i relation till upplevd upptagenhet. Den undersökta modellen byggde på hypotesen att låg social status, låg självkänsla och hög FoMO korrelerar med en hög grad av upplevd upptagenhet. Relationerna mellan de oberoende variablerna inom denna specifika modell baserades på tidigare forskning, meThis study aimed to examine if there is an association between social status, self-esteem and FoMO on perceived busyness. The model studied was built around the hypothesis that low social status, low self-esteem and high FoMo correlates with a high perceived busyness. The relationships between the independent variables within this specific model were based on previous research, but the association
The formation of our Galaxy has long been a rewarding area of research within astronomy. A large part of analysis includes using kinematics to separate the different structures in the Milky Way and also to discover accreted stars. While it is highly useful to understand the motions of populations there are systematic errors that follow, due to the difficulties of getting high quality data for them
The system around the star Beta Pictoris is often referred to as the poster child of exoplanet research. However, the planetary system contains many more interesting components inside its large protoplanetary disks. When examining the stellar spectrum, long-lasting absorption lines near the Ca II lines of the star have been observed. While these absorption lines resemble those of transiting exocom
Plate heat exchangers are widely used in industry due to their high thermal efficiency and versatility, compact design and ease of maintenance. In gasketed plate heat exchangers (GPHEs), the reliability of the system strongly depends on the adhesion between the elastomeric gasket and the metallic plate. Although GPHEs can be periodically opened and cleaned to restore heat transfer efficiency, cle
Uppsatsen behandlar vilka problem som uppstår när begreppet ”loss” definieras i aktieöverlåtelseavtal reglerade av svensk rätt vid företagstransaktioner. Inledningsvis undersöks hur ”loss” definieras i praktiken genom ett empiriskt material bestående av definitioner insamlade från delägare på större affärsjuridiska byråer samt intervjuer med delägare verksamma inom företagstransaktioner. UndersöknThis thesis examines the problems that arise when the concept of “loss” is defined in share purchase agreements governed by Swedish law in the context of corporate transactions. Initially, the study examines how “loss” is defined in practice through empirical data consisting of definitions collected from partners at major corporate law firms, as well as interviews with partners active in corporate
Denna uppsats prövar den enskildes rättsliga ställning i en automatiserad förvaltning genom att analysera hur myndighetsövergripande beslutsmodeller förhåller sig till dataskyddsförordningens krav på skydd mot automatiserat beslutsfattande. Analysen genomförs med utgångspunkt i ett rättssäkerhetsperspektiv och har särskilt fokus på hur automatiserad profilering i ett inledande led samverkar med efThis thesis examines the legal position of the individual in an automated public administration by analyzing to what extent fragmented decision-making models can be reconciled with the requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) regarding protection against automated decision-making. The analysis is conducted from a legal certainty perspective and focuses in particular on how aut
Synergies are frequently cited as a primary rationale for mergers and acquisitions, yet they are often overestimated in the pre-acquisition phase and inadequately translated into realised value. While prior research has extensively examined the financial valuation of synergies, less attention has been given to the organisational processes through which synergies are identified, evaluated and commu
This thesis investigates how reliance on ONVIF certification, a global interoperability standard in the network video industry, influences how a large technology company organises its internal organisational structures, roles, responsibilities and resource allocation. Technical standards such as ONVIF, with adherence validated through certification processes, are widely used to promote interoperab
After several years of broad support for the European Green Deal (EGD), a significant number of communities and politicians are calling on the EU and Member States to slow down its green measures and focus on ‘other’ crises, most notably the cost-of-living crisis.This White Paper argues that environmental, social and economic crises can’t be looked at in isolation. And that addressing today’s ‘pol
This report has been written as part of the ERASMUS+ project CLARITY. The aim of CLARITY is to enhance educators' skills for nurturing resilience and reducing climate anxiety of learners through trauma-informed and creative approaches that link inner and outer dimensions of change. Sustainability and climate education tend to focus on environmental facts, whilst little room is given to the human d
Published 2024 – As part of the Earth4All project, collaborators have submitted deep-dive papers to delve further into the issues and solutions needed to transform our economic system and provide an equitable future for all on a finite planet. This paper highlights the overlooked inner dimension of system change, and offers systems thinkers the language to advocate for psychological, social and sp
This guide Addressing Inner Dimensions for Sustainability in Higher Education is aimed at Higher Education faculty from diverse disciplines. The target group is interested in expanding their sustainability knowledge and perspectives, integrating sustainability into their teaching practices, and enhancing their sustainability-related teaching approach by addressing inner dimensions. By inner dimens
This article responds to the general neglect of legal culture in the study of climate mobilities. It presents a case study of climate mobilities in an unplanned settlement in Maputo, Mozambique, exploring how legal culture influenced residents’ decision-making processes as they navigated climate-related risks in their daily lives. We demonstrate that legal culture can facilitate climate mobilities
Existentiella hot, inklusive hot mot jaget, samhället och planeten, förekommer genom hela livet och utgör en central del av den mänskliga erfarenheten. För att sammanföra kunskap och begrepp om hur människor kan hantera existentiella hot på ett adekvat sätt sammankallade vi en tvärvetenskaplig arbetsgrupp bestående av åtta forskare från fälten psykologi, systematisk teologi, praktisk teologi, reliExistential threats, including threats to the self, society, and the planet, are present throughout the lifespan and form a core element of the human experience. To consolidate knowledge and constructs about how people can adequately respond to existential threats, we convened an interdisciplinary working group, which consisted of eight researchers from the fields of psychology, systemic theology,
Transdisciplinary research (TDR) seeks to involve non-academic perspectives from the start, ensuring that research draws on diverse knowledge to better address “wicked” problems. Since TDR researchers have to engage with non-academic perspectives throughout the research process, this chapter focuses on the kind of communication practices that are appropriate and effective for engaging with people
