Under 2016 och 2017 rapporterades det om en stor mängd anmälningar om sexuella ofredanden på musikfestivaler i Sverige. Därefter startades en mängd projekt som syftade till att öka säkerheten och tryggheten på festivaler. Ett av projekten var ”allas fest, din trygghet” som startades av Västerås Cityfestival, Västerås stad och Länsstyrelsen i Västmanland. Det har tidigare kommunicerats trygghetsåtgärder på festivalområdet i Västerås City men inte innan evenemanget har startat. Syftet med det här arbetet är att undersöka hur man kan kommunicera trygghetsåtgärder mot sexuella ofredanden till unga besökare och vårdnadshavare till unga besökare inför publika evenemang. Målet med arbetet är att utforma ett gestaltningsförslag till båda målgrupperna för hur man skulle kunna kommunicera trygghetsåtgärder innan evenemanget har startat. För att göra det har teorier och inom informationsdesign såsom retorik, stilistik och text och bild i samverkan använts i kombination med metoder som intervju och komparativ analys för att ta fram prototyper på ett gestaltningsförslag. Dessa prototyper testades på personer från målgruppen för att se hur de fungerade på målgrupperna och för att göra gestaltningsförslaget mer användarvänligt. Undersökningen resulterade i att det fungerar bra att använda retorik, stilistik och text och bild i samverkan för att skapa ett material som informerar om trygghetsåtgärder mot sexuella ofredanden till unga besökare och unga besökares vårdnadshavare inför en festival. Och för att övertyga de om att det är tryggt att gå på festivalen.

The legacy of colonial representational logics and the increasing role of visual media cemented,on a wide scale, the image of Afro people in the visual now the discourse and underlyingassumptions of poverty, lack, need and helplessness. The thesis investigates the modes of visualcounter-narratives outside of International Development institutional practices. Using aPostcolonial lens and mainstream semiology framework, it analyses 9 photographicrepresentations of Afro people and bodies produced by African, Caribbean, and European visualstorytellers, photojournalists, fashion photographers and artists. The research finds the counternarratives processes stands against the backdrop of colonial logics of alterity. The modes of representation propose a critic to the mainstream discourse of representation and make visiblecounter-narratives about Afro people in combining photographs and text. It is expressed as avisual re-writing effort where the photographers, together with the people in the picture,collaborate to renegotiate the visual space and grammar of happiness, drive, passion, creativity,heritage, and community as attributed to Afro people and bodies.

Previous research shows that, despite the strengthening impact that minority journalism hason the identity and language of minorities, the resources to produce such journalism aresmall in comparison to mainstream offices. This lack of resources has proven to have aneffect on journalism (Moring 2007; Moring & Godenhjelm 2010).Drawing upon the model of "Hierarchy of Influences" (Shoemaker & Reese 2014), thisthesis is an attempt to expand the understanding of the editorial processes that form thenews selection of a minority editorial office, thus adding new insights to the limitedunderstanding of minority journalism.Based on data generated from 11 interviews and a quantitative content analysis of 46 onlinearticles this research aims to conceptualise, how the reporting of the Swedish parliamentaryelections in 2022 produced by the Finnish speaking Public Service minority editorial office,Sveriges Radio Finska, was affected by the journalistic processes that took place inside theoffice.The findings based on the empirical data that was collected for this study show, that theminority journalists fall into a trap, where a journalistic product that has identity andlanguage strengthening qualities, is expected of them, but the resources to do so arelacking. This results in a working environment that can be experienced as stressful.

Patriarchal and masculinist ideologies have facilitated the global climate crisis and need to be transformed to address climate change successfully and achieve climate justice (Gaard, 2015). Climate fiction stories can envision future states of society (Robinson, 2016) and can thus challenge these ideologies and disrupt binary concepts of domination (Anglin, 2015). This research uses the theoretical framework of critical ecofeminism and its understanding of the dualistic construction of relations between humans and nature or men and women. In combination with relevant multimodal critical discourse analysis tools an analytical toolkit is created. This is used to analyse the climate fiction TV series THE COMMONS (Birse, 2019) with regard to present structures of domination between men, women and nature. The research findings determine that key dualisms are strongly present and accompanying power relations are reproduced, but also critically questioned to an extent. Especially class domination and the concept of men as the dominant gender is challenged.

This thesis examines SVTs portrayal of the platform Onlyfans and its creators in relation to its guidelines on pornographic material and gender equality, in order to uncover a possible normalization of pornography for a male audience. By doing so the article uses the method of a multimodal critical discourse analysis combined with Laura Mulvey’s theory of the male gaze and Stuart Hall’s representation to analyze the documentary film Pornfluencers.  Previous research has shown how pornography and female sexuality is portratted in different media forms and how the depiction often contributes to the normalization of the commodification of female sexuality. No previous research has been made on how public service guidelines are put into practice. Considering the responsibility SVT has against the public it is necessary to examine how they choose to represent the polarized and debated phenomena of Onlyfans that is a part of bigger discourses of normalization of pornography in society.  Through the use of the analysis model and theoretical framework focusing on representation and the reproduction of patriarchal structures in visual material, the result shows that the phenomena of Onlyfans is presented in a factual and versatile way. However the representation between male and female creators differ and the platform is normalized through the framing of an empowerment-discourse and the sexualisation of the female creators which reproduces patriarchal structures. By this result the study further points out the importance of a suitable and coherent application of SVTs guidelines when presenting delicate subjects.

This study aims to investigate how the evening press, Aftonbladet and Expressen, portray female and male murderers. To answer the study’s purpose, the following research questions were formed: - What are the similarities and differences in the portrayal of male and female killers? - In what ways are traditional stereotypes reproduced or challenged in the reporting of male and female killers? The method applied in the study is a critical discourse analysis that enables an in-depth analysis of the empirical material, which consisted of 30 news articles from Aftonbladet and Expressen. The selection was limited to six murder cases within three categories. All murders occurred in close relationships, three cases involved a male perpetrator and three a female perpetrator. This study applied a social constructivist perspective, which means that reality shapes and is shaped by language. The theory section consists of gender studies, news journalism and how the news media affects the perception of gender. The previous research has examined how the news media portrays female and male murderers and whether murderers fall within the ideal of chivalry. With support from previous research and media theories, we have examined how male and female murderers are portrayed in the evening press from a gender perspective. The analysis studied the portrayal of murderers based on the themes “personality” and “the convicted person's background”. The results showed that the portrayal differed between male and female murderers, with all articles stemming from the ways of traditional gender stereotypes. The overall pattern we found was that the women are portrayed in a milder and more neutral way as opposed to the men who are portrayed in a harsher way, however, there were exceptions. The final discussion further argues how the evening press's way of maintaining traditional stereotypes may affect the public's perception of what is considered male and female.

Studiens syfte var att undersöka hur Nike och H&M har använt CSR som en kommunikationsstrategi för att bygga starka varumärken genom deras kollektioner “Move to Zero” och "Buttons with Impact”. Syftet var även att undersöka hur deras CSR strategier har nått ut till konsumenterna ur ett konsumentperspektiv. Studien undersöker hur Nike och H&M har implementerat CSR initiativ i deras kampanjer, hur dessa initiativ har påverkat konsumenternas uppfattning om företagen och deras produkter, samt vilka fördelar och nackdelar som följer med CSR strategier. Genom att undersöka dessa frågor har studien bidragit till en bättre förståelse av hur CSR har implementerats av Nike och H&M, samt hur det har uppfattats av konsumenterna. Studiens utgångspunkt var en kvalitativ metod i form av en multimodal analys för respektive företag samt en kvantitativ metod i form av en enkätundersökning. Resultatet av studien visade att medvetenheten kring företagens CSR initiativ var låg bland konsumenterna och indikerar att företagen möjligtvis inte innehar en effektiv CSR kommunikation som man kan tro. Studien tyder även på att företagen faktiskt implementerar hållbarhetsarbete inom sin organisation men hur kommunikationen och budskapet kring kampanjerna inte nått fram till konsumerande kunder.
