Nu jagar de papperslösa : En kvalitativ diskursanalys om massmedias framställning av Reva-projektet och polisens arbeteSögüt, Betina, Ylikangas, Nellie January 2013 (has links)
The purpose of this essay, “Now they are chasing paper-less - A qualitative discourse analysis of mass medias depiction of the Reva-project and the work of the police”, is to analyze how mass media portrays the Reva-project and polices work with the project. The basis for the essay will be eight selected newspapers. The Reva-project implies collaboration between the Police, the Swedish Migration board and the Swedish Prison and Probation Service within the border police. The aim of the project is to enhance the efficiency and the execution of the border police work, in accordance with the government’s target. Furthermore, we want to understand and describe how the discourse around the Reva-project is portrayed in a mass media context, how the articles describe the Reva-project, the police work with the project and also what consequences has emerged from the project. In addition to the discourse analysis a supplementary interview with a police officer has been conducted. In this essay we want to relate to previous research that addresses how news are produced and manufactured and how the police are described in the mass media by examining relevant material from 2008 and onwards. We have been inspired by Michel Foucaults archaeological approach and Norman Faircloughs three dimensional model, which we have used to analyze our data. The portrayal that mass media does of the Reva-project and the police work with the project is negatively emphasized in the articles as they use words like “disgusting”, “a death machine” and “unacceptable” when they describe the project or the police work with the project. However we can recognize a discrepancy between the mass media and police statements in mass media as well as the complementary interview we conducted with the police officer.

Inre utlänningskontroll : En etnologisk studie av svenska polisers berättelser om och erfarenheter av arbetet / Internal Control of Aliens : An ethnological study of how Swedish police officers talk about and experience their workÖquist Haugen, Paulina January 2016 (has links)
Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera svenska polisers berättelser om och erfarenheter av inre utlänningskontroll. Jag har dels varit intresserad av hur poliserna diskursivt konstruerar bilder av sig själva samt dem som ska hittas, men också hur poliserna förhåller sig till uppgiften att utföra inre utlänningskontroll. Jag har utfört tre intervjuer med poliser som arbetar inom gränspolisen samt en kompletterande intervju med en närpolis. Jag har utgått från ett diskursanalytiskt angreppssätt som betonar att våra sätt att tala på spelar en aktiv roll i skapandet och förändringen av vår omvärld, våra identiteter och sociala relationer. I den här studien har det framkommit att intervjupersonerna förhåller sig till en politisk/juridisk diskurs som gör deras arbete betydelsefullt. Deras arbete styrs av hur lagarna ser ut och påverkar även hur de uppfattar subjektpositioner och därmed vilka de ska hitta. Genom att konstruera gruppen av ”stackare” kan arbetet med att utföra inre utlänningskontroll legitimeras. Intervjupersonerna är medvetna om att olika begrepp kan användas för att föra olika politiska strategier och diskussioner, men vittnar dock om en känsla av att de själva är ”neutrala”. De gör det de blir tillsagda eftersom de betraktar sig som under polisorganisationens ledning, som i sin tur betraktas som en institution under regeringen/riksdagen.

Jakten i tunnelbanan : En studie av nyhetsrapportering kring REVA-projektet och polisen våren 2013Larsson, Charlotta, Ljungberg, Malin January 2013 (has links)
Studien undersöker hur polisen som institution kan synas och gestaltas inom journalistiken. Syftet var att studera hur Dagens Nyheter, Aftonbladet och Sydsvenskan väljer att gestalta och inrama ett enstaka fall där polisen är inblandad, i detta fall Reva-projektet, där polisen är en mycket stor aktör. Tidningarnas rapportering, under tidsperioden 1 januari till 31 mars 2013, har studerats utifrån 114 artiklar kvantitativt och har även kvalitativt tittats närmare på, utifrån aspekter viktiga för studiens syfte. Artiklarna har analyserats och tolkats utifrån faktorer väsentliga för framing theory eller med svensk benämning gestaltningsteori. En klar inramning som tidningarna väljer att göra kring polisen är deras "jakt" på människor. Detta ligger som en röd tråd i alla tidningar. Aftonbladet och Dagens Nyheter har mer sensationsrubriker, medan Sydsvenskan fokuserar mer på debatten kring Reva-projektet som helhet. Gemensamt ramar tidningarna in polisen som ägare av Reva-projektet. En negativ gestaltning bidrar till och gynnar uppfattningen att polisen är orsaken till debatten, demonstrationer och jakten samt de berördas rädsla. Ansvaret blir polisens.

Previous issue date: 2002-05-08T00:00:00Z / O presente trabalho estuda o arcabouço teórico dos diferentes indicadores de criação de valor para os acionistas e avalia a relevância e eficácia dessas métricas como reais indicadores de geração de valor. Foram escolhidas para este trabalho cinco medidas de geração de valor que englobam métodos tradicionais e métodos modernos de avaliação: RR (Retorno Residual), RRA (Retomo Residual Ajustado), ROE (Return on Equity), ROI (Return on Investment) e LAJIDA (Lucro antes de Juros, Impostos, Depreciação e Amortização ou EBITDA). A geração de valor para o acionista foi quantificada pela variável RT (Retorno Total) definida como sendo a variação do preço da ação mais seu fluxo de dividendos. O poder de previsão é analisado através de medidas estatísticas, que visam avaliar o conteúdo informacional das medidas de criação de valor em termos absolutos, relativos e incrementais, seguindo metodologia utilizada por BIDDLE, BOWEN & W ALLACE (1997) e CHEN & DODD (1997,1998) para o mercado de capitais norte-americano. Para tanto, são realizadas análises de correlação e diversas regressões: lineares, múltiplas e forward regressions. Diversas análises de sensibilidade também são desenvolvidas, incluindo variações no cálculo do custo de capital, retirada de outliers, defasagens temporais, ajuste da variável dependente pelo índice de mercado e análise de subgrupos anuais e qüinqüenais. A amostra foi composta por 88 empresas com ações negociadas na Bovespa, examinadas ao longo de 10 anos, de janeiro de 1990 a dezembro de 1999, gerando uma matriz com aproximadamente 880 observações. Os resultados apresentam baixas correlações entre os indicadores de valor e o retorno total das ações, sendo que as diversas regressões efetuadas geram R2 reduzidos, como os resultados apresentados nos trabalhos utilizados como referência. Nas regressões lineares o LAJIDA apresenta-se como o melhor indicador e nas regressões múltiplas otimiza-se a explicação do RT ao utilizar ROI, LAJIDA e RRA em conjunto. Conclui-se que o mercado de capitais parece não utilizar de forma imperativa os indicadores de valor como ferramenta de previsão, possivelmente, porque eles mostram a realidade passada, enquanto o mercado busca explicações nas expectativas futuras. Mesmo assim, esses indicadores de valor são importantes, como ferramenta de gestão, para direcionar as atitudes dos administradores das companhias na linha da criação de valor para os acionistas. / The present study examines the theoretical background of different methods for evaluating value generation for shareholders, and also evaluates the relevance and effectiveness of those metrics as real drivers of value generation. Five performance evaluation metrics were chosen for this study: Residual Income, Adjusted Residual Income, ROE, ROI and EBIDT A. Those performance measures were analyzed as independent variables explaining the creation of value for shareholders, measured as Total Shareholder Retum, TSR, defined as change in stock price plus dividends. The analysis is performed using different testing procedures for a sample of 88 Brazilian companies, along a ten year period, from January 1990 until December 1999. The statistical procedures were based on studies performed by B IDDLE, BOWEN & W ALLACE ( 1997) and CHEN & DODD ( 1997, 1998) for the American capital market. The empírical analyses were based on correlation tests and linear and multiple regressions for the pooled intertemporal sample of 880 firm-years. Numerous sensitivity analyes were also performed, including evaluation of cross sectional groups, withdrawing :of outliers, changes in the methodologies for the calculation of the cost of capital and information lags. The results show low correlation between the five metrics studied and the TSR. The regressions presented low values for R2 , not far from the results found in the studies used as reference. The EBITDA was the best indicator found in the linear regression analyses and for the multiple analyses the use of ROI, EBITDA and Adjusted Residual Income together provided the best information content. The capital markets does not seem to use the value creation metrics as prevision tools, possibly because they evaluate the past performance while the market is based on expectations for future returns. Nevertheless, those performance measures are of great value as managing tools in order to set goals, define bonus packages, and align the objectives of management team and shareholders.

The Misleading DebateLarsson, Mikael January 2014 (has links)
In the year of 2013, Swedish media accused the Swedish police for the implementation of discriminatory internal controls of foreigners, in Malmö, Stockholm and other places across Sweden. The controls were soon to be linked to project REVA. In this thesis, I examine how the internal controls of foreigners measure up to the Swedish Aliens act and whether or not the accusations of discriminatory controls against individuals with a perceived foreign appearance, are correct. The examination includes a legal approach, where I use practical legal method to analyze the provisions of the Aliens act, as well as an evolving conceptual approach, where I evolve the concept of discrimination in order to apply it to the controls. I found that it is possible to link project REVA to the external work with the internal controls of foreigners, despite the denial from people involved. I also found that, because of unclear regulations regarding the implementation of the internal controls of foreigners, it is not possible to assess how the controls measure up to the Swedish Aliens act. Some of the controls, most probably, can be identified as directly and indirectly discriminatory. The problem with this statement is the difficulty to measure police officers decision-making in order to confirm the discriminatory behavior. However, I argue that it is possible to claim that the Aliens act might be indirectly discriminatory. The results of this thesis indicate that the Swedish police should review their practices regarding internal controls of foreigners.

From Suffragettes to Grandmothers: A Qualitative Textual Analysis of Newspaper Coverage of Five Female Politicians in Utah's Deseret News and Salt Lake TribuneCox, Holly M. 01 December 2008 (has links)
This thesis examines press coverage in the Deseret News and Salt Lake Tribune of five female politicians in Utah history: Martha Hughes Cannon (1896), Reva Beck Bosone (1948), Karen Shepherd (1992), Enid Greene Waldholtz (1994), and Olene S. Walker (2003). A total of 438 articles were reviewed using qualitative textual analysis. Coverage by candidate varied, though it was not in general overtly biased concerning candidate gender. However, the press did call attention to the gender of candidate and gendered commentary was present. The press also called attention to the rarity of women running for high political office and addressed the ability of candidates to balance the roles of wife/mother/homemaker with a political career. This thesis contributes to the overall understanding of newspaper coverage of female politicians and provides a window into the cultural as well as political history of Utah. Suggestions for further research about media coverage of female politicians are made.
