I den här uppsatsen kommer korruptionens påverkan på Bosnien-Hercegovinas demokrati att analyseras. Korruptionen har ett starkt fäste inom landet då det ses som en vanlig del av samhället både från medborgare och politikerns synvinkel, detta ses som ett hinder för fortsatt utveckling på flera nivåer. Tanken finns, om att Daytonavtalet möjliggör för korruption på grund av avtalets stiftande av landets komplexa struktur och uppdelning. Uppsatsen metod är en fallstudie, där landets korrupta tillstånd kommer analyseras utifrån ett teoretiskt ramverk. Korruptionens påverkan på demokratin kommer att analyseras utifrån Marks Warrens (2004) teori: den moderna tanken om korruption, där korruptionens effekt inom olika domäner i samhället analyseras. Domänerna som undersöks är, den rättsliga makten, den legitima makten, den verkställande makten, den offentliga makten och det civila samhället. Utifrån en teoretisk analys av dessa domäner dras sedan slutsatsen om korruptionen haft någon påverkan på demokratin i landet. Trots demokratiska val är demokratin svår att upprätthålla om de demokratiska normerna i Bosnien-Hercegovina bryts genom korruption. Demokratin har påverkats starkt inom de ovannämnda domänerna och korruptionen är ett hinder för demokratins existens i Bosnien-Hercegovina. / In this paper, the impact of corruption on Bosnia-Herzegovina's democratic development will be analyzed. Corruption has a strong foothold in the country where it is seen as a normal part of society both from citizens and politicians' point of view; this is seen as an obstacle to further development at multiple levels. An existing idea is, that the Dayton agreement is enabling for corruption, because of the agreement's founding of the country's complex structure and division. The paper method is a case study, where the country's level of corruption will be analyzed from a theoretical framework. Bribery impact on democracy will be analyzed from Mark Warren's theory (2004): the modern idea of corruption, where corruption efficacies in various domains of society are analyzed. The domains under consideration are the legal power, legitimate power, the executive power, the public authorities and civil society. Based on a theoretical analysis of these domains, a conclusion is drawn about the corruptions impact of the democracy in the country. Despite democratic elections, democratic standards are difficult to maintain in Bosnia-Herzegovina, a country broken by corruption. The democracy has been strongly influenced in the domains mentioned, and corruption is an obstacle for democracy to exist in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

This study explores the profound influence of the South on the poetry of Robert Penn Warren and creates an oral interpretation lecture-recital script illustrating this influences. The study shows Warren's poetry to be worthy of consideration. The study also defines oral interpretation, lecture recital, and poet-centered programs. Included with a biographical sketch of Warren is a chronological listing of works and events in his life. There are discussions of several poems which illustrate the influence of the Southern landscape and several which show the influence of the Southern people. The forty-five minute lecture-recital script is included as an appendix,

Neste trabalho foi desenvolvido um conjunto de ferramentas computacionais, em linguagem de programação Python, para a análise de perfis de difração de raios X, tanto para o estudo quanto para obtenção dos valores microestruturais como tamanhos médios de cristalitos e microdeformações, através de dos métodos de: Scherrer, Single-Line, Williamson-Hall e Warren-Averbach. Para aplicar os métodos de análise de perfis, foram também implementados métodos de remoção da contribuição instrumental pelo método de Stokes e ajuste de funções, remoção de ruídos pelo método de Savitzky-Golay, correção da radiação de fundo pelo método de ajuste linear, correção do fator de Lorentz-Polarização e correção do dubleto Kalfa2 . / In this work, a set of computational tools was developed, in the Python programming language, for the analysis of X-ray diffraction profiles, both for the study and for obtaining the microstructural values, as well as the mean values of crystallites and microdeformations, using Scherrer, Single-Line, Williamson-Hall and Warren-Averbach. To apply the methods of profile analysis, methods were also implemented for the removal of instrumental contributions by the Stokes method and adjustment of functions, removal by the Savitzky-Golay method, correction of the background radiation by the linear adjustment method, correction of the factor of Lorentz-Polarization and correction of dubleto Kalfa2 .

A breakout star among American progressives in the recent past, Elizabeth Warren has quickly gone from a law professor to a leading figure in Democratic politics. This paper analyzes Warren’s speech from before her time as a political figure to the present using the quantitative textual methodology established by Jones (2016) in order to see if Warren’s speech supports Jones’s assertion that masculine speech is the language of power. Ratios of feminine to masculine markers ultimately indicate that despite her increasing political sway, Warren’s speech becomes increasingly feminine instead. However, despite associations of feminine speech with weakness, Warren’s speech scores highly for expertise and confidence as its feminine scores increase. These findings relate to the relevant political context and have implications for presumptions of masculine speech as the standard for political power.
