<p>Denna uppsats har undersökt vilka förmågor som är centrala för en chef att besitta för att bli en effektiv chef inom manöverkrigföringen. Förmågorna som denna uppsats identifierat som centrala är: Kreativitet, initiativkraft/handlingskraft, självständighet, god utbildningsståndpunkt inom taktik och stridsteknik samt förmåga i att tillämpa uppdragstaktik. Dessa förmågor anses av litteraturen som studerats i denna uppsats som de mest centrala för chefen att besitta. Vidare så har uppsatsen undersökt vilka utbildningsmetoder som kan användas för att utveckla de ovannämnda förmågorna hos elever. Det finns en mängd metoder som rekommenderas men de som anses som mest effektiva är dubbelsidiga övningar och muntliga stridsövningar under förutsättningen att elevernahar en grundlagd utbildning i taktik och stridsteknik. Oavsett vilken metod som används så får det aldrig finnas ett facit för vilken lösning som är den rätta utan det som är centralt är att utvärdera beslutsfattarens tankeprocess. Det vikiga är att tankeprocessen har en sammanhängande logik med spårbarhet från tilldelad uppgift vidare till en analys och slutligen till agerandet. Utefter de centrala förmågorna samt vilka utbildningsmetoder som anses effektiva så analyserades sedan Grundkurs plutonchef i insatsorganisationen (amfibie), 1OP090. Analysen visade att utbildningen har använt många av de utbildningsmetoder som anses som effektiva. Det som identifierades som brister var att lärarna måste ändra sitt synsätt från att försöka få fram den bästa lösningen när t ex muntliga stridsövningar genomfördes och istället ge feedback på elevernas tankeprocess. Samt att de bör låta eleverna få tillämpa sina planer på något vis för att på så sätt lära sig vad som var bra och vad somvar mindre bra med dem. Önskvärt vore också att en dubbelsidig övning hade genomförts då detta anses som den mest effektiva utbildningsmetoden.</p> / <p>This essay has examined the abilities that are essential for a commander to possess in order to become effective in maneuver warfare. The central abilities that this essay has identified are the following; creativity, initiative, decisiveness, autonomy, high standards in tactics, military technology and the application of mission type tactics. These abilities were identified as essential capabilities for commanders. Furthermore, the essay has studied the training methods that can be used to develop the previously mentioned abilities of students. There are numerous methods that are recommended, but those which are considered most effective are two-sided combat drills and oral exercises on the assumption that students have training in tactics and military technology. Regardless of training methods used, the tactical solution is less important to evaluate than the decision-maker's thought process. It is important that the thought process has coherent and logic traceability from the assigned task to analysis and action. Along the core capabilities and the training methods that are considered effective, as analyzed in Grundkurs plutonchef i insatsorganisationen (amfibie), 1OP090, the analysis showed that the training has used many of the training methods that are considered effective. It identified that the teachers must change the approach from trying to obtain the best solution when, for example verbal combat drills were carried out and instead provide feedback on students' thought processes. Furthermore, they should allow students to apply their plans, and make them learn by their mistakes. It would also be desirable that the double-sided exercise had been carried out to the fullest since this is considered as the most effective training method.</p>

Syftet med denna uppsats är att studera bildspråket i fyra skräcknoveller av John Ajvide Lindqvist och Anders Fager. De utvalda novellerna av Lindqvist är "By på höjden" (2006) och "Majken" (2006), samt "En punkt på Västerbron" (2011) och "Pigornas trappa" (2011) av Fager. Valet av material och författare har sin grund i att de båda är verksamma inom samma genre men skiljer sig avsevärt från varandra stilistiskt.   Syftet med vår undersökning är att granska till vilka metaforiska domäner och bildled författarna förflyttar begrepp för att skapa det ”otäcka.” Som grund för vår analys använder vi oss av George Lakoffs och Mark Johnsons teori om konceptuella metaforer samt Lennart Hellspongs modell för metaforanalys. I teoriavsnittet presenteras, förutom konceptuella metaforer, allmänna teorier om olika typer av bildspråk som liknelser och metonymier. Metodavsnittet beskriver Hellspongs modell och hur vi ämnar använda den samt en kort redogörelse för kvalitativ undersökning. Metodavsnittet innehåller även författarpresentationer och sammanfattningar av de utvalda verken.   Vår analys visar att båda författarna rör sig i vardagliga domäner och begrepp för att skapa det otäcka istället för det fantastiska eller sensationella. I diskussionen resonerar vi kring analysen och vilken inverkan metaforerna har på uppbyggandet av skräcken ur kulturellt och kontextuellt perspektiv. Vi uppmanar även till vidare forskning av denna, i Sverige, nya och växande genre.

Thank you. / The problem of the dissertation is to discover what John Wesley meant by perfect love. Statements of both approbation and criticism regarding his doctrine are usually made from the vantage of various present-day interpretations. The goal of this study is to describe the type of perfection and love which was uppermost in Wesley's thought. The method used is motif analysis as it is developed by Anders Nygren in his book, Agape and Eros. Nygren's method and motifs (Agape, the New Testament motif; Eros, the Greek motif; Nomos, the Judaistic motif; and Caritas, Augustine's union of the Greek and New Testament motifs) are examined to determine their usefulness for research. While Nygren's description of Agape or New Testament love is not sufficiently complete, his description of the contrasting ways and systems of thought is sufficiently demonstrated to warrant the use of motif research . The method proved to be valuable in the examination of Wesley's thought [TRUNCATED] / 2031-01-01

Anders Nygren's Agape and Eros is a classical work in the history of Christian ideas of love. It has inspired the academic debate on the relationship between Agape and Eros, while the former is a core concept in Christian theology and ethics, the latter represents the ancient Greek humanistic ethos. Nygren points out that agape and eros encounter and mingle with each other at the theoretical level. However, he suggests that in the Christian idea of love and theology, the erotic ingredient, which invades in and weakens the pure original meaning of agape, should be eliminated. In achieving this, he attempts to deny the role of eros, which manifests the existential characteristics of human being, in the Christian ethical life. Thus Nygren not only makes agape and eros distinctive in their respective meanings, but also separates them in human existential situation. / In the history of Christian theology, we can find "Tradition of Separating" which tends to separate agape from eros like Nygren does. Meanwhile, there is "Tradition of Uniting" claiming to unite the two kinds of love and Tillich's idea of love is a typical example. Therefore, an investigation of Tillich's idea of love, especially its elaboration on the agape-eros relationship, is helpful and constructive not merely to a deeper understanding of Tillich's systematic theology, but also a comprehensive and balanced understanding of the two trends mentioned above in the history of Christian theology. / In this thesis, we examine Tillich's idea of love within the context of history of ideas and trace its historical roots, so that the tradition of uniting agape-eros in the history of ideas, mainly in that of Christian theology can be demonstrated. On the one hand, we try to retrieve the Courtly Love tradition in Medieval-Renaissance ages and Marcilio Ficino's Neo-Platonist understanding of eros in Renaissance as the historical sources to the particular meaning of Tillich's eros. On the other hand, our discussion makes particular reference to Gregory of Nyssa and John of the Cross, two representatives of the Christian spiritual theologians, whose spiritual writings on love will be considered as the historical roots of Tillich's agape-eros union within the Christian tradition. At last, the present study attempts to show that the modern application of Tillich's uniting agape with eros in Christian theology and ethics, along with related secular philosophy, revitalize this "Tradition of Uniting". / Paul Tillich handles the relationship of agape-eros in his systematic theology in a way radically different from the Nygrenian way. In dealing with the relationship between agape and eros, Tillich proposes a "quadric interactive structure of love" in which the four qualities of love namely libido, eros, philia and agape united and synergized in one love. In this structure, agape uplifts eros (including libido, eros and philia qualities) as divine-human power from the ambiguities of life into the unambiguous transcendent unity of life; while eros substantiates the abstract agape by clothing it in substantial appearance common to human existential feature. / 王濤. / 呈交日期: 2006年5月. / 論文(哲學博士)--香港中文大學, 2006. / 參考文獻(p. 282-301). / Cheng jiao ri qi: 2006 nian 5 yue. / Adviser: Lai Pan Chiu. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 67-11, Section: A, page: 4225. / Electronic reproduction.

<p>Having a functioning internal communication is necessary for the survival and existence of every company. Traditional communication channels are for example meetings, noteboards and personnel newspapers. During the last ten years we have witnessed an explosion of new channels, who are based on information technology. IT is a natural part in new IT-companies, like Framfab and Icon Medialab, but what role does IT have in a large, manufacturing company with a long history? The purpose with this thesis is to investigate how IT has influenced the internal communication in a company. With this thesis we want to contribute to a developed understanding of communication within companies and discuss what role IT can play for internal communication in the future. We have chosen to study Akzo Nobel and have interviewed employees in different business units to investigate their view on communication and the influence of IT. We found that IT has had a relatively great impact on the internal communication and that the new technology often work as a complement to the traditional communication channels. We believe that IT will lead to an increased amount of written communication and that the communication will be detached from persons. There is a risk that the amount of information will increase and that this will make it harder for the individual to find relevant information. For IT to be an efficient channel for companies in the future, we believe that companies must educate employees regarding technology, pedagogic and written presentation.</p>

The present thesis examines and defines the theology embodied in his works, especially in his hymns, showing that Frostenson occupies a central and unique position in the Swedish 20th Century Christian tradition. The study charts Frostenson´s life and work from poetry to hymn, and draws attention to the growth of a long-standing, significant authorship, that has served to make the Christian gospel accessible, relevant, and down-to-earth. Much has happened in the last century. The 1900s have been characterised by enormous changes, social, cultural and public, involving both individuals and nations. Matters of opinion and aims, union and dissension, have in a special way been put at the centre of things. This is also reflected in Anders Frostenson´s work.
