1. Sexy 16-Year-Old Baby-Eater: Gendered, Sexualized, and Racialized Discourses in Exalted, Second Edition
Master-uppsats, Institutionen för tillämpad informationsteknologiSammanfattning : Previous research finds roleplaying games, as well as the wider spectrum of geek culture that they exist within, to be defined by discourses favoring a white, heterosexual, cis-male viewpoint, drawing up and reproducing stereotypes and tropes that are inherently misogynist, homophobic, and racist. Heretofore, research into discourses of gender, sexuality, and race in roleplaying games has focused overwhelmingly on market leader Dungeons & Dragons (1971- ongoing), largely neglecting to scrutinize other well-established titles that may adhere to or break from the same tendencies.

3. In (H)Arm's Way : A Look Into the Culture of the Defense and Security Industry
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för kulturantropologi och etnologiSammanfattning : Through an examination of the businesses and people that support war-making, collectively known as the defense and security industry, this thesis reveals the controlling processes at work that make the business of war palatable to those who work within the industry. Three controlling processes are examined: (1) The industry’s culturally specific language; a barrier built with syntax, preventing both entry from outsiders and exit by insiders, allowing for institutionalized insanity to set in while also legitimizing the business pursuits of these companies as normal and acceptable; (2) The scientific pursuit and technology itself, supported and maintained by the exalted position the pursuit of science holds in Western society, and the assumption that technological innovation is always an intellectual and noble pursuit, which is critical to the industry’s survival; (3) The ideologies of Western liberal democracy that buttresses the industry; defined primarily by insecurity, assumed moral authority, and neoliberal capitalism/short-term self-interest.

Magister-uppsats, Högskolan i Gävle/ReligionsvetenskapSammanfattning : This paper sets out to investigate if there are any common factors between the childhood and religious perception with the Swedish poet Gunnar Ekelöf and if so, which are they and how can they be explained? To help in this understanding and explanation, theoretical pieces from psychoanalysis, egopsychology and the personality model are used as tools of interpretation. Psychoanalysis comes foremost from Freud, egopsychology from his successors and the personality model (swe. LÄS MER
