1. Medikalisering av livets svårigheter: en diskursanalytisk studie av hur psykisk (o)hälsa representeras i riksdagsmotioner hösten 2022
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionenSammanfattning : The aim of this study is to provide understanding on how the discursive construction of mental health and illness in politics relates to health policy and in turn to inequalities in mental health. Based on Carol Bacchis discourse analytical framework WPR, I analyze policy documents from the Swedish parliament in fall 2022 in order to investigate how mental health and illness is represented in the political discourse and what potential effects these representations have on inequalities in health.

2. The evolutionary origins of consciousness

3. Bortom maskinen : Jakten på en ny livsmetafor under den tvärvetenskapliga konferensen Beyond reductionism 1968
Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för idé- och lärdomshistoriaSammanfattning : This essay examines the role of metaphoric thought at the symposium Beyond reductionism: New perspectives in the life sciences organised by the Hungarian-born writer Arthur Koestler in 1968.

4. RÖRELSEN ÄR ALLT Socialdemokraternas ideologiska utveckling från 1960 till 2013
Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionenSammanfattning : In this thesis I examine the ideological evolution of the Swedish social democratic party Socialdemokraterna during the period from 1960 until 2013 given that prior research suggests that a change in party ideology could be expected during the period. The thesis draws on prior literature which assumes party ideology to be flexible and prone to change over time, partly due to the tension between politics and ideology. LÄS MER
5. Från Potebnja till Barthes - den tidiga formalismens materialisering : Återproblematiseringar av Viktor Šklovskijs metodimmanenta princip
Master-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Institutionen för slaviska och baltiska språk, finska, nederländska och tyskaSammanfattning : In the course of this thesis, decisive problematizations, in the Foucauldian sense, around Viktor Šklovskij’s early Russian Formalism shall be the object of re-problematizations. More precisely, a careful look will be taken at re-problematizations around theoretical aspects regarding Šklovskij’s paradigmatic reductionist model, primarily as it is introduced in his article Art as device (1917), described most notably by Aage Hansen-Löve and Wolf Schmid in Der Russische Formalismus (1978) and Slavische Erzähltheorie (2010), Elemente der Narratologie (2014) as well as Grundthemen der Literaturwissenschaft: Erzählen (2018) respectively.
