The main question in this article is how and where subversion is possible. As a point of departure the author uses the work of Tiina Rosenberg, a researcher of theatre and gender at Stockholm university, who presents a theory on subversion, or "queer moment", produced by women in male clothing on stage. The article argues against the idea that this genre disturbs the heterosexual normativity and order of gender; instead it seems to reproduce that same order, partially through the relations between the characters and partially through the reason for female cross-dressing presented both within and outside these particular dramaturgies. Three examples are analysed: the stage play Twelfth Night (Shakespeare) and the motion pictures Yentl (Singer/Streisand) and Victor,Victoria! (Edwards, Hoemburg/Edwards). By focusing on both the male character who finds himself attached to the disguised woman, and on the female character who is attracted to the same, the author concludes that while the male character does not question his sexuality but rather the gender of his 'male' friend, the female character is easily led astray by superficial words and clothing and hence reproducing the stereotypical female behaviour. The male character, on the other hand, reproduces male (hetero)- sexuality as potent and capable of 'seeing' through any disguise. Hence, heteronormativity is found to play an important part in the entire dramaturgy-not only in the ending scene where everything is set right through falling disguises and weddings. However, the subversive part of the cross-dressing woman on stage or in film is not completely disregarded and the author presents, by using the theories of Teresa de Lauretis and Judith Butler, a possible identification with a woman in male clothing as a way of expressing a (lesbian) desire based on a fetishist use of male clothing as a symbol of disavowing both female and male fallocentric desire.

The three silent films 'Gustaf III och Bellman' (1908), 'En afton hos Gustaf III på Stockholms slott' and 'Två konungar' (1925) are illuminating examples of how the Gustavian period was reinvented, negotiated and visualized at the beginning of the twentieth century. In the article, object-based and visual analysis of the films, together with reception studies, are used to explore the production of period film and the strategies film directors developed in order to mediate a feeling of authenticity on screen. These strategies, based on a performative approach to authenticity, shared a number of similarities with professional art-historical practice at the turn of the twentieth century. The three case studies reveal not only how the Gustavian period was staged, but also the overlapping professional structures where filmmakers relied on specialists in the organization of material things, for example museum curators and art historians. Through their authority as experts they were able to help authenticate film productions and facilitate access for the film crew to historic sites. Likewise, the production of period films helped shape public history and influenced the management of heritage sites and museums, initiating reconstruction projects, for example.

The goal of this thesis is to analyse whether the method “Observiaire” is of any use for traffic analysis. The method consists of analysing film material, preferably before and after changes are made to an area, by answering a survey for the users that are observed within the population. The method also opens up for deeper qualitative analyses which are rooted in the quantitative data collected from the survey-study. In this study we analyse the method by applying it to the case study of the changes made at Götgatan in Stockholm, where a green wave was implemented and the bicycle road widened. By analysing how the changes has affected the cyclists we then compare the data with the results one can expect from the more used methods such as flow measurement and research of travel habits. The result of this comparison shows that the more common analysis methods leave a void for which kind of data they can gather, a void that the Observiaire method can help to fill. With the data obtained from this study we then show that the changes made at Götgatan has a positive effecton its bicyclists. By comparing the changes with data collected through interviews and a literature study we argue that a focus on enhancing the experience for cyclists can have a positive effect, both for the cyclists but also socioeconomically.

Bakgrund: Småbolagseffekten påvisades först av Banz (1981) och Reinganum (1981) som kom fram tillatt småbolag genererade högre avkastning än stora bolag under samma period. Effekten syntes även stabil över tiden vilket ej är förenligt med Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) och den effektiva marknadshypotesen (EMH). Syfte: Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om det finns någon påvisbar småbolagseffekt påNasdaq OMX Stockholm och huruvida den i så fall har varit konstant under studieperioden. Vidare syftar studien till att undersöka huruvida relativvärdering av småbolagsaktier framgångsrikt kan användas för att generera överavkastning. Metod: Studien baseras på en kvantitativ metodansats med ett deduktivt angreppssätt. Behövd datasamlas in och sammanställs för att sedan användas för att skapa portföljer som studeras och analyseras baserat på prestation. Slutsats: Studien  har  ej  kunnat  påvisa  en  småbolagseffekt  under  hela  studieperioden.  Underhögkonjunktur har dock en småbolagseffekt kunnat påvisas. Vidare har studien kunnat visa att relativvärdering av småbolagsaktier genererar både absolut och riskjusterad överavkastning jämfört med studiens småbolagsportfölj och marknadsindex (AFGX). Så kallade värdebolag, det vill säga bolag med låga värden på P/BV-, P/E- och P/S-talen, är de som genererat högstavkastning.
Background: The small firm-effect was first demonstrated by Banz (1981) and Reinganum (1981) who found that small caps generated higher returns than large companies during the same period. The effect also seemed stable over time, which is not compatible with the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) and the efficient market hypothesis (EMH). Aim: The purpose of this study is to examine whether there is any evidence of a small firm-effect on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm and whether it in such case has been constant over the study period. Furthermore, the study aims to examine whether relative valuation of small caps can be successfully used to generate excess returns. Methodology: The study is based on a quantitative method with a deductive approach. The required data is collected and compiled and then used to create portfolios which are then studied and analyzed based on their respective performance. Results: The study has not been able to detect a small firm-effect throughout the study period. During the boom, however, a small firm-effect could be detected. Furthermore, this study has shown that relative valuation of small caps generates both absolute and risk adjusted excess returns compared to the market index (AFGX). So called value stocks, companies with low values on the P/BV, P/E and P/S multiples, are the ones that generated the highest returns.

Forskningsproblem: Det har uppmärksammats en ökad oro bland Big 4-byråerna över den tilltagande konkurrensen på revisionsmarknaden och tendensen att bolag väljer att byta revisionsbyrå mer frekvent. Det finns ett behov i att förklara varför bolag väljer att frivilligt byta revisionsbyrå. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att förklara varför bolag frivilligt väljer att byta revisionsbyrå. Metod 15 hypoteser härleds utifrån befintlig forskning och teori inom området för revisionsbyråbyten. Dessa prövas genom en kombinerad enkät- och dokumentstudie av totalt 100 bolag för perioden mellan 2010-2014. Resultat: Av studiens totalt 100 bolag visade det sig att 33 bolag (33 %) bytt revisionsbyrå under perioden mellan 2010-2014. 14 av studiens 15 hypoteser förkastas i hypotesprövningen. Kunskapsbidrag: I den statistiska analysen visas variablerna revisionskostnad, byte av ledning, bristfälligt samarbete och tredje parts påtryckningar bli signifikanta i att förklara ett byte av revisionsbyrå. Endast variabeln bristfälligt samarbete uppvisar dock ett korrekt förutspått samband, där ett ökat bristfälligt samarbete mellan revisor och bolagsledning ökar sannolikheten för ett byte av revisionsbyrå.
Problem: Increased concern regarding an enlarged competition and more frequent audit firm switching behavior has been noticed among the Big 4-audit firms. There is a need to explain why companies voluntarily choose to switch audit firm. Purpose: The aim of the study is to explain why companies voluntarily choose to switch audit firm. Method: 15 hypothesis are derived from existent research and theory in the area of audit firm switching. They are tested through a combined survey- and document study of 100 companies during the period of 2010-2014. Results: The study showed that 33 out of 100 companies (33 %) switched their audit firm during the period of 2010-2014. 14 out of 15 hypothesis are rejected in the study. Contribution: The statistical analysis showed that the variables audit fee, change in management, inadequate working relationship and third party influences are significant in explaining an audit firm switch. However, the only variable to show a correctly predicted relationship is inadequate working relationship, which implicates that an increased inadequate working relationship between the auditor and management leads to an increased probability of an audit firm switch.

Denna studie fokuserar på företagsstorleks inverkan på sambandet mellan Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) och Corporate Financial Performance (CFP). Huvudsyftet är att mäta om effekten av CSR på CFP skiljer sig mellan små och stora företag noterade på Nasdaq OMX Nordic Stockholm. Perioden som studeras är åren 2006-2009 samt år 2011. För att utröna om företagsstorlek har inverkan på sambandet tillämpas modererande regressionsanalys som går ut på att fastställa huruvida någon interaktionseffekt förekommer eller ej. Vi kontrollerar även för variablerna bransch och tid. Efter exkluderingar och bortfall består urvalet av 286 företag listade på Small-Cap, Mid-Cap och Large-Cap under den studerade tidsperioden. Resultaten visar att företagsstorlek påverkar sambandet mellan CSR och CFP, även om det är oklart på vilket sätt. Olika mått på CFP påvisar skilda riktningar av interaktionseffekten.
This study focuses on the interaction effect of firm-size on the relationship between Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and Corporate Financial Performance (CFP). The main purpose is to determine if the effect of CSR on CFP differ between small and large firms listed on Nasdaq OMX Nordic Stockholm. The studied period is the years between 2006 and 2009 plus 2011. In order to investigate if firm-size moderates the relationship between CSR and CFP, we apply moderated regression analysis which is used to determine whether or not an interaction effect is present. We also control for other variables such as industry and time. We consider a final sample of 286 firms listed on Small-Cap, Mid-Cap and Large-Cap during the observed time period. The results show that firm-size does have an interaction effect on the relationship between CSR and CFP, even though it is not clear in which way. Diverse measurements of CFP yield different direction of the interaction effect.

Syfte: Studien har utrett om aktiesplit genomförda på Stockholmsbörsen under åren 2004-2008 genererat överavkastning och i sådana fall om det har funnits några skillnader i överavkastning beroende på företagens storlek. Teori: Den effektiva marknadshypotesen, framförallt i dess semistarka form, har utgjort en teoretisk referensram för arbetet. Metod: En kvantitativ deduktiv forskningsansats har tillämpats med eventstudiemetodik som grund. Undersökningen behandlar en femårsperiod mellan 2004-2008 där ett urval av 56 stycken splitar mötte uppsatta kriterier. Dessa delades in i tre undergrupper beroende på bolagens kapitalstorlek vid splitgenomförandet. Kursdata för 250 dagar innan spliten och 250 dagar efter har samlats in för berörda bolag med hänsyn till splitdagen. OMXSPI har använts som jämförelseindex. Resultat: Resultatet tillsammans med hypotesprövning visar att överavkastning i samband med aktiesplit har påträffats för hela populationen under mätperioden. Ett möjligt samband mellan storleken på bolag och omfattningen överavkastning har även upptäckts. Den enskilt största överavkastningen uppmättes på splitdagen. Analys: En analys av resultaten pekar på att marknaden uppfattat aktiesplit som en positiv nyhet och i linje med tidigare forskning har det funnits överavkastning i tiden runt en aktiesplit. Vid uteslutande av en undergrupp som inte klarat hypotestestet kunde sambandet mellan företagsstorlek och omfattningen överavkastning till viss del bekräftas som negativt. Slutsats: Investerare har kunnat generera överavkastning i samband med aktiesplit på Stockholmsbörsen mellan 2004-2008. Resultatet tyder på ett negativt samband mellan företagsstorlek och överavkastning, däremot kan inte sambandet bekräftas tillfullo.
Purpose: The study has investigated whether or not stock splits on the Stockholm Stock Exchange during the years 2004-2008 generated positive abnormal return and in such case, has there been any difference in the positive abnormal return depending on firm size. Theory: The efficient market hypothesis, especially in its semi-strong form, has provided a theoretical framework for the essay. Method: A quantitative deductive research approach is applied with event study methodology used as basis. The study concerns a five-year period 2004-2008, where a selection of 56 splits met set criteria. These were divided into three groups depending on their capital size at the split date. The price data for 250 days before the split, and 250 days after were collected for the companies with regard to split day. The same data was collected for OMXSPI that was used as a benchmark. Results: The result together with hypothesis testing shows that positive abnormal return associated with stock split has been found in the overall population. A possible correlation between the firm size and the extent of positive abnormal returns has also been discovered. The single greatest positive abnormal return was measured on the split date. Analysis: An analysis of the results indicates that the market perceived stock split as positive news. There has been a positive abnormal return around the time of a stock split in line with previous research. The exclusion of a subgroup that failed hypothesis test revealed a partly confirmed negative relationship between firm size and the amount of positive abnormal returns. Conclusion: Investors have been able to generate positive abnormal returns in association with stock split on the Stockholm Stock Exchange from 2004 to 2008. The results suggest a negative correlation between firm size and positive abnormal returns, however, the correlation is not fully confirmed.
