Abstract:

Cultural diversity is a subject that has been getting growing attention not just internationally but also in Sweden in the 21st century. The globalization of economies and the migration has dramatically increased opportunities while also affecting organizations in a manner that it requires it to be more open and accommodative towards a heterogeneous working environment. Unfortunately many companies do not see the advantages that cultural diversity could bring and how a well managed cultural diversity could essentially achieve competitive edge in the market. Therefore there is little to be foun

Abstract: Background: Cultural diversity within a workplace is increasingly becoming important as more organisations are embracing it within the global workforce. Some of its effect have been linked to performance outcomes according to past reviews and as a result, there are more suggestions on the need to study how various organisations manage their cultural diversity. Universities as an organisation has also blended in the internationalisation practice through human resources and diverse employees to form a part of the economic globalisation.

The rapidly growing cultural diversity of school children is an international trend that has been accompanied by concerns that teacher education programmes are not adequately preparing pre-service teachers for culturally diverse classrooms. This qualitative instrumental case study was conducted to gain deep insights into how one teacher education programme at a New Zealand university prepared pre-service teachers for cultural diversity. The study was conceptualised, conducted and analysed through a critical constructivist lens and underpinned by Vygotskian sociocultural theory. The primary res

Abstract:

This thesis provides a new conceptualisation of ethnomathematics which avoids some of the difficulties which emerge in the literature. In particular, work has been started on a philosophic basis for the field. There is no consistent view of ethnomathematics in the literature. The relationship with mathematics itself has been ignored, and the philosophical and theoretical background is missing. The literature also reveals the ethnocentricity implied by ethnomathematics as a field of study based in a culture which has mathematics as a knowledge category.

The idea that culture is a determinant of economic outcomes has regained in recent economic literature its full recognition. In this perspective, this analysis aims at discussing the impact of cultural diversity on economic outcomes and disentangling the mechanisms through which economic forces of globalization (trade, migration and capital flows) interplay with local cultural identities. Note that the analysis has a specific geographical focus, i.e.: European countries. The choice of Europe as target of the analysis depends on two main considerations: cultural issues are particularly importan

Abstract:

This thesis examines the debate about cultural relativism of human rights in the concrete context of the prohibition of torture, inhuman and degrading treatment as applied to criminal sentences. A study of the jurisprudence concerning the prohibition reveals that traditional legal methodology is unable to decide this debate unequivocally. It is argued that both an extreme uniformity in its interpretation as well as a complete lack of common standards are indefensible in the contemporary system of international law. Therefore, any modern interpretation of the prohibition has to strike a balance

Abstract:

<p>The aim of this study is to find out what keeps the foreign workers in Ericsson from achieving leading roles in the organization. The low presentation of the immigrants in Ericsson’s management team compared to the proportion of immigrants in lower positions, suggests that there might be a glass ceiling in the organization. By examining the existing obstacles that non-Swedish employees at Ericsson face in getting into the management team, we can come up with solutions that can make it easier to overcome these barriers.
