Det här arbetets syfte är att undersöka hur ett urval länder placerar och förändrar sigöver tid sett till överlevnads och traditionsdimensionen som presenteras av Inglehart& Baker. Detta sker genom en kvantitativ metod och mer specifikt en sekundäranalysav material sammanställt av World Value Survey. Till detta kommer en kopplinggöras till modernitet och postmodernitet.

Abstract:
The influential role Islam as a religion has on its architecture has not been a recent interest of mine, but as a born Muslim, it has always been an area of research I wished to explore. The content of this paper is therefore not based only on theoretical research done, but also on a personal religious belief system. As the Quran and Hadith (prophetic tradition) plays an integral role in the life of a Muslim, the architecture we inhabit is a vital element in achieving an environment conducive to the practice of an Islamic lifestyle. As it is understood that Islam is a 'way of life', the intent

Abstract:
Localism places a special value on the local, and is increasingly prominent as a political doctrine. The literature suggests localism operates in three ways: bottom-up, top down and mutualistic. To assess its impact, localism needs to be seen within the broader context of multi-level governance. Here localism is examined in relation to three major themes: place, public value (PV), and institutional design. Regarding place, a key distinction is drawn between old and new localism. Old localism is about established local government, while new localism highlights the increasing room for manoeuvre
