Vi lever i ett samh?lle d?r teknologiska uppfinningar hela tiden h?jer hastigheten, inte bara i arbetet utan ocks? i vardagen. Denna studie syftar d?rf?r till att unders?ka om samtidens norm om produktivitet genomsyrar alla ?ldrar och livsstadier genom att fokusera p? pension?rer. F?r att bidra till f?rst?else av normer kring produktivitet hos ?ldre ?mnar studien f?rst? pension?rernas subjektiva upplevelser av tid och hur den ?nskas spenderas i relation till ?lderdomen. Genom ett utforskande av dikotomin produktivitet/reproduktivitet och hur den f?rh?ller sig till rekreation samt agentskap och ett temporalt perspektiv avser studien att unders?ka ?lderdomens kapitel och pensionen med nya glas?gon.

Syfte: Med utg?ngspunkt i svensk nyhetsdebatt om barn och avancerad hudv?rd, syftar f?religgande uppsats till att synligg?ra och analysera hur barn (0?18 ?r) konstrueras diskursivt samt att unders?ka vem som tilldelas talutrymme i dessa diskussioner. Teori: Utifr?n ett diskursteoretiskt ramverk inspirerat av Foucault, bygger analysen p? utg?ngspunkten om spr?k som centralt och b?rare av diskursiva f?rest?llningar om hur n?got eller n?gon antas eller b?r vara. Det kombineras med barndomssociologiska teorier om barnsyn och att den r?dande synen p? barn ?r kontextuellt, kulturellt och historiskt betingad. Metod: Det empiriska materialet, best?ende av 19 nyhetsartiklar fr?n de svenska tidningarna Dagens Nyheter, Aftonbladet, Expressen, Svenska Dagbladet, G?teborgs-Posten, Svenska Dagbladet Junior och Kamratposten, har analyserats genom en kritisk inneh?llsanalys med en diskursanalytisk ansats inspirerad av Foucault f?r att synligg?ra diskursiva konstruktioner, diskurser samt de positioner och handlande som barn tillskrivs. Resultat: Av resultatet framg?r att barn konstrueras p? tre olika s?tt och att de olika konstruktionerna (o)m?jligg?r olika typer av handlande. Barn konstrueras genom spr?kliga mark?rer i artiklarna som konsumenter, som s?rbara och som kompetenta.

In the 90's the establishment of external trade centers had a strong growth in Sweden, primarily in large and medium cities. Gradually took smaller towns by this development. In larger cities with larger and growing customer base than in small towns were not affected by the trade centers heavily, but in the smaller towns where the customer base was smaller, there was a risk that it created a negative competitive relationship between external trade center and trade in the citycenter. In some cases, competition is a positive development for both the citycenter and external trade areas, but in some cases there was a risk that the center became impoverished. In such situation there are theories that the different variety of different types of goods should be at the center and in external trade center could lead to a balanced trade relationship.

The purpose of this study has been to create a better understading of how face?to?face activities in course´s impacts on the experience of interaction within a course.More specifically, the study puts the student'?s perception of how mandatory face?to?face activities affect and are affected by the interaction in focus. This is done by the following research questions. What affects the student'?s perception of face?to?face activities? Which interaction dimension affects the factors that influence students perception of the activities? Which interaction dimension is influenced by the student'?s perception of the activities?The theoretical base is Wagner'?s (1994) three types of interaction and Andersson´s(2003) theory of interaction dimensions.

In light of the European Union`s 2012 theme year: Active aging and solidarity between generations I wished to gain an understanding of weather elderly immigrant are provided with equal possibilities and access to local community information as the majority population and their participation in activities arranged for senior citizens in the municipality where they live. I have done this by meeting with those who work in this capacity. I also chose to meet with representatives for immigrant organizations in the local community to enquire of their work with senior citizens within their own ethnic group. This is a qualitative study on a phenomenological ground based on nine interviews and four observations. I have had two theories to help me analyze my empirical material.

Svenskar 65 år eller äldre beräknas öka från dagens 1,6 miljoner till 2,3 miljoner år 2030. Äldre kan ansöka om bistånd vilket kan bestå av matleveranser eller helpension i särskilt boende. Livsmedelssäkerheten styrs av EG-lagstiftning och svensk lag gäller även matleveranser och mat i särskilt boende. Äldre i särskilt boende utgör en högriskgrupp för livsmedelsburen smitta och i dagsläget saknas en information om hur utbrott av livsmedelsburen smitta drabbat äldreboenden. Mot bakgrund av avsaknad av information har detta arbete utförts. En litteratursökning gjordes via ISI Web of Knowledge, sökorden elderly* and food poison* och gastroenteritis and elderly and food användes.

Denna uppsats handlar om medelålders personers inställningar till robotar i vården. Utmaningen är att fylla gapet som skapas mellan ökandet av äldre och minskandet av vårdgivare. Robotar i hemmet ska fungera som ett hjälpmedel för äldre personer där de ska kunna bo själva längre och även känna självständighet. Uppsatsen undersöker hur personer mellan 40 och 60 år ser på robotar i hemmet och om de hade kunnat tänka sig ha en sådan hemma när de blir äldre. En jämförelse görs mellan 20-40 åringar från en tidigare studie som genomfördes för ca 15 år sedan och dagens 40-60 åringar för att ge svar på frågan: Har synen på robotar och inställningen till dessa förändrats över tid sedan den sista undersökningen år 1998? Vilka mönster finns det ? likheter och skillnader?.
