The aim of this thesis is to describe and analyse the ideology behind Sida's cultural aid by using postcolonial theory. We want to analyse the discourse on cultural aid that is found mainly in Sida's publications. The interpretation of the sources is made with a hermeneutic base and by using postcolonial theory in combination with Paul Ricoeur's theories on the function of ideology: 1. ideology as distortion, 2. ideology as legitimation, and 3.

This study sought to explore the juvenile crime prevention in Sweden which for the purpose of this report is seen as efforts towards preventing youth criminality and all forms of anti social behaviour by young people.In the study, interviews with six social workers working directly or indirectly with young offenders were conducted. The interview results were analyzed and subjected to transnational comparison with the practice in Kenya. The report explores existing literature on situational crime prevention, restorative justice, the link between drugs and crime, attachment to parents, peers and involvement in convectional activities, gender differences in criminality, partnerships in crime prevention and the juvenile justice system. It uses control, strain, feminist and social disorganization theories to explain the causes of delinquency, analyzes the perceptions of social workers and discusses what works in juvenile crime prevention. The report identifies the causes of delinquency in Kenya and in Sweden as well as the prevention programs that social workers perceive as effective in addressing youth crime.

In my study, I aim to examine how the printed Swedish media depicts Jews and Judaism.How the agenda is for the depiction of Jews and Judaism and how it can be related todidactic challenges within the school subject religion. The study is based on 194 articlesfrom the Swedish newspapers, Dagens Nyheter and Svenska Dagbladet, in July and August 2014. I use a qualitative and a quantitative text analysis where I put articles in different categories. The study?s theoretical framework is The Agenda-Setting Theory and my study leans against Bachner (2006), von Brömssen (2012) and Revell's (2010) thoughts on the media having great influence over our image of religion and religious groups.My study shows, among other things, that Jews and Judaism are mainly mentioned in the media in relation to the conflict in Israel and Palestine, World War II or anti-Semitism.

Under andra världskriget vidtogs i Sverige ett antal åtgärder som gick på tvärs mot den traditionella svenska pressfriheten. Ett inslag i denna politik var inrättandet av Statens Informationsstyrelse, SIS, med uppgift att bland annat leda och övervaka den svenska pressen. Informationsstyrelsen har i efterhand blivit mest känd för de så kallade ?grå lapparna?, förtroliga meddelanden till tidningarnas redaktörer om vad som inte fick publiceras.Under kriget utkom på Gotland tre dagstidningar. Gotlänningen som ägdes av bondeförbundsintressen, konservativa Gotlands Allehanda vars huvudägare C E Ekman även var tysk konsul och tidningen har betraktats som mycket pronazistisk samt socialdemokratiska Gotlands Folkblad som framställts som ytterst anti-nazistisk.Utifrån SIS arkiv beskrivs SIS styrning av tidningarna genom de grå lapparna och påpekanden av överträdelser.

Cysteinproteaset cathepsin B har en trolig roll i vävnadsnedbrytningen vid kronisk parodontit då det visats kunna bryta ner extracellulära komponenter. Cystatin C är en fysiologisk inhibitor av cathepsin B och båda har kopplats till parodontal sjukdom. Syftet med studien var att undersöka närvaro av samt lokalisera cathepsin B och cystatin C i gingivala biopsier från patienter med kronisk parodontit. Närvaro och lokalisation av cathepsin Bs och cystatin Cs demonstrerades genom immunohistokemisk metod av kryostatsnittad vävnad. Polyklonal kanin anti-human primär antikropp för både enzym och inhibitor användes.

I have done a study to see what perceptions held by two principals and four teachers, if adult behavior and attitudes towards each other will affect the climate between the students and put it in relation to the fundamental values of work and policy documents. I have also examined how they describe their work environment in their daily work and how they work to combat bullying.I have used qualitative interviews as a method to get answers to my questions. The interviews took place at two different schools, in which I interviewed a headmaster and two teachers at both schools. What emerged during the interviews were compiled and processed with aid based on previous research and theories which focus is in a social constructionist approach.The results as it shows in my study highlights a consensus among the interviewees that the personnel group working atmosphere affects the climate between the students and that there is a good understanding of the impact they have. The study also shows that the experience of their work climate affects by how the communication between management and staff looks likes and how many resources there are in the form of personnel.

I takt med att e-handel ökar samt direktbetalning i form av kreditkortsbetalning, ökar även antalet bedrägerier. Fler och fler webbutiker använder sig utav externa betalningslösningar för att stärka förtroendet hos konsumenter som genomför en direktbetalning.Nätfiske och andra bedragare som utnyttjar konsumenters identiteter online har ökat. Anti-Phishing Work Group som är en branschförening och som inriktar sig på att eliminera identitetsstöld och onlinebedrägerier, har uppmärksammat att antalet nätfiskebedrägerier har ökat med ungefär 4000 % sedan november 2003. (verisign.se) Vi vill med denna studie ta reda på om konsumenter påverkas av osäkerheten kring betalning vid shopping via Internet och i så fall på vilket sätt.För att få fram det resultat som vi eftersträvar använder vi oss av en enkät samt användartester där vi ställer en fingerad sida mot den officiella sidan för företag i fråga. Användaren fick därefter välja ut den sida som de anser vara den officiella sidan.

This thesis is concerned with investigating the Roma, a group that is left out in most of the territory bound theories. The theoretical purposes are to develop theories that increase the understanding for the Roma as a diasporic nation without state and the advocacy networks they are organised in. The main empirical purpose has been to study two organisations as cases and how they position themselves against the European Union concerning identity politics. The two organisations are European Roma Rights Centre (ERRC) and Dzeno. They are a part of the same network that works on different levels with the rights of Roma.

ABSTRACT The purpose of this essay has been to analyse an incident that received huge attention in the media that took place on February 24 2011 involving the famous fashion designer John Galliano. Galliano who at the time served as a creative director at French luxury fashion house Dior hurled anti-Semitic remarks during an altercation to a couple at Paris café La Perle. We intended to do a study of the material in two parts. The primary focus of our thesis was to analyse six different newspaper articles that involved the incident. We chose to analyse three articles from Great Britain and three from the United States to get a versatile image of the incident.

Several studies have shown that the Swedish labour market for different reasons is characterized by ethnical discrimination and that people who have another cultural background than Swedish are being excluded. Most studies done within this area have been focused on why it is harder for immigrants to enter the labour market and identifying the contributing mechanisms for this phenomenon. Instead the aim of this study was to see how the immigrants view their own cultural identity and background and how they perceive that their cultural competences are being valued when they apply for a job. To examine this, the following problematic was used: How does a person who has been brought up with both the Swedish culture and another culture look at using this as a cultural competence when they apply for a job. Two different theories were then applied to analyze the problematic, Erving Goffman´s theory about Stigma and Norbert Elias theory about the Established and the Outsiders.

Henriksson, I & Jönsson, M. Den svenska glasburken. En diskursanalys av Statens Offentliga Utredningar/ The Swedish glass jar. A discourse analysis of official government reports. Examensarbete i Socialt arbete 30 poäng.

Denna studie har genomförts med hjälp av kvalitativa intervjuer med syftet att utföra en diskursanalys på hur deltagare och anställda talar om projektet Korta vägen i Uppsala.Korta vägen är ett arbetsmarknadspolitiskt projekt som syftar till att få ut utländska akademiker i arbetslivet.Våra informanter bestod av anställda inom projektet samt deltagare som nyligen fullgjort sin utbildning i Korta vägen.Frågeställningarna har varit hur deltagare och anställda talar om projektet och vilka diskurser som används och reproduceras via talet.I vårt resultat redogör vi för åtta olika diskurser som vi har kunnat urskilja utifrån vårt empiriska material. Diskurserna berör kultur, språk, nätverk, pedagogik, samhällsekonomi, praktik samt terapeutiska relationer. Resultatet visar även hur majoriteten av diskurserna går att koppla till svenskhet samt vilken betydelse svenskhet har för människors möjligheter på den svenska arbetsmarknaden.Slutligen problematiserar vi hur en exkludering på den svenska arbetsmarknaden finns inbäddad i vår samhällsstruktur, och hur vi omedvetet upprätthåller och reproducerar denna. Problematiseringen har gjorts med diskursanalytiska teorier av Foucault, Derrida och Berger och Luckmann..

Lower urinary tract diseases are a common problem in cats all over the world. The symptoms are for example dysuria, pollakuria, stranguria, periuria and hematuria. In approximately two thirds of these cats the underlying cause is not known and the disease is therefore called feline idiopathic cystitis (FIC). We need to know more about the disease to get a consistently effective treatment and prevention. A retrospective study was performed in 50 cats with symptoms of FIC and where other causes of inflammation were ruled out. Data like breed, age, sex, body weight, feeding, therapy and therapeutic results were collected, also if it was an indoor or outdoor cat, duration of the symptoms, if there was any stress and if the cat was living with another cat.

Among young adults and especially women, psychological issues are common phenomena in the society such as depression, anxiety and stress. Research has shown that physical activity can be a complement for anti-depressant medication. The aim of this review is to examine previous research to find out how physical activity can provide positive effects on overall mood state in particular young women's psychological health. The results of this review is that there are support in the literature of young women that physical activity may enhance mood in studies of depression and anxiety symptoms and small support for the effects on reducing stress. Physical activity with both high intensity and low intensity has shown to have positive effects on depression and anxiety, but the physical activity has to be regular for long-term effects.
