Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur migrationserfarenheter hos moldovier som nu bor i Sverige har påverkat deras identitetsskapande. Genom intervjuer med ett levnadsberättelseperspektiv undersöks hur bilden av Europa innan migrationen påverkat beslutet att flytta, hur bilden av Moldavien har förändrats efter migrationen, samt i vilken mån det har betydelse för deras identitet. Studien visar att idéer om språk och historia får stor betydelse vid stora samhällsomvandlingar och kopplas till den egna identiteten. Informanterna omgavs i Moldavien av migrationsberättelser, vilka skapade en migrationslängtan. Moldavien pratades om som något annat och sämre än ?Europa? och de själva konstruerades som icke-européer.

Abstract The purpose of this essay is to compare the integration policy between Socialdemokraterna, Moderaterna and Sverigedemokraterna with focus on labor-market integration, housing segregation and language knowledge. The international immigration has in recent years increased significantly and this has also enriched the receiving countries and still the numbers of extreme right parties have increased. In Sweden a racist populist party, Sverigedemokraterna, are only a few steps away from entering the parliament. The question in focus is: What differences or similarities are there between the integration politics between Moderaterna, Socialdemokraterna and Sverigedemokraterna with focus on the areas housing, work and language?  By applying the theoretical framework to the data, I have been able to present answers and build up an analysis. The study concludes that there are more similarities than differences in the integration policy between Moderaterna and Socialdemokraterna.

Will the discourse in a country effect the way an event is presented in the media? And will the event be presented in similar ways in different countries? These are the questions my paper aims to answer. By using critical discourse analysis I have analyzed the reporting of the Iraqi War in three big newspapers; one from USA, one from Sweden and one from Great Britain. The results show that the discourse in each country play a big part in how the news get presented in the media, and this is shown in how the news gets reported. The three countries had three different views on the same war.

Det finns ett sysselsättningsgap mellan inrikes- och utrikes födda på arbetsmarknaden vilket är en fråga som har engagerat många forskare. Denna studie undersöker hur immigrationsålder och föräldrarnas ursprung kan påverka utbildningsnivå och sysselsättning. Materialet som används i studien är insamlat mellan 2010-2011 och är ett representativt urval ur den svenska befolkningen. I syfte att förklara dessa samband används immigrationsålder och föräldrarnas ursprung som en proxy för landsspecifikt kapital i form av språkkunskaper och tillgången till sociala nätverk. Resultatet visar att föräldrarnas ursprung har en signifikant inverkan på både utbildningsnivå och sysselsättning.

This essay examines a small selection of Swedish newsreel and documentary short films, primarily travelogues, produced shortly before and after the second world war. The general aim is to expose differences in the representation of ?The Other? and the ?ethnic Swede? by applying a critical discourse analysis. The purpose is to illuminate how the material positions the latter as the norm and then contextualize this with xenophobic currents that had developed up until the middle of the twentieth century. Theoretical and methodological framework is drawn from the field of cultural studies as well as the nonfiction film.

The Sweden democrats are a political party that has had a time of success duringthe last year. However many people believe them to be a racist party, in contrastto how they view themselves and their political message. How is it possible thatthe views of the same party differ to this extent, it seems to be a large ambiguityin their message. Rhetoric is a tool that everybody uses in some way or anotherand can be crucial to how a political party is perceived by people. Can thereforethe use of rhetoric be a factor that has contributed to the different perception of theparty and if so, in which way?With the help of theories such as semiotics, classical rhetoric and antiestablishmentstrategy, different texts, such as motions, and pictures published bythe Sweden democrats can be analyzed to find ways they use rhetoric.In the analysis it was obvious that they used rhetoric, even though therhetorical quality differed between the leading persons in the party and the peoplewho represented the Sweden democrats in the local government.

AbstractAuthor: Josefine KostinTitle: A succesful work of integration? ? a case study of the integration work within the Botkyrka municipalityThe last decades, Sweden has become more ethnic heterogenetic. Generations of immigration have affected the Swedish society in many ways; the language that are spoken at work and in schools, culture and the political agenda etcetera. In 2008, Botkyrka municipality was chosen to be the second best at working with integrating immigrants. On the other hand, Botkyrka has been referred to as a municipality which has failed with the integration of immigrants; for example, unemployments amongst the immigrants and segregation.

The credit rating industry is a complex and fascinating industry. Its history stretches back more than 150 years and has gradually increased in importance. During its history the dynamics of the industry have changed. The extended-principal-agent model was developed by synthesizing different principal-agent-relationships into one model. This model provides a holistic understanding of the credit rating industry and illustrates the interdependence between the different relationships.

I vårt moderna samhälle använder vi datorsystem som är viktiga för olika verksamheter. Det behövs datorsystem med olika arbetsroller. Till exempel erbjuda webb-tjänster för att användare utifrån kan arbeta mot och databas-tjänster för att både lagra och hämta ut information. Om det interna nätverket är stort kan det underlätta att ha en DNS server för att knyta namn till servrar. Men om det finns hot för att störa driften av verksamheten, speciellt företagets nätverk blir säkerhet en mycket viktig fråga.En anställd på ett medelstort företag erbjöd mig att göra en analys av deras IT-säkerhet.

Hur bör en Life@Home-mässa i Nya Haganäs utformas för att attrahera, skapa publicitet och få folk att bosätta sig på orten? Svaret på den frågan undersöks i denna rapport. Bostadsbrist leder till ett behov att expandera och en mässa kan ge orten mer publicitet och intresse som genererar underlag för nybyggnationer och immigration.Metoden utgörs av litteraturstudier kring stadsplanering, intervjuer med ämneskvalificerade personer, studiebesök och undersökningar av relevanta bomässor. En deltagaraktiv stadsplaneringsmetod används och ligger till grund för en 3D-modell som har tagits fram. Detta utförs med hjälp av dator och resultatet presenteras i form av renderingar.Diskussionen kretsar kring hur kvalitéer varierar vid olika utformningar av planen, planens utseende och hur väl den uppfyller målen.

In the West, travels are often regarded as a given. When tourism is studied it sometimes sounds as if all people have the opportunity to go on vacation when they want and wherever they want. That is not the reality for all. There are laws and regulations on visa requirement which makes it harder for nationals of certain countries to travel on holiday abroad. This essay examines the situation for residents of countries outside the EU and the Schengen Agreement.
