Inom den teoretiska ramen för den här uppsatsen finns ett ideal, en idé om att journalistiken spelar en viktig roll till och med avgörande roll, i en fungerande demokrati. Idealet om en journalistik som tar sitt ansvar och informerar medborgarna om hur makten sköter sitt uppdrag, genom att granska makten, är något som utgör en av de viktigaste riktlinjerna inom det journalistiska uppdraget. Teorierna som används har sin grund i de normativa förväntningarna som finns på journalistiken i en fungerande demokrati och journalistikens ansvar som granskare av makten på medborgarnas uppdrag. Den övergripande utgångspunkten för den här uppsatsen är att media/journalistiken borde granska Sveriges internationella bistånd till andra länder..

The object of this essay has been to investigate the interlibrary loan service at the universitylibraries of Borås and Kalmar. For this purpose a quantitative and a qualitative methodhave been used.The main body of information consists of statistic data concerning the incoming interlendingorders for a three-month-period. In order to examine the circumstances under which theinterlending activity exists several interviews were made.The study showed that there are several important factors which together make up the complexitythat governs the interlending activity. What type of demand there is depends on theeducational level, whether the different study programmes have a broad or limited subjectorientation or not, and if the demand is of a constant or an inconstant nature. Well-establishedroutines at the information-desk and co-operation with the departments of the different studyprogrammes are important factors in keeping the knowledge of what books and serials areneeded up to date..

Vårt syfte med uppsatsen är att undersöka i vilken mån behandlingshem, som utger sig för att arbeta miljöterapeutiskt, utformar samt använder sig av den fysiska miljön i enlighet med miljöterapeutiska ideal. Vi vill undersöka vilken vikt behandlingspersonal och institutionsledning lägger vid den fysiska miljön på behandlingshem för ungdomar. Frågeställningarna lyder: ? Utifrån vilka medvetna strategier arbetar man med den fysiska miljön på behandlingshem med miljöterapeutisk inriktning? Hur arbetar man för att utforma samt utveckla den fysiska miljön? På vilket sätt resonerar behandlingspersonal samt institutionsledning angående hur den fysiska miljön ser ut i dagsläget? I vilken utsträckning är behandlingspersonal involverad i omsorgen av den fysiska miljön på behandlingshemmen?? Vilken konkret betydelse anser personal på miljöterapeutiska behandlingshem att den fysiska miljön har för ungdomarnas behandlingsprocess? ? På vilket sätt får ungdomarna medverka i utformningen av den fysiska miljön på behandlingshemmen? Hur upplever ungdomarna den fysiska miljön på avdelningen?Undersökningen är en kvalitativ fallstudie som bygger på en gruppintervju med sex ungdomar samt sex individuella semistrukturerade intervjuer med institutionschefer samt behandlingsassistenter från tre olika behandlingshem med miljöterapeutisk inriktning för LVU-placerade ungdomar. I analysen jämförs institutionernas arbete med och utformning av den fysiska miljön med den idealtypiska miljöterapin angående detta ämne.

In 1513 the Florentine humanists Niccolò Machiavelli composed one of the most famous, but also ambiguously interpret, work in the history of politics, Il Principe. Machiavelli´s book The Prince revealed the true nature of politics in Italy in the beginning of the sixteenth century and gives very straightforward advice on how to act to become a successful and powerful political being. Machiavelli´s creation and insights in the reality of politics have be much discredited and condemned in its lack of moral consideration and violent nature. Still it has been read under the centuries with a fascination and eager to understand the structure of power and how to master it. My purpose with this study is to apply this Machiavellian idea of the capable prince on to the earlier research of the Swedish duke Karl, later on King Karl IX.

I have used a qualitative research in the form of interviews to obtain educators perspectives on their working.

The thesis is based on a case study of a Swedish discussion forum where survivalism and prepping is the main focus. The awareness of an abrupt and immanent breakdown together with a full and thorough preparation for any conceivable threat posed by that breakdown is what legitimizes survivalism and prepping. This preparation, or risk-proofing is 1) grounded in an isolation of the body and its predispositions from perceived risks, and 2) actualized through artefacts, theoretical and practical knowledge and awareness. Stories of the embodied survivalist are also stories of masculine and heterosexual subjects and ?the others?.

Jag vill i den här uppsatsen ge mig in i en värld där ära och heder ständigt står på spel. En värld där ett enda illa valt ord kan orsaka en släktfejd och få förödande konsekvenser vad det gäller att skörda människoliv. Världen är ganska fåordig och enkel, känslorna är raka och direkta. Det finns ungefär 50 stycken bevarade isländska sagor, och det är två av dessa jag vill studera närmare. I de isländska sagorna är det ofta männen som är centrala figurer, kring dem kretsar de flesta äventyr och de är ofta huvudpersoner i uppgörelser och vid tingsplatser.

Thermography is the assesment of the surface temperature of the horses body and it falls into the categori of physiological imaging. Thermography allows us to portray inflammation and changes in sympathetic tone in a graphical manner. The purpose of this study was to review thermography in equine medicine and to evaluate thermography as an aid in the diagnosis of lamness in horses. Thermography has been helpful to identyfy sprains, stress fractures, shin splints and soft tissue, tendon, ligamentous and nerv injuries and to monitor healing processes during rehabilitation. Routine thermography may reveal inflammatory responses prior to clinical signs. In present study thermograpy gave especially valuabel information in two cases. In one horse reduced blood flow in a. saphena due to a thrombosis were visualised and in the other horse bilateral thoracolumbal radiculopati was diagnosed.

The project concerns a predevelopment work for Scania AB, a leading manufacturer of heavytrucks, and was performed as a master thesis work for the program Design and ProductDevelopment at KTH. The purpose of this work was to examine how the work situation of truckdrivers, especially long-haulage drivers, can be improved with respect to prolonged sedentaryoccupation. Mental fatigue and under-stimulation due to low cognitive load during long drivescan be major risk factors for traffic accidents. Physical strain injuries to both the skeleton andmuscles are common for this working group and minimal opportunity for daily exercise alsoincreases the risk of developing blood clots in the legs, which can have serious consequences forthe driver's health.An extensive background study, both theoretical and exploratory, was performed to identify thedrivers' concerns and comfort needs. Various treatments such as massage and active sitting wereinvestigated and existing products within the area studied.

The communist party Khmer Rouge took over the power in Cambodia in 1975, and ruled the country until the beginning of 1979. During these years they attempted to create a completely new society, a true Khmer nation, which involved massive economic and social reorganisation and elimination of people which did not fit in the new ideal.Three decades has passed since the genocide, and the senior leaders of the Khmer Rouge will now be tried in the Khmer Rouge tribunal, which consists of both Cambodian and international judges and prosecutors. The integrity of those tribunal representatives will be crucial for the integrity of the tribunal as a whole and thus also for the outcome of the processes. It is hard to determine whether the purposes for demand of accountability will be satisfied, it is though clear that there are many obstacles in the way for an unproblematic and fair procedure..
