The aim of the study is to make a comparison between the nursery/preschool recommendations (by the state) made in 1972 and the one used today. Here I?ve focused on the posts of looking after children vis-à-vis the educational responsibility. Also the type of education recommended in 1972 and what type of education recommended today. My questions concerns what the preschool recommendations from 1972 are and how they are viewed and applied today in the 2000nds.Since my questions has to do with ideologies regarding children, family and society I choose to do a specific form of text and content analysis called Idea and ideology analysis.In my theoretical chapter I choose two aspects central for my field of examination.

Abstract Background: Type 1 diabetes is a chronic disease that worldwide greatly increases among children and adolescents. Major demands are required from the individual who has this disease, which also requires significant knowledge from the nurses so they can be able to develop and create individual conditions for children and adolescents.

Under de senare åren har fenomenet CSR blivit oerhört aktuellt bland både företag, intressenter och samhället i övrigt. Det har framställts att det numera berör hur utvecklingen av CSR påverkar företags beslutsfattande. Här finns två sidor som talar emot varandra, dels en där forskarna menar på att CSR har en påverkan på beslutsfattande medan den andra sidan anser att CSR inte påverkar beslutsfattandet i någon vidare utsträckning.Syftet med denna studie är att utforska kring hur CSR påverkar företags beslutsfattande. Koncernen som kommer att beaktas i studien är ICA-Gruppen. Med hjälp av en abduktiv metod jämför vi en tidigare teori och vårt empiriska insamlade material för att finna mönster och förståelse av verkligheten. Genom studiens kvalitativa metod har fem semistrukturerade intervjuer genomförts hos olika ICA-handlare då vi eftersträvar en djupare förståelse av hur CSR integreras i beslut.

Inledning: Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) är ett begrepp som har fått allt större betydelse i dagens företagsklimat. CSR handlar om en strävan om att ta sitt företagande ett steg längre än att endast fokusera på vinstmaximering och på så sätt ta ansvar för sin omgivning. Mycket tyder på att CSR hittills i mångt och mycket varit tillskrivet de stora företagen. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om CSR är något som även har nått de små företagen i Sverige och på vilket sätt de i så fall arbetar med dessa frågor. Den frågeställning som skall undersökas är formulerad som följer; Hur och i vilken utsträckning arbetar små företag i Sverige med CSR?Metod: Med utgångspunkt i en kombinerad kvantitativ och kvalitativ metodansats har denna studie genomförts genom dels en förstudie i form av intervjuer samt en enkätundersökning.

In April 2010 Vägverket (the Swedish National Road Agency) andBanverket (the Swedish National Railway Agency) will merge intoTrafikverket (the Swedish National Traffic Agency). Trafikverket willassume unified responsibility for the risk management that atpresent is responsibility of Vägverket and Banverket separately. Atpresent, as it will be shown in this thesis, Vägverket and Banverketshare the same theoretical background for risk management but usedifferent implementations often within the same agency. The use ofdifferent implementations results in a reduced transparency of therisk management both within and outside the agencies: this willbecome even more problematic when they will be fused intoTrafikverket.The aim of this thesis is to review the current risk managementmethodologies used at Vägverket and Banverket and to suggest aunified tool for the risk management at Trafikverket. This will bedone by focusing in particular on construction projects, one fromVägverket (Partihallsförbindelsen) and one from Banverket(Nynäsbanan).

CSR, Corporate Social Responsibility, är ett aktuellt fenomen för företag och organisationer världen över. CSR sträcker sig ända tillbaka till 1600-talet i Sverige men gick då under det enkla namnet samhällsansvar. Begreppet innebär att företag ska ta sitt samhällsansvar genom CSR:s fyra perspektiv; ekonomi, socialt, miljö och etik. Att driva företag handlar om att tjäna pengar men det är också viktigt att intressera sig för annat än den ekonomiska vinningen för att skapa mervärden. CSR kan vara styrt av lagstiftningen, exempelvis gällande vissa arbetsvillkor men den största delen av tillväxten av CSR återfinns utanför lagstiftningen.Syftet med undersökningen är att få djupare kunskap om vilka motiv som driver storföretag att arbeta med CSR och detta besvaras genom tre frågor.

According to the national curriculum in Swedish schools, teachers have the responsibility to prevent and discourage psychological and physical harassment (Lgr 2011). This study focuses on 7 teachers with their viewpoint and understanding of bullying as a human based social problem. The teachers, as the informants, give their personal explanation on how they act, prevent and discourage bullying in their school. The research places the emphasis, based on, interviews from which teachers are telling, relating and explaining on how they say that they are preventing and discouraging bullying.The conclusion from this study is that the interviewed teachers do, from their viewpoint, understand bullying as psychological and physical harassment problem which is based on a question of interpretation in regards to the victim. The informants do place different emphasis on what causes the problem, if it is a question of the individual or of it is a problem based on the socialization between individuals.

The aim of this thesis is to create an understanding of the incentives for forest companies to invest in reducing carbon dioxide emissions from deforestation and forest degradation, which is termed REDD. The Brazilian Amazonas was chosen as the base for the investment case. Brazil has the largest area of rainforest in the world, and also the biggest problem with deforestation. The Amazon region of Brazil comprises rainforest which is largely intact and unexploited. Accordingly, there is significant potential scope for prospective investments in a REDD-project, and so have a noteworthy impact in preventing deforestation.The research approach used the United Nation?s Clean Development Mechanism concept was used as a framework for ascertaining the investment costs in potential REDD-projects.
