Syftet med föreliggande studie var att beskriva vad personer med diabetes anser inverka på deras möjlighet och vilja att följa egenvårdsråd (patientperspektivet) och att beskriva omvård-nad som stöder följsamhet (sjukvårdsperspektivet). Studien har genomförts som en litteratur-studie. Det visade sig att alla krav för att hålla sjukdomen under kontroll innebär livsstilsför-ändringar, som kan vara så utmanande för patienten, att han kanske inte kan eller vill vidta dessa. Bristande kunskap om sjukdomen och om dess egenvårdskrav kan göra honom dåligt emotionellt anpassad till denna, det vill säga han har inte accepterat att han har sjukdomen och han vill inte låta dess egenvårdskrav inkräkta på det sociala livet. Detta ger honom för-sämrade möjligheter att hantera sjukdomen på ett bra sätt.

The conflict in Vaxholm was an important event since it influenced the view upon the Swedish labour market. The entire Swedish model was questioned and questions about what the concept of solidarity stands for and for whom it is meant arose.The Swedish union, Byggnads, was harshly criticised for having acted in a discriminating fashion towards den Latvian workers and the Latvian company Laval un Partneri. The debate in the media was intense.My intention with this essay was to scrutinise the arguments in one of the most prestigious newspapers in Sweden, Dagens Nyheter, and to put the argumentation into a perspective of solidarity. I wanted to investigate how the different parties argued about solidarity. One of the conclusions I drew was that Byggnads needs to question their definition of solidarity and how they wish to express that in a new world more influenced by globalisation and immigrated labours..

Assistanshund är ett samlingsnamn för hundar som på olika sätt hjälper och förenklar tillvaron för människor med olika typer av funktionshinder. Här ingår hundar som ledarhundar, rehabhundar, terapihundar, servicehundar, diabeteshundar, epilepsihundar och signalhundar. Syftet med denna uppsats är att visa hur hunden kan fungera som hjälpmedel för personer med funktionshinder och vilken betydelse den har för sin förare. Jag utgår ifrån ett empowermentperspektiv och undersöker huruvida hunden kan vara med och bidra till en personlig empowermentprocess hos föraren. Jag använder begreppet empowerment för att förstå de processer människan går igenom som leder från beroende till oberoende och om hunden på något sätt kan vara en del i detta.
