Denna undersökning hade som syfte att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar köksmästare på restauranger när de köper fisk i allmänhet och torsk specifikt. Vi ville fånga dessa personers resonemang kring inköp och servering av torsk, samt hur torskdebatten påverkat dem. Med undersökningen ville vi också undersöka hur de ser restaurangers roll som samhällspåverkare.För att besvara våra frågor använde vi oss av öppna intervjuer med fyra köksmästare på fisk- och skaldjursdominerade restauranger. Frågorna behandlade deras resonemang omkring fiskinköp, samarbete med leverantörer, torsk som råvara, torskdebattens påverkan på dem och deras syn på miljömärkning av fisk och restauranger.En del av vad vi fann stämde väl överens med tidigare modeller och undersökningar. Vid fiskinköp var kvalité och pris de faktorer som påverkade köksmästarna mest, men även moral och miljö spelade in.

The purpose of this study is to describe and analyze homelessness in a medium-sized municipality from an organizational perspective. Some of the central questions in this study are: How is the cause of homelessness explained? How do different actors in the community address, prevent and combat homelessness? Who is responsible for the homelessness?This study is based on four semi-structured interviews with organizations that work with homelessness. The analysis is based on problem definition theory.The result of this study shows that homelessness is a problem in this medium-sized municipality even if it is not a big one and that it is often closely combined with substance abuse. The responsibility for the homeless is on the homeless themselves and the social service because that causes is, according to this study, individual based.  .

This essay is a normative analysis concerning the question of whether the government should be allowed to use taxes to finance the state. What kind of ethical problems arise when the government use taxation? If it is possible to justify taxation, despite potential moral issues, then what should the government do with the funds they have collected? What kinds of government functions are morally justified? Is it merely the kinds of functions that are supposed to uphold negative human rights; or should the government provide health care, education and even culture for the citizens? This analysis aims to answer those questions and also formulate a principle about what the government should be occupied with, if anything at all. In order to achieve this I mainly use the terms freedom and justice to analyse ethical problems. The ideas of John Rawls and Robert Nozick are essential in this project.My answer is that taxation is justified as long as the purpose is to maintain the most fundamental human rights and also under other special circumstances such as if an individual cannot find a way to finance basic education or necessary health care.

Syfte med detta arbete är att utifrån ett sociologiskt perspektiv belysa begreppet omsorg och den eventuella problematik som begreppet genom olika tolkningar av dess innebörd kan medföra för dem som arbetar inom vård och omsorgssektorn. Ansatsen i studien är kvalitativ och det empiriska materialet består av intervjuer med personal inom vård- och omsorgssektorn samt fältanteckningar. Vi har utgått från fenomenologin vilket innebär att empirin och analysen utgår från våra intervjupersoners beskrivningar och upplevelser av omsorgen. De teoretiska infallsvinklar som används i analysen utgår från bland annat Goffmans dramaturgiska perspektiv och Johan Asplunds begrepp socialitet.Studien visar att begreppet omsorg är svårt att definiera och saknar klara gränser, då omsorg är kontextbundet och beroende av de många relationer som existerar i omsorgssituationen och påverkar den omsorgs som ges. Detta innebär att förväntningarna på omsorgens karaktär skiljer sig åt, då olika omsorgssituationer uppfattas, tolkas och genomförs olika beroende på individers olikhet och aktuell situation.

The aim of this study was to examine women shelters conditions as an organization and how these conditions affect their work with children who have experienced family violence and live in their shelters. In order to achieve a more profound and comprehensive view of the women shelters and their work with these children we selected to execute a qualitative method with semi-structured interviews with collaborators from nine different shelters in Sweden. We found that the women shelter as a non-governmental organization was bicameral and complex where their work with children distinguishes on several areas. We discovered that the women shelters were an organization, affected and formed by its environment. From our empiricism we could distinguish differences on a municipality level where collaborations with schools and social services occur in a resource guided hierarchy which influences the women shelters work with children.

Studien handlar om att få en inblick om hur värnplikten påverkat vårt samhällsklimat, det kollektiva, den sociala sammanhållningen. Fokus har varit att se på sociala fakta som kan ha påverkat samhället. Det är en kvalitativ studie som baseras på semistrukturerade intervjuer, där informanterna har givits utrymme, att reflektera och berätta hur det var under värnpliktstiden, hur de såg på sina värnpliktsvänner och förhållningssättet gentemot varandra. Hur man kunde mötas som individ och grupp. Värnplikten var under en lång tid en övergripande del i samhället och hade en tydlig folkförankring.

The swedish healthcare is in many situations one of the best in the world. But still, the healthcare system includes elemnts that reduce the efficiency. Partly becouse the swedish healthcare is largely monopolized, the servicecs are not properly prized and the economic responsibility and the liability legislation is limited. The main problem this study evolves around, is how a different liability rule would change the shape of the healthcare organisation. Abouve all, how would the approach to riskmanagement and preventive and riskreducing performance change with a diffrent liability rule.

This report describes the work with creating a CMS (Content Manager System). A CMS is a web tool so you easy can publish materials on your web page. With a CM Scan you can without any knowledge of programming web pages create and maintain a web page. This will result in that you and your organisation save time and money. You can also split the responsibility for the webpage in different roles, but still keep the control. We have chosen to create our CMS in a script language called php4 and with the database server MySQL, we have also used JavaScript a lot.

This is a study of humanity about the meetings we have with one another. I write about this subject out of the perspective of Martin Buber and Gustaf Wingren. As I enter this area and begin the writing a few questions are being developed, such as:? Why do we as humans have the need to meet each other?? ?What happens with us when the meeting is absent?? ?What does it mean to love your fellow man or woman?? ?What helps or destroys our possibilities to meet each other?? Buber talks about Me and You and the aim of the meeting we have with each other. When we meet each other it generates a responsibility against each other.

The study has shown that retailers in the mid-price segment differentiate their brand through developing a strong company identity around the brand. The personality involves store atmosphere, merchandise and advertising. Larger companies have chosen to lay the responsibility on management level, which facilitates on store level. By controlling the strategies on a central level the company can make sure that the stores are steered in the direction that the company wants them to be steered in, and also that they follow the positioning-concept. The company can also devote its efforts to working with its core value, which is service.

The purpose of this study was to find out why the law that regulates downloading copyrighted material does not work and which of the most important main reasons lies behind downloading behaviour. The phenomenon being well investigated earlier has actualized a new demand for normative investigation in connection with the hot debated IPRED-law.Using qualitative method comprising of interviews with three typical file sharers and anchored in Max Webers action typology, rational choice theory and the norm model followed by two assessment models, we found that four important reasons lies behind downloading behaviour: 1) economical reasons was the most central and frequent determinant followed by 2) accessibility and comfort, and 3) social acceptance and moral and also 4) habits. Although the content of the law was correctly provided by the interviewees, it was clear that they did not perceive the impact of the law as meaningful or threatening.The results, being compatible with previous research, are discussed in terms of the named theories and assessment models. We suggest further research to take into account peoples norms as the new IPRED-law soon will be functional as well as studies from a perspective of the legal rights of the individual..

Growing up as a child, we had a Dog. To us, it was like a means to an end. That is, hunting other animals for food and for protection, with no special care and treatment given to this animal. Butas days passed by I began to witness a wind of change against such actions. I was made to understand that we were committing two crimes-: using the Dog as a means to an end (for hunting and for eating animals).

This paper is a research review in the realm of censorship systems andfiltering systems. It applies ethical considerations to the creation of censorshipsystems bringing forward discussion on the ethics of technology with thepurpose of limiting access to information.There is active research being done in the area of automatic content filteringand censorship systems. These are systems that can filter out undesiredmaterial, typically from the Internet, automatically. Used in some nations,many schools and even mandated in some libraries there are many ethicalquestions raised concerning censorship and access to information.Part of the review concerns the level of accuracy of these systems presentedby researchers in the field and the different approaches used. Reviewedarticles centre around automatic content classification and filtering ofpotentially harmful materials with regards to minors while some relate tocensorship technology in a wider sense.Results show a general lack of discussion concerning the ethics of thetechnology in the research reviewed.

Denna studie behandlar mellanchefer inom vården i den offentliga sektorns arbetssituation. Mellanchefer inom vården innehar ofta en roll som sjuksköterska och en roll som avdelningschef. Den dubbla rollen kan vara problematisk då man ska tillgodose den etik och moral som professionen innebär samtidigt som resultat ska levereras till verksamheten. Syftet med studien var att söka ökad förståelse för om det finns en konflikt mellan profession och verksamhetskrav samt hur denna konflikt uppstår. Intentionen var också att undersöka om det kan leder till brott mot Det psykologiska kontraktet.Resultatet visade att professionen som sjuksköterska kommer i konflikt med verksamhetskraven och att detta kan leda till brott mot Det psykologiska kontraktet.

 Sammanfattning Datum: 2009-05-29 Nivå: Magisteruppsats i ekonomistyrning, 15 högskolepoängFörfattare:Magdalena Stål, Födelseår: 1982, Bostadsort: Västerås                                Marina Vokbus, Födelseår: 1982, Bostadsort: VästeråsHandledare: Leif CarlssonTitel: Uppförandekoder - En studie i hur tre företag arbetar med etiska rikt­linjerSyfte:  Syftet med uppsatsen är att studera varför de undersökta företagen enligt respondenterna upprättar en uppförande­kod och vilka etiska principer koden baseras på. Vidare är syftet att studera vilka områden uppförande-koden omfattar, vad företagen fokuserar mest på samt vad de gör för att efter­leva sin uppsatta uppförandekod.Metod: Undersökningen bygger på en kvalitativ forskningsmetod där primär­data studerades i form av insamlat intervjumaterial. Tre företag inter­vjuades angående deras arbete kring etiska riktlinjer. De företag som undersöktes var Atlas Copco, The Body Shop och Samhall.Slutsatser: Anledningen till att de undersökta företagen upprättar en uppförande­kod skiljer sig åt. Atlas Copco ser det som en möjlighet till affärer och långsiktig lönsamhet, för The Body Shop ingår det i den ursprung­liga affärsidén att utföra goda gärningar och Samhall har som ett statligt ägt företag krav på sig att leva upp till uppsatta mål.
