The purpose of this study is to explore and understand the social and structural dynamics of an organization working with questions regarding development. The organization in question is Vi-agroforestry, a Swedish based NGO that works around the lake Victoria basin and the focus will be on their office in Rwanda. I have used a qualitative approach and conducted participatory observation as well as semi-structured interviews to gather data. I have emanated from the individuals in the organization by using a theory of microsociological organisationperspecive to understand how the employees create and is created by the existing social structures. (Blomberg, 2003) Even though the office in Rwanda only is a relatively small part of Vi-agroforestry?s operations it is still highly individual and independent from the rest of the organization.

The aim of this study was to understand how social workers deal with honour-related violence, with special focus on the processing from sheltered housing. Our qualitative interviews with social workers that work with this kind of problems show that there are both obstacles and opportunities in the processing from sheltered housing. On the negative side are the loneliness, the shame and the guilt that the girls may experience when they need to leave their families. The social services can both be an obstacles and an opportunity. When the girls need to create a new life in a new city they have a lot of opportunities and in the same time it is hard to get to know new friends when you don´t know the city or have much money.

E.ON Elnät has in their project Operational Performance developed a priority tool forconstruction and operation. The tool will help the users to increase the capability to prioritybetween new development projects and removal of faults. The tool can be seen as a measuringfor different bay?s reliability, size and the community usefulness. The result of the priority isdirectly connected to which calibration that is chosen in the tool.The priority tool is still under development and there is therefore an uncertainty about howsensitive the tool is for changes in the calibration.

This essay is about possible causes to the female dominance in public libraries. We have focusedon the 20th century in Sweden and the development of public libraries during this time. Forthis purpose we have done a survey of three different cities, Uppsala, Jönköping and Skara,during three different years, 1938, 1958 and 1978. We have studied salaries, gender and titlesfor the employed at the head library in each city and then made comparisons between them.In conjunction, we have also studied how women were looked upon by the rest of society,regarding their education and work opportunities.To achieve a comprehension of the society's view of women we have, in the essay, put threedifferent theories of the so called "female nature" in center. The genderization in the labourmarket has also been set to discussion.A comparison between librarians, teachers at different levels, and postoffice employees, hasalso been made regarding their salaries during the years (1938, 1958 and 1978)..

Before 1944 homosexuality was an act of crime and you could be sentenced to prison for up to 2 years. This law only included men, women where not thought having homosexual activities. Although homosexuality was not a criminal act after 1944 it was still on the list over Swedish diseases, a list maid by the Swedish board of social affairs.The years between 1978 and 1984 a study of the homosexual life in society was maid. The most important thing that this study showed was that homosexuality means that you love someone of your own sex, and that you aren?t different from the rest of the society, except that you choose to love someone of the same sex.The work for equality between these two groups started after 1979 when the Swedish board of social affairs took homosexuality of their list over Swedish diseases.

Syfte: Syftet med detta arbete ?r att j?mf?ra hur rehabilitering och behandling vid l?ndryggsskador framst?lls av tre olika professioner: l?kare, fysioterapeut och tr?nare, samt att diskutera vilka effekter och implikationer dessa representationer/framst?llningar producerar. Metod: Studien ?r byggd p? en diskursanalytisk ansats med st?d i Michel Foucaults diskursteori och Carol Bacchis modell ?What?s the problem represented to be??. Urvalet utf?rdes strategiskt och inkluderade totalt fyra respondenter: En l?kare, tv? fysioterapeuter varav en med idrottsmedicinsk inriktning och en tr?nare. Intervjuerna var semistrukturerade och analyserades med fyra centrala fr?gor i Bacchis modell. Resultat: Resultaten visade att professionerna har olika perspektiv sm?rta, skada och behandling. L?karen hade st?rre fokus p? sm?rtlindring och avlastning genom sjukskrivning medan fysioterapeuterna s?g aktiv rehab, helhetssyn och individanpassning som centralt. Tr?naren ans?g att det viktigt att f?rst? sin roll och h?nvisa till professionell behandling. Samarbetet mellan professionerna framh?vdes som viktigt men ans?gs vara organisatoriskt problematiskt. Slutsats: Olika utbildningar och erfarenheter p?verkar hur professioner och individer representerar l?ndryggsskador, vilket pr?glar b?de behandlingsmetoder och samarbetsm?jligheter.

The relationship between China and Japan has historically been problematic and, in some ways still is. One of the issues where both of the states cannot agree on is the island dispute. While both states are claiming sovereignty over the island and there do not seem to be an ending to it in the near future. If the island dispute continues to escalate it could have a negative impact in the Asian region and eventually rest of the world as well. However due to the complexity of the dispute a deeper knowledge is needed and a mutual understanding is needed.
