?I?m wondering if another woman is really the answer I need? : En tematisk studie av mannen, kvinnan och konsumtionskulturen i Chuck Palahniuks Fight Club
The aim of this paper is to answer three questions about Chuck Palahniuks novel Fight Club. The three questions were chosen because they were widely debated after the release of David Fincher screenplay based on the same book. The questions are: Is the critique on consumerculture offered in Fight Club valid? What does Fight Club say about the relation between man and woman? Can the work be considered fascist? The critique against consumer culture is found valid and not a disguised complaint about the feminization of society. The main female character Marla is vital for Jack as a blueprint for Tyler.
Kvinnlig könsstympning - medborgarens autonomi kontra trygghet: vad bör staten göra?
WHO uppskattar att omkring 100 till 140 miljoner kvinnor i världen är könsstympade och att 2 miljoner flickor/unga kvinnor riskerar att könsstympas varje år. Den kvinnliga könsstympningen indelas i fyra olika katagorier beroende på ingreppets form och består av allt ifrån att delar av förhuden runt klitoris skärs bort till att klitoris, de inre samt de yttre blygdläpparna skärs bort för att flickan/kvinnan sedan sys ihop och endast har en liten öppning kvar för urin och menstruationsblod. Kvinnlig könsstympning är en gammal sed som har funnits i över 2000 år och baseras på gamla traditioner och sedvänjor och existerar främst i Afrika, i områdena längs med samt norr om ekvatorn. Könsstympning av kvinnor förekommer även i Asien och Mellanöstern. WHO, FN, Amnesty International samt många andra internationella organisationer har uppmärksammat den kvinnliga könsstympningen och arbetar för att förhindra att det sker.

The Swedish do-it-yourself (DIY) market has expanded in recent years and is today a SEK90 billion market.
