This essay is called ?The hunt for anarchists- a study about the police in Stockholm's collection of bandit portrait during the turn of the century 1900? and it is about the criminal category ?Anarchists? who the police in Stockholm used at the turn of the century 1900.  In the archive from the police in Stockholm during the essays time perspective, 1899-1909,  there are about one hundred photographs in the category ?Anarchists?, about half of these pictures have no information besides the names of the people, but the other half, 48 persons, have some information about age, work title and where the person come from. The information showed that the people in the pictures where not from Sweden, and after controlling them in all different kinds of archives I found only ten of them have left any traces in Stockholm. What I realized then was that the people on the pictures are anarchists from different countries in Europe, mostly from Italy, and that the police in Stockholm had these pictures because different police stations around Europe had sent them to the police in Stockholm. The police in Stockholm where on the lookout for fugitive anarchists.The literature about the anarchist movement in Italy during this time describe the hard situation for Italian anarchists.

Medberoende har blivit ett relativt vedertaget begrepp sedan 1980-talet. Termens syfte var att beskriva det beteende som en person åsamkades av att leva tillsammans med en alkoholmissbrukare samt hur denna person även möjliggjorde för missbrukaren att fortsätta i sitt mönster. Forskning har visat att fler kvinnor än män tenderat att bli medberoende och att män oftare lämnat en missbrukande partner. Kritiker har därför menat att begreppet endast identifierat ett kvinnligt fenomen och att termen fungerat kränkande mot kvinnor samt bortsett från det faktum att kvinnan tillhör en underlägsen grupp i samhället. Inom socialt arbete i Sverige har det hittills varit sparsamt med forskning utifrån könsteoretiska utgångspunkter.
