With this essay I have tried to give an image of some Swedish teenagers opinions about Islam. I have also done research on how the Swedish school depicts Islam and how the media in Sweden and other western countries describe Islam and Muslims.

This is an image that seems to have influenced how young people in Sweden look at Muslims.I have handed out a questionnaire at schools in Kalmar and Jönköping, Sweden.

Kommunen har möjlighet att med hjälp av en detaljplan reglera användningen av mark- och vattenområden. Detaljplanens planbestämmelser är rättsligt bindande efter att planen har vunnit laga kraft och vad som får regleras med dem anges i 4 kapitlet plan- och bygglagen (PBL). Kapitlet är uttömmande vilket betyder att endast det som står uppräknat där får regleras. Kapitlet ger även krav på planbestämmelsernas tydlighet. I PBL finns även att läsa att det är en kommunal angelägenhet att planlägga mark och vatten vilket leder till att kommunen har planmonopol. I de fall kommunen använder sig av planbestämmelser i en detaljplan som inte har stöd i PBL:s 4 kapitel innebär det att gällande lagstiftning ej följs.
