Syftet med denna uppsats var att undersöka utslussning och eftervård av ungdomar som är familjehemsplacerade då de blir myndiga. För att uppnå syftet gjordes en redogörelse för den rättsliga regleringen av eftervården samt hur eventuella förberedande insatser för vårdens avslut planeras. Genom intervjuer med socialsekreterare studerades även hur socialtjänsten i praktiken förbereder ungdomar för livet efter en familjehemsplacering. Både en juridisk och rättsociologisk metod användes i undersökningen. Resultaten av datainsamlingen analyserades utifrån ett empowerment perspektiv.

Denna sociologiska C-uppsats handlar om stöd till anhörigstödjare. Den har ett hermeneutiskt förhållningsätt och data har samlats in genom kvalitativ metod. Fokus har riktats till Gislaved, Gnosjö, Vaggeryd och Värnamos kommuner (GGVV regionen).Efter kontakt med kommunernas anhörigsamordnare väcktes intresset att undersöka de olika stöden till anhörigstödjare som finns i GGVV regionen. Då stöden gått från att erbjudas i samma form till alla, till att erbjudas individuellt fanns ett intresse av att undersöka vilka stöd kommunerna erbjuder. För att få en djupare förståelse av stöden har det även undersökts vilka stöd som finns, vilka som tar emot stöden, hur gemenskapen upplevs, men även hur anhörigstödjare anser att stöden påverkar dem.

Throughout the years the Swedish local history societies have collected a large quantity of material, consisting of photos, documents and items, among others. As the society has become more computerized, the need has increased for these collections to become digitalized. This is a way to make their media more easily accessible to the general public, but also to easily be able to archive and preserve for example photos and videos electronically.This thesis concerns itself with the work we have done for the local history society of Nyed in Molkom. The task set before us consisted of creating both a website for the society, and a reliable database from witch the website draws its information. This project allows anyone with administrator privileges to upload new files and any additional information.

This study has as an objective to compare and evaluate the living conditions of two immigrant children residing in different places in Sweden. Given that immigrants often are looked upon as a social and physical vulnerable group in relation to disadvantageous socioeconomic conditions the children's lives were analyzed in relation to four public health objects. By using Runkeeper, GIS, Equipop data, time geographic material, telephone conversations and a web survey the children lives are analyzed within their activity spaces. The children formed their lives in different socioeconomic environments and adapted their lives after their conditions. The perspective on individual level can be put in contrast with studies based on society level.

This essay is about democracy and how a democracy index can be used as a tool to illustratethe gap between reality and ideal. The purpose of this study can be expressed by two researchquestions: Does the Economist Intelligence Unit's (EIU) democracy index illustrate thedistance between reality and the ideal of democracy presented by Dahl? and Can the EIU'sdemocracy index be modified by a) internal adjustments and b) using the variables includedin World Economic Forum?s (WEF) equality index?By using a combination of theories (Dahl?s theory of democracy, Rawls theory of justice andchosen theories critical to liberal democracy) as an analytical framework the following twoquestions have been answered:1) Which of the variables included in the EIU's democracy index have the potential to capturethe level of political equality?2) Which of the variables included in the WEF?s equality index have the potential to capturethe degree of political equality?By using a quantitative method the study?s third and last question has been answered:3) How strong is the rank correlation between the EIU?s democracy index and the WEF?sequality index, that is; how strong is the rank correlation coefficient (rho)?The data presented by the WEF?s equality index indicate that women are systematicallydiscriminated against as a group. From a democratic perspective the EIU may need tomeasure inequalities at a group level in order to capture the lack of political equality betweenindividuals. By reformulating some of the EIU?s variables, by revising the EIU?s point systemand by using the variables included in the WEF's equality index to extend EIU?s democracyindex, the chances of capturing the gap between reality and the ideal of democracy presentedby Dahl would likely increase..
