I denna C-uppsats har vi mot bakgrund av att Migrationsverket inte längre driver några flyktingförläggningar i egen regi, studerat det aktörslandskap som tagit över denna uppgift. I studien har vi intervjuat två offentliga, en ideell och tre privata aktörer som driver asylboenden. Vi har utgått från att asylboenden är en välfärdstjänst och att utförarna därför står för tillämpningen av en välfärdstjänst.Syftet har varit att studera de olika utförarnas idéer om asylboenden som välfärdstjänst och analysera idéerna utifrån ett ideologiskt förankrat ideal om välfärd. Därför har vi utarbetat idealtyper som vi baserat på Esping-Andersens (1990) typologi av korporativa (konservativa), liberala och socialdemokratiska välfärdsregimer och kompletterat våra idealtyper med annan teori. Social stratifiering, reglering, dekommodifiering och vinstintresse är de begrepp som ingått i de idealtyper vi använt oss av.

The Earth and everything else in the universe was created in the Big Bang around 14 billion years ago. A point with tremendous density and mass began to expand and more and more atoms began to form. From the first and lightest like hydrogen and helium to heavier atoms such as iron and eventually gold. The formation of the Earth occurred about 4.6 billion years ago and so the first gold atoms were concentrated only here. It is however believed that much later in Earth's history an extra supply of gold occurred thanks to massive meteorite bombardments.

Tankar om ett paradis har funnit i tusentals år, men det har återkommit i olika skepnader och under olika namn. Även i dag skapar människan sig en bild av ett paradis och i detta arbete görs en jämförelse mellan dåtidens och nutidens paradisskildringar. Frågan är om vi ser någon skillnad mellan dåtiden och nutidens? De större västerländska filosofipåverkande epoker, såsom antiken, den keltiska och fornnordiska mytologin, den kristna, beskriver ett paradisiskt ideal som i mycket liknar vartannat. Edens lustgård är kanske det mest kända paradis, men som är en kombination av flera olika paradis.

During the last decade executive coaching has become an increasingly popular method of management development. Few studies have been conducted within this area, especially in Sweden, and little has been said about the construction of management in executive coaching. The purpose of this master?s thesis is to study executive coaching from a social constructionist perspective, focusing on the construction of management. The two research questions are: How is management constructed in executive coaching? How can we understand the construction of management in executive coaching? Additionally, we identify gender as a social construction of importance and thus include a gender perspective in our analysis.

From a democratic viewpoint, the way in which the media frames politics is essential. Should issue frames be left out in favor of other types of frames, it could result in voters struggling to make informed decisions come Election Day. What is more, research shows that game frames may cause lack of confidence in politicians and declining political interest. Against this background, the present study aimed to find out how two broadsheets, Dagens Nyheter and Svenska Dagbladet, and two tabloids, Aftonbladet and Expressen, framed politics in connection with the 2014 Swedish parliamentary elections. The thesis also intended to identify possible differences between the two newspaper types and to make tentative comparisons with previous studies so as to be able to comment on framing developments.

Denna studie syftar till att undersöka manliga handelsanställdas uppfattning om klädsel och utseende i förhållande till maskulinitet. För att uppnå vårt syfte har vi valt att undersöka vilka yttre faktorer som påverkar mäns syn på utseende och klädsel i arbetet och privat. Vi har även undersökt på vilket sätt manliga handelsanställdas syn på manlighet är relaterat till deras synsätt på utseende och klädsel. Forskningen kring klädsel och utseende är omfattande, men den forskningen behandlar ämnet främst ur ett kvinnligt perspektiv, däri ligger en av bakgrundsfaktorerna till att vi fann detta ämne intressant att studera.Arbetet vilar på teorier kring maskulinitet, ideal, stereotyper samt estetisk kompetens. Genom att genomföra intervjuer med manliga handelsanställda kom vi fram till att klädseln och utseendet inom arbetet, men även privat är av stor betydelse för synen på maskulinitet och manlighet.
