Syfte: Vårt syfte med studien har varit att studera olika behandlingsmetoder för män i olika sociala verksamheter i Göteborg. Dessa verksamheter använder sig av behandlingsprogrammen ATV, Alternativ til vold, och IDAP, Integrated Domestic Abuse Programme, för att motverka mäns våld mot kvinnor i nära relationer.Frågeställningar: - Vad har behandlarna för förklaringsmodeller till uppkomsten av mäns våld mot kvinnor i nära relationer?- Hur beskrivs och hur påverkar de aktuella behandlingsmetoderna männen utifrån behandlarnas perspektiv?- Vad anser behandlarna att det finns för möjligheter respektive svårigheter med behandlingen?Teorianknytning: Resultatet har analyserats med hjälp av följande teorier; den ekologiska förklaringsmodellen, anknytningsteori, social inlärningsteori, generell systemteori, kommunikationsteori och teori om genus-/maktrelationer.Metod: Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ metod och genomförde intervjuer med hjälp utav en halvstrukturerad intervjuguide. Metoden anser vi är bäst lämpad för vår studie då den hjälper oss att fånga upp informanternas, det vill säga behandlarnas erfarenheter och kunskaper kring syftet med vår studie. Resultat: Samtliga informanter utgår från den ekologiska förklaringsmodellen, det vill säga att de ser orsaker till våldet utifrån olika nivåer alltifrån strukturer på samhälls- och genusnivå till förklaringar som har med faktorer under uppväxten att göra.

South Africa has been among the top ten wine producing countries for at least 20 years. Even though the land under grapevines is decreasing globally it is still increasing in Africa. The awareness of environment has strengthen the last years and South African producers experience a high demand of environmentally friendly produced wine, especially from the European market. This demand was the driving force behind the development of the world unique sustainability certification, Integrated Production of Wine (IPW), which is inscribed in the South African legislation. What makes this certification unique is that consumers can trace their product all the way back to the farming practices owing to the identity number specified on the IPW Integrity & Sustainability seal on certified products.

To support uniform and fair assessment of Swedish students? English language competences, mandatory National tests are provided both for secondary and upper secondary education. The current thesis may be seen as a contribution to the further development and validation of these tests, with regard to the likely introduction of computerized testing methods. The aim is to gain further knowledge from current research in the field, to study and elucidate international experiences of implementation, and to gather and analyze feedback from students and teachers. Based on my findings, some tentative conclusions will be drawn, and recommendations made concerning future developments.

This paper is a critique of an article in the Swedish magazine Filosofisk Tidskrift (Philosophical Magazine), in which professor Per Bauhn maintains that there is something wrong with having a group perspective in moral and political matters. In this article Bauhn makes three conclusions. The first one is that you violate Hume's law if you draw the conclusion that something is an oppression only from descriptive premises, which for example communitarians does according to Bauhn. He argues that ?oppression? is a normative term, and therefore it requires at least one normative premise.

We live in a time where the influence of citizens is taking a larger role in the spatial planning. The Swedish laws, such as PBL, deals with matters of citizen participation which advocates that the youth should be included in the consultation circuit, but there is no directive given.  The report's purpose is to demonstrate methods for how to get the young people's influence included in the spatial planning, with a main focus on the ages between 13 and 21. On the base of literature and two case studies, the goal is to illustrate how to integrate young people through a meeting place in Jonkoping, Sweden. The report is structured along with an analysis based on the literature, two case studies from previous projects and discussions/interviews with young people from four selected areas in Jonkoping.  The case studies from Malmo and Gothenburg show how the cooperation between different participants can be organized during the planning and how to give the users a greater involvement. Based on literature and case studies, we carried out a field analysis of the four most segregated areas of Jonkoping; Osterangen, Oxnehaga, Ekhagen and Raslatt.

Mitt examensarbete har utförts på uppdrag av ATEA/Exait i Luleå, för Coop Norrbotten. Målet med arbetet har varit att designa, implementera och dokumentera en ny, förbättrad nätverkslösning för Coop Norrbottens butiker, samt att konstruera en detaljerad utrullningsplan för implementation i produktionsmiljö med minimala driftstopp. Min handledare på ATEA var Leif Häggström, seniorkonsult och specialist på brandväggar och nätverkssäkerhet. Jag har även arbetat nära den huvudansvarige för IT på Coop Norrbottens huvudkontor i Luleå; Per-Ola Björnfot.Kraven som fanns på den nya designen från Coop Norrbottens sida var att säkerheten på nätverket skulle förbättras avsevärt, och att strukturen även skulle göras mer modulär och resurseffektiv. Den utrustning som initialt var tillgänglig för designen var den som redan fanns i drift ute på Coops affärer: ?1x Cisco 1811 Integrated Services Router?1x 3Com 3226 L3 access-switch?1x HP Procurve 1800 PoE-switch?2x Trådlösa accesspunkter från Trapeze (Juniper)Utgångspunkten var, som nämnts ovan, att designen skulle baseras enbart på befintlig utrustning.

The purpose of this study is to dig deeper into the perceptions regarding diversity - and the ambition to achieve increased such - among those who have participated in the Swedish Public Service diversity coach education. Furthermore, the aim is also to problematize, and increase the awareness of, different outlooks on diversity and its practical usage. All in all, ten so called ?Zebra coaches? have been interviewed for this study. The empirical material has been analysed through a theoretical framework that problematizes the constructs of inequality, based on gender, ethnicity, race, class, etc., on different levels.

Media ger oss närmast dagligen information om uppköp mellan större företag. Detta visar på att företagsuppköp är ett vanligt inslag i dagens affärsliv. Tidigare studier som behandlar ämnet uppköp fokuserar i huvudsak på de integrerande företagen. Det är viktigt att inte bara studera de integrerande företagen utan att även lyfta blicken och undersöka leverantörerna bakom. Vi antar i denna uppsats att leverantörer till det uppköpta företaget kommer att påverkas och även reagera på ett uppköp.

Konventionella databassystem är passiva. Detta innebär att databasen förändras genom explicita användarkommandon. Ett aktivt databassystem är ett databassystem som bevakar situationer (events) av intresse och, när de inträffar, utlöser ett lämpligt beteende (action) förutsatt att ett visst villkor (condition) är uppfyllt [Kim95]. De aktiva databassystemen sägs ha ett aktivt beteende. Detta beteende kan t ex specificeras i sk ECA-regler.I de passiva databassystemen kan det aktiva beteendet efterliknas på två olika sätt.

A good power quality can be an important prerequisite to achieve a sustainable society. Scandinavia's electrical system is in many respects superior, and Sweden has a fossil free electricity generation at 97 % and a reliability of electricity distribution at 99.98 %. Meanwhile, the EU has an ambition to expand the electricity market in order to achieve a joint trading business across Europe. This cross-border market will result in a large proportion of fossil energy sources integrated into our electrical system, which also leads to an increased need for renewable electricity production in Sweden. One part of this development is to increase the share of renewable micro generation that is locally or regionally connected to the power grid.

By immersion in the situation of the food production today and a historical study of how past development has led us to this point, one goal of this essay is to discuss whether the current way of farming can be applied in a sustainable future. Another objective of the essay is to study the vision Vertical farming as an alternative approach, and to focus on different aspects of this phenomenon in order to provide as comprehensive a picture as possible.The paper, thus, seeks to broaden the views for alternative approaches regarding a well-established method which we often take for granted. The aim is also to initiate a discussion around the need to also take radical ideas in regard if we want to face the future in a sustainable manner. The method is a qualitative literary study where scientific articles and papers have been used to discuss the issues: why has the idea of Vertical farming arisen, what is Vertical farming and how is the Vertical Farm meant to operate? Does Vertical farming have a place in the sustainable city of the future? For a long time us humans lived as one with nature, in a symbiotic relationship in which we gave and took as a functioning part of an ecosystem.

Generally in Macedonia keeping farm records and farm business planning is not often practiced like an ordinary activity in farming. Therefore one of the crucial things to do it is to comprise and continuously practice record keeping of farm data. The efficient and justified farm business planning should be based on farm records about the previous work of the farm, which will bring a structured approach for planning all the activities, as well as provide a good basis for attracting investors and creditors for the additional expansion of the business.Given that sheep breeding holds an important part of the livestock production in Macedonia, there is a need for adding analytical sheep enterprise budgets to support the farm business planning process at sheep farms.The aim of this research was to develop sheep enterprise budgets created on the best production practice for Macedonian conditions of breeding and test their applicability into the farm business plan model Agriwise Macedonia. The sheep budgets were composed with a process of data collecting consisted of direct farm data (for the cases), expert's consultation and relevant desk research, as well as a literature study. The aim of doing it was to attain more accurate calculations of the enterprise budgets, which will result in a more precise outcome in the farm business plan model Agriwise Macedonia.

The process of European Integration and creation of the single market revealed many questions and boundaries on the development and improvement of the European Social Policy. Pension?s sustainability has become the priority issue especially during the EU enlargement processes. Different policy instruments and institutions available to governments of Member States in realization of social objectives resulted in a growing diversity of pension polices which produced different combinations of public and private provisions - ?private-public hybrids? , with the state exercising different degrees of influence in their development.

The purpose of this study was to investigate what knowledge 16 year old highschool students have when it comes to text- and imageposting on social media and how they act on the basis of their skills and attitudes on text and image publishing. An important aspect of this was to investigate the impact of young people 's identity in relation to text- and image posting on social media as this according to research is a big part of what motivates young people in their everyday practices (Buckingham, 2008). The essay questions was , What is young people?s experience on posting text- and image on social media? How aware are young people at the pros and cons on posting text and images on social media? What are young people's attitudes about text and image posting? And how do young people act on the basis of experience , awareness and attitude? Which role plays identity in their actions? To seek answers to my questions and achieve the aim of the thesis was conducted three semi-structured focusgroup interviews in collaboration with two high schools. The results have been reported, interpreted and analyzed by pattern-seeking. The theoretical framework used in this paper is the research and theories of primarily media researchers who have distinguished themselves in the Media and Youth research, For example, Ulla Carlsson, David Buckingham, Sonia Livingstone and Kristen Drotner.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) refers to adjusting corporate goals so that they are not only based on maximizing corporate profits, but include ethical standards on socially desirable behavior (Boatright, 2008). Even though many companies have integrated CSR into their business operations, there are still many issues that are difficult to tackle. Especially Multinational Corporations (MNCs) in the global business environment face many challenging situations due to the fact that they often have linkages to countries where the local government is either unwilling or unable to take care of its responsibilities. MNCs often find themselves with increased responsibilities when they start solving some of the issues that earlier have been the sole responsibility of states. A specific case situation discussed in this paper is related to ?conflict minerals?.
