The purpose of this essay is to examine which factors that influence the design of internal control in municipal context and how well it works. We choose seven municipals, where we interviewed the administrative managers, the chairmen of the committees and two persons of the staff in each activity unit.

These hypotheses were operationalised into different variables aiming to make statistical tests possible.

Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka när den svenska skattskyldigheten upphör. För att ge uppsatsen ett internationellt perspektiv undersöks vilka regler som gäller för att skatt-skyldigheten skall inträda i Storbritannien. Uppsatsen behandlar också hur en persons hemvist avgörs när han anses som bosatt i både Sverige och Storbritannien.En person som är bosatt eller stadigvarande vistas i Sverige är obegränsat skattskyldig i Sverige. Även den som är bosatt utomlands, men som tidigare har varit bosatt i Sverige och som fortfarande har väsentlig anknytning hit är obegränsat skattskyldig i Sverige enligt 3 kap 3 § inkomstskattelagen (1999:1229). Att en person är obegränsat skattskyldig innebär att han måste betala skatt i Sverige på alla sina inkomster, även om inkomsterna härrör från utlandet (3 kap 8 §).

This thesis is on the subject of different views on abortion. With a qualitative analysis of the family planning policy in China and interviews with four persons living in China I try to answer what abortion can mean in this context. I use the results from an earlier study of the antiabortion lobby pro-life and the last republican candidate Mitt Romney to compare how abortion is being constructed in different ways. Reproduction is in both USA and China, among other countries, a subject for regulation. Following thesis wish to explore how that is done and what consequences it brings.

This report is based on factors that has had affect on drugaddicts in their decission on quitting their abuse. The questions we have built our report on are: What external factors have had an impact on the drugabuser to end his or her drugabuse? What internal factors have had an impact on the drugabuser to end his or her drugabuse? Does the police have an influence on the drugabuser to end his or her drugabuse? The report is based on intervjues with former drugaddicts. We have also studied the theory of symbolic interactionism and litterature written by different authors to obtain a broad picture of drugabuse. Our results in this report show that the people we have intervjued have been influenced by many different factors and people in their enviroment.

To increase the quality in their products ABB is working towards a cleared order concept. That means that all customer specified options are to be known before they start with order calculations and construction. As it is today they use paper checklists to achieve this. One order may have several reactors, and for a reactor there can be several different alternatives. For each alternative a new checklist must be filled out.As of today all reading of the customer specification and checklist fill in with is done by hand by different persons, and sometimes the same data is read more than one time.

This paper deals with the use of Internet at Swedish public libraries. The author asks whether public libraries should or should not limit access to information available on the Internet. Starting from the American discussion, concerning Internet at public libraries, the author shows the Swedish attitudes. The paper demonstrates that many Swedish public libraries have adopted rules forbidding retrieval of certain kinds of information, such as hard-core pornography and racist propaganda. The persons in charge of such actions claim that public libraries should provide high-quality educational literature and should not spread mass-produced, provocative information.

Detta kandidatarbete handlar om hur spelupplevelsen påverkas av en ljuddesign som är skapad genom en persons öron, en sån kallad binaural ljuddesign. I spel och film påverkar ljuddesignen 50% av det man ser och upplever. En stor del av de som spelar spel idag använder sig av hörlurar och headsets för att uppnå den bästa ljudupplevelse och för att de enkelt ska kunna kommunicera via olika röstchatt. Trots detta satsar spelföretag idag på att man ska få det mest kvalitativa ljudupplevelsen via surround-system och för att man enkelt ska kunna höra direktionellt ljud. Detta kan även en binaural ljuddesign återge genom vanliga hörlurar.

The metaphor has been among us since a very long time, but despite over 1.000 years of reflection it is still uncertain how one should understand the concept. There are few, if any, doubts how to understand the definition of metaphor, but is it possible to find a real distinction between the metaphorical and the non-metaphorical? In this essay I seek an answer to when a metaphor is a metaphor or when it is instead a generally accepted concept of how something actually is. I will use previous research on the topic from Aristotle, Friedrich Nietzsche, Paul Ricoeur and George Lakoff and Mark Johnson. These persons have given me a wide perspective and approach to the metaphor ? and when a word should be considered as a metaphor or not.

The purpose of this paper was to study the various organisations that work with drug abusing homeless people in Lund. We have tried to compare the possibilities they have to change the way the homeless people look at themselves. The organisations that we have studied are Aluma, Diakonicentralen, the shelter Piletorp and the social welfare office.The methods used to collect data were interviews with professionals and homeless people as well as reading literature. We have used Ted Goldberg's (docent in social work at the university in Stockholm) theory. He writes that you have to be a significant other to persons with deviant behaviour to be able to help them become a part of the society and to change the way they look at themselves.

This essay discusses children?s rights and control and system of rules in HVB-homes that provide treatment for adolescences with drug abuse prob­lems or criminal behavior. The results of this study are based on interviews with four persons working in managerial positions on different HVB-homes and shows the difficulties of having a children?s rights perspective in a con­text where a higher level of control is necessary to protect the best interest of the child. The study suggests that the question of balance between children?s right and the need for controlling system of rules needs to be fur­ther dis­cussed to improve, and as far as possible guarantee that these adoles­cence receive best possible care and do not suffer unfair restrictions on liber­ties..
