About 29 000 different services was given by the Swedish welfare state to children with disabilities within the ages 0-22 years before October first in the year 2008. Studies about children with disabilities and their experiences of their situation have rarely been done and it is therefore difficult to know how they think and feel about their lives. Both Swedish law and the UN:s convention about children?s rights states that children have the right to tell their opinion in matters that are of their concern. Thus, we don´t know much about if and how the Swedish welfare state maintain this right towards children with disabilities.

The political and civil unrest during the last years of the First World War had a profound impact on the political life in many European countries. Academic research on the Swedish Social Democratic Party and the development of the parliamentary system during these years, often focus on the civil unrest and the mobilization of the labour movement during the spring of 1917, and the impact on Swedish politics of the Russian and German revolutions.This study is an examination of the relation between the Swedish labour movement and the Finnish Civil War of 1918. The general aim of the study is to examine how different levels and organisations of the labour movement acted in regards to the situation in Finland, and how these different levels and organisations interacted with one another. A second aim of this examination is to better understand during what kind of processes of the Swedish labour movement?s history that the Finnish Civil War occurred, and how it affected them.The conclusion of the study is that the there was a disparity between the leadership of the Social Democratic Party (SAP), which at the time was part of the Swedish government together with the liberal party, and the grassroots of the labour movement, organized in trade unions, and in the local organizations of the SAP and the Social Democratic Left Party (SSV).

In a global economy it is important to understand what project management is and how it functions in a contemporary company. This report includes an empirical case study of a project flow, which was conducted in the department Packaging Concept (PC) which is a part of Stora Enso. As all of PC´s customer enquiries are unique and must be considered an individual project, PC continuously works in projects. An analysis of the project flow was conducted based on interviews at and visits to PC as well as relevant documents distributed by the department. The report gives an understanding and analysis of how PC works in projects.

The aim of this study is to understand which strategies helped women escape honourbased violence, by reading the autobiographies of seven women. Honourbased violence is a relatively new problem in Sweden, but it has existed for a long time. According to FN (2012) 5000 women are murdered every year in the name of honour. Honourbased violence is about maintaining the honour of the family. Womens sexuality is connected to men´s honour, and because of that they are not allowed to express it.

The environmental issues have during the last decenniums gained an increased role in both the political arena and in the market economy. The society is therefore more knowledgeable about the environment and our impact on it. Through this enlightened state, stakeholders tend to put pressure on the organizations of today. They, more or less willingly, incorporate this responsibility to be a part of their business. Entrepreneurs in the environmental area have seen this rising market as an opportunity to gain market shares and other positive outcomes.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur de fattigas- samt rättighetsperspektivet kommer till uttryck i Sveriges politik för global utveckling. Uppsatsen ämnar också att diskutera samstämmighetspolitikens prestation utifrån en jämförelse mellan Barometern och handelspolitiken i PGU. Uppsatsens syfte har brutits ned i ett antal konkretiserade fråge-ställningar för att det ska kunna besvaras. Dessa är: Hur uttrycks de fattigas perspektiv och rättighetsperspektivet i PGU? Vilka utvecklingsaspekter eller önskade förändringar lyfts fram i PGU? Vilka problem identifieras i samband med global utveckling och hur ska dessa problem hanteras? Vad säger Barometern om den svenska politikens prestation med PGU? Vilka förutsättningar har samstämmighetspolitiken? Uppsatsen bygger på en icke- positivistisk och hermeneutisk vetenskapssyn vilket innebär att syftet är att nå kunskap och förståelse genom tolkning.

Integrerad produktion (IP) är ett odlingssystem som EU beslutat om att samtliga producenter i medlemsstaterna ska följa från och med 1 jan 2014 (Europaparlamentet, 2009). Arbetet med införandet av detta är redan långt gånget i Sverige och Svenskt Sigill står för en produktmärkning som bland annat innebär att produkten är odlad enligt IP (Svenskt Sigill, 2011). En liknande global märkning finns, där tanken är att reglerna för IP-odling ska vara desamma världen över, för att underlätta internationell handel (GLOBAL G.A.P, 2011).Integrerad produktion (IP) syftar till att ge långvariga och hållbara lösningar i produktion och odling genom att ha det naturliga ekosystemet som kunskapsbas (Svenskt Sigill, 2011). Målet med odlingssystemet är att få hög avkastning och dessutom göra så låg påverkan på naturen och använda så lite energi, gödning- och bekämpningsmedel som möjligt.I detta arbete görs jämförelser av Svenskt Sigills märkning och GLOBAL G.A.P.s krav på vad som krävs för att bli certifierad odlare enligt deras regelverk. Jämförelsen av de olika märkningarna appliceras sedan på odlare i Sverige och i Etiopien.

An inquiry into the post-war European aesthetic and political landscape should take the international organization Unesco?s colour reproductions and travelling exhibitions of paintings into consideration. In these, the organization implements André Malraux? idea of the ?imaginary museum? as a framework for a future cosmopolitical, aesthetic (and utopian) community. During the late 1940?s, the Swedish government also discusses the need for raising an ?aesthetic awareness? amongst their citizens as a consequence to a poor knowledge in the fine arts.

Although the Silverlight application is customized for a particular site, forMicro AB (an ongoing project at Incordia), the template and the classes that are used to manage information, are developed so that they can be used in future projects for Incordia AB..

OpenGL is a standard API that is used to manage 3D graphics on desktop computers. Although OpenGL is independent of customized hardware it?s not suitable for all kinds of devices. Therefore both OpenGL ES andWebGL was created. These can be viewed as subsets of OpenGL.

CSR har kommit att bli centralt i många företags strategier. Vissa akademiker hävdar att företag söker sig till intresseorganisationer som arbetar med CSR för att förbättra sitt CSR-arbete medan andra påstår att det endast är ett sätt att framhäva sitt företag i ett positivt ljus. Till skillnad från de många artiklar som skrivits om vad företag kan vinna på medlemskap i intresseorganisationer fokuserar denna uppsats istället likt Knudsen (2011) på vilka företag som har något att vinna på engagemang i intresseorganisationen The Global Compact. Undersökningen utgår från Knudsens påståenden och prövar om dessa stämmer för svenska företag, via intervjuer med fyra företag av varierande storlek. Våra resultat pekar mot att påståendena i huvudsak stämmer men att de bakomliggande orsakerna varierar när man jämför vår geografiska begränsning mot Knudsens mer globala fokus.
