AbstractAtt vara papperslös innebär att leva utan uppehållstillstånd med avsaknaden av de rättigheter som svenska medborgare har. Denna rättslösa status i kombination med att vara kvinna kan innebära en ökad sårbarhet för diskriminering, våld och förtryck (Bexelius, 2008). I föreliggande studie har 5 yrkesverksamma kvinnor från 4 olika kvinnojourer i Stockholm och närliggande städer intervjuats om deras möten och arbete med papperslösa kvinnor. Fokus har legat på deras kunskap om målgruppen, hur de arbetar praktiskt, vilka perspektiv de utgår från samt hur de beaktar de mänskliga rättigheterna i sin strävan mot att förbättra papperslösa kvinnors livsvillkor. Vi har redogjort för tidigare forskning om globaliseringen, kvinnors migration, medborgarskap, välfärdsstaten, civilsamhället samt i bakgrunden beskrivit kvinnojoursrörelsens framväxt, kvinnojourernas uppdrag och utmaningar, det feministiska perspektivet och kulturell kompetens i förhållande till papperslösa kvinnor.

The aim of this thesis in Archival Science was to explore the concept of electronic archives and the challenges that might be encountered when attempting to move archives into a new digital age, as well as having a closer look at the term e-archive itself. Another aim was to explore how the OAIS reference model works in practice.To explore these questions I decided to do a case study on E-Arkiv Stockholm, a functioning e-archive. I decided to do a study on several documents that were created throughout the project, these included documents related to the planning of the archive, as well as the final report. My reason for this method was that these docu-ments came straight from reality and would give a clear and unbiased view of the project and it?s many aspects.Examination of the documents showed that the OAIS reference model and its concepts had been the foun-dation of much of the planning.

The primary purpose of this thesis is to study how political agents construct and give meaning to the concepts of democracy, representative democracy and referendums. The starting point of the thesis is the pressing issue whether or not Sweden should hold a referendum on the new EU constitution. To analyze this question my choice of method is critical discourse analysis and the topical theories revolve around democracy and responsibility.My study shows that there are three different discourses in this debate: ?the democratic process?, ?the representative democracy? and ?the concept of democracy?. However, the meaning of the concepts in these discourses varies depending on which side the political agents are on.

Protracted social conflicts, as those in Cyprus and Northern Ireland, are based on deep rooted perceptions of identity and definitions of "the other". According to the theory of discursive conflict transformation, war is primarily a social phenomenon, which is legitimated by a discourse of identity defined in terms of exclusionist boundaries and structural ideas of the social relations in society. In order to develop positive peace, the discourse of violence has to be challenged and the discursive structures that enable war have to transform into a counterdiscourse of inclusion and individuality. For the purpose of making a critical peace analysis, I have, with the assistance of established conflict theories, analysed the basic ideas behind the the Annan Plan and the Belfast Agreement and thus been able to interpret to what extent they may foster positive peace. I argue, that in order to provide basic needs on a group basis, power sharing arrangement, based on ethnicity or religion, exacerbates division rather than ameliorating it.

Mobile telecom and the Internet are converging, which opens new possibilities for market actors to create business through the mobile handset.

Migrationsverket har kritiserats hårt för att inte ha tillräcklig kunskap i homo-, bi- och transsexualitetsfrågor, eftersom människor nekats uppehållstillstånd trots att de uppfyllt kriterierna. Samkönade par har inte behandlats som par i ansökningsprocessen. Människor med "fel" sexualitet har fram till 2005 inte beviljats asyl med sin sexuella läggning som skäl, eftersom det inte klassats som tillräcklig förföljelsegrund för flyktingstatus. Praktiker som dessa har kritiserats för att utgå från en heteronormativ diskurs som är diskriminerande.Queerfeministisk teori kritiserar samhälleliga normer som påverkar hur människor behandlas. Med hjälp av en queerfeministisk teori urskiljs och analyseras heteronormativa diskurser i svensk migrationspolicy.
