The purpose of this study has been to analyze how managers within the elderly care who operate according to the Social Services Act work to support the assistant nurses with the social documentation. In order to achieve my purpose and to be able to answer the research questions, a qualitative approach was selected. My empirical material consists of seven interviews, four with assistant nurses and three with managers. Anthony Giddens? structuration theory in Månsson, (2003 s. 422) has been my theoretical starting-point and the concepts of practical and discursive consciousness have been used in the analysis.

Studien syftar till att beskriva och analysera anledningar till studieavbrott från gymnasieskolan samt hur studie- och yrkesvägledningen är organiserad respektive kan utvecklas för att förebygga studieavbrott. Studien bygger på kvalitativa semistrukturerade intervjuer med rektorer och studie- och yrkesvägledare, verksamma vid sju olika kommuner i norra Sverige. Studien visar att ohälsa och felval är de främsta anledningarna till studieavbrott och att anledningarna anses ligga på individnivå. Det förebyggande arbetet på skolorna sker främst reaktivt, alltså när det finns en elev som är på väg att avbryta sina studier. Det finns generellt sett varken en plan, utvärdering eller uppföljning av arbetet.

The purpose of this thesis is to examine how investments are justified in the Swedish data center industry, with a focus on cooling equipment. This is achieved through semi-structured interviews with 20 different interviewees. These interviewees represent different facets of the industry and facilitate an understanding of which factors, such as: investment costs, operating costs, reliability, environmental impact and the influence of external and internal actors, come into play and to which degree they impact the investment decision-making process. The results show that primarily low operating cost in the form of low energy consumption is the driving factor when it comes to the procurement of new equipment. A lower environmental impact is a positive side-effect of lower energy consumption.

This is a 20 points graduation thesis, performed at the Department of Urban and Rural Development at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences in Uppsala. The main aim of this thesis is to examine what it is like to combine studying with working and starting your own company. Furthermore, I want to be able to convey this knowledge to others. An important part of being a landscape architect is informing people, and making rather abstract issues tangible. The word 'entrepreneur' is originally French. Today, we think of entrepreneurs, or contractors, as energetic people, who dare to try new ideas. There are many reasons why people start their own company, but the most common ones are the wish to fulfil oneself and to be able to plan one's own time.

Denna kvalitativa studie unders?ker vilka motiv som ligger bakom gymnasieelevers val att l?sa ?mnet svenska som andraspr?k, sva, och vilka erfarenheter de har med flerspr?kighet i klassrummet. Studien har en fenomenologisk ansats d?r elevernas livsv?rldar och dess spr?kliga repertoarer anses p?verka elevernas beslut och f?rh?llnings?tt (Busch 2017). Detta inneb?r att elevernas uppfattning om ?mnet sva och deras inst?llning till flerspr?kighet p?verkas av deras tidigare erfarenheter.

AbstractSkanska Sweden has decided to split the organization that earlier handled both large and small projects into two different subsidiaries.

This essay examines through a sociological perspective how physical objects in Ted Kooser?s poetry collection "Delights & Shadows" can be used to depict the characters? social environment. This is done by examining the physical objects found in 25 poems, the relationships between subjects and objects, and how this relationship can describe the social environment. The essay also examines how the relationship between subjects, objects, and the presence of the social environment within the text affects the reader experience. The physical objects are examined with Bill Brown?s Thing Theory as "things" that stop working for humans, when their flow within the circuits of production and distribution, consumption and exhibition is arrested, however momentarily.

Just nu p?g?r studier om nya tekniker inom forensisk verksamhet som ska m?jligg?ra anv?nd ning av DNA f?r att f?ruts?ga fenotypiska egenskaper, s?som ?gon- och h?rf?rg, fr?n biologiskt material som hittats p? brottsplatser. Dessa prediktioner kan vara s?rskilt v?rdefulla i utred ningar d?r traditionell DNA-profilering inte ger tillr?cklig information. I denna rapport har data fr?n R?ttsmedicinalverket anv?nts, best?ende av sex single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associerade med ?gonf?rg och 22 SNPs associerade med h?rf?rg, insamlade fr?n 85 individer.

Bakgrund: Inom de närmaste 5 åren planerar var fjärde småföretagare att dra sig tillbaka, detta innebär ungefär 60 000 företag eller 180 000 företag om även egenföretagarna räknas med. Detta beror på att 40-talisterna är en stor demografisk åldersgrupp och likt de yngre 60-och 70-talisterna har de inte sålt av sina bolag i samma utsträckning. Vad som händer med dessa bolag är osäkert, en del har en färdig plan för generationsskiftet andra är mer osäkra på vad som kommer att ske, omkring 10 procent av småföretagen väntas läggas ner, ytterligare 25 procent har ingen plan för hur ägarskiftet kommer att ske. För att belysa läget ännu mer så säger sig 42 procent av landets småföretagare att de har som avsikt att dra sig tillbaka inom 10 år (Företagarna, 2009). Detta ser inte alla som ett problem i sig utan det finns nu möjlighet att köpa sig ett företag istället för att starta eget.

After the appointment of a new European Commission in 2004, ?communication? was made a top priority on the agenda. The Commission presented a new communication policy, which would establish a dialogue with the citizens, thereby bringing more democracy to the union and bridging the gap to the citizens. Three documents containing the policy were published, namely an internal action plan for the Commission, Plan D which establishes the framework for national debates and a whitepaper on EU communication policy. These documents were met by mistrust and criticism from many different actors such as journalists and experts.The aim of this master thesis is to examine this new communication policy from a deliberative democratic perspective.
