Sweden is a multi cultural country, where almost twenty percent of the population come from another cultural background. This study examines to what extent people with a foreign origin appear in two local, Swedish newspapers, Barometern and Östra Småland, and what role they are given. Do they appear as foreigners or immigrants or do they figure as any Swede, irrespective of their origin background?We have made a review by studying pictures of people with a foreign origin, based on name and appearance. During the time period, March 1st ? April 30 th 2010, there were 2206 articles with pictures of people where 189 of them did show people with a foreign origin.

Abstract    The purpose of my essay is to understand how language and identity interact in individuals with an immigrant backgrounds? My main focus is rooted in the individual`s identity and my questions are:-        How is the informants talkning about the importance of being able to make themselves understood with the language?-        How do they talk about the creation of identity?-        How does language and identity be linked in their discourse about language and identity?   To accomplish this and to answer my questions I have chosen to use a qualitative method based of interviews. I believe that this method is the most appropriate in order to provide answers to my questions. I interviewed four people who have lived in Sweden between 3-6 years. Two of  the  informants are from Latvia and speak fluent swedish, the two other informants come from Chile and are currently learning swedish.

Palliativ vård innebär att ge aktiv total vård till patienten i ett skede när sjukdom inte längre kan botas. Sjuksköterskor som jobbar inom den palliativa vården måste kunna fånga upp patientens behov. Det måste också finnas ett starkt engagemang och lyhördhet för patienten, samt att sjuksköterskan ska kunna se döden som en naturlig del av livet. Enligt sjuksköterskorna är kommunikationen grundläggande för förståelsen mellan henne och patienten, för att kunna känna igen och förstå de känslor och reaktioner som patienten visar. Syftet med studien var att belysa vad sjuksköterskkor upplever vara viktigt i mötet med patienter inom palliativ vård.

The project team has chosen to carry out the project itself. This is to be able to work more flexibly in the product development process and not be guided by some guidelines.Every day, we read in the media about a new truck burglary. The problem has become so common that we do not even notice it in the media. Each year the theft of 1 billion of Sweden and the entire 82 billion in Europe in 2008. This is an increase of 10 billion by 2007.

Den palliativa vården har i dag hamnat i fokus, den bedrivs både på sjukhus, i den primära vården och i hemmen. Palliativ vård innebär inte att bota utan att lindra symtom och öka livskvaliteten för patienter med livshotande sjukdom. För de som befinner sig i livets slutskede är det av stor vikt att de psykiska, fysiska, sociala, andliga och existentiella behoven tillfredsställs för att lindra det lidande som uppstår. Syftet med litteraturstudien är att beskriva patientens upplevelse att vara vid livets slut, för att färigenom få större förståelse för palliativ vård. Studien bygger på två biografier som handlar om att vara i livets slut utifrån två kvinnors egna upplevelser.

Syftet med mitt examensprojekt har varit att genom min designprocess försöka arbeta fram en terminalmöbel där flygplatsen har stått i fokus då det fungerat som min tilltänkta kontext. I min möbel har jag även försökt tillämpa det formspråk som finns hos flygplan, för att på så sätt försöka skapa en möbel som är väl anpassad för sin tänkta kontext.Genomgående i hela projektet har hållbarhet, vardagens estetik samt användning varit centrala begrepp då dessa var de tilldelade ledord som vi fick i början av projektet.I processen arbetade jag först fram tre olika idékoncept som jag valde att kalla ?väskor med sittyta?, modulmöbler samt flygplansinspirerade möbler. Av dessa tre valde jag sedan att gå vidare med de flygplansinspirerade möblerna.Förutom användandet av metoder så som observationer på Kalmar Airport, Arlanda Airport samt Helsingfors Airport, ITK (Identity Tool Kit), Stateboard och Futureboard, för att på så sätt beskriva min syn på dagens terminalmöbler. Så har jag även för att stärka min möbels utformning gjort research på olika typer av sittställningar som är anpassade vid olika typer av användning.

The purpose of this study was to see how the teacher works with children´s language and what working methods they use to develop language, as well as knowledge, among the children in a multilingual school.The main questions for the essay:? What reasons the interviewed teachers about language development?? What approach do the interviewed teachers describe that they use in their multi-lingual children?s group?In order to collect empirical data to my study I chose to use a qualitative method, which consisted of interviews with four teachers in a multilingual class. The study is based on a socio-cultural perspective where social interaction, blocking, communication and language use is the main tool for children's learning and development.The results of my study revealed that teachers realize that when they involve teamwork in class it enhances the activity among the children. In particular when the bilingual children use the language actively in different contexts where they communicate and discuss with each other in the teaching subject. When the children use language in different contexts it also enables them to develop linguistically and in terms of knowledge.

The number of public schools in Sweden has increased strongly over the past twenty years. This essay gives a possible explanation to how the Social Democratic Party in Sweden took part in this evaluation from 1987 to 1997. I've analysed how the party's ideology in this issue was shaped and adapted to the opposite politics, when the Liberals and Conservatives Parties were in government.The empirical analyse is primarily based on official documents from the Parlament such as debates, government bills and motions. I have also studied the Social Democratic Party's congresses which took place during this period of time. I have practised two different theories in analysing the motives behind the acting.

The purpose of the work is to highlight schools work to prevent bullying and abusive treatment, find out about schools work to prevent bullying and abusive treatment follow what is written in the governing documents and how schools can work preventively against the same. The questions have been investigated through qualitative interviews and analysis of documents or in the theoretical background. The interviewees and partially schools were selected through an arbitrarily selection. In each plan against abusive treatment states that the monitoring and evaluation should be conducted in a manner that is not consistent with the responses from leisure educator 1, 2 and 3. School B's plan does not contain an overview of the measures needed to prevent and stop abusive treatment of children.

There are many barriers and obstacles that need to be removed to make the urban environment more accessible for people with disabilities. There are currently no adequate tools for urban planners to assess and address these obstacles. Geographical Information Systems (GIS) provide powerful methods for the visualization and analysis of spatial data, including the kind of data important in studies of accessibility. This study suggests a method urban planners can use to identify accessibility obstacles and to propose future actions to fix them.A literature review was conducted to find out what has been done and what is new regarding the accessibility issues. Different methods were evaluated which in turn led to the construction of a multi-step analytical strategy.

The purpose of this study was to examine the incentives behind Sweden?s decision to engagein the Afghanistan conflict.The method used to fulfil the purpose of the study is content analysis. The material that hasbeen used in the study is various books and articles concerning Sweden in Afghanistan,Swedish foreign policy and perspectives in political science.The study is multi-theoretical and thus the analysis explains the incentives from a liberal, arealist and a constructivist point of view.The conclusion of the study is that identity has a great part in explaining the incentives forSweden to engage in Afghanistan, especially because of the transformation in strategy andforeign policy that has taken place since the end of the cold war. Other factors, such as peacebuilding and national interests also are incentives supported by the material used in the study.Yet, perhaps they are first and foremost connected by the constructivist idea of identity..

Sweden has had laws protecting nature for about a hundred years. In this paper the views of nature and the values that serve as a rationale for protective measures are analyzed as results of a social process characterized by the dialectic relationship between institutions and discourse. Critical discourse analysis (CDA) is used to study this relationship and the discursive practices used by institutions, which reproduce or reshape views of nature that define the relationship between society and nature. Institutional design contributes to shaping discourse in the field of nature protection, while being originally shaped by discourse. In Sweden, the national park is an institution that reproduces a view of nature as the wild and untamed opposite of society, and the natural reserves reproduce a view of nature as holder of a multi-faceted set of values intertwined with society.

Itraconazole is a third generation azol, a fungicide which acts by inhibiting ergerosterol synthesis in the fungal cell membrane, and thereby disturbing fungal regeneration. It has proven to be less toxic, to have a broader spectrum of activity and to be more potent than its predecessor ketoconazole. Itraconazole is only available in therapheutics approved for human use. Pharmacokinetic studies has been performed in humans, dogs, cats and laboratory animals. Although itraconazole has been used tentatively with good effect against fungal infections in horses, no pharmacokinetic studies have yet been done.
