The purpose of this paper is to study how the wooded hay meadow of the forest district of northeastern Scania is preserved today, and what local history it has, to thereby achieve a better understanding of the dynamics of the landscape and the complex of problems involved in keeping a historical element of the cultural landscape alive. To accomplish this, literature concerning the subject has been studied, experts have been consulted and an example, the old farm Sporrakulla in Östra Göinge municipality, has been studied. The paper states that the wooded hay meadow constitutes an important part of the history of northeastern Scania, where it provided leaf fodder and hay for the farmers keeping cattle. Today, however, only a few wooded hay meadows remain. One of these is the studied example at Sporrakulla, where juridical protection like Natura 2000 and financial support of maintenance like miljöersättningar make sure that the wooded hay meadow will remain.

The company can also devote its efforts to working with its core value, which is service.

Islam är Sveriges näst största religion och därför är det väldigt viktigt att det finns bra och korrekt information kring hur man som muslim vill ha sin begravning utförd, efter-som alla har rätt till en värdig begravning. Uppsatsen uppmärksammar att det finns stora olikheter i hur man förhåller sig till och tolkar de muslimska begravningsplatserna, och att man bör vara medveten om detta när man ska utforma en muslimsk begravnings¬plats. Uppsatsen gör en dokumentation av de muslimska begravningsplatserna på främst Östra kyrkogården i Malmö. I en undersökande jämförelse över hur gravplatserna ser ut nu samt hur de sett ut tidigare kan man konstatera att det har skett en förändring av gravarnas utformning, där de från 1980-talet är enkla och avskalade medan gravarna från 2000-talet har en stor variation av både gravstenar och dekoration på gravarna. Muslimernas begravningstraditioner säger bland annat att det från ett dödsfall endast får ta 24 timmar innan den avlidne begravs, att kroppen inte får kremeras samt att begravning ska ske utan kista och att den döde ska vara placerad i graven så att ansiktet är vänt mot Mecka.

Utifrån en genomgång av den religionshistoriska litteraturen har följande framkommit:? Muhammed framställs som en genomärlig person som trodde starkt på sina andliga och religiösa upplevelser. Han var samtidigt bekant med de religiösa och politiska omständigheter som rådde i dåtidens Arabien. I staden Medina märks mer hans politiska egenskaper och han lyckas med sin skicklighet bilda ett nytt samhälle och åstadkomma en stor förändring i stora delen av Arabien under sina levnadsår.? Han beskrivs både som en religiös och politisk person.

This study focuses on why people not longer want to be a part of a religious communion they have earlier been a part of. To examine this I have made seven interviews with people who have left their previous communions. Together with the methodological and theoretical discussions on discourse analysis, Richard Jenkins discussions on identity and theories concerning the post-modern society, I have made an analysis on how these people consider their previous communions and its members. They refer i.e. to the social control, the ?closed? culture and the non-questioning-culture that constitute the communions and its techniques.

How do men who define themselves as feminists create and maintain an identity as men? In this qualitative study four men involved in feminist organizations were interviewed about their views on women, men, sex and feminism. Theories of language, psychoanalysis and ethics were utilized to further our understanding of the material these men produce in their effort to define themselves. Our object of study is the text, which we believe holds the key to understanding how an individual shapes his world and himself. The result is our interpretation of the text and its underlying mechanics.
