Den här uppsatsen har till syfte att undersöka den dagliga medieanvändning som finns hos första generationens invandrarungdomar från Kurdistan, samt ta reda på om de som elever i skolan har varit med om att lärare tagit upp nyheter rörande deras hemländer i den allmänna undervisningen. Om vi ser det hela med elevernas ögon tror vi att de kommer att uppleva att undervisningen blir mer relevant för dem om också nyheter från deras hemländer diskuteras i klassrummet. Extra fokus har lagts på om medier från hemländerna ingår i medieanvändningen. Studien bygger på en explorativ fallstudie med semistrukturerade intervjuer tillsammans med tre manliga och tre kvinnliga elever med kurdisk bakgrund i åldrarna 16-18 år på Tingvallagymnasiet i Karlstad.Det är relevant att undersöka medievanorna hos unga invandrare i Sverige eftersom det inte finns speciellt många studier gjorda som har fokuserat på just den här frågan. Som blivande medielärare anser vi också att det är viktigt att ha kännedom om invandrares medievanor eftersom vi då bättre kan planera våra lektioner med en mer multikulturell inriktning.</p><p> </p><p>Resultaten visar att ungdomarna har ett intresse av att hålla sig uppdaterade dels om händelser i Sverige, men även i deras hemländer och i övriga världen.

Syftet med denna litteraturöversikt var att granska sällskapsdjurs inverkan på dementa personer boende på äldreboende hälsa och välbefinnande. Många människor har demenssjukdom, ca 140 000 personer i Sverige lever med demens varav ungefär hälften bor på äldreboende. Personer med demenssjukdom får ofta kognitiva nedsättningar och svårighet med att klara dagliga aktiviteter. Redan under 1700-talet började användningen av sällskapsdjur generellt inom vården. Detta har utvecklats genom åren och idag har ett 20-tal kommuner i Sverige börjat använda sig av bland annat hundar i vårdande syfte inom äldrevården.

Italy is the third largest market in Europe with a population of almost 58 million. The country is the tenth most important market for Swedish sales. Italy has a fairly good economy at the moment and the forecast tells of an increasing strength during coming years. Despite all of this, Sweden is exporting a fairly small amount of wood to Italy. Only around 2,3 % of all Sweden?s wood export goes to Italy.

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka den samiska kvinnans roll i samisk kultur under 1600-1700-talen och den samiska kvinnans roll idag. För att kunna uppnå vårt syfte har vi som metod genomfört litteraturstudier av tidigare forskning, litterära texter, artiklar, och elektroniska källor. Resultatet visar på både kontinuitet och förändring. En av kvinnans viktigaste roller i den traditionella kulturen och religionen var som utövare av jojken. Det var vanligt att kvinnan jojkade i allmänhet, men även i vissa rituella sammanhang.

Background:In Sweden and Northern Europe, cardiovascular disease mortality rates are high. The clinical picture in the Western world is dominated by lifestyle diseases in which individual behavior and attitudes have a significant impact on the health effect. In the society cardiovascular disease is seen as an illness factor and contribution to disability. Conditions for a good life are not only good health also factors such as intimate relationships and meaningful work which affect the person's quality of life.Aim:Lifestyle changes and quality of life for patients, regarding cardiovascular disease.Method:A literature review was made. Eight articles, quantitative and qualitative were analyzed.

Detta arbete har två syften. Det ena syftet är att beskriva virkningens utveckling i Sverige från de först kända föremålen fram till 1900-talets början. Det andra syftet är att initiera forskning inom den textila tekniken virkning. Med utgångspunkt i dessa syften har jag arbetat utifrån följande problemformuleringar. När har tekniken virkning börjat användas och hur kan den ha uppstått? Hur har virkningen utvecklats? Vilka termer har använts för att beskriva tekniken? Hur har virkningen varit ansedd under den undersökta perioden? Min ansats har varit hermeneutisk och arbetet är utfört i form av en kvalitativ och deskriptiv litteraturstudie.

Since the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) was adopted in 1979 there has been evident progress in the area of women's rights in great parts of the world, although this progress is still foremost concentrated to the Westernhemisphere. In Argentina, the work with gender equality and women's rights set of strongly during the last decade. The country has ratified the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination against Women and the Inter-American Convention on the Prevention, Punishmentand Eradication of Violence against Women "Convention of Belem Do Para" but still women and girls are victims of structural discrimination and serious impunity of their rights on a daily basis.The current situation proves that the positive changes within the context of international and national law do not necessary reach out to the population to the same extent. In the light of the lacking popular involvement and knowledge of their rights, a different type of solution is desirable. Therefore it would be of interest to examinate the role of Non Governmental Organisations (NGO:s) when it comes to implementing human rights in the society and ?the every day life?.

In Lake Vänern, Sweden, there is an endemic population of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) that lives its entire life in fresh water. The salmon is hindered from migrating to its natural spawning sites in the northern part of the River Klarälven by nine hydro-electric power plants. None of the hydro-electric power plants have fishways so that salmon migrating upstream or downstream may pass. In the current situation, the upward migrating salmon are caught in a fish trap at the most downstream located power plant in Forshaga. From there, the salmon are driven in a truck, past eight power plants and released a few kilometers upstream of the eighth power plant at Edsforsen.

The area of Järvafältet in the northern parts of Stockholm is one of the many large-scale investments into Swedish residency executed in the 60?s and 70?s, and which got the name Miljonprogrammet. Not until today these buildings have been restored, and frustration has been brewing in these areas for some time. Järvadialogen is the name of a communication program connected to the housing restoration in the area of Husby, which is a part of Järvafältet, and functions as a promotional and informational dialogue between residents in the area and those responsible for the communication program. The cultural diversity in the area of Husby is significant, and with theories on intercultural communication, change communication and power we study the performed communicative process and the manner in which it is received.

Ship formed monuments from the Late Bronze Age on the island of O?land, southeast Sweden, have never been thoroughly dealt with in previous research, despite the fact that the region is suggested to have had a key-role in maritime trade networks. This thesis aims to address the ship formed monuments on O?land in relationship to the monuments in northern Sma?land and the island of Gotland. My goal is to discuss how the ship symbolism was practised during the Late Bronze Age in Scandinavia from a new perspective.

Climate on earth is getting warmer, which effects earth?s energy balance and so forth the ocean and atmospheric circulation.  In many sub-polar regions on the northern hemisphere changes due to warming of the climate can be observed. Some examples that already have been observed are shifts in tree line, towards higher altitudes and latitudes, increased ablation of Swedish glaciers and melting of the permafrost on the Siberian tundra. In Sweden climate change scenarios tell us that it will become warmer and that a higher amount of precipitation in form of rain will be an effect from this. To study climate changes in Sweden, transition zones are useful in order to observe changes in distribution of species and animal populations.

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.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the economic effects of different fertilization programs both on stand- and forest-level. The study is applied on an objective sample of inventory data for a forest area in Kalix in northern Sweden. The forest area belongs to the forest company Sveaskog. The study includes different economic models and will be used as a support when the company decides how to invest and how much to invest in fertilization. The study investigates the economy of five different fertilization policies. For each program the rate of interest invested in fertilization and the cost for the extra produced volume has been calculated.

I denna uppsats har jag velat kartlägga gårdsansvarets mönster i byn Storhaga i Ljusdals socken, Hälsingland under åren 1722 ? 1771 med frågeställningarna: hur länge var en bonde gårdsansvarig? Hur skedde ansvarsväxlingen ? till vem och vid vilket tillfälle - det vill säga då den gårdsansvarige dog, lämnade över till arvtagare eller sålde till utomstående, eller av någon annan orsak? Att säga hur länge en bonde i Storhaga under 1700-talet var gårdsansvarig var ganska enkelt. I sex av de sjutton undersökta gårdarna, nästan en tredjedel, var bönderna gårdsansvariga väldigt länge för där hann det bara ske en enda ansvarsväxling på de femtio aktuella åren. Den som har rekordet är Jon Larsson i Storhaga 14 som hade gårdsansvaret i hela 37 år, och kanske mer eftersom han står som bonde i det inledande året 1722. Jag vet inte hur länge han varit ansvarig dessförinnan.
