Arbetslivets internationalisering innebär möjlighet för allt fler att arbeta utomlands under några år av sin yrkeskarriär och medföljandes tillfredsställelse är av stor betydelse för utlandsstationeringens utfall. Syftet med studien är att undersöka och beskriva svenska kvinnors upplevelser av att lämna eget avlönat yrkesarbete i Sverige för att vara medföljande till sin partner i en annan kultur under dennes utlandstjänstgöring i Singapore för en kortare eller längre tid. Studien bygger på en kvalitativ intervjuundersökning med tio svenska kvinnor i Singapore. Av resultaten framkommer stora individuella skillnader i upplevelser. Gemensamt är inledande svårigheter i anpassningen till den nya miljön, att utlandsflytten väcker många tankar och känslor samt att mammor ökar sin tid med barnens aktiviteter.

Our aim with this study is to explore socialworkers perception of what is a good treatment is and how to establish good relationship with their clients. We have decided to limit our study with social workers in Economic assistance and Abuse Units in social servises and explore if we can discern any differences between the units. We have chosen to use qualitative methods to achieve the aim of this study. We interviewed a total of seven social workers, of which three were from Abuse unit and four were from Economic assistance unit. One of the theoretical frame we have used is Goffmans (1970, 1974) theories about social interaction in which he explains the social encounter between social workers and clients.

The aim of the thesis is to highlight external factors to explain why the EMU was created. The external factor considered here is the monetary policy of the United States, which often conflicted with European interests. The statistical data in the thesis, as well as previous research, show that even though the EU economically in many ways had become an equal partner of the US during the second half of the 20th century, the union still faced US influence and dependence.The results of the thesis can be explained with neorealist theories on power measured as an actor's distribution of capabilities and balancing of power. An actor that is equipped with the world's leading currency is more independent from others. Other actors, on the other hand, become increasingly dependent on the major currency and the policy of its owner.
