At the Women?s House in Örebro, a children?s project has started where the work method ?Oasen? [Oasis] model has been developed by two children?s educationists. The aim of this study is, with the ?Oasen? model as a starting point, to deepen the knowledge of (1) how to meet children?s central needs while staying at a Women?s House and (2) what the ?Oasen? model may contribute to the children. The theoretical framework consists of a cognitive approach to the progress of children experiencing domestic violence and a presentation of conceptions concerning children?s needs.

For one month during the beginning of 2011, the world followed the violent events in Libya. During this time the United Nations was faced with a complex question, could they handle the ongoing violence and find a solution to the killings or would the hostile situation go on. We now know what happened, but not why. It is this question that this essay aims to answer. This essay covers the discussion of sovereignty on the one hand and humanitarian intervention on the other and responsibility to protect in between.

Sambandet mellan våld mot djur och våld i nära relationer är väl dokumenterat. Forskning har visat att en person som misshandlar sin partner kan använda djuren i hemmet som ett medel för att skrämma, kontrollera, hämnas och utsätta sin partner för tvång. Det kan ske genom hot att skada eller döda djuret och faktiska handlingar där personen ifråga gör det. Våld mot djur är också förknippat med eskalerande våld. Studier tyder på att djurens utsatthet gör det svårare för den våldsutsatta partnern att lämna förhållandet, då hen är orolig för vad som ska hända med djuret.

Bakgrund: En bra relation motverkar ångest och depression medan en dålig relation är sämre för den psykiska hälsan än att vara singel. Bra kärleksrelationer består av komponenter som exempelvis nöjdhet, intimitet, kärlek och engagemang. Nöjdhet predicerar dessutom nöjdhet senare i relationen. Kärlek belyses utifrån definitionerna romantisk kärlek, kamratlig kärlek, vuxen anknytningskärlek och medkännande kärlek. Medkännande kärlek innefattar ömhet, omsorg, förståelse, vård, stöttning och hjälpsamhet.

In using a qualitative method have I interviewed six women and six men taking care of their wives respectively husbands suffering from physical disease, disfunction or demental disease. The purpose was to find out whether male and female caretakers were differently influenced in their situation, relationship and in their partners, when they became caretakers of their spouse, depending on what the partner suffered from.The results showed that, when a husband or wife was hit by disease or disfunction, the caretaker was influenced both in the partners situation, the relationship and the role towards the partner. The couple still lived in a close relationship and could communicate. For the carers spouse suffered from a demental disease, there was no communication as before or possibility to remember. The carers also felt the loss of community, nearness and sympathy.

During 2004 to 2008, The United States Marine Corps (USMC) executed counterinsurgency operations in Anbar Province with the purpose to stabilize one of the most violent areas in Iraq. The Marine Corps successfully managed to suppress the insurgency as violence dropped dramatically in late 2007. What did the marines do in order to suppress the insurgency? Why did violence drop in the province? The Marine Corps approach and procedures have been examined earlier through theories of organizational learning and adaptation. However, there is an absence of studies aiming to analyse the Marine Corps? counterinsurgency approach through the analytical lens of counterinsurgency theory.

So called honour based violence is a present problem in Sweden. Although recently there has been a steadily growing political and academic awareness around so called honour based violence, there are still problems in the face to face meeting with the victims. This dissertation contributes to the understanding of these victims. The empirical material is based on five young women's stories about growing up in a context of 'honour' and their experiences from breaking up from this context.  My ambition is letting these stories be heard and told as to lead to an increasing understanding of how these women experience themselves and their surrounding society. The purpose of this dissertation is to illustrate how young women interpret their self in the light of a separation from their families.

This thesis focuses on information seeking and use by volunteers and employees in women?s organisations helping women who have been subject to violence. These organisations for example provide help and support, legal assistance and temporary shelter. Semi-structured interviews were carried out with five women working in Terrafem, which is a women?s organisation directed towards women with a non-Swedish background.

Den tekniska utvecklingen har lett till ett ökat informationsflöde. Telia är ett företag som de flesta associerar med just kommunikation och flöden av information. Telia kanal Partner är den del av Teliakoncernen som är ansvarig för företagskunder. Volymen post som kommer till kanal Partner och därefter delas ut till medarbetarna har minskat de senaste åren eftersom allt mer av den post som tidigare kom via Posten nu kommer via e-post och andra digitala överföringsverktyg. Kostnaden för att sortera och dela ut posten är densamma vilket har lett till att kostnaden per försändelse ökat.

Purpose/aim: The purpose is to get increased knowledge about how the communication had developed from the first contact online to the first meeting in real life and even after when it had turned into a real relationship. I also wanted to know why the eight women I interviewed experienced that the Internet is a good venue to meet and develop a real relationship at and if there existed any differences between those four women who were a bit older and those four women who were young.Material/method: When the purpose with this survey stood clear I decided to use interviews as the method to find out more about my subject. I decided to do eight interviews and I contacted eight women who all found their partners online that were willing to help me and answer my interview questions. I did six of the total eight interviews through MSN Messenger and the other two through the telephone.Main results: I found out that three of the older women had used e-mail and telephone and sometimes SMS communication to find out more about their soon to be partner and after that decided to meet the other person in real life. One of the older women and all four of the younger ones had used a Community and Instant Messenger to communicate with their soon to be partner, they also used the telephone and SMS to communicate with each other but Instant Messenger was the medium that dominated in their wish to communicate.
