The potential of information technology as a means to invigorate democratic practise is constantly under discussion. Regardless of the differing opinions as to the most suitable way to utilise IT, there are certain democratic core values that have to be considered. One of these is freedom of information, defined by us as the right of every citizen to seek, obtain and express information. The aim of this study is to explore whether the use of IT as a means to enhance democracy can strengthen the citizens right to freedom of information. As an instrument for analysis we use an article by Jan van Dijk, professor of communication science.

This study aims to investigate how, in Montesquieu?s Persian Letters (1721), religion and religious structures are presented to influence women?s position in French society.In Persian Letters Montesquieu presents a dogmatic religious life, which proceed from a literal interpretation of the bible.

The religious life depicted is also distinguished by a non-genuine religious conviction and by acts which take on a simulation form.

Uttalad förlossningsrädsla finns i dag hos ca 20 % av gravida kvinnor I Sverige. Det är naturligt att kvinnor känner viss rädsla inför en förlossning men vid uttalad förlossningsrädsla är det en svårare grad av rädsla som kan härledas både till upplevelser före, under och efter förlossningen. Över hela Sverige finns så kallade Aurora mottagning där kvinnor behandlas specifikt för sin förlossningsrädsla. Barnmorskor har en central roll vid förlossningen för att inte orsaka kvinnorna lidande i vårdmötet. Inom vårdvetenskaplig litteratur saknas studier där barnmorskans upplevelser av att vårda och praktiskt handhavande av en förlossningsrädd kvinna under förlossningen studerats.
