The purpose of this study is to highlight how Swedish primary school teachers teach of and about democracy and based on this then compare with how the primary school teachers in South Africa teaches of and about democracy. This comparison will then highlight what can be developed in the teaching of and about democracy in Swedish schools. The method used in this study is mind maps because it gives a greater depth in the way teachers look at teaching democracy. The result of this comparison is that South Africa's history pervades the entire democracy education in school but both Sweden and South Africa use methods as dialogue and discussion in teaching of and about democracy. Furthermore, the community, curriculum, teacher and cooperation with other teachers also have an influence on how democracy's teaching looks like in schools.

Ohälsan i arbetslivet är fortsatt hög och många arbetslivsforskare påvisar i detta avseende att individens möjlighet att påverka sin arbetssituation kan vara avgörande för hennes arbetsrelaterade hälsa. Forskning av detta slag har resulterat i att delegering och inflytande har blivit honnörsord i arbetslivssammanhang och i många verksamheter tillhandahålls därför den enskilda individen ett stort handlings- och kontrollutrymme. I många organisationer, där kraven på varje enskild individ är desamma och där de tillhandahålls ett lika stort handlings- och kontrollutrymme är det dock inte ovanligt att vissa utvecklar arbetsrelaterad ohälsa, medan andra känner stor arbetstillfredsställelse och utvecklas i sitt arbete.Med utgångspunkt i ovanstående syftar denna studie till att belysa hur en individs erfarenhetsbaserade kompetens har betydelse för hennes subjektiva handlings- och kontrollutrymme och således även för hennes arbetsrelaterade välbefinnande och hälsa. Studien har en kvalitativ ansats och resultatet av de ostrukturerade intervjuer som genomförts visar hur en individ med gedigen erfarenhetsbaserad kompetens har förmåga att identifiera, nyttja och till och med överskrida det handlings- och kontrollutrymme som tillhandahålls, vilket tycks främja hennes arbetsrelaterade välbefinnande och hälsa. Studien exemplifierar även hur en individ som är mindre förtrogen med verksamheten inte har samma förmåga i detta avseende och hur hon i vissa situationer istället upplever olust och viss psykisk stress.

The Employment Protection Act (1982:80; LAS) is one of the cornerstones of the labour law that regulates the relationship between employer and employee. The central rule as stated in 4 § LAS is valid for an indefinite term. LAS is a semi-optional law in accordance with 2 § LAS which facilitates deviation from the central rule.Temporary employment is dealt with in 5 and 6 §§ LAS, regulations and collective bargaining agreements. The purpose of the legislative change on July 12007 was to simplify the use of temporary employment and to make the law more predictable and easier to interpret. The previous law was unnecessarily difficult for the employer to know when to put into practice.
