What is an economic crime? Who is an economic criminal? How do we speak of the phenomenon and what does they way we speak mean?

This study attempts to answer the question of whether the propaganda of the Swedish political parties ?Socialdemokraterna?, and/or ?Sverigedemokraterna?, used for the election to the European parliament 2009, are to be viewed as populistic. Furthermore, is the propaganda to viewed as included in the ?Classical populism?, the ?New populism?, both, or none of the above genres?

For each of the two genres of populism an ideal type is set up, which is used to define their core elements.

Under hela utbildningens gång har jag frågat mig varför studie- och yrkesvägledar programmet är så skolfokuserat och jag har förstått att så har det alltid varit. Men varför har det fortsatt att vara så när arbetsmarknaden kontinuerligt förändras. Genom åren har det öppnats andra möjligheter där vi kan utnyttja vår utbildning och det vi lärt oss på ett mycket bra sätt. Mitt syfte med detta examensarbete är att på ett så bra och realistiskt sätt som möjligt utreda hur arbetsmarknaden för studie- och yrkesvägledare ser ut inom bemanningsbranschen. Dessutom få fram på ett så tydligt sätt som möjligt hur personalen inom ett bemanningsföretag är profilerad.

Självskadebeteende är ett stort hälsoproblem i Sverige och resten av världen, framförallt bland unga kvinnor (Socialstyrelsen, 2004a). Studier (Gollust, Eisenberg & Golberstein, 2008;Bjärehed & Lundh, 2008; Lloyd-Richardson, Perrine, Dierker & Kelley, 2007) visar att flickor och unga kvinnor aktivt skadar sig själva men att få av de drabbade söker vård för sina besvär. Patienter som skadar sig själva upplever att vårdpersonal har svårt att förstå deras situation (Craigen & Foster, 2009) samtidigt som vårdpersonal känner sig negativt inställda till att vårda patienter med självskadebeteende (Friedman et al. 2006). Det finns en frustration i vården bland både personal och patienter men endast lite evidensbaserad forskning kring området.
