Male violence against women in close relations has in recent years received increased attention, however, only identified as a problem in approximately 40 years. It is now a social problem that is constantly increasing, but the identification of the phenomenon has been possible thanks to the research on the subject. The purpose of this study is to, from a woman's own story, identify psychological processes in connection with the assault. The aim is also to confirm previous research on the phases of the abused go through until decampment and identify possible consequences of violence against women. I also aim to answer the question regarding the assistance of individuals in extreme situations while getting back to society.

An analysis of a specific application of anaerobic wastewater treatment at a pulp and board mill, Stora Enso Skoghall, was carried out. A literature study was done and effluent wastewater from CTMP pulp production was analyzed. The analysis consisted of a broad constituent analysis and an anaerobic treatment trial. Results from these test where used to calculate the treatment effectiveness and resulting energy potential at the mill.The literature study and constituent analysis showed that toxicity of the water to be treated, due to wood extractives and sulphur content, was of concern. Detoxification chemicals targeting these constituents where used in the anaerobic treatment trial.

The Oresund Region, consisting of the Swedish county of Scania and the Danish islands of Sealand, Lolland, Falster and Bornholm, is widely recognised as a successful example of European cross-border co-operation. The purpose of this region building project is to form a cross-border fully integrated functional region in order to accomplish a high level of economic growth and employment.This thesis argues, by the means of discourse analysis, that the project can be viewed as a kind of post-politics, defined as a politics that under a neoliberal hegemonic consensus strives to manipulate citizens (and to redefine them as consumers and investors) into better economic performance.This manipulation is carried out by extensive discourse production aimed at convincing people that the Oresund Region exists, that it is a successful region, and that the people who inhabit it are also successful. The deliberate vagueness and contradictory character of the Oresund discourse is investigated and explained as a discursive strategy to incorporate as many views and desires as possible..

The aim of this research paper was to examine the help required by refugee children with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). In addition to this, we also examined the help the refugee children are currently receiving. We have examined this from the perspective of the theory of the ecology of human development. The method we used was qualitative and we conducted eleven profound interviews with professionals working with the target group in question. The essential questions were; which needs, according to the professionals, do refugee children with PTSD have, what characterises the professional's work to help the children and what possibilities and obstacles there are in giving the children optimal help.The results strongly conclude that it is important for the children's development to have at least one supportive adult in their surrounding, a positive experience at school and during leisure activities.

Syftet med undersökningen är att kartlägga samförståndet mellan lärare och elever, vad gäller det praktiska arbetet i den naturvetenskapliga undervisningen. Vi har med hjälp av enkäter till lärare och elever genomfört en kvantitativ undersökning. Resultatet av denna visar att det i samtliga klasser i liten utsträckning diskuteras varför man genomför en praktisk uppgift. Detta till trots att tre av fyra lärare hävdar att praktiskt arbete är viktigt för elevernas lärande, vilket även eleverna tycker. Vidare visar resultatet att det ofta förekommer en genomgång före det praktiska arbetet, s.k.

Umeå Universitet är en av Umeås största arbetsgivare med 4200 anställda. Sjuktalen totalt för Universitetet har varit och är fortfarande låga, runt tre procent. Den äldsta åldersklass har dom högsta sjuktalen, med stöd av den informationen beslutades om satsningar på äldre arbetstagare. Universitetshälsan (fhv) fick i uppdrag att erbjuda hälsokontroller, under tre år, till alla anställda som fyller 55 år.Vid hälsokontrollen mättes den upplevda arbetsförmågan med arbetsförmåge index (AFM-index) För att bedöma arbetsförmågan hos undersökta 55-åringar i relation till övriga åldersklasser vid universitetet skickades enkäter med post till tjugofem män och kvinnorfödda ?46, -56 samt ?61.Resultatet av undersökningen visade att upplevda arbetsförmågan låg högre för alla åldersklasser hos båda könen jämfört med den referens som AFM manualen innehåller för jämförbara yrken.

The northern province of Sweden has in both literature and film been depictured as something foreign and mythical, unlike the rest of the country. It has been my purpose to show in this essay that the systematic categorization of Norrland and its literature reveals multiple criteria known to define the colonial era. By reading the novel Stallo by author Stefan Spjut with postcolonial structures in mind I aim to show how the author uses Swedish mythology and through the presence of The Other criticizes colonial structures in place to this day. By examining the gothic atmosphere I intend to indicate how the trolls in the novel figures as both a horror element as well as a representation of nature itself. It is my belief that the author by further reinforcing the mythological in relation to Norrland addresses the problem at hand.

In the following essay I have read the drama Natten är dagens mor (The Night is the Day's Mother) by Lars Norén. My main focus has been on the older brother Georg. By using post structuralist gender theories I have sought answers to the following two questions: How is Georg's masculinity constructed and maintained, when seen from a gender perspective? What power structures arise between Georg's and the other men's masculinities? In my analysis I have approached Georg via three perspectives. First, I have by the help of Judith Butler's theory concerning gender performative actions tried to define the men's gender codes.

Rapporten behandlar hur interaktiva webbtjänster påverkar kundrelationen. Undersökningen omfattar en fallstudie på FCC Software samt intervjuer med tre av företagets kunder. Företagets befintliga tjänster har legat till grund för undersökningen. Då befintlig litteratur anser att företag inte använder den interaktiva potential som Internet ger har undersökningen fokuserat på hur de interaktiva tjänster som företaget tillhandahållet uppfattats hos kunderna. Undersökningen har genomförts med ett perspektiv som omfattat företag och kund för att se vilka likheter och skillnader som fanns mellan de båda parterna i avseende på hur tjänsterna påverkar kundrelationen.

The Swedish government ratified on May 1 2009 an amendment of marital law, resulting in same-sex marriage becoming legalized. With the rights of the Christian Swedish state church to officiate weddings originating from the same law, the church was thereby faced with two options: Either officially include same-sex couples in the Christian concept of holy matrimony and keep the right to officiate weddings; or give up the right to officiate weddings altogether. An official decision to accept the terms was reached on October 22 2009, but not without being preceded by an agitated medial debate.This research attempts to analyze the arguments of the debate in three stages: In the first stage the arguments are categorized according to their respective ideological standpoint. In the second stage these categories are examined from post-modern, social constructivist and socialization theory perspectives. Based on this, the third stage sees the arguments analyzed from a viewpoint based in the Copenhagen school concept of securization.The research concludes that the debate does not only simply feature two sides with differences of opinion; but rather that the arguments of the two opposing sides are founded in a common view of the other side as a fundamental threat to ones conception of a sound society..
