Efter den 11 september 2001 förändrades vårt sätt att se på världen.Terrorattackerna mot USA:s symboler för ekonomi och försvar och efterföljande krig mot terrorismen gav upphov till allvarliga brott mot Genèvekonventionen.Avslöjandena om tortyr i fånglägren Abu Ghraib och Guantanamo Bay drev debatten om mänskliga rättigheter kontra nationell säkerhet i en tid av osäkerhet till sin spets. Framstående akademiker i USA menar trots de internationella fördömandena att tortyr är ett legitimt medel i kriget mot terrorismen om det kan leda till information som förhindrar framtida terrorattacker.Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka om det finns grund för ett rättfärdigande av tortyr och andra typer av brott mot mänskliga rättigheter. För att uppnå mittsyfte användes följande frågor:1.) Kan man rättfärdiga kränkningar av mänskliga rättigheter som ett instrument i kriget mot terrorismen? Kan tortyr i detta fall rättfärdigas?2.) Hur resonerar man i USA kring tortyr som instrument i kriget mot terrorismen? Bör det tillåtas i syfte att bevara den nationella säkerheten?Valet av teori föll på realismen då den behandlar de internationella relationerna och staternas ständiga kamp om överlevnad och makt. Ur det realistiska perspektivet kan brott mot mänskliga rättigheter och då även tortyr rättfärdigas bl.a.

This study was conducted in the Master program at The Music Pedagogical Center (MPC) at The Royal College of Music in Stockholm. Korta musikresor (Short Music Journeys) is the Swedish term used for a receptive method of music therapy adapted from the tradition of The Bonny Method of Guided Imagery and Music (BMGIM) and the theory and practice of Expressive Arts Therapy. The KMR method uses carefully selected short pieces of music, lasting between 2 and 5 minutes, to work on various psychological problems and life- crises. The music session is conducted in a slightly altered state of consciousness with a clear focus being established beforehand in a verbal dialogue with the psychotherapist. There is also the possibility of using artwork to process and explore the imagery after the music listening.

Public WiFi networks is one of the dominant technologies for users to get public internet access. The problem is that the networks are designed for accessability rather than security ? a problem users seldom are aware of. Users who carelessly access WiFi networks may reveal sensitive information which, among other things, can lead to an identity theft. Previous research suggests that users must be educated and informed about the risks they incur, but not how this should be done.

The aim of this study is to describe and examine the characteristics of inclusion of children with disabilities in the kinder garden and primary school in Belarus. The data in this study were collected through interviews with special teachers and staff at the Developing and Rehabilitation center. The interviews were supported by child-observations and a literature study. Staying in boarding schools prevents handicap students from integrating with the society as well as getting social experience. Integrated education demands the combination of two regularities: education of children with normal development and special education of children with psycho-physiological problems.

Objectivity is often emphasized as one of the fundamental principles for the auditing profession and is also a requirement for preserving satisfactory professional practice. The multiple company scandals in the first decade of the 21st century have created distrust for auditors? capability to maintain objectivity. The purpose of this study is to contribute with a new way of thinking when it comes to the factors that affect objectivity. Earlier studies have indicated that personality factors may affect work performance in many different fields and this study is exploring the connection between separate personality factors, and the capability of less experienced auditors to maintain objectivity in the relationship with dominating and demanding clients.Data was collected through a survey that was divided into two separate parts where the first part measured the participant?s score on different personality factors, and the other part measured the participant?s score on perceived objectivity.

Background: The Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority?s mortgage limitation, of mortgaging up to 85 percent of the market value of the real estate was introduced on the first of October 2010. The aim of the recommendation is to prevent a detrimental development of the market for mortgages while at the same time creating incentives for the consumers to limit the debt level. The mortgage limitation is a recently adopted recommendation and few studies have made a thorough analysis of its effects, hence it is an interesting topic to study.Aim: The aim of this study is to analyze the initial effects of the mortgage limitation for consumers, banks and estate agencies. Furthermore, the study aims to evaluate drivers of consumer debt levels and conclude whether the mortgage limitation will result in lower debt levels for consumers.Completion: The study is based on interviews with respondents from banks and with respondents from estate agencies to enlighten the initial and long term effects of the mortgage limitation.

AbstractThe Swedish National Board of Health and Welfare has since a year or so started to introduce a new way to work with childcare investigations within the social services. This new concept, BBIC, is meant to put the child?s needs in the first room rather than the grownup?s as it used to be before. This study is about to examine how BBIC affects the legal security of the children within these childcare investigations.BBIC was first developed in England after a massive criticism against the way that the foster home- and institutional care was handled. In Sweden, BBIC was first tested and developed into Swedish conditions in a few project municipalities for about five years but is now being introduced all over the country.

The report contains a survey on telecommuting in nature and how concepts around that information could look like. The client for the project is Lars Sandberg, Dotank AB in Karlstad. The project is implemented in the course Bachelor of Science in Innovation and Design, MSCG22 of the faculty of health, science and technology at Karlstad University in the spring of 2014.Working flexibly and remotely in the so-called knowledge based professions is growing. That nature is an important source of recovery is a fact. The literature search in this report shows that there are factors that create both physical and psychological stress on most office workers while nature is a source of recovery and inspiration.

This thesis was done after a request from the county?s administrative board of Västmanland to provide the board with a better understanding of how green areas have changed within Västerås municipality over time.The purpose and goal of this study was thus to measure and analyze how much of the green areas within Västerås municipality that have disappeared during the past one hundred years as well as to provide a review of previous studies regarding the importance of green areas for humans as well as the biological diversity.In order to answer these questions I have in this study used a combination of a literature study, cartographic analysis as well as a time series analysis. The computer software used to do the measurements of the green areas was ArcGIS which is a geographical information system.In the cartographic and times series anlaysis measurements and analysis was made of the district map of 1911, the economic map of 1950 and the property map of 2011. The measurements show that the municipality has grown with 46,3 km2 over the last one hundred years. New neighborhoods? have emerged and the municipality has expanded.

Introduktion: Efter en förvärvad hjärnskada kan det inte tas för givet att kroppen upplevs som självklar i vardagslivet. Många har både fysiska och kognitiva funktionsnedsättningar.Syfte: Studiens syfte var att få en fördjupad förståelse för hur personer med förvärvad hjärnskada upplever sin kropp och fysisk aktivitet i det dagliga livet.Metod: Intervjuer genomfördes med 15 strategiskt utvalda personer som hade utretts för förvärvad hjärnskada. De intervjuades vid ett tillfälle 1-5 år efter debuten. Personerna var i yrkesverksam ålder och hade lättare motorisk och/eller lätt/måttlig kognitiv, emotionell eller personlighetsmässig funktionsnedsättning. Intervjuerna transkriberades och analyserades med the Empirical Phenomenological Psychological Method (EPP-metoden).Resultat: Ett övergripande tema och sex huvudteman identifierades.

Titel: Psykologiskt Empowerment: En kognitiv resa genom relationer och arbetskontextFörfattare: Niklas Hansson och Niklas JohanssonHandledare: Pia Ulvenblad och Ingemar WictorNyckelord: Psykologiskt Empowerment, PE, Arbetskontext, RelationerSyfte: Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att öka förståelsen kring psykologiskt empowerment (PE), genom att studera kopplingen till relationer och arbetskontext.Problemformulering: Hur kan uppfattad nivå av PE kopplas till arbetskontext och relationer?Metod: En kvalitativ metod har använts och fyra fallstudier har gjorts på organisationer med varierande branschtillhörighet, vilket gjorts för att maximera skillnaderna mellan fallen. Primärdata kommer från individuella intervjuer, vilka kompletterats med tillhörande frågeformulär och som gjort upplevda nivåer av PE kvantifierbara.Teoretisk referensram: Den teoretiska referensramen utgörs av klassiska PE-teorier tillsammans med beståndsdelarna av konceptet, för att forma basen. Detta kombineras med nyare PE-teorier kopplade till både arbetskontext och relationer, men även kortfattat vilka beteendemässiga utfall som kopplas till PE. Författarna har valt att fokusera mindre på eventuella utfall kopplat till PE, då dessa funnits i tidigare forskning, men inte kan negligeras helt, då det kan tyckas absolut väsentligt att på något sätt ta upp vad som är positivt och negativt kopplat till konceptetSlutsats: Både arbetskontext och relationer tycks kunna kopplas till uppfattad nivå av PE.

The purpose of this study was to examine health promotion and ill-health prevention in the workplaces of the City District Committees in the City of Malmö. More specifically, we wanted to find what types of health problems there were and what kinds of strategies were applied to prevent them. Furthermore, the aim was to examine whether the leaders of the City of Malmö saw any effects of the strategies in use and if so, which. Finally, the intention was to compare our empirical results to previous research in the field of health promotion and ill-health prevention in workplaces.

Bakgrund: Bröstcancer hos män är en ovanlig, ouppmärksammad sjukdom. Mindre än en procent av alla som får bröstcancer är män. Detta gör att männen som drabbas av denna sjukdom inte bara går igenom de motgångar som en cancersjukdom innebär utan även vad det kan innebära att drabbas av en sjukdom som vanligen drabbar kvinnor.Syfte: Att beskriva mäns upplevelse av att leva med bröstcancer.Metod: En litteraturöversikt då nio stycken vetenskapliga originalstudier granskades. Dessa hade kvalitativ, kvantitativ eller mixad metod och hämtades från Cinahl och referenslistor från andra vetenskapliga artiklar. Studierna analyserades genom en indelning av data i olika huvudteman och underteman.Resultat: I resultatet framkom det tre huvudteman i den manliga bröstcancerupplevelsen.
