Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka stadsplaneringvid tre tidsepoker. Genom att jämföra mellanrummen i stadenoch sedan plocka ut de positiva inslag som vi tror tilltalar deflesta människorna vill vi komma fram till hur en idealstad skullekunna se ut.De tidsepoker vi valt är Kvartersstaden, Funktionalismens stadoch Dagens byggande. För att kunna bygga framtidens städermåste man titta tillbaka och ta till vara på det som fungerat ochlära sig av sina misstag. Från den korrekta kvartersstaden via detstorskaliga funktionalistiska samhället till dagens förtätningarfinns det tydliga likheter såväl som olikheter. Grönskan har storbetydelse för en stad och dess invånare.

The purpose of this study was to investigate, through a qualitative survey, the need of knowledge and strategy in organisations today and tomorrow. The empirical investigation is built on a semi structured interview that was conducted on nine different companies in Gislaveds community. The companies were from three different branches namely: tree, metal and polymer. Three interviews were conducted in each branch.The result from the interviews showed that the globalisation had put the companies under hard competition which had made the need for rationalisation and effectivness more apparent. Having said this, the demands on the organisation and the individuals within it will constantly increase.

A qualitative approach was used in this study to increase the understanding of the employee´s experience of psychosocial work environment and leaders role affecting it. Eight semi structured interviews were carried out at two organizations with four interviews in each place. The data was transcribed and a meaning concentration analysis was conducted.

Using a qualitative research method to get the empiricism for analysis, we have analyzed advisors and job seekers experience of management meetings at the job center in Halmstad. We used a semi-structured interview form when we collected the empiricism from four advisors, four job seekers and one complementary actor in the form of a job coach, with a hermeneutic approach to interpreting the informants? subjective experience. We also chose to analyze our results using theories by Asplund, Von Wright, Mead, Scheff, Barth and MalténsThe results presented have shown that time is what they all described as lacking. It was found that the job seekers had a reasonable degree of common experience in both the management meetings and the working role of the advisors, while the advisors themselves were divided on how their role would be applied.

Begreppet etisk stress syftar till att beskrivakonflikten som uppstår när en person på grund av organisatoriska hinderupplever sig oförmögen att handla utifrån sin moral. I denna studieundersöks hur tolv primärvårdspsykologer beskriver sina upplevelser avetisk stress, i vilka situationer den uppkommer och hur de hanterar dessa. Urde semi-strukturerade intervjuerna framkom att de tillfrågade upplevde etiskstress i relation till ett flertal olika situationer varav många härrörde frånresursbrist och oklara riktlinjer. En utökad patientgrupp, brist påvidareutbildning, standardiserade interventioner och begränsadebehandlingstider var exempel på orsaker till dess uppkomst. Psykologernahanterade detta genom att bland annat gå emot riktlinjer, föra fram sin åsiktsamt att inta ett öppet förhållningssätt gentemot patienten kring de rådandebegränsningarna..

This final thesis is carried out at BAE Systems Hägglunds in Örnsköldsvik. The mission was to construct and integrate a new semi-active damping unit in the terrain vehicle BvS10. Questions that came up during the process, among others, was how to mount the damping unit to the vehicle in a flexible way without exposing it to unnecessary wears.A generation of the concept is made in 3D using CATIA V5 of a possible solution to the problem. The idea is to weld the unit to the skid girder which is one of the main constructions of the track system. In this way the damping unit will come closer to the track system, which will partly protect it from impacts from below and minimize current problems with breaking forces in the torsion shafts.The complete construction was then analyzed, first by theoretical calculations and then with the FEM-tools in CATIA V5.

The intention is to focus on the implementation of the tablet in preschools and how the intentions around the introduction of the tablet take shape in different preschools. The method is semi structured interviews where the respondents consist of 3 preschool directors and 6 teachers where the preschool directors work. This is a relevant subject to illustrate, as the tablet has become a tool in preschool where it seems to be different opinions about how it should be used. This study aims to understand how the implementation can take form in different preschools, what kind of similarities and differences we can see with the intentions of the tablet and if there is need of clarification on the workings of the tablets in preschools. The results show that the intentions around the introduction of the tablet in preschool look different in the preschools, and the implementation of this new technology starts in a small scale with help of photographing and videotaping.

Den här kandidatuppsatsen bygger på litteraturstudier och behandlar begreppet planideal ur ett historiskt så väl som samtida perspektiv. Uppsatsens fokus ligger på diskussion kring vad dagens planideal skulle kunna vara, där hållbarhet är ett centralt begrepp. Ekologisk, ekonomisk och social hållbarhet har sedan Brundtlandrapporten 1987 lyfts fram som viktiga värden och har sedan dess påverkat dagens stadsplanering. För att få förståelse för vad för tidigare samhällsförändringar som ligger till grund för olika planideal ges en kortfattad historisk redogörelse för 1900-talets ideal för stadens fysiska form. I uppsatsens första del ges en historisk redogörelse för vilka planideal som dominerat i Sverige under 1900-talet och vad som föranlett dem.

The purpose of this study was to investigate hove some suburban areas image is shown to the public in the media coverage of suburban areas, and this is why I in this paper want to look more closely at the image of Tensta in the news media and how people in Tensta perceive themselves. News media has a very important role in the creation of human worldview. It influences our own identity and affects what a person believes is the difference in us and them. In the post-colonial theory, identity creation is a central role in philosophy, us and them. Based on the above purpose, I formulated an overall main question that this essay should answer.

Since the 1980's economic policies has become an important issue in municipalities and more resources are put into projects that are intended to have a positive influence on the local economic growth. From a theoretical perspective of regime theory and a model of local political economy, concerning the strategies chosen by the actors involved designed by Jon Pierre, the discussion points to the fact that it is possible to affect the local development. The municipalities discussed and compared in this thesis, Bromölla and Östra Göinge, have similar prerequisite for growth mainly due to their dependence to large industrial companies.In order to fulfill the aim of the thesis and examine the change in economic policies over time and between the two municipalities a comparative method is used. The creation of local governing coalitions is emphasized which makes efforts and intentions of individual actors crucial for the success of the local economic policies. Bromölla started their more active efforts in the area of economic policies earlier than Östra Göinge and has also come a bit further in the process.
