The annual cost of home care services of transport in Falun/Borlänge, is now at 31 million kronor. It is clear from previous research that it is possible to reduce these costs through a restructuring of the existing home-help service. The restructuring aims to have a higher proportion of older people, who are in need of care, to live in special accommodation, in order to reduce transport costs. Therefore there is a need for systems that allow home-help service to plan their operations in such a way that transport is working as efficiently as possible. Through better planning, there are profits to be done.

This study sets out to investigate how the roll of the teacher is constructed in the Swedish Teachers? Unions trade publication. Based on the theory of social constructionism we have used the method of critical discourse analysis to establish dominant trends and patterns in how the roll of teacher is constructed in editorials in Swedish Lärarnas Tidning. We have established that the conflict between a modernist school tradition and a postmodern society has resulted in a dominant, traditional teacher discourse which is being simultaneously challenged by both a market-orientated discourse and a professionalization discourse. Furthermore, we attempt to highlight how these ?ideal? constructions can create problems in terms of identity construction for teachers.

I och med den ökade konkurrensen och den strukturomvandling som idag råder på marknaden söker detaljhandelsföretag ständigt medel för att effektivisera och förbättra sin verksamhet och dess lönsamhet. Ett sätt som flera forskare anser vara det optimala verktyget för att höja sin lönsamhet på, är att ge kunderna en bättre service och på så sätt även skapa sig lojala och trogna kunder. En forskare som gör anspråk på detta och som även har skapat en modell av detta fenomen är Mark Stevens (2002). Denna modell utgår från att en motiverad och tillfredställd personal ger kunderna en bättre service och den förbättrade servicen ger i sin tur fler nöjda och lojala kunder. Lojala kunder skall enligt service-vinst-kedjan även till sist generera en högre lönsamhet och tillväxt.
