Over 40 miljon people in the world suffer from hiv/aids today. Africa is the continent that is worst affected by hiv/aids but how is the situation in Sweden? Why is it so quiet concerning hiv/aids in Sweden? Our aim with this work was to find out about the hiv/aids situation in Sweden and particulary in Malmö. The result of our research was that hiv/aids have increased since the year 2000 and most of the people had caught the infection in other countries than Sweden. This raised our curiosity concerning how immigrants/refugees are being treated when they arrive in Malmö and what are being done to stop hiv/aids from spreading further.We became very disappointed when we realised how little that is actually being done and how poorly the collaboration between the institutions are working.

Denna uppsats handlar om en komparativ studie om hur soldater upplevde krig, med fokus påderas egna berättelser, det vill säga hur soldaterna uppfattade sin situation ur ett mycketpersonligt perspektiv. Objekten i denna studie är de amerikanska soldaterna som frivilligtsökte sig till kriget i Vietnam samt de frivilliga svenska soldaterna som under de förstamissionerna åkte till det pågående kriget i Bosnien. Syftet med uppsatsen är därmed attundersöka om de amerikanska och de svenska soldaterna hade liknande eller skildauppfattningar om de svårigheter som förekom genom att verka i en miljö som präglades avdöd, lidande och att hamna i plötsliga, livshotande situationer. Resultaten av undersökningenvisar, trots de olika typerna av konflikter, att det förekom skillnader och även likheter i deberättelser som skildrar synen på mod, rädsla, de inblandade parterna med mera.Undersökningen utgår från gjord forskning av de amerikanska soldaternas brevkorrespondens,vilket personligt och ingående skildrar deras situation. Gällande de svenska soldaternassituation i Bosnien så beskrivs den ur ett antal undersökningar (intervjuer) samt ur tvåbiografier, vilket ligger till grund för en jämförelse i denna undersökning..

I de allra flesta länder regleras redovisningen på ett eller annat sätt. Det finns dock ingenting som visar på vilket sätt som är mest lämpligt när det gäller att framföra en rättvisande bild av en verksamhets ekonomiska situation till dess intressenter. Om en situation är komplex vilket kännetecknas av svårigheter att få en helhetsbild av situationen och osäkerhet råder då situationen är svårhanterlig och riktlinjer, rekommendationer samt praxis saknas kan en rättvisande bild bli svårt att förmedla. Stadsomvandlingen av Kiruna är en komplex situation då främst för att det i Sverige aldrig hanterats en liknande situation men också på grund av att situationen bland annat berör många olika områden. En fallstudie där syfte är att beskriva och analysera utmaningarna inom kommunal redovisning i komplexa situationer genomfördes.

Vi hade en föreställning om att det ibland kan vara svårt att som ledare i en arbetsgrupp skapa tillit samt effektivitet. Detta fångade vårt intresse och gjorde att vi närmare ville studera två arbetsledare och deras respektive arbetsgrupper gällande effektivitet, tillit samt ledarskap. Vårt syfte med undersökningen var att undersöka vilka ledarskapsfaktorer som kan inverka för att stärka tilliten och effektiviteten i en arbetsgrupp. För att besvara syftet med undersökningen togs följande problemformulering fram:Vilka ledarskapsfaktorer kan stärka tilliten och effektiviteten i en arbetsgrupp?Utifrån uppsatsens syfte och problemformulering genomfördes två kvalitativa intervjuer med de två utvalda arbetsledarna, samt att en kvantitativ enkätundersökning genomfördes i de två arbetsledarnas respektive arbetsgrupper.Vårt resultat visar i huvudsak att det är anpassning efter situation och kontext, förmågan att frångå personliga intressen och istället se till det kollektiva intresset, flexibilitet och uppmärksamhet på arbetsgruppens behov och önskemål, samt stöd genom tillgänglighet som är de ledarskapsfaktorer som kan stärka tilliten och effektiviteten i en arbetsgrupp..

Our purpose was to investigate the schools and the social welfare´s experiences of Roman children´s school situation in a Scanian town. We have done a qualitative investigation, interviewing 14 persons from both school and social welfare. Through the interviews we wanted to find the factors which influences the Roman pupils schooling and which efforts the professionals has to their disposition to influence these children´s school situation in a positive direction.The main result of our study is that the majority of the Romans is an isolated group, both in the Swedish school system and in the society. The Romans got access to the Swedish comprehensive school first in 1965, which implies that the Romans have a young school tradition. Most of the Roman pupils have a high absent, which is grounded in a complex of problems.

A politician on the peak of his career suddenly sees himself in the middle of not one or two, but five different crisis, that demand a fitting response and a well planned crisis management strategy. While focusing on ethos and its development, the following paper analyses the communicative strategies used by Germany's ex-minister of defense, Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg. Within his one and a half year tenure he had to handle continuing accusations against policy and character. Guttenberg, who in many eyes was seen as Germany's most popular politician and whose ethos, therefore, prior to the first crisis could be described as strong, is loosing his trustworthiness among the military and other politicians the longer each crisis continues.The purpose of this study is to identify the communicative pattern of Mr. Guttenberg, which in the end lead to his resignation, while his popularity continues to be strong.

Bakgrund: Till följd av den demografiska utvecklingen och avvecklingen av platser i kommunernas äldreboende kommer framtidens vård att till stor del bedrivas i hemmet och utföras av närståendevårdare. Att själv vara gammal och vårda någon annan kan vara både fysiskt och psykiskt tärande och kan påverka både hälsa och livskvalitet. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva livskvalitet, självrapporterad hälsa och social situation hos personer i åldern 60-96 år i Blekinge, som ger stöd/hjälp eller vårdar någon närstående, i jämförelse med män och kvinnor som ej stödjer/ hjälper eller vårdar någon närstående. Metod: Uppgifter togs ur den nationella äldrestudien SNAC - The Swedish National study on Aging and Care. I Blekinge fanns totalt insamlade uppgifter från 1402 personer i åldrarna 60- 96 år och av dessa har vi jämfört 89 närståendevårdare med 89 icke närståendevårdare. Resultat: Utifrån resultatet om självrapporterad hälsa kan tydas att cirka 70 procent av gruppen närståendevårdare, och lika många i gruppen icke närståendevårdare, anser sig ha en god, mycket god eller utmärkt hälsa.

Barns exponering för partnervåld har under de senaste åren blivit identifierat som ett samhällsproblem och tack vore den ständigt ökande forskningen kring ämnet, har kartläggningen av fenomenet varit möjlig. Syftet med föreliggande systematiska litteraturstudie var bland annat att baserat på den tidigare forskningen kring de partnervåldexponerade barnen belysa den psykologiska situation dessa barn kan befinna sig i samt ge en översikt av det aktuella kunskapsläget gällande exponeringens konsekvenser på barn. Det empiriska materialet utgjordes av peer review artiklar publicerade mellan 2000 och 2009. Resultatet tyder bland annat på att barnen uppvisar internaliserings- och/eller externaliseringsbeteenden som konsekvens av IPV exponeringen. Barnens kön, tidpunkten för exponeringen samt barnens sociala situation är de faktorer som har funnits vara betydelsefulla för exponeringens konsekvenser.

We investigated a retirement home, where we looked at whether there are differences, disagreements or conflicts between teams who work day and night shifts. Our purpose was to examine the Heads of Unit and the employees perspectives on their perceived work situation, cooperation difficulties and why they emerged. We chose the general systems theory as our theoretical basis, which gave us the opportunity to highlight different parts that can affect the working climate and the cooperation of the working groups. The study also highlights the importance of structure, common goals, reporting and dialogue meetings. To understand the perceived work situation, we used methodological triangulation, using quantitative and qualitative methods (surveys, semi-structured interviews).

This essay contains two stories that reflect the reality I face as an educator, as well as a reflective discussion about my self-perceived dilemma. The dilemma reflects a classroom situation where I as an educator have trouble dividing my focus, my focus is either put on entire the class or on the child with special needs. Through this self-perceived situation I have started to question how children with special needs find their place in the school today. I discuss how I can handle and look at the unique situation that occurs when meeting this child.Terms like integration, inclusion, segregation, social rights and the expression "a school for everyone" will be discussed in this text, as well as how we can connect these terms and expressions to the problems I find in the school system?s way of handling children with special needs.I also highlight my dilemma from different ethical perspective.
