This was done due to the use of qualitative interviews with a total of six social workers. Of these six, three administrated social assistance for adolescents while the other three did the same for adults. Prior research of poverty attribution greatly inspired this essay.

The purpose with this essay was to study how the social work is shaped in the methadone programme and how the staffs treat and work with the social integration for the patients.We have studied the experience of a medical assisted treatment from two different treatment clinics and focused on their treatment programme. We have chosen to focus on the social aspect but we have also been taking part of the medical treatment - the methadone. In order to get a bigger picture of our problem area we also studied how Sweden's narcotic politic is constructed and how a narcotic life could look like before the entrance in the program. We describe this with the help of the theory about the narcotic carrer and the society's view on a normal living..

This thesis is a study of social movements and their possibilities to effect politics by infuencing values in society through framing. I've looked upon social movements from a functionalistic-structuralistic perspective, as if they were carriers of values from people that otherwise won't be represented in the political life. The values that the social movements are struggling for can affect both the opinion and the decision-makers since the social movements in an active way are trying ti influence the society. The thesis examines the political opportunities that social movements hav to mobilise and grow. I have looked at different factors that either improve or make the political opportunities worse.

The purpose of this paper was to discuss stigma and stigmatisation in relation to social policy and social work. By discussing welfare systems in social policy I wanted to see if there could be any connection between social policy and stigma. I used case studies of hearing impaired adults to give examples of how the stigma processes work. By connecting the stigma and the social policy theories with the case studies I wanted to see how the social policy could affect the stigma processes or vice versa.In the paper the concept of stigma has been described and discussed, foremost using the theories of Erving Goffman. I have also discussed the welfare system and the connection between residual systems and stigma.

How do you do co-operation between government agencies? It is a wide spread view that there can be quite a few hitches in co-operation between agencies. In later years this idea has spread to the media where there has been negative coverage of the social service agencies. This generally applies to cases where children suffer because the right assistance takes too long to co-ordinate or does not get co-ordinated at all between schools, healthcare and social services. The social welfare law dictates that it is the social welfare office duty to co-ordinate the government agencies for the child?s best interest.

Our paper is targeting mainly students, but also all other people interested in social work with children. The purpose of our study was to investigate how the social workers experience and handle their work with children, who have been exposed to sexual abuse, and what kind of support and guidance the social workers are offered, in order to handle their working situation. We chose to perform a qualitative study, by the use of interviews, since we found it to be the most appropriate way to gather the information. Our conclusion is that the work with these issues is emotionally burdensome and requires a great commitment, however it is essential for the social workers to maintain a certain distance to their work, in order not to influence their personal lives. It is through experience and knowledge that the social workers learn how to handle their working situation. We also learned that although the work with sexual abuse against children gave birth to different emotions of the social worker, the social workers feel satisfaction with their work, by helping the exposed children. We hope that our paper will inspire and encourage to further studies in the area, since there is still much to be explored. .

The purpose of this study was to examine knowledge within the social services. We narrowed the study down from general knowledge to scientifically produced knowledge and how the social workers relate to such knowledge. We aimed to see how the social workers perceive different knowledge and how they relate to the different sources of knowledge. We also examined the different factors that will enable and motivate social workers to stay updated with scientifically produced knowledge that is relevant to their work. We also examined what limits the ability or motivation for renewing ones knowledge.

Det Àr oerhört viktigt, i synnerhet pÄ en konkurrensutsatt marknad, att anvÀnda sig av lojalitetsfrÀmjande ÄtgÀrder som sticker ut och skiljer sig frÄn mÀngden. LojalitetsÄtgÀrderna ska vara av en sÄdan art att de inte ska kunna kopieras av konkurrenter. Med benÀmningen ?Social Lojalitet? kombineras ickemonetÀra belöningar som incitament för att skapa en sant lojal kund, med funktionell kvalitet samt kundens egna sociala nÀtverk..

Cancer Àr idag den grupp av sjukdomar som mÀnniskor mest befarar att drabbas av och sjukdomarna ökar kontinuerligt. Detta innebÀr att varje verksam sjuksköterska nÄgon gÄng i sitt yrkesverksamma liv sannolikt kommer att ansvara för omvÄrdnad av en patient med cancer. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att undersöka sjuksköterskors upplevelser av att vÄrda patienter med cancer. Elva studier analyserades med en kvalitativ innehÄllsanalys. Analysen resulterade i fyra kategorier; att utvecklas genom vÀrdefulla möten, att sakna tid och rum, att kÀnna sig sÄrbar och emotionellt drÀnkt samt att önska erfarenhet och stöd.

Detta arbete grundar sig pa? tanken om att kontrapunktsstudier i rena?ssansstil skulle kunna levandego?ras genom historiskt grundade improvisationso?vningar. Ett studium av musikhistorisk litteratur tillsammans med analyser och praktisk o?vning har resulterat i ett pedagogiskt och konstna?rligt material, som kan anva?ndas fo?r att o?versiktligt visa de historiska fo?rha?llandena kring improviserad musik, men som ocksa? kan fungera som ett verktyg fo?r instudering och konstna?rligt framfo?rande. .
