Social enterprises are increasingly gaining ground as an organisational form in Sweden, however the institutional structures for financing these types of organisations are yet to be established. With its usual origin within the civic society, social enterprises prioritise a higher goal than to maximise economic profit, which often causes these organisations to be dependent upon resources from external constituents within its institutional environment. The aim of this study was to examine how a social enterprise, which derives from the civic society, acts to mobilise resources from constituents in its institutional environment. This was executed through a case study of Jordbro VĂ€rldsorkester (JVO) - a typical organisation in the civic society which takes the form of a social enterprise - by identifying how assets were used to gain resources in strategic responses to institutional processes and examining how institutional processes affects how JVO acts. Throughout the study, qualitative interviews were conducted with JVO and constituents in its institutional environment and a theoretical framework was developed which explains how capital is used to gain more capital in an emergent strategy of strategic responses as the organisation gets in contact with institutional processes from its institutional environment.

Syftet med denna studie var att belysa kompetenser hos handledare samt att beskriva hur handledare kan stödja sjuksköterskestudenten för att nÄ mÄlen i verksamhetsförlagd utbildning.

Syftet med uppsatsen Àr att visa vad nÄgra pedagoger, vid olika tidpunkter, berÀttar om en högfungerande autistisk elev i grundskolan och hur de pedagoger som har mest kontakt med Alice ser pÄ henne, hennes problem och möjligheter.   Hur förstÄr och förklarar pedagogerna hennes problem?   Vad berÀttar de om Alice i ett kognitivt, socialt och pedagogisk perspektiv?   Hur ser de pÄ syftet med inkluderingen: Vad Àr mÄlet och hur menar de att det ska uppnÄs? För att besvara syftets frÄgestÀllningar har jag genomfört ostrukturerade intervjuer med sex pedagoger i Alices nÀrhet vid tre olika tillfÀllen dÀr de har ombetts berÀtta om Alice. Pedagogernas berÀttelser analyseras sedan utifrÄn aktuell forskning och litteratur om autism, inkludering/integrering och narrativa teorier.   NÄgra generella motiv och aspekter framtrÀder sÀrskilt tydligt i pedagogernas berÀttelser om Alice.   För det första handlar det om hur man ska tilltala och bemöta Alice. RÄd om tydlighet, struktur och rak kommunikation förstÄs pÄ olika sÀtt av olika pedagoger.   För det andra kan man se en dramaturgisk strategi hos flera av de intervjuade att förklara och dramatisera Alice problem i förhÄllande till hur det var tidigare och hur det kommer att bli i senare Ärskurser.   För det tredje syns en skillnad i hur de intervjuade beskriver och förklarar Alices problem. NÄgra av pedagogerna ser det som ett annat sÀtt att tÀnka medan de flesta betonar den biomedicinska förklaringsmodellen.   Slutligen skiljer sig berÀttelserna Ät genom sin beskrivning av syftet och ambitionen med integreringen av Alice och hur det ska uppnÄs.

The aim of this study was to examine the view of social service workers on the secondary housing market based upon their work with social investigations regarding people with a difficult substance abuse. The foundation of this study rests upon a phenomenon, which according to other scholars, occurs in the secondary housing market in Sweden. The secondary housing market consists of a multitude of housing projects that social services provide for people who are homeless. The phenomenon is that the secondary housing market contains a number of demands aimed at the clients who live in these housing projects. If a client fails to live up to the demands it can sometimes lead to negative consequences which results in an exclusion from the housing projects.

The aim of the thesis was to explore the attitudes toward social documentation held by care personnel, as well as factors that could have an impact on the process of social documentation. The study is based on a survey encompassing 100 respondents working as care personnel at six different eldercare units at Kungsholmen in Stockholm. The data was analyzed by quantitative methods, using a statistical software package (SPSS). The main questions in the study are whether the respondents know how, what and why they should document, what obstacles they experience and what they would need in order to document more or better, as well as whether there are factors that influence their attitudes and knowledge regarding documentation. The key results show that more time is the most common need, and lack of time the most common obstacle to social documentation reported by the respondents. Furthermore, the results show that those who report that they are satisfied with their working conditions are most likely to also report that they know how and why social documentation should be conducted. These results suggest that it is urgent for organizations to create good working conditions in order to increase motivation for social documentation. The results are analyzed using organizational theories.
