Syftet med uppsatsen är att genom en empirisk studie ta reda på om det finns några samband mellan elevers upplevda påverkansmöjlighet i skolan och deras upplevda påverkansmöjlighet i samhället. Detta görs genom att besvara frågor om eleverna upplever att de kan påverka skolan respektive samhället samt om man kan se en koppling mellan dessa två och om elevdemokrati gör eleverna till mer demokratiskt engagerade medborgare. Undersökningen grundar sig på intervjuer med gymnasieelever på högskoleförberedande program Resultaten från intervjuerna analyseras med grund i teorier om deltagardemokrati och John Deweys teorier om demokrati och skola. De intervjuade eleverna ger olika bild av hur de uppfattar sina möjligheter att påverka i skolan och i samhället. Dock kan man generellt säga att de som upplever att de kan påverka på sin skola också upplever att de kan påverka i samhället, motsvarande samband finns för de som upplever att de inte kan påverka.

A social intranet is an information and communication channel that is relatively new. There is still a small amount of research done around social intranet and what it is, and also on what organizations and their members may benefit from using such an intranet. Therefore, this paper was written with the purpose to em-phasize the reasons, possibilities and difficulties of implementing and using a so-cial intranet. With interview as method we took part of the experiences and views on social intranet from a number of organizations that are using or is about to establish a social intranet, and also from companies who deliver the service. Through the use of previous research in organizational communication, we then analysed the responses we received from our respondents.

Denna studie grundas på huruvida media har blivit mer dömande än granskande i sina rapporteringar om högt uppsatta politiker över en tidsperiod på 20 år. Det som har granskats är tidningars rapportering då en högt uppsatt politiker bestridit över lagen. För att få en grundlig vetenskap om hur media fungerar i vårt samhälle är uppsatsen uppbyggd på kapitel som naturligt leder fram läsare till analysen. Till analysen har artiklar använts från två Svenska rikstäckande tidningar såsom Expressen och Dagens Nyheter. De politiska händelser som analyseras är Ebbe Carlsson- affären från slutet av 80- talet, Mona Sahlin från 90- talet och slutligen Laila Freivalds från 2000- talet.
