Sweden has an obligation to report child abuse suspicions to Social Services. According to Socialtjänstlagen (swedish constitution) 1 § Chapter 14, all employees in agencies affecting children, such as schools, have a responsibility to report their suspicions. Research shows that many abuses are not reported. The consequence of this is that Social Services does not hear about all cases of abused and harmed children. One profession where reporting is mandated is school counselors.

A decision has been made that the Swedish and the Finnish Navy will expand their cooperation by creating the ?Swedish-Finnish Naval Task Group? (SFNTG).Based on Michael Codner?s theory of interoperability, this essay?s aim is to investigate if the Swedish and the Finnish currently are interoperable with each other, due to their military strategic concepts.According to Codner, similarities between the cooperating nation?s military strategic concepts are required in order to reach a high degree of interoperability. This essay will analyze and compare Sweden and Finland?s military strategic concepts, based on three categories; Global Projection, Territorial Defence and Combat Capability.The conclusion is that there are differences between the Swedish and the Finnish military strategic concepts in every category, of varying degrees. By looking at the results of this investigation, it is clear in what direction the two nations have to adapt their concepts to enable a high degree of interoperability for the future of the SFNTG..

Following an increase in hostile foreign activity. The discussion regarding Sweden?s defense force´s ability to perform its task has come to a new heading. With the end of the cold war as a major revolution in matters of international security, a major overhaul has taken place to transform the static total defense plan of the nation to a less rigid operational system.Following an analysis of the budgets total amount from the governments of 2002 until 2015 it is clear that while the amount of resources has never directly been lowered, it has shrunk in relation to the countries total GDP. The possible futures for the defense of Sweden bring three possibilities forward in correlation three unique perspectives on military and political policy.Out of the three possibilities the focus on military strength as a political resource seems to be garnering the most support with the latest incursions made my foreign submersibles and the ever growing presence of 5th generation of warfare.

Den här genusvetenskapliga uppsatsen är en undersökning av hur två HBTQ-organisationer iIsrael/Palestina konstruerar sig själva och sina motståndsstrategier, utifrån föreställningar omhomosexualitet, etnicitet och nationalitet, men också utifrån hur organisationerna förhåller sig tilloch använder sig av ett föreställt ?Väst?. Utgångspunkten för min undersökning är de respektiveorganisationernas engelskspråkiga hemsidor. Med idéanalys som metod närmar jag mig mittmaterial utifrån några av de teoretiska diskussioner som förts inom den västerländska akademinkring homosexualitet i Mellanöstern. I resultatet diskuterar jag betydelsen av ett föreställt ?Väst?för de respektive organisationernas sätt att skriva fram sina mål och verksamheter.

The aim of this study was to analyze the assessment of the national tests seen from the teacher?s perspective. The national tests are performed in the Swedish school, classes 3, 5, 9, and the upper secondary school (gymnasiet).

The last control assessment done in 2009 by the department of school inspections on the order of the Swedish government, showed big differences between the assessments done by the teachers, and the assessments completed by the department of school inspections.

The purpose of this examination is to identify how notions of Swedishness is created artistically, and from where these notions come. My method is to make a study on exhibition catalogues on the theme Swedishness/Nordism, with focus on the contemporary Swedish artist Peter Johansson. With a retrospect of his childhood in Dalecarlia, he investigates a Swedish iconography with it?s roots in national romanticism, which for more than one hundred years has been preserved and exploited of the tourist industry to market Sweden. It?s this monotonous iconography that Johansson deconstructs to make it appear like something else ? namely an iconography based on ethnic purity, which pushes away the foreign and protects the own.

As students of graphic design the craft of print is close to our hearts. One of the most essential mediums of the evolution of printing techniques is the poster. In a world where digital mediums are being utilized to a greater degree everyday, our love for the printed poster makes us wonder if the days of the poster are counted.What we did was to take a closer look at the role of the poster in promoting events. We focused on the Stockholm area and did qualitative interviews with three different event promoters. Live Nation which is an international live entertainment promoter, Dramaten which is one of Sweden?s most well respected theaters and Stockholm Live which is a stand up comedy promoter in Stockholm city.From doing this we learned that economics play an important part in defining the role of the poster.

Förordningen om Europabolag trädde i kraft i oktober 2004 och möjliggör för företag att kunna bedriva gränsöverskridande samverkan i aktiebolagsform. Detta innebär att företag nu kan bedriva verksamhet i olika länder utan att behöva bilda ett nytt aktiebolag i varje land än moderbolagets hemma nation. AstraZeneca undersöker fördelarna med att kunna ombilda en del av sin verksamhet till ett Europabolag. För att kunna bilda ett Europabolag måste dock AstraZeneca AB göra en del koncerninterna förvärv. Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur dessa koncerninterna omstruktureringar kommer att gå till samt att se hur eventuella övervärden som uppkommer genom förvärven skulle kunna påverka AstraZeneca AB och hela AstraZeneca plc´s koncernredovisning.
