Kränkande särbehandling i arbetslivet : Arbetsgivares ansvar och utköp av arbetstagare som utsatts för kränkande särbehandling
The main subject for this essay is victimization at work. The first question concerns victimization and the responsibility of the employer when bullying and harassments occur. The second question regards agreements between the employer and the employee, where the latter is paid to quit the employment because he or she is subjected to victimization, but also if any specific group of employees is especially affected. The purpose of the essay is to create understanding and clarification within current law, but also awareness of the possibilities where employers can create agreements with employees in order to make them finish their employments. In order to manage finding information some labour market parties were asked questions about their experiences of victimization at work and agreements among their members or employees.
Rosa entreprenörer: En studie av homosexuella män som entreprenörer i ett heteronormativt samhälle
Purpose This thesis tries to create an understanding of how male homosexual entrepreneurs, both as persons and as a concept, relates to the fact that entrepreneurship, as well as the society as a whole, is heteronormative. Moreover, it examines by what methods the male homosexual entrepreneurs cope with the seemingly paradox of a homosexual man who also is an entrepreneur. Method The method has been qualitative from a social construction-point of view. We have made semi-structured interviews with nine male homosexual entrepreneurs and structured the findings from the interviews with a computer programme and mind mapping techniques. We have compared the structured findings with theories, in an abducting manner, to find out an answer to the purpose of this thesis.
Solel till Akademiska sjukhuset : möjlig genererad effekt och solcellers estetiska konsekvenser
Today many buildings and it´s nearby surroundings are designed to achieve some kind of environmental goal.The issue concerning energy consumption is currently at focus and it is relevant that we start increase the share of renewable energy. Solar energy is an infinite resource and should therefore be considered when selecting an energy supplier. Uppsala University hospital is facing major restructuring when parts of the existing buildings will be refurbished and a large new building will be constructed. White Architects have developed a study concerning the new building and for some of the existing buildings on the hospital campus. Uppsala County requires tough energy measures and wants the new building to be classified as an eco-building in Whites following work. The classifications will involve high energy source requirements. This work has been conducted to see if solar power can be envisaged as a supplementary energy source for the University hospital and also to investigate the aesthetic impact of solar cells on the new building.
Artros - en sjukdom som drabbar både djur och människa, en komparativ studie med kaninen som modelldjur.
SAMMANFATTNING
Artros och skador i ledbrosk är vanliga problem hos både människor och djur, som orsakar stora fysiska besvär i form av smärta och nedsatt rörelseförmåga. Idag finns ett flertal olika behandlingsmetoder mot artros, men ännu finns ingen bra behandlingsmetod för att åstadkomma läkning av ett skadat ledbrosk.
I den här studien användes kanin som modelldjur för att utvärdera en ny behandling mot artros på människa. Målet var att stimulera nybildning av ledbrosk via rekrytering av mesenkymala stamceller.
Studien utfördes på 20 kaniner av rasen New Zeeland White, 6-7 månader gamla honor med en kroppsvikt på ca 4 kg. En ledskada skapades med borr på den mediala femurkondylen i kaninernas vänstra knäled under anestesi. Därefter injicerades en hyaluronsyragel enbart eller tillsammans med tillväxtfaktorn bone morphogenic protein-2 (BMP-2) i leden.
Surrogatmödraskap: Arbete, gudagåva eller exploatering? : En analys av den svenska debatten kring surrogatmödraskap
Surrogacy is an arrangement in which a woman carries, delivers, and then relinquishes a baby to commissioning parents. The arrangement challenges traditional norms and definitions of reproduction, pregnancy and motherhood, and at the same time raises difficult ethical, philosophical and social questions. There is currently an ongoing debate in Sweden, where all forms of surrogacy is illegal. The debate is polemical and harsh, with advocates arguing that surrogacy is defensible on the basis of individual rights and women's right to choose over their own bodies, and those in opposition are convinced on an intersectional basis that women are being used and exposed on the market of surrogacy.The purpose of this study is to investigate the debate on surrogacy in the Swedish context. Using qualitative text analysis, the study aims to increase understanding about the debate over surrogacy by analyzing texts published in Swedish press during 2010-2013.
Unga mäns kriminella beteende : - En studie av vilka sociala och personliga förhållanden som kan påverka unga män att utveckla ett kriminellt beteende
Mitt syfte med uppsatsen var att undersöka vilka sociala och personliga förhållanden som bidrar till utvecklingen av ett kriminellt beteende bland unga män. Jag har genomfört intervjuer med ett antal unga män i 18-19års åldern ur samma vänskapskrets för att få en inblick i deras förklaringar till sitt kriminella beteende. Uppsatsen bygger på deras berättelser och funderingar kring sin situation.Uppsatsens material har samlats in genom kvalitativa intervjuer som analyserats ur socialpsykologiska perspektiv. Resultatet visar bl.a. att ungdomar uppger att de begår brott av rationella skäl för att få snabba pengar och saker de vill ha.
Madeleine McCann - hela världens dotter : En studie om svenska medier rapportering kring en brittisk flickas försvinnande
Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka den första månadens rapportering kring försvinnandet av Madeleine McCann och på så sätt få en bild av vilka faktorer som skapade ett så stort publikt och medialt intresse för just detta fall. För att kunna svara på detta ställs tre övergripande frågor ? vilka aspekter lyfter medierna fram i rapporteringen, hur bidrar dramaturgisk bearbetning till att forma rapporteringen samt vilken betydelse får huvudaktörer i rapporteringen.Undersökningen görs genom en kvalitativ analys av återkommande teman i rapporteringen. Denna kompletteras med en kvantitativ innehållsanalys för att få fram statistik på hur mycket utrymme visa aspekter får samt vilka benämningar som görs vid porträtteringen av Madeleine McCann.Det undersökta materialet består av artiklar från tidsperioden 5 maj 2007 till och med den 7 juni 2007 i Aftonbladet, Expressen och Dagens Nyheter.De teoretiska ramverk uppsatsen utgår ifrån är teorier om socialkonstruktivism, nyhetsvärde, medielogik och narrativ berättande.Resultatet visade att den främsta faktorn till att fallet uppmärksammades är genom den personifiering som gjordes av Madeleine McCann och hennes föräldrar. Personifieringen leder till att rapporteringen kan konstrueras till en nyhetsberättelse.
Registreringsmetoder för initial och avancerad dental erosion : Litteraturstudie
Introduktion: Dental erosion definieras som förlust av tandens hårdvävnad genom en kemisk process som inte involverar bakterier. Dagens förändrade livsstil och kosthållning medför att våra tänder oftare utsätts för kemisk påverkan som kan leda till erosion. Det är flera faktorer som samverkar och dental erosion har en multifaktoriell etiologi.Syfte: Syftet är att beskriva olika registreringsmetoder för dental erosion.Frågeställningar: Vilka metoder kan användas för registrering av initial erosion? Vilka metoder kan användas för registrering av avancerad erosionsskada? Vilka metoder är kliniskt beprövade på patient?Metod: LitteraturstudieResultat: Ett flertal registreringsmetoder fanns beskrivna i litteraturen, merparten var inte applicerbara kliniskt. Registeringsmetoderna som framgick i den beskrivande litteraturstudien var: 3D scanning microscope (IFM), Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), Digital photography (DP), Focus-variation 3D microscopy (FVM), Longitudinal microradiography (LMR), Non-contact confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM), Optical assessment, Optical profilometry (OP), Quantitative light-induced fluorescence (QLF), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Stylus profilometry (SP), Ultrasound, White light interferometry (WLI) och X-ray diffraction (XRD).Konklusion: Vid registrering av initial erosion krävs analys av tandytans mineralinnehåll samt optiska analyser med hjälp av instrument.
Gruvrätten vid Stora Kopparberget 1641-1682 : en undersökning över rannsakade brott och utdömda straff
The purpose of this essay is to examine and explain how the Swedish mining court of Stora Kopparberget (the Great Copper Mountain) implemented its judicial legislation between 1641-1682. Questions are asked about which counts of indictments the court tried, which sentences they handed out, in what quantities and how these results looks in comparison with other contemporary courts. The index cards of the court judicial protocols are the primary source of information. The methods are those of quantity- and comparative analysis.The results show that theft of copper ore was the most common crime ransacked by the court. Other common crimes were (in order): sin of omission, transgression of work directions, fights, slander and disdain, trade of stolen ore, failing appearance in court etc.Fines were by far the most common sentence followed by shorter imprisonments, gauntlets, loss of right to mine possession, twig beating, loss of work, penal servitude, banishment, ?wooden horse riding? and finally military transcription.

Värdering, Grafik och Logik : En kvantitativ studie av svensk nyhetsgrafik
News graphics as a part of journalism is something that?s constantly developing along with the news. That?s what we believed when we started this paper including its study. And we still believe the same, now that we?re done.News graphics itself is fairly common in Swedish newspapers, it can be seen every day in almost any major newspaper and is perfect for describing an event like the pollution of the sea over many years or just simply point out on a map where a city is located.This is one of the reasons to why we wrote this; another reason is that there?s almost nothing else written on the subject in northern Europe.
En intuitiv & lättillgänglig flyktmask för gruvmiljö
I have always lived around mines and around people working with mines. They are a natural part of my life and, inevitably, a great interest of mine. When time came to make a decision for a degree project, focusing on the mine context felt as natural as breathing.In LKABs underground mines, safety in fire accidents is a great priority. Of outmost importance for the escape is to have a personal gas filter for filtration of smoke and/or gas. My design project resulted in a concept which is aimed at shortening the user journey from the start of the accident until the user has applied the personal safety solution and is ready to escape.Throughout the project I?ve been working with a context which is heavily regulated, and all problems are serious, important ones.
Kriminalideologier i svensk politik.
Authors: Patrik Jäverbo & Jon LindheTitle: Greener on the other sideLevel: Bachelor of JournalismLocation: University of GothenburgLanguage: SwedishIn later years the strict laws and policies surrounding cannabis use have been questioned around the world by several influential leaders, among them US president Barack Obama and former UN secretary general Kofi Annan. It has been argued that the ?War on Drugs? has done more harm than good and in some American states and a number of European countries the drug have been legalized or decriminalized. Everybody does not agree however, that legalization is the best course of action and in Sweden the emotions have sometimes run high in the discussions taking place in television shows and newspapers.The purpose of this study is to examine the image media portrays of cannabis; based on the theory that mass media is an important influence on the individual and the way in which he or she views the world. To put the result into a context the Swedish media image will be compared with the one in Denmark and Norway.
Hot, våld och trakasserier : En studie om handlingsutrymme, politiska ledare och demokrati
Studies have shown that politicians are significantly more likely to become victims of violent crime than other citizens in Sweden. In fact increasing political rank and engagement are directly proportionate to increased risk for violence. Threat towards politicians is not only dangerous to the individuals involved but also to the democratic system as a whole.Political scientists the world over have done a lot of research on democracy, but I have been unable to find a single method or theory that examines how violence, threat and harassment affect political leaders and democratic systems.The aim of this study is to expand the existing model made by Tommy Möller, professor in political science. In his model he presents 11 factors that affect political leaders ability to act. My aim is to develop his model by adding a 12 th factor ?violence, threat and harassment?.
En förändring av arbetslösheten i Sverige, påverkar det brottsligheten? : En ekonometrisk ansats
Finanskrisens inträde i mitten av 2008 utsattes Sveriges ekonomi för kraftiga påfrestningar. BNP-tillväxten mattades av och vi har till och med sett en negativ tillväxt för första gången sedan krisen i 90-talets början. Samtidigt har både hushållens konsumtion och näringslivets produktion rasat vilket har bidragit till kännbara effekter och en osäker tid för båda parter. Till en följd av detta har många företag tvingats avveckla sin verksamhet helt medan andra fått se över sina kostnader. Detta har i sin tur bidragit till att arbetslösheten ökat med cirka tre procentenheter mellan 2008 och 2010.
