The purpose of this study was to discuss Young immigrant's experiences of the meeting between their original culture and swedish culture. In this discussion certain emphasis is laid on the formation of identity. In a more specific manner the aim was to find out which underlying circumstances contributed to the individuals choice in considering him- or herself as swedish or not and what these circumstances depended on.The empirical material of this study consists of five lifestories based on the methodological study of narrative. I have analyzed the material with help from Anthony Giddens' theory of structuration with starting point in the conception of ontological safety. I identified four different themes that frequently recured in each lifestory: identity in migration- and integrationsprocesses, the open doors of globalization, "swedish" identity and belonging in two cultures.

Young female delinquents are victimized which affects their culpability; they are less likely to be held responsible for the crimes they committed.

Psykologisk forskning visar på att unga medarbetare, den så kallade Millennialgenerationen, efterfrågar en annan typ av ledarskap än deras äldre föregångare. Syftet med studien var att undersöka unga medarbetares föreställningar om transformativt ledarskap samt i vilken utsträckning dessa föreställningar motiverar dem i arbetet. Hypotes: Transformativt ledarskap är gynnsamt för unga vuxnas motivation på arbetsplatsen jämfört med andra ledarstilar så som laissez-faire och transaktionellt ledarskap. Undersökningsmetoden som använts var en webbaserad enkätdesign med 28 deltagare i åldrarna 20-38. Resultatet stödjer studiens syfte och hypotes, det transformativa ledarskapet var det som motiverade unga vuxna mest på arbetsplatser.

In recent years there has been a growing interest directed towards focusing on the importance of clear evidence for interventions in social work. To enable the measurement it?s necessary to develop concrete models with manuals on how social work should be designed. Evaluation of the benefits is made in relation to how well the method can detect evidence of clear measurable results. When measuring the result it?s of importance to emphasis on pre and post the situation, not the situation where social work takes place.

Uppsatsen syftade till att undersöka den interna marknadsföringen (IM) inom Ernst & Young genom att identifiera de IM-aktiviteter som genomförs inom företaget för att motivera sina anställda. IM har operationaliserats som intern marknadsorientering (IMO) enligt Lings och Greenleys (2005) IMO-modell. Modellen består av fem beteendedimensioner med tillhörande aktiviteter.  IMO inom Ernst & Young (avgränsat till huvudkontoret i Stockholm) och framförallt aktiviteterna som typifierar beteendedimensionerna har undersökts i en kvalitativ fallstudie med deduktiv ansats. Datainsamlingen har genomförts med hjälp av semistrukturerade intervjuer och telefonenkäter med HR- och marknads- och informationsansvariga samt genom instudering av sekundärdata. Resultatet från datainsamlingen i en jämförelse med den teoretiska plattformen visade på att Ernst & Young i stor utsträckning har en IMO då företaget genomför beteendedimensionernas typifierade aktiviteter.
