This study aims to find out what happens with the Roles that are seemingly left behind. Are there Roles that are harder or easier to exercise? Available Roles with us through life and affect our future decisions or we switched completely away from them and create new Roles based on the situations we find ourselves in at the moment? The aim is also to see how the relationship looks like between closed Roles and new Roles in life. To try to find this out, I have used the narrative method. The study is based largely on Goffman's theories of Roles, behind and above the front- and back stage.

The purpose of this study was to find out how gender Roles are described in two popular children?s detective stories, one of them written in 2002 and the other in 1946, to be able to compare the two. In order to do this, I used a qualitative research method in which I read and analyzed the text and illustrations of the books out of a gender perspective.I used gender theories describing how stereotypical gender Roles are displayed, and these theories were later associated with the books I studied. I also used previous research concerning gender Roles in other children's books in order to compare those results with my own.After having read, analyzed and compared the two books, I found vast resemblances between them, but also certain differences. However, it is obvious that the gender Roles in both books for the most part are traditional.

The questions I focused on were this:How sexual Roles are introduced on the pictures in the chosen mathematic books?What are the similarities and differences between the presentations of the gender in the chosen education materials?I used a semiotic method to analyze my pictures. The central parts of my theories were how we think that gender is created using characteristics and attribute. In my analyze I found out that the pictures in one of the book series showed more stereotypic sexual Roles than the other book series did..

New laws and recommendations within corporate governance during the last years have affected the way board of directors work. The board is said to have and fulfill three Roles: a control role, a service role and a strategy role. These Roles could be understood by three theoretical theories: the agency theory, the resource dependence theory and the stewardship theory. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether, and if so how, the board work differs between two small firms based on these Roles, given that one of the firms is a publicly listed firm and the other is a privately owned firm. Using a qualitative case study as research method we find that the board work differs between the two companies when it comes to these Roles.

In this thesis, we are concerned with the many different professional Roles that a public librarian, working at a small library, has. More specifically, the purpose is to find out which different Roles that librarians believe they have, and which view they have upon those. Furthermore, we are exploring the tendencies that librarians discuss in relation to these professional Roles. To pursue this goal, we have used the methodology of focus group interviews, with the unconventional twist that our interviews were done using web chats. This may have the advantage that the informants may present more honest views than when using ordinary interviews due to the anonymous character of chatting.

According to the curriculum the Swedish school system should aim to let the democratic values permeate the school as a whole, and the school should assume each student's individual abilities in teaching. (Lpo -94) Democratic education is what the pragmatist John Dewey strongly encourages in his book Democracy and Education, which is why he stands for the theoretical framework of the concept of democracy in the school context. This study aims to examine whether and if so, the social Roles in a classroom can affect students' opportunities for learning. The main research questions asked were:How can the social Roles affect students' opportunities for learning in a classroom? How do students perceive that the social Roles in the classroom affect their opportunities for learning? This has been investigated by two complementary perspectives.  Partly thru a student perspective to raise the students 'own experiences, and partly from an outside perspective to show how I, as an observer can see that social Roles affect students' opportunities for learning.
