På frågeställningen om hur smittskyddslagen tillämpas, efterföljs och upplevs blev svaren på de enkäter som delades ut en viktig informationskälla då dessa blev svarade på av människor som är direkt påverkade av SmL. Som ett gemensamt drag över de svaren som skrevs var att de visste om sina rättigheter och skyldigheter, men de tyckte inte att SmL var rättvis mot dem som är hiv positiva. De menade

The aim of this thesis is to investigate the official Swedish interpretation of integration in regard to the power relation between the majority group and minority groups, and also to study how the interpretation has shifted with the governments between 1991 and 2008. To achieve this, idea analysis was used for a method. The material studied was official governmental documents such as proposals

This thesis examines how the leadership of the European Union has developed over the years and what has caused these changes. The Commission and the Council will be the compared objects for this analysis. The institutions are delegated unique powers in the executive politics but the leadership of the Union is formally largely unregulated, and is often described as shared between the two institutio

Today’s environmental issues are often said to be characterised by high complexity and uncertainty, which causes policymakers to be greatly dependent on scientific facts. Drawing on constructivist assumptions that the interplay between science and policy is complex, and therefore cannot be explained by the notion that more research leads to less uncertainty, I address how policymakers tend to refe

Since the new integration policy from 1975 Swedish politics has been characterized as a multicultural society among scholars and others both in Sweden and abroad. The purpose of this thesis was to study the political debate around three minority practices (the Jewish and Muslim method of slaughtering animals, the veil and the turban, and religious and ethnic schools) to find out if the policy of t

Det finska inbördeskriget bröt ut i januari 1918, varade i drygt fyra månader och kostade över 30 000 människoliv. Konflikten stod mellan de borgerliga vita och de socialistiska röda. Med hjälp av diskursanalys och teorier om fiendebilder analyserar vi hur identiteterna för de båda i konflikten inblandade sidorna aktiveras och reproduceras, och hur dessa identiteter används vid skildrandet av hand

The focus of this thesis is the EU-Canada relationship and the perplexing notion that despite common fundamental values and interests in foreign affairs as well as enduring historical ties, cooperation between these like-minded actors is not as developed as would be expected. Using the method of process-tracing, the objective is to clarify what could be the reasons behind this condition. No single

Crime Terror Nexus studies headed by economists, criminologists, sociologists and anthropologists have studied the growing tendency towards cooperation between networks driven by organized crime and terrorist organizations. This thesis attempts to identify the reasons for this growing cooperation by applying Saskia Sassen’s globalization theory from her book Territory, Authority, Rights: From Medi

The Bush administration expanded the executive’s powers in the “war on terror”. This gave the president, according to the administration, authority to detain “en-emy combatants” indefinitely at the US naval base in Guantánamo. The official purpose of the detention centre at Guantánamo was that the suspected terrorists were to be tried in military commissions. The administration bypassed the crimin

Zambia and Zimbabwe share a common postcolonial political history. Both countries have for many years been dominated politically by the former liberation movements UNIP and ZANU (PF). This thesis attempts to account for why, despite their similar political hegemony, UNIP was overthrown by the opposition though democratic elections but ZANU (PF) was not. Central to the study is the theoretical atte

Konflikten mellan Israel och Palestina är en konflikt som har visat sig vara extremt svårlöst och komplex. Ett antal olika utomstående parter har sedan konfliktens början verkat för fred i området. USA har sedan början av 1990-talet agerat som den huvudsakliga medlaren i konflikten. Den amerikanska medlingsstrategin har förändrats med årens gång och har mött såväl bra som dålig kritik. Problem som

Before the coming Durban Review Conference against racism the universality in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights is questioned as a result of the intense conflict between freedom of expression and religious liberty particularly according to the concept of defamations of religions. The conflict is declared to be the opposition between “universal ideal” and “cultural relativism”. In this inve

I have in this essay looked at the current (2008) research situation in Sweden on education and democracy, with focus on student influence. My aim is to make a brief overview of the research done about democratic education with focus on student influence. The essay begins with a short introduction and background before discussing the primary methods used by the researchers; these include questionn

In this thesis, the idea of Knowledge Management (KM) and the planning of the introduction of what is called a “KM approach” in the European Parliament (EP) is studied. The first purpose is to analyze how existing KM thoughts can be supplemented by insights from a subset of democratic theory (e-democracy), by placing focus on the elected representative and his or her information needs. Five “democ

Denna uppsats behandlar frågeställningen om vad som var utmärkande för Göran Persson som regeringsbildare. Syftet är att ge en generell bild över svensk politik. Vi har riktat in oss på tre aspekter som återkommer genom hela uppsatsen. Dessa är antalet ombildningar, statsrådens parlamentariska bakgrund och hur lång tid det har tagit för Göran Persson att sammanställa sina regeringar. Vår metod har

ABS is the third objective of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) and the acronym for access to genetic resources and benefit-sharing, the legal-technical term designating the practice of collecting biological resources from nature. Rhetorically this practice is either designated as bio-prospecting or as biopiracy. The current regulation of ABS is found in Article 15 of the CBD. The imple

The church of Odarslöv is a partly medieval church just outside Lund. It is one of six churches in the parish of Torn which is small in number. Since 1990 the church has been closed due to damage by subsidence and danger of collapse, and is since 2002 officially cancelled. The parish does not need the church and is not willing to pay the vast amount that is needed to restore the church. The proble

Today our conception of the Middle Ages is accompanied by musicians who claim to play "in the old-fashioned way". Nevertheless reconstructions of a concept as abstract as music could be questioned. The purpose of this essay is to illuminate and discuss the conditions of reconstructed medieval music and its relation to the original tradition. What characterizes the music tradition of the
