Health care providers (HCPs) are facing unique facilitators and barriers t

År 1994 trädde Lagen om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade (1993:387) (LSS) som ett resultat av regeringens utredning.

Surrogacy is a practice that raises ethical concerns, and is even illegal in many countries. In Sweden, surrogacy is not explicitly illegal, but the practice is deemed unallowed in a looser sense. Prostitution however, or more specifically the purchase of sexual services, which raises many of the same concerns regarding women’s autonomy and objectification, is banned explicitly by Swedish law. The

Bakgrund: Barn och ungdomars ålder påverkar hur de förstår och hanterar sitt syskons cancersjukdom. Tidigare forskning har visat att syskon till cancersjuka barn löper större risk att utveckla svårigheter, men deras egna erfarenheter har ofta inte fått tillräcklig uppmärksamhet. Genom ett familjecentrerat bemötande och den mellanmänskliga teorin kan vårdpersonal ta större hänsyn till de unga anhörBackground: The age of children and adolescents affects how they understand and cope with their sibling's cancer. Previous research has shown that siblings of children with cancer are at greater risk of developing difficulties, but their own experiences have often not received sufficient attention. Through a family-centered approach and interpersonal theory, healthcare professionals can take g

This thesis analyzed the portrayal of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system in South Korea by “The Korea Times” and the “Global Times," focusing on its political, economic, and cultural implications.

Currently, many Global South countries face an unprecedented debt crisis with large portions of their spending going to debt repayments. This financial restrain hinders their capacity to address basic needs and ecological challenges, particularly as climate change exacerbates vulnerabilities. To provide a solution for this, The Nature Conservancy (TNC) launched their Nature Bonds Program aimed at

This thesis uses norm research and a developed theoretical framework to find the ‘climate policy norm’ that affects and creates the argumentation for the European Commission's climate policy measures, and puts it on the life cycle of norms for the years 2019 and 2024. Through a comparative discourse analysis and qualitative data study, this paper develops the theoretical understanding of norm

Drawing on Maarten Hajer’s argumentative discourse analysis (ADA), the paper identifies dom

It takes a borderless approach to infer the perception of the past in the Asian continent, filling the gap in a field mostly dominated by case studies. Asian historical movies are used as the data source of the analysis, following the historiophoty framework designed by White(1988) and Rosenstone (198

Identi- fications of these trends and preparedness for the potential impact they will have on the future truck freight system will be paramount for both incumbents and new actors in this system

Alla kvinnor i Sverige har rätt till ett liv fritt från könsbaserat våld i nära relation. Sedan början av 1990-talet har den svenska staten sett det som ett prioriterat jämställdhetsmål att utrota allt könsbaserat våld för att uppnå full jämställdhet mellan könen. Dock finns det en grupp med kvinnor som tvingas välja mellan att stå ut med våld i nära relation eller att bli utvisad. Flertalet rappoAll women in Sweden have the right to a life free from gender-based violence in close relationships. Since the early 1990s, the Swedish government sees the goal to eradicate all gender-based violence as a priority, to achieve full equality between the sexes. However, there is a group of women who are forced to choose between putting up with domestic violence or being deported. Several reports from
