Sweden is a multicultural country in which about 20 percent of the population has a foreign background. People who belong to different population groups live here and have diverse cultural backgrounds and lifestyles. This means that the Swedish tourism and hospitality industry today communicates with a very diversified Swedish target group.This report, which is the result of a commissioned researc
Bakgrund: Den kulturella mångfalden i Sverige har ökat under de senaste decennierna, främst som en konsekvens av migration. Denna utveckling påverkar hälso- och sjukvården, som möter en alltmer varierad befolkning. Socioekonomiska och kulturella skillnader har en inverkan på tillgången till vård och på vårdens kvalitet. Det anses nödvändigt att vården anpassas för att kunna bemöta de skiftande beh
In Swedish higher formal aesthetic education, students from ethnic minorities are significantly underrepresented. This also seems to be the case in music education for younger children. Accordingly, the relationship between music education and the ethnic diversity of the contemporary Swedish society, not reflected in the selection of students to the Swedish music and culture schools, is of vital iIn Swedish higher formal aesthetic education, students from ethnic mi-norities are significantly underrepresented.

Immigrants and children of immigrants are statistically lumped together into a category of "person with foreign background". Blatte is a degrading and violating word when directed at immigrants by Swedes. The aim of my essay was to test to what extent the Swedish term "blatte" could be qualified as an ethnicity in the sense that young people with foreign background born between
En anledning till varför vissa grupper av individer födda i Sverige med utländsk bakgrund har en svagare arbetsmarknadsposition än individer vars föräldrar är födda i Sverige kan vara att de har en negativ bild av möjligheterna på arbetsmarknaden och därför avstår från humankapitalinvesteringar som skulle öka deras faktiska chanser. För att undersöka om så är fallet krävs en kartläggning av indivi
The concept of identity and a sense of belonging in a multicultural- and multiethnic society are complicated. The aim of this study was to examine how young Swedish-born women of foreign origin perceive their identity when they belong to two or several cultures. Six young women with foreign origin were interviewed through partly themed and semi-structured interviews to share their experience on ho
The aim of this study was to examine patterns among different groups of juvenile victims of offences against the person and crimes against their property by comparing victims in ninth grade with foreign background to those with Swedish background in Skåne. The study concentrates on exposure to threat, mugging, theft, physical abuse and sexual abuse. We conducted a statistical analysis based on a c
Tidigare forskning har belyst problemet med medias negativa bild av människor med utländsk bakgrund. Alla människor konfronteras med medias bild av invandrare, vilket skapar en invandraridentitet där man ständigt påminns om de negativa effekterna av att vara av utländsk härkomst. Det är utifrån denna problematik som vi valt att basera vår undersökning på. Vår huvudfråga är: Hur påverkar stigmatise
This study investigates the factors influencing the intentions of onward migration from Sweden among individuals with a foreign background. Using a quantitative approach, the study examines how levels of integration, belief in the future, social belonging, and educational and occupational status relate to considerations of leaving the country. The analysis is based on data collected through a web-
Den 7 juli 2006 meddelades dom i HD i det första fallet i svensk rätt där surrogatmoderskap hade förekommit. I fallet hade barnets far återkallat samtycket som krävdes för att den genetiska modern skulle få adoptera barnet och bli dess rättsliga förälder. Surrogatmoderskap är en metod som används av barnlösa par, när kvinnan i paret av någon anledning inte kan fullfölja graviditeten. Surrogatmoder
There is a widely regarded issue in Sweden, where its residents are categorized based on both their racial- and foreign affiliation, which may contribute to an individual's social exclusion from society. The categorization is based on a social construction with two opposite poles, “Swedes” and “non-swedes”, which causes concern for individuals with a foreign background as they become victims o
