Using qualitative content analysis, this study investigated how male victims of heterosexual intimate partner violence is presente
År 1994 trädde Lagen om stöd och service till vissa funktionshindrade (1993:387) (LSS) som ett resultat av regeringens utredning. Utredningen, som fick namnet Handikappreformen, kom fram till att det fanns stora klyftor mellan människor med omfattande funktionshinder och människor utan funktionshinder. Dessutom noterade utredningen att de insatser som erhölls enligt socialtjänsten och hälso- och s
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

Antalet olovliga nyttjanden av ensamrätter har ökat under de senaste åren. En immateriell rättighet som inte kan skyddas mot intrång saknar i många avseenden värde. Tillgången av verkningsfulla och effektiva sanktioner är därför en nödvändighet. År 1994 infördes en ny sanktionsform i varumärkes-, mönster- och upphovsrättslagen, nämligen vitesförbud. Sanktionsformen skulle förse rättighetsinnehavarThe number of cases of infringements of intellectual property rights has increased in recent years. An exclusive right, which cannot be protected, lacks value in many aspects. Access to efficient and effective sanctions is therefore essential for rightsholders. In 1994, a new sanction in the Swedish copyright-, design- and trademark act was adopted. The Swedish legislator intended to provide right
Through previous research, several factors concerning the lack of knowledge among professionals regarding their work with transgender clients have been identified. A need for more counseling support for transgender clients has also been identified. The following study aims to respond to these shortcomings by studying professionals in Sweden who have experience working with clients who are explorin
Language is a protected ground for discrimination internationally, but not in Sweden, although minority politics recognize language as a human right. This thesis focuses on Swedish Finns, one of Sweden's national minorities. As minority rights exist internationally, nationally, and locally, this thesis will analyze official documents from the Council of Europe, the Swedish state, and the Equal

After the very first boy group talent show, Idol Producer (
Uppsatsen handlar om barnets rätt att komma till tals i vårdnadsmål. Rätten fastställs i barnkonventionens artikel 12. Artikeln gäller som lag i Sverige sedan 2020.

Internet of Things (IoT), det vill säga fysiska objekt med inbyggd elektronik som kan kopplas upp mot internet och styras eller utbyta data över nätet, har idag blivit en självklar del i många personers vardag. Det kan vara allt från hälsoarmband och kylskåp, till glödlampor och termostater. Som förutspås har vi dock ännu inte sett det stora genombrottet för denna teknik och vad den kan komma att The Internet of Things (IoT), i.e. physical objects with embedded electronics that can be connected to the internet and be controlled or exchange data over the network, has become an integral part of many people's daily lives. IoT devices can be anything from fitness trackers and refrigerators to light bulbs and thermostats. However, as is being predicted, we have yet to see the major breakthr
Potential drug to reduce bacterial survival Recently there has been an increase in common bacterial infections being tolerant to available antibiotics, thus leading to a possible health crisis. Bacteria has developed tolerance through a small molecule called ppGpp, which is highly produced during a stress response (e.g., antibiotics). This molecule is responsible for the shutdown of a variety of
The Swedish forestry debate is deeply polarised concerning the issue of the meaning and implications of sustainable forestry. This study explores how competing discourses on sustainability are constructed within the Swedish forestry debate and which actors contribute to their articulation and dissemination. Drawing on Maarten Hajer’s argumentative discourse analysis (ADA), the paper identifies dom

The Swedish sickness insurance system is found to not sufficiently support individ- uals in frequent nee
