This study was made to see how resettlement refugees from Iraq who came to Germany in 2009 experienced the reception. The study was made with grown-up, mentally and physically healthy refugees from Iraq, who through UNHCR came to Germany. Through interviews information was gathered and the outcome shows advantages and disadvantages in the reception Germany provided. Overall the result shows that t

The aim of our study was to investigate conceptions about gender, gender expression and sexuality among social work students. We did this by asking what differences in conceptions about gender, gender expression and sexuality are noticeable among the students. We also asked how the students’ experience that these conceptions appear throughout the educational program, and what importance they give

This study examines the thoughts and expectations of social work students regarding their future career. In order to investigate this, a questionnaire was handed out to social work students (N=203) attending their final semester of the social work program (socionomprogrammet) at Göteborgs universitet, Högskolan i Jönköping, Högskolan i Kristianstad, Linnéuniversitetet and Malmö Högskola. The quest

The field of particle physics is ever evolving. With the recent advent of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) it is possible that the long sought for Higgs boson is detected. While this is not certain even if it is found it is likely that it will need more precise methods of investigation. For this and other reasons, a new collider called the International Linear Collider (ILC) is being planned. This

Enligt den Europeiska konventionen för de mänskliga rättigheterna och de grundläggande friheterna (EKMR) har medlemsstaterna en skyldighet att garantera konventionens fri- och rättigheter till var och en som befinner sig inom deras jurisdiktion. Det är sedan länge klart att staterna främst har denna skyldighet inom sitt eget territorium. Europadomstolen har emellertid klargjort att EKMR i exceptioAccording to the European Convention on Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (ECHR) states have an obligation to secure, to everyone within their jurisdiction, the rights prescribed in the Convention. Already at the drafting of the ECHR, it was clear that the states mainly had this obligation within their own territories. However, the European Court of Human Rights (the Court) has found that the

Elderly care in Sweden is facing many challenges. In recent years it has been observed to be insufficient as many elderly rights have been encroached upon. One factor which has been determined to be important to meet all of the new demands is an effective and successful leadership. The intention of this study was to examine how middle managers in Swedish elderly care reflect and describe their mis

This thesis explores undocumented immigrants’ social space within the discourse of non-citizenship in the context of Sweden. With an aim to elucidating and characterizing their use and reorganization of, as well as access to and exclusion from the societal space, it touches upon the used spaces as well as their maintenance of everyday life within the same. The non-citizen of Sweden – the undocumen

In the Seve Nappe Complex on Mt. Grapesvare, Swedish Caledonides, coronitic dolerites and eclogites occur in psammitic and pelitic schists. The transition between them is a 200 m wide zone with small boudins of garnet amphibolite. That zone trends N95°E and does not coincide with any tectonic discontinuity. The intensity of deformation and the lithology of the host rock do not change at the transi

Summary: This study is a part of the project "Lithostratigraphy and glacial dynamics during the Pomerian Phase". The objective is to solve the problems concerning the deglaciation of the south Baltic area during the last glaciation. The Polish Baltic coast is under heavy erosion from the seawaves. Steep morainic cliffs, often more than 10 meters high, offer excellent sections. A clear di

Land is an important asset and redistribution of land is a sensitive subject in Colombia. Land issues in Colombia are complex and include political, social and economic aspects. Due to an on-going conflict people are being denied access to land. In Colombia there are between 3.3 and 4.9 million internally displaced persons that have been deprived of land. In a country where many base livelihoods o

Sölvesborgs kommun ser en viss osäkerhet i sin framtida vattenförsörjning. De har bland annat problem med hög salthalt i grundvattnet. Kommunen är därför intresserad av att finna ett nytt vattentäktsområde som komplement och kanske ersättning till deras befintliga täkter. Ett intressant sådant område ligger vid Siesjön strax norr om tätorten Sölvesborg. Här finns möjligheter att hitta en sedimentäThis investigation on geology and hydrogeology has been carried out in Sölvesborg, a municipality in the province of Blekinge in the south-east part of Sweden. The occurrence of salt groundwater in some of the existing wells within the region, has caused the local water-authority to look for a new water supply. One possible area for a new water supply is close to the lake Siesjön, north of Sölvesb

Summary: Manama Mission is a Lutheran mission station in the Gwanda District, Zimbabwe, that suffers from a shortage in water supply. Its only source of water at present is a sand dam in the nearby Tuli river. During June, July and August 1990 a ground water study was carried out at the mission. This was done by Patrich Holmström, Per Möller and Mats Svensson, students at University of Lund, Swede

Summary: This study deals with local vegetation and land use history contemporary with prehistory clearance cairns and stone walls in the area of Rösered, province of Västergötland, south-western Sweden. Pollen analysis of a humusrich layer buried below a stone wall was carried out. It revealed that: -the layer developed as mull, first in open woodland dominated by birch, later in grassland with

Summary: This sedimentological study was carried out within Theme B of the ESF associated programme PONAM (Polar North Atlantic Margins - Late Cenozoic Evolution). This part of the programme is focused on the glaciation history during the last interglacial-glacial cycle in the Scoresby Sund area, East Greenland, and the Svalbard archipelago. The main objective of Theme B is to compare the history

Summary: The investigated area - the parish of Baldringe lies c. 10 km north of Ystad in the province of Skåne, southern Sweden. The area is a part of the inner hummocky landscape. Samples for pollen analysis were taken in an alder fen, surrounded by pastures. The locality is named Skogshejdan, and is situated within the former outlying land to the village Baldringe. The main purpose of the study

In orogenic belts, the relations between basement and cover rocks are important because of the information they give about the nature and evolution of the belt. In the Scandinavian Caledonides, basement-cover contacts can be found in windows where Precambrian basement has been exposed in antiformal structures, due to the deep erosion level of the mountain chain. The Grong-Olden Culmination (NE of
