Vad är hälsa för kvinnliga internflyktingar i Georgien. En kvalitativ studie om begreppet hälsa bland kvinnliga internflyktingar i Georgien. Examensarbete, 15 högskolepoäng. Omvårdnad, Malmö högskola: Hälsa och Samhälle, Utbildningsområde omvårdnad, 2010. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka begreppet hälsa bland kvinnliga georgiska internflyktingar (Internal Displaced People, IDP). Detta är en empirisk studie med en kvalitativ metod som bygger på semi-strukturerade intervjuer. Sammanlagt sju IDP kvinnor i staden Zugdidi i Georgien deltog. Dataanalysen var inspirerad av Burnard's (1991) innehållsanalys, och resulterade i två kategorier: 1) Upplevelsen av kontroll med underrubrikerna Social situation, Familj och Avsaknad av pengar och 2) Upplevelsen av identitet med underrubrikerna Ursprung, Anpassningsförmåga och Självkänsla. Dessa är alla avgörande faktorer för att deltagarna skall kunna leva ett liv med värdighet och kontroll; båda viktiga faktorer för hälsan. Marmots teori om sociala bestämningsfaktorer för hälsa har influerat dataanalys och kategorisering. Ytterligare studier i detta ämne skulle vara av värde för att vägleda sjukvården i hur man bättre kan arbeta förebyggande samt möta behoven hos kvinnliga internflyktingar samt internationella flyktingar.

  • Fighting for Girls
    ACKNOWLEDGMENTS 1 INTRODUCTION Meda Chesney-Lind and Nikki Jones A decade into the twenty-fi rst century, it seems like the news about girls is increasingly alarming. Of course, we’ve always had “bad” girls. Longfel- low, no less, penned, that “when she was good she was very good indeed, and when she was bad, she was horrid” (Longfellow, 2004). In the waning decades of the twentieth century, though, the public was jolted by media images of “gangster” girls, every bit as menacing as their urban male coun- terparts, often pictured glaring at the world over the barrel of a gun. The new century also introduced us to suburban “mean” girls, manipulating and backstabbing their way to popularity, and now, only a few years later, it seems as though our mean girls have suddenly turned violent. YouTube videos of brawling cheerleaders make local and national news and “go viral” on the Web where they are viewed by thousands. Do we really need to worry about girls causing “savagery in the suburbs” (Meadows & Johnson, 2003: 37), as a 2003 headline in Newsweek warned? It would certainly seem so if you picked up recent trade books like See Jane Hit (Garbarino, 2006) and Sugar and Spice and No Longer Nice (Prothrow-Stith & Spivak, 2005), which purport to advise parents and teachers on what to do about girls’ violence while also fueling public unease about modern girlhood. Given the high level of public and academic interest in girls’ use of violence and aggression, it is actually remarkable that so little careful academic work has been made available to those concerned with the facts and not the hype.

Miller University of Delaware Michelle L. Meloy Rutgers University Following changes in law enforcement policies that encourage or mandate arrest of domestic violence offenders, a concomitant increase in women arrested and mandated to batterer treatment programs has resulted. Most research findings, however, suggest that heterosexual intimate violence is gendered, with abuse, power, and control wielded by men over their female partners, and that when women use violence, it is typically in self- defense or for nonaggressive reasons. However, few studies have investigated the female batterer treatment programs and the context of the women’s use of violence.

Drawing on the work of Hannah Arendt and Jean Elshtain, the Q4 chapter argues that Whedon’s exploration of the relationship between women and violence suggests ways in which to reconsider the consequences and responsibilities—as well as potentials—for women’s use of violent means to oppose systemic oppression.

  • When She Was Bad 1St Edition Kindle
    WHEN SHE WAS BAD 1ST EDITION PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Gabrielle Brant Freeman | 9781941209479 | | | | | When She Was Bad 1st edition PDF Book These drawings of rabbits and mice were sold to illustrate books of verses. This sounds right up my street. In fact the whole book is so poorly written, it would not surprise me to learn that Ms Cohen is a teenager writing her first novel. Also good. Although sympathetically portrayed, this part of the story did make for uncomfortable reading at times. The book is full of twists and turned and I had enormous fun trying to work out who would be the victim and who would be the perpetrator. It is also a story of the long term ramifications of child abuse. On one side we have a dark event from the past, on the other we have a group of people who work together in seeming harmony until an ambitious and ruthless boss upsets their status quo. The second strand tells the story of the sales department of London based company Mark Hamilton Recruitment and begins with former boss Gill drowning her sorrows in the aftermath of her dismissal. That means this is the first version of the text published. See for yourself A late starter to fiction - and to other things besides - she has now written four novels. When she is alerted by a friend that some When She Was Bad is a two strand story — initially beginning in America but with the main chapters set around a London recruitment agency. This review was originally posted on my book blog.

  • Slayage 1: Wandless
    William Wandless Undead Letters: Searches and Researches in Buffy the Vampire Slayer Buffy, I have volumes of lore, of prophecies and predictions. But I don’t have an instruction manual. We feel our way as we go along. And I must admit, as a Slayer you’re doing pretty well. —Rupert Giles, in “Never Kill a Boy on the First Date” (1) Buffy the Vampire Slayer banks on a very simple premise: folks dig research. Admittedly, they also love brushes with the supernatural, snappy dialogue, trendy clothes, pretty people, sweltering smoochies, and the occasional bleached-blonde British vampire, but nothing pulls them in like an overhead shot of a man in tweed thumbing through a dusty, leather-bound book. Sadly, squeezing all the requisite trappings of vampire-slaying into forty-five minutes of television time places severe limitations on how much research work can be depicted in each episode. To keep viewers coming back for more, the series teases them with only a few scant moments of tantalizing page-turning per week. (2) Over the course of four seasons, however, the nature of those moments—and the surrounding narrative content which reflects and is reflected in them—has changed dramatically.
