Esta dissertação analisa o processo de formação do estereótipo dos imigrantes haitianos no município de Lajeado, buscando descrever o papel do imigrante como um sujeito estrangeiro nas relações sociais, sendo aquele indivíduo na qual exerce funções importantes em um determinado contexto ao mesmo tempo em que é mal visto pela população local. Para compreender isso, apresenta-se as teorias migratórias para analisar a diáspora haitiana e como a partir de seu processo histórico, os haitianos buscaram na imigração, formas de identificação e ascensão social. Posteriormente demonstra-se como o Brasil tornou-se uma porta de entrada para esses imigrantes, qual foi o contexto para isso ocorrer. Adentrando então, na sua chegada ao Brasil, especificando o caso de Lajeado. Os dilemas que foram apresentados pela população local, como os acordos dos empresários e a contratação dos haitianos para a região sul do país, evento esse que ocasionou no estranhamento da população estabelecida com a chegada de um grupo estrangeiro indesejado que surge repentinamente na cidade. Esta dissertação aborda as condições que ocorrem para que grupos étnicos sejam racializados e dominados por grupos dominantes. Demonstrando como o caso dos imigrantes haitianos em ratifica que nos diversos contextos em que imigraram eles tornaram-se um grupo étnico estigmatizado e racializado. A dissertação visa enfatizar como a formação do estereótipo do imigrante haitiano na cidade ocorre a partir de dois vieses, o primeiro é que os haitianos foram racializados e o segundo foi a sua estigmatização por parte da população local estabelecida de Lajeado em suas relações sociais cotidianas. Em um primeiro momento a população local utilizou-se de categorias raciais já existentes sobre a imagem que elas têm do brasileiro negro para com os haitianos, mas a mesma foi ressignificada posteriormente através de um processo de categorização de um novo estereótipo para com esses imigrantes. Constatando que através de uma rede de fofocas de informações falsas e exageradas sobre os imigrantes haitianos foram transmitidas pela população estabelecida da cidade. Estas características dos haitianos que corroboraram para a formação do seu estereótipo na região. / This thesis analyzes the process of stereotyping of haitian immigrants in the city of Lajeado, seeking to describe the role of the immigrant as a stranger subject in social relations, being an individual in which performs important functions for a certain context at the same time that it’s bad seen by the local population. To understand this, this thesis presents migratory theories to understand the Haitian Diaspora and how from their historical process, the Haitians sought in immigration, forms of identification and social ascension. Later shown how Brazil has become a gateway for these immigrants, what was the context for this to occur. Entering then, upon their arrival in Brazil, specifying Lajeado’s case. The dilemmas presented by the local population, such as the agreements of the businessmen and the contracting of the Haitians immigrants to the southern region of the country, which caused the estrangement of the established population with the arrival of an unwanted stranger group that suddenly appears in the city. This thesis addresses the conditions that occur for ethnic groups were racialized and dominated by dominant groups. Demonstrating how the case of Haitian immigrants in Lajeado ratifies that in various contexts in which they immigrated they have been a stigmatized and racialized ethnic group. The thesis aims to emphasize how the formation of the stereotype of the Haitian immigrant in the city occurs from two biases, the first is that the Haitians were racialized and the second was their stigmatization by the established local population of Lajeado in their everyday social relations. At first, the local population used existing racial categories about the image they have of the Brazilian black people towards the Haitians, but it was late re-signified through a process of categorization of a new stereotype towards these immigrants. Noting that through a network of gossip of false and exaggerated information about Haitian immigrants were transmitted by the established population of the city. These characteristics of Haitians who corroborated to the formation of their stereotype in the region.

Studien syftar till att undersöka hur frivården i Sverige arbetar för villkorligt frigivnas återanpassning till samhället. Med återanpassning menas att individen efter att ha avtjänat av fängelsestraffet ska återgå till en icke-kriminell livsstil. Detta delas i studien upp i strukturella, sociala och individuella faktorer som kan påverka återanpassningen. Sex kvalitativa, semistrukturerade intervjuer med frivårdshandläggare, tillsammans med tidigare forskning om ämnet, ligger till grund för studien. En viktig del som lyfts upp i resultatet är att frivårdens egentliga huvudmål är att arbeta med att minska risken för återfall i brott, inte den enskildes återanpassning till samhället. Resultatet analyseras sedan i relation till tidigare forskning och Bronfenbrenners systemteori, Goldbergs avvikelsespiral samt Goffmans teori om stigmatisering. Detta eftersom tidigare forskning indikerar att personer som blivit dömda i hög grad riskerar att utsättas för både stämpling och stigmatisering. Slutsatsen som dras i studien är att även om frivården inte uttalat arbetar för individers återanpassning till samhället efter villkorlig frigivning så har de många insatser och program som kan främja en lyckad återanpassningsprocess. / The aim of the study is to examine and analyse how the probation offices in Sweden is working for the reintegration into society for conditionally released prisoners. In the studyreintegration means that the individual, after serving a prison sentence, should return to a non-criminal lifestyle. The factors which can affect the reintegration process is divided into structural, social and individual factors. In the study, six qualitative, semi-structured interviews with probation officers, together with previous research on the subject, form the basis of the study. An important part that is highlighted in the result is that the main purpose of the probation offices is to reduce the risk of relapse in crime, not the individual's reintegration into society. The result is then analysed in relation to the previous research, as well as Bronfenbrenner's system theory, Goldberg’s deviation spiral and Goffman's theory of stigmatization. This is because previous research indicates that people who have been convicted are at high risk of being both labelled and stigmatized. The conclusion drawn in the study is that although the probation officers do not expressly work for individuals' reintegration to society after conditional release, they have many alternatives of both interventions and programs that can promote a successful reintegration process.

Because of the socioeconomic and ethnic segregation in many Swedish towns, residents with different social backgrounds are often living in separate neighbourhoods.

Patienter med missbruksproblem upptar mycket av hälso- ochsjukvårdens platser och resurser. Det är därmed viktigt attsäkerställa att dessa patienter får god vård och belysa vilkafaktorer som kan inverka på omvårdnaden. Syftet var att belysasjuksköterskors attityder gentemot patienter medmissbruksproblem samt att beskriva hur mötet mellansjuksköterskor och dessa patienter ser ut. Det användes 17vetenskapliga artiklar som grund för detta arbete varav 11 varkvantitativa och sex var kvalitativa. Det framkom attsjuksköterskor ofta uppvisade negativa attityder gentemot patientermed missbruksproblematik och detta inverkade på omvårdnadenav patienterna. Det förekom även stigmatisering, stereotypiseringoch moralisering av patienter med missbruksproblem vilket leddetill att dessa patienter många gånger fick sämre vård.Sjuksköterskans omvårdnadsarbete ska präglas av etisktförhållningsätt och en humanistisk människosyn vilket försummasom negativa attityder gentemot patienter med missbruksproblemfår inverka på vården. Mer kvalitativ forskning gällandesjuksköterskors attityder gentemot patienter medmissbruksproblem efterfrågas. Dessutom krävs det merundervisning i sjuksköterskans grundutbildning och meryrkesrelaterad utbildning på sjuksköterskans arbetsplats gällandeomvårdnaden av patienter med missbruksproblem. / Patients with substance abuse problems occupy much of the bedsand resources of the health care. Therefore, it is important toensure that these patients receive proper care and highlight thefactors that may affect that care. The purpose of this literaturestudy was to illuminate nurses’ attitudes towards patients withsubstance abuse problems and describe the character of themeetings between nurses and these patients. As the basis for thispaper, 17 research articles were used, of them 11 articles werequantitative and six were qualitative. It was found that nurses oftenexhibited negative attitudes towards patients with substance abuseproblems and that this had an impact on the nursing care of thesepatients. Stigmatization, stereotyping and moralization of thesepatients were also detected and this often led to substandard care.Nursing care is characterized by an ethical approach and ahumanistic view that is overlooked if the negative attitudes ofnurses towards patients with substance abuse problems are allowedto affect care. More qualitative research on nurses’ attitudestowards patients with substance abuse problems is prompted.Furthermore, it is required more education in the undergraduatenursing schools and more occupational education at nurses’workplace about nursing care of patients with substance abuseproblems.

De arbetssökande som har intervjuats har beskrivit att ett arbete är oerhört viktigt, för att fylla vardagen med något meningsfullt och bidra med något till omvärlden.   I tidigare forskning och dagspress har vi funnit att det kan innebära problem att få komma in på den svenska arbetsmarknaden för den individ som har ett utländsktklingande namn. Tidigare forskning visar på att det är enklare att få komma på en arbetsintervju om du har ett svensktklingande namn jämfört med ett utländsktklingande namn. Det vi vill lyfta fram i denna studie är de subjektiva upplevelserna respondenter upplever kring att vara arbetslös samt om deras namn kan utgöra ett hinder för att få komma på arbetsintervju. Denna kvalitativa studie syftar till att ta reda på om ett utländsktklingande namn har negativ påverkan på att få komma på arbetsintervju, huruvida de berörda i studien uppfattar namnets betydelse och sina egna möjligheter på arbetsmarknaden. Sex kvalitativa intervjuer har skett på Arbetsförmedlingen i Örebro. En har genomförts med en personal vid Arbetsförmedlingen och de andra fem har gjorts med individer med utländsktklingande namn som idag söker arbete.  Vårt urval har bestått av att intervjua arbetssökande individer i Örebro kommun.      Intervjuerna hade fokus på att undersöka huruvida ett utländskt namn har påverkan på individens möjligheter att få komma på arbetsintervju.   I intervjuerna har det dock framkommit att de arbetssökande anser att deras namn har viss betydelse när det gäller att få komma på arbetsintervju, ett svenskt namn väger tyngre än ett utländskt. Intervjupersonerna har påpekat att det kan vara andra attribut som spelar roll, exempelvis kultur, utbildning, utseende eller språkproblem. Arbetsgivare tar då det säkra före det osäkra, att kalla de med svenskt namn före de med utländsktklingande namn att få komma på arbetsintervju. / The applicants have described that having a job is extremely important to fill out the everyday life with something meaningful and to make a contribution to the society. From previous research and in the daily press, we have seen that in the labor market that it can be a problem if an individual has a foreign name. If you have a Swedish conformed name, it gets easier towards being called to a work interview. This study implied to study individuals with non-Swedish conformed names and their alleged difficulties with having a work interview. To contact the interview persons, help have been handed from the Work Employment Agency in Örebro, Sweden. Six qualitative interviews have been performed; five of these have been with individuals with foreign names, that currently are searching for work and one of these has been with one of the staff at the agency. The interviews have revealed that the name had some significance when it comes to being called to a work interview. A Swedish conformed name outweighs a foreign name in some cases. During the interviews focus was laid on how the applicants described their feelings and experiences of being declined a work interview because of their foreign names.  The interviewees pointed out that there may be other attributes that are important; such as culture, education, appearance or language difficulties. Employers will then rather be safe than sorry, therefore, they call those with Swedish conformed names instead of those with foreign names.
