Bakgrund: Inflammatorisk tarmsjukdom (IBD) innefattar sjukdomarna Ulcerös kolit och Morbus Crohn. Miljöfaktorer och förändrade kostvanor tros vara anledningar till att IBD-fallen ökat i USA och västra Europa på kort tid. I Sverige drabbas cirka 500 personer av Morbus Crohn varje år och Ulcerös kolit drabbar ca 900 personer per år. Sjukdomen yttrar sig i fysiska symtom som diarré, smärta och viktnedgång men påverkar även individen psykosocialt. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva människors upplevelser av att leva med inflammatorisk tarmsjukdom samt att presentera vilken undersökningsgrupp som beskrivits i de inkluderade vetenskapliga artiklarna. Metod: Studien är en beskrivande litteraturstudie där 11 kvalitativa artiklar användes. Databaserna PubMed och Cinahl användes för att söka artiklar. Sökorden som användes var: Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, Qualitative, Everyday life och Lived experiences. Huvudresultat: IBD är en kronisk sjukdom. Fysiska symtom som illamående, viktnedgång, smärta och trötthet vilket även ses som ett psykiskt symtom. Oro, depression och dålig självkänsla upplevdes också. Sjukdomen visade sig påverka individens vardagsliv, kostvanor, familjeliv, och sociala relationer. Alla inkluderade artiklar presenterade undersökningsgruppen. Slutsats: IBD blir allt vanligare i världen. Symtomen är både fysiska och psykosociala och påverkar den drabbades vardagsliv, sociala liv och kosthållning. Sjuksköterskan möter en stor utmaning i att kunna bemöta och vårda dessa patienter då varje enskild individ har olika upplevelser av samma diagnos. / Background: Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) includes the diseases Ulcerative Colitis and Morbus Crohn. Environmental factors and changing diets are thought to be reasons for IBD cases has increased in the US and Western Europe in a short time. It is in Sweden about 500 people affected of Morbus Crohn every year and Ulcerative colitis affects about 900 people per year. The disease has physical symptoms such as diarrhea, pain and weight loss, but also affects an individual psychosocial. Aim: The aim was to describe people's experiences of living with inflammatory bowel disease, and to present the study group as described in the included articles. Methods: This study is a descriptive literature study and 11 qualitative articles were used. PubMed and Cinahl were used to search for articles. Keywords used were: Inflammatory Bowel Diseases, Qualitative, Everyday Life and Lived Experiences. Main results: IBD is a chronic disease. Physical symptoms such as nausea, pain and fatigue which is also seen as a mental symptoms. The disease was found to influence the individual's daily life, eating habits, family life, and social relationships. All included articles presented the study group. Conclusion: IBD are becoming more common in the world. The symptoms are both physical and psychosocial and affects the afflicted person everyday life, social life and diet. Nurses face a big challenge in being able to confronting and care for these patients, since each individual has different perceptions of the same diagnosis.

Das Internet kann auf vielfältige Weise in den (häuslichen) Alltag integriert werden - die vorliegende, durchaus interessante Studie analysiert hauptsächlich auf der Basis von problemzentrierten Interviews und einer qualitativen Inhaltsanalyse (nach MAYRING) die (aktiven) Aneignungsmodi und die Integration dieses Mediums in den Alltag. Im Mittelpunkt der Studie stehen die Effekte der Nutzungs- und Kommunikationsformen des Internets, aufgegliedert in zeitliche, räumliche, inhaltliche und soziale Dimensionen. Im Besonderen werden die Wirkungen der Internetnutzung in Bezug auf Beziehungsstrukturen zwischen (Lebens-) Partner/innen und Geschlechterverhältnisse fokussiert. Dabei wird der Frage nachgegangen, inwieweit Ungleichheitsstrukturen auch im Bereich des going online reproduziert werden. Durch die Auswahl von jeweils zwölf Paaren in Deutschland und Australien werden Veränderungsprozesse in zwei Ländern verglichen, die sich in einer etwas differenten Phase des Diffusions- und Integrationsgrads befinden. Die Autorin verweist darauf, dass gerade qualitativ orientierte Studien die sich wandelnden Kommunikationsprozesse und Interaktionsstrukturen im häuslichen Alltag in den Blick nehmen können - das wird mit der Studie gezeigt, auch wenn "nur" ein eher explorativer Anspruch deutlich wird.

Everyday objects inspire and inform what I do. The personal histories and associations we may have with ordinary things are of great personal interest to me. Often times, these items reflect the social class, education, and background of the owners. I am drawn to these objects and the possibility of elevating them in a way that transcends their implied meanings (their worth, importance, and status). The transformation of the mundane is a method of working that allows associations to remain intact while bringing new meaning and perspective to the object. My method of working becomes an alchemic process aimed at turning the ordinary into "art" which is second only to turning used cooking oil into fuel to run your car, and maybe third to turning lead into gold.

Trying to remember is a form of forgetting. Memory fades, changes meaning, and disappears over time. While trying to find other ways to preserve stories about my family, it occurred to me that I could recreate what I remember in clay. I am creating collections of physical mementos of the memories that fill my head, focusing mainly on my childhood. Remembering is in itself an act of forgetting, and thus this is my memory preservation kit. I am recording memories of my family for posterity in clay before I have a chance to forget.

Presented thesis deals with the everyday life of the 16th and 17th century in the royal town of Slaný in the central Bohemia. It recounts the eventful history of the city from its prehistoric beginnings to the present. Focus is the fourth and fifth chapter. The fourth chapter discusses the type sof criminal offenses and punishment for them in the early modern period grant. This includes offenses against life and healthy, against property, against morality and honor. This section we also learn about dishonest professions. The fifth chapter describes the everyday concerns of people at the time - the need to belong, cocern for the livelihood, concern for subsistence but also financial matters. Full text concludes humorous incident that happened in 1604.

The history of everyday life is an interesting historical branch, which brings the researcher a lot of information about family, work, entertainment, problems and other things that surround everyone and every day. In the same way, these things have influenced lives of our ancestors. The fascination with ordinary lives of early modern history is actually a desire to get to know oneself. Despite the fact that the outlook on everyday things may have changed during the centuries, what has not changed were the topics. The libri testimoniorum are a more than suitable source of information for everyday life research. Owing to the testimonies of the witnesses of the particular trials, the books unwittingly reveal many details about the life of early modern towns. Studies of these books bring motivation for researching not only the everyday history, but also culture and mentality history. Last but not least, it is important to mention research into criminality of early modern towns.

The thesis deals with the theme of social groups of individuals, historically known as "disreputable people", among whom the executioners, knackers and bailiffs belonged. The main aim is to capture the social status of these people, who are historiographically considered as the individuals standing on the lowest rung of the social ladder. Detailed analysis of the sources of urban provenance is to show both the interaction of this group and its individuals with the rest of the urban community, especially with individuals considered as honorable, and also the everyday life of disreputable people in the urban environment. The thesis is divided into three parts, which are further thematically divided. The first part shows the theoretical and methodological level with an emphasis on previous studies dealing with the phenomenon of honor and also issues of discreditable people and of capital punishment. The following two parts contain an analysis of the situation of dishonourable people in the East Bohemian town of Pardubice in 17th century and because of the necessary comparison of regional differences, there was also the research of analogous conditions of another East Bohemian town Náchod included. Inside the urban society the professional functions of these individuals, their property background,...

This thesis innovates on existing literature on the Transition movement by relinquishing stock academic definitions of its ends and means, which purportedly spell out what Transition 'is'. In its stead, it approaches Transition as phenomenon, namely as an evolving socio-material formation that proliferates a cultural repertoire to sustain a growing range of concerted everyday activities. This is the difference between an instrumental focus, whereby Transition is reduced to a strategy which is oriented towards an unchanging programmatic definition, and an orientational one; the latter attuned to the contingent process by which a movement expresses form and orientation in emergent fashion. The monograph and the introductory chapter contribute to this task in different ways. Everything Gardens and Other Stories undertakes a rich description of various practical realms of Transition and, to capture the coming into being of a phenomenon, it pays particular attention to its developmental trajectory. This entails focusing on the generative movement of the culture of Transition, as it emerges from the attempt to address embodied disquiets originally elicited by information about peak oil and climate change. That initial focus, however, forms merely a station along a path in which new sources of anxiety find validation and prompt further cultural production. The monograph also describes the tensions arising in the process, as a growing body of discursive and material resources have to negotiate an accommodation, in order to become reciprocally recognisable as participant parts enfolded in a common cultural milieu. The introductory chapter supports this account by fleshing out a methodological paradigm that helps direct attention to the unfolding of a socio-material phenomenon in its dilemmatic moments and continual negotiations. For this purpose, starting from canonical sources in phenomenology, it goes on to situate the 'unfolding' of a phenomenon in the proliferation of entanglements between actors, human and nonhuman. In the 'mattering' of a phenomenon so understood, dilemmatic moments call forth an ethical questioning and an ontological politics immanent to the very process of cultural production. This, it is submitted, is precisely how an orientational focus allows to access Transition as phenomenon, beyond the bounds of academic definitions.

[pt] A presente dissertação busca empreender uma discussão acerca da sociedade contemporânea a partir de uma perspectiva geográfica. Mais precisamente, se debruça sobre a mútua imbricação entre o sujeito e a sociedade que se constituem, enquanto totalidades, por meio do espaço-tempo; o que perpassa necessariamente, no período da globalização onde a cidade e o urbano assumem uma relevância seminal, pela compreensão acerca do espaço urbano no que tange as (inter) ações, múltiplas escalas, mediações, materialidades e representações produzidas e vivenciadas de forma imediata pelo sujeito no cotidiano, sobretudo, através de suas dimensões. No entanto, sob a hegemonia do sistema capitalista, tal dinâmica sócio-espacial é dilacerada ao ser impregnada de relações mercantilistas, individualistas, reducionistas, abstrato-concretas, de dominação e de exploração, desencadeando diversas e intensas problemáticas, conflitos e contradições sociais. De modo a se contrapor e contestar tal ordem totalitária, se objetiva analisar a importância do espaço urbano no processo de concretização do sujeito enquanto totalidade, em meio ao poder alienante/alienado do capital e, ao mesmo tempo, em meio a insatisfações, insurgências e (re) existências teóricas e práticas em face de tal poder hegemônico. Vislumbra-se, assim, o sujeito em concretização e o papel do espaço nesse processo: ora posto como um instrumento fragmentado, homogeneizado e hierarquizado de poder e de alienação imprescindível à reprodução do capital; ora concebido, percebido e vivido como uma via/ elo que possibilita horizontes, como o Direito à Cidade, e a reunião e a apropriação dos elementos materiais e imateriais necessários à reprodução da vida. Em suma, esse é o contexto e o desafio no qual o sujeito total vivência a vida cotidiana em sociedade. / [en] This dissertation undertakes a discussion about contemporary society from a geographical perspective. More precisely, it focuses on the mutual imbrications between subject and society that are constituted, as entities, through space-time, which necessarily permeates the period of globalization where city and urban take over a remarkable importance for the understanding of urban space in relation to (inter) actions, multiple scales, mediation, materiality and representations produced and lived on an immediate way by subject in everyday life, especially through its dimensions. However, under the hegemony of the capitalist system, such a socio-spatial dynamic is destroyed when it is impregnated with mercantilist, individualistic, reductionist, abstract-concrete domination and exploitation relations, triggering numerous and intense problems, social conflicts and contradictions. In order to oppose and challenge such totalitarian order, the objective is to analyze the importance of urban space in the process of composing a subject as an entity, under the alienating / alienated power of capital and at the same time, among the dissatisfaction, insurgencies and (re) theoretical stocks and practices in the face of such a hegemonic power. Thus, it is possible to identify the subject in action and the role of space in this case: sometimes as a fragmented, homogenized and hierarchical instrument of power and alienation essential to the reproduction of capital; sometimes conceived, perceived and lived as a route / link that enables horizons, as the Right to the City, and meeting and appropriation of the tangible and intangible elements necessary for the reproduction of life. In summary, this is the context and the challenge in which the total subject, living a everyday life in society.
