Studiens syfte har varit att undersöka om egenskaper och omständigheter kring brottet, som kan kopplas till uppfattningen om det ideala offret, påverkar utfallet av polisers självständiga bedömningar av brott av hederskaraktär. För att studera detta har en kvantitativ metod tillämpas samt en logistisk regression av data baserad på identifierade brott av hederskaraktär i Dalarna genomförts. Studiens resultat visade att 11 variabler som har anknytning till egenskaper hos målsägare och gärningsperson samt omständigheter inom brottet och utredningen, såsom kön, ålder och anmälningstillfälle, har en signifikant betydelse för utfallet av bedömningarna. Studiens viktigaste slutsats är att det inte går att urskilja något tydligt samband mellan utfallet av uppmärksammade brott med hederskaraktär och uppfattningar som beskrivs i teorin om det idealiska offret. / "The ideal victims of honour-related crime" The purpose of this study is to examine if characteristics of victim and perpetrator and circumstances involving the crime, which are described in the theory of "the ideal victim", have an influence on the outcome of police employee’s independent assessment on crimes of honour character. In order to examine this a quantitative method has been applied and a logistic regression has been made of data based on identified crimes whit honour as a motive. The results of the study have shown that eleven variables which has a connection to characteristics and circumstances involving the crime and the investigation, as gender, age and circumstances surrounding reporting the crime, have a significant influence on the outcome. The study’s main conclusion is that no clear connection can be drawn between the outcome of assessments on crimes with an honour motive and the perception of the ideal victim.

Dans notre étude, nous nous intéressons aux personnes âgées originaires du Maghreb qui vivent en France, pendant leur retraite, après avoir immigrés et continuent à vivre en foyer SONACOTRA (devenue ADOMA). Plus spécifiquement, nous avons sélectionné des hommes considérés comme isolés car bien que mariés dans leur pays d’origine, avec à leur charge femme et enfants, ils ont une vie de célibataire, ici, en France.Nous avons utilisé l’entretien semi-directif et l’Echelle Dépressive Gériatrique comme outils d’évaluation. Nous avons sélectionné six foyers dans la région Rhône-Alpes pour leur pourcentage élevé de maghrébins parmi leurs résidents. Les entretiens se sont déroulés de Février 2007 à Mars 2009.La passation de l’échelle de dépression gériatrique a eu lieu une semaine avant leur départ pour le pays d’origine et une semaine après leur retour. Elle a permis de confirmer l’importance de la dépression dans notre échantillon. Et, une diminution des scores (donc une amélioration de la thymie) entre les deux passations est notée pour la majorité des sujets. A partir de cette simple observation, nous pouvons déduire que les voyages au pays d’origine ont un effet revalorisant sur ces hommes comme nous l’avions émis dans nos hypothèses.Il apparait, à ce propos, que c’est la réussite d’un projet, au pays d’origine qui a un effet positif sur leur moral. Ce faisant ils ont recréé un ancrage professionnel dans leur pays au moment où celui-ci est perdu, en France. Cette réalisation est, de plus, l’aboutissement du projet d’origine puisque leur but premier était de travailler, ici, pour construire là-bas. / In our study, we are interested in the elderly people originating in the Maghreb who live in France, during their retirement, after having immigrant and continue to live in hearth SONACOTRA (become ADOMA). More specifically, we selected men considered as isolated because although married in their country of origin, with the responsability a woman and children, they have a single life, here, in France.We used semi-directing maintenance and the Geriatric Depressive Scale as evaluation tools. We selected six hearths in the Rhône-Alpes area for their high percentage of Maghrebians among their residents. The talks proceeded from February 2007 to March 2009.The signing of the scale of geriatric depression took place one week before their departure for the country of origin and one week after their return. It allowed to confirm the importance of the depression in our sample. And, a decrease of the scores (thus an improvement of the thymie) between both signings is noted for the majority of the subjects. From this simple observation, we can deduce that the journeys in the country of origin have an effect's revalorizing on these men as we had emitted it in our hypothese. It appears, on this subject, that it is the success of a project, in the country of origin which has a positive effect on their moral. By doing this they recreated an anchoring professional's in their country at the time when this one is lost, in France. This realization is, moreover, the result of the project of origin since their primary goal was to work, here, to build over there.

The purpose of this essay is to explore high school and collage school counselors knowledge and experience of honour related violence and repression. Our study is based on a qualitative method with interviews. The main question in our study is to examine the school counselors education in how to provide support to the exposed adolescents. We have conducted six interviews with school counselors in the southern Sweden. We have used a semi structured interview technique with questionnaires that have been a support to us during the interviews. The results of our study showed that some of our respondents knew that they had limited education and knowledge in honour related violence and also that they wanted more experience about the problemarea. Other respondents said that they had experience enough about the problemar ea. The results also show that the respondents believe that there is more honour related problems in the adolescents families than what the counselors find out about, and that some of the respondents didn´t even know in wich way they could provide help to theese students.

To accomplish the purpose of this thesis an examination of the hermeneutical method expounded by Athanasius will be made. There are three books that comprise Contra Arianos so the progression of this thesis will follow the progression of the stated Athanasian work. This thesis will also review the relevant passages that Athanasius utilizes to present his case for the Eternal Sonship of Jesus Christ. This review will adequately demonstrate the Athanasian Trinitarian concept of eternal, functional subordination of the Son to the Father. The thesis will also review the word ”homoousios” in order to support the conclusions of Contra Arianos. The word ”homoousios” was the term that became the official recognized position of orthodox Christology at the Council of Nicea. The need for such a review arises from the academic concern that the word ”homoousios” may exclude the idea of functional subordination. A review of this word (along with its history) seems appropriate. However, the conclusion (and defense of that conclusion) that will be presented is that homoousios is not mutually incompatible with the idea of ”functional subordination” in a temporal or eternal relationship. This term and concept will adequately demonstrate that an eternal, functional subordination relationship exists between the Father and Son from the Athanasian point of view. Historical and background studies, which will help interpret and clarify cultural meanings, will also be employed to enhance the study of this thesis. Finally, certain conclusions will be presented showing the results of the study. The conclusions will attempt to answer questions that have undoubtedly arisen in the mind of the informed reader of ancient theology and may help identify and even address contemporary issues concerning the Christological and Trinitarian doctrines. / Systematic Theology & Theological Ethics / M.

M.A. / 144 This dissertation is essential because it has indicated the reasons, which have caused the religious juxtaposition, then antagonism, between Constantinople and Rome from the patriarchate of Photios (867) to the days of Michael Keroularios (1054), as well as the consequences that have emanated from it, both at political and social level. It is a historical comparative study, which avoids the narrow limits of theological “misunderstandings” and the various dogmatic interpretations. It is placed within a social, political and cultural framework that has resulted from the particular cultural conditions as these have been formed in both parts of the Roman Empire.This particular study has followed the historical comparative method for the analysis of the religious juxtaposition between Constantinople and Rome. The sources were studied in their original Medieval Greek language according to the historical-critical and philological methodology. The study is completed by the comparison of two Schisms of the year 867 between patriarch Photios and Pope Nicholas I, and of the year 1054 between patriarch Michael Keroularios and Cardinal Umberto, and their consequences, especially from a Byzantine point of view.
