11	Bolagisering av en kommunal förvaltning : En studie om beslutet att övergå till ett helägt kommunalt bolag / Corporatization of a municipal administration : A study about the decision to transfer to a wholly-owned municipal company Östman, Elina, Engström, Klara January 2021 (has links) Bakgrund och problem: Bolagisering är ett växande fenomen inom svenska kommuner där övergången till ett kommunalt bolag innebär en rad förändringar inom verksamheten såsom tillämpning av aktiebolagslagen och en förändrad styrkedja. Motiven bakom bolagisering omfattas av att öka effektiviteten i verksamheten samtidigt som kostnadsreduceringar kan uppnås. Däremot presenteras även en rad risker som reformeringen kan medföra såsom en minskad insyn i det kommunala bolaget till följd av en separation av kontroll och ägande samt att bolaget driftar från kommunen. Till följd av den kritik som riktats mot bolagisering så kan lämpligheten ifrågasättas i specifika kontexter samt vilka faktorer som påverkat beslutet att genomföra reformeringen. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att skapa förståelse för vilka faktorer som påverkar ett bolagiseringsbeslut i en vård- och omsorgsförvaltning samt om beslutet fastställts till följd av att andra kommuner tidigare genomfört en bolagisering.Metod:Denna studie är av kvalitativt slag där en abduktiv forskningsansats antagits. Vidare har en enfallsstudie genomförts där empirisk insamling skett dels genom semistrukturerade intervjuer men även genom dokumentgranskning.Slutsats: Bolagiseringsbeslutet i en vård- och omsorgsförvaltning baseras på ett erhållande av ekonomiska fördelar i form av gynnsammare mervärdesskatteregler. Vidare påvisas även att kommunernas samverkan påverkar beslutet att genomföra en bolagisering där en uttryckt efterliknelse präglat beslutsfattandet samt genomförandet. Bolagiseringen hade troligtvis inte uppdagats om inte en närliggande kommun genomfört reformeringen tidigare vilket påvisar betydande influenser kommunerna emellan.

The motives behind corporatization are to increase efficiency while enabling cost reduction. On the other hand, corporatization is also associated with risks such as a reduced insight in the municipal company due to separation of ownership and control and that the municipal company is being separated from the municipality. As a result of the criticism of corporatization, the adequacy has been questioned in specific industries as well as the factors that influence the decision to realize the reform. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to create an understanding of the factors that influence a decision to corporatize a health- and social care administration and also if the decision was made as a result of other municipalities realizing the reform earlier. Method: This study is of a qualitative nature where an abductive research approach has been adopted. Furthermore, a case study has been conducted where the empirical material is based on semi-structured interviews and document review. Conclusion: The decision to corporatize a health- and social care administration is based on beneficial VAT-regulations. Furthermore, it is also shown that a cooperation between municipalities affects the decision to realize a corporatization where an expressed imitation occurs regarding the decision-making as well as the implementation. If the nearby municipality would not have realized a corporatization the phenomenon would probably not have been discovered which demonstrates significant influences between the municipalities.

12	我國大眾捷運系統營營運組織民營化之研究 / The study of Taiwan MRT operative organization privatization 戴金龍, Dai, Jin-Long Unknown Date (has links) 都市交通問題一直是現今政府亟欲解決的問題，政府的都市交通建設，也攸關人民的權益與生活。台北市近年來交通急遽惡化，交通工具及建設已不堪負荷，而市民在交通壅塞所損失的社會成本更是不計其數。值此背景，便產生對交通運輸工具的強烈需求，而大眾捷運系統由於其運量大且速度快的特點便成為政府解決交通問題的一帖良方，也成為我國六年國建中重要的交通運輸建設。大眾捷運系統營運的良窳，實決定於其營運組織的經營是否良好具有績效。在這個政府財政緊縮而經濟不景氣的年代，如何降低成本並增進生產力以提供良好的營運品質與便利的運輸服務，乃是系統營運的重心，更是對營運組織的一大挑戰。而植基於民營化理念下的營運組織設計便成為政府因應環境時勢的有效策略，亦是我國目前採用並汲於發展的模式。民營化政策的發展，乃是近數十年來經濟自由化理念下的一個鮮明趨勢，亦是各國公部門改革運動的有力工具。而各國捷運營運組織採行民營化政策的主要目的，即是希望經此體制與經營理念的變革，來提升捷運系統的營運效率，進而能提供良質的運輸服務以裨益民生。縱然各國政府所採行的捷運營運組織民營化政策隨著生態差異而有所不同，但以民營化的工具來追求產業活絡化的目標卻是相當一致。而這種活絡產業與追求經營績效的持續革新作為，正是民營化政策核心精神之所在。大體而言，本論文研究的主要理念，即是結合捷運營運組織民營化政策的理論與實務，循而發展出理論、實務與兩者之比較評析等三大層次。理論層次即探討捷運營運組織民營化的理念、組織型態、經營方式以及我國所採用[經營自主型捷運公司]之理論依據與組織設計；實務層次即以台北捷運公司為研究案例，探討該公司的運作現狀與民營化方案之發展，以及政府的相關作為；進而在理論基礎與實務現況的了解釐清後，依據理論規範來評析我國捷運營運組織的民營化政策，並提出筆者的省思與意見。大眾捷運系統民營化公共事業管理局捷運公司公司化仿企業 MRT Privatization Public authority MRT company Corporatization Businessslike
13	Bolagisering av kommunal vatten- och avloppsverksamhet : En studie av överlåtelsernas giltighet med avseende på rättigheter för ledningar / Corporatization of municipal water supply and sewerage work activity Kullgren, Emma, Olsson, Johanna January 2015 (has links) Den kommunala vatten- och avloppsverksamheten har i mindre skala bolagiserats sedan 1970-talet. I början var bolagisering inte så vanligt, men under 1990-talet skedde en ökning och många kommuner genomförde bolagiseringar. Idag har 76 av Sveriges 290 kommuner bolagiserat sin kommunala vatten- och avloppsverksamhet.När en kommunal verksamhet överförs till ett kommunalt bolag måste de ledningar som utgör fastighetstillbehör skiljas från fastigheterna de tillhör, för att överlåtelsen ska ha sakrättslig verkan enligt bestämmelser i jordabalken. De befintliga ledningsrätterna måste också överföras till bolaget i samband med överlåtelsen, annars blir överlåtelsen ogiltig enligt ledningsrättslagen. För att överlåtelserna och överlåtelseavtalen ska vara rättsligt hållbara måste överlåtelserna genomföras på rätt sätt enligt lag.Syftet med studien är att undersöka i vilken utsträckning överlåtelseavtalen som upprättas i samband med överlåtelserna är rättsligt hållbara. Frågor som kommer att besvaras i den här studien är: Hur bör en överlåtelse av vatten- och avloppsverksamhet gå till med avseende på ledningarna som tillhör verksamheten? Vad överlåts från kommunen till det kommunala bolaget? Är överlåtelserna rättsligt hållbara?Metoden som har använts i den här studien är att studera överlåtelseavtal som upprättats i samband med överlåtelser, samt att genomföra intervjuer och enkäter med kunniga personer på de kommunala bolagen. Genom att genomföra en analys av överlåtelseavtal och utvärdera resultat från intervjuer och enkäter, kunde författarna få en uppfattning om giltigheten i överlåtelserna.Resultatet visar att flera av överlåtelserna är ogiltiga och det finns en hel del ledningar inom kommunerna som saknar rättigheter. Vid överlåtelsen bör de ledningar som utgör fastighetstillbehör skiljas från fastigheterna för att ge överlåtelsen sakrättslig verkan. Även ledningsrätterna tillhörande ledningarna bör överlåtas i samband med överlåtelsen för att försäkra sig om att överlåtelsen är giltig enligt lag. Det bör göras så att rättigheterna till ledningarna och äganderätten innehas av samma ägare. / The Swedish municipality public water supply and sewerage work activity has been put into municipal companies in small extent since the 70s. Corporatizations were not so common in the beginning, but in the 90s it increased and several municipalities around the country started to put their public water supply and sewerage into municipal companies. Today have 76 of 290 municipalities corporatized their water supply and sewerage work.When a municipal activity are transferred to municipal companies the utilities that are property fixtures must be separated from the property, in order for the transfer to be legal according to the conditions in the Swedish Land Code. The utility easements that belong to the activity must be transferred together with the title of the facilities, otherwise the transfer is not valid according to the Swedish Utility Easements Act. In order for the transfer agreements to be legally sustainable and to avoid future problems, the transfer must be accurate according to the law.The aim of the study is to investigate in which extent the transfer agreements that are established during the transfer of public water supply and sewerage work activity to municipal companies are legally sustainable. Questions that will be answered in this study are: how should a transfer of water supply and sewerage work activity be proceeded with regard to the utility easements? What are transferred from the municipality to the municipal company? Are the transfers legally sustainable?The method that have been used are to study transfer agreements and do interviews and questionnaires with erudite people employed at the municipal companies. When the analysis of the transfer agreement were made and the result from the interviews and questionnaires were put together, it gave the authors an idea of the agreements validity.The result shows that several of the transfers aren’t valid and that there are plenty of utilities in the municipalities that don’t have any rights. During the transfer the utilities that are property fixtures should be separated from the property in order for the transfer to be legally valid. The utilities easements should also be transferred so that the title of the utilities and the rights of the utilities have the same owner.

16	From the "rising tide" to solidarity: disrupting dominant crisis discourses in dementia social policy in neoliberal times MacLeod, Suzanne 26 March 2014 (has links) As a social worker practising in long-term residential care for people living with dementia, I am alarmed by discourses in the media and health policy that construct persons living with dementia and their health care needs as a threatening “rising tide” or crisis. I am particularly concerned about the material effects such dominant discourses, and the values they uphold, might have on the collective provision of care and support for our elderly citizens in the present neoliberal economic and political context of health care. To better understand how dominant discourses about dementia work at this time when Canada’s population is aging and the number of persons living with dementia is anticipated to increase, I have rooted my thesis in poststructural methodology. My research method is a discourse analysis, which draws on Foucault’s archaeological and genealogical concepts, to examine two contemporary health policy documents related to dementia care – one national and one provincial. I also incorporate some poetic representation – or found poetry – to write up my findings. While deconstructing and disrupting taken for granted dominant crisis discourses on dementia in health policy, my research also makes space for alternative constructions to support discursive and health policy possibilities in solidarity with persons living with dementia so that they may thrive. / Graduate / 0452 / 0680 / 0351 / macsuz@shaw.ca social determinants of health social exclusion crisis discourse Alzheimer's Alzheimer Society of Canada Suzanne MacLeod Susan Strega Donna Jeffery poststructural poststructuralism admission to long-term care funding for long-term care acute care aging demographic BC Psychogeriatric Association biomedical British Columbia Canada Health Act collective social responsibility competition corporate profit corporatization deresponsibilization elder friendly elderly citizens family caregivers Foucault found poetry genealogy of power knowledge incompetent Ministry of Health moral economics pharmaceutical bed blocker stigmatized tsunami absent-person action plan aging population alternative discourse apocalyptic demography appropriate archaeology archaeology of knowledge archaeological British Columbia burden Canada caregiver charity charitable collective collective car community community care condition of possibility conditions of possibility corporate counter-discourse dementia dementia care dementia policy dementia social policy dependent depoliticize discourse discourse analysis disruptive discourse economic burden economics economy elder emergency epidemic exclusion fear-monger Foucauldian found poem genealogy genealogical health authority health care health care staff health care system health policy document healthy lifestyle home and community care homogenization homogenize hospital imaginaries imaginary incapable individual responsibility individualism knowledge long-term care material effect materiality of discourse media moral panic national strategy neoliberal neoliberalism neoliberal rationality not prepared object objectification other person-centered people living with dementia person living with dementia persons living with dementia person with dementia poem poetic representation poetry policy policies political politics power power knowledge power relations private privatize privatization productivity of dominant discourse public health care residential care resistance responsibility responsibilization rising tide safety net shift costs to caregivers responsibility social policy imaginary social well-being social work social worker solidarity specialized stakeholder state stigma subject matter expert taxpayer threat unprepared unproductive voluntary volunteer wait time wave social policy
