1	A monument to the flaws Larsdotter Persson, Moa January 2019 (has links) My work is a tribute to the disintegration of built environments, and the chaos and disturbance that it brings into the idea of what a city should look like. An ode to the ruins that are witnesses to destructive social and economic systems and that tell the stories of the life that once inhabited them. A comment and critique on humanities way of ruining everything: world that we live in and our self; a destructive behaviour that we refuse to admit we have, and desperately try to hide. We polish the façades and fake our appearance in order to keep the illusion. I am discussing the concept of ruin romanticism, comparing the garden ruins of the eighteenth century to the urban exploration of abandoned places of modern society, the fascination for what once was, but are no more and the different feelings these places might arouse. I describe how I through experiments with dying, deconstructed screen printing and distressing, manipulate fabrics to create an illusion of brick walls. And how I through experiments with display, sound and light explore solutions for creating the dystopic atmosphere of abandoned places in a textile installation. My biggest inspiration is the inevitable downfallof the urban landscape and I am romanticising the imperfections and the flaws. I take what is understood as ugly by the rules of aesthetics, make it beautiful, and put it on a pedestal.

2	"AVRÄTTAS ej BENÅDAS" : en kvalitativ studie av migrationsmyndigheternas bedömning av synnerligen ömmande omständigheter i ärendena för sex funktionshindrade migranter Shamilova, Saida January 2012 (has links) This study is aimed to increase the knowledge about the Swedish immigration authorities’ assessment of the asylum applications based on particularly distressing circumstances, submitted by disabled undocumented migrants. Making an attempt to explain the reasons of asylum-seekers’ health deterioration during the asylum process, this study determines the factors in migration authorities proceedings affecting such deterioration. Documents in five personal files concerning six disabled asylum-seekers, whose applications were declined, were studied by applying two observational methods: content analysis of the documents in the personal files and non-participant observations made during receptions of undocumented migrants at the Swedish Asylum Committee. The results of the study have shown that migration authorities' way of applying the principle of child’s best interests have a declarative character, while the disability perspective is completely ignored. The migrations authorities make free interpretations of the information on the countries of asylum-seekers' origin, while adaptation to Swedish conditions does not work at all as cause for residence permit. Advocates, who neglect their prior duties, have also a negative influence on the asylum process. Analyzed from the perspective of appropriate sociological concepts, the results of this study have shown that the above mentioned observations cause disabled undocumented migrants health deterioration. asylum seekers undocumented migrants irregular migrants illegal migrants migration authorities particularly distressing circumstances function disabled asylsökande papperslösa migranter illegala migranter irreguljära migranter migrationsmyndigheter synnerligen ömmande omständigheter funktionshindrade
3	Sofrimento psíquico nas organizações: um estudo exploratório junto ao corpo médico de um hospital público no município de Niterói Leite, Ana Paula Todaro Taveira January 2003 (has links) Made available in DSpace on 2009-11-18T18:56:27Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 0 Previous issue date: 2003 / The purpose of this study is to discuss a subject that matters to workers in general, despite colour, sex, age, scholarship or even nationality. Workers with desires and holders of subjectivity, often denied by private or public organizations. The distressing work is in the organizations's daily routine as a psychic burden responsible for physical and psychological diseases, emotional disadjusts, interpersonal conflicts in and outside of the work place, addictions, and urban and family violence. Its polymorphism, allied to its denial by organizations and labor unions confuses and shames the worker, who lives in both solitary and individually. The theory behind this investigation is the studies of the psychic charge of the work developed by Christophe Dejours and his successors. Besides in the specific literature, it was used other studies by psychoanalysts and administration theorists, providing a wide open analysis of the phenomena. / Essa dissertação foi escrita com o objetivo de promover a discussão sobre o sofrimento psíquico no trabalho. Tema atual, presente na vida de todos os trabalhadores, sejam quais forem suas nacionalidades, sexo, raça, faixa etária, nível de escolaridade, enfim, sujeitos possuidores de subjetividade e de desejo. Contudo, muitas vezes o sofrimento é negado pelas organizações produtivas públicas ou privadas. O sofrimento no trabalho é vivido no quotidiano das organizações como uma carga psíquica responsável por doenças físicas e psicológicas, desajustes emocionais, conflitos interpessoais dentro e fora do ambiente de trabalho, vícios, violência familiar e urbana. O polimorfismo do sofrimento aliado a sua negação pelas organizações e sindicatos confunde e envergonha o trabalhador, que passa a vivê-lo de forma individualizada e solitária. A investigação do tema teve como substrato teórico os estudos sobre psicopatologia do trabalho desenvolvidos por Christophe Dejours e seus seguidores. Além da literatura específica, buscou-se recorrer aos estudos da psicanálise e da teoria geral da administração com o objetivo de proporcionar uma ampla análise do fenômeno abordado. Finalmente, foi realizado um estudo exploratório em uma organização pública, o Hospital Getúlio Vargas Filho, com o objetivo de ilustrar o tema, abordando as questões mais significativas a ele relacionadas.

4	The shepherd metaphor in the Old Testament, and its use in pastoral and leadership models Gan, Jonathan 01 1900 (has links) Bibliography: leaves 441-459 / The shepherd metaphor is a prominent and significant one in the Old Testament. However, it has shifted from an agrarian context, of shepherd and sheep in the literal sense, to a socio-political context, of rulers and people in the political sense: a king is a shepherd to the people. A careful review of the given metaphor raises the question whether the metaphor should be the basis of the pastoral and leadership models that are derived from the image of the shepherd, and whether such models can be enriched by the analysis of the said metaphor as applied to the implementation of the shepherding responsibility described in the Old Testament. This research aims to examine various pastoral and leadership models and their use of the shepherd metaphor in the light of the significance of the said metaphor in the Old Testament. It utilises rhetorical criticism in consultation with metaphorical theory to examine the given metaphor used in the models of pastoral and leadership roles and their relationship with the shepherd metaphor in the New Testament. The objective is threefold: (1) exploring the use of the shepherd metaphor in the Old Testament; (2) examining the use of the shepherd metaphor in pastoral and leadership models, which could include pointing out that some of these models rely heavily on their understanding of New Testament uses of this metaphor; and (3) comparing the Old Testament and pastoral/leadership models’ uses of the shepherd metaphor and drawing conclusions based on this comparison. To achieve that end, the discussion also includes the ancient Near Eastern literature and deuterocanonical texts. The thesis shows that a careful analysis of the uses of the shepherd metaphor in the Old Testament could enrich the literature on Christian leadership as well as pastoral models that use this metaphor as their point of departure. / Old Testament and Ancient Near Eastern Studies / D.
