11	Att bli gammal i ett främmande land. : En kvalitativ studie om äldre syriska invandrares perspektiv på åldrande och socialt stöd. / Growing old in a foreign country. : A qualitative study on older Syrian immigrants' perspectives on aging and social support. Alkhatib, Ola, Darwich, Emil January 2023 (has links) The aim of this study was to increase understanding of how older Syrian migrants experience aging in Sweden as well as their perspective on needs related to aging and how these needs can be met. The empirical base of the study was eight semi-structured qualitative interviews. In addition, theories about Maslow's hierarchy of needs and social support were applied to the study to enable a further analysis of our respondents' perspectives on aging, perspectives on Swedish elderly care and perspectives on relative support. The result of the study shows that our respondents feel that it is difficult to see how their needs as elderly people can be met. They live in a country with a different language and culture without having any knowledge about the new country. They also believe that the responsibility lies mainly on their relatives instead of searching for help or support from the public elderly care, because they think that the help offered by the elderly care is not prepared to their individual needs. The study concluded that our respondents think that aging in a foreign country does not give the same feeling as aging in their home country. Learning a new language is certainly not easy for them. It is also not easy for them to live in a new society with its norms, culture, and tradition. All of our respondents are dependent on their adult children and need help with various things. This help that children provide for their elderly parents is an obligation in their culture. Social Work Socialt arbete
12	Violence against LGBTIQ+ Individuals in the Syrian Arab Republic Bergsten, Lisa January 2019 (has links) This bachelor thesis is a qualitative, small-n, empirically driven comparative study that examines the relationship between rebel group ideology and targeted violence against the LGBTIQ+ community. Two rebel groups in the Syrian Arab Republic, with different ideological beliefs, are examined and compared in relation to their level of violence against LGBTIQ+ individuals. Findings in this study suggest that religious groups are keener to use extreme violence against sexual minorities, and to target them explicitly, but further studies are needed to fully understand this targeting of sexual minorities in armed conflicts. lslamic State Free Syrian Army Ideology LGBTIQ+ Gender Sexualities Targeted Violence Victim Selection Armed Conflict Syrian Arabic Republic Sexual Minorities HBTQ+ genus kön sexualiteter sexuella minoriteter ideologier beväpnad konflikt Syriska Arabiska Republiken IS FSA Övrig annan samhällsvetenskap Gender Studies Genusstudier
