The purpose of this study is to examine how honor-related violence and oppression cited as ground for compulsory care according to 2 § Law of mandatory care of minors (lag (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga) in the social welfare board and the administrative courts problemdescription. Through a document analysis of 15 court cases where the outcome of all cases have been approval, we have studied the social welfare board and the administrative court descriptions of the girls’ situation. The decrees in our study, where honor have been mentioned, has had a decisive date from 2016-2017 and have been regarding underage girls. Our study examines how honor is expressed and what understandings of honor-related violence and oppression we can find in the social welfare board and administrative court problem descriptions in judgements according to 2 § Law of mandatory care of minors (lag (1990:52) med särskilda bestämmelser om vård av unga). The result shows that the social welfare board in their descriptions of the girls situation explains the violence from a cultural perspective. The administrative court attaches importance to describe the child’s vulnerability and their consequences, rather than leading motive for the violence. The result in our study shows that the social welfare board and the administrative court describes the violence forms and the vulnerability of the girl being similar to what previous research shows in terms of honor related violence. Our conclusion of this result is that there is a good knowledge in both the social welfare board and the administrative court in terms of the violence forms and the vulnerable situation for the girls.
