Abstract:

This study employed Foucauldian Discourse Analysis to explore some of the ways professionals drew upon discourses to construct Immigrant Black, Minority Ethnic and Refugee (BMER) women who experience domestic violence. This analysis focused on the functions the discourses served; how the immigrant women were positioned within the discourses; and the material consequences they may have. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine professionals working in generic and BMER-specific domestic violence services as well as statutory, BMER community and women's services.

Abstract:

This study is on the perceptions of the public and professionals on violence against women. Groups of professionals (police, probation, health, housing, volunteer, women's aid and minority group agencies) and the public (men, victims of abuse, children, minorities) were interviewed in the UK after a Zero Tolerance campaign. The first main question we explored was do different sectors of society have different perceptions of violence against women.

In the period of reconstruction following the collapse of legislated Apartheid in South Africa (culminating in the first elections in 1994), pressure has been exerted on professions to restructure and reform themselves to provide services that are more appropriate for a South African context.

This thesis analyses transborder career trajectories to explain how micro-level of working agency is imbedded into broader social processes.

As a starting point this thesis understands working lives as a complex social phenomenon. The interdisciplinary socio-analytical framework elaborated within this thesis is rooted in the sociology of work and migration as well as in gender and area studies.

Abstract:

There is a discrepancy between the life expectancy of men and women of approximately two and a half years (Taylor Nelson Sofres 2014). This suggests that women are likely to spend a period of time in the latter years of their life living alone. It is anticipated that this will lead to a unique experience of later life for women, which to date has received little attention. This study is concerned with exploring the experience of living alone for 11 women aged 70-80 years from the South East of England. A particular emphasis is placed upon the experience of being an older woman, the activities

This study investigates sexual health teaching and its effects. The focus is on how the health clinic works as a pedagogical environment where lessons are offered by clinicians to women patients (often unwittingly) about morality, femininity and the body. Of central concern is the question of how health professionals might contribute to women's quality of life after a viral STI diagnosis. I use examples of the reported engagement between clinicians, women and the two most common viral STIs, the human papilloma virus (HPV) and the herpes simplex virus (HSV).

The impact of domestic violence on women’s health is said to be devastating and is believed to result in poor general, reproductive and psychological health (Parker & Lee, 2002). There is also evidence that the negative impact on women’s health is long term and continues even after the violence has ended.

Abstract:

Forskningen är motstridig när det kommer till huruvida män är utsatta för våld i nära relation. Det talas om ett symmetriskt och om ett asymmetriskt våld. Det första syftar på att män i samma utsträckning som kvinnor blir offer för relationsvåld medan det senare står för att majoriteten som utsätts för denna typ av våld är en kvinna. Överens är man dock om att den typ av våld som män och kvinnor utsätts för i en relation är av olika art. Män är mer utsatta för psykisk misshandel medan kvinnor ofta drabbas värre fysiskt. Brottsförebyggande rådet presenterar siffror där var femte utsatt person

Abstract:

The thesis is a social psychological study of beliefs about women artists and women's art. It is argued that the work of women artists is systematically undervalued in society and it is also argued that people's beliefs about women artists, and their attitudes towards women's art, are stereotypical. People are shown to have stereotyped beliefs about women artists and it is argued that stereotypes comprise the cognitive component of people's attitudes towards women's art. An argument is then presented that the origins of stereotypes can be found in social identity and personal identity. The con

Abstract:

In Sweden, honour-related oppression has received more attention in recent years at the political and academic level but also in social work. Honour-related problems are largely in conflict with the rights and freedoms of children and women, and attempts have been made to alleviate the issue. The purpose of this master thesis is to examine the professionals’ experiences of the challenges of cooperation, support and personal treatment of girls and young women who are exposed to honour-related oppression. The professionals mainly represent the social services and other actors who work with honou

Este trabalho foi desenvolvido como subprojeto integrante da pesquisa A Interface Entre a Ocorrência e o Atendimento de Violência de Gênero Entre Mulheres Usuárias dos Serviços de Saúde da Rede Pública de Ribeirão Preto. A violência contra a mulher é uma das expressões mais perversas da subordinação feminina e gera graves conseqüências para as pessoas que vivenciam o seu ciclo. Mulheres nessa situação buscam frequentemente os serviços de saúde, que possuem um alto poder de detecção da violência. Porém, há uma série de dificuldades por parte dos profissionais, médicos e enfermeiros, em identifi

Bakgrund: Våld i nära relationer mot kvinnor är ett globalt folkhälsoproblem och skapar ett lidande hos de utsatta på flera plan och dessa kvinnor är i särskilt behov av stöd. Vårdpersonal har en viktig roll i att möta dessa kvinnor, där hela människan måste tas i beaktande. Kunskapsbrist och organisatoriska brister försvårar mötet med kvinnor som blivit utsatta för våld. Syfte: Beskriva hur kvinnor som blivit utsatta för våld i nära relationer upplevde omvårdnaden från vårdpersonalen. Metod: Litteraturöversikt där elva kvalitativa artiklar analyserades.

Abstract:

This study aimed to understand the process of constructing meanings on female seropositivity and the care offered to these women through interpretative repertoires. We interviewed 14 professionals of different specialties that comprise a health team in a city within the Triângulo Mineiro. Discourse analysis as proposed by social constructionism was used. A full transcription of interviews and careful reading of the material, which allowed the pointing out of the repertoires were performed. During analysis, it was observed that the meanings of the seropositive women significantly influenced the

Abstract:

This research examined a sample of first generation professional women from the Appalachian region with the goal of description and exploration of issues related to their professional lives. Data from 20 intensive interviews were organized around an expanded version of Park's (1928) concept of marginality which yielded three major foci: (1) self definitions of marginality; (2) consequences of marginality; and (3) adaptive strategies of the marginal person. A continuum conceptualization of marginality emerged from the data with four categories of self-definition: (1) essential marginality; (2
