Dwight Moody was the dominant English-speaking evangelist of the late nineteenth century. Much of Moody's work focused on urban centers. This thesis is an analysis of the origins of Dwight Moody's urban social vision. Specifically it studies the role Moody's theology played in the formation of his approach to the various urban ills that emerged during the mid to late nineteenth century in the United States and the United Kingdom. The thesis seeks to show that theology drove Moody's approach to urban ills. Because of Moody's temperament and limited educational background, his personal experiences and personal relationships played an inordinately significant role in the formation of Moody's theology. The thesis explores these experiences and relationships demonstrating how they shaped Moody's theology. It concludes by outlining Moody's theological commitments that framed his social vision, and his resultant social activities. The thesis concludes Moody was an evangelical whose social vision was in significant ways contiguous with those of earlier revivalists like Finney. Specifically, Moody, like Finney, always made evangelism his first priority. Further, similar to Finney, Moody was active in the temperance movement and various educational endeavors. However, Moody's conception of human sinfulness and commitment to premillennialism created a different set of expectations. Moody was dubious about the future of human society. He believed sin was the cause of poverty and that conversion brought freedom from sin and a desire to love others, especially the poor. He also believed the Bible commanded charity to the poor. Consequently, while Moody never fully embraced the Calvinistic goal of a righteous republic, he was concerned about the moral state of the country and the lot of the poor. In fact, Moody was active in numerous charitable endeavors targeting the urban poor. However, Moody maintained the only way to improve public morality and the suffering of the poor was through personal conversion, because only conversion would solve the problem of sin and generate charity. Thus, from Moody's perspective political or structural reforms divorced from evangelism were ultimately doomed to fail.

In social scenes, humans interact with each other by sending visible social signals, such as facial expressions, body gestures, and gaze movements. Social cognition, the ability to perceive, model, and predict such social signals, enables people to understand social interactions and to plan their behavior in accordance with the understanding. Computational social cognition is a necessary function allowing artificial agents to enter the social spaces because it enables a socially acceptable behavior. However, two key challenges preclude developing computational social cognition: (1) the core attributes of social cognition such as attention, emotion, and intent are latent quantities that cannot be directly measured by existing sensors; (2) social behaviors are interdependent to each other, i.e., a unified representation is required to understand social behavior as wholes. In this thesis, we address these challenges by establishing a computational foundation towards social scene understanding from social cameras. A social camera is a camera held or worn by a member of a social group that inherits his/her gaze behavior. This social camera is an ideal sensor to capture social signals for three reasons: (1) social cameras naturally secure the best view because the wearers or holders intelligently localize the best view point to attend to what they find interesting; (2) social cameras produce more views of events of greater interest; (3) social cameras efficiently capture socially important events by following social behaviors when the scenes are dynamic. We leverage these advantages of social cameras to understand social scenes. We present a framework to develop social cognition by perceiving social signals, modeling the relationship between them, and predicting social behaviors. Social Signal Reconstruction: Reconstructing social signals in a unified 3D coordinate system provides a computational basis to analyze social scenes, e.g., to build a model, reason about relationships, and predict social behaviors. We leverage social cameras to reconstruct three types of social signals: gaze movement, body motion, and general scene motion. (1) Gaze is a strong indicator of attentive behaviors. We model the gaze using the primary gaze direction that is emitted from the center of the eyes and aligned with the head orientation. This gaze model is reconstructed in 3D by leveraging ego- and exo-motion of social cameras. (2) Human body motion such as gestures often conveys intent of social interactions. We model skeletal motion using a set of articulated joint trajectories where the distance between the trajectories of adjacent joints remains constant. This articulation constraint in conjunction with a temporal constraint is applied to reconstruct human body motion without an activity specific prior. (3)We further relax the articulation constraint to model general scene motion occurring in social interactions. We represent a 3D trajectory using a linear combination of predefined trajectory basis vectors. We solve for the parameters of each trajectory by formulating it as a linear least squares system that allows us to reconstruct topology-independent motion and handle missing data. Social Behavior Understanding: Social behaviors are interactive by definition and therefore, an individual behavioral analysis in isolation cannot fully account for the fundamental relationship between behaviors. For instance, a social signal transmitted by one person can trigger responses in other and the responses can, in turn, affect the behavior of the person. A relational analysis between the signals is needed to characterize the social interactions. We exploit the reconstructed social signals in a unified coordinate system to understand the relationship between them. In particular, our analysis focuses on joint attention, the primary social attribute that is strongly corv related with attentive behaviors. We present a method to reconstruct 3D joint attention modeled by social charges—latent quantities that form at locations where primary gaze directions of members in a social group intersect. Inspired by the study of electric fields, we model the relationship between gaze behaviors using a gradient field induced by the social charges. This gradient field allows us to predict gaze behaviors given social charges at any location in the scene. Our overarching goal is to develop computational social cognition that will enable artificial agents to accomplish their tasks in a socially acceptable way. This thesis takes a first step towards the goal by leveraging social cameras. We present a 3D representation of social signals and based on the reconstructed signals, we build a relational model of social behaviors, which allows us to predict the behaviors. We apply our frameworks in real-world social scenes including sporting events, meetings, and parties.

Ett av skolans viktigaste mål är att förbereda eleverna för ett demokratiskt samhälle där vi i allt högre grad förväntas göra medvetna val och fatta viktiga beslut. Många av dessa val och beslut avser naturvetenskapliga samhällsfrågor, och kursplanen för de naturorienterande ämnena betonar förmågan att använda naturvetenskapliga kunskaper för att ta ställning i sådana värdefrågor. Vårt syfte med studien är att ta reda på i vilken grad elever och lärare upplever att undervisningen i de naturvetenskapliga ämnena används till värdefrågor, och om de är nöjda med dagens undervisning i det perspektivet. En enkätundersökning genomfördes med elever i år 9 och deras lärare för att ta reda på deras attityder till NO-undervisningen. Den visade att både elever och lärare ansåg att tyngdpunkten ligger på att lära fakta, och de önskar mer av värdefrågor i den naturvetenskapliga undervisningen, flickorna i högre grad än pojkarna. Eleverna upplevde SO-undervisningen bättre avseende förhållandet mellan fakta och värdefrågor, och var också mer intresserade av dessa ämnen. Vi anser att en möjlig väg till ett större engagemang för naturvetenskap kan vara att oftare låta eleverna reflektera, ta ställning och argumentera i värdefrågor.

Syftet med det här arbetet var att ta reda på hur mycket målspråk spansklärare använder i klassrummet samt att ta del av deras åsikter om målspråksanvändning. Med utgångspunkt i forskningen om målspråksanvändning samt vad som betonas i kursplanen för moderna språk (SKOLFS 2000:87) angående målspråksanvändning gjorde jag en empirisk undersökning med hjälp av kvalitativ metod. Två lärare som undervisar i spanska på gymnasienivå medverkar i undersökningen som består av fem observationer av deras undervisning i spanska steg 1 till steg 3, samt två intervjuer. Resultatet visar att lärarna använder målspråket framförallt vid språkrelaterade uppgifter, exempelvis vid genomgång av texter, medan modersmålet används för kommunikation med eleverna, för att ge instruktioner och information samt vid grammatikundervisning. Båda lärarna anser att målspråksanvändning i klassrummet är viktigt, men att målspråket inte kan användas uteslutande i alla situationer. De menar också att kontakten till eleverna är lättare att få om lärarna inte endast använder målspråket. Lärarna anser dock att det är genomförbart att använda målspråket i större utsträckning i de högre stegen.

Syftet med studien är att undersöka om och hur lagen om förbud mot diskriminering och annan kränkande behandling av barn och elever är implementerad i grundskolan. Lagen innebär en skärpning för alla verksamheter som lyder under skollagen att se till barn och elevers rättigheter. De ska även bedriva aktiva åtgärder för att uppfylla lagens krav, samt utreda och förhindra att trakasserier och annan kränkande behandling uppstår. I en kvalitativ studie genomfördes intervjuer med pedagoger och rektorer från två grundskolor. Detta för att ta reda på deras inställning till likabehandlingsplanen och deras arbete med den. Jag ville även ta reda på hur och om lagen var implementerad i deras verksamhet, med utgångspunkt i villkoren för implementering, förståelse, kapacitet och vilja. Det råder brister på båda skolorna men även viktiga faktorer i form av ledningens, arbetslaget och antimobbningsteamets roll framgår som förutsättningar för ett väl fungerande förebyggande arbete.

In this thesis, I developed machine learning methods that would support tools for gaining health insights from social media images. On the one hand, I have helped create a dataset for food image segmentation and a segmentation network for this task, a task that is very relevant for understanding the nutritional content of food from images. I also explored the flip side of the issue, and helped design an interface that users can use to explore food recipes in machine learning-driven ways. On the other hand, I helped create a dataset and model for classifying types of disasters given images of natural or manmade disasters.

From Waterloo to the First World War, British teachers associated with four selected schools expected their students to improve social conditions in Britain. They used advanced teaching methods, provided world views and opportunities for informal learning. Their school costs were above average. Robert Owen, Richard Dawes and Frederick Sanderson became associated with conservative groups which eventually undid their attainments. George Edmondson, then Charles Willmore, free of opposition, continued until market forces closed their school.

Previous studies have shown that practice can improve adults’ ability to discriminate between two similar high frequency spatial patterns. Adults trained on this task also demonstrated significant improvement on a standard acuity test which is dependent on high frequency information. The aim of this study was to extend the range of training patterns to low (1.7 c/deg) and middle (4.0 c/deg.) spatial frequencies, and to determine if practice in a similar spatial frequency discrimination task would transfer to other spatial tasks dependent on low frequency information. Fourteen subjects in three age groups (young, middle and old) were tested before and after training on four spatial tasks: grating discrimination, grating detection, bisection thresholds and Vernier acuity. Adults trained on 1.7 c/deg showed significant improvement on the discriminability task, while those trained on 4.0 c/deg did not. It was found that improvement on the low spatial frequency discrimination task did not transfer to any of the other tasks. However, it was shown that the degree of improvement was similar for all age groups. This suggests that plasticity in the human visual system remains relatively constant throughout adulthood.

Since the railway was constructed through Skövde in the 1850s, it has served as both barrier and catalyst for growth and overall development. Today, the sparse area surrounding the station faces large-scale develop- ment in terms of office buildings and parking garages, thus reinforcing the barrier through the city. With social sustainability and public life as starting point, the project suggests an alternative scenario by identify- ing and injecting the city’s inherent qualities into the area.
Sedan järnvägen anlades genom Skövde i mitten av 1800-talet har den agerat både barriär och katalysator för tillväxt och utveckling i Skövde, en stad med 50 000 invånare som idag har rollen som centralort i Skaraborg. Idag står det glesa och outvecklade området omkring Skövde Resecentrum inför storskalig utveckling med fokus på kontorsbyggnader och parkeringsgarage, vilket kommer förstärka järnvägens roll som barriär i staden. Med utgångspunkt i social hållbarhet och publikt liv föreslår projektet ett alternativ scenario genom att identifiera och injicera stadens befintliga kvaliteér i området. Resultatet är en alternativ vision bestående av fem publika platser med skiftande karaktärer hämtade från staden. Projektet ifrågasätter även vad ett stationsområde behöver och kan vara, och vad som verkligen sätter en stad på kartan.

Syftet med detta arbete är att förklara hur företag kan tänka kring vision. Jag har genomfört en litteraturstudie om begreppet vision som visar på att det inte är helt klart vad en vision betyder och hur processen ser ut från idé till verklighet. Genom att sammanställa tidigare forskning om ämnet och undersöka varför företag lyckas eller misslyckas med sina visioner såg jag en koppling och ett sätt att arbeta med visioner som jag kallade SIR-processen. Denna process bygger på tre faser hur visioner kan skapas, implementeras och realiserad i företag. För att se hur processen kan hjälpa företag att arbeta mot visioner, använde jag SIR-processen i en kvalitativ fallstudie och utförde intervjuer på anställda på olika nivåer inom ett och samma företag. I intervjuerna framkom det att det saknas kunskap om vision som begreppet och att de anställda uppfattar att företagets visioner riktar sig till olika målgrupper. Resultatet visar att det finns en skillnad i hur företaget arbetar med olika visioner inom ett och samma företag. Det framkom även att arbeta mot visioner är en process i flera steg som kan bidra till att uppnå gemensamma mål och en gemensam riktning att röra sig mot. Med hjälp av SIR-processen kan företag med eller utan en befintlig vision få vägledning om hur visioner kan skapas, implementeras och realiseras.Nyckelord: Vision, Företagsekonomi, Skapa, Implementera, Realisera
The purpose of this work is to explain how companies can think about creating, implementing and realizing business visions. I have conducted a literature study on the concept of vision showing that it is not clear what a vision means and how the process looks from idea to reality. By compiling previous research on the subject and investigate why companies succeed or fail with their visions I saw a connection and an approach on working with visions that I called the SIR process, which is based on three phases how visions can be created, implemented and realized in companies. To see how the process can help companies to work towards visions, I used the SIR-process on a qualitative case study conducted on employees at different levels within one and the same company. The interviews show that there is a lack of knowledge about what the concept of vision is and that all employees relate differently to the company's vision. The results show that there is a difference in how the company works with different visions within the same company. It also appears that working towards visions is a multi-phase process that can contribute to common goals and a direction to move against. One learning is that using the SIR-process, companies with or without an existing vision may get a guidance on how to create, implement and realize their business visions.Keywords: Vision, Create, Implement, Realize

In contemporary American political life, concepts such as duty to country and society often play a role in political discourse, but are often forgotten in the lives of average Americans. The life of the average citizen is focused on issues of economic survival, familial matters, and the diversions that occupy persons. Devotion to country is made an at best secondary concern for Americans. The purpose of this work is to examine the concepts of civic virtue that historically have dominated American political thought, using the writings of Thomas Jefferson and his influences as the primary source material for this effort, as well as the writings of modern western political theorists. Through this work, a conflict emerges between the values of western liberal thought and classic republicanism; to this end, a secondary purpose of this work is to reconcile those differences in an American context. Finally, a third purpose of this work is to offer a theoretical plan for re-connecting the average citizen with concepts of civic virtue through a proposal for public service.

Background: Social exclusion of people with vision impairments is an ongoing issue. Since social inclusion emphasizes social and emotional aspects as distinct from academic ones and the aspects concerning opportunities, the focus is turned on the domain of social interactions and friendships. Adolescence is the time point when youth feels mostly the need to ‘fit in’ in social circles and groups and the social life and friendships are important aspects of young people’s well-being and development. Aim: The aim of this study is to review the existing literature on the social interactions and friendships of adolescents with visual impairments from their own perspective and investigate the interventions designed to improve their social interactions and friendships. Method: A literature search on the databases of ERIC, CINAHL and PsycINFO and a hand search on the reference lists of the relevant articles was conducted. The search was limited to recent peer reviewed studies published in English, reporting perspectives of adolescents (13-18 years old) with visual impairments on their social interactions and friendships and intervention studies aimed to support them in the aforementioned domain. Results: In the 18 included studies, adolescents with vision impairments engaged more in passive activities that were not highly interactive. They reported being satisfied with their networks and friends, however contradictions existed in the perceived quality of friendships and the feeling of loneliness. The context of school was presented often as problematic compared to other contexts, and friendships in schools were rare. According to adolescents’ voices, friendships helped to cope with the impairment, friends had a meaningful role in their life and they made school life more enjoyable. In comparison to their sighted peers, adolescents with vision impairments had smaller networks and less friends with whom they had different type of relationships. Lastly even though several barriers and facilitators were identified, which belong to domains of Body functions and structures and Physical, Attitudinal and Social environment, there was a lack of interventions aiming to support the social interactions and friendships of adolescents with vision impairments. Conclusions: Considering the importance of social interactions and friendships in adolescents’ life for them to learn, develop and enjoy, more interventions with social focus need to be designed in respect to the challenges that exist. A plethora of barriers and facilitators impacting the social interactions and friendships of adolescents with vision impairments were identified that need to be taken into consideration for future research and interventions since the existing literature provided so far is limited. Adolescents need to be engaged in this process so that their interests, preferences and their views are prioritized.

Denna uppsats handlar om den svenska Försvarsmaktens jämställdhetsmål som har satts upp för att främja jämställdheten och på sikt få in fler kvinnor i organisationen. Mer specifikt handlar uppsatsen om hur kvinnorna inom Försvarsmakten anser att dessa jämställdhetsmål efterlevs. Uppsatsen baserar sig på intervjuer med tre kvinnliga yrkesofficerare som får ge sin syn på livet i och runt det militära samt på försvarets jämställdhetsarbete och hur det påverkar dem. Resultaten jag kommer fram till i denna uppsats är att Försvarsmakten för dessa tre kvinnor är en bra arbetsplats för dem, oavsett deras individuella livssituationer, men att det fortfarande finns en hel del att jobba på vad gäller jämställdhetsmålen.

This thesis is about the Swedish armed forces and the equality goals which have been established to give equal opportunities between the sexes and to encourage more women to join the armed forces. More specifically this study is about the women of the armed forces and whether they believe that these equality goals have been achieved or not. The thesis is based on interviews with three female officers employed by the Swedish armed forces. They answered questions regarding their experiences of the equality goals and about their day to day life regarding their job as well as questions about their social life. The conclusion of this thesis is that the armed forces in general seem to be good employer regarding equality, regardless of the women’s individual lifestyles, but that there is still work to do regarding the equality between the sexes.

Syftet med detta arbete är att undersöka om individintegrerade elever är en del av helheten i klassen sett ur ett socialt perspektiv.

Vi har använt oss av en kvalitativ metod, det vill säga att vi har gjort en intervjuundersökning som ligger till grund för resultatet och diskussionen.

Vi har använt oss av teoretikern Vygotskij samt den socialpsykologiska teorin.

I resultatet har vi kommit fram till slutsatser som pekar mot att den individintegrerade eleven inte är en del av helheten i klassen sett ur ett socialt perspektiv. Det framkommer i resultatet att lärarna anser att de behöver mer resurser i sitt arbete med individintegrerade elever för att kunna främja den sociala gemenskapen.

Stereotypes and prejudices towards different ethnic groups held by people from an extremely impoverished area in Callao, Peru were studied. A mixed methodology was designed, comprised of a survey study (n = 115) and four focus groups (n = 30). Results show the existence of specific stereotypes to represent groups of high (Whites) and low status (Andeans, Amazonians and Afro-Peruvians). Every assessed group was described through ambivalent stereotyping contents. Results show that white people were perceived as instrumentalist, corrupts and non-patriotic while low status groups were seen as low in instrumentalism but warmth and sympathetic. Comparing these results with Espinosa, Calderon, Guimac and Burga (2007), it becomes evident that stereotyping representations held by people of poor strata are structurally similar to those held by people of middle-class groups. However, prejudice toward high status groups’ members is stronger among poor respondents when compared with middle class respondents, because impoverished people are likely to consider members of high status groups as individuals with discriminatory and excluding behaviors against people of low status groups.
Se estudian estereotipos y prejuicios hacia distintos grupos étnicos que presentan los habitantes de una zona de pobreza extrema en el Callao, Perú. Se desarrollo un diseño mixto de investigación con una fase cuantitativa donde se aplicaron encuestas (n = 115) y una cualitativa donde se realizaron 4 grupos focales (n = 30). Los resultados muestran representaciones estereotípicas que comprenden grupos de alto (blancos) y bajo estatus (andinos, amazónicos y afroperuanos). Los grupos evaluados son representados a través de contenidos estereotipos ambivalentes. Los blancos son percibidos como instrumentales, corruptos y poco patriotas, mientras que los de bajo estatus como poco instrumentales pero cálidos y simpáticos. Comparando estos resultados con los obtenidos por Espinosa, Calderón, Guimac & Burga (2007), se observa que las representaciones estereotípicas de los participantes de sectores pobres son estructuralmente similares a las de personas de sectores medios. Sin embargo, el prejuicio asignado a grupos de alto estatus resulta mayor en la muestra de pobreza extrema, ya que se atribuye a sus miembros practicas discriminatorias y excluyentes que afectan a los grupos de bajo estatus.

Examensarbetets syfte är att undersöka hur förskollärarnas visioner och verksamhetens realiteter möts i samband med förskolans lärarledda skapandeverksamhet och vilka hinder som kan uppstå i detta möte. Studien bygger på kvalitativa intervjuer med tre förskollärare från tre olika förskolor, varav en har en uttalad skapandeprofil, samt ostrukturerade observationer av den lärarledda skapandeverksamheten. Empirin har analyserats med hjälp av resultatet från tidigare studier och de tankar som historiskt påverkat utvecklingen av den skapande verksamheten inom förskolan. I materialet har man kunnat finna influenser från den barnpsykologiska forskningen, konstpedagogiken samt den pedagogiska teori och praktik som växt fram i förskoleverksamheten. Störst påverkan på den skapande verksamheten verkar förskolans tudelade ursprung ha, då arvet från de omsorgsinriktade barnkrubborna och de pedagogiskt inriktade barnträdgårdarna ska smälta samman i en fungerande verksamhet. De hinder och dilemman som förskollärarna upplever när de försöker förverkliga sina visioner för den lärarledda skapandeverksamheten rör miljön, materialet, personalsammansättningen, personaltätheten och barngruppernas storlek.

A failure to properly perceive commercial conditions requiring innovation and a failure to understand the underlying nature of technological change are typically said to engender a reluctance to innovate. Explanations of why mature firms in particular, are slow to innovate, frequently draw upon technological, economic or strategic descriptions. However, human interaction and understanding are suggested as being 'at the heart' of the process. Consequently, this thesis considers the cognitive and social nature of managerial vision and its role in stimulating innovation within ICI Paints. Drawing upon a Situated Cognition perspective, a broad exploratory account of the role of the cognitive and social mechanisms of vision and the role of agency and structure by which technology is shaped and developed, suggests several conceptual areas where a cognitive approach may complement sociological approaches to technological change. The account suggests that the content of managerial vision is shaped through a personal discourse, shared practice and 'apprenticeship' learning and remains open to revision within the boundaries of 'ground rules and agreed prejudice'. Beliefs concerning future innovation opportunity are exchanged, modified and appropriated through a continuous social narrative, with an order of shared meaning provided by the cultural heritage of the firm, the specification of a particular technology and the 'legitimising' influence of 'communities of practice'. Consequently, the construction, development and transmission of 'vision' is situated within the meaning that existing practice and technology has for individuals.

Stockholm är en stad som ständigt växer. I takt med befolkningsökningen har det skett ökad efterfrågan på bostäder och utbyggd samhällsservice, kompetens, kapital och investeringar med mera. Den kraftiga befolkningsökningen medför utmaningar vad gäller stadsplanering och växande sociala och ekonomiska skillnader mellan stadsdelar i Stockholm. Segregationen och inkomstspridningen har ökat och stockholmarna tenderar även att bo i allt mer socioekonomiskt homogena områden. För att alla stadens aktörer ska arbeta mot samma mål har Stockholm stad tagit fram en vision som ska uppfyllas till år 2040. Målet är att Stockholm blir en storstad som är mångsidig, hållbart växande och dynamisk samt smart och innovativ. Hagastaden anses av Stockholm Stad vara en viktig del av stadens förverkligande av visionen. Den nya stadsdelen ska bildas genom att sammankoppla Solna och Stockholm. Målet är att staden ska utvecklas till en inkluderade stadsdel för folk i olika livsfaser, med olika förutsättningar, behov och intressen. En utmaning med projektet benämns vara att det blir svårt att inkludera alla socioekonomiska grupper i staden, då nyproducerade bostäder är relativt dyra. Detta kan riskera att bidra till ökade sociala klyftor, ojämlika livschanser, utanförskap och minskad social sammanhållning i samhället. Denna utveckling är varken bra för enskilda individer eller för samhället i stort. Syftet med detta kandidatexamensarbete har varit att, genom kvalitativa litteraturstudier och intervjuer, granska om projektet bidrar till ytterligare växande sociala och ekonomiska skillnader i Stockholm samt om bostadsbyggandet bidrar till en mer socialt inkluderande och hållbar stad. Resultatet visade att det har varit svårt att inkludera socioekonomiska grupper när det gäller bostad. Däremot inkluderas de genom att stadsdelen blir tillgänglig för fler och enkel att röra sig i. Hagastaden har lyckats med att bli en innovativ mångsidig och upplevelserik stad. Det finns en blandning av bostadsutbud, men eftersom det endast handlar om nyproduktion har inte låginkomsttagare råd att flytta dit. Det erkänns vara en utmaning att inkludera den socioekonomiska gruppen, men man pekar även på att den rådande bostadspolitiken är skälet till att situationen är som den är idag.
Stockholm is a city that is constantly growing. In line with the population increase, there has been increased demand for housing and expanded community service, skills, capital and investments etc.The rapid increase in population brings challenges in terms of urban planning and growing social and economic differences between districts in Stockholm. Segregation and income distribution have increased, and residents in Stockholm also tend to live in socio-economically homogeneous areas. Inorder for all the city's actors to work towards the same goal, the City of Stockholm has developed avision that will be fulfilled by the year 2040. The goal is for Stockholm to become a big city that isversatile, sustainably growing and dynamic as well as smart and innovative. Hagastaden is considered to be an important part of the city's realization of the vision. The new city will be formed by connecting Solna and Stockholm. The goal is to develop the city into an inclusive neighborhood for people in different stages of life, with different conditions, needs and interests. A challenge with the project is mentioned to be the difficulty to include all socio-economic groups in the city, as newly-manufactured housing is relatively expensive. This may contribute to increased social gaps, unequal life chances, exclusion and reduced social cohesion in the society. This development is not good for neither individuals nor for society at large. The purpose of this bachelor's thesis has been to, through qualitative literature studies and interviews,examine whether Hagastaden contributes to further growing social and economic differences in Stockholm and whether the housing construction in the city contributes to a more socially inclusiveand sustainable city. We have based on the goals that have been set for Vision 2040 and compared to what the project contributes to society. The results showed that it has been difficult to include socio-economic groups when it comes to housing. On the other hand, they are included by making the district accessible to anyone and easy to navigate through. Hagastaden has succeeded in becoming an innovative, versatile and experience-rich city. There is a mix of housing supply, but since the city only consists of newly-manufactured housings, low-income earners cannot afford to move there. It is acknowledged to be a challenge to include the socio-economic group, but it is also pointed out that the current housing policy is the reason why the situation is as it is today.

The purpose of our study is to examine the case managers reasoning and descriptions of empowerment as a method in their social work from a comprehensively perspective including family members. To manage with this purpose we interviewed two case managers, two clients with mental disabilities and five family members. We have come to the conclusion that the case managers works more consist of advocacy than empowerment. Despite that we have found that the long term goal for the case mangers work is to give the clients tools for empowerment. Our results also show that the clients feel that they have gained and increased their ability to do things by themselves and to be a part of the community. The family members feel that they have been empowered because of that the case managers have given them advises of how they can support the clients in a better way, which have released them from family burdens.

De senaste decennierna har kommunerna i allt större utsträckning initierat nya stadsutvecklingsprojekt längs med sina vattenfronter. Det handlar i många fall om hamnområden som tidigare varit aktiva industrier och verksamheter. Genom att utnyttja dessa hamnområden kan kommunerna förverkliga sina ambitioner att skapa nya attraktiva och dynamiska stadsmiljöer. Vidare ser man dessa hamnområden som ett sätt att knyta an vattnet med stadens mest centrala delar, en slags förlängning som växer. Det är vidare också ett sätt för kommunerna att stärka sin ”image” som moderna och innovativa städer. Den främsta ambitionen är att skapa så kallade ”levande stad” i vattennära lägen. Det här arbetet har utifrån detta format två teoretiska utgångspunkter ”levande stad” och ”vattenfrontsprojekt”. Med utgångspunkt i dessa teorier har ett planförslag utformats för att visa på hur fysisk planering kan konkret möjliggöra den “levande staden”. Platsen för planförslaget utspelar sig i Nyhamnen i Malmö, beläget strax norr om Malmö Centralstation och som inom sfären för stadsplanering i regionen benämns som ”ett stadsutvecklingsområde med Södra Sveriges mest centrala läge”.

Past research demonstrates that fearful faces lead to an increase in temporal and a decrease in spatial gap detection, an effect proposed to be caused by a flow of input to the magnocellular pathways from the amygdala to the visual system (Bocanegra & Zeelenberg, 2009). The amygdala is also active for positive and arousing stimuli, including happy faces. The current study extends past research by presenting happy facial cues just before a gap detection task. Facial stimuli (i.e., happy/neutral faces) were presented in the periphery of the receptive field and quickly followed by a Landolt circle. Half of the participants were asked to detect a temporal gap and half a spatial gap. Response accuracy of gap detection was measured using signal detection theory. Consistent with past research on fearful faces, positive expressions were expected to facilitate temporal gap detection but not spatial gap detection when happy faces were used as cues in gap detection tasks. The current study found no difference in spatial or temporal gap detection given the emotional cue that preceded gap detection on each trial. Positive emotion did not appear to have the same impact as fear on the amygdala and visual areas involving attention.

Leadership is a phenomenon studied in all cultures (Murdock, 1967), yet representation in the diversity of influential leaders is often limited (Moon, 1996). In order to understand the full breadth of leadership scholarship, it is essential that research focuses on how leadership is both enacted and communicated in underrepresented groups. A group that is currently facing marginalization from dominant culture is the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBT) community. With no national anti-discrimination law in place to protect the individuals belonging to this community (American Civil Liberties Union, 2016) it is vital to understand how leaders within this marginalized group are motivating others to fight to enact change. While influential organizations like The Human Rights Campaign (HRC) are fighting for social justice on a national level, it is important to understand how local organizations are engaging in communicative leadership to motivate others to enact change in their own community. This study seeks to understand how leadership is communicated within a local LGBT rights organization (given the pseudonym the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender Campaign, or LGBTC) and to identify the ways LGBT leaders motivate others to enact social change. Using ethnographic methodology, the researcher observed four monthly board meetings held by this group (lasting approximately an hour and a half each) and conducted a focus-group interview where the participants confirmed observations and answered follow-up questions from the ethnographic observations. A qualitative thematic analysis revealed two common themes: the first theme, cohesive communication, was exemplified through organizational procedures that allowed for collective discussion and expression of individuality by emphasizing and depending on group members’ personal expertise. The second theme, proactive communication, emerged through group members’ communication to evoke tenacious defense strategies to counter the opposition and engage in outreach with external organizations. These leadership communication behaviors resulted in two critical implications on the theoretical and practical levels. In regards to the theoretical implications, LGBT leaders, who have been typically characterized as predominantly transformational, were found to enact leadership outside of that typology, actually engaging in relational styles through shared leadership, communicating in a way that relies on interaction and emotional expression. On a practical level, other marginalized groups could benefit from inclusivity, or the mode of collective leadership this particular LGBT Rights Group engaged in. By including multiple voices and having a variety of minority representation, the LGBTC was able to successfully motivate community change. Other marginalized groups experiencing social injustice may be able to motivate others to enact change by adopting this mode of collective communication through shared leadership.

Skolans styrdokument betonar vikten av arbete med medier i grundskolan. Syftet med denna studie är att få en inblick i hur läroplanens och kursplanernas intentioner med medieundervisning i grundskolan kan omsättas i praktiken. Min empiriska undersökning grundar sig i observationer och intervjuer med lärare på två skolor som har valt att satsa på en utveckling med hjälp av mediearbete. Den problematik som finns kring medieundervisning går att utläsa även på dessa skolor. Även om skolorna har kommit långt med sitt mediearbete är det tydligt att utvecklingen av detta arbete är beroende av eldsjälar som tar till sig styrdokumentens visioner och gör dem till verklighet.

The purpose of this project is to explore the historical image of Hell in Medieval Europe as an agent of socialization for illiterate Christian communities. The project focuses on a literary work, Tundale’s Vision, written in 1149 C.E in Cashel, Ireland. Tundale’s Vision came from a genre of vision literature derived from popular oracular folk tradition surrounding the image of Hell that served the purpose of socializing Christian communities to certain social norms and stigmas presented by the author. Vision literature would be used by preachers in vernacular sermons throughout the Medieval period in order to reinforce moral and social messages presented in to their congregations, and it drew much of its themes and imagery from folk traditions in order to be more relatable to local communities. This research provides a historical context from which this genre of literature emerged including a discourse on how it gained power as an agent of socialization in Medieval Europe. Time is devoted to the historical state of what are generally considered primary agents of socialization in human societies throughout Medieval Europe, and research reveals that much of these agents, aside from religion, were inaccessible to the majority of Medieval Europeans, especially those of the lower class. Additionally, this project provides information on the rise in popularity of the artistic image of Hell in the Medieval period. The analysis of Tundale’s Vision, a work that emerged from this environment saturated with artistic depictions of Hell, reconstructs potential social norms and stigmas of 12th century Ireland relating to a contemporary reform movement within the Irish Christian church. This analysis provides the historical origin of many images commonly associated with the popular Medieval conception of Hell as it appears in Tundale’s Vision, and it analyzes the use of the fear of a painful afterlife in order spread and reinforce ideals presented by the Christian Church. Much of this project draws from the scholarly works of Gwenfair Adams and John Seymour who produced research concerning Tundale’s Vision, other works of vision literature, and their impact on Medieval Christian communities. The power of religious artwork in the process of socialization in Medieval Ireland should become apparent throughout this work.

Les travaux de recherche ont abordé la responsabilité soociale de l'entreprise presque uniqument sous l'angle des objectifs économiques de l'organisation, l'assimilant parfois à un outil de communication, d'autres fois à un instrument de motivation et, dans d'autres cas encore, à un vecteur coutaux de dilapidation des ressources. Cette étude s'axe au contraire sur l'influence sociale réelle de ces politiques d'organisation. Pour cela, elle se concentre sur le créneau des organisations sociales ayant la caractéristique de se voir reconnue une influence établie et étudie la question particulière de l'impact des évènements constitutifs sur le développement de la vision organisationnelle des entrepreneurs des secteur sociaux et éducatifs. L'action publique, dans les pays démocratiques se fonde au moins sur deux moyens d'action. Le premier consiste à élire des représentants qui agissent au moins sur deux moyens d'action. Le premier consiste à élire des représentants qui agissent au nom des intérêts du public face au pouvoir exécutif. Le second est porté à l'existence par l'exercice personnel d'une responsabilité sociale et par l'accomplissement d'actions relevant du leadership pour améliore les choses. Dès lors, se pose la question de savoir ce qui motive des individus à choisir la seconde option et à prendre en charge une responsabilité sociale donnée. Cette recherche tente d'appréhender les motivations de dix entrepreneurs sociaux (huit hommes et deux femmes) à travers leurs récits personnels. Elle montre comment des événements décisifs dans leurs vies ont conduit chacun d'eux à établir une organisation du Tiers secteur pour mettre en œuvre une initiative sociale ou éducative dont l’analyse des résultats démontre que des événements décisifs ont influencé les entrepreneurs aux niveaux personnel, organisationnel et social. L'apport de cette étude tient à sa contribution à la compréhension de la question de savoir comment des événements décisifs influencent l'identité personnelle des entrepreneurs ainsi que leurs visions et leurs buts. Au niveau organisationnel, cette recherche explore comment la vision de l'entrepreneur est traduite dans la vision de l'organisation, sa structure et ses méthodes de travail, jusqu'à devenir un instrument conçu pour atteindre des objectifs personnels. L'action de ces organisations dans le Tiers secteur correspond à une forme de critique du secteur public exprimant la vision de leurs fondatuers qui s'incarne ici et maintenant. Au niveau social, l'étude analyse la façon dont les entrepreneurs prennent sur eux la responsabilité sociale pour produire un service qui ne connaît aucun équivalent et qui répond à un besoin identifié. Les résultats de la recherche indiquent que la plupart des entrepreneurs étudiés s'efforcent de créer différents types de partenariats avec l'administration afin d'institutionnaliser les changements auxquels ils aspirent.

Les etudes de l'honneur, au sein des societes mediterraneennes, se sont exclusivement consacrees aux manifestations violentes (vendettas et crimes d'honneur). Or, la violence n'est pas la forme limitative de l'honneur. Ainsi, dans les societes berberes rurales (haut-atlas et sud-est marocain), la notion apparait comme l'expression generale d'un systeme culturel. Pour mieux comprendre les realitesdu theme, les questionnements sur les representations s'interessent a tous les moments de la vie quotidienne. Aussi, la demarche consiste a comprendre le fonctionnement << pacifique >> de l'honneur completant et modulant ainsi le volet bien connu de ses formes spectaculaires. Il est ici question de l'ancrage quotidien de l'honneur dans une formation sociale donnee : la communaute villageoise berbere. L'honneur est tantot explicite et codifie comme dans le langage, le domaine juridique (droit coutumier), et les rituels du mariage. Tantot implicite, l'honneur se manifeste alors par le biais des representations symboliques et collectives (mythe d'origine et legendaire). En effet, l'honneur fournit un cadre de reference aux individus et offre une explication culturelle aux phenomenes sociaux tel que l'origine de la societe, les relations entre les genres, la hierarchie. L'honneur inscrit les individus dans un statut de sexe defini par des normes comportementales strictes. L'ideologie de l'honneur regle ainsi les relations entre hommes, les pratiques sociales et culturelles. L'honneur produit et reproduit l'imaginaire collectif, celui de la purete. Ainsi, le sens de l'honneur est au coeur meme d'une manipulation genealogique confortant les statuts d'honorabilite dans leur purete originelle. Au final, la recherche debouche sur de nombreuses interrogations retrospectives : comment le terrain conduit de la notion d'honneur a celle de la genealogie ? si l'honneur apparait bien comme un phenomene social total, quel peut etre son poids dans les transformations sociales dues a la modernite ?

The strong emphasis on ecclesiology in the work of Stanley Hauerwas, John Milbank and others associated with ‘the new ecclesiology’1 brings theological challenges to the contemporary move to recast practical theology’s attention to church and society as ‘public theology’. A historical reading of three key examples of practice in the tradition of twentieth century Scottish reformed-ecumenical reflection on ‘church and society’ displays a rich seam of reflection on ecclesiology, with some significant affinities to ‘the new ecclesiology’. The work of Stanley Hauerwas is used to develop a critical reading of the practices of theology and the theologies of (church and world) practice embedded in each example. This leads to the claim that ‘the new ecclesiology’ offers practical theology a way of articulating the church-world relationship and expressing the social, political and cultural witness of Christianity within Scotland which is to be preferred to the rubric of ‘public theology’. Its appeal for practical theology in the face of church decline and the marginalisation of theological discourse within liberal culture lies not in a temptation towards the comforts of “sectarianism”, but in its confession of the “ironic” character of the politics of Jesus and the reign of God. Its promise for practical theology lies in its claim to offer a narrative display of how theology as “church pragmatics” can mediate a fruitful social, political and cultural imagining of the world Scotland is and the world it is called to be.

A survey foi viabilizada com o questionÃrio fechado, onde as respostas deveriam ser marcadas numa escala Likert de cinco pontos, enviado a 246 indÃstrias que fabricam itens de diferentes segmentos (TÃxtil e Moda, EletrÃnico, SaÃde, Higiene e Beleza, Casa, Lazer e Brinquedos, e Alimentos) os quais sÃo comercializados no Varejo de Departamentos do Brasil. AlÃm disso, os stakeholders que estÃo diretamente ligados Ãs indÃstrias respondentes foram abordados em dois agrupamentos de questÃes, onde no primeiro buscou-se identificar a pressÃo de cada um deles do ponto de vista dos seus direcionamentos para que as prÃticas de RSC sejam uma realidade na indÃstria e, o segundo, buscou identificar a percepÃÃo das indÃstrias com relaÃÃo Ã forÃa do ambiente de alguns dos paÃses listados quanto Ãs suas preocupaÃÃes e, com isso, pressÃes visando a efetivaÃÃo da RSC. A pesquisa revelou que os resultados estÃo alinhados com o material teÃrico explorado e indica, a partir da taxa de retorno dos respondentes de 58,13%, que o setor de EletrÃnicos apresenta maior nÃmero de adoÃÃo das prÃticas levantadas dentre os cinco setores explorados. AlÃm disso, apontou que o stakeholder que mais pressiona a indÃstria a desenvolver aÃÃes responsÃveis Ã a MÃdia, seguido pelo Governo, justificado teoricamente pela preocupaÃÃo das organizaÃÃes em serem obedientes Ãs regras impostas pelos poderes pÃblicos ou pela preocupaÃÃo de manter uma boa imagem de empresa responsÃvel e, com isso, manter-se competitiva. AlÃm disso, constatou-se que hÃ um movimento de desenvolvimento de responsabilidades corporativas voltadas para o ambiente interno das organizaÃÃes, onde as preocupaÃÃes com os trabalhadores e com a qualidade na produÃÃo apresentam-se como prioritÃrias dentre as aÃÃes desenvolvidas, diferentemente das preocupaÃÃes com os agentes externos e meio ambiente. Por outro lado, sabe-se, a partir das interaÃÃes com os diversos respondentes e pelas revisÃes teÃricas, que a RSC estÃ muito longe de ser uma realidade ideal no ambiente institucional brasileiro, sendo necessÃrio um maior envolvimento dos importantes stakeholders, como os consumidores, por exemplo, que possuem um grande poder de pressionar as organizaÃÃes a desenvolverem diferentes tipos de posturas responsÃveis mas que desconhecem ou nÃo utilizam-se deste poder.

The global trends of democratisation and privatisation that swept much of the developing world in the 1980s and 1990s led to significant changes in the conceptualisation, organisation and performance of the media. In Africa democratisation attained a new meaning with associated processes of liberalisation of broadcasting to end the monopoly of broadcasting by the state. The private media of the liberalised market is increasingly putting the public media system, both broadcast and print, under serious competition, and forcing them to adjust to changing circumstances. The New Vision newspaper in Uganda is one such public service media organisations that are owned by the state and yet have to compete in the new more democratic and liberalised environment. This study set out to explore the extent to which state-ownership impacts on The New Vision’s social role. Using both qualitative and quantitative methods of date collection, I have established the that although The New Vision is a public service medium for which government remains the major source of news, it does not in most cases give the state more or preferentially prominent coverage at the expense of other interest groups in society. On contrary, basing of the amount of coverage of civil society I established that The New Vision enabled the various groups public sphere to interact. The newspaper to an extent also plays the democratic role of monitoring government although there was little evidence of monitoring of corporate abuse. The nature of The New Vision Statute, and the global trends that have changed the conduct of official and private business, have rendered the theories on the 1980s’ development media theories increasingly inapplicable, forcing The New Vision to develop its own version of development journalism that is socially relevant. The study recommends that whereas much of The New Vision Statute is progressive, sections of it should be removed to protect the newspaper from being manipulated by government functionaries, if the it is to continue enabling the public sphere. The newspaper should also increase its monitoring of corporate abuse, and make internal reforms to improve the coverage of development related issues.

Cette thèse s'inscrit dans une volonté de fournir une représentation synthétique de ce qu'est une entreprise. La question de recherche centrale est ainsi : « Comment le concept de vision peut-il servir à appréhender le pilotage de l'entreprise et à en donner une représentation globale ? » Pour y répondre nous adoptons une démarche abductive caractérisée par des allers-retours entre littérature et terrain. Notre méthodologie est qualitative. Notre étude empirique est constituée de 65 entretiens semi-directifs centrés avec des dirigeants de 11 grands groupes français. L'analyse de contenu avec constitution d'un dictionnaire des thèmes est retenue pour traiter les données recueillies. Notre travail propose une mise en ordre de la littérature en 4 niveaux successifs et complémentaires (une vision attribut du leader ; une vision partagée voire co-crée par l'organisation ; une vision comme représentation collective et enfin, la gestion de la diversité comme contrepoids au risque d'une focalisation trop importante en direction de la vision poursuivie.) Notre recherche fait également émerger différents profils d'entreprise correspondant à différentes articulations des mécanismes de pilotage (valeurs fondamentales, stratégies, paradigme, etc.) autour de la vision. Ainsi, notre travail met à jour et propose une représentation d'un mode de « pilotage par la vision » où ces mécanismes encadrent la cognition, l'action et les stratégies au sein de l'organisation et les orientent vers l'atteinte de la vision. Plus largement, notre thèse montre que piloter une organisation exige qu'une attention particulière soit portée à 3 points : l'adaptation des actions au contexte dans lequel l'entreprise se trouve, la cohérence des stratégies avec les autres mécanismes de pilotage et le maintien d'une vigilance constante quant au dosage des actions décidées et à leur mise en œuvre. Plus que l'application de « recettes », le pilotage d'une entreprise est ainsi une affaire de « fine tuning ».

The aim of this project was to examine age-related declines in the processing of spatial frequency information. Some current theories of spatial vision state that humans process high spatial frequency information separately or differently from low spatial frequency information. There is also evidence that normal aging may affect the processing of some spatial frequencies more than others. Specifically, it has been proposed that older adults have deficits in their ability to process low spatial frequency information, and that older adults process visual information more slowly in general than young adults. Eight observers in each of three age groups were tested on a localization task. The spatial frequency content of distractors presented in the visual field was varied along with speed of presentation and clarity of the display. A progressive loss in the extent of the functional visual field was demonstrated. Results were consistent with the position that older adults experience declines in their ability to process temporal information, and that older adults do process visual information at a slower rate than young adults.

My dissertation examines critical engagements with the "new urbanist" movement in late 20th and early 21st century U.S. novels, including Karen Tei Yamashita's Tropic of Orange, Helena María Viramontes's Their Dogs Came with Them, and Colson Whitehead's Zone One. I argue that these novels reflect new urbanism's valorization of neighborhoods that are walkable, green, and diverse, even as they critique the movement's inattention to environmental injustice and the long history of urban rights movements. Moreover, I argue that contemporary fiction's engagement with new urbanism has driven formal and stylistic innovation in the novel. The "new urbanist novel," I argue, blends elements of the postmodern literary mode, such as metafiction and narrative fragmentation, with elements that are arguably anti-postmodern, such as representations of stable collective identity and utopian visions of organic urban community.

Species-specific differences in visual acuity have been demonstrated across species of cichlids differing in social and habitat complexity. What is the role of plasticity? A visual acuity assay on two species of fish reared in different habitat and social complexity was used to study brain plasticity in Xenotilapia flavipinnis and Asprotilapia leptura juveniles. The X. flavipinnis lives in sandy habitats and schools as juveniles. These fry were raised in an impoverished social environment in one case and an enriched habitat environment in another. The A. leptura lives in rocky habitats naturally. These fry were raised in an impoverished habitat environment. All conditions were compared to control groups with natural social and habitat conditions. I found that a change in social complexity had a plastic effect on visual acuity but a change in habitat complexity in both cases did not

ABSTRACT Title: The dialogue of corporate governance and corporate social responsibility Subtitle: Based on entrepreneur’s values-based vision Keywords: Corporate governance, Corporate Social Responsibility, Values-Based Service, Values, New Governance Problem: Scholars and the business world have often viewed CG and CSR as parallel. But because globalization and the existence of MNEs has weakened government control, NGOs and other stakeholders are pressuring MNEs for transparency, accountability and disclosure in their global activities which involve social, environmental and ethical dilemmas. Stakeholders are also pressuring companies for values resonance. Purpose: The purpose of this research is to assess the integration of corporate governance and CSR based on an entrepreneur’s values-based vision. Methodology: This exploratory research was conducted using a qualitative approach and the case study research method. Data collected included IKEA annual reports from 2003-2010 and external reports as well as information from relevant scientific articles and research books. A deductive approach was taken to analyze data through an interpretative procedure. Conclusions: The VBS of a company takes into consideration CSR and all resource integrators. However, CSR is not sufficient in itself to create a fully VBS company. There is need for CG principles to accomplish CSR strategies, goals and values that must be in resonance with other stakeholders’ values. Thus New Governance which is empowered by NGOs is a catalyst for the convergence and integration of CG and CSR in companies. We think that the business case of IKEA needs new governance to become a complete VBS.

O tema Responsabilidade Social Corporativa tem sido alvo de inúmeros debates. Com isso, é relevante saber se e como esse tema está sendo difundido e discutido em salas de aula da graduação em Administração. O propósito deste trabalho foi estudar a visão que os estudantes de Administração têm da RSC e do seu ensino nos cursos de graduação. Foram realizadas 30 entrevistas com alunos de Administração do Rio de Janeiro próximos ao período de formatura. Os resultados mostraram que os entrevistados se preocupam com o tema, pois consideram a RSC importante para a prática da Administração. Muitos entrevistados consideram o espaço dado para o tema insuficiente e que se deveria dar mais espaço. Também foi apontado que a abordagem poderia ser melhorada, pois é, às vezes, superficial, mesmo que os conteúdos passados sejam corretos. Vários pesquisados declararam ter aprendido mais sobre o assunto em meios externos, como revistas, jornais, trabalho. A maioria dos entrevistados apresentou uma visão restrita da definição de RSC, abordando somente algumas poucas dimensões, não demonstrando conhecimento sobre a totalidade do assunto. Muitos entrevistados possuem questionamentos sobre RSC, essencialmente quanto ao próprio conceito e às aplicações na prática da Administração. Muitos pesquisados consideram que sua faculdade não é capaz de formar gestores socialmente responsáveis, já que o tema não é muito discutido. Também foi observado que aqueles que tiveram experiência na área em suas atividades profissionais ou acadêmicas se mostraram mais seguros em relação ao assunto, porém, ainda são poucos aqueles que utilizam a RSC na prática.
The topic of Corporate Social Responsibility has been largely discussed. Thus, it is important to know how this issue is being discussed in undergraduate classes of Business Administration. The purpose of this study was to explore the student’s vision of CSR and their view about the teaching of CSR in undergraduate courses. Thirty Administration students of Rio de Janeiro were interviewed. The results showed that the respondents are concerned about this issue, since they consider that it is important for the practice of Administration. Some respondents said that the space given to CSR in the university is inadequate and, thus, it should be greater. They also said that the approach could be improved, since sometimes it is considered a superficial approach, although the content is correct. Many respondents learned more about it out of university, such as in magazines, newspapers, or at work. Many respondents had a more restricted view about the definition of CSR. The majority addressed only a few dimensions of it, showing little knowledge about it. Some respondents have doubts about CSR, especially basic questions, concerning the concept of the theme. Others have also showed doubts regarding the practice of CSR. Many respondents believe that the university where they study is not able to train socially responsible managers, since the theme is not much discussed. Moreover, it was observed that those who had experience in the area were more secure during the interviews; however, there were few respondents who had used CSR in practice.
