Rettferdighet – også for barn? En teoretisk analyse av John Rawls og Martha C. Nussbaums rettferdighetsteori, sett i forhold til utfordringer det norske samfunnet har med hensyn til barnefattigdom og barns rettssikkerhet.
Masteroppgave offentlig politikk og ledelse- Universitetet i Agder, 2015 Den første utgaven av de Forente Nasjoners Menneskerettighetserklæring(1948) kom i stand etter alvorlige overgrep mot verdens sivilbefolkning under andre verdenskrig. Barnekonvensjonen ble vedtatt av FNs generalforsamling i1989 for å tydeliggjøre for verden det felles ansvaret vi har med hensyn til å gi barn beskyttelse i henhold til artiklene og menneskerettighetene (fn.no, Barns rettigheter).

We argue conclusively that the list of capabilities could strengthen and supplement the content of the principle of child’s best interests. …
You realise you are better when you want to live, want to go out, want to see people: Recovery as assemblage
Background: The lack of social and material perspectives in descriptions of recovery processes is almost common in recovery research. Aim: Consequently, we investigated recovery stories and how people with mental health and/or addiction challenges included social and material aspects in these stories.

Results: We found that narratives of recovery became assemblages where humans and their environments co-exist and are interdependent. Conclusion: As such, narratives about recovery are about everyday assembla…
