Inom primärvåden i Oxie har det sedan 2004 på försök prövats att låta människor med utmattningssyndrom få psykodynamisk gruppterapi.

This thesis sets out to answer (1) why the Swedish municipalities of Malmö and Lund choose to become certified as Fairtrade Cities, that is; to adopt and promote Fair Trade regulations as stipulated by the Fairtrade Labelling Organization International, and (2) whether or not municipalities are morally entitled to strive to promote such regulations. In two case studies, interviews with representat
