ISSN: 1468-2397Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: SociologyNotes: The aim of this article is to explore how officials' institutionalized patterns of acting can be useful for understanding encounters between immigrant clients and representatives of a welfare organization. The data indicate that there are two fundamental social mechanisms at work: the materialization of the organizational ideology, and the cultural filter. Both have an impact on the type of action strategy chosen by an official in handling client problems. An analysis of the strategy outcomes according to the social mechanisms shows that: 1) The outcome will depend on the client's consent to the organizational ideology. Immigrant clients more often than other clients are assumed to have different views on, for example, sickness, work capability and retirement age; 2) Comparing clients to the image of an ideal-typical long-term sick person can lead to the definition of clients with different cultural backgrounds or those of immigrant status as deviant, and therefore problematic to deal with; 3) The cultural filter through which the officials interpret their clients' situation can be an important obstacle in understanding the responses of immigrant clients.The study was conducted at a local social insurance office in a suburban area of a major Swedish city. Immigrants represented approximately 60% of the long-term sick people. The empirical material consists of observations of encounters and interviews with the officials working with rehabilitation of the long-term sick.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

ISSN: 1468-2397Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: SociologyNotes: This article presents a decision-making model that gives a structure to institutionalized strategies used by rehabilitation workers in the face-to-face encounters with clients at a social insurance office. The model is developed from my 24 observations of encounters between rehabilitation workers and long-term sick people, and my conversations with the rehabilitation workers about their impressions of these very encounters. The strategies are tightly connected to the rehabilitation workers' efforts to convey the working-track principle. Two different main strategies have been identified. The reinforcement strategy is used when a client seems to consent to the working-track principle, and the motivating strategy is used when a client does not seem to consent. When the motivating strategy is used some dilemmas of the role of the rehabilitation workers are actualized. The dilemmas concern a tension between, on the one hand, what the rehabilitation workers are supposed to be doing (care-advocate or administer) and, on the other hand, how they are doing it (flexibly or strictly). Acting within the discrepancy of the role, the rehabilitation workers try to solve the dilemmas. Four different ideal-typical strategies have been identified: the caring professional strategy, the caring amateur strategy, the bureaucratic administrator strategy and the coordinator strategy. All of these acting strategies are represented in the observed encounters. Further studies are needed in order to make statements on the representativeness of each strategy.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -

Published 2005Staff ViewISSN: 1365-3083Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005Topics: MedicineNotes: Respiratory tract infections, allergies and otitis media are common problems in early childhood. Our aim was to evaluate in a longitudinal community-based cohort study the association between maturation of immunoglobulin (Ig) and mannan-binding lectin (MBL) responses and disease manifestations in the first 4 years of life. Sustained low levels of IgA proved the strongest single indicator of susceptibility for recurrent otitis media (P = 0.008) and respiratory tract infections (P = 0.02), and this condition was also associated with low production of IgG subclasses. About 7% of the cohort had sustained low levels of MBL (〈0.4 mg/l). Low MBL did not predispose to any ailments studied, but children with low IgA and recurrent otitis media had relatively low MBL at birth, which failed to increase during the study period and was significantly reduced at the age of 4 years (P = 0.04). MBL levels increased from birth to 2 years (P 〈 0.0001) and were higher in children than in adults (P = 0.001). The increase was 1.9-fold in children with no recorded clinical events and 1.7-fold in children with asthma or infections, but significantly lower, 1.2-fold, in children with recurrent otitis media. Low levels of IgA within the normal range may reveal disease susceptibility not detected by conventional criteria. Slow maturation of Ig appears to be the main factor of susceptibility during childhood, but a strong corollary role for MBL is indicated by the high levels produced during childhood as well as the precipitation of disease in children with low levels of MBL and Ig.Type of Medium: Electronic ResourceURL: -
