- In recent years, lengmo has emerged as a popular and controversial subject in Hong Kong society. Literally meaning naïve young model, lengmo is a relatively new occupation that allows young women who lack the figure of professional models to enter the entertainment industry. These young women, mostly in sexy appearance, become a social phenomenon propelled by local print media. This paper analyzes how Hong Kong print media characterize lengmo by endorsing them as sexualized subjects. These characterizations imply the discourse of sexualizing female bodies. Although seemingly pushing the expression of female sexuality into social spaces, they do not liberate women in pursuit of sexual autonomy. Such implication entails the patriarchal ideology in which the operation of local print media is grounded.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The chapter deals with the question how old pensions and care work for old people have been discussed earlier and at presnt in Sweden. The chapeter starts with a brief overview if the Swedish welfare model, focussed on two distinct periods: the 1950s - 1960s with a rapid econmic growth and the present period of economic decline. After a long expansion period of a tax - financed public sector under the name of "productive welfare strategy", calculations indicated a state economy in imbalance. Resources did not increase at the same pace as the numbers of elderly. An organizationnal reconstruction of the public sector started with market solutions, encouragement of an increase in voluntary work and family based care. A new pensions system was introduced in the 1990s, and higher expectations of quality at a lower cost turned questions of staff teaining and qualifications to highly strategical themes. A new anti-discrimination Act came into force in 2009. The chapter is finalized by a presentation of some of the research performed within the research profile Care Work and Social Gerontology at the Department of Social Work at Umea University. Issues like social capital and care work, old womens life stories, family obligations in transition, attitudes to old people including ageism as well as training for care workers are issues researched within the team.
