| Summary: | Abstract Växjö University, School of Social Sciences Bachelor thesis Title: Varför en rädsla för alternativmedicin? En studie om hur EU’s kosttillskottsdirektiv har implementerats i Sverige. Author: Annica Blomstrand Supervisor: Anne Haglund-Morrissey The aim of this study is to investigate the process of legislation and implementation of the directive of the European Union on the food supplements, focused on member state of Sweden. There are two questions in this study: What was the process of legislation in the period when the Directive on the food supplements became established? and How does the implementation of EU’s decision on the food supplements works in reality? In order to answer these questions, two different methods were used. One was qualitative analysis of the available text and the other one case-study (qualitative including interviews) The conclusion is that the implementation has not been successful. The process of legislation has followed its traditional way, which in its turn did not leave so much space to the thorough implementation of the Directive. Unfortunately, this is a process that overlooks citizens and countries with different premises, affected by the decision.
