Design: The plan of this thesis is to analyze five interviews and two magazines with focus on following question: Is the fact that women hunt possible to explain with the individualization process?

Conclusion/Results: Hunting has changed recently. More and more women start hunting. Reasons and starting point why that is fact can for example be taken out of individualization theories. Women start hunting because society is changing and how they are getting individualized. (Less)
