I uppsatsen studeras de huvudsakliga instrumenten för biologisk mångfald i rättsakterna för EU:s gemensamma jordbrukspolitik (CAP). Syftet är att studera hur dessa instrument förhåller sig till de principiella förutsättningar som krävs för att den biologiska mångfalden i jordbrukslandskapen ska kunna bevaras. Dessa instrument utvärderas därför utifrån den sjunde av de så kallade Malawiprinciperna.In this thesis the main instruments for sustaining biodiversity in the legal acts of the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) are studied. The aim is to study how these instruments relate to the basic prerequisites that are needed to protect biodiversity in the arable landscape. The instruments are therefore evaluated based on principle seven of the so-called Malawi Principles. The Malawi Princip

En ny anställningsform som växt fram i digitaliseringens fotspår är arbete som utförs via digitala plattformar. Plattformsarbete är en del av en större pågående strukturell förändring, nämligen flexibiliseringen av arbetsmarknaden. Denna strukturella förändring gör att den nuvarande gränsen mellan arbetstagare och uppdragstagare suddas ut. Begreppet arbetstagare anger gränserna för arbetslagstiftnWork supplied through digital platforms is a new form of employment that has emerged in the course of digitalization. Platform work is part of a bigger ongoing structural shift, namely the flexibilisation of working life. This structural shift blurs out the distinction between an employee and a self-employed worker.

Testamentet uppstod i Sverige på 1200-talet, som resultatet av kyrkligt inflytande. Testamentsrätten, som idag finns i ärvdabalken, har formats långsamt sedan dess. Först på 1930-talet fick testamentet sin nuvarande form i testamentslagen. Enligt gällande rätt utgörs ett ordinärt testamente av en skriftlig handling som undertecknats av testatorn och bevittnats av två vittnen. Vid nödfall eller sjuThe Swedish will first appeared in Sweden during the 13th century as a result of the church’s influence. The law of wills, a part of the Swedish inheritance code, is the result of an evolution extending from the 13th century into the 1930’s when the will was given its current form prescribed by law. An ordinary will requries a written document, signed by the testator and witnessed by two wittnesse

I svensk rätt saknas en rättslig förpliktelse att hjälpa nödställda. Genom garantläran är det dock möjligt att ålägga personer med handlingsplikt. Uppsatsen syftar till att undersöka vilka relationer som kan leda till garantställning och om garantläran med hänsyn till dagens familjebild är i behov av förändring. För att uppfylla uppsatsens syfte har rättsdogmatisk metod använts. Under 1960-taletIn Swedish law there is no legal obligation to assist people in need. Through the doctrine of omission responsibility (Swedish: garantläran) it is possible to impose an obligation to act. This essay will investigate which relations can lead to omission responsibility and whether the doctrine of omission responsibility needs to be reformed due to changes in family formation in today´s society.

I svensk rätt finns bestämmelser om skadebegräsning 70 § köplagen. Att bedöma huruvida denna skadebegränsningsplikt ska gälla också utomobligatoriskt har genom åren vållat rättsvetenskapsmännen vissa bekymmer. Denna framställning har till syfte att undersöka och klargöra innebörden av skadebegränsningsplikten i svensk rätt. Särskilt fokus ligger här på de lojalitetshänsyn som anses motivera skadebIn Swedish law there are provisions on mitigation in Section 70 of the Sale of Goods act.

The classic division of state formation literature often discuss the state in concepts of capital and coercion, stressing the dimension of coercion in true Weberian spirit. This essay however finds a different path and a somewhat alternative way of thinking about states. Through applying the hierarchy of needs in analyzing the period of 1100-1790, this essay defines a certain number of ‘material p

Domstolens bevisvärdering av sakkunnigutlåtanden såsom rättsintyg har tidigare uppmärksammats för att vara otillräcklig och generös. Samtidigt har rättsintygens kvalitet fått mycket kritik. År 2006 skedde dock den så kallade rättsintygsreformen och denna uppsats utreder vad reformen har inneburit för rättsintygens bevisstyrka. Syftet är att belysa de nuvarande förhållanden som råder vid rättsintygLegal science has earlier observed that the court’s assessment of expert evidence such as forensic reports can be inadequate and generous. At the same time the quality of forensic reports has been criticised. However, in 2006 a new law and regulation that regulates forensic reports came into force, and the so-called “forensic report reform” was implemented. This essay examines the meaning of the r

Det svenska straffrättsliga systemet bygger på att endast fysiska personer kan begå brott och straffas för dessa. För näringsidkare, såväl fysiska som juridiska personer, har det istället införts särskilda sanktioner såsom företagsbot. Någon särskild reglering av företagsbotsprocessen och näringsidkarens processuella rättigheter vid en talan om företagsbot har däremot inte införts. Samtidigt uppstThe Swedish criminal justice system is based on the fact that only physical persons can commit crimes and be punished for them. For traders, both physical and legal persons, special sanctions such as a corporate fine have been introduced. However, no special regulations of neither the corporate fine procedure nor the procedural rights for traders, when pursuing criminal charges of a corporate fine

Abstract: Since the implementation of the European community in the 1950’s support for the integration process was founded on the necessity of establishing an ever-closer Union among the citizens of Europe. There was an overall belief that support for a European community would increase over time as a result of the opportunities it created and the functional pressures that followed. The public su

The Swedish welfare model has historically been financially dependent on the mining industry, which has played an important role in the Swedish economic development. Many mines are located in Swedish Sápmi, a region traditionally inhabited by the Sami people, which has led to conflicts regarding land use and land rights. In this essay I use critical discourse analysis to examine how the Swedish po

The last few years has seen the world slipping back into the classic dividing lines of the Cold War - marked perhaps most clearly by Russias invasion of Crimea in 2014. At the same time, a new phenomenen has entered modern politics. We discuss fake news, information warfare and election meddling - again with Russia as a proposed assailant. What is the driving force behind this? And is it something

This paper aims to examine the roots of the Egyptian revolution of 2011, by tracing the vital variables for mobilization to flourish. This is made possible through the creation of a mobilization model based on the theoretical framework of Rational Choice and Collective Action, in combination with Charles Tilly’s writings on the subject. The model’s variables can then be examined in depth through a
