Inom den arbetsmarknadspolitiska verksamheten är begreppen arbetslös och företagare, samt deras förhållande till varandra, inte närmre definierat i författning.

Med 1944 års djurskyddslag införs de första djurförsöksbestämmelserna i svensk rätt. Debatten om djurförsökens reglering hade då under lång tid varit föremål för ett flertal motioner i den svenska riksdagen, utan att resultera i någon lagstiftning.

Är en arbetstagare i arbetsrättslig mening alltid arbetstagare i skatterättslig bemärkelse, och tvärtom? Och vad är egentligen en F-skattare i juridisk mening? På det arbetsrättsliga området är arbetstagarbegreppet av mycket central betydelse. Tillämpligheten av de arbetsrättsliga lagarna utgår från arbetstagarbegreppet. Dessa lagar är utformade som skyddslagstiftningar för arbetstagare eftersom Is the definition of employee according to Swedish labour law similar to the definition of employee according to Swedish tax legislation?

Den lagstiftning som låg till grund för ingreppen hade som syfte att förhindra ”mindervärdiga individer” från att bli föräldrar. I flera fall skedde steriliseringen utan ett frivilligt samtycke från pa-tienten. Uppsatsen syftar till att skapa en förståelse för varför och hur en så-dan lag kunBetween 1934 and 1975 over 60 000 individuals were sterilized in Sweden and a predominant majority of the patients were female.
