Med ett politiskt parti anklagat för fascism i riksdagen, och nynazister marscherande på gatorna är frågor om demokrati och frihet viktigare än någonsin. Var bör yttrandefrihetens gränser dras? Bör den överhuvudtaget begränsas? Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att utforska en möjlig lösning till de problem som dagens demokrati står inför. Det här åstadkoms genom en konstruktion av ett konceptuellt With a political party accused of fascism in the Swedish parliament and neo-nazis marching in the streets, questions of democracy and freedom of expression are as important as ever. Where to draw the boundaries of the freedom of expression? Why have, or limit, such freedoms in the first place? The purpose of this thesis is to investigate a possible solution to the problems facing contemporary demo

Barn kan för det första få komma till tals i en vårdnadsutredning eller innan snabbupplysningar sker av socialnämnden. För det andra kan barnet också komma till tals inför rätten. I praktiken har det funnits brister i hur tillämpningen av rätten att koFamily law disputes concerning the custody, residence and contact of children have increased in recent years. Judgments made by the court in the resolution of disputes have significant short and long term consequences for the children involved. The child is not a party to the proceedings.

Corporal punishment of children is a widespread practice across the world. The implications of such violence consist of both physical and mental injuries and children are very vulnerable to such treatment.

Makes arvsrätt infördes i Sverige år 1988 i samband med en större reform på både äktenskapsrättens och arvsrättens område. Den tidigare arvsrättens utformning ansågs vara grundad på en föråldrad syn på både familjen och samhället, och det var dags för en förnyelse. Den efterlevande makens skydd stärktes på de gemensamma bröstarvingarnas bekostnad, men särkullbarnen fick dock behålla sin förtur tilIn 1988, the surviving spouse received the right to inherit before the direct heirs in Sweden. The amendment was part of a larger reformation in the area of inheritance and matrimonial law. The previous formulation of the law was considered to be based on outdated views on society and family, and the time was right for a transformation. The financial security of the spouse was fortified at the exp
Miljöanpassad offentlig upphandling betraktas idag som en viktig del i främjandet av en positiv miljö- och samhällsutveckling. Detta beror dels på den offentliga upphandlingens stora ekonomiska betydelse, dels på att miljöhänsyn är en aspekt av offentlig upphandling som tillmäts allt större betydelse. Genom att ställa miljökrav i offentlig upphandling kan upphandlande myndigheter påverka utbudet aToday, green public procurement is considered an important part of a positive environmental and social development.

This project is an investigation in atmosphere, and an attempt to create a new architectural idiom through the vernacular Japanese building style minka, the ambiance and context of the woods, and, importantly, by exploring whether it is possible to keep the crookedness from the first sketches throughout the whole process, into the completed building. Minka are traditional preindustrial homes for
Soils provide the foundation for human well-being but are increasingly degrading from land use change or types of intensive land use like agriculture. In Europe, soil natural capital is degrading over time and space because of compaction, erosion, and the loss of organic matter. This trend diminishes the soil’s ability to sustain a flow of ecosystem services, which are valuable to human well-being
Equal participation in safe and decent work is a crucial factor for achieving gender equality. Despite this, gender-based obstacles remain as workplaces often fail to ensure the human rights, health, and general wellbeing of their employees, with menstrual health being an especially neglected aspect of the gendered workplace experience. While menstrual health has gained increased attention over th
The study will deal with the strategies used by the Swedish government and the Public Health Agency (FHM) to control the spread of the Covid-19 virus. Initially, the risk of general transmission was considered low and the strategy was to flatten the curve. However, the Swedish approach was criticized for being unclear and not imposing strict restrictions, while others hailed it as an exemplary mod
Uppsatsen behandlar billighetsskälens roll i det svenska påföljdssystemet och analyserar hur dessa har utvecklats i rättstillämpningen samt hur de motiveras och omvärderas i betänkandet En ny straffreform (SOU 2025:66). Billighetsskälen ger uttryck för humanitetsprincipen och syftar till att möjliggöra strafflindring när en påföljd utmätt enbart efter brottets straffvärde skulle framstå som oskäliThis thesis examines the role of billighetsskäl (equity factors) in the Swedish sentencing system and analyses their legal development as well as the rationale behind the proposals presented in A New Penal Reform (SOU 2025:66).

Sedan den 1 juli 2013 råder inte längre något steriliseringskrav för personer som vill ändra sin juridiska könstillhörighet. Denna uppsats undersöker kritiskt den nya lagstiftningen i 1 kap. 10-14 §§ FB, vilken trädde i kraft den 1 januari 2019 som en följd av det avskaffade steriliseringskravet. Innan lagstiftningen trädde i kraft tillämpades de ursprungliga reglerna i FB analogt på transpersonerSince July 1, 2013, there is no longer a sterilization requirement for transgender persons who want to transition.
