A key message from this chapter - and the book as such - is that the Nordic Barnahus model is a step in the right direction in terms of meeting victimised children's needs and legal rights, and that it could be recommended as a promising practice for other countries. At the same time, it is not a quick fix.

Sites of Lobaria pulmonaria reported from the nemoral zone of the Swedish provinces Skåne and Blekinge since 1990 were revisited. At each locality, the habitat ecology and lichen viability were investigated. A substantial decline was noted, particularly in Skåne, as L. pulmonaria was found at only 24 sites, 22 of which were forests and two were wooded meadows. The commonest habitats for L. pulmonaSites of Lobaria pulmonaria reported from the nemoral zone of the Swedish provinces Skåne and Blekinge since 1990 were revisited.

This essay examines especially Russia`s role in the civil war in Syria that started on 15 March year 2011. External actors` political views, their cooperation with Russia and their interests in Syria have also been processed in this paper. My methodology consists of qualitative text analysis. An open approach was used when I have practiced my textual analysis. This means that the investigation is

Sammanfattning Den här uppsatsen är en granskning av brittisk, svensk och kanadensisk upphovsrätt. Mer exakt utreder detta arbete de olika ländernas syn på parodier och hur dessa skyddas under respektive lands upphovsrättslag. För att få en bättre förståelse för om parodier kan kvalificeras som upphovsrättsliga verk, berör även denna uppsats vilka olika kriterier varje land har satt upp för att

Att värna om barn och barns rättigheter är frågor som ständigt är aktuella, och inom politiken framförs ständigt nya lagförslag på hur barnrättsperspektivet kan stärkas. I denna uppsats kommer därmed redogöras för om barns delaktighet i vårdnadstvister i den utsträckning som gällande rätt öppnar upp för är motiverad, samt om det är berättigat att stärka denna rätt. Uppsatsens syfte kommer uppnåsProtecting children and children's rights are issues that are constantly relevant, and in politics, new legislative proposals are constantly being put forward on how the child rights perspective can be strengthened. In this essay, it will be explained whether children's right to participation in custody disputes to the extent that applicable law opens up for today is motivated, and wheth

Principen om ekonomisk dubbelbeskattning gäller som huvudregel i svensk rätt. Detta innebär att inkomster i företag som lämnas som utdelning till företagets ägare ska beskattas två gånger. Först en gång i företaget som skatt på inkomsten, och sedan ytterligare en gång när den lämnar företaget och beskattas hos mottagaren som inkomst av kapital. För ekonomiska föreningar som är att anse som kooperaThe principle of economical double taxation (not to be confused with international double taxation) is a centerpiece to the Swedish fiscal legislative system. Paid dividends are according to this principle subjected to taxation twice before they are received by a shareholder. Initially, the income of a company will be subjected to corporate taxation. Thereafter, when it leaves the company as paid

Skattelättnadsregeln för medlemmar i oäkta bostadsföretag, som togs bort från och med inkomståret 2016, innebar att de kunde göra ett avdrag på den beskattningsbara bostadsförmånen. I och med borttagandet av denna regel påverkas cirka 5000 privatpersoner av en högre utgift för sitt boende. Att en bostadsrättsförening klassas som ett oäkta bostadsföretag beror ofta på att de har en stor andel lokalUp until recently, members of co-operative housing associations with a high income deriving from non-housing activities could benefit from a tax exemption rule. This rule was last applied in 2015 and meant that a deduction could be made for the taxable housing benefit. With the removal of this rule approximately 5,000 private individuals are affected by a higher cost for their accommodation. When

The purpose of this thesis is to study the performance of mutual funds in the Swedish fund market in 2000-2011. We study whether the active funds performed better than passive funds in terms of abnormal returns. We further study if a fund’s historical performance is a direct indicator of the fund’s performance in the future by measuring persistence in performance. Our data includes 28 active and 1

Through interviews with persons connected to the village it explores how thoughts and opinions about equality between men and women are formulated, but also whether equality between men and women is seen as a goal in the community. These thoughts and opinions are analy

The anticolonial uprising in 1920 against the British occupation of the provinces of Mosul, Baghdad, and Basra marked an unprecedented escalation in resistance and opposition to the colonial forces. While most narratives of this uprising focus on the more significant events across the lower and middle Euphrates, earlier, unsuccessful episodes of anticolonial resistance also emerged in the Jazirah

Under början av 1900-talet införde alla nordiska länder, förutom Norge, en möjlighet för frihetsberövade kvinnor att medföra sitt spädbarn i anstalten under straffverkställigheten. Regleringarna grundades på arvsbiologiska aspekter, då det var vanligt att de små barnen fortfarande ammades av sina mödrar och de var beroende av modersmjölken för att överleva. Med tiden har dock regleringarnas syfte In the beginning of the 20th century all Nordic countries except Norway introduced a possibility for imprisoned women to bring their infants with them during their sentence. The legislation was considered necessary due to the fact that the infant still was breast-fed by their mother. Child psychologist and psychoanalysist John Bowlby (from Great Britain) developed the affiliation theory during th

This paper examines the potential decrease in Swedish green house gas emissions as a result of a more ecologically sustainable household consumption. The consumption changes modelled are; a vegan diet, reduced household electricity use and changed private traveling patterns. To do this, the Swedish version of the software programme Resource and Energy Analysis Program (REAP Sweden) is being use

The housing shortage in Sweden means that a lot of focus is placed on finding new efficient methods that allow for a faster and more cost-effective construction. The type of industrial construction that was used in the so called Million Program in Sweden in the 60s and 70s was substandard in many ways and has given many Swedes a negative image of what industrialized construction and prefabrication

This thesis examines the impact of the European Cohesion Policy on regional economic performance during the funding periods of 2007-2013 and 2014-2020, using a Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD) and spatial econometric techniques. The analysis leverages the eligibility rule, which grants additional funding to regions with a GDP per capita below 75\% of the EU average, creating a natural experim
