I denna uppsats redogör jag för de olika konkurrensproblem som kan uppstå på marknaden för mobil samtalsterminering. Jag tillämpar den gällande lagstiftningen, som utgörs av lag (2003:389) om elektronisk kommunikation, genom att analysera vilka skyldigheter som den nationella regleringsmyndigheten kan ålägga företagen i syfte att undanröja konkurrensproblem. Slutligen analyserar jag de effekter so

The rights of women living in societies ruled by laws based on Shari'a constitute a controversial question in the human rights debate in many countries today. Suggestions that these laws are of a divine nature, and as such cannot be overridden by the human rights principles of western origin leads to discussions in several areas, such as the right to religion, the human rights tradition in Mus

Denna uppsats kommer att behandla skatteflyktslagen i dess senaste lydelse, samt i viss mån vägen fram till denna nya lydelse. Avsikten är sedan att försöka utläsa trender eller nya resonemang i rättsfallen från Regeringsrätten samt förhandsbesked från Skatterättsnämnden. Jag kommer då speciellt inrikta mig på tidsperioden 2000 till 2002. För att kunna belysa dessa subtila signaler från de olika i

Den offentliga upphandlingen i Sverige och EU omsätter mycket stora värden. Dessa värden kommer direkt ifrån skattebetalarna och måste därför ''fördelas på bästa sätt''. De bestämmelser som reglerar offentlig upphandling är utformade för att bland annat upprätthålla en hög grad av affärsmässighet, konkurrens och öppenhet. Det svenska regelverket LOU bygger på EG-direktiv som täcker

The United States taxes its citizens on their worldwide income. Since the U.S. taxpayers are not always very complaisant the government has had to create ways to disclose and control transactions and penalise non-compliant taxpayers. The United States has been, and is one of the world's leading countries in the fight against harmful tax competition, ever since it decided to implement the Contr

Character merchandising innebär ett sekundärt utnyttjande av rätten till en karaktär -vare sig denna utgörs av fiktiva reklamfigurer, litterära och kinematografiska karaktärer eller fysiska personer. Genom licensiering av rätten till karaktären kan rättighetshavaren extrahera det fulla värdet av densamme genom att under karaktärens goodwill låta marknadsföra efterfrågade produkter som ligger utanf

I denna uppsats undersöks om de svenska reglerna för uppskov med beskattning vid andelsbyten strider mot det EG-rättsliga fusionsdirektivet. Först beskrivs hur de svenska reglerna och fusionsdirektivet är utformade. Sedan följer en beskrivning av den rättspraxis som finns på området. Därefter tar jag upp ett antal punkter där det är tveksamt om svensk rätt stämmer överens med fusionsdirektivet. Sl

This study looks into diplomatic and consular immunity under international law as applied by the Ministries of Foreign Affairs in Sweden, Denmark and The Netherlands. It does so by examining the practice and/or considerations of these Ministries in 10 different hypothetical cases where individuals enjoying such immunity commit crimes in respective State, i.e., abuse of local laws and/or regulation

Klimatfrågan är vetenskapligt komplicerad och har förknippats med både metodisk osäkerhet och politiska tvister. Teorin att jordens medeltemperatur ökar till följd av människors utsläpp av växthusgaser genom framför allt förbränning av fossila bränslen har inte fullständigt stöd, men får anses vara den förhärskande uppfattningen. Att åtgärda klimatfrågan är förknippat med mycket stora kostnader fö

Infatuation and love are two words associated with marriage, but from a historical perspective marriage has nothing to do with love. Marriage has been regulated by both religious and secular rules since medieval times. At first marriage was most common in wealthy families but with the involvement of the church marriage became a sacrament and something every good Christian had to commit to unless t

International law related to patents, on the one side, and human rights, on the other, both constitute interesting areas of law on their own. From time-to time the two distinct fields of international law intertwine. A tragic but highly relevant example is the ongoing HIV/AIDS epidemic. The core of law-related considerations of the HIV/AIDS epidemic consists of specific parts of the two fields, na

In this thesis, emphasise is on the positive impact companies that can have on the fulfilment of human rights. Regarding human rights and business, one can mainly read about companies' violations of human rights. In my opinion, this negative approach will not stimulate them to improve their policies and performances. A more positive approach can be a motivation for companies to take the opport

Human rights have their roots in citizen's rights. The development of citizen's rights has been centring on property rights. Property rights own its root to Rome. Private property rights are crucial elements in the Roman law, but were less recognized in the Middle Ages. Then it revives in the medieval cities. This thesis explores the development of property rights in Europe with the transf

This study aims to revise the possibility of interpreting the 1951 Refugee Convention to include female trafficked victims who might suffer from persecution if deported back to their home countries, in the definition if the Convention as members of a 'particular social group'. Trafficking in women for the purpose of sexual exploitation is one of the most profitable 'markets' in the

The right of access to medicines has challenged the common perception that economic, social and cultural rights, due to their progressive character, are aspirations rather than a legal set of obligations. It has received strong and sustainable global support and has achieved a remarkably detailed legal definition within the UN human rights system, including the provision of access to essential med

Armed conflict, either internationally or internally, has caused great sufferings to the victims and society as a whole. It constitutes a situation where the rule of law is absent and human rights are no longer respected. Even though various preventive endeavours have been campaigned and implemented by the international community, the occurrences of armed conflicts are still inevitable due to poli

This paper seeks to assess the legality of multiple convictions of different offences based on the same set of facts at the International Criminal Court, in particular genocide and persecution as a crime against humanity. The situations in which these crimes ordinarily take place are such that one is rarely dealing with a single offence, but a multitude of offences. The events that took place duri

The European Union is working towards creating a Common European Asylum System for the purpose of harmonizing the domestic asylum laws of its Member States and creating a system in which asylum status may be determined justly. The Reception Directive of 2003 is the EU legislation that, among other things sets minimum standards of health care for asylum seekers in EU Member States. All EU Member St

Japan has not officially accepted low-skilled foreign workers. Instead it has opened 'the backdoor' and accepted 'industrial trainees'. They are not given the status of workers and they are thus out of protections of labour laws. There have been many media report about abusive cases they suffered. In spite of that, the Japanese government has no intention to abolish the scheme. Wha
