Popular Abstract in Swedish För att vi ska kunna lösa globala problem som miljöförstöring och fattigdom är det många som menar att den privata sektorn måste involveras på ett aktivt sätt.

Recreational hunting in Sweden can be depicted as being embedded in two different but overlapping cultural and socio-economic contexts. One is the traditional stewardship-oriented form of hunting, in Swedish called ‘allmoge’ hunting. Another form is the commercial form of hunting, where hunting is packaged and offered to visitors, quite often with different types of services included. These two fo

However, studies have shown that coercive measures still occur within organizations bound by the law. The aim of this study was to examine the re

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

Unga lagöverträdare har sedan länge särbehandlats i det svenska påföljdssystemet. Den som begår brott innan 21 års ålder särbehandlas idag både beträffande straffmätningen och påföljdsvalet. Bland annat får den unge lagöverträdaren sitt straff reducerat genom den så kallade straffrabatten. I december 2018 utkom ungdomsreduktionsutredningen med ett förslag om slopad straffrabatt för unga lagöverträYoung offenders have long been treated differently than adult offenders in the Swedish penal system. Anyone who commits crimes before the age of 21 is today treated differently both in terms of the sentencing measure and the choice of penalty.
