This thesis analyses the 2023 Swedish legislative reform that introduces a mandatory minimum prison sentence of six months for drug dealing, as stipu-lated in the Penal Law on Narcotics Offences (narkotikastrafflagen).

Officiellt sett har den Europeiska Unionen (EU) en klar ambition att utveckla ett asylsystem som överensstämmer med skyldigheter enligt internationella instrument för mänskliga rättigheter. Kritiker har dock sedan mer än 20 år ifrågasatt huruvida EU:s regelverk avseende asyl och migration står i överensstämmelse med till exempel principen om non-refoulement som etableras i Genèvekonventionen av deThe European Union (EU) has officially expressed an ambition to develop a common European asylum system consistent with international human rights obligations. However, the compatibility of the EU asylum system with international human rights and with the principle of non-refoulement, established in the Geneva Convention of 28 July 1951, have been questioned over the last 20 years.

Svenskt ställföreträdarskap för vuxna består av möjligheten att utse en god man eller förvaltare. Tidigare fanns en möjlighet att upprätta en fullmakt för någon som kunde hjälpa den enskilda även efter att denna p.g.a. ålder eller annan orsak inte längre var beslutsförmögen. Det förfarandet kritiserades på många håll, inte minst genom NJA 2015 s. 851. Av denna anledning pågår arbetet för att anta Swedish deputisation for adults comprises the possibility to designate an administrator or trustee. Earlier, there were a possibility to nominate a proxy agent to assist individuals with their affairs even after a they due to old age or any other reason not were able to.

I 29 kap. 1 § brottsbalken anges att straffet för ett brott ska bestämmas inom ramen för den tillämpliga straffskalan efter brottets straffvärde. Straffvärdet för ett brott kan anses spegla brottets allvarlighet och flera omständigheter kan påverka straffvärdet.

Hedersmotiv kan beaktas inom ramen fChapter 29 section 1 of The Swedish Criminal Code, hereafter called SCC, states that the penalty shall be determined within the framework of the applicable scale of penalties according to the penalty value of the offence.

The Swedish Government wants to fight honor-related crime and believes that the introduction of a special honor crime is a way to further highlight that such violence is unacceptable. Therefore, in July 2019, the Government commissioned a special investigator to analyze and take a position on a special criminal provision that explicitly aims at honor-realtered violence and oppression. The inquiry
Korruption är ett globalt och frekvent förekommande problem. Genom nationella rättsakter med långtgående extraterritoriell jurisdiktion som till exempel amerikanska The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, bekämpas korruption numera på ett gränsöverskridande tillvägagångssätt. Detta medför att företag vid till exempel inträde på en ny marknad omsorgsfullt måste undersöka under vilka lands lagar Corruption is a global problem. Through national legislation with far-reaching extraterritorial jurisdiction such as the U.S. The Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, fighting corruption has now a transnational approach. This means for example, that companies who will enter a new market must carefully examine, under which countries´ law a company can be considered to have a criminal responsibili
