The Eastern enlargement of the European Union in 2004 has brought a historical shift for the Union and Ukraine in political, geographic and economic terms.

Samhället har genomgått stora förändringar sedan regleringen kring rättsligt föräldraskap instiftades för första gången. Såväl ny medicinsk teknik som nya accepterade familjekonstellationer har bidragit till att den gamla regleringen har krävt en omarbetning. Vem som ska uppnå status som rättslig förälder och varför har därav ändrats. Från början var utgångspunkten för fastställandet av rättsligtThe society has gone through major changes ever since the first legal provisions concerning legal parenthood were adopted.

In this explorative paper soccer, basketball and boxing are illustrated as possible arenas for integration. Six men
Rättsläget kring implementeringen av IPRED-direktivet har varit osäkert och omtvistat. Förhållandet mellan upphovsrätt och integritet är invecklat och skyddet för de ekonomiska rättigheterna har varit i behov av förbättring samtidigt som att säkrandet av tryggheten för personlig information i ett växande informationssamhälle blivit allt större. Genom domen i ePhone-målet har det fastslagits att dThe legal position regarding the implementation of the IPRED directive has been uncertain and controversial.

This essay explores the possible influence from WTO law into Community law in the area of State aid. In order to do so one needs to examine questions relating to material law as well as EC enforcement and procedure. Special attention is paid to State aid as regulated in Article 87.1 ECT.

Long working-hour problem in Korea has been prevalent for many years. Compare to other countries, it has been one of the countries which have the longest working-hour in the world. As working long hours is directly related to employees‟ work-life balance, job satisfaction, health and more, previous researches as well as political attempts have tried to resolve this chronic problem. Previous approa
Few studies have directly compared the ability of the most commonly used models of frailty to predict mortality among community-dwelling individuals. Here, we used a frailty index (FI), frailty phenotype (FP), and FRAIL scale (FS) to predict mortality in the EMAS. Participants were aged 40-79 years (n = 2929) at baseline and 6.6% (n = 193) died over a median 4.3 years of follow-up. The FI was gene
Background: In European countries, knowledge about availability and utilization of support for informal caregivers caring for older persons (>= 65 years) with dementia (PwD) is lacking. To be able to evaluate and develop the dementia support system for informal caregivers to PwD, a survey of European support systems and professionals involved is needed. The aim of this study was to explore support
Staters användning av utländsk massövervakning är idag öppet diskuterat och ofta reglerat i lag. Europeiska domstolen för de mänskliga rättigheterna (Europadomstolen) har fastställt att massövervakning utan tillräckliga säkerhetsgarantier kan innebära en kränkning av individers rätt till privatliv enligt artikel 8 Europeiska konventionen om skydd för de mänskliga rättigheterna (EKMR). Enligt artikThe foreign mass surveillance of communications conducted by states is no longer a secret, but rather openly discussed and often regulated in law. The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) has established that mass surveillance without adequate safeguards can violate individuals’ right to privacy under Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR). According to Article 1 ECHR, indiv
Atlantic cod is one of the world´s most important commercial fish stocks and is dependent on fishing regulations for its wellbeing and survival. An important part in fisheries management is information of the stock distribution. This is needed to not cause overestimations that results in heavy overfishing.

Article 17(1) of the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) mandates that an issuer shall publicly disclose “inside information” which directly concerns the issuer as soon as possible, with the concept of “inside information” defined in art. 7 of MAR.

Road traffic accidents in Sweden are today registered in the national database called STRADA (Swedish Traffic Accident Data Acquisition). To every accident information is gathered, but an efficient way of compiling this information is lacking. In countries like Germany or Denmark accidents are classified by the type of manoeuvre that leads to the accident. With help from reference tables, every m
The scale of atrocities perpetrated against refugees and migrants around the globe demands our urgent attention. Yet, triggering of individual criminal responsibility in situations of mistreatment of refugees and migrants is certainly not the norm. The purpose of this thesis is to challenge the existing notions that only crimes related to armed conflict and other related situations of violence fal
Objective: A large number of different types of digital innovations for health and medical care have been developed in Sweden under the concept of eHealth. Employees’ interest is of great importance in determining the success of different new digital interventions and technologies. Purpose: In this study, we aimed to elucidate the nurses’ experiences as a first “gatekeeper” in an Internet-based Di
With the increasing complexity and scale of modern software systems, ensuring software security is more critical than ever. As projects grow, so does the likelihood of vulnerabilities being introduced. Static Application Security Testing (SAST) tools assist developers in identifying such vulnerabilities during development. In this study, five Java SAST tools (Bearer, CodeQL, Horusec, Semgrep and S
This chapter examines the response of five prominent Swedish economists, David Davidson, Gustav Cassel, Eli Heckscher, Knut Wicksell and Bertil Ohlin, to John Maynard Keynes’s The Economic Consequences of the Peace and to the German reparations in the 1920s. When Keynes’s book appeared, Davidson and Cassel strongly endorsed it. Heckscher also agreed with Keynes in a long review entitled “Too Bad t
