This thesis examines the possible transjudicial interaction that may arise between the ICC and the IACtHR with regard to the interpretation of the crime of enforced disappearance of persons. This potential scenario of jurisprudential cross-fertilisation is considered on the fact that both, the IACtHR and the ICC exercise jurisdiction ratione materiae over the crime of enforced disappearance, there

During the past few years the focus on bioprocess monitoring and control has increased. An area still under intensive development is the sampling methods for efficient and rapid analysis during fermentations. In this thesis, an online-sampling and monitoring scheme was developed using the versatile automated continuous flow system (VersAFlo) for recombinant protein production. From the implementat

Knowledge acquired through ecosystem service valuations can provide valuable information to stakeholders making land-use decisions. Effective use of ecosystem service valuation knowledge with a cost-benefit analysis can create resilient social-ecological systems. There is an increasing number of valuations being conducted, yet only one third of the studies are thought to be used in some form to ai

With modern day interest to continue the reduction of harmful emissions and improve the efficiency of combustion devices, the need to further improve upon accuracy and ability to describe combustive processes is of high value. Nowadays, multiple capable point (0D) and two-dimensional measurement (2D) techniques exist for flame investigation, however as combustion nearly always is a three-dimension

The role of the museum within society today is significantly different from how it used to be. The last five decades have seen an increase in focus on pedagogy, accessibility and outreaching activities within the museums, and it has had an effect on both how the museum is viewed from the public eye, as well as how the work within the organisations is carried out, by the increasing amount of differ

På 1970-talet stämde en grupp samer den svenska staten då de ansåg sig ha bättre rätt till ett geografiskt område kallat Skattefjällen. Samer är av svenska staten erkända som ett ursprungsfolk, och som en minoritetsgrupp. Skattefjällsmålet togs upp av Högsta domstolen 1981 och resulterade i ett prejudikat som sedan dess haft stort inflytande på de flesta mål som berört samers rättigheter. Syftet In the 1970s a group of Sami people sued the Swedish State claiming a better right to a geographic area referred to as the Taxed Mountain (Skattefjällen). The Sami people are recognised as an indigenous people, and a minority group, by the Swedish State. The Taxed Mountain Case (Skattefjällsmålet), that reached the Supreme Court (Högsta domstolen) in the year of 1981, resulted in a precedent that

This study centres around the value creation and status hierarchies in online brand communites. With the advancement of digital technologies, it has become easier for admirers of brands to interact and communicate with each other. Companies do not necessarily want to engage and commit to online brand communities due to strict brand management practices and fear of losing the control of the brand t

Domstolens bevisvärdering av sakkunnigutlåtanden såsom rättsintyg har tidigare uppmärksammats för att vara otillräcklig och generös. Samtidigt har rättsintygens kvalitet fått mycket kritik. År 2006 skedde dock den så kallade rättsintygsreformen och denna uppsats utreder vad reformen har inneburit för rättsintygens bevisstyrka. Syftet är att belysa de nuvarande förhållanden som råder vid rättsintygLegal science has earlier observed that the court’s assessment of expert evidence such as forensic reports can be inadequate and generous. At the same time the quality of forensic reports has been criticised. However, in 2006 a new law and regulation that regulates forensic reports came into force, and the so-called “forensic report reform” was implemented. This essay examines the meaning of the r

This study analyzes why right-wing populism has achieved great success in France, unlike in Spain where right-wing populism lacks parliamentary representation. The analysis is theoretical and to some extent statistical and focuses on the economic, social, cultural and political structures of France and Spain, as well as the success of the French Right-wing Party, Front National. By comparing the d

Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka hur staten och kommunernas skadeståndsansvar har utvecklats sedan skadeståndslagen infördes. Till undersökningen används framför allt lag, lagförarbeten, praxis och doktrin. Uppsatsen är uppdelad i tre delar där den första delen behandlar utvecklingen av skadeståndslagen, den andra delen undersöker hur Europakonventionen har påverkat skadeståndsrätten och den tredThe purpose of this thesis is to investigate how the liability of public bodies have developed since the introduction of the Tort Liability Act.

Mitt första intresse för ämnet diskriminering av övervikt och fetma väcktes när jag i ett re-staurangkök hörde en arbetsgivare neka en person intervju endast på grund av hennes vikt. Jag ansåg personligen att detta var ett felaktigt handlande och syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka om det är tillåtet att missgynna en person endast på grund av dennes vikt. Genom klassisk rättsvetenskaplig metMy first interest in the subject of discrimination against individuals who are overweight and obese was raised when an employer at my work in a restaurant denied a person interview ex-clusively due to her weight. I personally considered this to be wrong. The purpose of this es-say is to investigate whether it is allowed to disadvantage a person entirely based on the per-son’s weight. I will use a

Syftet med denna uppsats är att utreda huruvida det vore fördelaktigt med ett prejudicerande avgörande från HD beträffande våldsamma handlingar begångna vid organiserad idrottsutövning i Sverige. Sådana handlingar som normalt föranleder straffrättsligt ansvar för misshandel men istället resulterar i ansvarsfrihet då handlingarna utförts på en idrottsplan. En förutsättning för att en person ska kThe purpose of this essay is to examine whether it would be favorable with a precedent from the Swedish supreme court in case of violent actions during organized sport in Sweden. Referring to such actions that normally would result in criminal liability due to assault, but instead results in discharge since the actions been performed on a sports field. Criminal liability regarding assault requir

Offentlig upphandling är ett område som omsätter väldigt stora belopp, år 2012 uppgick denna summa till 635 miljarder vilket är knappt en 1/5 av Sveriges BNP. EU har på europeisk nivå lyft fram offentlig upphandling som ett sätt att nå samhälleliga mål, i EU-kommissionens 2020 strategi tas offentlig upphandling upp som ett sätt att nå den hållbara tillväxt som kommissionen vill åstadkomma. För attPublic procurement is a sector that turns over huge amounts of money. In 2012 this sector was valued at 625 billion SEK in Sweden. At EU level the scale of public procurement has been noticed by the EU-commission as something that can be used to create a more sustainable Europe. To achieve this EU wants to increase the possibilities for the member states to use environmentally adapted public procu

Denna uppsats syftar främst till att utreda hur svensk straffrätt betraktar situationen där en person verbalt förmår annan att begå självmord och om någon skulle kunna bli ansvarig för annans självmord. Det mer övergripande syftet är att undersöka lagstiftarens ambitioner kring vad som bör kriminaliseras och varför självmord knappt behandlas i rättskälleläran och inom rättsväsendet. Självmord ellThe purpose of this essay is primarily to examine how the Swedish criminal law considers the situation where a person persuades another to kill oneself. Furthermore, the essay aims more generally to investigate the legislator ́s ambition about what actions that should be criminalized and why suicide barely is treated in the judicial. Today, suicide or attempted suicide does not constitute a crime

Resultaten från tidigare miljötekniska markundersökningar utförda av Demikon AB och ÅF Infrastructure AB på fastigheten Berghem 2:26, Ljungby kommun, har visat att fastigheten i fråga är kraftigt förorenad av diesel. Fastigheten återfinns längs med Europaväg 4 (E4), är cirka 2200 kvm och hyser i dag drivmedelförsäljning samt verkstadsbyggnader och lättare industri. Baserat på resultaten från tidigSituated in Ljungby municipality, along Europaväg 4 (E4), one will find the estate Berghem 2:26, which according to previous environmental surveying carried out by Demikon AB and ÅF Infrastructure AB has proven to be heavily polluted by diesel. The estate is approximately 2200 m2 and accommodates fuel sales, as well as workshops and light industry. Based on the results received from previous inves

Forskning har pekat på att välfärdspolitiken genomgått en transformation under de senaste decennierna, något som accelererat sedan finanskrisen 2007. Utvecklingen innebär en hårdare kontroll av bidragstagare, med det uttalade syftet att få medborgare i arbete. Förändringen har beskrivits som nyliberal eller som ett skifte från ”welfare to workfare”. Annan forskning har sedan tidigare belagt att upThe study examines the relation between welfare regimes and notions of solidarity in 2008 and 2016, using quantitative methods. Previous research identifies a strong correlation between type of welfare regime and notions of solidarity. Due to a neoliberal shift in politics and policy-making, the welfare state is changing towards becoming a “workfare” state. This thesis examines if the neoliberal s

In the context of growing population and increasing greenhouse gas emissions, urban energy planning is becoming a topic of high concern. With the rapid pace of urban construction, it is claimed that 40% of America’s total energy consumption is accounted by the building sector. Energy modelling and simulation are believed to be effective in supporting urban energy planning. Today, the growing avail
