Det är den minoritet av världens befolkning som är rik som främst påverkar statusen för jordens livsuppehållande system genom sin konsumtion. Det skriver två forskare i en replik.This is a response to another article that argues that population growth is the main problem. Jennifer and her co-authors write: "In the environmental debate, it is often said that the issue of population growth is taboo. We disagree. In most of the contexts in which we operate, the population issue is discussed. The reason why it is not emphasized more is that the statistics speak for themselves:

The objectives of our study were to enhance and evaluate an improved saponification method for the quantification of fatty acids (FA), with a specific focus on highly-unsaturated long-chain polyunsaturated FA (LPUFA) that are easily peroxidised in pig erythrocytes. These erythrocytes serve as a valuable large animal model for human studies. We implemented a modified saponification procedure, invol

Regeringsformen (RF) 2 kap. 1 § ger inte tydlig ledning i fråga om vad som utgör legitima inskränkningar av yttrandefriheten. Lagtextens vaga utform-ning, samt skiftande praxis i förhållande till bestämmelsen gör det komplicerat att bestämma yttrandefrihetens omfattning i svensk rätt. Problematiken gör sig gällande i fråga om förhållandet till legitima inskränkningar, såsom bestäm-melsen om hets mThe second chapter, section 1 of the instrument of Government does not pro-vide a clear interpretation of what constitutes legitimate restrictions on free-dom of expression.

The vague legal text, along with varying practices in relation to the provision, result in uncertainty regarding the extent of the free

I uppsatsen utreds hur intresseavvägningen mellan personlig integritet och brottsbekämpning, i form av kamerabevakning med ansiktsigenkänning, ser ut. För att ta reda på detta har uppsatsen utrett vad ansiktsigenkänningsteknologin är, vad integritet är och hur den regleras, samt hur en begränsning av den personliga integriteten får göras enligt lag. Personlig integritet är ett inte helt definieraThe essay explores the balancing of interests between personal privacy and crime prevention, specifically focusing on surveillance with facial recognition technology. To investigate this, the essay examines what facial recognition technology is, the concept of privacy and its regulation, as well as how limitations on personal privacy can be legally justified. Personal privacy is a somewhat undefi

Brottet kontakt med barn i sexuellt syfte regleras i 6 kap. 10a§ BrB och tar sikte på situationen när en vuxen, i kontakt med ett barn under 15 år, föreslår eller stämmer träff med barnet i syfte att begå vissa i paragrafen uppräknade sexualbrott. Bestämmelsen har visat på en bristande förmåga att resultera i lagföring. En förklaring till detta är svårigheterna att upptäcka brottet vid en tidpunkThe crime of contact with a child for sexual purposes is governed by Chapter 6, paragraph 10a of the Swedish Criminal Code and regulates the situation when an adult, in contact with a child under the age of 15, proposes or agrees to meet with the child for the purpose of committing certain sexual offenses listed in the paragraph.

Uppsatsen behandlar frågan om hur nödvärnsrätten tillämpas mot flera angri-pare, särskilt när dessa agerar i medgärningsmannaskap. Brottsbalkens 24 kapitel stadgar rätten till självförsvar vid brottsliga angrepp på person eller egendom, förutsatt att agerandet inte är uppenbart oförsvarligt. Eftersom för-arbetena till brottsbalken endast behandlar rätten till nödvärn med utgångs-punkt från angripaThe following paper addresses the question of how the right to self-defense is applied against multiple attackers, especially when they act in concert. Chapter 24 of the Swedish Criminal Code stipulates the right to self-defense in case of criminal attacks on persons or property, provided that the action is not clearly unjustifiable. Since the preparatory work for the Swedish Criminal Code only co

Genom den teknologiska utvecklingen har det under de senaste åren blivit möjligt att med hjälp av AI generera bilder. Processen skiljer sig från hur bilder tidigare har framställts och människan kan nu mer än någonsin vara passiv i skapandeprocessen. Den nya metoden att framställa bilder väcker nya frågor avseende upphovsrätten. Uppsatsen undersöker en av dessa frågor - nämligen huruvida människanDue to technological advancements, it has become possible in recent years to generate images using AI. This process differs from traditional methods of image creation, allowing humans to be more passive in the creative process than ever before.
