År 2008 brakade den finansiella marknaden samman och följdes av en recession världen över som vi till viss del fortfarande brottas med. OTC-derivat, ett skräddarsytt bilateralt finansiellt instrument, har i finanskrisens efterdyningar beskyllts vara en av bovarna i dramat. Särskilt tros OTC-derivaten ha bidragit till en icke-transparens på marknaden som gjorde det omöjligt att både förutse och förIn 2008 the financial market collapsed and what followed was a worldwide recession which the market has yet to fully recover from.

Sverige har en lång tradition av en flexibel arbetsmarknad där arbetstagare fritt kunnat förflytta sig mellan offentlig och privat sektor. Övergångar av detta slag är i många delar positivt och genererar ett erfarenhetsutbyte som är till gagn för båda sektorer. I samband med övergång från anställning i offentlig till privat verksamhet kan emellertid så kallad svängdörrsproblematik uppstå. Denna prSweden has a long tradition of a flexible labor market where employees have been able to freely move between the public and private sectors.

The Swedish age of criminal responsibility means that children under 15 who commit offences cannot be sentenced to any penalty. There is, however, a process in § 38 LUL that can determine whether a child under 15 has commit-ted a serious crime, called an evidentiary proceeding. At the time of its crea-tion, the purpose of an evidentiary proceeding was to provide the child wel-fare authorities with

Hur rättfärdig är icke lagen: den förbjuder såväl den rike som den fattige att sova under broarna och tigga bröd. Detta kända citat av författaren Anatole France illustrerar inledningsvis en övergripande del av mitt syfte med denna uppsats. Lagen ska i sin utformning som utgångspunkt vara generell, förutsägbar och lika för alla – ändock drabbar den oundvikligen olika (grupper) av befolkningen påThe law, in its majestic equality, forbids the rich as well as the poor to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal bread.
