Sedan införandet av EU:s GMO‑lagstiftning år 2001 har användningen av nya genomiska tekniker (NGT) inom genmodifiering av växter ökat markant inom EU. NGT:er skiljer sig från vedertagna genomiska tekniker genom att de utför mer precisa förändringar i en organisms genom. Uppsatsens fokus ligger på växter som framställts med NGT:erna riktad mutagenes, cisgenes och intragenes. Cisgenes och intragenesSince the introduction of the GMO-legislation in 2001, the EU has seen an increased use of new genomic techniques (NGTs) in the field of plant gene modification. NGTs differ from established genomic techniques by performing more precise changes in an organism’s genome. The thesis focuses on plants produced with the NGTs targeted mutagenesis, cisgenesis and intragenesis. Cisgenesis and intragenesis

Miljöpåståenden används idag ofta i marknadsföring för att övertyga kon-sumenter om en produkt eller tjänsts miljöfördelar. För att motverka vilsele-dande miljöpåståenden har EU-kommissionen föreslagit ett direktiv – det så kallade Green Claims-direktivet – som kräver att miljöpåståenden ska för-handskontrolleras och godkännas av en oberoende aktör. Kravet på förhandskontroll kan dock komma i konfEnvironmental claims are now frequently used in marketing to convince consumers of the environmental benefits of a product or service. To counter misleading environmental claims, the European Commission has proposed a directive – the so-called “Green Claims Directive” – which requires that such claims be pre-approved by an independent verifier. However, this re-quirement may conflict with Swedish

Likt RB präglas LSF av normer som fördelar ansvaret mellan skiljenämnden och parterna. En fundamental princip inom civilprocessrätten är dispositionsprincipen, vilken främst kommer till uttryck genom 17 kap. 3 § RB. Av paragrafens andra mening framgår att domstolen i dispositiva tvistemål inte får grunda sitt avgörande på en omständighet som inte åberopats av rätt part. Regeln har preciserats i räAs with the SCJP, the SAA is characterized by norms that allocate responsibility between the arbitral tribunal and the parties. A fundamental principle of civil procedure law is the principle of party disposition, primarily expressed in Chapter 17, Section 3 of the SCJP. The second sentence of this section provides that a court may not, in disputes amenable to settlement, base its judgment on a ci

Det försämrade säkerhetspolitiska läget har gjort att utländska direktinvesteringar – som tidigare främst betraktats bidra till nationell kapitaltillväxt – numera anses utgöra en potentiell säkerhetsrisk. Som en följd av detta antog EU år 2019 en förordning som gav medlemsstaterna befogenhet att införa nationella granskningssystem för att hindra skadliga utländska direktinvesteringar i säkerhetskäThe current global security situation has led to foreign direct investments – once primarily seen as contributing to national economic growth – to increasingly be viewed as a potential security risk. In response, the EU adopted a regulation in 2019 granting Member States the authority to establish national screening systems to block harmful foreign investments in certain sensitive sectors.

Denna uppsats behandlar frågan om vilka konsekvenser ett eventuellt återinförande av ett tillräknelighetsrekvisit kan få ur ett brottsofferperspektiv, med särskilt fokus på situationer när gärningspersonen har en intellektuell funktionsnedsättning. I dagens svenska rättsordning saknas ett tillräknelighetsrekvisit. Detta rekvisit innebär ett krav på att gärningspersonen ska besitta en viss kognitivThis thesis explores the question of whether a reintroduction of an imputability requirement in Swedish law would affect the treatment of offenders with intellectual disabilities, and what consequences this in turn would have for victims of crime. In the current Swedish legal system, there is no requirement of culpability. The requirement means that the offender must have had a certain cognitive a

I Sverige finns ett antal företag som med stöd av offentlighetsprincipen samlar in personuppgifter ur allmänna handlingar och publicerar dessa i söktjänster på internet. Genom användning av söktjänsterna går det att skapa sig en utförlig bild av en viss individ. Söktjänsterna har i regel beviljats utgivningsbevis och omfattas därför av grundlagsskyddet i YGL. I Sverige har en vedertagen uppfattninIn Sweden, there are several companies that, relying on the principle of public access to official documents, gather personal data and publish this information in online search services. Through use of these services, it is possible to access a detailed profile of a specific individual. The search services have generally been granted a so-called certificate of publication and are consequently prot

I centrum för en ny förverkandeform, självständigt förverkande enligt 36:5 BrB, kan den enskildes egendom väcka misstanke om brottslig verksamhet, utan att behöva kopplas till ett konkret brott. Förverkandeformen trädde i kraft den 8 november 2024 och bryter mot tidigare traditionella krav att egendomen måste ha koppling till ett konkret brott. Det möjliggör för staten att förverka egendom om det At the centre of a new form of confiscation, independent confiscation under Chapter 36, Section 5 of the Swedish Criminal Code, an individual’s property may give rise to suspicion of criminal activity without needing to be connected to a specific crime. This form of confiscation entered into force on 8 November 2024 and departs from the traditional requirement that property must be linked to a con

Gränsöverskridande ombildningar gör det möjligt för aktiebolag att omvandlas till en motsvarande bolagsform i en annan medlemsstat inom EU eller EES utan att avvecklas och återbildas. Denna typ av omstrukturering är ett uttryck för den etableringsfrihet som följer av EU-rätten, och utgör samtidigt en viktig möjlighet för företag att effektivisera sin verksamhet och anpassa sig till nya marknader eCross-border conversions allow limited liability companies to convert into an equivalent corporate form in another EU or EEA Member State without being dissolved and re-established. This type of restructuring is a manifestation of the freedom of establishment under EU law and serves as an important opportunity for companies to streamline their operations and adapt to new markets or legal systems.

Utmärkande för aktiebolaget som associationsform är att varken aktieägare eller bolagsledning bär ett personligt ansvar för bolagets förpliktelser. Enbart bolagets egna tillgångar kan därför tas i anspråk för dess skulder. För att balansera det begränsade personliga ansvaret mot borgenärernas intresse av att få betalt för sina fordringar innehåller aktiebolagslagen (2005:551) (ABL) bestämmelser soA characteristic feature of the limited liability company as a form of association is that neither shareholders nor directors of the board are personally liable for the company’s obligations. Only the company’s own assets can therefore be used to pay its debts. In order to balance the limited personal liability against creditors’ interest in receiving payment for their claims, Chapter 17 of the Sw

This study examines how a feminist anti-racist organization challenges colonial narratives and power dynamics within the development field. Rooted in the recognition of colonial, capitalist, and patriarchal structures shaping development, the research focuses on decolonization as a means to disrupt these power dynamics. In the case study of IM, a Swedish development organization, this thesis looks

Sweden’s adoption of a feminist foreign policy in 2014 was the first of its kind, marking a significant shift in how it would conduct its foreign policy. Since then, the effect feminist foreign policies have on feminist discourse has been a growing field of study. This thesis adds to this by examining the relationship between actors, foreign policy, and feminist discourse. By combining feminist in

This master's thesis delves into the role of humanitarian engineering interventions in fostering community empowerment. Focusing on two case studies in Tanzania conducted by Engineers Without Borders Sweden (EWB-SWE), the research provides a comprehensive analysis of the impacts, challenges, and opportunities associated with such interventions. Drawing on literature from community empowerment,

This research explores Bolivia's environmental policy through the lens of Latin American Feminist Political Ecology (LAFPE) to examine the integration of gender perspectives into environmental governance. Drawing from discourse analysis of official Bolivian government documents and speeches, the study evaluates the alignment between Bolivia's environmental policy and LAFPE principles, part

Image retrieval is the task of finding images in a database similar to a given query image. The retrieved images, typically a small subset of the entire database, are initially ordered based on their similarity with the query. They can subsequently be re-ranked to improve the retrieval accuracy. Database images that are relevant to the query should increase in rank and vice versa. In this thesis

Uppsatsen undersöker den svenska lagreformen av våldtäktsbrottet år 2018, som innebar införande av samtyckeslagen och oaktsam våldtäkt som ett nytt brott. Reformen, motiverad delvis av #metoo-rörelsen 2017, fokuserade på att bedöma om deltagandet i en sexuell handling var frivilligt eller inte, i stället för att kräva våld, hot eller utnyttjande som tidigare. Trots lagens tydlighet har rättspraxisThe essay examines the Swedish legal reform of the rape offense in 2018, which introduced the consent law and negligent rape as a new offense. The reform, partly motivated by the #metoo movement in 2017, focused on assessing whether participation in a sexual act was voluntary or not, rather than requiring violence, threat, or coercion as before. Despite the clarity of the law, judicial practice ha

Modernity, language and western culture are some of the explanations of why ‘the climate crisis can be perceived as a crisis of our imagination’. These concerns around storytelling are investigated based on the degrowth concept of ‘decolonization of the imaginary’ and sociological theories on the absence of socio-ecological imaginations. I build upon the novel method Story Completion (SC) that inv

The development of Artificial Intelligence(AI) and Machine Learning(ML) has highly increased over the past decades, with numerous research projects developing AI and ML models for clinical decision support. Many of these projects showcase promising results in the lab, however, when set in a real-life clinical setting most models perform significantly worse, resulting in only a few models transitio

Climate change is escalating. In the search for alternatives to fossil fuels, many countries are pushing green hydrogen as an energy vector. The development of a hydrogen economy is planned, and social and ecological consequences are at risk of being neglected. Namibia has excellent conditions for renewables and plans to be a major exporter of green hydrogen. Germany is set to import green hydroge

Mindfulness is not only relevant for enhancing humans’ well-being but also the well-being of our planet through pro-environmental behaviour. In recent years, this possible connection of mindfulness with pro-environmental behaviour has received increasing attention in research.
