Utvecklingen av skadeståndssanktionen i EU:s konkurrensrätt – no guts no glory
Trots tydlig rättspraxis och en stark politisk vilja att säkra rätten för varje enskild eller företag som lidit skada vid brott mot EU:s konkurrensregler – i synnerhet artiklarna 101 och 102 Fördraget om Europeiska unionens funktionssätt (EUF) - att kunna söka kompensation, så har det konkurrensrättsliga skadeståndet inte fått något större genomslag. Europakommissionen (”Kommissionen”) har med andDespite the clear view of the European Commission (“the Commission”) and the European Court of Justice (“the ECJ”) that any citizen or business suffering harm following a breach of the EU competition rules - in particular Articles 101 and 102 of the Treaty of the Functioning of the European Market (TFEU) - should be able to obtain damages from the infringing party, to this date, damages have only
Energy Policy Development in a Non-OECD Context - Early Experiences of Energy Efficiency Policy for Residential Buildings in Argentina
The reliability of energy supply is crucial for the well-being of individuals and the prosperityof countries. At the same time, energy production is closely connected to CO2 emissions,which is believed to have an important impact on human-induced global warming. In light ofresultant, partly counteracting challenges, energy efficiency has gained increasing attention as ameans of ensuring energy sup
Konsumentköplagens tillämpning på överlåtelse av hästar och en jämförelse av den skatte - och civilrättsliga betydelsen av näringsverksamhet
Att bedriva yrkesmässig verksamhet med uppfödning och träning av hästar som huvudsaklig syssla har blivit vanligt förekommande. Liksom för all yrkesmässig verksamhet, behöver ett företag som arbetar med hästar nå upp till en viss ekonomisk nivå för att anses vara näringsdrivande och inte klassas som hobbyverksamhet. Dessa krav kan vara svåruppnåeliga för en hästföretagare, vilket ofta beror på attIn Sweden the Consumer Sales Act (Konsumentköplagen 1990:932) is applied on sales of movables, when the seller is a businessman and the buyer is a consumer. The law was modified in 2002 after an EU-initiated directive - Directive on the Sales of Consumer Goods and Associated Guarantees (1999/44/EC). The directive applies to all member states in the EU and sets out the minimum level of consumer pro
Preparing for the Roll-Out of Electric Vehicles: Exploring how cities can become plug-in ready
The mass production of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) is expected to start in the coming years. Climate change, peak oil and the automotive and economic crisis have put a significant pressure on the current transportation regime. Increasing urbanisation, range and efficiency advantages of PEVs in city traffic and the problem of urban air pollution have moved cities into the focus of PEV dissemin
Energy supply transitions in Swedish municipalities. Transferability of the lessons learnt to Tandil, Argentina
The author of this thesis wishes to contribute to transitions towards more sustainable energy systems in Argentina. In order to do so, two objectives are established. The first one refers to increasing the understanding of the transitions taken place at the local level within energy supply systems in Sweden. The second objective is to increase the understanding of the conditions that need to be in

Anti-Corruption Regulation in Sweden and Abroad
De negativa effekter som korruption har på såväl enskilda nationer som det globala samhället i helhet är kända och väl dokumenterade. Ändå betalas uppskattningsvis tusen miljarder amerikanska dollar varje år i mutor över hela världen och både individer och organisationer erkänner att de begått korrupta handlingar. Intresset för att bekämpa korruption har ökat väsentligt under senare år, både på nThe negative effects that corruption has on both individual nations and the global society as a whole are known and well documented. Still, an estimated one trillion US dollars (US $1.000 billion) is paid each year in bribes worldwide and both individuals and organizations testify to engaging in corrupt behavior. The interest in fighting corruption has grown significantly in recent years, both i

To be or not to be – granting WTO rules direct effect within the EU
I ett antal år har EU-domstolen fått ta ställning till den potentiella konflikt som existerar mellan EU-rätten och reglerna inom WTO. En särskilt uppmärksammad fråga är huruvida WTO-reglerna kan ge upphov till direkt effekt inom EU:s rättssystem, dvs. att de kan åberopas av individer i medlemsländernas domstolar. EU-domstolen har bedömt att WTO-reglerna generellt inte kan ge upphov till direkt effFor a number of years, the European Court of Justice has had to deal with the potential conflict between the law of the European Union and the law of the World Trade Organization. One issue that has gained particular interest is the question of whether the rules of the WTO give rise to direct effect within the EU legal system, meaning that they can be invoked by individuals in the courts of EU Mem

Incitamentsprogram - En aktiebolagsrättslig studie av regleringen för aktiemarknadsbolag
Under de senaste åren har incitamentsprogram har blivit ett allt vanligare tillvägagångssätt för att kompensera bolagsledningar. Vanligtvis består programmen av en blandning av fasta och rörliga ersättningar som kan baseras på kontanta och aktierelaterade incitament. Den ökade användningen av incitamentsprogram kan förklaras genom agentteorin. Enligt teorin kan principalen styra agentens handlanDuring the last decades incentive programs have become increasingly more popular in terms of rewarding top-management. Ordinarily the schemes consist of a mix of fixed and variable pay, which may be based on either monetary or stock-related incentives. The augmented use of incentive schemes may be explained by agency theory. The theory provides that a principal may control the behavior of an agen
Implementation of Activity Based Costing - a case study at a make-to-order company
Four problem areas with FrontPac‟s previous cost estimation system were identified. First, only a few properly skilled employees are actually able to perform cost estimations due to the system‟s user requirements. Second, salespersons cannot estimate the cost for orders by themselves which significantly increases the time to approximate price in the sales process. Third, neither can they perform s

In September 2010, following the national elections, the Swedish Democrats (SD) made their entry in to the Swedish Parliament. Accordingly, many argued that the European right-wing trend had eventually reached Sweden. This thesis stems from the assumption that SD is being frequently alienated in Swedish media. On the basis of theories treating power and identity construction, I argue that the ali
Resultatutjämning - En jämförande studie mellan de svenska och danska reglerna i ett EU-rättsligt perspektiv
Sammanfattning Inom koncerner kan det vara en betydande fördel att kunna resultatutjämna mellan bolagen. Olika länder har olika regelsystem för att möjliggöra resultatutjämning. Utöver de nationella lagstiftningarna måste varje medlemsland inom unionen ta hänsyn till EU-rätten. EU-domstolen kommer löpande med nya avgöranden där medlemsstaternas lagar anses vara förenliga eller oförenliga med EU-räSummary Within groups of companies there might be a considerable advantage if there is a possibility to neutralize the result between the companies. Different countries have, to make neutralization of the results possible, various legislation. In addition to the national legislations, every member of the Union has to take EU-Law into consideration. The Court of Justice of the European Union is cur
Role of Triple Helix in Emerging Regional Innovation System of Bangalore
