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. OTC-derivatives, which are tailor-made bilateral financial instruments, have in the aftermath of the collapse been accused of being one of the culprits. More specifically, OTC-derivatives are believed to have contributed to the opaque financial market that made it impo

The adoption of a so-called consent-based rape law has been heavily debated for over two decades. On July 1st, 2018 a rape clause based on voluntarism was introduced. As a result, the rape regulation was extended in such a way that it no longer requires force, or exploitation of a particular vulnerable situa-tion, for criminal liability to occur. The purpose of the new rape regulation is to protec

Dopamine receptor D1 modulates glutamatergic transmission in cortico-basal ganglia circuits and represents a major target of L-DOPA therapy in Parkinson’s disease. Here we show that D1 and metabotropic glutamate type 5 (mGlu5) receptors can form previously unknown heteromeric entities with distinctive functional properties. Interacting with Gq proteins, cell-surface D1-mGlu5 heteromers exacerbated

On July 1 this year, a new crime for involving a minor in crime will be introduced in Chapter 16, Section 5 a of the Swedish Penal Code. In the government bill, the purpose of the new criminalization is described as protecting society from young people being drawn into criminal networks.

Until July 1, 2018, Swedish legislation lacked a general remedy for delays in the authorities’ handling of cases. With the introduction of section 12 of the Public Administration Act the remedy, often referred to as the delay action, came to change the Swedish Migration Agency’s routine handling of citizenship applications. Authorities would henceforth not be able to act passively in the handling

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. Transitions of this kind are largely positive and generate an exchange of experience that benefits both sectors. However, transitions from employment in the public sector to the private sector can give rise to what is known as the revolving door problem. This

The Swedish age of criminal responsibility means that children under 15 who commit offences cannot be sentenced to any penalty.

At the time of its crea-tion, the purpose of an evidentiary proceeding was to provide the child wel-fare authorities with
