I denna uppsats jämförs utvecklingen av rekryteringsprocessen av justitieråd till de respektive högsta domstolarna i USA och Sverige. Båda domstolarna inrättades 1789 under starkt inflytande av Charles-Louis de Secondats, Baron de La Bréde et de Montesquies teorier om maktdelning. Först analyseras i kronologisk ordning hur justitieråd väljs och tillsätts i USA respektive Sverige. USA:s president n

Amidst debates on the potential adverse consequences of high-technology industries on employment, it is imperative to gain a deeper understanding of how high-tech industries shape labour markets outcomes across various socio-economic, institutional, and geographical contexts.
