Denna uppsats syftar till att, ur ett kritiskt legalitets- och rättssäkerhetsperspektiv, undersöka förarbetens roll vid lagtolkning på straffrättens område, särskilt vad gäller straffmätning. År 2014 ändrades straffet för mord. I lagtextens förarbeten angavs ett tydligt syfte med ändringen: straffet för mord skulle skärpas och livstidsstraff skulle bli ”normalstraffet” för mord i det att det skuThis essay aims to examine the use of legal preparatory works when interpreting criminal law in Sweden. The examination is conducted from a critical perspective with a focus on the principle of legality and the requirement of legal certainty. In 2014 the provision regulating the penalty for murder was altered. The legal preparatory works clearly expressed the purpose of the amendment: the penalt

Uppsåt spelar en mycket viktig roll inom straffrätten. För att en person skall vara juridiskt ansvarig för ett brottsligt beteende krävs inte bara att han har handlat på ett visst sätt utan även att han ur ett moraliskt perspektiv kan anses bära skuld. Detta framgår tydligt av brottsbalkens inledande bestämmelser. Där konstateras att ett handlande som uppfyller de objektiva brottsrekvisiten aldrigIntent is something that plays a very important role in criminal law. In order for someone to be legally responsible for a criminal act requires not only that he has acted in a certain way, but also that he from a moral point of view can be considered to have guilt. This circumstance is evidenced by the two initial provisions of the Swedish Penal Code (BrB). These provisions state that an act that

Svenska aktiebolags verksamhet regleras i ABL och i bolagsordningen. Aktieägare kan utöver att förlita sig på denna reglering även upprätta så kallade aktieägaravtal för att reglera sina inbördes förhållanden. Alltså uppstår risken för kollision mellan lagstadgade normer och avtalade normer. Den aktiebolagsrättsliga separationsprincipen innebär att avtalade normer saknar aktiebolagsrättslig verkaThe operation of Swedish limited companies is regulated in the Swedish Companies Act (ABL) and in the articles of association. Beyond relying upon these rules, shareholders may enter into shareholder’s agreements with each other concerning the privileges and liabilities that they enjoy due to their share ownership. Thus, there is a risk of collision between the regulations stated in the law and

Livstidsstraffet är det strängaste straffet som svenska domstolar kan utdöma och det har under lång tid diskuterats om påföljden borde avskaffas. Den här uppsatsen inriktar sig på en analys av det svenska livstidsstraffet för mord enligt 3 kap 1 § BrB. Syftet med denna uppsats är att redogöra för hur den svenska lagstiftaren motiverat existensen av fängelse på livstid. Frågeställningar som utreds

Målet med Miljöbalken (1998:808) är att främja en hållbar utveckling och att tillförsäkra levande och kommande generationer en hälsosam och god livsmiljö. I 2 kap. MB återfinns de allmänna hänsynsreglerna. Reglerna är utformade på sådant sätt att de ska tillämpas inom ramarna för vad som anses rimligt enligt 2 kap. 7 § MB. Alla tänkbara verksamheter som inverkar på miljön menligt ska ska föregåsThe purpose of the Swedish Environmental Code is to provide a sustainable development and assure the prosperity for present and future generations with regards to public health and wellbeing. Within the second chapter of the Swedish Environmental Code the rules of consideration are found. The rules were crafted in such a manner that they are meant to be applicable under the scope of what is consi

Varje stat har rätt att kontrollera sina gränser och bestämma vem som får vistas på det egna territoriet. Ett undantag från denna statssuveränitet är den absoluta rätten för skyddssökande att söka asyl. I och med att vi har fått en kontrollerad invandring i Sverige har vikten av att skilja mellan asylrätten och de bestämmelser som reglerar arbetskraftsinvandring blivit viktig. För att få arbeta Every state has the right to control their borders and decide who is allowed on their territory. An exception to this state sovereignty is the right to seek asylum. With regards to the developments of controlled immigration in Sweden, the importance of distinguishing between asylum law and the rules governing labour immigration has become vital. What this essay examines is what happens when two re

The UK has one of the lowest rates of social mobility in the developed world. While ample research has been published on the stratification of British society resulting from this, far less UK-specific work looks to unpack the processes which ensure these divides persist. This study reviews wider social mobility literature to demonstrate how inequality of opportunity in human capital development co

Abstract: The Demand-Control Model and the Effort-Reward-Imbalance Model are two models of occupational health that connects psychosocial work factors to health. Related research has often focused on small and homogenous samples and has rarely taken into account the eventual intermediating effect of different welfare regimes. Furthermore results regarding gender have been ambiguous. Through logist

This paper will illustrate legally knowledgeable judges’ experiences of working with lay judges in the district courts of Sweden, as well as their advantages and disadvantages within the judicial field. The system of lay judges has been subject for discussion both within the media and internally within the court. This may be partly due to the general lack of legal knowledge withheld by the lay jud

This thesis is written as an introductory compilation of two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy (2DES) and its applications. It introduces the concepts of 2DES where the aim is to provide an overview of the technique and a few of its more prominent applications for those who are not already familiar with the technique. 2DES is a third-order optics technique that utilizes three interactions with l

Asylsökande och flyktingar anses vara särskilt utsatta för psykisk ohälsa då pre- och postmigratoriska faktorer tillsammans kan bidra till en kumulativ ohälsoproblematik. Upplevelser av våld, krig och tortyr i hemlandet kan leda till svåra psykiska besvär samtidigt som osäkerhet kring asylprocessen, utanförskap och kommunikationssvårigheter ytterligare försvårar tillvaron i det nya landet.

This report discusses the implementation of machine learning algorithms for personalising question selection in a questionnaire-based self-report app for individuals suffering from mental health issues. A so-called \textit{Random Forest - Genetic Algorithm} (RFGA) hybrid prediction method is used to find an optimal set of relevant questions to pose to new users in the app. A complementary ad-hoc pTeaching computers to find factors that affect the mental health of app users By training computers to find patterns in how users answer questions regarding their mental health in self-report apps, factors that affect the users' psychological well-being can be found.

As the ‘era of borders’ can define the structure of the present European Union and its nation-state members, the rapid increase in international migration and the high amount of refugees can reveal how today’s EU politics has come to focus on the importance of maintaining the present-day European Union and its unifying identity. In consequence to the on-going politics, it is required to lower the

This bachelor thesis concerns the Swedish artist Maria Röhl (1801-1875). She had her peak in the 1840ties as the favorite portrait artist of the Swedish bourgeoisie and nobility. The questions I put forward in the thesis are focused on facial- and hand features in her drawings. From where do they originate? Does it have an origin in fashion, society or in con- temporary scientific views? The resea

Nonprofit organizations are an important element of society. They provide services, and advocate for change, through their programs. But how do they create their programs? This thesis defines nonprofit innovation as the implementation of a new or significantly improved program, and suggests we borrow practices used to understand firm innovation, to understand nonprofit innovation.

Intimiseringen har förändrat myndigheters språk och syn på medborgare, och myndigheter behöver idag inte markera sin auktoritet med ett maktspråk. Då språket vittnar om synen på medborgaren kommer jag att undersöka hur Stadsbyggnadskontoret i Malmö och dess mottagare konstrueras i förvaltningens bygglovstexter, samt vilken relation som skapas mellan dem i texterna. Mina frågeställningar är 1) Vilk

This master thesis aimed at exploring different methods of producing a beverage based on Lantmännen’s Swedish grown white beans. A flour was milled from beans that had been soaked and boiled in order to inactivate antinutrients such as lectins, trypsin inhibitors and phytic acid, and subsequently dried and milled. A water-based beverage with 8% bean flour was boiled for 5 min. 1.5% of rapeseed oil
