Framställningen syftar till att undersöka hur HD:s tolkning av kommersiella entreprenadavtal utvecklats. För att uppnå syftet utreds hur entreprenadavtal ska tolkas, hur praxis har utvecklats på området sedan år 2000 samt vilka konsekvenser utvecklingen kan medföra. Entreprenadavtal är inte lagreglerade i svensk rätt och sparsamt behandlade i doktrin. Termen kan förstås som ett avtal där entrepreThe purpose of the thesis is to examine how the interpretation of construction contracts has evolved by the Supreme Court. The thesis examines how the contracts should be interpreted, how the precedents have developed in the field since year 2000 and what consequences the development could bring. Construction contracts are not regulated by Swedish law and are rarely treated in the doctrine. A con

Partial migration, defined as when only some individuals within a population migrate whereas others remain as year-round residents, is ubiquitous in the animal kingdom. However, the reasons why some, but not all individuals migrate are not fully understood. Results from multiple recent studies indicate that the propensity to migrate often is flexible and influenced by ecological factors such as fo

Global steel production is currently dependent on coal and capital-intensive production facilities with long economic lifetimes. While the Paris Agreement means carbon neutrality must be reached globally by 2050–2070, with negative emissions thereafter, coal-based steel production today accounts for around 8% of global energy-related CO2 emissions. Its production may stabilize or even decline in i

This chapter aims to offer insights into the wider implications for the rule of law, including for the EU constitutional order, of the restrictions of migrants’ and asylum-seeker’ rights that follow from systematic noncompliance with the Common European Asylum System (CEAS) by certain Member States. In other words, has the migration and asylum crisis developed into an EU constitutional crisis? Th

Om naturagäldenären i ett avtal delegerar vidare sin prestationsskyldighet enligt avtalet till en tredje part uppkommer en så kallad kontraktskedja. I praktiken är dessa vanligt förekommande, inte minst vid entreprenadavtal där en generalentreprenör kan anlita en mängd olika underentreprenörer för att uppfylla avtalsförpliktelsen mot beställaren. Om en sådan tredje part, det vill säga det bakre leWhen the debtor of a contract delegates his duty to perform under the contract to a third party, a chain of contracts is created. This type of chain of contracts often appears within construction agreements, when the contractor enters into an agreement with a sub-contractor in order to fulfil his obligations towards the employer. If this third party commits a wrongful act, which causes harm to the

The purpose of this thesis is to examine whether the reverse charge mechanism is an efficient method to solve the VAT fraud problem in the construction sector in Sweden. To be able to answer the stated question, the effects of the reverse charge mechanism will be evaluated. The effects of the reverse charge mechanism are then analysed as to whether they are proportional to the goal, which is to de

Being stateless, roughly means being without a citizenship of any nation. This is the definition of being stateless in legal terms, called de jure statelessness. There is also statelessness that entails being without the efficient protection of one’s nation, called de facto statelessness. Two groups of stateless migrants that correspond to these definitions are Bidoons from Kuwait and Palestinians

The European Union is facing several challenges of constitutional, democratic, political and social nature. One of these challenges is the EU’s ‘social deficit’. The European Commission has listened to the critique and committed itself to reorient the European integration project towards a ‘Social Europe’. The addition of social provisions to primary law through the Treaty of Lisbon, a promised re

This thesis orbits around the changes in the Swedish abortion laws during the last century, and the relation to religion. The aim is to make visible the values enshrined in the first abortion law, and those in the current abortion law, as the legislation made a volte-face in the 1970’s. Today, abortion is a right and the state is the duty-bearer. This construction collides with the conscience of r

Track switches are vital parts in the railway construction. They meet an important feature when planing and stearing the traffic flow through them to increase capacity. To ensure functionality during winter they have since the 50- century systematically installed switch heating with different technical solutions but with the same objective, to keep the moving parts on the switch free from snow and

How can design be used to minimize negative environmental impact? I strongly believe that we, human beings, are facing an unavoidable paradigm shift. The world we have created for ourselves is a ticking bomb and we need to rethink the fundamental system in order to have a future at all. In this project the goal was to understand what role design can play in the process of reaching a more sustaina

Modern military multi-role combat aircrafts need an emergency power system (EPU) to maintain back-up power supply for all normal and degraded flight modes. The reason for this requirement is that modern combat aircrafts are designed with built-in relaxed or negative stability. Inability of the Flight Control System to perform continuous, corrective control surface actuation, due to loss of power

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bröstcancer är den vanligaste cancerdiagnosen hos svenska kvinnor, ca 8000 tumörer diagnosticeras årligen. Vid rekommendation om behandling till patienter med nyupptäckt bröstcancer utgår man från ett antal prognostiska (risk för återfall och död utan behandling) och prediktiva (risk för återfall och död med specifik behandling) faktorer. Ålder, tumörstorlek, cancercellBreast cancer is a heterogeneous disease with variations in the biological profile and subsequent clinical prognosis. Molecular mechanisms for tumour progression are currently being explored in scientific settings, suggesting parallel evolution of tumour cells at primary and metastatic locations. The molecular profiles could be altered affecting individual patient’s treatment and prognosis. In the

Popular Abstract in Swedish Bakgrund och metod Diagnosen språkstörning ställs när ett barn inte utvecklar sina språkliga förmågor i förväntad takt och där inga andra underliggande svårigheter, såsom ofullständig språklig stimulans, hörselproblem, eller avvikande neurologisk utveckling, kan förklara problemen. Språkstörning är en relativt vanlig funktionsnedsättning som drabbar runt sju procent av
