Det svenska samhället har under längre tid sett ut så att skyddet för familjelivet, den privata sfären, vägt tyngre än ett offentligrättsligt styrande. Den rättsliga utvecklingen har dock under tid varit föränderlig och lagstiftaren har vägt in parametrar som att barn kan vara utsatta i familjelivet där de som skall ta hand om dem är de som utsätter barnen för skadliga handlingar. Enligt FN:s barnSwedish society has for some time looked to the protection of family life, private life, weighed heavier than a public ruling. The legal development, however, has been changing over time, and the legislature has weighed in parameters that children can be exposed in family life where those who must care for them are those who expose children to harmful acts. According to the UNCRC, the child's
Lag om tillfälliga begränsningar av möjligheten att få uppehållstillstånd i Sverige (benämns fortsättningsvis som den tidsbegränsade lagen) trädde i kraft 20 juli 2016 och innebär att möjligheten för alternativt skyddsbehövande att återförenas med sin familj i Sverige begränsas avsevärt. Familj till alternativt skyddsbehövande har endast rätt till uppehållstillstånd om nekandet av familjeåterförenThe temporary law of limitations regarding the possibility of being granted residence permit in Sweden (latterly known as the temporary law) took effect on July 20, 2016. It severely limits the possibility for persons eligible for subsidiary protection to be reunited with their family in Sweden. Family belonging to persons eligible for subsidiary protection only have the right to obtain a residenc
Fast driftställe är ett vedertaget begrepp i inkomstskatterättsliga sammanhang. Begreppet finns definierat i såväl OECDs modellavtal som i den svenska inkomstskattelagen. Definitionen har i stort sett varit oförändrad sedan dess införande. I dagens allt mer globaliserad värld, där multinationella företag bedriver handel såväl inom som över landsgränserna, har begreppets ålderstigna definition meThe Permanent Establishment status is a concept in the income tax law context. The term is defined in the Model Tax Convention of OECD and the Swedish Income Tax Act. The definition has with minor changes remained unchanged since its introduction. In today's increasingly globalized world, where multinational corporations are acting within and across national borders, weaknesses in the current
Enligt den senaste statistiken sitter cirka 4 100 personer i svenska fängelser. Kriminalvården är en förvaltningsmyndighet med förhållandevis omfattande utrymme att fatta egna beslut om hur övervakningen av intagna i fängelse ska utformas. Detta innebär att Kriminalvården får fatta och vidta flera olika beslut respektive åtgärder. Kraven på rättssäkerhet är dock olika högt ställda inom olika delarThere are approximately 4 100 people incarcerated in Swedish prisons. They are in the custody of The Swedish Prison and Probation Service (SPPS). SPPS is the authority in charge of the correctional institutional treatment of offenders. The SPPS’ measures and decisions taken within the prisons can be sorted into three main categories: to maintain order and security within the prisons, to prepare in
This Master's thesis aims to investigate librarians' identity construction through the study of their narratives about themselves and their lives. We want to understand in what way the education in Library- and Information science contributes to shape the students professional identity and how these identities then continue to be transformed when they enter their professional lives. We ass
The aim with this study has been to examine and to analyze the discourse of Rosengård in Swedish media. With the concept of discourse is meant here specific ways to speak about and to understand the world, or a part of it. In order to reach increased understanding regarding media presentations and constructions of Rosengård, I have done a study about how Rosengård has been presented in the Swedish
The complexity with which modern science develops and drives the scientific community to reorganise makes it important to analyse what organisational forms research activity takes and why. Collaboration becomes a flexible arrangement designed to meet scientific challenges by scientists and non-scientists in common. It is increasingly recognised to be the best, or even perhaps the only way of achie
A detailed diatom record from Lake Kälksjön, west-central Sweden, reveals two periods of abrupt ecological change correlative with the 8.2 ka cooling event. Using a combination of abrupt step changes and piece-wise linear regressions, the diatom data were analysed for change points over time, and two sudden and large events that are described as regime shifts were detected. During the first event
Finanskrisen har haft en global inverkan på det finansiella systemet och har krävt en översyn av hur finansiella åtaganden och överväganden hanteras. Krisen har även satt igång en debatt kring hur vissa sedan länge allmänt accepterade principer om interna bolagsstyrningsfrågor ska hanteras. Ett av de mest framstående problemen som har fått mycket uppmärksamhet av många olika intressenter är ersättThe financial crisis that has been recently affecting the financial sector at a global level has led to the need to reflect on the way financial undertakings are managed. Consequently, it has also triggered a reflection on some commonly accepted and generalised principles related to internal governance. One of the most prominent issues that have been attracting the attention of different stakehold
The question of choice is a fundamental issue in the discussion of human mobilities. In the context of natural disaster and resettlement programs, the affected population is reduced to victims devoid of agency, and their movements concluded as passive reactions. However, the post-tsunami mobility behaviour of the families in the Maldives after the devastating 2004 tsunami paints a very different p
Migratory movements in air or water are strongly affected by wind and ocean currents and an animal which does not compensate for lateral flow will be drifted from its intended direction of movement. We investigated whether arctic shorebirds during autumn migration in the region of South Sweden and the southern Baltic Sea compensate for wind drift or allow themselves to be drifted when approaching
Oil has been the major fossil fuel since the days of its discovering. It takes a special place in the international energy trade regime, as it is an exhaustible natural resource sensitive to political and economic changes. The instability in oil prices may lead to a considerable disruption of the global economy. The ongoing liberalization of oil markets, the forthcoming WTO accessions of major ene
The purpose of this thesis was to examine the EC Commission's role and policy in the EC control of state aid to companies that risk going out of business. The thesis explores the Commission's role in relation to the Member States as well as to the Community courts. It also examines the Commission's policy towards such aid in order to establish whether the Commission is coherent in its
Eco-labels show consumers which products' impact (multi-criteria basis) on the environment is the smallest compared to competitively and functionally similar ones and is intended to change consumption patterns. Generally most voluntary eco-labelling schemes have similar distinctive features, the main goal being that of promoting environmentally 'superior' products in providing consumer
Problem: Since business process management (BPM) is a very spacious concept, it is influenced from many other concepts, standards and methods that determine its constancy. Companies are asked to restructure their organisation in order to meet internal and external customer demands. The term quality comes to the fore. Organisations such as ISO and the EFQM try to certify or assess companies in term
We will present results from a recently completed research project financed by BFUF (the R&D Fund of the Swedish Tourism & Hospitality Industry). We have explored German tourists and how they search for tourist information at home and while travelling in Sweden. The overall aim was to understand how tourists’ information search behaviour affects the choice of attractions. The project has b
Purpose: Western societies are currently facing major demographic changes, due to megatrends such as urbanization, ageing of the population, and migration. These disruptions placea lot of pressure on public services, and consequently on municipal facilities includingschools, day-care centres, and hospitals. The purpose of this study is to examine the potentialof modular facility solutions to respo
Key performance indexes (KPIs) in various forms have always been used in one way or another in the production and processing of raw materials. The need for KPIs was accentuated with the advent of industrialism in the western world. The way and strategy of manufacturing industrial products has been divided into several so-called developmental transformations. Primarily after the depression of the 1
Recent studies suggest that oncogenic processes (from precancerous lesions to metastatic cancers) are widespread in wild animal species, but their importance for ecosystem functioning is still underestimated by evolutionary biologists and animal ecologists. Similar to what has been observed in humans, environmental modifications that often place wild organisms into an evolutionary trap and/or expo
