I Sverige råder fri bevisprövning. Det betyder att den dömande makten är fri att beakta allt som förekommit i målet, och är med några få undantag inte bunden av några rättsregler kring hur bevisningen ska värderas. Detta regleras i rättegångsbalken kapitel 35, och egentligen den enda instruktion domaren får inför denna uppgift är att prövningen ska vara ”samvetsgrann”. Så vad innebär detta? Är rätIn Sweden, the evaluation of evidence is free. This means that the court is free to take into account all that has occurred in the proceedings, and with a few exceptions, the judges are not bound by any legal rules regarding how the evidence is to be valued. This is regulated in rättegångsbalken, chapter 35, and really the only instruction the judge receives for this task is that the evaluation sh

Den föreliggande studiens syfte är således att undersöka relationen dem emellan för att se hur tendensen att svara på ett socialt önskvärt sätt påverkar dess relationer.

Denna studie syftar undersöka hur och med vilka intentioner hållbarhet integreras och implementeras av organisationer i en delningsekonomisk kontext.

However, considering economy’s increasing financialisation and the growing science behind the financ

I dagsläget regleras såväl prostitution som pornografi inom ramen för brottsbalkens bestämmelser. Skillnader föreligger dock med hänsyn till vilka intressen som ansetts skyddsvärda och vilket behov av kriminalisering som enligt lagstiftaren ansetts föreligga. Endast prostitution är i dagsläget kriminaliserat i svensk rätt. Syftet med förevarande uppsats är att fördjupa förståelsen för vad som anseProstitution and pornography are both regulated within the framework of Swedish criminal law. However, differences exist regarding which interests that are considered worthy of protection and to which extent a need for criminalization exists. Prostitution is currently criminalized in Sweden while pornography is not. The purpose of this essay is to gain a deeper understanding of which acts are to b

Kommersiella godstransporter till sjöss är en viktig del av den globala handeln. Med tanke på hur planeten är konstruerad är det osannolikt att det kommer att ändras.

Därför syftade The Future of Carriage

Vår nuvarande skattelagstiftning är ett resultat av den skattereform som fortlöpte under 90-talet. Syftet med den nya skattelagstiftningen var att skapa ett effektivt skattesystem som också var förtroendeingivande. För att uppnå detta tog man fasta i några grundläggande rättsprinciper, vissa med en gedigen historia och vissa som var nyare på området. Några exempel är legalitetsprincipen, neutralitThe current Swedish tax regulation is a result of the tax reform in the 1990’s. Its purpose was to create a new more effective tax system that would also be trusted by the people.
