As a school welfare officer you are often alone of having your perspective and must struggle to preserve that perspective. At the same time, there are very little defined what role a social worker should have in a school. This makes it nessesary to form and develop your role of profession independently. According to the Swedish school law, the schools are not required to employ a welfare officer.
Innovation is the source of new products and processes that expand the frontiers of competition. Advancements in technology are continuously occurring throughout the world as firms seek to develop new ideas for their products, services and markets. Most technology licensing is pro-competitive and should be encouraged by competition authorities. Nevertheless, in legal and economic spheres the conne
One of the important problems concerning European Environmental law is the lack of coherence in the European legal system including Competition rules&semic granting state aid for environmental protection reasons is one of these problems. In this sense, after more than twenty years of community legislations in the field of environmental protection, the European commission adopts in the 1994 the
This thesis deals with the development of the EU asylum law and policy with focus on the role of burden-sharing and temporary protection. The Geneva Convention is the legal framework for community action. This is laid down by Article 63.1 of the EC Treaty. Article 63 does not only refer to the Geneva Convention, but also to other relevant Human Rights Treaties such as the 1948 Universal Declaratio
Fundamental rights as part of the general principles of Community law have come to play an increasing role in building the contemporary EU as being the core of postmodern constitutionalism. Internally the fundamental rights are important in order to justify a growing co-operation and to find and develop the common values of the region. The internal area has, however, a large, less famous twin in t
Syftet med detta arbete är att redogöra för reglerna kring avveckling av dödsbon i Sverige, d.v.s. reglerna om dödsboförvaltning och arvskifte. Behandlingen inriktar sig framför allt på formerna för förvaltningen – vem som har rätt att företräda dödsboet, hur denna behörighet uppkommer och vad den består i. Fokus ligger på hur dödsbodelägarnas samarbete är reglerat och vilka lösningar lagen erbjudThe aim of this thesis is to account for the rules surrounding the administration and distribution of the estate of a deceased person in Sweden. The study is concentrated on the personal representative, i.e. who has the right to administer an estate on death, how this authority arises and what it consists of. The main focus lies on the regulation of the joint administration of the beneficiaries of
Riskkapitalmarknaden kan härledas så långt tillbaka som till 1940-talet då de första private equity-investeringarna genomfördes i USA, och sedan dess har branschens utsträckning ständigt förändrats i takt med det rådande ekonomiska klimatet, både hög- och lågkonjunkturer, och är idag ett starkt etablerat fenomen även i Sverige. Private equity är den investeringsform som inom samlingsbegreppet risThe risk capital market can be traced as far back as the 1940s when the first private equity investment was made in the United States, and since then, the industry has constantly changed along with the current economic climate, and is today a strongly established phenomenon even in Sweden. The term private equity covers all investments that are made in unlisted companies and they typically involv
För drygt tio år sedan infördes sluten ungdomsvård som ersättning av fängelsestraffet för lagöverträdare mellan 15 och 17 år. Tidigare var fängelse enda påföljden som fanns att tillgå för unga som gjort sig skyldiga till mycket allvarlig brottslighet. Lagstiftaren fann situationen otillfredsställande, eftersom fängelsemiljön ansågs olämplig för unga personer. Istället skulle de unga nu beredas indOver ten years ago closed institutional youth care was introduced as a substitute of the prison sentence for offenders between the ages of 15 and 17. Previously, imprisonment was the only sanction for young people who have committed serious delinquency. The legislature found the situation unsatisfactory as the prison environment was considered harmful and inappropriate for young people. The respon
The solidarity clause was drafted a year after the terrorist attack in New York in 2001 and was informally further substantialised after the terrorist attack in Madrid in 2004. It became evident that terrorism is also a real and current threat to the Member States of the EU. The solidarity clause is now a part of the Constitutional Treaty (CT), which at the moment is subject to ratification in the
The Kosi River, called “the Sorrow of Bihar”, lies in Nepal and northern India, where it has caused devastating floods throughout the years. The river is known for its dynamic flows and high sediment load, leading to one of the largest alluvial fans in the world as well as avulsive shifting. The monsoonal dynamics in the region causes high fluctuation in the river discharge, with almost annual flo
Coordinated inventory control is a concept within inventory management where decisions are based on stock and demand situations throughout a whole system of interconnected warehouses and inventories, and where control parameters are simultaneously determined and set at all installations. This thesis is a part of a larger research collaboration project in coordinated inventory control where NGiL (N
The Swedish technical consultancy firms are today facing a number of exciting challenges. A majority of the firms’ larger customers have already established themselves in the international market. Simultaneously they have also begun to appreciate the need of a closer cooperation with a selected number of their suppliers. Hence, opportunities arise for the technical consultants to take on a larger
Chemicals are developed and produced in order to meet the desired features of various chemical products. Chemical substances can sometimes cause adverse health or environmental effects when humans and the environment are exposed to them. Landstinget Blekinge (the county council of Blekinge) uses large amounts of chemical products annually. Products such as cleaning products, hygiene products, dent
Critics maintain that there are a number of troublesome issues resulting from the construction sector’s way of operating and that these remain, despite widespread criticism and measures designed to change all of this. The construction sector’s and the critics’ manner of describing these problems fails to a large extent to take into consideration the way people function in connection with practical
A decade has passed since the first human embryonic stem cell (hESC) line was established, providing immense hope in curing diseases by cell replacement therapy. For instance, in the pancreas, the insulin-producing β-cells are damaged in diabetes patients, and a successful replacement of those cells could provide a cure. These cells can be replaced by organ donation, but owing to a profound scarci
Reinforced concrete is one of the most widely used building materials and if it is properly designed and produced, it is an extremely durable material with a service life up to 100 years. However, under certain environmental conditions the service life of reinforced concrete structures is more limited. Deterioration of concrete structure is in most cases caused by the penetration of aggressive med
Cervical cancer is the third most common cancer in women worldwide and the fourth leading cause of cancer death. In Western countries, it is the 10th most common cause of cancer death. Cervical cancer often affects young women (< 40 years) who have not finished childbearing. Robot assistance is the latest development in laparoscopic surgery. There is one robot commercially available for gynecologi
Efter det att ett offentligt uppköpserbjudande lämnats och accepterats av ägarna till över 90 % av aktierna (men inte samtliga) uppstår ett berättigat intresse för budgivaren att ta över resterande aktier. Syftet är ofta att effektivisera bolagsstyrningen, exempelvis att möjliggöra hållandet av en per capsulam-stämma istället för en administrativt betungande ordinarie stämma. Den kvarvarande minor
AI-system integreras alltmer inom en mängd olika sektorer. AI-system kan medföra effektivisering, men kan också innebära risker för medborgerliga fri- och rättigheter. EU:s AI-förordning försöker lösa detta genom en riskbaserad metod som inför rättsliga skyldigheter för leverantörer och tillhandahållare av AI-system med hög risk. Uppsatsen analyserar AI-förordningens bestämmelser för leverantörer AI systems are increasingly integrated across numerous sectors. While AI systems can bring efficiency gains, AI systems can also entail risks to fundamental rights of citizens. The EU AI Act tries to solve this through a risk-based approach which introduces legal obligations for providers and deployers of high-risk AI systems. This thesis explores the provisions for AI providers and deployers whic
In 2023, the Swedish state-owned enterprise LKAB garnered global attention by announcing the discovery of Europe’s largest rare earth elements deposit in Kiruna, Sweden’s northernmost town. This discovery is highly symbolic for the European Union (EU), given the critical role rare earth metals play in advancing clean energy technologies. However, as the deposit is situated on Indigenous land, it h
