Managed honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) are increasingly used worldwide to meet the growing demand for agricultural pollination services and honey production.

Denna avhandling undersöker oberoende kulturproduktion som idé(al) och fenomen, särskilt den centrala roll som samarbeten och ömsesidiga beroenden har för oberoende kulturaktörer. Samtida oberoende kulturproduktion både tillåter och kräver organisering i ett spänningsfält av olika förväntningar och begränsade rumsliga, finansiella och mänskliga resurser. I en tid av allt starkare politisk motvind,This thesis engages with the phenomenon of independent cultural production, which empirically shows itself as an idea(l) of self-determined cultural production and collaboration made possible through numerous different relationships. Independence, as a relational concept, achieved through in(ter)dependencies is what this thesis sets out to explore. Definitions of independence in cultural productio

Dagens svenska våldtäktslagstiftning kräver att gärningsmannen använt sig av tvång eller utnyttjande för att straffansvar ska föreligga. Det har ifrågasatts om denna utformning av våldtäktslagstiftningen istället borde ersättas med en bestämmelse där samtycke ges en avgörande betydelse. Med en samtyckesbaserad våldtäktsreglering skulle den utslagsgivande faktorn för om ett brott har begåtts eller The Swedish rape legislation of today uses force as the delineator between non-criminal sex and criminal rape.

Vid försvarlighetsbedömningen ska poliser och enskilda utövare av nödvärn granskas enligt samma principer, eftersom polisen rent straffrättsligt ska betraktas som privatperson.
