Idag är ¬– för den juridiska personen – istället undantaget huvudregel, att lättnad sker, och att straff
Saudi Arabia ratified the Convention on the Elimination of all Forms of Discrimination against Women (CEDAW) in 2000. The ratification was a step forward for the strict gender segregated country but could not be genuinely hailed due to a general reservation giving prevalence to Islamic Law in case of conflict with the provision of the Convention. Whereas it can be established that a sweeping reser
In this essay the impacts of corruption on the bilateral trade of 25 EU countries from 1999 to 2008 are investigated. Corruption is the result of malfunctioning institutions and it leads investment flows to be less productive. Hence corruption is expected to impose cost on trade and therefore we expect that corruption mitigate the amount of trade. The negative impact of corruption on trade is most
Traditionally, most funding is made available when a disaster occurs. Disaster re-sponse is the implementation of what humanitarian actors did (or didn't do) in pre-paredness for any intervention. Based on a case study of a logistics change in the International Federation of Red Cross Red Crescent Society, this paper discusses how more funding of preparedness can radically improve the speed and qu

In recent years, two Swedish companies have been a focus of substantial media attention: TeliaSonera and Lundin Petroleum. The defensive strategies employed by these two businesses to deal with allegations of crime will be analysed on the basis of Stanley Cohen’s theoretical work on processes of denial and neutralisation techniques. This paper will focus on a particular form of denial, namely the In recent years, two Swedish companies have been a focus of substantial media attention: TeliaSonera and Lundin Petroleum.

Since the middle of the nineties, the amount of Regional Trade Agreements has risen sharply. This have created more opportunities for countries to join world trading and be more connected to the rest of the world. However, each trade agreement is unique and it is therefore interesting to evaluate if there are factors that are more important than others. This paper will be looking at combined GDP a

A game theoretical analysis of international policy is of great interest from an economist’s point of view and game theory has widely been used when analysing international trade, tariffs etc. In this thesis I will use “Cheap-Talk games” to analyse if threats from the U.S. targeting North Korea are having any impact. Cheap talk games are an application of the perfect Bayesian equilibrium of “dynam
Psykiskt störda lagöverträdare har ofta inte samma förutsättningar som andra att följa lagen då de kan ha en annan föreställning av, eller en annan förmåga att resonera kring, verkligheten. Det är vår föreställning av verkligheten som ger oss skäl att göra eller att inte göra vissa saker, och vår uppfattning om vilka följder vårt handlande kommer att få, får betydelse för om vi företar handlingen Mentally disordered offenders often do not have the same preconditions as others to follow the law as they may have a different perception of, or a different ability to reason about, reality. It is our perception of reality that gives us reason to do or not do certain things, and our perception of the consequences our actions will have has an impact on whether we undertake them or not. If you have

With the advent of social robots that can engage human beings on personal levels, for the first time,
Purpose: In patients with hemophilia B, treatment with extended half-life (EHL) recombi-nant factor IX allows for longer dosing intervals while providing equal or superior bleeding protection compared with standard half-life products. This enables flexible, individualized treatment schedules, which reduce the burden of prophylaxis and improve patient outcomes. This analysis compared the efficacy o
