En återkommande fråga i svensk skadeståndsrätt har varit vilket ansvar föräldrar ska tillskrivas då deras barn vållar skada. Genom en lagreform år 2010 infördes ett principalansvar, med innebörden att en förälder som har vårdnaden om ett barn ska ersätta skada som barnet orsakar genom brott. Anknytningen till brottslighet hänger samman med lagstiftningens syfte. Den bakomliggande tanken var att prA frequent question in Swedish tort law has been what liability parents should have when their children cause damage. Through an amendment of law in 2010 a vicarious liability was introduced. A parent who has the custody of a child shall compensate damage caused by the child through crime. The connection to crime is related to the aim of the legislation. The underlying thought was that the vicario

The fight against malaria in Kenya is tightly connected to gender inequalities. The traditional gender roles in some households create exposure patterns that affect the most vulnerable groups: pregnant women and children. Current political strategies to prevent malaria in pregnancy rely on community health volunteers (CHVs), who fulfil a crucial role as implementers of malaria policies on communit

The Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) has a big impact on the national agricultural sector in the EU member states, but the policy can be contentious due to the economic, social and environmental challenges it faces. This essay is testing the hypothesis that these three divisions creates three frameworks under which a divergence in the environmental values can be perceived and comprehended. The cho

The relation between the descriptive and substantive representation has since its beginning been thought to be of the correlated kind, that having the former would also implicate having the latter - at least to some extent. What research has shown us is that the nature of the relation is not as straightforward as we once thought. Former studies on the subject has come to contrarious conclusions, p

Every year children are born with variations of sex characteristics that do not fit in the typical definitions for female or male bodies. Because of sex assignment procedures, intersex children are investigated, diagnosed and in many cases “treated” with surgical and hormonal interventions, sometimes irreversible and given without the individual’s consent. These procedures pinpoints the ambivalent

The southernmost Swedish region of Scania, the Danish capital region and the Danish region of Zealand are combined into the metropolitan region of Greater Copenhagen, sometimes referred to as the Öresund region.

The purpose of this essay is to examine the ideas that are prominent in the Swedish disability policy regarding the stated goal of equal participation in society for all. In order to achieve this, I have chosen to focus on two documents, they are SOU 1982:46 Handlingsprogram i handikappfrågor and Prop. 2016/17:188 Nationellt mål och inriktning för funktionshinderspolitiken. I have examined these t

The aim is to see if these two theories are applicable on this case, and if so, they can help to better understand the subject of interest groups and political influence. The first theory of the study is a bit more evolved and gives room f

Climate-induced migration has received an increased amount of attention as an area of research. Earlier studies identify ideal typical discourses of climate-induced migration, in which climates migrants have been positioned as a ‘threat’, as ‘passive victims’ and most recently as ‘adaptable agent’. Drawing on poststructural discourse theory of Laclau and Mouffe and postcolonial theory this essay h

Den 3 juli 2016 trädde Europaparlamentets och rådets förordning (EU) nr 596/2015 av den 16 april 2014 om marknadsmissbruk, marknadsmissbruksförordningen (MAR), i kraft.

I början av 1800-talet fanns det ingen lagstadgad rätt för mannen att bruka mildare fysiskt våld mot sin hustru, men inte heller något förbud. Det hade fram till 1734 års lag varit tillåtet, så länge hon inte fick synliga skador. Våld i nära relation är ett nutida begrepp och inte något som diskuterades eller användes på 1800-talet. Begreppet har använts i uppsatsen i syfte att studera vilka handlIn the early 19th century, there was no statutory right for a man to use milder physical violence against his wife, but no prohibition. It had been allowed until the 1734 law, as long as she did not receive visible injuries. Violence in close relationship is a contemporary concept and not something that was discussed or used in the 19th century. The term has been used in the paper in order to stud

Barnäktenskap är ett fenomen som är vanligt förekommande i stora delar av världen. År 2004 infördes lagbestämmelser om att utländska barnäktenskap inte ska erkännas i Sverige om minst en av parterna haft anknytning till Sverige. För att stärka skyddet mot barnäktenskap skärptes lagen ytterligare år 2014. Under år 2018 lade regeringen fram ett förslag till ny lag om att förbjuda erkännandet av utläChild marriage is a phenomenon existing in many parts of the world. In 2004 a new law came into force stating that Sweden does not recognize foreign child marriages if at least one of the parts has ties to Sweden. In order to achieve an increased protection against child marriage the legislation was further strengthened in 2014. In 2018 the Swedish government presented a proposition to a new law f

All other variables were kept the same. To

Den 1 april 2019 kommer en ny djurskyddslag träda i kraft. En av de stora och viktiga ändringar för djurskyddet är att ett kunskapskrav ska införas i lagen. Ambitionen var att även ett utbildningskrav skulle införas i lagen men det visade sig vara oproportionerligt och alldeles för betungande för de enskilda. Ett problem som brukar förekomma vid ikraftträdande av en ny lag är att de nya bestämmeOn April 1, 2019, a new law will replace the current Swedish animal welfare law (1988: 534). One of the major and important changes for animal welfare is that the knowledge requirement is to now be introduced into the law. Worth to mention is that there also was an ambition to introduce the education requirement into the law. However, this proved to be disproportionate and too demanding. A probl
