Förevarande uppsats behandlar vårdnadsregleringen i 6 kap. föräldrabalken (1949:381) och huvudsakligen principen om barnets bästa. Den finns i 6 kap. 2 a § FB som stadgar att barnets bästa skall vara avgörande för alla beslut om vårdnad. Att objektivt fastställa vad som är barnets bästa är idag inte möjligt. Vissa riktlinjer för domstolens bedömning finns i lag och förarbeten. Men lagstiftaren harThis essay deals with the legal custody legislation in chapter 6 of the Parental Code (1949), and primarily the principle of the best interests of the child. The principle can be found in 6.2 a § in the Parental Code, which stipulates that the best interests of the child shall be decisive for all decisions concerning legal custody. To objectively determine what is in the best interests of the chil

According to previous study, data-driven decisions can result in fact-based decisions that help a company flourish. National parks, particularly in developing countries, are not properly utilizing data as a decision-making tool, which is essential for enhanced competitiveness. Empirical re-sults show that the park administration makes most of its decisions based on established rules when implement

In 2008 occurred the beginning of what was to become the most comprehensive, global, financial crisis in modern time. The recent crisis has been substantial for most developed countries, where almost all Eurozone members have showed negative economic results. Our goal is to determine, with as much accuracy as possible, if austerity contributes to the Eurozone-countries’ recovery process from the E

Multi-Criteria Evaluation Analysis (MCEA) is a decision making method employed to solve optimization problems that require the evaluation of a set of criteria to build an optimal decision. Where MCEA is integrated with GIS, optimization problems with spatial aspects, such as finding the best location of a facility across an area, could be solved. MCEA is implemented through different criteria dec

Ownership is one of the most debated topics in Sweden and is incredibly fragmented. Some believe that constitutional property rights lead to restrictions in democracy, while others believe that constitutional property rights are important for democracy. This raises many follow-up questions, why is the subject so fragmented? Norrköping municipality is located in Östergötland county, the county has

Through Robert A. Dahl’s criteria of democracy I am in this bachelor’s thesis pursuing a normative analysis. I am using the criteria as values that are being examined through a normative given this value- method. The case I am examining is the implementation of road tolls in Gothenburg. The material analyzed, in order to see if the values are considered, are articles collected from local newspaper

The purpose of this paper is to highlight the connection between castles, commerce and urbanity in Scandinavia. This is made by comparing three Swedish royal castles. The castle in Stockholm has its roots in the twelfth or thirteenth century and was founded in connection with the contemporary town. Here are indications that the merchants in an early phase lived in the bailey of the castle. The casIt is generally accepted that there were well-established relationships between castles and commerce in medieval Sweden. However, to date, the complexities of those relationships have arguably not been fully explored. Through focusing on archaeological evidence from three very different examples, Stockholm, Borgholm and Piksborg, this paper seeks to illustrate the variety of often intimate and com

We describe and compare how methods based on the classical Rice’s formula for the expected number, and higher moments, of level crossings by a Gaussian process stand up to contemporary numerical methods to accurately deal with crossing related characteristics of the sample paths.We illustrate the relative merits in accuracy and computing time of the Rice moment methods and the exact numerical meth

The bone material from three archaeological occupation phases at Huseby Klev provides the best source of evidence currently available about the subsistence strategies of pioneer settlers in Northern Europe. The results from Huseby Klev indicate that the pioneer settlers initially relied heavily on marine mammals for their sustenance. This subsistence strategy changed during the second and third oc

Although renovation costs can lead to rent increases in energy retrofitting, it is often assumed that reductions in energy costs will counterbalance the rent increase. In Swedish multifamily housing, energy costs for heating are however generally included as a fixed component in the monthly rent, meaning that the rent increase after energy retrofitting corresponds to the net change in rent level aAlthough renovation costs can lead to rent increases in energy retrofitting, it is often assumed that reductions in energy costs will counterbalance the rent increase.

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) become more advanced and more accessible which leads to new ways of work. A rather new phenomenon is that of location independent workers (LIWs), who are enabled by these technologies to work while traveling the world. New ways of working assumingly lead to changes in the work-nonwork interface. This study takes a demands and resources approach to

Improvement of the Guatemalan national education system is a center for development. Many attempts have been made over the years to improve the system; one, in particular, is the creation of the National System for Teacher Training. This paper reviews the changes made to the National System for Teacher Training (SNFD) and places them into the larger context of the Guatemalan educational system. Th
