This group of service providers is namely, from many points of view, more interesting to pursue, when it comes to illicit material posted on the internet, than the actual source of the content.

This thesis examines the Women in Water Diplomacy in the Nile-network by asking how the network constructs a feminist discourse on transboundary water governance in the Nile basin. Rooted in the theoretical fr
The role of empathy, the capacity to read someone else’s emotions, in the legal context has previously been studied in relation to primarily judges’ decision-making, often with a concern for objectivity. Our purpose is to study professional emotion management in the legal process through an analysis of Swedish prosecutors’ use of empathy. An ethnographic data collection took place between 2012 and
