Användningen av riktade sanktioner mot fysiska och juridiska personer har ökat dramatiskt under de senaste årtiondena. Åtgärder som frysning av tillgångar och reseförbud har ersatt traditionella handelsembargon och blivit bland de vanligaste utrikes- och säkerhetspolitiska verktygen i internationella organisationer som EU och FN. Riktade sanktioner har dock fått utstå betydande kritik från ett mThe use of targeted sanctions against individuals and legal entities has rapidly increased during the last decades. Measures, such as freezing of assets and travel bans, have replaced comprehensive trade embargos and are now among the most frequently used foreign policy tools of international organisations like the European Union (EU) and the United Nations (UN). However, the use of targeted sanc

Gender-based violence survivors have barriers to access to justice around the globe. However, States are responsible for removing those barriers and ensuring that everyone can access needed services and justice without discrimination regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, race, nationality, disability, or age. Turkey is no exception with its international commitments and domestic laws to

This master’s thesis presents a review of high school girls’ experiences of how information seeking concerning sexuality is handled and given space in the school library. In Swedish high schools, sex education is integrated into a number of subject areas rather than taught as an independent subject. This is reflected in school libraries’ collections, which often prioritize subjects that are stated

Migration har länge förekommit och anledningarna till förflyttningen kan variera. En grupp av människor som nyligen fått ökad uppmärksamhet är så kallade ”klimatflyktingar”. Termen grundar sig i att dessa människor flytt undan klimatförändringarnas effekter. Vi människor är en stor bidragande faktor till klimatförändringarna, främsta orsaken är koldioxidutsläpp. Klimatförändringarna väntas få flerDuring many years, migration has been a part of people’s life and the reasons for migration have varied. One group of migrants that has become larger in recent years is the “climate refugees”. This concept has its foundation in the fact that these humans are forced to flee from the effects of climate changes. Humans are a big contributing factor to climate changes, mostly due to the large amount o

In recent years, technological developments have been the focal point of the discussion in the shipping industry. The two main topics have been a general discussion on IT security and a discussion about autonomous ships. Concerning IT security, the discussion has been focused on the industry's knowledge in the field and preparedness for any attacks or mishaps that can affect companies that ar

Denna uppsats tar sin utgångspunkt i säkerhetsrådets paralys till följd av vetorätten i relation till Rysslands invasion av Ukraina 2022. På flera håll i den internationella debatten hörs kritiska röster angående säkerhetsrådets, och därmed i praktiken hela FN:s, passivitet till följd av säkerhetsrådet oförmåga att agera i enlighet med sin befogenhet enligt framför allt FN-stadgans kapitel sju. The background and the main question of this essay derives from the paraly-sis of the Security Council as a result of the use of the veto in relation to the Russian invasion of Ukraine in 2022. In the international discussion, critical voices have been raised against the Security Council's and thus the entire UN's inefficacy following the Security Council’s inability to act in accordance w

Förevarande framställning syftar till att analysera skyddet för efterlevande make i relation till arvsrätten för den avlidnes släktarvingar, och i synnerhet dennes bröstarvingar. Utgångspunkten är Anna Christensens teori om de normativa grundmönstren. Arbetet behandlar rättsutvecklingen under 1900-talet och såväl det arvsrättsliga som det äktenskapsrättsliga regelverket diskuteras. Den svenska äThe aim of this thesis is to analyse the protection of the surviving spouse in relation to the right of the deceased's natural heirs’, in particular his or her legal heirs’. The starting point is Anna Christensen's Theory of Normative Patterns. The thesis deals with the legal development during the 20th century and both the Swedish law of succession and the marital legal framework are disc

Ett av aktiebolagets mest karaktäristiska drag är att aktieägarna inte svarar personligen för bolagets förpliktelser. För att balansera avsaknaden av personligt betalningsansvar innehåller ABL, vid sidan av den lagstadgade revisionen, ett antal specialbestämmelser som föreskriver att vissa åtgärder skall granskas av en kvalificerad revisor. I samband med denna granskning skall revisorn upprätta säOne of the most characteristic features of a limited liability company (Sw: aktiebolag) is that shareholders are not personally liable for the company’s obligations. In order to balance the lack of personal liability, the Swedish Companies Act (Sw. aktiebolagslag) contains, alongside the statutory audit, a number of special regulations, which require a qualified auditor to review some specific cir

En person som blivit så svårt skuldsatt att vederbörande inte kan antas bli fri från sina skulder inom en överskådlig tid kan i Sverige ansöka om skuldsanering hos Kronofogdemyndigheten (KFM). Om en skuldsanering beviljas innebär detta att gäldenären helt eller delvis befrias från ansvaret att betala sina skulder. För att överhuvudtaget kunna bli föremål för skuldsanering krävs dock bland annat atIn Sweden a person who has become so ensnared in debt that he cannot reasonably be presumed to be able to extricate himself from the debts within a foreseeable future, can turn to the public enforcement authority Kronofogdemyndigheten (KFM) and apply for debt relief. If debt relief is granted, the debtor will be entirely or partly released from his obligation to pay the debts. In order to be eligi

The increased number of companies supplying knowledge intensive business services (KIBS) has caused a highly competitive market during the recent decade, where actors on the market struggle to gain competitive advantage and especially vulnerable are companies that offer engineering services. Underlying factors for the difficulties to provide competitive services on the market for engineering servi

The background to Public Procurement of Innovation (PPI) is a Procuring Agency’s active promotion of innovative solutions. PPI consists of the following parts: The Agency firstly formulates a need for an innovative solution to a certain problem. The agency then develops the innovative idea through a structured development process and, lastly, purchases the developed solution in order to both meet

Hållbar utveckling är ett begrepp som fått ökat genomslag i ljuset av den pågående globaliseringen. Även om det finns flera definitioner till begreppet så innebär hållbar utveckling i sak en strävan efter en varaktig och långsiktig ekonomiskt tillväxt utan att för den sakens skull försaka sociala resurser eller skada naturens ekosystem. Då en allmän uppfattning av globaliseringen är att den bidrarThe notion of sustainable development has gained increased interest due to the on-going process of globalisation. Sustainable development as a concept refers to lasting economic growth that does not deplete social resources or harm ecosystems. As there is a general perception that globalisation brings markets and society ever so close to each other, demands are being raised to hold market actors –

Biotechnology company Medetect AB has developed a technology for staining of multiple cell types in the same tissue sample enabling positioning of cells as well as giving a way to distinguish between cell types. With new methods of visualising human tissue at a cellular level, comes a need to analyse this data. In this thesis, we therefore investigate some new methods, spectral non-parametric as w

The focus of this work is to investigate and apply the remote sensing method of object-based image analysis (OBIA) for vegetation classification of a permafrost underlain peatland in sub-arctic Sweden, by using aerial imagery of high resolution. Since the northern landscapes are an important source of naturally stored CH4 and CO2, their contribution to the global carbon cycle is a focus in researc

BACKGROUND: Within work sociology, several studies have addressed construction workers' practices of masculinity, class, economy, safety risks and production. However, few studies have investigated room for agency in relation to bodily pain or musculoskeletal disorders and even fewer have made a quantitative approach. Accordingly, by means of a questionnaire, we examined the association between co

Optionsavtal om överlåtelse av fast egendom är sedan lång tid tillbaka ogil-tiga i svensk rätt. Ett optionsavtal är ett avtal om framtida överlåtelse. Det finns inget direkt lagstöd som förbjuder sådana avtal för fastigheter, men HD har i en rad rättsfall etablerat en praxis där avtalen inte tillmäts giltighet. Annorlunda är det för optionsavtal för bostadsrätter. Trots liknande form-krav, och utaOption agreements on property purchases have for a long time been invalid in Swedish law. An option agreements is an agreement on a future purchase. There is no direct legal support that invalidates such contracts, but the swe-dish supreme court (HD) has established such a practice in a number of legal cases. It is however different for such agreements for condominiums. Despite similar form requir

This thesis examines an unconventional issue of human trafficking, which has arisen very recently in the Southeast Asia region. An increasing number of scam centres have been identified, wherein trafficking victims were recruited to operate online fraudulent schemes. This emerging trafficking phenomenon exhibits distinctive characteristics compared to the traditional one, including the flow of mig

Denna studie syftar till att fastställa det normala inflödet av extraterrestrisk kromit till jorden. Resultaten från undersökningen jämförs med tidigare studier av mellanordovicisk orthoceratitkalksten, i vilken 1 - 3 extraterrestriska kromitkorn ( >63 ƒÊm ) påträffats per kilogram kalksten. Dessa halter har tolkats som bevis på ett hundrafalt ökat inflöde av utomjordiskt material till jorden undeThis study aims to assess the normal inflow of extraterrestrial chromite to Earth. The results from the investigation are compared to earlier studies of middle Ordovician Orthoceratite Limestone in which 1 - 3 extraterrestrial chromite grains ( >63 ƒÊm ) per kilogram limestone were found. These values have been interpreted as evidence of a two orders of magnitude increase in the flux of extraterre

Rwanda is endeavouring to deal with its evil past of internal war and genocide to enable a peaceful future. Conflicts between Tutsis and Hutus dominate the Rwandan history. An estimated one million persons were massacred during the 1994 genocide directed against Tutsis and moderate Hutus. Those who survived suffer from physical and psychological wounds. This is equally true for the survivors of wa
