The concept of exploitation and potentially exploitative real-world practices are the subject of increasing philosophical attention. However, while philosophers have extensively debated what exploitation is and what makes it wrong, they have said surprisingly little about what might be required to remediate it. By asking how the consequences of exploitation should be addressed, this article seeks

Early empirical studies in labour and urban economics addressing the role of commuting (on, e.g., wages and locational choice) have typically been confined to the use of survey data. Researchers are, however, increasingly getting access to large register databases with detailed information on where individuals live and work. A variety of methods have thus emerged to exploit the geocoded characteri

This article sketches an analytical framework connecting the literature on conflict transformation with understandings of the role of history and agency in conflicted societies. By focusing on the dissemination of different historical narratives, emphasis falls on endogenous processes and the interaction between inside actors to conflicts.

Sammanfattning Det civilrättsliga förbudet mot etnisk diskriminering i arbetslivet som har funnits sedan 1994 har resulterat i få fällande domar och har i tidigare forskning beskrivits som ineffektivt. Jag har i denna uppsats jämfört tillämpningen av diskrimineringsförbudet i arbetslivet med andra områden för att undersöka om det finns faktorer som påverkar effektiviteten inom arbetslivsområdet. Summary In 1994, Sweden passed a law prohibiting discrimination in work life on the basis of ethnicity. This Discrimination Act has led to few convictions and has been described by scholars as inefficient. This thesis analyses the courts’ enforcement of the prohibition of discrimination in working life compared to its enforcement in other areas of society. Critical Race Theory is used to problem

The topic that this thesis aims to investigate is that of the intersection of intellectual property rights (more specifically copyright) and EU competition law. The research is carried out with the purpose of exploring the following two questions; namely to what extent the interest of further competition is reflected internally within the scope of copyright protection, as well as, under what condi

Efter det att ett offentligt uppköpserbjudande lämnats och accepterats av ägarna till över 90 % av aktierna (men inte samtliga) uppstår ett berättigat intresse för budgivaren att ta över resterande aktier. Syftet är ofta att effektivisera bolagsstyrningen, exempelvis att möjliggöra hållandet av en per capsulam-stämma istället för en administrativt betungande ordinarie stämma. Den kvarvarande minorFollowing a public takeover bid that has been accepted by more than 90% of the shareholders (though not all), the bidder acquires a legitimate interest in gaining full control of the target company. This is often motivated by a desire to streamline corporate governance and, for example, avoid the administrative burden of summoning a remaining minority to general meetings. However, the minority may

Som en följd av klimatförändringarna förväntas den globala havsnivåhöjningen att stiga avsevärt under de kommande åren, vilket medför potentiellt katastrofala hot mot kuststater. Detta väcker kritiska frågor inom folkrätt, inklusive den om den potentiella förlusten av maritima zoner och tillhörande rättigheter för kuststater. Enligt FN:s havsrättskonvention (UNCLOS) mäts havszonernas yttergränser As a consequence of climate change, global sea-level rise is expected to increase significantly in the coming years, posing potentially catastrophic threats to coastal states. This raises critical questions in international law, including that of the potential loss of maritime zones and associated entitlements for coastal states. Under the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), the seaward

Ett område som på senare tid varit föremål för många diskussioner både inom svensk och europeisk varumärkesrätt är användandet av annans varumärke. Diskussionen har kretsat kring en utvidgning av ensamrätten genom en så kallad "ny varumärkesanvändning" och EU-domstolens erkännande av allt fler varumärkesrättsliga funktioner. Uppsatsen fokuserar på användningen av annans varumärke av egnOne area that has recently been subject of many discussions both in Swedish and European trade mark law is the use of another's trade mark. The discussion has revolved around an extension of the exclusive right by a so called "new trade mark usage" and the CJEU's recognition of the increasing number of functions of a trade mark. The essay focuses on the use of another's trade

The study is based on a consociational theoretical framewo
