Under hösten 2017 påbörjades #metoo-rörelsen av kvinnor som en reaktion på deras utsatthet för mäns våld. Efter att flera kvinnor i Sverige på sociala medier pekat ut män som utsatt dem för sexualbrott har de blivit åtalade och dömda för förtal. De fällande domarna har legat till grund för debatt och förtalsbestämmelsen har diskuterats i både doktrin och media. Med #metoo-rörelsens ursprung som teDuring the fall of 2017, the #metoo movement was started by women, as a reaction to the male violence they suffer. After several Swedish women named their perpetrators on social media, they were prosecuted and convicted of slander.

Hedersrelaterat våld och förtryck har fått stor uppmärksamhet i samhällsdebat-ten under 2000-talet. Den ökade uppmärksamheten har resulterat i en rad åt-gärder från staten, däribland kriminaliseringar. För att en ny kriminalisering ska vidtas behöver den kunna rättfärdigas. I statliga utredningar och doktrin framförs kriterier och principer som bör vara uppfyllda för att en kriminali-sering ska vaHonor-related violence and oppression has received a lot of attention in Swe-den during the 2000s. The increased attention has resulted in a number of measures from the state, including criminalization. A new criminalization must be justified in order to be established.

Avtalsfrihet och pacta sunt servanda är två grundläggande principer inom svensk avtalsrätt och ligger som grund för synen på avtalet. Ett avtal är en rättshandling, vilket definieras som en handling vars syfte är att ”grundlägga, förändra eller upphäva ett rättsförhållande”. Att ett rättssubjekt kan ändra sina rättsförhållande genom att företa eller mottaga rättshandlingar följer av allmänna princThe aim for this thesis is to investigate how passivity in a contractual relationship can affect the agreement between two parties. Under what circumstances can the behavior of a party change the agreed terms and how can these terms be changed if a party is passive regarding its legitimate claims.

The “territorial peace” runs as a buzzword around Colombian peacebuilding. A so-called territorial approach was adopted in the beginning of the Havana Peace Talks, as a means of creating locally based, differentiated modes of peacebuilding, and addressing the structural neglect of Colombia’s diverse rural areas. This study highlights the experiences of Colombian indigenous peoples in the context o

Radicalization is a debated concept and should a consensus arrive on its meaning, the ambiguity of the process would most likely remain. This research paper does not side with any model of radicalization but instead chooses to focus on one concept present in much of this research, namely grievance. Through the horizontal inequality thesis, grievance is operationalized as an inequality pertaining t

Nonviolent action is a historically pervasive, yet misunderstood phenomenon. Despite its success stories, of which Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr. remain the most famous examples, nonviolent action has been overlooked in literature, especially by peace and conflict scholars. Adopting Vinthagen’s novel theoretical framework on the case of nonviolent action in South Sudan, this paper aims at contr
