This essay seeks to establish a critical view of a phenomenon in dire need of additional scientific scrutiny, namely sadistic bestiality. Seemingly unexplainable acts of sadistic and sexual violence, targeting horses, have been reported and discussed in Swedish media. How does society construct a meaningful narrative from these crimes and their perpetrators? By looking at the Swedish equestrian sp

Vid skadeståndslagens tillkomst 1972 infördes ett lagstadgat principalansvar, en ansvarsgrund som tidigare endast haft stöd i rättspraxis och då varit kraftigt begränsad. Principalansvaret, som återfinns i 3 kap. 1 § SkL, innebär att arbetsgivare har ett skadeståndsrättsligt ansvar för skador dennes arbetstagare vållar annan i tjänsten. Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda omfattningen av principaWhen the Liability for Damages Act came into force in 1972, vicarious liability was laid down in law, a principle that previously had only been found in case law where it was severely restricted. Vicarious liability, which is found in chapter 3 § 1 in the Liability for Damages Act, means that an employer is liable for indemnity for damages that his or her employees have caused others during work.

Denna studie undersöker vad för motiv och synsätt det finns för att använda eller inte använda videomedierad kommunikation såsom videokonferenser och videochat och undersöker tanken att det kan ersätta resor. Vi har intervjuat 7 stycken anställda på 7 företag för att få fram hur videomedierad kommunikation används. Studien visar på att det varierar mycket mellan företag hur mycket videomedierad ko

Necessity is a justification rule in 24th chapter 4 § in the Swedish Penal Code (Sw. brottsbalken). The clause is applicable when a danger threatens life, health, property or another interest that is protected by the legal system. An act committed in an emergency is seen as a crime only if it, with regard to the nature of the danger, the damage that is caused and the other circumstances, is unjust

I Sverige har under de senaste åren ungefär 19 000 barn under 15 år årligen misstänkts för att ha begått ett brott. Det finns dock ingen bra samlad statistik då barn under 15 år inte kan lagföras för brottet. När ett barn misstänks för ett brott har polisen en anmälningsplikt till socialtjänsten. Om det begångna brottet har minst ett års fängelse i straffskalan eller om socialtjänsten begär det skDuring the last few years approximately 19 000 children below the age of 15 have been suspected for committing an offence. However there is no comprehensive statistics when children below the age of 15 cannot be charged for the offence. The police must report all children who are suspected for committing a crime to the local social services. If the minimum sentence for the committed crime is one y

A study was conducted to investigate the effects of competition on creativity in a Swedish context. Ninety-nine 5th grade children were divided into two groups and examined on the hypothesis that competition in one group would create an extrinsic constraint and therefore diminish the intrinsic motivation resulting in less creative outcome. Furthermore we hypothesized that the participants in the c

Root and butt rot in Norway spruce is costly for the forest industry and finding alternative noninvasive, efficient and cheap methods is thus of great interest. Detection of root and butt rot in Norway Spruce by analysis of an ultrasonic signal sent through standing trees could be a good alternative method. Data from Chirp-signals and sinus-waves, sent through both healthy and contaminated wood, h

"It´s difficult, there is a big grey zone”. A qualitative study of preschool teachers’ thoughts on the obligation to report There are several professionals in Sweden who are obligated by law to report when they suspect a possible case of a child being maltreated. The aim of this study was to capture preschool teachers’ thoughts on what that obligation means. How does it work in the field? D

The image of the priestess in Wicca, a duotheistic Pagan mystery and witchcraft tradition founded in the mid-20th century by British civil servant Gerald Gardner, has changed dramatically during the last few decades. Wiccans work together in autonomous groups, traditionally lead by a High Priestess and a High Priest. Gardner envisioned the ideal priestess as submissive, sweet and nurturing, more o

Supervisor: Annika Capélan-Köhler Assessor: Katarina Hollertz The aim of this study was to examine how adolescents interact around self-injury behaviour on the Internet. The empirical material is based on selected blogs and online communities, where

Syftet med studien var att jämföra två olika vittneskonfrontationsmetoder för öronvittnen; elimineringskonfrontation, som går ut på att eliminera de röster som låter minst lik målrösten tills det bara återstår en röst, samt sekventiell vittneskonfrontation där ett eventuellt utpekande görs direkt utan att eliminera några röster. Försökspersonerna testades i ett experiment som bestod av en instuder

Syftet med denna uppsats är att redogöra för annonseringsförfaranden i svensk och fransk upphandlingsreglering under tröskelvärdena och jämföra upphandlingsregleringarna med varandra utifrån dess materiella innehåll. Den mest framträdande likheten mellan den svenska och franska upphandlingsregleringen utgörs av att de grundar sig på EU-direktiv. Trots att den direkta effekten av ett direktiv inte The purpose of this thesis is to describe the Swedish and French national public procurement regulations concerning advertisement under threshold value and compare the procurement regulations under threshold value with one another from the basis of their material content. The most obvious resemblance between the Swedish and French procurement regulation is that they both are based on EU directives

In 1915 Maria Montessori and Anna Maccheroni built the first Children’s Chapel in Barcelona. Everything in the chapel was in the right size and height for a child. In this chapel the children learnt liturgy and prepeard themselves for the life in the Church through doing. In 2003 the first Swedish play church was built at Kastlösa Stiftsgård on the initiative of Karin Uddling. She had studied Mon

Grunden till ett skiljeförfarande är en överenskommelse mellan parterna om att hänskjuta tvister till skiljedomstol. Att parterna väljer detta kan bero på olika anledningar. De anledningar som brukar lyftas fram är att ett skiljeförfarande är snabbt, flexibelt, effektivt, neutralt, privat etc. Trots att parterna har varit överens om att hänskjuta tvister till skiljedomstol uppstår det inte sällan The foundation of arbitration is an agreement between the parties to arbitrate. There are various reasons why parties choose to use arbitration, but the most frequently cited reason is that arbitration is considered to be fast, flexible, efficient, neutral and private. Even though the parties have come to an agreement to use arbitration for their contractual relationship, at the beginning of an ar

Förvaltningsmyndigheter är en stor och olikartad grupp vilken bör särskiljas från samlingsbegreppet, och det i dagligt tal använda begreppet, myndighet. Detta har betydelse inte minst ur ett lagtekniskt perspektiv då förvaltningslagen (1986:223), FL, endast ska tillämpas av förvaltningsmyndigheter. Vilka myndigheter som omfattas är dock inte helt klart, då en tydlig definition saknas. Inför att Administrative authorities are a large and heterogeneous group which should be separated from what is referred to as public authorities. The Administrative Procedure Act is only applicable to administrative authorities. What public authorities that are included are not easy to determine as there is no clear definition. When an administrative authority is to make a decision that involves exercise
