This thesis orbits around the changes in the Swedish abortion laws during the last century, and the relation to religion. The aim is to make visible the values enshrined in the first abortion law, and those in the current abortion law, as the legislation made a volte-face in the 1970’s. Today, abortion is a right and the state is the duty-bearer. This construction collides with the conscience of r

The big influx of people seeking asylum in EU Member States in recent years has led to many asylum seekers having to wait a long time for a decision on their asylum applications.

The coast of Scania is vulnerable to disasters due to rising sea levels in combination with multiple communities along the coast. In the future, such disasters may become more frequent due to climate change and that may lead to predicted damages that are not covered by insurances. This increased risk of costs may lead to negative effects on the individual property owner and thereby also on the mun

With the development of extremely precise spectral filters based on spectral hole burning and slow light effects, the idea of their implementation in an Ultrasound Optical Tomography (UOT) medical imaging technique arose. Simulations have shown that the resulting Contrast-to-Noise (CNR) ratio is fairly good at depths up to 5 cm but decreases dramatically when probing deeper in tissue. One of the p

The availability of a “male network” of family members and/or friends may be decisive for the outcome of a woman’s asylum application. As it is recognised under the jurisprudence of ECtHR and Swedish asylum adjudicators that women, who originates from countries where societal structures maintain women’s reliance on men, are particularly vulnerable.

In mathematical education it is crucial to have a good teaching plan and to execute it correctly. In particular, this is true in the field of numerical analysis. Every teacher has a different style of teaching. This thesis studies how the basic material of a particular topic in numerical analysis was developed in four different textbooks. We compare and evaluate this process in order to achieve a

The discovery of pervasive transcription in eukaryotic organisms reveals that majority of promoters produce divergent non-coding transcripts besides their annotated transcripts. A recent study proposed the activation of divergent transcription by SWI/SNF chromatin remodelers. Mutating SNF5 subunit of the complex resulted in decreased levels of divergent transcription. Based on this finding, genomi

Detta arbete undersöker processrättens roll på det migrationsrättsliga området, så som den kommer till uttryck genom ett antal migrationsprocessrättsliga särdrag. Centralt för undersökningen är hur avvägningen mellan de motstående intressena individens rättssäkerhet och processuell effektivitet har gjorts i migrationsprocessen.

Upphandlingar avbryts frekvent och lämnar leverantörer med onödiga deltagandekostnader och förlorade chanser till kontrakt. Denna uppsats syftar till att klargöra rättsläget vad gäller möjligheten till upphandlingsrättsligt skadestånd vid felaktigt avbrutna upphandlingar.

Kommande framställning har till syfte att, med hjälp av den rättsdogmatiska metoden, redogöra för gällande rätt i fråga om umgänge mellan barn och förälder under tiden då barnet vårdas med stöd av LVU. LVU-vården av barnet ska präglas av närhet med föräldern och ska ha siktet inställt på återförening. Socialnämnden har ett långtgående ansvar för att sådan kontakt så långt som möjligt tillgodoses. The main aim of this thesis is to clarify current law regarding the contact between children and their parents after taken into care based on the Care of Young Persons’ Act (1990:52) – hereafter referred to as LVU. Taking into care of a child should normally be regarded as temporary and should be discontinued as soon as circumstances permit. Any measure of implementation of temporary care should b

Sedan de stora migrationsströmmarna nådde Sverige under sommaren 2015 har åter igen de migrationsrättsliga frågorna blivit aktuella. Till följd av detta har en rapport visat att migrationsverket hanterat asylansökningar på ett bristfälligt sätt. Bristerna har främst hänfört sig till frågor rörande rättssäkerhet. Utöver detta har ytterligare en aspekt uppmärksammats och det är den om rikets säkerheSince the major migration flows reached Sweden in the summer of 2015, have once again the immigration legal questions become the subject of public debate. As a result, a report showed that the Swedish Migration Agency handled asylum applications in a flawed manner. The flaws have mostly referred to the issues of the rule of law. In addition to this, a further aspect has also received attention and

Amelogenin is an enamel matrix protein which participates in the formation of dental enamel, the hardest tissue in the human body. The protein participates in this process by orienting the mineral crystals which make up the enamel and several proteolytic products from amelogenin also affect the dental enamel during its maturation. The protein is mostly hydrophobic with a hydrophilic region at the

Europeiska unionens 28 suveräna medlemsstater har egna lagar som reglerar asyl- och invandringsfrågor. Däremot har medlemsstaterna på grund av gemensamma utmaningar avseende genom tiden olika flyktingvågor insett behovet av en gemensam asylpolitik.

Ett väl fungerande skattesystem utgör basen för finansieringen av välfärdssystemet. Skatteflykt ger upphov till skattebaserosion, ett fenomen som ger upphov till stora kostnader, såväl för Sverige som för andra stater och försvårar finansieringen av välfärdssystemet. Generalklausuler utgör ett verktyg mot skatteflykt. I Sverige finns sedan många år tillbaka en generalklausul mot skatteflykt i skatThe basis for the funding of welfare systems is a well-functioning tax system. Tax base erosion, founded in tax avoidance, imposes significant costs for both Sweden and other countries and it risks obstructing the funding of the welfare system. General Anti-Avoidance Rules (GAARs) is an instrument for countering tax avoidance. For many years, Sweden has had a GAAR in the Swedish Anti-Avoidance Act
