Hur gör privat och offentlig sektor för att attrahera rätt talanger?

Forskningsområdet kring employer branding har vuxit till ett nyckelområde inom strategisk kommunikation. Forskningen har varit otillräcklig när det gäller att studera det praktiska arbetet med employer branding i relation till offentlig och privat sektor.

Konsten att konstruera ett ursprung

I dagens globaliserade värld kan en dissonans uppstå i konsumentens uppfattning av multinat-ionella varumärken när varumärkena upplevs härröra ur flera nationella ursprung som står för olika marknadskommunikativa värden. Denna studie ämnar undersöka hur denna dissonans kan överbryggas genom användandet av myter i varumärkens marknadskommunikation gentemot den gestaltade befolkningen.

The competition policy is an area of law that moulds itself according to the structure of the society and evolves by habitually adjusting to the dynamics of the national economies.

Varumärkets mening: den offentliga organisationens vision och värden ur medarbetarens perspektiv

Ett framgångsrikt varumärkesarbete förutsätter att medarbetaren förstår och uttrycker organisationens vision och värden, samtidigt är medarbetaren åsidosatt inom forskningsfältet varumärkeskommunikation. Den här studien lyfter därför fram medarbetarens perspektiv i den komplexa offentliga organisationens varumärkesarbete. Syftet är att genom kvalitativa intervjuer skapa en djupare förståelse för mAlthough successful branding requires that co-workers comprehend and express the vision and core values of the organization, the co-worker is neglected during the brand research phase.

Skadeståndsansvar för medverkan till avtalsbrott: En komparativ studie av svensk och engelsk rätt

I engelsk rätt introducerades ett skadeståndsansvar för medverkan till avtalsbrott (eng. inducement of breach of contract) redan i mitten på 1800-talet genom rättsfallet Lumley v Gye. I svensk rätt å andra sidan hade ett sådant ansvar fram till relativt nyligen enbart ett väldigt begränsat stöd i rättskällorna. Situationen förändrades dock genom Högsta domstolens avgörande i det så kallad HamburgaTort liability for inducement of breach of contract was introduced to English law already in the mid-1800s, through the case of Lumely v Gye. In Swedish law, however, there were until quite recently only very limited legal support for such a liability. But that changed in 2005 when the Supreme Court of Sweden pronounced its decision in NJA 2005 s. 608. This essay describes the conditions under whi

När musiken tystnar – en analys av bestämmelserna om de kollektiva förvaltningsorganisationernas avdrag från rättighetsintäkter för sociala-, kulturella- och utbildningsändamål

I och med införandet av Sällskapsdirektivet (2014/26/EU) lyckades EU:s arbete med att harmonisera området för kollektiv rättighetsförvaltning. Den nya digitala miljön hade skapat ett större behov för EU att reglera området och bidra till att alla medlemsstater utgår från samma regler. Tidigare hade organisationernas förvaltning sett annorlunda ut eftersom det saknades en harmoniserad reglering. DiWith the introduction of the Collective Rights Management Directive (2014/26/EU), the EU's efforts to harmonize the area of collective rights management succeeded. The new digital environment had created a greater need for the EU to regulate the area and to contribute to all Member States based on the same rules. In the past, the management of the organizations had looked different because the

Medverkansansvarets utvecklingstendenser – om utvidgat gärningsmannaskap och gränsdragningen mellan (med)gärningsmannaskap och medhjälp i svensk rätt

Medverkansansvar inträder när flera personer tillsammans utför otillåtna gärningar. Rättsläget är i stora delar oreglerat, men hänförs till 23 kap. 4 § Brottsbalken (BrB). Om alla personer agerar tillsammans och i samförstånd och utför lika stora delar av gärningen döms de alla som medgärningsmän. Den som inte är gärningsman, men ändå främjat brottet, bedöms som anstiftare eller medhjälpare. GenomThe legal structure of Swedish criminal law when a group of people commits unlawful acts (responsibility for complicity) is largely unregulated but is based in section 4, chapter 24 of the Swedish Penal Code. If these persons perform equal actions in the act and act together and in consensus, they are all liable as co-perpetrators. A person who is less involved, but who has promoted the act, can b
