I det svenska straffrättssystemet är skuld en fundamental förutsättning för att straffrättsligt ansvar ska kunna utkrävas. Skuld utgör ramen för vilka handlingar som är klandervärda och vilka handlingar som är ursäktliga. Det krävs enligt huvudregeln någon form av uppsåt för att skuld ska kunna anses föreligga, undantagsvis kan vissa brott begås genom oaktsamhet, medveten eller omedveten. Ett exemIn the Swedish criminal justice system, guilt is a necessary and fundamental precondition for criminal liability to be claimed. Guilt constitutes the outer frame for which actions are reprehensible and which actions are excusable. As a main principle, some form of intent is required to ascertain the existence of guilt, although some crimes can be committed through negligence or recklessness. An ex

Rwanda has experienced an increase in the frequency of riverine floods since the mid 2000s, and the future impact of climate change on the hydrological cycle is uncertain. Flood hazard analysis is one tool used to reduce flood risks; the analysis is often based on models which requires hydrological and meteorological data. New hydrological measurement stations have been installed at select locatio

Den argumentation Europadomstolen för vid sitt beslutsfattande granskas i arbetet.

France legalised same-sex marriage (mariage pour tous) in 2013. In theory, it also allows a recognition of gay and lesbian families, as the social parents can now adopt their spouses children, thus becoming themselves official parents. However, same-sex families existed prior to that law. Through interviews with French gay and lesbian parents, I focus on two aspects of their family life: the way t

One possible symptom of deficiency of folic acid (folate) or vitamin B 12 (cobalamin) is impaired cognition. Status of these two B-vitamins have been linked to cognitive performance also in various populations of subjects with no evident clinical deficiency (for example in "healthy elderly"). The present study investigated 60 nondemented patients (mean age 58 years) presented with mild c

Many modern psychological theories still assume that humans know about themselves to a wide and accurate extent, in line with the early classical cognitive frameworks. Other competing frameworks, such as dynamic cognition, propose that intelligent behavior can arise from an interaction between the brain, body, and environment, without the need of manipulating explicitly represented knowledge-state

Mäns våld mot kvinnor är ett omfattande samhällsproblem. En aspekt av detta problem som inte har uppmärksammats i samma utsträckning är att barn ofta bevittnar våldet, eftersom att det vanligtvis sker i hemmet. Det är svårt att fastställa hur många barn som bevittnar våld mot närstående, men studier visar att ungefär 100 000–200 000 barn i Sverige är drabbade. Denna framställning syftar till att, One of the most relevant and major issues in todays’ society is men’s violence against women. Another issue in relation to domestic violence, which has not been addressed to the same extent, is that children often witness this violence since it usually takes place at home. It is difficult to estimate how many children witness domestic violence, but studies show that approximately 100,000 - 200,000

Matsvinn är ett enormt miljömässigt, socialt och ekonomiskt problem. För att förebygga matsvinn har EU och FN uppmuntrat matvaruaffärer att donera ätbara livsmedel, som de av någon anledning inte vill sälja, istället för att slänga dem. Livsmedelslagstiftningen ställer dock till med problem. Särskilt den otydliga regleringen på området, ansvarsregler och skattebestämmelser avskräcker företag fråFood waste is a significant environmental, social and economic problem. In order to prevent food waste, both the EU and UN have encouraged grocery stores to donate rather than waste edible foodstuffs that are unable to be sold. However, the foodstuff legislation causes problems. Especially the ambiguous regulations, liability legislation and tax legislation discourage companies from donating foo

The regulation of the European parliament and the Council (EG) nr. 864/2007 on the law applicable to non-contractual obligations is known as Rome II. Rome II contains a conflict rule in art. 7 which determines the law applicable to a claim involving environmental damages connected with more than one state. This conflict rule does not only apply to cases of damage to property and persons, but also

Three regimes have been chosen for the investigation - the hazardous waste regime, the global biodiversity regime, and the climate change regime. The author focuses on the international work and negotiations on the conventions, which comprise the foundation for the respectively regime, i.e. the Convention on the Control

The strive for international justice have existed for a very long time. We have seen attempts been made to achieve this goal by for example the creations of the Tribunals for former Yugoslavia and Rwanda. The idea has been to prosecute and hold war criminals responsible for their actions. The most recent attempt to establish an international legal system was first made in 1989, when the process of

The city of Helsingborg in southern Sweden has long been divided by its residents between North and South – first because of economic development, and later due to immigration. The City Planning Department hopes to address this division as part of an ambitious 25-year urban development project in the industrial harbour which borders the two central, divided districts of the city – Centrum and Söde

Today Norway possesses world leadership within salmon-farming. Although strongest in this field, Norwegian aquaculture faces certain challenges in relation to salmon and trout cultivation processes. The problem of sea lice, a parasitic disease affecting salmonids, poses significant concerns to fish producers. The question is whether this disease is able to undermine competitive advantage of Norweg

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: När Sveriges Geologiska Undersökning (SGU) karterade nordöstra Skåne påträffades dels kalksediment i ett annars gnejsdominerat område, dels ett gyttjeliknande manganförande material i en husbehovstäkt i Broestorp, 2 km SSV om Sibbhult, NO Skåne. Syftet med min undersökning var att dokumentera och bestämma bildningen för moränskärningarna i täkten, utbredningen a

Under lång tid fanns inte någon specialreglering i svensk rätt gällande skadeståndsansvaret vid dammhaverier. I juli 1997 infördes en lag som förändrade detta och pekade ut ansvarssubjekt med ett rent strikt ansvar. Den underhållsskyldige för en dammanläggning innehar ett strikt ansvar för de skador som uppstår nedströms till följd av ett dammhaveri enligt 11 kap. 18 § miljöbalken. UnderhållsskylFor a long time, there was no regulation of the indemnity liability for dam failures in Sweden. In July 1997 a new law brought a change to this and clarified which liable entity was strictly liable for damages. The entity responsible for maintaining the dam bears a strict liability for all damages arising downstream as a consequence of a dam failure according to chapter 11 paragraph 18 in the Swe

When birds move around in their natural environment the feathers on the wings are exposed to various factors that reduce their performance, such as UV-radiation, mechanical wearing and bacteria. In time the feathers get worn out and are replaced. This usually happens once a year by a process called moult. Some bird species differs from this pattern and moult twice a year. This behavior may have infl

The purpose of this project was to create a risk model for extended time between major overhauls on steam turbines. The project was created by Siemens Industrial Turbomachinery who develops and manufactures steam turbines and performs maintenance. It is the turbine users who have requested a longer time in order to reduce maintenance costs and increase availability. Prior to the work, external and
