Skatterätt är ett område som ständigt förändras och påverkas av politiska beslut. Frågan är hur stort utrymme lagstiftaren har när det kommer till att använda den skatterättsliga lagstiftningen för att uppnå politiska mål. Uppsatsen syftar därför till att utreda lagstiftarens utrymme, vilket exemplifieras genom att studera värnskatten.

Städer ger upphov till klimatpåverkan både i uppförandet och användningen av bebyggelsen.

Stereotypforskning har använt olika metoder för att mäta stereotypinnehåll. En teori som gör det är Stereotype Content Model (SCM) där stereotypinnehåll mäts enligt dimensionerna kompetens och värme (Fiske et al., 2002) eller dess paralleller agens och kommunalitet (Abele et al., 2016). För att få fram sanna mätningar av stereotypinnehåll, och undvika påverkan av social önskvärdhet, ombeds deltagaStereotype research has previously employed different techniques of measuring stereotype content. One such theory is the Stereotype Content Model (SCM) in which content is measured along the dimensions of competence and warmth (Fiske et al., 2002) or the parallels agency and communion (Abele et al., 2016).
