Idag pågår en konflikt om området Nagorno-Karabach, med rötter i det tidiga 1900- talet, mellan armenier och azerier. Området är idag en självutnämnd republik utan internationellt erkännande. Konflikten präglas av att två folkrättsliga principer ställs emot varandra, principen om ett folks rätt till självbestämmande och principen om territoriell integritet, som respektive part i konflikten åberopaToday, a conflict is raging over the Nagorno-Karabakh area, with roots in the early 20th century, between Armenians and Azeris.

Governments around the world have begun to adopt measures in support of electric vehicles. The supply push policies have been traditionally studied leaving the demand side innovation policy without much investigation.

This will be investigated from a consumer perceived value perspective, with regard to the following aspects of value; social, economic, functional and affective. Methodology: An epistemological and ontological foundation guides the research approach of qualitative so

Tillämpningen av lagen (1991:572) om särskild utlänningskontroll har de senaste åren kraftigt ökat. Lagen avser kvalificerade säkerhetsärenden och möjliggör för Säkerhetspolisen att ta utländska medborgare som bedöms utgöra en fara för rikets säkerhet i förvar i avvaktan på att de utvisas. Eftersom utvisningarna sällan kan verkställas med anledning av risken för omänsklig behandling i mottagandelaThe application of the Act (1991:572) Concerning Special Controls in Respect of Aliens have had a major increase these last few years. The law refers to qualified security cases and enables the Security Police to take foreign citizens who are deemed to pose a danger to national security into custody pending their deportation. As the deportations can seldom be carried out due to the risk of inhuman

Cirka 3000 internationella investeringsavtal har ingåtts sedan 1960-talet för att främja och skydda gränsöverskridande investeringar över hela världen. Avtalen innehåller vanligtvis tvistlösningsmekanismen Investor-State Dispute Settlement (ISDS), som innebär att utländska investerare ges rätt att stämma värdstater inför en internationell skiljedomstol för åtgärder som potentiellt påverkar investeApproximately 3000 international investment agreements (IIAs), mostly bilateral investment treaties, have been designed since the 1960’s to promote and protect foreign investment across the world. In case of a dispute, the agreements provide for investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) in an arbitration tribunal. Investors have, however, been successful in extending arbitration to issues concernin

The purpose of this study is to look into how middle managers of Swedish LSS housing are balancing their responsibility to provide their clients with good living conditions and their responsibility to fulfill their employees’ right to a good working environment.

Luminiscensdatering är en väletablerad dateringsmetod inom geologisk och arkeologisk forskning. Dock är användandet av luminiscensdatering, mer specifikt optiskt stimulerad luminiscens (OSL), fortfarande underrepresenterat inom norsk arkeologi. Denna studie ämnar utreda lämpligheten av denna dateringsmetod som ett användbart alternativ för utgrävningar av Stenålderslokaler på den norska kusten. DeLuminescence dating is a well-established dating method within geological and archaeological research. However, the use of luminescence dating, and more specifically optically stimulated luminescence (OSL), is currently underutilised in Norwegian archaeology. This study set about determining the suitability of this dating method as a viable option for excavations of Norwegian coastal Stone Age sit

Offentlig upphandling pekas ut som ett riskområde för korruption. Likväl finns det begränsade möjligheter till personligt ansvarsutkrävande när en offentliganställd hos en upphandlande myndighet är korrupt. Det övergripande syftet med uppsatsen är att fördjupa förståelsen kring hur personligt ansvarsutkrävande regleras i svensk rätt och huruvida det gällande systemet är effektivt. Uppsatsens huvudPublic procurement is pointed out as a risk area for corruption. However, there are limited possibilities for demanding individual liability when a public employee is corrupted in a public procurement. The overall purpose of this thesis is to examine whether the current system for personal liability is effective in the sense that it is possible to demand legal liability. In addition, I am investig

Sammanfattning Den markant ökade användningen av krypterade kommunikationstjänster inom kriminella nätverk i syfte att planera och dölja kriminella förehavanden gäckade länge brottsbekämpande myndigheter både i Sverige och på kontinenten. Av naturliga skäl var det därför en stor framgång när franska myndigheter i nära samarbete med Eurojust och Europol lyckades knäcka den krypterade kommunikationsAbstract The distinct increase regarding use of encrypted communication within organised criminal networks in order to plan and conceal criminal activity eluded law enforcement authorities in Sweden as well as on the European continent for a long time. Therefore, for obvious reasons, it was considered a huge success when French authorities in close cooperation with Eurojust and Europol were able t

Purpose: As greenwashing becomes an increasingly prevalent concern in the sustainability industry, the pressure of organizations to be perceived as credible is rising.

The seller in c.i.f. contract performs his obligation by tender the proper documents i.e. a bill of lading, a p

The purpose of this new order class is to serve customers that require short lead-times and a high level of re

Samhället genomgick under 1900-talet stora förändringar. Välfärdsstatens socialpolitiska reformer gjorde att familjens roll förändrades – allt fler av de funktioner som tidigare var förbehållna familjen kom nu att övertas av samhället. Kvinnans ekonomiska självständighet och jämställdhet med mannen stärktes. Kvinnor blev också i allt större utsträckning verksamma på arbetsmarknaden. SkilsmässotaleThe society has experienced major changes in the 20th century. The social politics of the Swedish welfare state has impacted the family role.

För att garantera en rättssäker brottmålsprocess är det av stor betydelse att den misstänkte får insyn i det material som innehas av polisen och åklagaren. Utan insyn i utredningsmaterialet skulle det starkt begränsa den misstänktes möjligheter att försvara sig på ett fullgott sätt och att kontrollera åklagarens och domstolens bedömning. Den misstänktes rätt till insyn är emellertid inte absolut oIn order to guarantee that the criminal proceedings are in compliance with the rule of law, it is of great importance that the suspect has access to the materials held by the police and the prosecutor. Without such access, it would severely limit the suspect’s access to adequate facilities for the preparation of his defence and ability to verify the prosecutor’s and the court’s assessment. However

”Den som sa det han var det”. Ett klassiskt svenskt ordspråk företrädelsevis populärt bland barn att dra till med när argumentationen tagit slut i en hetsig diskussion. Men också en ypperlig titel på denna uppsats då den ger uttryck för en mycket vanlig uppfattning; den som erkänner brott måste också vara skyldig till detsamma. I Rättegångsbalken stadgas det att ett erkännande i brottmål endast tj"Den som sa det han var det." A classic Swedish saying, especially popular amongst children when found themselves run out of arguments in a heated discussion. But also an excellent title for this paper as it reflects a very common belief; the one who confesses a crime must also be guilty of the same.

With the technological development, nowadays, people do not need actual locations to meet for being friends because multiple blooming social networks allow people to stay connected 24/7 no matter where they are in this world. This technological development has many positive ef

Background: The ability to quickly provide parts for the supply of advanced technical systems in equipment-intensive industries (such as airlines and nuclear power plants) is critical to the systems overall performance. In order to maintain a targeted system availability large quantities of spare parts are often required which in turn results in excessive inventory costs. Seeing as inventory syste
