It is frustrating for every reasonable human being to observe scenes of exploitation around the world in respect of children, because of their either naivety or vulnerability. It is unacceptable that still in the 21st century, children do not benefit from the protection, attention and love they deserve. An estimated 300 million children worldwide are subject to violence, exploitation and abuse inc
The number of situations where both people and nature are harmed by human activities are increasing in the same pace as mankind is augmenting its control and so called 'development' of the Earth. Although previously much debated, we have passed the stage when protecting human rights and preserving the environment were seen as conflicting interests. Instead we have reached the conclusion th
The purpose of this essay is to how internal armed conflict in Nepal affected children. Besides that how Nepal has implemented the UN Convention on the Rights of Child during the conflict. It has been estimated that over 2 million children have been killed in armed conflict, another 6 million have been rendered permanently disabled and more than 250, 000 children continue to be exploited as child
Internal armed conflicts are today the more common mode of warfare and a growing concern for the international community to address. In this, the difficulty of addressing non-State armed groups has grown in salience and importance. Non-State armed actors are held by the international community as responsible for their actions based on international humanitarian law. As such, if international human
If as Hersch Lauterpact stated in the most overly quoted Humanitarian Lawyers phrase in Oppenheim's International Law, International Humanitarian Law lies at the vanishing point of International Law, then I would posit that it is only the continuance of education particularly education in LOAC that prevents it from vanishing altogether. The preservation of the buildings housing that education

This thesis concerns the patentability of computer programs from a European perspective. The main purposes of the thesis are to investigate how computer programs are protected in Europe and how case law of the EPO has developed since 2005 when the proposal for a directive on the patentability of computer- implemented inventions (CIIs) was rejected. The thesis also briefly describes the major Europ
In the 1940s, Swedish Nobel laureate Gunnar Myrdal noted a disconnect between the American creed (liberty and justice for all, equality) and the status of African-Americans (marginalization, disenfranchisement, segregation). Decades later, a similar disconnect is currently reflected in Myrdal's Sweden. The state of health for ethnic and racial minority migrants clashes with Swedish policy dict
The European Union is developing a common asylum system. The goal is to create certain minimum standards regulating the reception and procedures regarding asylum seekers and refugees. The Dublin II Regulation is one of the legal instruments created in this process. It determines which state is responsible for any particular asylum seeker and for their asylum application.

The summary of the present master thesis can be outlined as the following: The international terrorism and the counter-terrorism have been one of the biggest issues and concerns of the international community over the last decades.

The European Union boasts free movement of workers as one of its fundamental freedoms for all citizens. However, this freedom does not exist free from controversy or challenging issues.

Despite the increasing significance of foreign investment in the global economy, the extent and intensity of regulation at the multilateral level is disproportionate as compared to that of international trade. Unlike the integrated system established under the World Trade Organization, the governance of international investment is highly fragmented, encompassing an amalgamation of customary intern

This thesis analyses the problem of the conflict between fundamental rights with special attention to the clash between freedom of expression and human dignity In my view the hate speech problem is a good example of this clash: the right to freedom of expression can be in conflict with other human rights, mainly with the right to human dignity. My question is: how should one solve this problem, or
