Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka och försöka fastställa var den nedre gränsen går för när medhjälp till brott kan medföra straffrättsligt ansvar. Medverkansansvaret är stadgat i 23 kap. 4 § BrB och omfattar alla former av deltagande i brott. Enligt bestämmelsen fodras för straffrättsligt ansvar att den medverkande har främjat gärningen med råd eller dåd; medverkan kan således vara både fyThe purpose of this essay is to examine when complicity in crime and specifically aiding as defined in the Swedish Penal Code can be taken into consideration, also to analyse the dividing line between criminal and non-criminal participation. The theoretical approach has been to look into whether the principle of legality can be considered satisfied, and especially whether chapter 23, section 4 o

När domstolar beslutar om vilket straff en gärningsman ska få för ett visst brott måste de först bedöma brottets straffvärde. En grundläggande ideologi i det svenska straffsystemet är att straffet ska stå i proportion till brottets svårighetsgrad. Vid beaktandet av straffvärdet ska rättstillämparna enligt 29 kap. 1 § BrB bland annat ta hänsyn till den skada, kränkning eller fara som gärningen inneWhen a court decides on what punishment an offender should acquire for a certain crime they must first assess the penal value of the crime. In Swedish penal law a basic ideology is that the punishment should be proportionate to the penal value of the crime. While assessing the penal value the court must consider the damage, wrong or danger occasioned by the criminal act. Through case law regarding

This essay seeks to establish a critical view of a phenomenon in dire need of additional scientific scrutiny, namely sadistic bestiality. Seemingly unexplainable acts of sadistic and sexual violence, targeting horses, have been reported and discussed in Swedish media. How does society construct a meaningful narrative from these crimes and their perpetrators? By looking at the Swedish equestrian sp

Vid skadeståndslagens tillkomst 1972 infördes ett lagstadgat principalansvar, en ansvarsgrund som tidigare endast haft stöd i rättspraxis och då varit kraftigt begränsad. Principalansvaret, som återfinns i 3 kap. 1 § SkL, innebär att arbetsgivare har ett skadeståndsrättsligt ansvar för skador dennes arbetstagare vållar annan i tjänsten. Denna uppsats syftar till att utreda omfattningen av principaWhen the Liability for Damages Act came into force in 1972, vicarious liability was laid down in law, a principle that previously had only been found in case law where it was severely restricted. Vicarious liability, which is found in chapter 3 § 1 in the Liability for Damages Act, means that an employer is liable for indemnity for damages that his or her employees have caused others during work.

I Sverige har under de senaste åren ungefär 19 000 barn under 15 år årligen misstänkts för att ha begått ett brott. Det finns dock ingen bra samlad statistik då barn under 15 år inte kan lagföras för brottet. När ett barn misstänks för ett brott har polisen en anmälningsplikt till socialtjänsten. Om det begångna brottet har minst ett års fängelse i straffskalan eller om socialtjänsten begär det skDuring the last few years approximately 19 000 children below the age of 15 have been suspected for committing an offence. However there is no comprehensive statistics when children below the age of 15 cannot be charged for the offence. The police must report all children who are suspected for committing a crime to the local social services. If the minimum sentence for the committed crime is one y

A study was conducted to investigate the effects of competition on creativity in a Swedish context. Ninety-nine 5th grade children were divided into two groups and examined on the hypothesis that competition in one group would create an extrinsic constraint and therefore diminish the intrinsic motivation resulting in less creative outcome. Furthermore we hypothesized that the participants in the c

Root and butt rot in Norway spruce is costly for the forest industry and finding alternative noninvasive, efficient and cheap methods is thus of great interest. Detection of root and butt rot in Norway Spruce by analysis of an ultrasonic signal sent through standing trees could be a good alternative method. Data from Chirp-signals and sinus-waves, sent through both healthy and contaminated wood, h
