After have been a type of fund which historically only has been open to institutional investors and wealthy individuals, the funds have in the past years started to open up for the general public. Despite the fact that hedge funds are subject to enormous media coverage, the Swedish public tends
The national courts of the Member States in the European Community are obliged to apply the Community law when it is relevant to the case before them. This obligation arises out of the co-operation principle laid down in Article 5 of the EC Treaty. When a national court is to apply a Community provision, and finds itself in doubt about how the provision is to be interpreted, or applied, that court
Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Det finns en rad lagar och bestämmelser som syftar till att skydda grundvatten mot föroreningar. Bland annat upprättar man i anslutning till vattentäkter skyddsområden där vissa typer av verksamhet inte får förekomma. Grundvattnet har också ett naturligt skydd mot föroreningar som är beroende av markens egenskaper. Föroreningar kan läggas fast eller brytas ned iNatural groundwater protection is favoured by a high content of clay and carbon in the soils, a large unsaturated zone and intermediate values of pH. The protection of the groundwater is improved by defining a protection area around waterworks. Within such areas certain activities that can threaten the quality of the water are limited by law. The borders for the water protection area shall be base
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det har diskuterats huruvida mäns spermiekoncentration minskat och missbildningar i pojkars könsorgan ökat under den senare delen av 1900-talet. Med säkerhet har dock testikelcancer ökat flerfaldigt under samma tidsperiod. Målet med denna avhandling var dels att undersöka huruvida skånska mäns spermakvalitet hade förändrats under det förra årtiondet, dels att studera saA decrease in male reproductive function, including sperm counts, during the second half of the 20th century, has been postulated. During this period, testicular cancer has increased several-fold. Environmental and lifestyle-related factors have been proposed as explanations for a possible negative trend in male reproductive function. One important lifestyle factor is smoking. However, smoking dur
This thesis deals with collusion risks in e-commerce markets based on an analysis of economic theory on structural factors facilitating collusion and empirical findings from studies and case law. It further offers an analysis of the legal status of any such collusion and a discussion on competition policy in relation to it. Whereas the legal rules governing collusion in Article 81(1) of the EC Tre
Syftet med denna uppsats är att utreda hur försäkringstagaren, vid skada på byggnad, ska ersättas ur företagsförsäkringen respektive konsumentförsäkringen. När skada uppkommer på byggnad tillämpas värderingsreglerna i kapitel 6 i FAL för att bestämma storleken på försäkringsersättningen. Den metod som stadgas i FAL är dagsvärdemetoden. Ersättning enligt dagsvärdet anses motsvara återanskaffningsThe purpose of this thesis is to analyse how the insured shall be compensated by the insurance companies, in regards to damages to buildings. When a building is damaged the rules of valuation, found in chapter 6 of FAL (the Swedish Insurance Act), will be applied to determine the amount of the reimbursement. The method that is provided in FAL is the current value method. Compensation according t
The Purpose of this study is to analyze possible differences in the conditions of labor market entry for young people in Swedish High Schools. Differences in conditions for students are interesting to study with the knowledge that youth unemployment in Sweden today is quite high compared to many other European countries and that young people generally have a weaker position in the labor market tha
För att kommissionen ska vara behörig att granska ett förvärv krävs det att kontroll har förvärvats i enlighet med koncentrationsförordningen. Således är kommissionen oförmögen att agera vid problematiska icke kontrollerande minoritetsförvärv (så kallade strukturella förbindelser). Det är dock inte bara förvärv av kontroll som kan orsaka betydande konkurrensskada. Liknande skada kan förekomma vid For the Commission to be competent to examine an acquisition, must concern an acquisition of control within the meaning of the Merger Regulation. Therefore the Commission is unable to act upon problematical non-controlling minority shareholdings (also known as structural links). Anticompetitive effects, however, may arise in situations where control has not been acquired. Established economic theo
Mobility constitutes an important aspect in order to create quality of life, where a well working public transportation can decrease the level of stress and create more “flow” in the everyday life (Atkins 2009). However, not all individuals have the mobility prerequisites; for people with disabilities, the preconditions of movement are limited. The purpose of this thesis is to examine the accessi
Ett väl fungerande skattesystem utgör basen för finansieringen av välfärdssystemet. Skatteflykt ger upphov till skattebaserosion, ett fenomen som ger upphov till stora kostnader, såväl för Sverige som för andra stater och försvårar finansieringen av välfärdssystemet. Generalklausuler utgör ett verktyg mot skatteflykt. I Sverige finns sedan många år tillbaka en generalklausul mot skatteflykt i skatThe basis for the funding of welfare systems is a well-functioning tax system. Tax base erosion, founded in tax avoidance, imposes significant costs for both Sweden and other countries and it risks obstructing the funding of the welfare system. General Anti-Avoidance Rules (GAARs) is an instrument for countering tax avoidance. For many years, Sweden has had a GAAR in the Swedish Anti-Avoidance Act
Konkurrensklausuler i anställningsavtal avser att begränsa arbetstagares rätt att fritt konkurrera efter avslutad anställning. Uppsatsen ämnar att bedöma om 2015 års överenskommelse om konkurrensklausuler är att betrakta som god sed på arbetsmarknaden. Denna fråga måste först besvaras innan uppsatsens huvudfråga kan besvaras, nämligen om perdurerande viten är tillåtna i konkurrensklausuler och om The purpose of a competition clause in a employment contract is to restrain the employees possibilities to compete with the former employer after he or she quits the employment. This study aims to assess if the 2015 collective agreement on competition clauses in employment contracts is to be regarded as good practice in the Swedish labor market i.e become binding on all employers and employees whe
En visitationszon är ett tillfälligt geografiskt avgränsat område, inom vilket kroppsvisitation och husrannsakan av fordon får företas utan att någon konkret misstanke om brott föreligger. Syftet med visitationszoner är framförallt att ge polisen möjlighet att söka efter vapen och andra farliga föremål. Det mest detaljerade förslaget på visitationszoner som straffprocessuellt tvångsmedel som återfA stop and search zone is a temporary and geographically demarcated area, within which frisking and search of vehicles may be carried out without any concrete suspicion of a crime. The purpose of stop and search zones is primarily to give the police the opportunity to search for weapons and other dangerous objects. The most detailed proposal for stop and search zone as a coercive measure that is f
Den upphandlande myndigheten ges en stor frihet vid upphandling och kan ställa krav på bl.a. leverantören och upphandlingsföremålet. Ett villkor vid kravställande är att kravet utformats på ett sätt som möjliggör en kontroll av kravet. Riktigheten av en leverantörs lämnande uppgifter ska kunna kontrolleras av den upphandlande myndigheten. Att ett krav ska vara möjligt att kontrollera följer av EU-
En ny lag ska införas i Sverige för att bland annat reglera private equity-investeringar – alltså investeringar i onoterade andelar. Lagen avser investeringar som sker genom att ansvaret för investerarnas medel överlåts till förvaltare för sådana förvärv. Lagstiftningen, som ställer nya krav på förvaltarna, har sin grund i de speciella risker som investeringarna kan medföra. Genom uppsatsen ska beA new law is to be enforced in Sweden in order to regulate investments in private equity – that is investments in unlisted companies. The law concerns investments which are placed through a trustee. It is motivated by the fact that the investor takes a special risk when the trustee places the capital of the investor in unlisted companies. In this essay I will investigate current and coming regulat

This paper is inspired by recent literature that emphasise the performative, sensory, and embodied experiences of heritage practices, as well as by the recent “spatial” turn in China studies. Both rural and urban China has undergone dramatic spatial changes since 1949 that at first were brought about by ideological and political movements and later by market
This chapter examines the evolution of REDD+ governance and identifies policy options to increase synergies among REDD+, the sustainable management of forests and biodiversity conservation. REDD+ emerged at the international level as a point of convergemnce acorss the 'institutional complexes' of forests, climate and biodiversity. This convergence attracted the engagement of a wide range of instit
This thesis contributes to research on experimental and behavioral economics as well as auction theory. It consists of five papers.The first paper, Differences Attract: An Experimental Study of Focusing in Economic Choice, studies whether individuals' decisions are affected by focus effects. The focus effect suggests that individuals focus more on an attribute that has a larger difference among th
Popular Abstract in Swedish 80 % av den globala energi som används härrör från fossila bränslen. Ytterligare 10 % baseras på förbränning av någon form av förnyelsebart bränsle. Således är 90 % av vår energianvändning beroende av någon typ av förbränning, oavsett det rör sig om förbränning av olja, kol, gas eller biomassa. I en tid då priset på olja ständigt slår nya rekord, lagstiftningen kring miTemperature is one of the most fundamental parameters to be measured in many research disciplines. In combustion science, a thorough knowledge of temperature is essential for improving and optimizing combustion processes. Increasingly strict environmental legislation, greater demands for energy, and efforts to reduce dependence upon fossil fuels are forcing the combustion industry to obtain more a
