The interventions of the Turkish military in Turkish politics have been many and severe. As a consequence the development of a Turkish democracy has been backtracked and halted on occasions.

This constitution, written by the military,

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.

Den rådande marknaden har nått en punkt där teknisk innovation och tekniska egenskaper har blivit mindre viktiga konkurrensmedel, varför TechCo har insett vikten av tidig brukarinvolvering i innovationsprocessen. För att kunna dra fördel av brukarinvolvering så krävs det emellertid ett innovativt klimat och en effektiv FFE-process. Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka hur pass förbereddAs the topical engineering industry has reached a point where technical innovation and technical features have become less important as means of competition, TechCo has realized the importance of user involvement in their early stages of development. However, in order to absorb this new input flow, certain prerequisites are needed namely an innovative climate and a proficient FFE. The purpose of t

Sociala hänsynstaganden, som exempelvis spelberoende, minderårigas spelande samt förebyggandet av brottslighet och bedrägeri, har traditionellt motiverat Medlemsstaternas nästintill ovillkorliga rätt att reglera spel på nationell nivå. När spel på Internet introducerades valde EU-domstolen att applicera samma argument och fortsätta bekräfta denna rätt.

When online gambling was introduced, the CJEU decided to apply the same arguments and continue to affirm the strong rights
