Oskyldighetspresumtionen som svar - En studie om oskyldighetspresumtionens rättsliga ställning i ljuset av Lindomeproblematiken

Lindomeproblematiken tar sikte på fall där det finns fler än två misstänkta gärningsmän men utredningen inte kan fastställa vilken av de två gärningspersonerna som begått brottet eller om de utfört gärningen tillsammans. I sådana fall frias de åtalade om det inte kan uteslutas att någon av de misstänkta förhållit sig helt passiv under händelseförloppet. Förfarandesättet kan motiveras av oskyldighe‘Lindomeproblematiken’ describes the notion where there are more than two perpetrators suspected of a crime, but the investigation cannot determine which of the two has committed the crime or whether they carried out the act together. In such cases, the defendants are acquitted when it cannot be ruled out that one of the suspects remained completely passive during the course of events. The procedu

Sociala medier och självkänsla: en korrelationsstudie

Sociala medier är idag ett självklart inslag i många människors liv, och deras utrymme i samhället fortsätter att expandera. Vår självkänsla är viktig för vår psykiska hälsa då en bra självkänsla fungerar som ett slags “psykologiskt vaccin” mot psykisk ohälsa. Med detta som bakgrund är det tydligt att det är ett viktigt fokus att bygga på den forskning som redan har undersökt sambanden mellan sociA lot of people are using social media today, and the usage is continuously increasing. Our self-esteem is important for our psychological health since it works as a “psychological vaccine” against psychological ill-health. With this being said it is clear that it is important to add to the research that has already been done regarding the correlation between social media usage and self-esteem. Th

Harmoniserad elektrifiering av luftfarten

Elektrifieringstrenden inom transportsektorn tycks under hösten ha lämnat marken; elflyg anses vara ett av svaren på hur luftfarten skall reducera sin omdebatterade klimatpåverkan i framtiden. En ökning av tunga elektrifierade fordon, inklusive flyg, resulterar i konsekvenser för elsystemet sett till ökat effektbehov och nya lastprofiler. Examensarbetet ämnar således undersöka vilken roll regional

Fractionation of Wheat Bran for Utilisation in Biorefinery

Wheat bran is a by-product from the production of wheat flour. Nowadays wheat bran is mostly used as feed for animals, in the food and baking industry or it is simply burned in open air. However, wheat bran could be used in biorefineries for production of value-added products such as bioplastics, biofuels and chemicals as a substitute for fossil feedstocks as petroleum. Since wheat bran is an agri

Hints of Sustainable Development in the Philippines: Genuine Savings 1902-2018

The Philippines is one of the most affected countries by climate change. Income levels do not say much about its national wealth as it leaves out depreciation and excludes other necessary types of capital but are still mainly used to report a country’s economic standing regardless of its sustainability. This study uses Genuine Savings (GS) as an indicator of sustainable development and offers thre
