Procedural Law : Court Administrations
- 2007
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Procedural law is an important component of any legal system. The formal rules that make up what in academic settings is recognized as a core element of legal science do not merely provide the framework for how the official processing of the law can be performed. Procedural law also determines the efficiency of the court sector and at the same time its principles provide the outmost protection against violations of the rule of law. Not surprisingly, procedural law is a much debated topic. It is also a vital part of the legal education. This 51:st volume of the Scandinavian Studies in Law presents 26 articles on Scandinavian Procedural Law. The articles have all been written by academic jurists, highly prominent judges and officials active in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden. At least two features make the recent development of procedural law in the Scandinavian counties interesting from a broad international perspective. The Scandinavian legal systems exhibit a unique mix of civil and common law traditions, and the judiciaries have in the last decade been profoundly affected by the European Union integration project. In several cases this has resulted in innovative solutions but also given rise to intense debates. In addition to the various articles on procedural law this volume contains presentations of the courts administration bodies in all the Scandinavian countries Table of Contents: Arnardóttir, Oddný Mjöll, Non-discrimination Under Article 14 ECHR: The Burden of Proof, p. 13-40 Backer, Inge Lorange, The Norwegian Reform of Civil Procedure, p. 41-76 Bergholtz, Gunnar, Some Thoughts on Judges' Decision-making, p. 77-89 Bogdan, Michael, The Brussels/Lugano Lis Pendens Rule and the "Italian Torpedo", p. 89-98 Bårdsen, Arnfinn, Reflections on "Fair Trial" in Civil Proceedings According to Article 6 § 1 of the European Convention on Human Rights, p. 99-130 Diesen, Christian, Therapeutic Jurisprudence - an Introduction from a Swedish Perspective, p. 131-162 Eklund, Hans, Article 12 of the UN's Convention on the Rights of the Child and the Procedural Status of Children in Sweden, p. 163-184 Ervasti, Kaijus, Conflicts Before the Courts and Court-annexed Mediation in Finland, p. 185-200 Garde, Peter, The DNA-proof in Practical Danish Criminal Justice, p. 201-214 Heuman, Lars, Objectivity in Swedish Criminal Proceedings, p. 213-228 Jonkka, Jaakko, A Model for the Weighing and Balancing of Interest in the Prosecutor's Legal Discretion, p. 229-262 Kainulainen, Heini, Raped?

Stability and Change in Nordic Labour Law
- 2002
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This volume provides a broad, comparative analysis of the development of Scandinavian labour law over the last decades. The picture of development is one of both stability and change. The institutional framework of Nordic labour relations has remained largely unchanged; employers organisations and trade unions still hold a strong position, and the collective agreement continues to be the principal instrument for regulation of the labour market. But, in other aspects, extensive changes have occurred. Labour law is no longer solely the concern of national legislators and social partners. International influences, especially from the European Community, are important. Further, this volume covers several topics such as equal treatment, employee privacy and temporary-work agencies that would not have been regarded as relevant some thirty years ago. A majority of the contributions were presented at a conference held in Stockholm 2002. Table of Contents: Aarvaag Stokke, Torgeir, Mediation in Collective Interest Disputes, p. 135-158 Bruun, Niklas, The Future of Nordic Labour Law, p. 375-385 Edström, Örjan, Co-Determination in Private Enterprises in Four Nordic Countries, p. 159-188 Eklund, Ronnie, Temporary Employment Agencies in the Nordic Countries, p. 311-333 Fahlbeck, Reinhold, Industrial Relations and Collective Labour Law: Characteristics, Principles and Basic Features, p. 87-133 Hasselbalch, Ole, The Roots - the History of Nordic Labour Law, p. 11-35 Júlíusdóttir, Lára V., Icelandic Labour Law, p. 357-374 von Koskull, Anders, Employment Privacy Protection - Nordic Comparative Perspectives, p. 335-356 Källström, Kent, Employment Agreements and Contract Work in the Nordic Countries, p. 77-86 Malmberg, Jonas, The Collective Agreement as an Instrument for Regulation of Wages and Employment Conditions, p. 189-213 Nielsen, Ruth, Nordic and EU Labour Law, p. 37-75 Numhauser-Henning, Ann, Fixed-term Work in Nordic Labour Law, p. 277-310 Roseberry, Lynn, Equal Rights and Discrimination Law in Scandinavia, p. 215-256 Sigeman, Tore, Employment Protection in Scandinavian Law, p. 257-275 Wahlgren, Peter, Legal Abbreviations, p. 393-415

Tax Law
- 2003
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This volume comprises twenty-four articles covering many different areas of national and international taxation. Both income taxation and issues related to indirect taxes, such as real estate tax, net wealth tax, etc., are discussed. In addition, problems related to personal income taxation, the taxation of companies, and the ongoing European harmonisation of Value Added Taxes and excise taxes are addressed. Several contributors share with the reader a wealth of practical experience concerning enforcement, tax reforms, and the ongoing internationalisation. The Scandinavian countries all have comprehensive social welfare systems and huge public sectors - this has resulted in high standards for social security, but also in some of the world's highest taxes. As a consequence, Scandinavian tax laws are frequently debated in the political arena. In this repsect, this collection also provides an interesting contribution to the international discourse.

Tort Liability and Insurance
- 2001
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The regulations concerning tort and insurance are extremely vital from the economic point of view, ideally providing security for anyone engaging in business operations, as well as compensation for individuals affected by negative consequences. Tort law is a also an area of the law which often give rise to intense debates, as new insights and shifts in perspectives may set the focus on previously more or less unnoticed negative effects. Environmental concerns and new ways of looking at the tobacco industry are just a couple of examples of the latter. Important to mention is furthermore that the issues relating to tort and liability provide compelling challenges for anyone interested in theoretical legal problems. The 23 articles that are presented here reflect to a large extent all the above mentioned aspects and provide an important contribution to the international discussion.
