Rekonstruktion av företag inom insolvenslagstiftningens ramar : en jämförande studie av svensk och amerikansk insolvensrätt
- 2001
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Insolvency law is the rooth of commercial and financial law because it obliges the legislator to chose. There is not enough money to go round so the law must chose who to pay. The law must always decide who is to bear the risk so there is always a winner and a loser. The insolvency law has been at the policy agenda in many countries in the last years. In France, Germany, Italy, Japan and other countries have the legal frameworks changed from liquidation procedures to reorganization business. The legal situation in Sweden has also changed from compositions to reorganization business, lagen om företagsrekonstruktion. The key issues are to encourage the formal proceeding by enlarging the debtors control of the business and by inroads creditors rights, in which case the proceeding is pro-debtor.This dissertation compares Swedish and American Bankruptcy Codes with respect to similarities and differences at macro- and micro perspectives. Chapter 11 Reorganization Business in America provides a corporate rehabilitation model, which has been used in other countries. The dissertation also compares the use of the concepts of - the purpose, - the function and - the direction of Swedish and American Bankruptcy Laws in order to establish whether the law is pro-debtor or pro-creditor. The key indicators of whether the rescue proceeding is pro-debtor or pro-creditor include; - How easy it is to enter the rescue proceeding. Debtor's incentives to commence proceeding, freeze on executions and liquidation petitions, impact on security, impact on title of finance, impact on set-off and netting, impact on contract rescissions and lease forfeitures. Disclaimer and abandonment, ability to replace the management, financing of the rescue, scope of the rehabilitation plan. It is argued that the optimal bankruptcy law can be achieved if the law purpose, the function and the law direction relate to each other in Sweden, in both reorganization business and in the liquidation code and it also compared with the American Bankruptcy Code. According to my opinion this is important both in a national and international context.The dissertation also deals with debtor's contract in an insolvency situation in reorganization business and in liquidation. Swedish Laws are compared to the American Bankruptcy Code and point out similarities and differences. In the American Bankruptcy Code there is a special section 365 § BC dealing with executory contract, this section is nearly the same for both the reorganization- and liquidationproceedings. The contracts must be unperformed which means the obligation of both the bankrupt and the other party in the contract are so far unperformed that the failure of either to complete performance would constitute a material breach excusing the performance of the other. If the contract is unperformed the debtor has the possibility to chose if the contracts shall be assumed, assumed and assigned or rejected. Section 365 § BC requires the court to consider whether assumption of the contract in question will further be needed in either rehabilitation or liquidation of the bankruptcy estate. The court reviews the financial impact of the estate and if it is benefiting becoming administratively obligated to perform. The court also review if is best to breach the contract. In Sweden we have different sections which regulate the situation. One section in our reorganization law, lagen om företagsrekonstruktion, we also have two special sections in the law of Sale of Goods, which deals with contract when a debtor became insolvent or file for reorganization business. But we don't have any section in our liquidation law, konkurslagstiftningen, which in my opinion is very strange. We also have a problem with the legislation about swaps and netting which are regulated in a special law, lagen om handel med finansiella intrument. Particular attention is given to the advantages and disadvantages of the existing rules in Swedish legal system compared with 365 § in American Bankruptcy Code. From a national point of view such section should preferably include all types of contract in only one section which is nearly the same as the American model of section 365 §.

Prohibiting Purchase of Sex in Sweden : Impact, Obstacles, Potential, and Supporting Escape
- 2010
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper analyzes the core reasons for the Swedish law from 1999 which criminalizes purchase of sex and decriminalizes the prostituted person, passed as part of an omnibus bill against violence against women and recognizing prostitution as a form of it. Further, it documents the law’s impact by comparing data from several recent Swedish studies with the situation in other relevant countries, concluding the law has significantly reduced the occurrence of prostitution manifolds compared to its neighboring countries. Crucial obstacles to effective implementation are also addressed, particularly in current case law. Some of the critique against the law and disinformation about the law’s effects are also commented. Finally, to realize its full potential to support escape from prostitution more efficiently, it is argued that the civil rights of prostituted persons under current law should be strengthened to get damages paid for directly by the tricks/johns for the harm they have contributed to. An additional consideration is for individual states to extend the use of the Palermo Protocol (international law acknowledging connections between prostitution and sex trafficking) to charge tricks for trafficking when they “receive” persons who are effectively pimped.

Denmark, Finland and Sweden: Temporary Agency Work Integrated in the Collective Bargaining System

Ingår i: Transnational Labour Regulation. - : P.I.E. Peter Lang, Brussels. - 9789052014173

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Författarna beskriver hur arbete i bemanningsföretag regleras i Danmark, Finland och Sverige, för att visa att anställningsvillkoren för uthyrda arbetstagare kan regleras framgångsrikt genom kollektivavtal, även där det saknas lagreglering på området. En förutsättning är dock att det finns ett starkt kollektivavtalssystem som täcker den "traditionella" arbetsmarknaden.

Germany: "Premature Implementation" of the draft Directive in Spite of Resistance in the Council

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Författaren beskriver hur den tyska regleringen av uthyrning av arbetskraft har utvecklats från början av 1900-talet till 2003. Samtidigt som den tyska regeringen blockerade en överenskommelse i EU:s ministerråd om Europeiska kommissionens förslag till direktiv om arbete i bemanningsföretag, "implementerade" den paradoxalt nog samma förslag i tysk rätt.

The New Membmer States: Regulating a New Phenomenon
- 2008
-
Ingår i: Transnational Labour regulation. - : P.I.E. Peter Lang Brussels. - 9789052014173
-
Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Efter att EU utvidgades 2004 har allt fler arbetstagare hyrts ut av bemanningsföretag från de nya medlemsstaterna till de gamla. Fram till dess var uthyrning av arbetskraft en relativt ny företeelse i de nya medlemsstaterna. Trots det hade hälften av dem särskild lagstiftning om arbete i bemanningsföretag, och den var i hög grad inspirerad av de förslag som diskuterades på EU-nivå.

Vad är ”bestämmelser som rör ordre public”? : En kommentar till domen i målet C-319/06 Kommissionen mot Luxemburg
- 2008
-
Ingår i: Europarättslig tidskrift. - 1403-8722 .- 2002-3561. ; 11:4, s. 1059 – 1065-

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Sedan EG-domstolen i målen Laval och Rüffert dragit upp strikta gränser för vad medlemsstaterna får kräva av utländska företag enligt utstationeringsdirektivets huvudregel, riktas uppmärksamheten på vad som ligger i möjligheten att göra förbehåll för regler som rör ordre public. Med domen den 19 juni 2008 i målet C- 319/06, Kommissionen mot Luxemburg, hade EG-domstolen för första gången anledning att mer utförligt uttala sig om bestämmelsens innebörd – eller kanske snarare om vad den inte innebär.
