- Negotiating experience in the court How do judges assess witness credibility, and how do they proceed to reach sustainable conclusions in a criminal court? This article is based on discussions in four focus groups with lay judges in Swedish district courts. In criminal court trials, a version of an event is generally reinforced if it is confirmed by witnesses. However, if their narratives are too similar, none of them is found trustworthy. The focus group participants agreed that if witnesses were suspected of having discussed their individual experiences of an event and accommodated them into a common story, their testimonies were not considered credible. While testimonies should ideally be untainted by other people’s impressions and opinions, other rules govern the truth of the court. The lay judges appreciated their deliberations, including negotiations on impressions and memories of the trial and they sometimes adjusted their perceptions in the light of information provided by other members of the court. However, if the lay judges are regarded as witnesses of what takes place in the trial, this gives rise to a paradox: While witness negotiations on experiences are regarded as a means to construct a false or biased story, the same kind of interaction between the judges is considered necessary to establish a consensual truth of what actually happened. Key words: witness credibility, lay judges, testimony, court deliberations

Underdogs, rebels, and heroes : Crime narratives as a resource for doing masculinity in autobiographies

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article shows how autobiographies of famous, socially well-established men (re)produce hegemonic masculinity through narratives of offending; how masculine performance is age graded; and that masculinity constructions are accomplished both via what is said and what is not said. The autobiographies of the footballer Zlatan Ibrahimović, the former high jumper Patrik Sjöberg and Sweden’s most famous criminologist, Professor Leif G.W. Persson, are analysed. Common to all three is that they openly describe a variety of crimes they have committed. These three men are highly respected in Sweden and none of them is considered as “a criminal” in general opinion. This article shows that crime can be a resource for doing masculinity even for famous, successful and highly respected men. The crime narratives in these autobiographies tell us something about the culturally accepted representations of masculinity that may not just pass as possible, but even as desirable.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- I december 2019 avgjorde Patent- och marknadsöverdomstolen (PMÖD) vid Svea hovrätt domen i mål PMT 2054-18 Konsumentombudsmannen mot Alexandra Media. Inom ramen för sina bedömningar tillämpade domstolen vid flera tillfällen en direktivkonform tolkning av marknadsföringslagen (MFL), dvs. en tolkning av den svenska lagen mot bakgrund av direktiv 2005/29/EG om otillbörliga affärsmetoder. I och med det utvecklade PMÖD en ny rättspraxis, dvs. ett nytt sätt att tolka transaktionstestet på. Den föreliggande artikeln argumenterar för att denna nya tolkning inte bättre utan sämre stämmer överens med direktivet och därför bör ändras.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- För att effektivisera och kvalitetssäkra handläggningen ändrades domstolsordningen i Sverige den 1 september 2016 genom inrättandet av två nya särskilda domstolar, Patent- och marknadsdomstolen (PMD) samt Patent- och marknadsöverdomstolen (PMÖD). På det sättet samlades domstolsprövningen i immaterialrättsliga och marknadsrättsliga mål. Syftet med den här artikeln är att mot bakgrund av den nya domstolsordningen närmare analysera förhållandet mellan immaterialrätt och otillbörliga affärsmetoder. Artikelns fokus ligger på möjligheten till kumulation av mål samt frågan hur de materiella bedömningarna förhåller sig till varandra. Artikeln är uppbyggd på så vis att det först ges en bakgrundsbeskrivning av det generella förhållandet mellan rättsområdena; därefter beskrivs kort betydelsen av den nya domstolsordningen i Sverige och möjligheten till kumulation av mål; sedan analyseras hur överlappningen mellan rättsområdena manifesterar sig i marknadsföringslagens förbudsregler.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Enligt 5 § marknadsföringslagen skall marknadsföring stämma överens med god marknadsföringssed. I detta ligger bl.a. att marknadsföringen, i enlighet med den s.k. lagstridighetsprincipen, skall vara laglig, vilket betyder att den inte får strida mot annan lag. Lagstridighetsprincipen är så självklar och välförankrad i svensk rätt att det fram till denna tidpunkt inte har ansetts nödvändigt att lagfästa den. Hur självklar och välförankrad lagstridighetsprincipen än må vara i svensk rätt finns det inte mycket skrivet om den. Den här artikeln försöker därför att belysa denna princip med hjälp av en analys av Marknadsdomstolens rättspraxis samt en jämförelse mellan det svenska och det tyska rättsläget med utgångspunkt i EU-rätt.

How have public healthcare providers in Sweden conformed to the European Union’s Web Accessibility Directive regarding accessibility statements on their websites?
- 2023

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The Web Accessibility Directive (WAD) is part of the European Union’s work for digital inclusion. The WAD obligates that public sector bodies’ websites meet accessibility standards and provide an accessibility statement on the website informing about inaccessible content, and a feedback mechanism for reporting accessibility issues or requesting inaccessible content in an accessible format. The objective of this study was to evaluate how healthcare providers in Sweden have applied accessibility statements on their websites as regulated by law. A descriptive study using a mixed methods approach was conducted, by quantitative descriptive data analysis of the healthcare providers’ accessibility statements compliance to requirements and qualitative data analysis of the written information provided in the accessibility statement. All but one of the 37 evaluated healthcare providers published an accessibility statement. None of the healthcare providers fully met the requirements for accessibility statements, and no one complied with the intention of the law, i.e. to provide accessible health information and eHealth services. There was no or minor progress between the first and the latest published accessibility statement. The possibility to declare no or partial compliance with the law, or claim disproportionate burden, and the lack of enforcement procedures, risk producing symbolic actions e.g., publishing accessibility statements without intention to abide by the law. We suggest that the directives for accessibility statements should be advanced regarding comprehensiveness, understandability, and usefulness. It is suggested that the assessment protocol developed for this study may be used for future evaluations of accessibility statements.

Is 'legal empowerment of the poor' relevant to people with disabilities in developing countries? An empirical and normative review.

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background : Legal empowerment of the poor is highly relevant to public health as it aims to relieve income poverty, a main determinant of health. The Commission on Legal Empowerment of the Poor (CLEP) has proposed legal empowerment measures in the following four domains: access to justice and the rule of law, property, labor, and business rights. Despite being overrepresented among the poor, CLEP has not explicitly considered the situation of people with disabilities. Objectives : To examine the empirical evidence for the relevance of the CLEP legal empowerment measures to people with disabilities in low- and lower middle-income countries, and to evaluate the extent to which the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) addresses those measures. Methods : Critical literature review of empirical studies and a checklist assessment of the CRPD. Results : Fourteen included articles confirm that people with disabilities experience problems in the domains of access to justice and the rule of law, labor rights, and business rights. No texts on property rights were found. Evidence for the effectiveness of the proposed measures is insufficient. Overall, the CRPD fully or partially supports two-thirds of the proposed measures (seven out of nine measures for access to justice and the rule of law, none of the five measures for property rights, all seven measures for labor rights, and six out of nine measures for business rights). Conclusions : Although most of the domains of the CLEP legal empowerment measures are relevant to people with disabilities from both empirical and normative perspectives, it is uncertain whether the devised measures are of immediate relevance to them. Further research is warranted in this regard.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Svenska är det språk som ska talas i domstol i Sverige. Sedan 2013 måste domstolar använda sig av auktoriserade tolkar om en eller flera av parterna i ett mål inte talar svenska. I dagsläget råder det brist på auktoriserade tolkar, det finns enligt uppgift bara drygt 200 rättstolkar i Sverige. Att inte använda en specialutbildad tolk innebär stora risker för rättssäkerheten; om tolken inte är insatt i ämnet eller har bristfälliga kunskaper i juridisk terminologi är risken stor att tolkningen blir fel. I denna artikel av fil. dr Gunilla Carstensen och professor Leif Dahlberg presenteras en intervjustudie med domare, advokater och rättstolkar om hur villkoren för tolkning ser ut, vilka valideringsmetoder som finns och hur tolkning i domstol kan förbättras.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Youth Violence: The Discovery of a Social ProblemYouth crime in Swedish editorials 1950-1994 This article offers an analysis of how juvenile delinquency has been treated in editorials in Swedish newspapers between 1950-1994. It shows that the focus has shifted from property offences to violence. The shift is discussed from two perspectives; the objectivist and the constructionist. It is argued that the diminishing interest of the press in juvenile property offences since the beginning of the 1970´s corresponds to the pattern of recorded crime trends. From 1986 onwards, however, youth violence became a major topic in Sweden. Yet this cannot easily be explained by the objectivist approach alone. The constructionist approach seems to be a useful complement. The paper ends with a suggestion that a re-evualation of some parts of the crime statistics is needed. The emergence of youth violence as a social problem after 1986 has probably led to a higher propensity to report such acts. Therefore, statistics that are not dependent upon public reporting should be used when analysing the development of youth violence in Sweden.
