Skyddsvärda Intressen & Straffvärda Kränkningar. Om Sexualbrotten I Det Straffrättsliga Systemet Med Utgångspunkt I Brottet Sexuellt Ofredande / Values Worthy Of Legal Protection And Violations That Deserve To Be Punished. Sexual Offences In Swedish Criminal Law With The Offence Of Sexual Harassment As The Starting Point, Linnéa Wegerstad

Linnéa Wegerstad

What is considered a sexual offense and what constitutes the sexual integrity protected by Swedish criminal law?

This Essay describes a technique that we have developed to help students learn the meaning of law and its cultural, social, and structural significance. The traditional framing of the study of contract doctrine as one that is objective, neutral, and fair avoids …

Global Justice And International Economic Law: Three Takes, Frank Garcia

Frank J. Garcia

For centuries, international trade has been seen as essential to the wealth and power of nations, and defended as a system through which all could benefit. It is only recently that trade's problematic role as an engine of distributive justice has begun to be understood, due in part to globalization and the global justice debates. In this compelling new book, international legal scholar Frank J. Garcia proposes a radically new way to evaluate, construct, and manage international trade - one that is based on norms of economic justice as well as comparative advantage and national interest. This book examines three …
