''No one should become ill, be injured or die at work'' : A qualitative study of fatal occupatioanal harms in the Swedish construction industry.Blazic, Tjasa January 2024 (has links)
Fatal occupational harms have profound and far-reaching impacts, extendingbeyond the directly affected workers. These incidents often result from violationsof occupational health and safety regulations, particularly in the constructionindustry—a crucial driver of the global economy characterized by its dynamicwork environment. Despite their significant impact, occupational harms rarelyreceive public attention and are seldom discussed within criminological discourse.However, the prevention of occupational harm is mandated by law, highlightingtheir nature as higlhy preventable. This study investigates fatal occupationalharms in the Swedish construction industry, focusing on the enforcementmeasures employed by occupational health and safety inspectors. It aims to assessthe impact of these measures on achieving compliance and to identify theunderlying factors contributing to these fatal incidents. Using qualitative contentanalysis, this pilot study examines a sample of 20 reported occupational harmswithin the construction industry reported to the Swedish Work EnvironmentAuthority. The analysis revealed that improvement notices are the most frequentlyused and impactful enforcement measure. Furthermore, a range of unsafe actionsand conditions were identified as underlying factors contributing to the fataloccupational harms reported. While preliminary, the findings provide valuableinsights that can inform more comprehensive future research. Treatingoccupational harm with the same seriousness as street-level crime incriminological discourse is essential for promoting corporate accountability,safeguarding worker well-being, and preserving community welfare. Thisapproach is crucial for enhancing occupational safety and preventing future harmin the construction industry.

Ex Post vs. Ex Ante Enforcement : Competition Law and the Digital Markets ActWaldén, Jesper, Davoodi, Benjamin January 2024 (has links)
The tremendous growth of business and their impact on competition within the market raises concerns regarding the regulators ability to enforce fair competition and regulate large corporations. While Competition law strives to regulate the market through tangible punishment, its reactive nature might result in difficulties swiftly addressing anti competitive practices. This study explores the comparison of reactive and proactive regulatory enforcement measures on business compliance, by comparing Competition law with the new Digital Markets Act. The research, compiling of secondary sources, focuses on using compliance theories to explain the differences in ex post and ex ante enforcement measures and how firms might respond to the two. In the context of Competition law and the Digital Markets Act, we conclude that while big penalties could be a good deterrence, the reactive nature of Competition law has significant disadvantages compared to the proactive Digital Markets Act.

Sovereignty, Peacekeeping, and the United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF), Suez 1956-1967: Insiders’ PerspectivesHilmy, Hanny 13 February 2015 (has links)
This research is concerned with the complex and contested relationship between the sovereign prerogatives of states and the international imperative of defusing world conflicts. Due to its historical setting following World War Two, the national vs. international staking of claims was framed within the escalating imperial-nationalist confrontation and the impending “end of empire”, both of which were significantly influenced by the role Israel played in this saga. The research looks at the issue of “decolonization” and the anti-colonial struggle waged under the leadership of Egypt’s President Nasser. The Suez War is analyzed as the historical event that signaled the beginning of the final chapter in the domination of the European empires in the Middle East (sub-Saharan decolonization followed beginning in the early 1960s), and the emergence of the United States as the new major Western power in the Middle East.
The Suez experience highlighted a stubborn contest between the defenders of the concept of “sovereign consent” and the advocates of “International intervention”. Both the deployment of the United Nations Emergency Force (UNEF) and its termination were surrounded by controversy and legal-political wrangling. The role of UNEF and UN peacekeeping operations in general framed the development of a new concept for an emerging international human rights law and crisis management. The UNEF experience, moreover, brought into sharp relief the need for a conflict resolution component for any peace operation. International conflict management, and human rights protection are both subject to an increasing interventionist international legal regime. Consequently, the traditional concept of “sovereignty” is facing increasing challenge.
By its very nature, the subject matter of this multi-dimensional research involves historical, political and international legal aspects shaping the research’s content and conclusions. The research utilizes the experience and contributions of several key participants in this pioneering peacekeeping experience. In the last chapter, recommendations are made –based on all the elements covered in the research- to suggest contributions to the evolving UN ground rules for international crisis intervention and management. / Graduate / hilmyh@uvic.ca
