Bogen analyserer kriminalitetens fordeling og udvikling på individniveau: Hvor stor en del af den danske befolkning registreres for lovovertrædelser?

Bogen undersøger hvorledes den europæiske integration har påvirket den danske aftalemodel og især rollefordelingen mellem overenskomstparterne, Folketinget og domstolene.Denne undersøgelse vedrører for det første de påvirkninger som følger af, at lovgivningsmagten har fået en mere fremtrædende rolle i forhold til overenskomstparterne - og for det andet, de påvirkninger som følger af, at domstolene har fået en mere fremtrædende rolle i forhold til både lovgivningsmagten og overenskomstparterne som led i håndhævelsen af den danske stats EU-retlige forpligtelser.IndholdsoversigtForord IntroduktionDEL I: AFTALEMODELLEN OG DEN EUROPÆISKE INTEGRATIONSPROCES Kapitel 1.

Emnet for bogen er retsmisbrug i dansk formueret. Ved retsmisbrug forstås lidt forenklet den omstændighed, at en person (rettighedshaveren) anvender en retsposition til at opnå en fordel for sig selv eller en anden, som ikke er forudset eller tilsigtet med rettigheden. Hovedformålet er at klarlægge begrebet retsmisbrug teoretisk, at analysere dets retslige grundlag og grænser, at fastslå dets kriterier og plads i retslivet samt at vise, hvordan det bruges i retspraksis. På denne baggrund opstilles en retsmisbrugsregel for den retlige vurdering af retsmisbrug. Jens Evald er lektor i retslære ved Århus Universitet. Bogen er forfatterens doktorafhandling.

Recommended by the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Literacy as an exemplary informational text. For the captains of industry men like Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, J. P. Morgan, and Henry Ford the Gilded Age is a time of big money. Technology boomed with the invention of trains, telephones, electric lights, harvesters, vacuum cleaners, and more. But for millions of immigrant workers, it is a time of big struggles, with adults and children alike working 12 to 14 hours a day under extreme, dangerous conditions. The disparity between the rich and the poor was dismaying, which prompted some people to action. In An Age of Extremes, you'll meet Mother Jones, Ida Tarbell, Big Bill Haywood, Sam Gompers, and other movers and shakers, and get swept up in the enthusiasm of Teddy Roosevelt. You'll also watch the United States take its greatest role on the world stage since the Revolution, as it enters the bloody battlefields of Europe in World War I.About the Series: Master storyteller Joy Hakim has excited millions of young minds with the great drama of American history in her award-winning series A History of US.

Why would a talented young woman enter into a torrid affair with hunger, drugs, sex, and death? Through five lengthy hospital stays, endless therapy, and the loss of family, friends, jobs, and all sense of what it means to be "normal," Marya Hornbacher lovingly embraced her anorexia and bulimia -- until a particularly horrifying bout with the disease in college put the romance of wasting away to rest forever. A vivid, honest, and emotionally wrenching memoir, Wasted is the story of one woman's travels to reality's darker side -- and her decision to find her way back on her own terms.

"Noted literary critic Harold Bloom thinks Mason & Dixon is Pynchon's best book, but that's just a start. Not only does it contain all of the writer's typical density and erudition, it's arguably his most humane depiction of relationships. The title pair are rendered caringly and movingly, and with a lot of humor. The book is a buddy movie, and it's warm and full of earnestness and narratively propulsive once you immerse yourself in its use of 18th-century language. And it is this narrative device-a full immersion in 18th-century language, history, and culture-paired with Pynchon's typical breadth of vocabulary and knowledge that demands a companion. In A Mason & Dixon Companion, Brett Biebel offers contextual maps and photographs, episode-by-episode summaries, and page-by-page annotations explaining allusions, defining obscure vocabulary, and illuminating the book's major themes. The goal is to help readers work their way through a difficult yet remarkably rewarding novel from one of American literature's most significant writers. A Mason & Dixon Companion is so full of friendship, humor, and life, and Pynchon's use of history and language is so carefully chosen that, by the end of the novel, the 18th-century feels closer than ever. Or, at least it should. All of the book's archaic vocabulary and obscure references, its unexplained name-drops and sudden scene-shifts, it's all there to constantly remind us of the importance of paying attention. This Companion aims to help readers in their quest to pay attention"--

En kvinde forsvinder. Hendes mand mistænkes. Sandheden vil gøre dig …ÅNDELØSMens Andrew Mason er på fisketur en weekend, forsvinder hans hustru, Brie, sporløst. De fleste formoder, at Andy er den skyldige – for det er altid ægtemanden, er det ikke? – men politiet er ikke i stand til at rejse tilstrækkeligt med beviser mod ham. Andy går i hundene nogle år – han drikker for meget i et forsøg på at holde sorgen på afstand, og alle hans venner på nær én forsvinder.Nu er der gået seks år, og Andy har omsider fået styr på sit liv. Han har solgt det hus, han tidligere delte med Brie, og er flyttet væk. Han er godt i gang med at slå rødder sammen med sin nye kæreste, Jayne, og livet er godt.Men snart går Andys rolige liv op i sømmene. En dag dukker en kvinde op på hans gamle adresse og begynder at råbe forvirret op, da hun ser det nye hus, der er blevet bygget på grunden. Og så forsvinder kvinden – som har en slående lighed med Brie – lige så pludseligt, som hun kom. Politiet bliver underrettet, og så begynder gamle spørgsmål – og dunkle mistanker – at dukke op til overfladen igen.Kan det virkelig tænkes, at Brie er i live så mange år senere? Og hvis hun er, hvor har hun så været? Inden længe står det klart, at Andy er nødt til at finde ud af, hvad pokker der foregår – af hensyn til fremtiden for både ham selv og dem, han holder af. Spørgsmålet er bare, om han kan holde sig i live længe nok til at finde svarene.---“Åndeløs er velkomponeret og fuld af overraskelser. Det, som hæver den over andre krimihistorier om forsvundne ægtefæller, er mr. Barclays evne til at få læseren til ikke bare at tro på karaktererne men også holde af dem.” - Wall Street Journal”Muligvis det mest komplekse og urovækkende af Linwood Barclays værker indtil nu.” - Toronto Star“Linwood Barclay demonstrerer endnu en gang, at han er en mester udi fortælling, struktur og spænding. Åndeløs fik mig til at gætte med og læse hele natten, og alligevel regnede jeg først det hele ud til sidst. Gribende, tempofyldt og overraskende – han løj ikke, jeg var åndeløs.” - David Koepp“Barclay har struktureret Åndeløs mesterligt – et par ledetråde her, en afsløring der, et par vildledninger og et spor, som vil afgøre, hvor nøje læseren har fulgt med. Hvis man tror, at man har regnet det hele ud, har man ikke regnet noget som helst ud.” - Winnipeg Free Press”Medrivende … Man bliver suget ind i fortællingen lige fra første kapitel.” - AARP Magazine”En læseoplevelse i særklasse. Forfatteren får os til at gætte med helt frem til slutningen … Motiver bliver antydet, og hemmeligheder afsløret, lige til vi når afslutningen, der vil få dig til at falde bagover.” - Booklist”På vanlig Barclay-manér er delplots og karakterer vævet sammen til en stramt fortalt, tilfredsstillende historie. Oplagt til fans af spændingsromaner af Harlan Coben og Lisa Gardner." - Library Journal“En thriller, man bliver afhængig af. En af Barclays bedste.” - Kirkus Reviews”[En] velfortalt bog, der ikke er del af en serie … Barclay skifter mellem forskellige synsvinkler for at holde spændingen intakt … Alle er under mistanke, og de modstridende ledetråde falder omsider på plads som brikkerne i et puslespil. Barclay leverer som altid god underholdning.” - Publishers Weekly

In the early 1980s, Giselle Chin, Jackie Ong, and Ellen Ng are three teenagers drawn together by their shared sense of alienation and desire for something different. "Allied in the weirdest parts of themselves," they envision each other as artistic collaborators and embark on a future defined by freedom and creativity.By the time they are adults, their dreams are murkier. As a performance artist, Giselle must navigate an elite social world she never conceived of. As a coder thrilled by the internet's early egalitarian promise, Jackie must contend with its more sinister shift toward monetization and surveillance. And as a community activist, Ellen confronts the increasing gentrification and policing overwhelming her New York City neighbourhood. Over time their friendship matures and changes, their definitions of success become complicated, and their sense of what matters evolves.Moving from the pre-digital 1980s to the art and tech subcultures of the 1990s to a strikingly imagined portrait of the 2040s, Memory Piece is an innovative and audacious story of three lifelong friends as they strive to build satisfying lives in a world that turns out to be radically different from the one they were promised.

An Instant New York Times Bestseller“A knockout collection. ... Sharp-edged satire deceptively wrapped like a box of Neuhaus chocolates, Table for Two is a winner.” —The New York Times “Superb ... This may be Towles’ best book yet. Each tale is as satisfying as a master chef’s main course, filled with drama, wit, erudition and, most of all, heart.” —Los Angeles Times   Millions of Amor Towles fans are in for a treat as he shares some of his shorter fiction: six stories based in New York City and a novella set in Golden Age Hollywood. The New York stories, most of which take place around the year 2000, consider the fateful consequences that can spring from brief encounters and the delicate mechanics of compromise that operate at the heart of modern marriages. In Towles’s novel Rules of Civility, the indomitable Evelyn Ross leaves New York City in September 1938 with the intention of returning home to Indiana. But as her train pulls into Chicago, where her parents are waiting, she instead extends her ticket to Los Angeles. Told from seven points of view, “Eve in Hollywood” describes how Eve crafts a new future for herself—and others—in a noirish tale that takes us through the movie sets, bungalows, and dive bars of Los Angeles. Written with his signature wit, humor, and sophistication, Table for Two is another glittering addition to Towles’s canon of stylish and transporting fiction.

Modern people say that man should feed with varied food to live. It is true that man should eat, but what to eat? If it concerns the bee, it feeds with honey. The wolf feeds with meat, the sheep - with grass. What with feeds man? Nature has strictly defined who with what should feed himself. To man it has defined to feed with fresh pure food, which is difficult to decompose. The cuisine of modern people is unnatural. It has deviated from natural cuisine and as a result people are exposed to various diseases and sufferings. One day when they get in touch with rational nature and obey its laws it will give to each living creature whatever the creature wishes. Nature knows how to give and how to satisfy the wishes of all living creatures. There is a law in nature stating that if someone wants something nature satisfies his wish.
