Thesis (MA)--University of Stellenbosch, 2003.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In recent years the issue of relocation has been much discussed and litigated. The complexity of the issues inherent in relocation disputes and the relative lack of research in the area points to the need for a more comprehensive, coherent and empirically sound approach than exists at present. The major considerations involved in relocation disputes, using the best interests of the child standard as a reference point throughout, in terms of the available research and issues that require empirical attention, are presented

La tutela internazionale del fanciullo è un settore cruciale del diritto in quanto coinvolge il trattamento di un soggetto particolarmente vulnerabile e più esposto alla violazione dei diritti fondamentali. La sottrazione internazionale di minore ne è l esempio più significativo: la problematica dell affidamento della prole, soprattutto se caratterizzata da una connotazione di trans nazionalità, impone nuove sfide agli ordinamenti giuridici nazionali. Le frontiere diventano causa di violazione dei diritti fondamentali del bambino tutte le volte in cui un genitore decide di trasferire o tratte

The emergence of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) 1989 is a welcome development in the international community.

One of such principles is the best interests of the child (BIC).

Abstract:
The purpose of this study was to explore if and how the Swedish Supreme Court are using the concept “the child’s best interest”. This concept is used a lot in Swedish legislation, but it needs interpretation every time it´s used and is often perceived as unclear. This makes it interesting to see how this affects the individual child´s legal rights. Furthermore I want to see if the Supreme Court listen to the child´s own opinion and if not, are there any justifications to why not. The study has a quantitative starting point, where I have gone through a number of judgments and then chosen seven

Abstract:
In November 2016 the Swedish government requested a study where actions were suggested in order to strengthen the children's rights perspective for those children living at refuges. This resulted in the commission of inquiry "A window of opportunity- a strengthen children's rights perspective for children in refuges" (SOU 2017:112). The aim for this paper is to study how this inquiry is constructed and in which way it problematize children's rights and will be guided by three research questions: how is the concept ‘children's rights' problematized in the report SOU 2017:112, how does the probl

Additionally, it was to examine the social workers’ and the judges’ views on children’s’ rights in this process. The study was based on qualitative research where six semi-structured interviews were conducted. Four social workers and two judges working with custody- investigations, and disputes were interviewed. The analysis consists of two key concepts: the concept of discretion and child sociology.

The purpose of this law-sociological study was to, on the basis of the District Court's decree to single custody, analyze the District Court’s comprehensive ideas and fall-oriented interpretations of the concept of the best interest of the child and the way they are constructed in connection with the District Court's application of the new law regulation of 6kap. 5§ FB regarding collaboration between parents. Our empirical data consisted of ten decrees to single custody. The decrees were examined and analyzed on the basis of social constructionism as a theory and the idea-analysis as the study

FN:s konvention om barnets rättigheter (barnkonventionen) ratificerades av Sverige 1990 och har sedan dess fått avtryck i fysisk planering genom tillämpningen av begreppet barnperspektiv. Malmö stads vision om den barnvänliga staden, ska erbjuda både goda uppväxtvillkor för barn och goda boendemiljöer för barnfamiljer. För att uppnå detta framgår det i översiktsplanerna att både barnperspektivet och barns perspektiv ska beaktas. I beslutsprocesser som i detaljplaner beaktas barnperspektivet vid planering av förskolor och väldigt lite om barns boendemiljöer (Malmö stad, 2012; 2014; 2018).  Barn

Bakgrund: Svensk migrationslagstiftning har sin grund i en äldre rättsordning som uppkom i och med nationalstatens grundande. Efter andra världskriget växte en ny rättsordning fram baserad på mänskliga rättigheter. Barnets bästa är ett begrepp som har vuxit fram utifrån barns särskilda skyddsbehov och har sedan 1980-talet i ökande omfattning varit del av svensk lagstiftning. Sedan lagändringar i föräldrabalken 2018 ska barnets bästa ges största vikt vid alla frågor som rör adoption av ett barn. Dess-utom ska oftare begäras in ett yttrande från Migrationsverket.

Det empiriska materialet utgick ifrån 14 domar där det fanns uppgifter om pappans våld inom familjen. Tingsrätten hade som uppgift att döma huruvida vårdnaden skulle vara gemensam eller ensam för föräldrarnas gemensamma barn.
