Lov Og Praksis Bøndenes våpenplikt – Lov og praksis Av Martin Teigen Hanssen Institutt for arkeologi, historie, kultur- og religionsvitenskap Historie/HIS350 2017 Forord Om noen hadde fortalt meg for fem år siden at jeg skulle levere en masteroppgave, er det en påstand jeg ikke ville tatt noe særlig seriøst. Men nå sitter jeg her i dag med et ferdig masterprosjekt. Når jeg flyttet fra det kalde nord til, i min måleskala, storbyen Bergen og skulle begynne på Masterstudiet, virket dette som et uoppnåelig prosjekt. Men iløpet av denne utfordrende prosessen har jeg lært utrolig mye, og har lært at ingenting er umulig så lenge man jobber for det. Å jobbe med kilder som er nesten 1000 år gamle og samtidig gå i dybden på et felt jeg tidligere hadde liten kunnskap om tidligere har vært en utrolig lærerik og interessant prosess, og håper at du som leser kan lære like mye som meg om bøndens våpenplikt og våpenting som jeg har. Jeg vil gi en spesiell takk til min veileder Geir Atle Ersland, som har vært et solid faglig anker, og alltid gitt raske og klare tilbakemeldinger. Jeg vil også takke mine medstudenter for gode diskusjoner og inspirasjon gjennom denne prosessen. Samtidig vil jeg og takke familie og venner som har vært godt støtte og hjelp gjennom denne prosessen.

I disse bestemmelse står det at bøndene var pliktig å holde blant annet sverd, skjold, bue og jernhatt. Om noen av disse manglet, måtte de betale bot for hver av våpnene som manglet. Kontrollorganet som skulle påse at bøndene hadde de våpnene de var pliktig å holde var våpentinget. Beskrivelsen av hvordan dette skulle fungere i praksis finner vi i Gulatingslovens § 309, hentet fra Knut Robberstads oversettelse: Alltid når det ska vera våpenting, skal årmann eller lendmann segja til um hausten og halda tinget um våren. Alle frie og fullmyndige menn skal søkja tinget, elles skal dei bøta 3 øyrar i vite kvar av dei. No skal menn syna våpni sine, som mælt er i lovene. Ein mann skal ha breidøks eller sverd, og spjot og skjold som i det i verste fall skal liggja tri jarnspenger tvert yver, med handtak som er fastklinka med jarnsaum. No er det 3 øyrar i bot for kvart folkevåpen. Bøndene skal yta to tylfter piler og ein boge til kvar tofte; og bøta ein øyra for kvar odd som vantar, men 3 øyrar for bogen.1 Problemstillingen for dette prosjektet er å undersøke om Gulatingsloven, Frostatingsloven og Landslovens bestemmelser om våpenplikt var en realitet eller bare bestemmelser på pergament. I den sammenheng skal jeg undersøke hvem som møtte på våpentinget, hvor våpentinget ble holdt, og hvordan våpentingene foregikk. Først vil

His reign was marked by aggressive military campaigns and conquest, particularly in the Norse-dominated parts of the British Isles, where he extended his rule to the Kingdom of the Isles and Dublin. His daughter, Ragnhild, was born in 1090. As the only son of King Olaf Kyrre, Magnus was proclaimed king in southeastern Norway shortly after his father's death in 1093. In the north, his claim was contested by his cousin, Haakon Magnusson (son of King Magnus Haraldsson), and the two co-ruled uneasily until Haakon's death in 1095.

Lova er overlevert i 39 handskrifter frå mellomalderen, og nokre få yngre. Dei fleste ligg i samlingar i Danmark og Sverige. Tre av mellomalderhandskriftene ligg i dag i norske samlingar, to ved Nasjonalbiblioteket og eitt ved Gunnerusbiblioteket i Trondheim. To av desse tre har vore i Noreg frå dei blei skrivne. Dei to eldste ligg ved Nasjonalbiblioteket. Eit hovudmål for denne boka er å kaste lys over dei handskriftene av norske mellomalderlover som ligg ved Nasjonalbiblioteket. Hovudvekta vil liggje på handskriftene frå mellomalderen, Ms.4° 1 og Ms.4° 317, som begge inneheld landslova. Dei blir grundig beskrivne, også med omsyn til innhald og språk. Ein del rettarbøter er overleverte i begge desse handskriftene, og for å lette lesinga er opplysningar om innhaldet gjevne to stader. Boka omfattar også dei 25 handskriftene av omsetjing av landslova til dansk, og andre handskrifter av norske lover. Innleiingsvis er det gjeve eit samla oversyn over dei norske lovene frå mellomalderen, som alle finst i avskrifter ved Nasjonalbiblioteket. Her har eg henta stoff også frå Rindal 2004 og Rindal og Spørck 2018, endå om det ikkje er særskilt nemnt.

  • The Two EEA Courts’ – a Norwegian Perspective 1
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by NORA - Norwegian Open Research Archives ‘The two EEA Courts’ – a Norwegian perspective 1 Dr. Halvard Haukeland Fredriksen, University of Bergen A. Introduction – the notion of ‘EEA Courts’ To most Norwegian lawyers, the term ‘the two EEA Courts’ would probably be understood as a reference to the EFTA Court and the Supreme Court of Norway rather than, as suggested here, to the EFTA Court and ECJ. The understanding of the ECJ as not only an EU but also an EEA Court of Justice has only slowly sunk in to the Norwegian legal community.2 However, not least due to the somewhat troubling prospects to the free movement of capital in the EEA offered by the ECJ’s application of Article 40 EEA in a recent string of cases, 3 appreciation of the ECJ as the gatekeeper for market operators from the EFTA States seeking judicial protec- tion in the EU appears to gain ground: If the ECJ embarks on an interpretation of EEA law which differs from its own interpretation of corresponding provisions of EU law, the result will be gradual undermining of the Agreements overall goal to extend the internal market to include the EFTA States. Thus, the fate of the EEA Agreement at long last hangs on its continued acceptance by the ECJ. Even acknowledging that the ECJ is to be understood as an EEA Court, most Norwegian lawyers would probably argue that this raises the number of EEA Courts to three – the Supreme Court of Norway, the EFTA Court and the ECJ.4 A recent survey of the applica- tion of EEA law in Norwegian courts 1994-2010 has revealed that lower Norwegian courts indeed do appear to see the Supreme Court as an EEA Court proper, taking its decisions into 1 Readers with command of Norwegian should be warned at the outset that this contribution draws heavily upon the more extensive account in the author’s report ‘EU/EØS-rett i norske domstoler’ [EU/EEA law in Norwegian Courts], Report commissioned by the Norwegian EEA Review Committee, Oslo 2011.

The purpose of this report is to illuminate a number of the challenges faced by the labour-law systems of the Nordic countries in the light of an increasingly well-developed European law system. The first part of the report was prepared by Dr. Jur. Jens Kristiansen, the editor-in-chief, and focuses on a number of the general challenges facing the labour-law systems of the Nordic countries in the form of European rules and court decisions. The second part of the report was prepared by various representatives of employer and employee organisations in the Nordic countries and illustrates some of the challenges faced by the social partners in their interaction with the European court system and the way in which these challenges have been addressed in the individual countries.

Eldre deler av boksamlingen, som tidligere hadde vært spredt rundt på fakultetet, kunne plasseres i et nytt magasin i kjelleren, og det som siden 1972 hadde vært en egen avdeling for eldre juridisk og rettshistorisk litteratur, Rettshistorisk samling, fikk flytte inn i et fredet biblioteklokale i annen etasje i Domus Bibliotheca Boksamlingene inneholder betydelige mengder eldre norske rettskilder – i tillegg til det som finnes ved andre bibliotek.

Advocate Anders Flaatin Wilhelmsen Advocate Ane Sydnes Egeland UNOFFICIAL TRANSLATION The case involves the question of whether the decision taken by the Royal Decree of 10 June 2016 on awarding production licences for petroleum on the Norwegian continental shelf in Barents Sea South and in Barents Sea South-East, the “23rd Licensing Round” is invalid. The decision was taken pursuant to the Norwegian Act of 29 November 1996 No. 72 relating to Petroleum Activities, Section 3-3. More specifically, the issues in the case are whether the decision is contrary to Article 112 of the Norwegian Constitution, whether the decision is contrary to Article 2 or Article 8 of the European Human Rights Convention, as well as Article 93 or Article 102 of the Norwegian Constitution, and whether the decision is invalid because of procedural errors. The case raises in particular questions regarding the interpretation of Article 112 of the Norwegian Constitution related to whether, and the extent to which, the provision grants rights, and how the provision may be applied to emissions of greenhouse gases.

  • The Succession and Coronation of Magnus Erlingsson
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by NORA - Norwegian Open Research Archives UNIVERSITY OF OSLO INSTITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY, CONSERVATION AND HISTORY Dissertation for the degree of Master of Arts: Norwegian Kingship Transformed: the Succession and Coronation of Magnus Erlingsson (Depiction of Magnus Erlingsson, by Gerhard Munthe, 1899) Thomas Malo Tollefsen Spring 2015 1 2 Abstract This dissertation is an exploration of the succession and coronation of Magnus Erlingsson based upon three themes: Norwegian kingship in theory, Norwegian kingship in practise, and Norwegian kingship in context, and a search for points of similarity and contrast with European trends. In the first theme the focus of the analysis will be the coronation of Magnus Erlingsson, exploring this in two parts: the rules of kingmaking and the narration of Snorre in the Saga of Magnus Erlingsson, and motivations behind the coronation. In the second theme the focus will again be on the coronation of Magnus Erlingsson. First, this dissertation attempts to put together a workable timeline from when Magnus is acclaimed king in 1161 to his coronation in either 1163 or 1164. Then the analysis shifts to the coronation itself, before it falls on the coronation oath and the Letter of Privileges to see what they can tell us about Magnus’s kingship, and the Law of Succession and what it meant for the future. In the third theme this dissertation attempts to contextualise Magnus’s kingship and this chapter will focus on two things: acquisition, and by extension how to legitimise your rule once it has been acquired, and succession to kingship.
