What it seeks to do is to look into what characterise homicides in this period, in which type of homicide can the decline be seen, has every type of homicide seen a decrease and lastly, has specific types of homicides disappeared or experienced a more dramatic decrease. This was done by looking at the Homicide Overview from the National Criminal Investigation Service Norway and by a content analysis of 82 judicial verdicts. It is quantitative content analysis as it counts variables, but it is mostly a qualitative analysis as it seeks to give a deeper understanding of the homicides. The homicides were divided into four categories; intimate partner homicides; homicides between friends, acquaintances and colleagues; familial homicides; and homicides between other relations (strangers, the perpetrators/victim used a service that the victim/perpetrator provided, and unspecified relations). The judicial verdicts were coded according to 17 different aspects, such as the sex of the perpetrator, whether the homicide took place during the day or night, whether the perpetrator or victim was under the influence of substances and if the victim experienced excessive violence (more violence than needed to take someone’s life). The most striking, or important, findings was that every type of homicide took place in a private residence, except for strangers which took place in public. For all the different types of homicides the IV majority of perpetrators were men ranging from young to middle-aged and their victims was also men, except for intimate partner homicides and homicides between strangers where the victim was female. In only used a service did the majority of victims not experience excessive violence. Substance use was an important aspect in which the majority of stranger perpetrators was under the influence of drugs, while friends/acquaintances/colleagues was under the influence of alcohol. The majority of intimate partner homicides was not specified, but when it was specified was the substance alcohol, this was also the instance for familial, but the substance of choice was alcohol/drugs and for not mentioned was this alcohol or mixed intoxication. The perpetrators bad mental health could be seen in the majority of intimate partner homicides, familial homicides, homicides between strangers and used a service. An interesting aspect that could be seen for intimate partner homicides was that a third of perpetrators was non-Norwegian, this high level was not seen in the other types of homicides. The number of peak years was used to uncover which types of homicides has had a decline as their frequencies has been fluctuating throughout the years. This was further separated by the median year of 2003 as the frequency prior to 2003 was compared to the frequency after 2003. The decline in peak years could be seen in intimate partner homicide, homicides between friends, acquaintances and colleagues and familial homicides. When looking at their actual numbers, it is evident that the decline can be only seen in familial homicides and homicides between friends, acquaintances and colleagues, as the rest has stayed relatively stable, and therefore not every type of homicide has experienced a decline. A dramatic decrease could be seen in intimate partner homicides as it halved in the number of peak years, but the actual numbers has been fluctuating. Familial homicides have experienced a decline in both its peak years and actual numbers, but the most dramatic decrease can be seen in homicides between friends, acquaintances and colleagues, as it decreased from seven to one peak year and from 204 before to 2003 to 168 homicides after 2003. There has also been a decline in the number of male perpetrators, male victims and perpetrators and victims that were under the influence of alcohol. From this it can be suggested that there has been a decline in drunken male on male homicides. V Acknowledgements A massive thanks to Nina Jon whose constructive criticism was much appreciated.

ABSTRACT THE ORIGIN, DEVELOPMENT, AND HISTORY OF THE NORWEGIAN SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH FROM THE 1840s TO 1887 by Bjorgvin Martin Hjelvik Snorrason Adviser: Jerry Moon ABSTRACT OF GRADUATE STUDENT RESEARCH Dissertation Andrews University Seventh-day Adventist Theological Seminary Title: THE ORIGIN, DEVELOPMENT, AND HISTORY OF THE NORWEGIAN SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST CHURCH FROM THE 1840s TO 1887 Name of researcher: Bjorgvin Martin Hjelvik Snorrason Name and degree of faculty adviser: Jerry Moon, Ph.D. Date completed: July 2010 This dissertation reconstructs chronologically the history of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in Norway from the Haugian Pietist revival in the early 1800s to the establishment of the first Seventh-day Adventist Conference in Norway in 1887. The present study has been based as far as possible on primary sources such as protocols, letters, legal documents, and articles in journals, magazines, and newspapers from the nineteenth century. A contextual-comparative approach was employed to evaluate the objectivity of a given source. Secondary sources have also been consulted for interpretation and as corroborating evidence, especially when no primary sources were available. The study concludes that the Pietist revival ignited by the Norwegian Lutheran lay preacher, Hans Nielsen Hauge (1771-1824), represented the culmination of the sixteenth- century Reformation in Norway, and the forerunner of the Adventist movement in that country.

Stolt Tankers B.V. Stolt-Nielsen B.V. (Counsel Herman Steen Counsel Kaare Andreas Shetelig) v. A Line Corporation Trust Company Complex Marship MPP GmbH Co. KG (Counsel Kristian Lindhartsen Counsel Andreas Stang Lund) (1) Justice Normann: The case concerns the question whether Norwegian courts have jurisdiction in an action brought directly against a Norwegian P&I insurer after a collision in foreign waters between ships registered abroad. The proprietors and managing owners of both ships are foreign companies. It also raises the question of whether the claimants may include in their action against the insurer a claim against the proprietor and the managing owner of the ship that are allegedly liable for the collision. (2) On 16 December 2015, the cargo ship "Thorco Cloud" sank after colliding with the chemical carrier "Stolt Commitment" in Indonesian territorial waters in the Singapore Strait. Six crewmembers on "Thorco Cloud" died in the shipwreck. "Stolt Commitment" only suffered minor damage in the collision and was back in operation after the damage had been repaired. (3) "Thorco Cloud" is registered in Antigua & Barbuda. The proprietor is A Line Corporation Trust Company Complex – hereinafter A Line. A Line is a company registered on the Marshall Islands and is a subsidiary of the Danish shipowner Thorco Shipping AS. Managing shipowner at the time of the collision was Marship MPP GmbH Co.

  • Fact Sheet on "Political System of Norway"
    Legislative Council Secretariat FSC49/13-14 FACT SHEET Political system of Norway 1. Overview 1.1 Norway is a constitutional monarchy with a parliamentary democratic system of governance. The king is the head of state, while the Prime Minister is the head of government. According to the Constitution, the government structure consists of three branches, which are: (a) the Executive Branch, (b) the Legislative Branch (known as Stortinget which is a unicameral legislature established by the Constitution), and (c) the Judicial Branch. This fact sheet provides an overview of the three branches in Norway. 2. The monarchy 2.1 In Norway, the king has a tangible influence as the symbol of national unity. The current monarch is King Harald V who was crowned on 17 January 1991. In practice, the king performs largely ceremonial functions and is empowered to: (a) appoint the Ministers of the Council of State (the Cabinet); (b) preside over the Council of State; (c) sign acts into law and those acts shall be countersigned by the Prime Minister; (d) host official visits by foreign heads of state and pay state visits abroad; and (e) serve as the Commander-in-Chief. Research Office page 1 Legislative Council Secretariat FSC49/13-14 3. Executive Branch 3.1 Although the Constitution grants the important executive powers to the monarch, these are almost always exercised by the Council of State in the name of the king (i.e. King's Council). The Council of State consists of the Prime Minister and at least seven other Ministers. The current Prime Minister is Erna Solberg, the second woman to hold the position.

Juridisk bibliotek 2013 ISSN 1893-9686 (online) ISBN 978-82-8037-030-3 (online) Ansvarlig redaktør: Randi Halveg Iversby Forsidebilde: © UiO/Hanne Baadsgaard Utigard 1 Eldre norske rettskilder Forord Det juridiske fakultetsbibliotek i Oslo flyttet i 1994 inn i nyrestaurerte lokaler i Domus Bibliotheca. 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. Som et ekstra hjelpemiddel til å finne frem i dette materialet laget jeg en enkel oversikt til bruk for kolleger i biblioteket og for meg selv, som da var bibliotekar ved Institutt for offentlig rett, med spesielt ansvar for Rettshistorisk samling. I 2002 ble listen i bearbeidet versjon utgitt i serien Det juridiske fakultetsbibliotek skriftserie som nr 16. En revidert og utvidet utgave ble publisert som nettdokument i DUO i 2010. Det er en oppdatering av denne som nå utgis i bibliotekets nye skriftserie. Biblioteket har skiftet navn til Juridisk bibliotek, bibliotekets skriftserie har endret navn tilsvarende og heter nå Juridisk biblioteks skriftserie. Overbibliotekar Randi Halveg Iversby har overtatt hovedansvaret etter mangeårig redaktør Pål Bertnes.
