Indian judiciary relies on various criminal ... -
Protecting the marine environment from the impacts of climate change: A regime interaction study
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-12-16)As the oceans are heavily impacted by climate change, effective regulatory responses are needed to mitigate, as well as to adapt to, these adverse effects. Problematically, however, neither the international climate change regime nor the international law of the sea specifically addresses the adverse effects of climate change on the oceans. This article analyses the interactions between these regimes, ... -
Rationale for the ASSAIL-MI-trial: a randomised controlled trial designed to assess the effect of tocilizumab on myocardial salvage in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-15)<i>Introduction</i>: Interleukin-6 (IL-6) may be involved in ischaemia-reperfusion injury and myocardial remodelling after myocardial infarction (MI). We have recently shown that IL-6 inhibition by tocilizumab attenuates systemic inflammation and troponin T-release in patients with acute non-ST elevation MI (NSTEMI). Experimental studies suggest that IL-6 inhibition can limit infarct size through ... -
Recalcitrant Materialities of a Liminal Ocean: Deconstructing the ‘Arctic Nomos’
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-02-23)Published in 1950, Carl Schmitt’s Nomos of the Earth has been one of the most influential contributions in legal theory, illustrating inter alia the territorial conceptualization of the Eurocentric global legal order. While the Earth’s nomos has been largely hinged on the constructed ontology of a land-sea dichotomy and the appropriation and division of space through the establishment of sovereignty ... -
Reduced brain-derived neurotrophic factor is associated with childhood trauma experiences and number of depressive episodes in severe mental disorders
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-08-17)<p><i>Background - </i>Although several studies have found reduced plasma BDNF levels in patients with severe mental disorders, the sample sizes have been small and have exhibited variation and heterogeneity. Furthermore, long-term neurobiological changes following childhood trauma and clinical severity have been linked to a reduction in BDNF levels. Accordingly, we aim to clarify, using the largest ... -
Reflecting on the Role of the Arctic Council vis-à-vis a Future International Legally Binding Instrument on Biodiversity in Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-12-09)Negotiations are ongoing to develop an international legally binding instrument (ILBI) under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) on the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction (BBNJ). If adopted, the ILBI will likely apply to parts of the Arctic Ocean where the Arctic Council has played an important role for ocean ... -

Regional Oceans Governance. Making Regional Seas Programmes, Regional Fishery Bodies and Large Marine Ecosystem Mechanisms Work Better Together
(Research report; Forskningsrapport, 2016)Oceans are of vital importance to the international community, not only for their living and non-living resources and the shipping and other maritime uses they facilitate, but also for the key role they play in the global climate and weather system. The marine environment, its resources, and its biodiversity are increasing threatened by human activities, both maritime and terrestrial. Anthropogenic ... -
Reglene om tilbakeføring av råderett i internasjonal og nasjonal urfolksrett
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-10-04)Internasjonal rett innehar regler om tilbakeføring av landområder som urfolk har mistet råde-retten over, ofte omtalt som reglene om restitusjon. Det hersker imidlertid uklarhet om reglenes innhold, både internasjonalt og nasjonalt. I denne artikkelen drøftes tilbakeføringsreglenes inn-hold og rekkevidde. Det synliggjøres at reglene kan ha betydning der majoritetssamfunnets myndighetsutøvelse og ... -

Reindrift og jordskiftelovgivningen
(Peer reviewed; Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2007)I 1996 ble jordskifteloven utvidet til å omfatte reindrift. I løpet av de drøye 10 år loven har vært virksom, har det kun blitt gjennomført tre saker. Det må således kunne sies at loven ikke har oppfylt lovgivers intensjon om å bli en «problemløser» i forhold mellom reindrift og jordbruk. I denne artikkelen blir det påpekt sider ved lovgivningen som etter forfatterens mening bør lede til at spørsmålet ... -
Reindriftssamenes bruksretter og jordskifterettens saklige kompetanse
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2007)I artikkelen blir det undersøkt hvordan rettsutviklingen har påvirket reindriftssamenes adgang til å være part i jordskifte. I forarbeidet til lov nr. 8/1996 om endringer i reindriftsloven, jordskifteloven og viltloven, ble det uttalt at reindriftssamenes bruksrettigheter var av ”en slik karakter at de må ansees å falle utenfor jordskiftelovens bruksrettsbegrep.” Således kunne ikke slike bruksrettigheter ...
