Summary
This book would not have been possible without the generous funding from the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsrådet), which has financed the research. During the project, I have also received assistance from a number of people. First of all, many thanks to Professor Iain Cameron and Professor Magnus Ulv ä ng who gave valuable commentaries and other support to my application for funding. The research environment of Uppsala University is very inspiring, and special gratitude goes to the participants of the research seminar organised by Magnus Ulv ä ng at the Law Faculty, where I was able to present and discuss my subject. When in Uppsala, I am always spoilt by the generous support of Professor Nils Jareborg.
I would further like to thank the following experts for help in various ways, for example by answering my questions relating to the European Union and confiscation: Hans G. Nilsson, Guy Stessens, Steven Cras and Sebastiano Tiné. At a seminar at the Prosecution Development Centre in Stockholm, I was able to discuss financial investigations and confiscation practice. Many thanks go to the participants and to the Deputy Director of Public Prosecution Ewa Nyhult, who organised the seminar. Words of thanks are also due to Chief Prosecutor Eva Thunegard, who has assisted me with materials relating to the confiscation practice of the prosecuting offices.
And finally, as always, I am proud and grateful to be a part of such a great and loving family: Maximilian, Emma, Nicholas, Alexander and the rest of the big Thunberg-Schunke clan.
