Responses to combating worsening climate change are legitimized through narratives employed in government policy which build on existing master narratives about climate change produced in the subpolitics of international mega-science mainly influenced by IPCC as an expert authority. In Sweden the climate law forces the government to produce a Climate Policy Action Plan (CPAP) every four years that
To accelerate sustainable development and mitigate climate change, an increasing amount of finance is being mobilized for the deployment of renewable energy (RE) in developing countries from bilateral and multilateral donors and climate funds. Even though this trend is present in Mongolia, there is still a lack of knowledge about how effective these efforts have been for renewable energy developme
Extended producer responsibility (EPR) has been successfully implemented in various developed countries. The complex waste flows and the presence of the informal sector in non-OECD countries makes the execution of EPR challenging widely. The informal sector owing to its contribution to the waste management sector has been advocated for inclusion and recognition by researchers and practitioners. Th
Möllevången är en av de stadsdelar som i Polismyndighetens senaste trygghetsmätning avvek från den generella ökningen av upplevd trygghet bland Malmöinvånare. Stadsdelen har under de senare åren brottats med en lång rad vålds- och sexualbrott som har skett i den offentliga stadsmiljön. Denna studie ämnade därför till att försöka skapa medvetenhet kring hur kvinnors upplevelse av (o)trygghet ser ut
Redan för över ett århundrade sedan, i industrialiseringens vagga, funderade fysiker, kemister och naturvetenskapare på de eventuella konsekvenser de oreglerade utsläppen av fossila bränslen i atmosfären kunde få. Bland annat förutsåg man en framtida global uppvärmning. Nu har det gått många årtionden sedan vi fick svart på vitt att den globala uppvärmningen är ett faktum. Det råder överväldigande
This thesis analyses if and how the EU’s regulatory impact differs between policy areas in the High North. This question will be examined through the lens of the ‘regulatory power Europe’ framework, which is represented by Bradford’s interpretation of the Brussels Effect. This comparative study utilizes a mixedmethod approach scrutinizing quantitatively all applicable regulations in the Arctic as
This thesis seeks to investigate the connection between consumption and anticipated subjective wellbeing using the framework of Human Scale Development developed by Max Neef and colleagues (1991). The work intends to contribute to a wider discussion concerning the effects of a retracting economy on subjective wellbeing. The material was gathered by using deliberative forums, a method that is due l
This paper is focused on trying to answer the questions of how local political niche parties gain representation in the municipalities of Sweden. Could a lack of representation in a specific political question lead to the political advancement of a niche party? The main theory is based on the concept of “representation gap” and “voting behavior”. This theory is being tested against two alternative
The EU cohesion policy is a key policy area of the Union which aims for sustainable development and socioeconomic growth in the regions of the Member States. However, in the current structure of the multi-level governance system, the EU is much reliant on the capacity of the national public administrations to execute and implement the cohesion policy and thereby achieve the intended EU policy obje
On the 26th of August 2019 Karolin Hakim was executed. Newspapers quickly established that she fell victim to the organized crime in Malmö. Later the same year, a fifteen-year-old boy died in a shooting outside a restaurant in the same city. These events contributed to the launching of multiple operations within the Swedish police department. The situation in Malmö led to significant news coverage
This study is about the causal-relationship between the rise of far-right political parties and their effect on the public perception or opinion of the EU, based on a case study of empirical analysis of public opinion surveys. The focus of the study is to identify the causal-relationship between the rise and growth of far-right political parties in EU member states and their effect on the public’s
The struggle of power between politicians and civil servants in relation to introduction of different administrative reforms have always been a hot topic, specifically in issues to do with delegation of administrative autonomy from a political to administrative level. Advocates of administrative autonomy argue that administrative autonomy is a good administrative reform that spikes performance, tr
Trots att Sverigedemokraterna anklagas från flera håll för att driva en diskriminerande politik har väljarstödet fortsatt öka sen de kom in i riksdagen 2010. En diskursanalytisk teori påvisar hur högerpopulistiska partier använder sig av en kalkylerad ambivalens för att kommunicera dubbla budskap till sina åhörare. De dubbla budskapen kan bidra till att stärka en positiv bild av en grupp som vi oc
