Personer som tillhör flera minoritetsgrupper tenderar att uppleva en speciell typ av diskriminering och utanförskap. Det är ett problem som uppmärksammats genom det så kallade intersektionella perspektivet. Detta perspektiv visar på att det finns en komplexitet i hur mänskliga rättigheter måste definieras för att det ska vara möjligt att främja jämlikhet oberoende av vilka grupper och hur många gr

Recent years have seen a rise in the role of communities in achieving the global goals of poverty alleviation alongside environmental protection. Simultaneously, it is increasingly recognised that communities are subject to power asymmetries resulting in differential abilities among community members to benefit from the sustainable management of natural resources. Striving to explore community- ba

With the rise from populism over the last few decades, one can observe an increase in the violent clashes connected to populists. However, this seems to be in coherence with the right-wing side mostly, because the left-wing side gets forgotten in the calculations over conflict together with populism. Therefore, the purpose of this thesis is to dive into a case study that is taking place in Venezue

This paper aims at investigating the polynomial relationship between income and income inequality as described by Kuznets (1955, 1963). In order to investigate this relationship, data for 35 European countries are used for the period 1980-2017 and a long-run relationship between these two variables is found, as the initial Kuznets curve hypothesis is. The results indicate, the existence of the Kuz

As terrorism after the 9/11 attacks has emerged as one of the most important threats to international security, the political discourse used by world leaders regarding the topic is becoming more and more essential to study. One way to do this is by using securitization theory, which helps us understand how something becomes a security issue, and how security threats are socially constructed throug

Behavior and social interactions are key features to determine the phenotype of an organism. Observing behavioral manifestations give insides on a fundamental level of how inner mechanisms work. But how is it possible to predict behavior in a way, such that it can be quantify and analyzed? One traditional strategy is to annotate the behavior by hand. Observing the animals and making notes about th

As climate change is a global threat it is of essence to understand how we can work against it. Research within the sphere of Peace and Conflict Studies lacks the perspective of the psychology behind world leaders as an explanation for how environmental policy is conducted. This thesis investigates what type of leader Obama and Trump are, what implications that has on environmental policy and how

How does domestic politics affect foreign aid? A great deal of literature that seeks to answer this question has sought to test the partisan theory. This theory suggests that ideological governmental changes will affect a donor country’s foreign aid – in terms of total aid, aid allocation and/or aid strategies. At the same time, there has been a scholarly tendency to understand aid from welfare st

In February 2020, two groups met in Kartapur, near the border of India and Pakistan, for the first time. The groups, Yes Fam India and Yes Fam Pakistan, are created in connection to the YouTube channel Yes Theory, and they share an active online community. The conflict between India and Pakistan has been active for over 70 years. Previous research suggests that there is a need to explore the possi

China’s approach and response to democratization in Hong Kong have since the city’s handover back in 1997 been somewhat of a rollercoaster-esque experience. The path towards democracy has for the people of Hong Kong remained an ongoing struggle for nearly 30 years, with recent developments arguably putting an end towards any hope of future realization. This study seeks to investigate and assess Be

Findings about the relationship between climate change and conflict has, since research on the topic started in the late 1990s, been inconclusive. A more recent statistical study has however concluded that drought might prolong conflict under certain conditions. To further our understanding of this relationship, this single-N case study has investigated these recent findings on an extreme case, wh
