This bachelor thesis uses the case of a double land allocation agreement on the Swedish island of Gotland and asks to what degree neoliberal planning is present when using the policy instrument. The main theoretical framework used was that of David Harvey(2005), on the manifestation of neoliberal policies. His framework puts forth four main ways in which neoliberal policies are manifested. In orde
This thesis examines the impact of shareholder activism on the annual stock returns of targeted companies. Utilizing a dataset of activist campaigns from the FactSet SharkWatch 50 database, covering the period from 2005 to 2021, we investigate whether the presence of activist investors leads to enhanced stock performance. Our empirical analysis, employing an event study design, reveals a significa
With the growing importance of high-yield bonds, understanding the factors that predominantly drive credit risk in this asset class is essential. This thesis investigates the relationship between credit spreads and leverage for high-yield bonds. Using two fixed effects models on quarterly data between 2021 and 2024, this study analyses whether there exists a non-linear relationship between changes

The aim of this research study was to examine the connection between motivation to lead and its antecedents – general and leadership self-efficacy, career anchors, and leadership experience. We also wanted to examine how the antecedent variables will make a significant contribution to the explanation of motivation to lead and its dimensions of affective identity, social normative, and noncalculati
Promoting reading through book clubs in academic libraries is a relatively new phenomenon in Sweden, despite the Swedish Library Act mandating that all pub-licly funded libraries should "promote the position of literature" (SFS 2013:801). In the Swedish context, there is limited research on reading promotion in aca-demic libraries. Internationally, some studies exist, but few employ a ca
The relationship between commodities and the stock market is commonly discussed. We will investigate the non-linear Granger causality between the stock market, gold, oil and wheat prices. To do this we have conducted a non-linearity test for the bivariate VAR models in the form of the BDS-test which showed that the models are misspecified and non-linear. We found that oil non-linear Granger causes

Den svenska bostadsmarknaden präglas av en bostadsbristsituation, en situation som enligt Boverket förvärrats av omvärldshändelser som covid-19 och kriget i Ukraina. Det är i denna kontext intressant att undersöka orsaken och implikationerna av observerade skillnader i belåningsgrad och marknadsvärdestillväxt mellan kommunala bostadsbolag och privata fastighetsbolag. Syftet med arbetet är att unIn Sweden it has for many years been the common understanding that there is a shortage of housing on the housing market, a situation that according to Boverket has been further worsened by recent world events such as the Covid-19 pandemic and the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine. In this context it was interesting to study the cause of and implications of observed differences in the grow
Climate observations show that Serbia has been experiencing an increase in mean temperatures and frequency of heatwaves, in part due to its high population growth and unsustainable urbanisation. The goal of this research was to establish the heatwave level of vulnerability in Belgrade municipalities and determine citizens' adaptive capacities. The MOVE framework was used to determine vulnerabi
Combined mobility has increasingly been promoted as a way to use the combined strengths of cycling and public transport to enable sustainable mobility patterns. In the Greater Stockholm Area, combined mobility has worked its way into strategic regional policy documents. This study, departing from a collaborative planning perspective, uses qualitative methods to investigate how key actors in the St
Detta arbete syftade till att undersöka hur antalet mikroorganismer i en surdeg förändras beroende på vilket spannmål den förnyas med, och om odlingsmetoden av spannmålet har en inverkan. Vidare undersöktes surdegarnas inverkan på bröds bakegenskaper. Undersökningen skedde på två olika surdegar, en som var industriellt tillverkad och en som var spontanjäst. Arbetet delades upp i två delar. Först
This thesis discusses how self-preferential behaviour of Internet platforms is regulated in the EU and China under the competition law framework. The purpose of the study is to compare the strategies and practices of these two jurisdictions in terms of legislation and enforcement in order to answer the following research questions: what are the limits on self- preferential behaviour of Internet pl
The European Union has recognised the potential of data for its data economy, fostering innovation, driving competition and enhancing transparency. To fully utilise its potential, enabling access to data is crucial. The objective of the Regulation (EU) 2023/2854 on harmonised rules on fair access to and use of data (Data Act) is to provide new possibilities for accessing and re-using information.
Just like many former colonies gaining independence, the small island state of Mauritius emphasised certain elements of its history to shape a collective identity as part of its nation-building process. This construction of the collective memory involves instances of both collective remembering and forgetting. Certain traumas are chosen to be remembered while others are silenced with the risk of b
Chat GPT was launched in November 2022 and has by some been described as just as big and important as the launch of the internet or the personal computer. Trying to describe Chat GPTs main use is not easy. It can help you with your programming, write music or plan a dinner. But its main purpose is not to be a friend, a partner or a therapist. Yet it is used as one. People using artificial intellig
This thesis explores the role of Emissions Trading Systems (ETS) in achieving climate neutrality, with a focus on a comparative study between the European Union (EU) and China. The background also emphasizes the global climate change issues in the past years and the use of ETS as an effective market-based carbon pricing tool for limiting the emission of greenhouse gases. The aim of this research i
When creating finite element simulations, fasteners are often simplified or disregarded even though they are exposed to large loads and are reasons to cause failure in the model. Aimpoint AB produces electronic red dot sights that are exposed to high accelerations of at least 400G. The aim of this degree project is divided into two parts: develop and evaluate a test methodology for measuring strai
