EU State Aid Policy: Concealed Transfer of Competences?

This chapter concerns the role of competition policy, and in particular EU State aid rules, in the European integration process. The Treaty of the Functioning of the European Union contains a ban on State aid. However, this ban is not without exceptions. Through a centralized system, there is scope for exceptions in many policy areas. This also applies to areas where the member states are reluctan

Monte Carlo modeling of globular star clusters: many primordial binaries and IMBH formation

We will discuss the evolution of star clusters with a large initial binary fraction, up to 95%. The initial binary population is chosen to follow the invariant orbital-parameter distributions suggested by Kroupa (1995). The Monte Carlo MOCCA simulations of star cluster evolution are compared to the observations of Milone et al. (2012) for photometric binaries. It is demonstrated that the observed

MOCCA-SURVEY Database I: Assessing GW kick retention fractions for BH-BH mergers in globular clusters

Anisotropy of gravitational wave (GW) emission results in a net momentum gained by the black hole (BH) merger product, leading to a recoil velocity up to ∼103 km s−1, which may kick it out of a globular cluster (GC). We estimate GW kick retention fractions of merger products assuming different models for BH spin magnitude and orientation. We check how they depend on BH–BH merger time and propertie

No home for poor men : a comparative study of household debt and homeownership in Denmark and Turkey

Homeownership rates have declined in several countries including Denmark and Turkey since 2010. A majority of the decline in homeownership has been observed among low income holders. This variation finding comparative case study compares similar patterns of neoliberal housing policies to examine wealth inequalities based on homeownership despite fundamental differences in housing markets and welfa

"Den förbjudna frukten har mognat" : En studie av rapporteringen kring Rysslands livsmedelsembargo i en rysk dagstidning

The purpose of this thesis is to explore how the consequences of Russias food embargo on the EU, USA, Canada, Australia and Norway from 2014 is depicted in the government owned newpaper Rossiyskaya Gazeta. This is done by means of a qualitative textual analysis according to professors Lennart Hellspong and Per Ledin, complemented by Russian linguistic research. The analysis is executed with a focu

Alfavärdens stabilitet - En undersökning om alfavärdens hållbarhet över en längre tidsperiod

This study aims to contribute to solving the mystery associated with smart investment strategies. It seems impossible to find an extraordinary investment strategy that can outperform the usual returns on the market. Including 116 stocks from Stockholmsbörsens large and mid cap, this study examines if alpha values are stable over time, and if so an investment in a portfolio based on high alpha valu
