The global climate change negotiations are experiencing a rescaling of international actors. Several of these actors are scientific communities that aim at providing policy recommendations based on expert knowledge for the negotiations. The literature within the science-policy nexus is applied to investigate the significance of expert communities however the literature does not target environmenta
This thesis explores the interlinking of evaluation and development through an anthropological lens by considering the indigenization process of an evaluation culture, and how evaluation travels across boundaries as an assemblage, similar to many other global phenomena. Central to the thesis is the national evaluation capacity building trend viewed as a two-sided project; first as internal capacit
This purpose of this thesis is to get a further understanding of what Swedish feminist foreign policy constitutes through a critical discourse analysis. By using gender mainstreaming strategies and feminist IR-theories as a theoretical framework for analysis, key aspects from these approaches are examined within the Swedish feminist foreign policy. This thesis mainly focuses on how the concepts of
This thesis aims to investigate the relationship between public participation and self-segregation. The Delegation for Sustainable Cities (2012) argue that it is problematic that measures against segregation often are project-based, with a unilateral focus on socioeconomic weak areas. The strong opposition that urban planners meet when implying efforts against segregation in socioeconomically stro
This master’s thesis examines the motives of non-aligned, geographically peripheral and smaller European Union (EU) Member States (MS) Finland, Sweden and Ireland to participate in EU military crisis management operations. It also studies the effects that these MS have had in the development of the Common Security and Defence Policy (CSDP). Theoretically this thesis is based on a typology that Aly
Lathund för inventering. Ökade utsläpp av växthusgaser är idag ett stort problem då det bidrar till klimatförändringar som t.ex. mer frekventa översvämningar och stormar. I uppsatsen granskas en lathund om inventering av växthusgaser i en kommun som Klimatkommunerna har arbetat fram. Klimatkommunerna är en förening som jobbar med att minska växthusgasutsläppen i Sverige genom att bl.a. ta fram kliA raising amount of greenhouse gases in the air that affects the nature and cause more frequent flooding and storms are a problem that we are struggling with today. The Swedish government are working on saving the nature by decreasing the greenhouse gases in the air. “Klimatkommunerna” is a society that tries to solve this problem by working on helping municipalities to make climate-strategies, wh
This thesis investigates how gender equality is represented in the regional development policy in Swedish region Skåne. Drawing from a discursive perspective it sees policy as a process in which both problems and solutions are given shape. A method for policy analysis developed by political scientist Carol Bacchi; “What’s the problem represented to be?” is used in the analysis. The method is suppl
This thesis examines the effects of South Africa’s electricity crisis on the government-driven development of renewable energy from 2007 to 2023 by testing the applicability of the energy security framework. The electricity crisis presents itself through regular electricity cuts, extreme power tariff rises and a lack of long-term sustainability due to the high reliance on coal and Eskom, the monop
This thesis explores the structural power dynamics and agency within WWF's Leading the Change (LtC) program, focusing mainly on its implementation in Kenya. By analyzing how the institutional structure within the program influences decision-making and how the practical implementation either facilitates or impedes inclusion and the representation of stakeholders, the study employs the framework
This thesis examines the asymmetries between the European Union’s approach to climate justice through the Loss and Damage mechanism and its engagement with cultural restitution. It aims to determine whether and why the EU applies principles of justice differently in these two areas and whether the principles around cultural restitution can inform a more equitable climate justice agenda. With
Development aid is distributed globally to fight the growing inequalities and challenges faced by the world’s poorest. Despite its altruistic connotations, questions have been raised of whether aid always contributes to positive change, with increasing criticism of its usage for the donors’ egoistic motives. Security is one donor motive that has been researched by scholars seeking to better unders
This thesis analyzes the legal challenges of inheritances within Colombia’s tax treaty network, specifically addressing the asymmetrical tax coverage that arises when Colombia applies Double Taxation Conventions on Income and Capital to cross-border inheritances. The core research question is whether inheritance taxes can be covered by the OECD Model Tax Convention on Income and Capital, as interp
Strategic University-Industry Collaborations (UICs) are vital for innovation, yet evaluating their multifaceted outcomes presents a significant challenge. This thesis addresses this gap by investigating performance measurement in UICs through an in-depth case study of the long-standing strategic partnership between Tetra Pak and Lund University. By employing a qualitative methodology, incorporatin
The third round of NDCs were due to be released in the lead up to COP30 in November 2025, with parties to the Paris Agreement set to detail commitments to more ambitious emissions reductions. The content of past NDCs have differed greatly depending on which country is submitting the document, especially in how well gender is integrated across actions for NDC implementation. Previous studies show t
HYBRIT is often presented as a flagship project in Sweden’s transition to fossil-free industry, but its implementation depends on systems that the project itself does not control: electricity supply, transport infrastructure, and environmental permitting. This thesis examines how the Swedish state identifies and responds to structural tensions in the implementation of HYBRIT and fossil-free steel
