Mapping fine-scale urban housing prices by fusing remotely sensed imagery and social media data

The accurate mapping of urban housing prices at a fine scale is essential to policymaking and urban studies, such as adjusting economic factors and determining reasonable levels of residential subsidies. Previous studies focus mainly on housing price analysis at a macro scale, without fine-scale study due to a lack of available data and effective models. By integrating a convolutional neural netwo

Taiwan’s Battle of Recognition: An analysis of the withdrawal of state recognition in practice

Since 2016, seven countries have withdrawn its recognition of Taiwan which have left the contested state with only fifteen diplomatic allies. Consequently, this affects the democracy of 23 million people, and minimizes Taiwan’s ability and cooperation in the global world. The problem derives from when Tsai Ing-wen, the current president of Taiwan and the pro-independence Democratic Progressive Par

The relationship between long-term orientation and strategic decision making processes among top managers in Southern Sweden: A follow-up study to Lin, Shi, Prescott, and Yang (2018)

While previous research suggests that top managers’ long-term orientation is related to their strategic decision making processes, few studies have investigated this relationship in a Western cultural context. Therefor, the aim of the current thesis is to investigate the relationship between long-term orientation and strategic decision making processes, specifically, decision comprehensiveness, de

Unpacking Lunch: Political Ecology & The Meat Industrial Complex

This paper highlights, theoretically and empirically, how development and underdevelopment are closely linked by looking at the global food system, with a special emphasis on the meat-industrial complex. Conceptually, this thesis mobilizes Foster’s theory of metabolic rift, O’Connor’s theory of the second contradiction of capitalism, and Harvey’s “accumulation by dispossession” to account for the

FUELING CONFLICTS IN NORTHEAST ASIA : AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN ENERGY AND CONFLICT

The Purpose of this study was to determine what affects, if any exist, crude oil and natural gas supply and demand has on the international relations of Northeast Asia. This was done by answering the research question: does the need to for energy security override the desire to maintain the status quo regarding national policy toward controversial issues facing Northeast Asia. The study uses the t

Envisioned, enacted & stated practices: ‘Creativity’/’innovation’ and the social-political ecosystem of teaching

Ethnographic (and other) studies on teachers often rely on two kinds of material: observations of teaching practices in the classroom; and statements about teaching practices, extracted both from involved actors (e.g. teacher interviews) and from documents (e.g. educational policy documents or teaching manuals). Many scholars agree that there is a discrepancy between what is stated, or desired, pr

European industrial policy and state aid – a competence mismatch?

The European Union (EU) has been entrusted with rather weak powers as regards industrial policy. On top of this, its Member States are prevented from pursuing a national industrial policy with monetary elements as this may distort competition within the EU internal market. At the same time, European companies compete in the global market with state-supported companies from other economically stron

Introduction

The End of History was the title of Francis Fukuyama’s book (Fukuyama 1992), suggesting that with the demise of communism in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe after the Berlin Wall, the consequence was that The Market had come out victorious after the Cold War, and now there was only one way ahead, and the savior capitalism would relentlessly lead to democracy. Now we know that this is not the c

Biogeophysical impact of land‐use scenarios on Holocene surface temperatures

Reconstructions and simulations disagree on whether the Holocene exhibited a long-term cooling or warming signal. Anthropogenic land-use could be an important forcing regionally, but available population-based estimates differ widely. We examine transient Holocene climate model simulations forced with three population-based disturbed-land reconstructions and compare this with a fourth scenario der
