The textile industry, dominated by fast fashion, has caused significant environmental and social harm. Its complex global long supply chains, spanning multiple countries and production steps, increases the challenges related to traceability, transparency, and accountability. To address these issues, the European Union has introduced the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), which w

The 'rule of law crises' in Hungary and Poland have shown weaknesses in the European Union’s system of enforcing the values enshrined in Article 2 TEU after accession. Especially Article 7 TEU as well as the other enforcement procedures have proven to be incapable of forcing Member States back into compliance with the values enshrined in Article 2 TEU so far. However, this thesis contests

The increasing pressure of climate change urges state leaders to transform economies to low-carbon alternatives on a local, national and global scale. The aim of this study is to analyze how effective the Climate-Resilient Green Economy (CRGE) strategy has been so far in fostering inclusive rural development in the agricultural sector in Ethiopia, by applying a Triple-Bottom-Line (TBL) approach th

The Santa María Bay (SMB), in Sinaloa, México, is the largest bay in the state and is highly productive in terms of fishing and the economic activities derived from it.

This thesis examines if the amount of labour intensity within a sector changes the effect that the real effective exchange rate have on output. Fixed panel data regressions for Sweden, Norway and Denmark lend support to the hypothesis that labour intensive sectors’ output react more to changes in the real exchange rate than its less labour intensive counterparts. The regressions show that the labo

The European Union’s sustainability reporting framework, which includes the CSRD and the CSDDD, is widely regarded as a logical progression toward achieving the 2050 climate goals. The EU has faced criticism regarding the sustainability reporting directives, primarily due to concerns over the EU’s global competitiveness and the readiness of undertakings to comply. Consequently, there have been inc

In recent decades, however, an ideology characterized by social inclusion and autonomy has emerged where the key element has been to make individuals with mental health problems a part of the community rather than to screen them from the rest of society. This essay analyzes the work of five community-based ser

Board gaming has to a large degree, been studied based on historical sources. Ironically, this is true even for prehistoric games, where the Icelandic sagas have been used as a starting point for a deductive hunt for the mysterious game Hnefatafl. Later studies of gaming have to a large extent been transferring older research results. According to the author, this has created a rather skewed pictu
