This thesis investigates why tariffs, once the backbone of U.S. federal revenue, cannot replace income taxes as the primary revenue source in the modern American economy. Using a systematic literature review and secondary data analysis approach, the study contrasts the structural conditions of the pre-1913 tariff regime, characterized by a goods-dominated economy and minimal federal spending, with
This thesis focuses on the impact of the European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR, the Court) on the legal recognition of same-sex couples in Eastern Europe. It examines how the Court’s current remedial approach influences change in national legislation, policies, and broader social attitudes, in contexts where queer rights remain politically contested and structurally excluded. This study is importa
Cold attics are a common element present in the Swedish residential building stock. They are known to be prone to mould problems due to their low ventilation and are one of the main channels through which buildings lose heat. One of the strategies that can help solve cold attic problems and at the same time contribute to solving the housing crisis is their conversion into habitable spaces. This re
The demand for biofuels is increasing as a result of increased climate mitigation ambitions aiming to replace the use of fossil fuels. To meet the increasing demand, energy crops grown on agricultural land used to produce biofuels is getting more and more attention. Since agricultural land is a scarce resource, conflicts can arise between food production and biomass for biofuels, making it essenti
The annual plastic production was over 400 million tonnes in 2023 and it is expected to keep growing over the years. The increasing use of fossil-based materials and problems regarding the environmental impact of plastic waste motivate the transition towards a circular economy. Interest in 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) has increased due to the possibility of being a biobased building block in the
Industrial pollution abatement is key to accomplishing sustainability goals. Mandatory disclosure of pollution data, e.g. through the European Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (E-PRTR), promises reducing pollution through public pressure from stakeholders, such as NGOs, the media, and investors. This study surveys stakeholder use of the E-PRTR in Germany, using an analysis of press coverage
The thesis is proposing a method to perceive the cinematic space as a body in motion. The foundation for such an experimental method is traced within the investigation of the movement in the study of the motion picture, as well as in a phenomenological approach to dance, and in selected theories from the continental philosophy of the 20th century. In doing so, the paper aims to widen, examine and
Business Intelligence has been growing fast the last two decades and more organizations are seeing a need of BI software to analyse data and make fast and accurate decisions. Public sector and municipalities have also adapted to this trend and implemented BI in their organizations. It is claimed that public sector tends to be slower and more resistant when adapting new technology. The purpose of t
Around 20% of all people worldwide (1.5 billion) do not have an official and legally recognized document as proof of their identity. This affect, for example, their right to vote, to open a bank account, obtain formal employment or seek legal compensation. In other words, their lack of proof for their legal existence excludes them from participating in society on all various levels. This was ackno
Nepal has long been recognized as a multi-cultural country with a diverse geographical area. Despite its natural beauty, Nepal is plagued by a number of social issues. Violence against women has always been an issue, exacerbated by patriarchal cultures. Several development organisations are trying to alleviate the situation. The aim of this research is to decide how development organisations integ
By using a decomposition method of LMDI, this paper identifies the drivers behind the changes of the CO2 emissions level in Denmark between 1980 and 2012. By looking at four driving factors such as activity effect, structural change, technological change and CO2 emissions intensity, enables the study to find what drives and impact the changes in CO2 emissions in each sector and thereby also in the
This thesis analyses a new trade union model for umbrella company workers and the changes in the field of trade unions in Sweden. By conceptualizing trade unions as collective actors within strategic action fields I describe and explain how a small independent trade union and challenger in the field, Säljarnas Riksförbund, has managed to construct a new trade union model for umbrella company worke
How audiences engage with news has not always gotten a lot of attention in academic and industry research; and, even then, it is often studied in terms of exposure and interaction. This does not fully capture the dynamism and multidimensionality of this phenomenon; and industry attempts to apply market principles to engagement risks depoliticizing and reducing it to economic values. Rather than po

The idea that increasing immigration will lead to a growing Muslim presence in Western Europe and that this in turn stands in contrast to the secularity of these states frames the context of this study. Therefore, this thesis explores the experiences of religious Muslims in the secular Swedish society. Potential problems between the religious Muslim minority and secular Swedish majority have been
Friluftsliv, Swedish for outdoor recreation, is a relevant concept for sustainable development, yet as a political objective, friluftsliv is struggling to gain a foothold in Swedish public policymaking. To generate knowledge of how friluftsliv is used in policymaking, and to address the growing demand for friluftsliv by the public, I explore visions of friluftsliv as articulated in the Swedish Par
