This paper investigates the reasons to why the size of welfare systems varies among countries. The main contribution is that, contrary to most other papers on the topic, developing countries have been included in the analysis. Drawing on cross-sectional data from 85 countries my main conclusion is that ethnic fragmentation has a significant negative impact on the size of welfare systems, as propos

The aim of this study is to hermeneutically understand and critically assess manifestations and impacts of certain aspects of the phenomenon of patriarchal gender norms. Seeing that gender norms are the sustaining component of the greater and oppressing gender system of patriarchy, this study is relevant in relation to the broader analysis and understanding of patriarchy and its influences.

This article explores the rationales through which teenage students make sense of and legitimise unpaid labour in low-wage service jobs, contributing to theorising how such exploitation becomes normalised as part of their working lives. Based on 40 in-depth interviews with working school students in Sweden, it focuses on experiences of wage theft and coercive extra shifts, understood as employer s

Skocpol’s States and Social Revolutions, first published in 1979, was a hugely influential book encapsulating what has become known as the “Third Generation” of theories of revolution. In it, she argues that “revolutions are not made, they come” (Skocpol, 1979, 17), insisting that structural factors such as pre-revolutionary social structure and state breakdown were primarily responsible for the o

With this research I have answered the twofold question of how Cuba played a part in the making of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and what differences and similarities that can be found between the Cuban draft of Human Rights versus the final product of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Since there is no previous research in this field I have chosen to look at some of the most

The increase in contact resistance within battery systems remains poorly understood, despite being one of the primary contributors to battery degradation. This project aims to investigate this phenomenon by modeling the electrical interface as a contact between a pin and a busbar. The main goal is to build a DOE and machine learning framework, using Bayesian optimization to efficiently explore the

This bachelor thesis uses firm registration and unemployment data to see if unemployment has an impact on the rate at which firms are formed in Swedish regions in the years 2005-2023. This is done through econometric modelling, namely a linear regression model with region and time specific effects. The results show that there indeed is a relationship between unemployment and firm formation, and sh

The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1848) can be read as a protofeminist text and a radical novel for its time, as it confronted the lack of maternal rights and protection for children. In this paper I discuss the portrayal of motherhood, and the factors that empower and restrict Helen. Using Sarah Lewis´s Woman´s Mission (1839) and her contemporary views of maternal duty, this paper explores the complex

This thesis explores the dynamics of youths’ contributions in the ecotourism sector in the indigenous village San José de Uchupiamonas, located in the Bolivian Amazon. It examines the contributions that the youths of the community make to ecotourism. It also explores what knowledge they have gained from the sector, as well as how they perceive ecotourism to have influenced their culture. Through a

Situated in the ambiguous position as agents of both care and control, train hosts find themselves constantly engaging in balancing acts related to their professional role as frontline workers. This dynamic is especially relevant in cross-border regions where train hosts arguably assume the role of unofficial border agents. This thesis explores the professional practices and personal dispositions

Among adult brain cancers, glioblastoma (GBM) stands out for its frequency and severity, characterized by rapid progression and poor prognosis. Gabapentin, a gabapentinoid widely prescribed for managing neurological conditions such as neuropathic pain and seizures, has been proposed to influence tumor-neural interactions and modulates glioblastoma outcomes. This study used real-world clinical data

Social housing in Ireland has undergone several phases of transformation, including financial restructuring in the 1980s and severe retrenchment during the years of post-crash austerity. Concurrently, the overall housing sector has been defined by several ‘boom and bust’ crisis phases and is currently experiencing a housing crisis characterised by increasingly inflated property and rental prices,

This master’s thesis explores municipal and civil society refugee support practices in Berlin and Brandenburg, Germany during the current crisis of insecurity. Centering the question of how local-level support can oppose an excluding global precarization of refugees, the thesis works with an experiential puzzle to explore the subjective views of civil society and municipal actors in the realm of m
