Fairtrade has become a familiar trademark for most consumers in the developed world and represents an option for the buyer to purchase a product that has been certified to follow the ethical standards of ”fair” trade. This branding has received much critique over the last years concerning Fairtrade's ability to improve the lives of small producers in the developing world. This thesis derives f
Sammanfattning En stor del av svensk handel går ut på att distribuera och sälja varor. Ett företag kan välja att distribuera varor självt, alternativt ingå samarbete med annan part. För en part som funderar på att distribuera varor genom samarbete finns det många alternativ att välja på och följaktligen måste en part fundera över och ta ställning till olika för- och nackdelar, exempelvis vilken koSummary A significant part of Swedish trade involves distributing and selling goods. A company may choose to manage distribution of goods by himself or enter a partnership. A party who consider distribute goods through cooperation must count on various factors, such as desired control of the various market-ing stages, own and the other party resources, conditions in the specific market and risk sh
Contributing to analyses of housing welfare and inequality, this article examines how the territorial circumscription of asset-based welfare policies impact the pattern and trajectory of residential inequality in situ. We look to France, which since the 2000s has used asset-based welfare policies as a tool for rebalancing local territorial cohesion throughout the country. These policies, which onc
We show how the endowment effect can be interpreted in terms of ambiguity aversion. Agents take status quo as their reference point, relative to which they evaluate potential trades. The value of exchanged goods is ambiguous, represented by a set of probability distributions over possible values. Agents are ambiguity averse, modeled as maxmin expected utility maximisers. This characteristic leads
The aim of this thesis was to investigate if stock recommendations published by financial analysts make a valuable contribution to price discovery on the Swedish stock market. This was achieved by examining the abnormal returns for two time windows, the surrounding days of published recommendations and the next two weeks after publication. The complete data sample consisted of the 30 companies wit
This paper analyzes the existence of market power on the Nordic electricity market between 2018-2022, and if the energy market turbulence caused by covid-19, and later deepened following the war in Ukraine affected producers' bidding behavior. Market power was tested using Cournot assumptions to see if producers withheld output strategically when demand was more inelastic. Auction data on syst
BackgroundDigital applications that automatically extract information from electronic medical records and provide comparative visualizations of the data in the form of quality indicators to primary care practices may facilitate local quality improvement (QI). A necessary condition for such QI to work is that practices actively access the data. The purpose of this study was to explore the use of an
Background: Around 95% of all websites selling medicines globally are illegal and contribute to the spread of substandard and falsified medicines. Hence, it is important to identify legal pharmacies when accessing medicines online. During 2022-2024, 250 million prescriptions were legally dispensed in Sweden, and 69% were prescribed in primary care. Pharmacists and general practitioners are key hea

Very little if any previous research has been done on the potential predictability of bear and bull regimes in the Swedish stock market. In this study my aim is to predict OMXS30 bull and bear regimes with dynamic binary time series models. After using a nonparametric approach to identify the regimes of bull and bear periods in the market I looked at both an in sample and out of sample test. Based

Bostadsmarknaden har genomgått flertal förändringar sedan 1990-talet och haft en positiv trend under 2000-talet. De senaste åren har marknaden för nyproducerade bostadsrätter förändrats på grund av kreditrestriktionerna som införts. Fastighetsutvecklare har svårare att hitta köpare som är villiga att teckna bindande förhandsavtal och det råder en viss osäkerhet på marknaden för nyproducerade bostaThe housing market in Sweden has had a positive trend since the 1990s. In recent years, the market for newly produced condominiums has changed due to credit restrictions enforced by new legislation. To sell condominiums for new production, binding preliminary contracts (in Swedish: förhandsavtal) and special tenure contracts (in Swedish: Upplåtelseavtal) are used. In those contracts the seller und
Based on repeated surveys of the vascular plant flora in 120 hectar plots in the province of Scania, southern-most Sweden, and analyses based on species-specific traits and ecological indicator values, it is concluded that significant changes have taken place 2018–2020 but that they probably mostly reflect the effects of the extremely dry and hot summer of 2018. Species richness has increased sign
This paper explores the situation when tenants in public houses, in a specific neighborhood, are given the legislated right to buy the houses they live in but can choose to remain in their houses and pay the regulated rent. This type of legislation has been passed in many European countries in the last 30-35 years (U.K. Housing Act 1980 is a leading example). The main objective with this type of l
This thesis examines the emerging issue of Webcam Child Prostitution (WCP) that has so far only been observed in the Philippines. Utilising a qualitative approach, the authors conducted a series of interviews with law enforcement and civil society, as well as survivors of the crime and two focus groups in a low-income neighbourhood in Manila. The data collected is analysed through a critical theor
A change is happening on today’s art market. Technological and digital developments have led to new concepts and social structures. These have changed the way the art market works and how it is constructed. The digital era has opened up many possibilites for the artists, the art dealers and for persons with interest in investing in unestablished artists and contemporary art. The theory in this b
Arbetsmarknaden präglas av motsättningen mellan de människor som säljer och de som köper arbetskraft, mellan arbetstagare och arbetsgivare. Motsättningen blir tydlig vid utformningen av anställningsförhållandet i svensk arbetsrätt, särskilt vad gäller de så kallade tidsbegränsade anställningsformerna. Dessa utgörs idag av allmän visstidsanställning, vikariat, säsongsarbete och anställning vid uppn
The purpose of this thesis is to compare best-selling business literature in China and the US. Snapshots of Amazon.com and Amazon.cn bestseller lists were captured in early 2014, and the 25 highest ranked titles in the designated “business” category on each website form the foundation for comparison. The books mainly touch on Economics & Politics, Management Studies, Productivity & Life Ma
