Eurolution : Har internhandeln i euroområdet ökat sedan euron infördes?

Denna undersökning ämnar utreda huruvida euroinförandet år 2002 medfört ökad internhandel i EMU. Undersökningen analyserar handelsstatistik från år 1998- 2008 för de femton länderna som vid euroinförandet var medlemmar i EU. I analysen studeras två grupper av länder; en innehållande EMU- länder och en kontrollgrupp innehållande länder som inte infört euron. För att kontrollera för underliggande faktorer som exempelvis konjunkturella förändringar och preexisterande handelsskillnader genomförs två Difference- in- Difference analyser. Undersökningen finner inget statistisk signifikant resultat på en ökad internhandel i EMU efter euroinförandet.

Ledde Kommunals strejk år 2003 till ett överutnyttjande av tillfällig föräldrapenning för vård av barn? : en empirisk undersökning

I uppsatsen undersöks hur Svenska Kommunalarbetarförbundets strejk våren år 2003 påverkade uttaget av tillfällig föräldrapenning för vård av barn (VAB). Min hypotes är att denna strejk leder till ett överutnyttjande av förmånen. Uttaget av VAB jämförs mellan de kommuner där dagbarnvårdare och barnskötare gick ut i strejk och de kommuner där detta inte hände. Genom att använda en Difference-in-Difference metod som kontrollerar för kommunspecifika och tidsspecifika faktorer finner jag att det totala uttaget av VAB signifikant minskar i de strejkdrabbade kommunerna. Under vissa antaganden kan man dock visa på en signifikant ökning i överutnyttjandet av VAB-förmånen..

Utveckling och utvördering av statistiska metoder för att öka träffsäkerheten hos lokala vindprognoser

Wind is used as an energy source all over the world. To be able to use this effectively, there is a need for as good forecasts and forecast models as possible. One of these models is Coupled Ocean/Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS®) that is used to calculate short time forecasts. This model is used here to calculate wind speeds at two different areas in Västra Götaland, Bengtsfors and Vänersborg. There are also wind measurements with SODAR stations for these areas.

Att bli-nomad och att ta?nka skillnad : En underso?kning av Rosi Braidottis feminina feministiska subjektsfiguration

This essay investigates the feminist philosophy of Rosi Braidotti with particular focus on the alternative feminine feminist nomadic subject that she creates.

I argue that Braidotti creates an alternative figuration for feminism through synthesizeing Deleuze?s concept of ?becoming? with Irigaray?s sexual Difference-theory.

Kan vi prata om det? Deliberativ demokrati, mångfald och politisk kamp

In recent years the liberal representative democracy has been subject of a substantial critique because of its inability to accommodate Difference and createa genuinely democratic political process. One such critique comes from the theory of deliberative democracy. Supporters of deliberative democracy try to promote a model of democracy that take its vantage point in free and equal deliberationbetween all relevant actors in a political community. This model has with some success opposed the aggregative model of democracy, and in important ways turned the attention to the potential of deliberative processes.However, the deliberative model is still somewhat underdeveloped when it comes to issues of diversity and Difference. This essay deals with such deficiencies by analysing deliberative democracy in the light of the critiquelaunched by Difference- and radical democrats.

I denna studie undersöks hur införandet av jobbskatteavdraget 2007 och de två utbyggnaderna 2008-2009 påverkade arbetsmarknaden i form av sysselsättning, arbetslöshet, långtidsarbetslöshet och sysselsättning i åldersgruppen 55-64 år.
