After the Rwandan genocide ended in 1994, the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR) have continuously posed an existential threat to Rwanda. This paper examines how this external threat has been perceived by the Rwandan government and subsequently responded to through military development measures. In addition, the objective is to evaluate
This research paper investigates the effect of the change in Sweden’s carbon reduction policy, using a Difference in differences method with Denmark as a comparative country. This is done in order to further understand the economic consequences of this change and similar changes in carbon reduction policy. This paper also aims to investigate the pricing dynamics of the diesel market in Sweden. By
The historical dominance of the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan (LDP) is generally regarded as having come to an end around the turn of the century. Some have attributed this dominance to hyper-targeted clientelism enabled by incumbency resource advantages, as K. F Greene’s (2007) resource-theory of single party dominance suggests. As such, the fall of the LDP would be explained by the loss of a
Founded in 1952, the European Parliament has progressed through transformational constitutional processes into the primary bearer of democracy within the European Union as its only directly elected institution. As several studies have reported on legislative behavior in previous European Parliament terms, this thesis aims to capture the effects of electoral systems, parliamentary groups’ ideologic
This thesis focuses on the concept “sustainable consumption” and how it is conceptually constructed by Swedish secondhand actors, specifically non-profit actors who actively engage in the resale of clothing. Our current excessive overconsumption of fashion and pressing need to shift to a more sustainable mode of consumption requires us to critically assess the definition of our sustainability idea
In recent years, populist support has grown while public confidence in political and economic institutions has weakened across Europe. This thesis explores the connection between these trends by asking whether populist participation in national cabinets undermines trust in domestic and supranational institutions. Using Eurobarometer surveys and election data from 25 EU member states between 2000 a
This thesis investigates how family ownership affects the short-term market reaction to acquisition announcements by serial acquirers. While family firms are traditionally viewed as conservative and long-term oriented, some engage in repeated acquisitions, a strategy typically associated with higher risk and managerial overconfidence. Using a sample of 678 acquisitions by Swedish publicly listed f
This thesis wants to investigate whether machine learning, trained on candlestick data, can be used to forecast intraday returns. Previous research has primarily focused on returns with longer horizons and is therefore leaving a research gap on shorter horizons. This thesis will use a combination of Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) as the deep learning model to
Background: The Critical Assessment of Genome Interpretation (CAGI) aims to advance the state-of-the-art for computational prediction of genetic variant impact, particularly where relevant to disease. The five complete editions of the CAGI community experiment comprised 50 challenges, in which participants made blind predictions of phenotypes from genetic data, and these were evaluated by independ
Momentum measurements for very high momentum charged particles, such as muons from electroweak vector boson decays, are particularly susceptible to charge-dependent curvature biases that arise from misalignments of tracking detectors. Low momentum charged particles used in alignment procedures have limited sensitivity to coherent displacements of such detectors, and therefore are unable to fully c
Motivated by the analysis of the tunneling effect for the magnetic Laplacian, we introduce an abstract framework for the spectral reduction of a self-adjoint operator to a hermitian matrix. We illustrate this framework by three applications, firstly the electro-magnetic Laplacian with constant magnetic field and three equidistant potential wells, secondly a pure constant magnetic field and Neumann
