This study aims to investigate how social media trends affect international trade through a study on the relationship between the global matcha tea trend and Japanese green tea exports. The study is performed in two steps, due to limitations in social media data access. Firstly, a time-series regression is used to analyse the relationship between global TikTok views and Google search intensity for

By evaluating music, journalists are in a position of symbolic power. Reviews are based on a subjective perspective but gain legitimacy through social and cultural frameworks. This raises a critical question: what happens when the soc
Denna uppsats är en undersökning av rättsregel och tolkningen av den samma gällande återkallelse av flyktingstatusförklaring. En vag rättsregel har frambringat ett prejudikatstyrt angreppssätt. Systemet innebär att en stor mångfald av perspektiv måste vägas in i bedömningen. Enligt artikel 14(4)(b) i Skyddsgrundsdirektivet får en flyktingstatusförkla-ring återkallas om personen i fråga gjort sig This essay examines the legal rules and their interpretation concerning the revocation of refugee status declarations. A vague legal rule has given rise to a precedent driven approach. The system requires that a wide range of per-spectives must be taken into account in the evaluation. According to Article 14(4)(b) of the Qualification Directive, a refugee status declaration may be revoked if the

Drawing on role theory, particularly the concepts of national role conception and domestic role contestation, the study investigates (1) which national self-im
The difference between the English North and South has long been a defining feature within the political and economical debate of the United Kingdom. Research has traditionally been done either explaining the regional inequalities of the region or the examination of the difference in material indicators such as income and employment. This thesis explores the role of the media and how the media dis
This thesis investigates the weaponisation of healthcare in Ukraine during the ongoing conflict, analysing how deliberate attacks on medical infrastructure are not just violations of humanitarian law but systemic assaults on development, governance, and human security. Framed through a three-stage model: Disruption, Destabilisation, and Reconstruction, the study draws on Amartya Sen’s Development
As demand for nicotine pouches continues to grow globally, especially in the form of tobacco-free snus, efficient and scalable packaging solutions have become essential for producers. This report presents the design, development, and testing of a fully automated end-of-line packaging station using a collaborative robot (cobot), specifically the UR10e. The project was carried out in collaboration w
This study examines whether machine learning (ML) models can forecast daily Bitcoin price directions and generate statistically significant alpha in trading strategies. Employing a dual-model approach, we utilize a Random Forest (RF) classifier, leveraging its non-linear strengths and a LASSO-penalized logistic regression as a linear benchmark. Both models are trained on a comprehensive dataset o
