2. Government Support for Semiconductors & International Trade Disciplines - Proposed Chips Act for Europe within the Frame of WTO Commitments
Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Institutionen för handelsrättSammanfattning : The global semiconductor industry has benefited from a period of intense geographic specialization, yet faces the growing prospect of a new era of turbulence in international trade relations.

Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionenSammanfattning : The coexisting rise of China and Central European economies in the early 2000s as respectively the “Factory of the World” and the “Factory of Europe” raises the question whether Central Europe has either benefited from, or been harmed by the rise of China. This thesis therefore investigates the impact of the China shock on employment levels in Central Europe between 2000 and 2014. LÄS MER
