2. Accommodation och affektiv polarisering på elitnivå - En teoriprövande och teoriutvecklande studie av vänsterorienterade mainstreampartiers relation till invandringskritiska nischpartier
Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionenSammanfattning : Is it possible for a left-wing mainstream party to use the strategy Accommodation against an anti immigrant niche party, at the same time as its leaders experiences Affective Polarizing against the same party? A coexistence might seem incompatible, since Accommodation describes how a party decreases the policy differences to another party, while Affective Polarization on elite level captures the negative emotional attitude and distance to another party. Drawing on Meguids theory of Accommodation, and previous research on Affective Polarization on elite level, I examine the possibility of coexistence of the two phenomena in a qualitative and theory-developing case study of the Swedish Social Democratic party’s (Socialdemokraterna) relation to the Sweden Democrats (Sverigedemokraterna) 2010-2022.

5. What is the effect of political coalitions on economic outcomes? : A Regression Discontinuity approach for Swedish municipalities during 1994-2017
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionenSammanfattning : This thesis identifies the effect of traditional political coalitions on the left-right spectrum in Swedish municipal politics on economic outcomes such as Municipal Revenues, Expenditures, Net-expenditures, Municipal Tax-rates, Unemployment, and the share of Municipal Employment. To do so, varying time spans of Swedish municipal data from 1994-2017 are used in a regression discontinuity design, basing its identification on quasi-random variation created by close municipal elections.
