1. 1. The swing of the pendulum: Sweden's pivot to NATO : A case of small states' shift in security policy

   Kandidat-uppsats, Försvarshögskolan

   Författare :Irena Bonnier; [2024]
   Nyckelord :Security and defence policy; Sweden; NATO; Small states studies; Deterrence; Shelter theory s political military dimension; Realism; Foreign Policy Change; Domestic determinants of small states security policy; Process-tracing; Säkerhets- och försvarspolitik; Sverige; NATO; Småstatsteori; Avskräckning; Vindskyddsteorins politiska militära dimension; Realism; Utrikespolitisk förändring; Inhemska påverkansfaktorer på småstaters säkerhetspolitik; Processpårning;

   Sammanfattning : Sweden is the only state in the Baltic Sea region currently not under NATO protection, which puts the state in a particularly vulnerable position. On 18 May 2022, Sweden officially deemed NATO alignment a more effective option of security strategy in projecting deterrence and dealing with the security challenges the state is facing, compared to a strategy of non-alignment which has been Sweden’s security posture for over 200 years.

3. 2. THE COUPLING OF A DOUBLE QUANTUM DOT TO MICROWAVE PHOTONS

   Kandidat-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Matematisk fysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Författare :Mohamed Abrash; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Quantum computing; Qubit; Double quantum dot DQD ; Microwave resonator; Quantum integrated circuits; Sweet spots; Hybrid quantum circuits.; Physics and Astronomy;

   Sammanfattning : In this study, we derive a mathematical description of a double quantum dot (DQD) embedded in a microwave resonator starting from classical electrostatics. DQDs are a promising platform for building quantum computers and have important applications in quantum sensing and the study of light-matter interactions. LÄS MER

4. 3. Lilliputians Amongst Gullivers in the Arctic Region : A qualitative content analysis applying small state theory to the Nordic states' national security strategies in the Arctic region.

   Master-uppsats, Försvarshögskolan

   Författare :Mikaela Trouvé; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Arctic region; small state theory; Nordic states; security strategy; qualitative content analysis;

   Sammanfattning : With the aim of contributing to the theoretical discussion of small state behaviour, this thesis investigates the Nordic state’s security strategies concerning the Arctic region. The applied theoretical framework is based upon a traditional state-centric understanding of security to investigate if the predicted behaviour derived from small state theory can be captured in the Nordic states' security strategies in the Arctic region.

5. 4. HUR KAN EN SMÅSTAT FRAMGÅNGSRIKT AVSKRÄCKA EN STORMAKT?

   Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Försvarshögskolan

   Författare :Ida Mårtén; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Avskräckning; Lyckad avskräckning; Småstat; Freedman; Georgien; Taiwan;

   Sammanfattning : One of the military’s main purposes is to act as a deterrent force. There is a lot of research on deterrence that mainly deals with how great powers should use deterrence, but not as much research on how small states can deter great powers. LÄS MER

7. 5. Gynnade neutraliteten Sverige under andra världskriget? : En analys av den svenska exporten 1930-1950

   L2-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

   Författare :Tobias Jackson; [2022]
   Nyckelord :Ekonomisk historia; Sverige; Andra världskriget; Ekonomi; export; handel; svensk ekonomi;

   Sammanfattning : The research regarding the effects of the Second World War on the Swedish economy is divided into two parts; on the one hand, there is research that says that neutral Sweden benefited because the country was spared from the war, but on the other, there is research that says that the total effects of the war were negative. Furthermore, researchers such as Hirschman that the prevailing conditions created a situation where small states like Sweden were exploited by great powers. LÄS MER
