1. Economic determinants of OECD fertility rates : Evidence of the Easterlin hypothesis
Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/NationalekonomiSammanfattning : The Easterlin hypothesis of relative cohort sizes has previously been used to explain changes in the fertility rate in the mid-20th century.

2. The Wealth of Moral Sentiments : En studie av Adam Smiths syn på lönearbete
Magister-uppsats, Malmö universitet/Fakulteten för lärande och samhälle (LS)Sammanfattning : My ambition in the midst of the myriad of conflicting views in Smith scholarship has been to examine Smith’s perspective on wage labour, as formulated in The Wealth of Nations, in light of previous research, the historical context, his moral psychology described in The Theory of Moral Sentiments, and his presentation of rights developed in Lectures on Jurisprudence. Therefore, the central question has been, “How did Adam Smith perceive wage labour?” Since The Wealth of Nations was formulated in a specific historical context - which has come to be known as the Scottish Enlightenment -, it is necessary to approach the text with an understanding of these historical conditions in order to grasp Smith's economic theory.

Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionenSammanfattning : This thesis studies the effect on labour demand of a transition from an unconstrained economy featuring a ’clean’ and a ’dirty’ production method towards a fully clean economy, using a simplified General Equilibrium model. This model is calibrated to the European Union Emission Trading System (EUETS) and features a linear decline in a cap placed on the dirty production method. LÄS MER

Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Lunds universitet/Juridiska fakulteten; Lunds universitet/Juridiska institutionenSammanfattning : Det har argumenterats för att den svenska arbetsmarknadsmodellen (den svenska modellen) och arbetsmarknadens parters ställning kan vara hotad till följd av EU-samarbetet och den utveckling som skett på arbetsrättens område. Redan vid det svenska inträdet i unionen betonades vikten av att modellen skulle vara ohotad och frågan om den svenska modellens ställning har diskuterats flitigt sedan dess. LÄS MER
