This paper investigates the impact income and wealth inequality have on redistribution through economic policy. The question is unresolved in the current literature. Addressing a key research gap, we analyze both income and wealth inequality as potential drivers of redistribution. Using a cross-country panel data study of 24 countries in the OECD, we estimate two different econometric models throu

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore how strategic investment decisions (SIDs) are made and implemented within the Swedish public sector. Through an analysis of a significant municipal investment, the study examines the rationales, frameworks, and processes involved in public decision-making and assessing their alignment with long-term strategic objectives and established theoretical m

En stigande global temperatur rubbar den naturliga hydrologiska cykeln, något som resulterar i alltmer frekventa och extrema översvämningar, men också längre perioder av torka och vattenbrist. I Kigali, Rwanda, leder klimatförändringarna till stora utmaningar i stadsutveckling och allmän säkerhet. Som svar på problemet, har Rwandas regering skapat projektet Green City Kigali, med syfte att utvecklRising global temperatures are disrupting the natural hydrological cycle, leading to both increased frequency and severity of flooding events, as well as prolonged periods of water scarcity. In Kigali, Rwanda, these shifts pose substantial challenges to urban development and public safety. In response, the Government of Rwanda is pursuing further development of Kigali through the Green City Kigali

Helios Innovations har idag problem med spridarna i sin indunstningsteknik, där flytande farligt avfall fördelas över evaporativa block. De industriella duschmunstycken som används tenderar att sätta igen och orsaka ojämn spridning av vätskan. Målet med detta examensarbete har varit att utveckla en förbättrad design av spridaren. En förbättrad spridardesign kan bidra till minskade underhållskostnHelios Innovations is currently facing issues with its distributors, which spread liquid hazardous waste over evaporative blocks in its evaporation technology. The industrial spray distributor tends to clog and distribute the liquid unevenly. This thesis project has aimed to develop an improved distributor design. An improved design could reduce maintenance costs and minimise environmental impact

I takt med att klimatförändringarna blir en allt mer akut fråga ökar efterfrågan på hållbara transportlösningar, särskilt i glesbygdsområden där alternativen ofta är begränsade. Denna uppsats undersöker potentialen för små eldrivna tåg – i storlek liknande bussar och drivna antingen av batterier eller bränsleceller – för användning på icke-elektrifierade järnvägslinjer på ett kostnadseffektivtThis thesis investigates the cost efficiency of two drivetrain configurations—Battery Only and Hydrogen-Battery—for use in mini-trains operating on non-electrified rural railways. The study focuses solely on drivetrain-related components, in cluding onboard energy storage, traction systems, and associated infrastructure such as charging stations and hydrogen refueling facilities. A comprehensive l

Background: As electronic control units (ECUs) become increasingly complex and central to vehicle functionality, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) face strategic decisions on whether to develop such components in-house or outsource them. These make-or-buy decisions affect not only cost but also innovation potential, lead times, and organizational capability. Purpose: To evaluate the implica

This thesis explores how business angels’ (BA’s) human- and financial capital contribute to the early-stage development of start-ups. While previous literature has extensively discussed BAs' financial roles, the combined effect of both capital types, particularly in relation to relational trust, remains underexplored. Addressing this gap, the study applies a qualitative approach, interviewing

I en tid av lågt bostadsbyggande, med svårigheter att få byggprojekt att gå ihop ekonomiskt, finns anledning att hitta nya lösningar för att sänka produktionskostnader vid byggandet av nya bostäder. Ett alternativ som diskuterats flitigt under de senaste åren på beslutsfattande nivå är om rådande tillgänglighetskrav ger upphov till onödiga produktionskostnader, trots att de inte fyller någon funktIn a time of low housing construction, with difficulties in making construction projects financially viable, there is reason to find new solutions to lower production costs in the construction of new housing. An alternative that has been widely discussed in recent years at a decision-making level is whether current accessibility requirements give rise to unnecessary production costs, even though t

This study investigates the activist engagement strategies of U.S.-domiciled hedge funds when engaging with Japanese firms. The study forms a comparison of the engagement strategies both before Japan’s 2015 Corporate Governance Code and after. To create this comparison, two campaigns were examined. First, the U.S.-domiciled hedge fund Steel Partners and its campaign against Japanese firm Bull-Dog

The call for climate justice becomes increasingly urgent as environmental degradation and social injustices grow even more intertwined, with their compounded impacts disproportionately affecting communities in the Global South.
