A decade ago, Nordic cooperation on security and defence matters gained momentum, having been largely absent fromthe map of Nordic cooperation during the Cold War and its aftermath. This article analyses developments along three dimensionsof Nordic cooperation: military defence (focusing on the Nordic Defence Cooperation), civil security (in the formof the ‘Haga’ process), and political cooperatio

How macroeconomic crises affect firms' environmental sustainability strategies is an open question. We study the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the environmental sustainability strategies of firms listed on the OMXNasdaq stock exchange in Sweden. The analysis is based on a survey distributed twice, once during the summer of 2020 and once during the summer of 2021 with detailed questions relate

This thesis concerns the law/fact distinction in law. The interest it takes in the distinction is not practical, but conceptual. It more specifically concerns the questions: “What is it that is conceptually assumed about something when it is categorized as ‘of law’ or ‘of fact’?” and “What is conceptually assumed about the law when law is distinguished from fact by the use of the law/fact distinct

This cross-country study investigates the potential to improve pig welfare by exploiting consumer demand, domestically and in export markets, for welfare pork produced in indoor production systems. The analysis is based on questionnaire data collected in 2019 focusing on demand for Danish welfare pork both in Denmark and in two nearby export markets, Sweden and Germany. To reduce hypothetical bias

Multilevel Monte Carlo is a novel method for reducing the computational cost when computing conditional expectations of stochastic processes. This paper considers the transition density for diffusion processes. It is known that the transition density can be written as an expectation by utilizing the law of total probability combined with the Markov property. This idea is combined with the multilev

In this thesis, the question of how to balance the right to reindeer herding against competing interests of land use in Sápmi in accordance with the indigenous rights of the Sami, will be examined. In order to answer this question other questions needs to be answered – What is the right to reindeer herding? Who is the holder of the right? Where can the right be exercised and finally, how can the r

The sum of a random number of independent and identically distributed random vectors has a distribution which is not analytically tractable, in the general case. The problem has been addressed by means of asymptotic approximations embedding the number of summands in a stochastically increasing sequence. Another approach relies on fitting flexible and tractable parametric, multivariate distribution
