The focus of this paper is on aid and relief work after the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami in Thailand. Six provinces in the south of Thailand were hit by the tsunami and the catastrophe is estimated to have altered the lives of more than 50,000 people. A disaster always hits the underprivileged hardest. Many of those who survived the tsunami had lost their homes, families, relatives, and neighbours, a

Freedom of expression, including media freedom and pluralism, are at the core of the democratic processes. Media pluralism requires transparency, freedom and diversity in Europe’s media landscape. The broad perception and definition of the terms are based upon the willingness to charge media freedom and pluralism with expectations of very significant and sometimes even unachievable social and poli

Predictability is a key function of law. When the application of law goes from being flexible to becoming unpredictable this key function is lost. This article shows how legal application can deviate from formal agreements and law, how legal predictability experiences a setback when other forces or values affect the decision making that is supposed to be strictly legally controlled. Non-legally ac

When they migrate to another Member State (MS), EU citizens must adjust to a country whose legal environment is composed of both national laws and EU laws. Additionally, mobile EU citizens have their own legal culture which crafts the way they make sense of mundane circumstances and social interactions. What comes out of the mutual interplay between the host MS’s legal environment and mobile EU ci

This thesis explores how Swedish foreign aid, delivered through Public-Private Development Partnerships (PPDPs), generates motives for engagement and creates business opportunities for Swedish Multinational Enterprises (MNEs). As Sweden increasingly aligns its foreign aid policy with national interests by increasing the involvement of domestic firms, it becomes important to understand why these fi

The EU and its Member States have been increasingly engaging into cooperation with third countries with the view to containing movements and preventing refugees from entering European soil. These cooperative arrangements have been critiqued for allowing EU countries to evade their responsibilities vis-a-vis refugees subjecting them to substandard treatment in transit countries. From a distributive

This thesis investigates the impact of foreign aid in 46 sub-Saharan countries. Furthermore, this study also examines what effect the interaction between policies and aid has on growth. This is done through a panel based OLS regression model on the years of 1996-2011. The main findings are that there’s not a clear answer to whether aid has a significant effect on growth and that the result depends

This thesis is a qualitative case study on greening policies in the Minawao Refugee Camp in far-northern Cameroon. It thoroughly investigates the actors and dynamics of humanitarian aid and specifically explores how environmental mainstreaming can shape humanitarian governance. The case was chosen due to its unique policies and programmes that aim to green the refugee camp and use a participat

Since there is a lack of scientific knowledge concerning strategic thinking, this study sought to achieve a more comprehensive understanding of the concept. The presumption of the study is that one needs strategic thinking to deal with complex and unfamiliar situations. As globalisation is one main driving factor in the change of how business is run, there is an increased need for organisations to
