Vänsterpopulistiskt stöd

I denna uppsats studerar vi orsaker till att folk röstar på vänsterpopulistiska partier. Vi gör detta genom att använda data från European Social Survey (ESS) över väljarbeteende i fem europeiska länder och logistisk regression. Till skillnad från tidigare studier om populism och högerpopulism finner vi att ekonomiska faktorer har större förklaringskraft än kulturella i att förklara benägenhet att

Nationella intressen i humanitära interventioner - nyckeln till framgång eller katastrof?

Syrien - Från en folkrevolution till ett inbördeskrig

Det syriska inbördeskriget har pågått i nio år. De första demonstrationerna innehöll till stora delar fredliga budskap och en önskan om demokrati och reformering. Det som orsakade den sociala mobiliseringen tycks dock innehålla mer än en önskan demokratisering. Mot denna bakgrund var vårt syfte att undersöka vilken relation regimens och oppositionens framing har med den sociala mobilisering som ut

These are preparation and response. The government needs to have a good preparation plan, a
