1. “The grandiosity of tasks and mediocrity of tools”: Confronting the transnational social question with mobile CEE citizens’ experiences in Sweden
University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Statsvetenskapliga institutionenAbstract : This thesis contributes to the debate surrounding east-west intra-EU mobility, the transnational social question and European citizenship by uncovering often undervalued and stigmatized histories, experiences, and knowledge from the EU’s central and eastern member states by highlighting the voices of mobile CEE citizens in Sweden. Taking a problem-driven, adaptive approach, this thesis draws on qualitative interviews—with twelve respondents representing Croatia, Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland, Latvia, and Estonia—contextualized by official documents from the EU and Sweden, including a European Commission communication and press release, a report prepared by Sweden’s National Board of Trade, and a letter from the EU Affairs ministers of Sweden, Finland, and Norway defending the freedom of movement.

4. East-West Trade Before the EU-expansion - A Gravity Model Analysis
University essay from Lunds universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionenAbstract : When the EU expanded to include ten new countries, the popular opinion was that this would inevitably lead to large increases in trade flows between eastern and western Europe.
