    University essay from Linnéuniversitetet/Institutionen för ekonomistyrning och logistik (ELO)

    Author : Alexander Gustafsson; Viktor Magnebrink; [2022]
    Keywords : Sanctions; GDP;

    Abstract : In this paper we conduct a case study along with an empirical assessment of how sanctions impact a target nation's GDP growth. We also assess if the impact varies depending on the type of sanction. Our sample for the regression contains 35 countries of which 16 experienced sanctions between 2010-2019. READ MORE

  3. 2. Growing crops or growing conflicts? : Climate variability, rice production and political violence in Vietnam

    University essay from Försvarshögskolan

    Author : William Sundelin; [2021]
    Keywords : climate change; climate variability; security; agriculture; food security; political violence; Vietnam;

    Abstract : This thesis contributes to research on climate change and violent conflict by testing the theory of a causal relationship between climate variability, agricultural production and political violence in the case of Vietnam 2010-2019. Climate-related negative shocks to agricultural production in developing countries are expected to lower the opportunity cost of violence through an income effect. READ MORE
