1	Har HIV-epidemin haft någon påverkan på länders ekonomiska tillväxt? : En empirisk studie av Afrikas länder Ulinder, Martin January 2015 (has links) Den här uppsatsen undersöker relationen mellan ekonomisk tillväxt och sjukdomsepidemin HIV/AIDS i 47 afrikanska länder. Den empiriska undersökningenär utförd med hjälp av regressionsanalys med paneldata. Genom att använda data från olika välkända källor har BNP/capita för varje land undersökts. Olika faktorer som förväntas påverka utvecklingen i BNP/capita undersöks. BNP/capita har logaritmeratsi modellen för att fånga den procentuella förändringen. De inkluderade oberoende variablerna i undersökningen är andelen smittade iHIV/AIDS i åldrarna 15-49, förväntad livslängd vid födseln, inflation, befolkningstillväxt, internetanvändare, utländska investeringar samt den släpande logaritmerade BNP/capita under åren 1990-2013. Den empiriska undersökningen visar att HIV-epidemin har en positiv inverkan på den ekonomiska tillväxten. Effekten är troligen indirekt då en ökad andel sjuka leder till större efterfrågan på arbete inom sjukvårdssektorn och arbete som täcker upp för de som har insjuknat eller inte kan arbeta på grund av sin sjukdom. Undersökningensresultat är inte i linje med de flesta tidigare undersökningar som säger att HIV/AIDSär negativ för den ekonomiska tillväxten. Ekonomisk tillväxt BNP/capita HIV/AIDS paneldata
2	Är Inflationens påverkan på BNP/Capita tillväxt positivt eller negativt? : En paneldata analys av OECD länderna Elmström, Daniel, Zamayeri, Pierre January 2016 (has links) This thesis investigates the relationship between inflation and long term GDP/capita growth on the OECD countries from 1970–2014. Data is secondary collected from acknowledged organizations and institutes and consist of a paneldataframework. The study is conducted with a Log-Semilog-regression model analysis and the dependent variable in question isGDP/capita growth. The main focus of the study is the effects of the independent variable inflation on growth. Several independent explanatory variables are included to avoid bias and help determine the impact of inflation on growth. The empirical resultssuggest a positive effect of inflation on gdp/capita growthin most models. The findings are not in line with estimations of this study in regards to theory. The results could however be explained by otherwork on the subject and give rise to curiosity for further studies.

3	UN Peacekeeping Operations : How do UN peacekeeping missions affect the host country’s economy? Pamliden, Frida, Hellgren, Elsa January 2021 (has links) In this thesis we aim to examine the economic impact of peacekeeping provided by the United Nations (UN) in conflict-affected countries around the globe. The main interest of this thesis is to estimate the possible economic impact that UN peacekeeping operations may have had on conflict-affected countries’ economies between 1989-2019. We aim to do this by investigating if there is a positive causal relationship between UN peacekeeping operation (PKO) and GDP/capita. This is done by examining previous research and conducting an empirical analysis using a difference-in-differences method. Our model examines the change in GDP/capita levels for both a treatment and non-treatment group, defining PKO as treatment. Data on the conflicts, UN peacekeeping operations and other relevant variables was collected from well-established open sources. The results imply that PKO has a positive impact on GDP/capita development, but that the effect most likely goes through the effect that PKO has on our mediator variables, that in turn positively affect GDP levels. Furthermore, our results indicate that the size of the mission, in terms of military strength, does seem to increase the economic effect.

4	En empirisk granskning av korrelationen mellan handelsliberalism och ekonomisk tillväxt : Finns ett samband mellan handelsliberalism och ekonomisk tillväxt i länder i Mellanöstern & Asien? Allan, Kadir, Gemvall, Maria January 2017 (has links) The purpose of the thesis has been to investigate whether there is a link between trade liberalism and economic growth in the Asian countries. Previous research has pointed out that correlation exists between these variables, but there have also been other researchers who criticized such a relationship. We discovered that economic growth studies had previously been conducted where countries in Asia were included. This motivated us to carry out our study as our research hopefully helps to replenish existing knowledge gap. In the study, we have used cross-sectional regression analysis for 30 Asian countries where data were collected for 1990-2000. Our dependent variable in our regression is average GDP per capita, which also defines growth. We have used two independent variables as main variables, trade volume and economic freedom index. Our analysis shows that the majority of the variables in the study have a positive significant relation to economic growth.
