Bakgrund: Mycket talar för att Sverige kan komma att bli det första kontantfria landet i världen. I och med digitaliseringen har Sveriges Riksbank initierat ett projekt, ”E-kronan”, för att eventuellt lansera en digital valuta som komplement till de fysiska kontanterna. Denna uppsats kommer kartlägga de olika inställningarna som yngre användare i åldersgruppen 20 – 30 år kan tänkas ha och de bakomliggande faktorerna till dessa inställningar. Därmed ämnar uppsatsen bidra med en förståelse för hur den yngre generationen upplever E-kronan som alternativ till fysiska kontanta medel samt som underlag till beslutsfattare huruvida E-kronan bör implementeras utifrån ett användarperspektiv. Syfte: Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att kartlägga svenska 20 – 30 åringars inställning till en potentiell implementering av E-kronan som komplement till dagens fysiska kontanter, samt de bakomliggande faktorerna till de identifierade inställningarna. Genomförande: Uppsatsen har genom ett kvalitativt tillvägagångsätt intervjuat 58 personer under en tidsperiod på sju veckor. Författarna har använt sig av ett bekvämlighetsurval i kombination med ett kvoturval. I uppsatsen identifieras fyra typer beroende på respondenternas inställning samt skildras ett analysverktyg för att illustrera vilka bakomliggande faktorer som har haft större påverkan på avsikten att använda E-kronan. Slutsats: Uppsatsförfattarna kommer fram till att beredskapen för E-kronan inte är densamma som behovet som upplevs för den. Dessutom är information om projektet en väsentlig del som i nuläget begränsar respondenterna i deras beslutsfattande. Slutligen rekommenderar även uppsatsförfattarna att E-kronan bör utgöra ett betalalternativ som skiljer sig från dagens existerande. / Background: Sweden could become the first cash-free country in the world. As a result of the digitalization, the Swedish Central Bank has initiated a project called the E-krona to investigate whether a launch of a digital currency should be realized to complement the hard cash. This essay will map the various attitudes that younger users in the age group 20 – 30 may have together with their underlying factors. Therefore, the essay aims to provide an understanding of how the younger generation experiences the E-krona as an alternative to hard cash as well as a basis for decision makers whether the E-krona should be implemented from a users' perspective. Purpose: The purpose of this essay is to map the Swedish 20 – 30-year old’s attitude towards a potential implementation of the E-krona as a complement to today's hard cash, as well as the underlying factors to the identified attitudes. Completion: The essay has been conducted through a qualitative approach in which 58 respondents were interviewed for a period of seven weeks. The authors have used a convenience selection combined with a ratio selection at the empirical gathering. The authors have identified four typologies dependent on the respondents' attitudes as well as created an analysis tool to illustrate which factors have had the most impact on the intention to use the E-krona. Conclusion: The authors have concluded that the readiness for the E-krona is not the same as the need for it. In addition, information about the project is an essential part that currently limits respondents in their decision making. Finally, the paper recommends that the E-krona should be designed with a unique infrastructure and functions to gain a competitive factor.

Sustainability is one of the mega trends that is emerging nowadays. It is built on protecting our planet and its resources. Agenda 2030 is a universal call to action, which demonstrates the significance of moving towards sustainability in three different areas of environmental, social, and economic at the international level. One of the focal points of environmental sustainability deals with climate change due to using fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions. Sweden aims to be one of the world’s first fossil-free nations, and its initiative Fossil Free Sweden offers roadmaps in different sectors to accomplish this goal. Growing the service business through using digital technologies is a strategy many companies tend to in the fast-changing world. Although it potentially leads to competitive advantage and enhancing revenues, it is a challenging situation, particularly for industrial firms. This study seeks to consider a more holistic view regarding the transition that companies need to take by 2030 in pursuing digital servitization and at the same time becoming fossil fuel free. Surviving the transition can not happen without revising business models and exploring new business opportunities. To address this issue, an explorative case study is performed in a manufacturing company in the construction equipment industry to collect, analyze and frame the existing knowledge in digital servitization and business model, moreover, to identify the factors that industrial firms should consider in improving their service business in the transition towards fossil-free society. To do so, 1) a set of coproduction sessions are held in the case company with advanced engineering and researchers, 2) as well an online survey is distributed inside the case company, to collect valuable knowledge and practical insight. The outcome of the research is a framework that can be used as a practical guide to support firms in the transition towards digital servitization and help them to figure out their current position in case of offerings and business models and plan for the next steps and new opportunities. In addition, six important factors with their sub-factors are offered accompanied by six general guidelines that firms should consider in their journey towards the transition.

O presente trabalho analisa como o economista austríaco Friedrich August von Hayek estrutura sua teoria da justiça, identificando a realização do ideal de justiça numa sociedade livre com a vigência do Estado de Direito, ou seja, do governo das normas gerais de conduta justa, que deverão ser aplicadas sempre visando a igualdade formal (isonomia). Ainda, discute os motivos pelos quais o autor considera que a liberdade individual só poderá efetivamente florescer em uma ordem espontânea, que funciona baseada na concorrência, a qual só poderá se manter onde vigore o Estado de Direito e, portanto, haja justiça formal. / The present paper analyzes how the economist Friedrich August von Hayek structures his theory of justice, identifying the accomplishment of the ideal of justice in a free society with the Rule of Law, that is to say, in the government of rules of just conduct, which must be applied always aiming at the equality before the law (isonomia). Besides, this paper discusses the reasons why the author considers that liberty can effectively flourish only in a spontaneous order that performs based on competition, which will be maintained where the Rule of Law stands and, therefore, the formal justice is present.
