A visit to Brussels
In October our class went to Belgium with the purpose of visiting the European Week of Regions and Cities 2024 during our course on the European Union. We lived in Mechelen, a nice city north of Brussels.
Evaluating gender among minorities in relation to the CHIPS and Science Act
Recently we produced three papers during a course on policy analysis, one of which I wrote about the American legislation The CHIPS and Science Act, gender and race.
At the parliament
A couple of weeks ago I visited the Swedish Parliament (Sveriges riksdag) to attend an award ceremony. My supervisor got the School for social sciences at Södertörn University to nominate my bachelor’s thesis for an award issued by the Swedish Parliament.
The debate on refugee espionage
Refugee espionage, according to Swedish law, is when a person unlawfully, secretly and systematically, over time, gathers information about someone else in order to provide a foreign power this information. It’s been part of Swedish law since the 1940’s and Sweden is one of the few countries to actually prohibit this action. How does the Swedish parliament and media debate refugee espionage since 2014, when the law was revised?
Thesis proceeding
The snow is still covering parts of the ground and I’m writing the introduction, purpose and research questions on my bachelor’s thesis in political science. If all goes according to plan, it’ll be complete and presented to the examiner and supervisor in late May and in May-June it’ll be publicly discussed and examined.
Time to decide again
It’s been two years and finally it’s time to study some more. In roughly one month, we’ll begin writing our bachelor thesis.
Reasons and responsibilites to protect personal data
I wrote about personal data in two strategies, namely the so-called Digitalization strategy and the National strategy for cyber security. Who is responsible for protecting personal data and what are the reasons to protect personal data? Is there a gender perspective present?
Idea accepted
After many days of straying like a lost dog around the different ideas, I settled on one idea.
Time to decide
I’ve reached the point in my education in political science where I have to choose. Choose a subject I wish to pursue. It can be anything. That’s not me however.
