This essay is about the indigenous people Urak Lawoi in Andaman Sea, outside the west coast of Thailand. The study shows what happens to them when they are being deprived of their territory and are being forced to abandon their culture, lifestyle and traditional economic subsistence. Urak Lawoi have until recently maintained culture, language and lifestyle apart from the rest of Thai society. Dur

EU FOREIGN POLICY - ROLE CONCEPTIONS IN THE 21ST CENTURY

Despite its achievements the exact status of the EU's international role remains highly contested in the academic debate. For some analysts, the EU can be legiti-mately considered as a global actor in both economic and security terms, but for others the notion of an EU foreign policy still seems distant. Hence, there are good reasons for this thesis to focus on the European Union and its role

Antimicrobial sensitivity-A natural resource to be protected by a Pigouvian tax?

Since their discovery more than 70 years ago antibiotic drugs have been efficient tools for treating bacterial infections, and their use has reduced the number of fatalities and the suffering from bacterial diseases. However, the use of antibiotics may lead to resistance to the same or other antibiotics. The risk of resistance appears to be larger in veterinary medicine, since antibiotics have bee

Subsidies in aviation

As the sector's importance for economic development is often highlighted, this paper seeks to provide a conceptual overview of the various forms of subsidies in aviation, as a contribution to a more holistic understanding of economic interrelationships.

Will the EU deforestation-free products regulation (EUDR) reduce tropical forest loss? Insights from three producer countries

The European Union regulation on deforestation-free products (EUDR) represents a policy innovation with important implications for the governance of global commodity chains. We discuss the risks and limitations of this policy derived from an ex-ante assessment of the robustness of its theory of change. For doing so, we use insights from the literature on zero-deforestation commitments and other pr

Futureless futures : Reflections on life in doomed places in Nordic countries

Across the scholarly and journalistic literature, an increasing sense of future uncertainty and prevailing sense of dread is being narrated. This unsettling sense of futurelessness seems to cut across scales in that globally unfolding menaces also shape lived experience locally in specific sites, where global risks intersect with local hazardousness of place. In this chapter, we reflect on how a s

China and the inherent risks involved in the SCO’s future development

In June 2001 the Shanghai Cooperation Organization or SCO was formally inaugurated. The SCO had as of 2001 as its full members China, Russia, Kakakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. Since that time Mongolia, India, Pakistan and Iran have been accepted as observers. There is speculation that Turkmenistan, following its recent change of regime, may also join the SCO in some way in the nea
