Two Degrees Climate Target: Hell or Hallelujah

In 1996 the European Union and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) adopted the 2°C climate target to prevent dangerous climate change and to limit the rise in global mean temperature to 2°C above the preindustrial level. If this is possible to accomplish, with increasing emission of greenhouse gases, is hard to tell. There are today many uncertainties within the conn

This is more commonly known as democratic backsliding and scholarly agreement points to polarization as an underlying cause. Since 2016 the U.S. democratic quality has significantly dropped, whilst polarizatio

To examine the performance of the funds, Jensen’s alpha, Sharpe ratio, Information ratio and Treynor ratio is calculat

The situation for the LGBT community is still problematic in many parts of the world. But maybe change is coming. This paper examines how the state leaders of Malaysia and Singapore speak publicly about gay rights in their own countries.
