Global adaptation governance : evidence from 30 international organizations, 1990-2017 / Ece Kural by Series: Stockholm Studies in International Relations ; 2021:1Language: English
Publication details: Stockholm : Stockholms universitet, 2021
Dissertation note: Diss. (summary) Stockholm : Stockholms universitet, 2021. This dissertation asks to what extent, how and why non-climate IOs engage with climate change adaptation. To answer this research question, the dissertation develops an overarching theoretical framework. The main argument is that IOs’ behavior and willingness to engage with climate adaptation is a function of internal (IO design and bureaucratic politics) and external factors (IO connectivity, resource dependency, fragmentation, problem complexity). Throughout five independent research articles in this dissertation, I utilize this framework to develop new hypotheses in the context of adaptation. Drawing on case studies and quantitative overtime data of 30 IOs, this thesis demonstrates that all non-climate IOs in the sample display engagement with climate adaptation in various forms ranging from publishing global guidelines to implementing local- level projects.

Shifting dangers in the shape of threats and risks : the discourse of Swedish security policy, 1979-2020 / Jonatan Stiglund by Series: Stockholm Studies in International Relations ; 2021:2Language: English
Publication details: Stockholm : Stockholm university, 2021
Dissertation note: Diss. Stockholm : Stockholms universitet, 2021.The dissertation constructs an analytical framework that makes it possible to identify these logics empirically. The analysis allows us not only to uncover the influence of risk and threat logics but also to see the wider implications of the ways in which they are represented and related to one another. In contrast to concrete and identifiable threats, a risk logic constructs security problems as spatially complex, without concrete form or a specific place from which emanate. Risks are also, by this definition, future-oriented and lack concrete form in the situation in which they are constructed. The dissertation shows that both security logics have had varying degrees of influence on Swedish security policy and analyzes three sets of implications that flow from how security issues are constructed: the constitution of security policy as a policy area, responsibility and accountability, and the power relationship between government and citizens.
