    Till följd av den globala finanskrisen Är 2008 stÀlldes det europeiska samarbetet pÄ prov. I och med detta presenterade EU ett förslag till ett direktiv angÄende en finansiell transaktionsskatt för samtliga lÀnder inom EU. Elva av EU:s 28 medlemslÀnder har valt att stÀlla sig bakom förslaget om en finansiell transaktionsskatt, vilket innebÀr att dessa lÀnder avser införa en finansiell transaktionsskatt. Tidigare empiriska erfarenheter har dock visat att en finansiell transaktionsskatt Àr mindre effektiv Àn vad föresprÄkarna gör gÀllande, varken pÄverkan pÄ skatteintÀkter eller marknadens volatilitet har i dessa fall levt upp till de önskvÀrda effekterna. Denna uppsats syfte Àr att analysera vad som ligger till grund för lÀndernas stÀllningstagande och uppsatsens hypotes ger vid handen att det föreligger ett positivt samband mellan finanskrisens pÄverkan pÄ respektive EU land, inhemsk opinion och ett positivt stÀllningstagande till en finansiell transaktionsskatt inom EU. För att testa hypotesen anvÀnds en induktiv metod vilken Àr uppbyggd pÄ vetenskapliga artiklar och ekonomisk litteratur. Vidare genomförs flera regressionsanalyser i syfte att pÄvisa de positiva samband som hypotesen antar föreligger. I de uppvisade resultaten framgÄr att det gÄr att stödja uppsatsens hypotes. Uppsatsen kommer dÀrför fram till att det föreligger ett positivt samband mellan finanskrisens pÄverkan pÄ respektive EU-land, inhemsk opinion och ett positivt stÀllningstagande till en finansiell transaktionsskatt.In the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis the European Union was put to the test. As a result, the EU submitted a proposal for a directive regarding a financial transactions tax levied throughout every nation in the European Union. Eleven of the 28 EU member states decided to support the proposal for a financial transactions tax. The eleven member states adopted the stance to support the proposal in spite of the historical empirical evidence indicating a financial transactions tax to not be as effective as the advocators claim. This paper aims to analyse the basis of the EU member states adopted stance towards a financial transactions tax. The thesis statement suggest that there is a positive correlation between the impact of the financial crisis on each respective EU country, domestic public opinion and a positive stance towards a financial transactions tax in the EU. To test the thesis statement an inductive method, based on academic articles and economic literature, is applied. Furthermore a regression analysis is used to prove the appearance of the expected positive relationships in the thesis statement. The results of the paper indicate the thesis statement to be probable. Therefore, this paper concludes that there is a positive relationship between the impact of the financial crisis in the EU states, domestic opinion and a positive stance to a financial transactions tax

    Of God, Humanity, and the World: Reflections on The Truman Show

    Get PDF
    Popular analysis of The Truman Show generally has focused on the comments the movie is making about our media culture and corporate influence in our lives. However, as the names of the lead characters (Truman, Christof) suggest, there is more to the movie than a critique of corporate media culture. With echoes of stories of the Garden of Eden, the Book of Job, and promises of heaven, the movie raises interesting and troubling questions about the nature of God and his relation to humanity in the Western tradition. With echoes of Descartes’ “evil genius” and how we come to know ourselves, each other and the world, the movie also addresses some fundamental assumptions of modern philosophy. The answers provided by the movie show that The Truman Show is a radical critique of commonly held assumptions about God, humanity and the world in which we live
