Mapping sustainability in higher education: A natural language processing analysis of student theses
This paper examines the integration of sustainability in higher education, focusing on how business, economics, and finance students relate their work to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). We develop SustainSight, an inference engine using natural language processing to assess sustainability content in written text. Using SustainSight, we analyze over 23,000 bachelor’s and master’s theses from the five largest Swedish universities offering…
Brick by brick: Governing industry decarbonization in the face of uncertainty and risk
Basic materials such as steel and cement have been instrumental to modern society, but the production requires high energy inputs and is associated with significant CO2 emissions. Long investment cycles, slow turnover rate of the capital stock, and high capital intensity mean that basic materials industries are among the economic activities that will be the most difficult to decarbonize. Although the importance of addressing industrial emissions …
Covid-19: Large-scale collective action, government intervention, and the importance of trust
On the preconditions for large-scale collective action
The phenomenon of collective action and the origin of collective action problems have been extensively and systematically studied in the social sciences. Yet, while we have substantial knowledge about the factors promoting collective action at the local level, we know far less about how these insights travel to large-scale collective action problems. Such problems, however, are at the heart of humanity’s most pressing challenges, including climat…
Higher education for sustainability: Can education affect moral perceptions
A considerable literature looks at universities’ approaches to integrating sustainable development into teaching and learning, but less is known about how Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) affects student attitudes, values and norms. To our knowledge, only a few studies have quantified such effects of changes in curricula. This study contributes to this literature by quantifying and measuring the effect of a compulsory sustainability ac…

Is fairness blind?—The effect of framing on preferences for effort-sharing rules
