Beyond Reporting
This paper analyses how large Swedish firms and financial institutions integrate climate change and biodiversity into their business strategies and governance structures. Using unique 2022 and 2023 survey data and logistic probability models, we examine how internal and external factors shape early responses to the EU Taxonomy and the CSRD. Our findings confirm that the integration of climate change into business strategies and governance structu…
A century of divorce
Divorce increased throughout the twentieth century across Western nations. Procyclical divorce, i.e. following macroeconomic cycles, is often suggested and women’s increased economic independence is considered a contributor to increasing divorce rates. Research has, however, overlooked that different factors may drive divorce rates across time horizons. Macroeconomic conditions, like unemployment, covary with divorce in the short term, while proc…
The Emergence and Evolution of Nonprofit Organizations
Economic inequality and the ecological footprint
This paper explores the link between income, and wealth inequality and the ecological footprint in France, Netherlands, United States, and United Kingdom from 1962 to 2021. Based on theoretical considerations, we allow the relationship to vary over time. Our analysis provides some support for income inequality influencing ecological footprints, specifically through carbon emissions. Yet, we do not observe a significant effect on non‐carbon footpr…
The quest for economic stability
This paper explores the evolution of Swedish stabilisation policies through six policy regimes between 1873 and 2019. We focus on discretionary policy decisions by estimating policy shocks using a SVAR model. Through these shocks, we explore how stabilisation policies have evolved over time and how policymakers responded to key economic events such as financial crises and wars. Our results show three key results (i) policies are often a source of…
Macroeconomic equilibriums, crises and fiscal policy
Macroeconomic crises are common as well as economically, socially and politically costly. Fiscal policy plays an important role in alleviating the costs of the crisis. However, recent experiences suggest that the public finances are often unprepared for a crisis. Deficits and debt levels prior to the crisis are commonly too high, limiting the government’s ability to support the economy through the crisis and the recovery phase. In this article, I…
Looking Ahead to Voluntas’ Contribution to Research on Civil Society
Organizations has been to offer a forum for the publication of state-of-the-art research about civil society and nonprofit organizations worldwide. We want to thank the immediate former editors of Voluntas, Taco Brandsen and Ruth Simsa, whose driven commitment to make the journal a resource for researchers and practitioners from all over the globe, resulting in an upward tendency now with publications from authors from regions all over the world.…
Income inequality and carbon emissions in the United States 1929–2019
This paper studies the relationship between income inequality and carbon emissions in the United States between 1929 and 2019. We contribute to the literature by studying if and how the relationship has varied over time. To this end we estimate a band spectrum regression model and a smooth-varying coefficients model. Our results show that higher inequality was associated with lower emissions during the early part of the sample and higher emission…
A simple wavelet-based test for serial correlation in panel data models
Hong and Kao (2004) proposed a class of general applicable wavelet-based tests for serial correlation of unknown form in the residuals from a panel regression model. The tests can be applied to both static and dynamic panel models. Their test, however, is computationally difficult to implement, and simulation studies show that the test has poor small-sample properties. In this paper, we extend Gençay’s (2010) time-series test for serial correlati…

Civil Society Regimes and School Choice Reforms
We examine the effects of school choice reforms implemented in the early 1990s in two different settings: Sweden and Milwaukee (WI, U.S.). We show how both the ideological and theoretical arguments for choice reform were similar in the two contexts, yet the consequences in terms of the organizational outcome and institutional sector configuration ended up strikingly dissimilar. While the new group of actors in the Swedish school system consisted …
Bringing Fiscal Sponsor Activity to Light
We explore the extent to which nonprofits engaging as fiscal sponsors publicly disclose their fiscal sponsor activities. Fiscal sponsors can play an important role in the nonprofit sector by providing capacity support that is often lacking. However, the option to employ a fiscal sponsor is often not well known to smaller entities that would be in the best position to take advantage of the administrative efficiency provided by fiscal sponsors. In …
Determinants of Organizational Failure in the Milwaukee School Voucher Program
In this article, we utilize 25 years of data on the Milwaukee voucher program to test the relationships among organizational liabilities of newness, institutional affiliation, market‐share, and regulatory environment on the cumulative risk of school failure. Overall, we find that 41 percent of all private voucher schools operating in Milwaukee between 1991 and 2015 failed. Start‐up voucher schools, and those unaffiliated with a larger institution…
Job Displacement and the Duration of Joblessness
This paper presents a new approach to the measurement of the effects of spatial mismatch that takes advantage of matched employeremployee administrative data integrated with a person-specific job accessibility measure, as well as demographic and neighborhood characteristics. We focus on a group of job searchers for plausibly exogenous reasons: lower-income workers with strong labor force attachment separated during a mass layoff. Our results supp…
A Blessing in Disguise? Banking Crises and Institutional Change
Between Private Interests and the State
This study explores the strategies employed by the Swedish Railway Council to influence national railway policy from 1902 to 1967. The Council was a corporatist arrangement and functioned as a broker between industrial and regional interests and the public railways. The results show that though the Council's policy influence in many cases was marginal, there were occasions when the members could use the Council as a tool to influence railway poli…
Grain Market Integration in the Baltic Sea Region in the Nineteenth Century
This article explores the development of market integration within the Baltic Sea region and with England, from the 1840s to the late 1880s. It exploits two new datasets on grain prices. The degree of market integration is estimated using a wavelet variant of dynamic factor analysis that takes account of both time and distance. Additionally, we use the London corn market as the benchmark for the degree of market integration. Our results show that…
How does home equity affect mobility
Workplace Concentration of Immigrants
Casual observation suggests that in most U.S. urban labor markets, immigrants have more immigrant coworkers than native-born workers do. While seeming obvious, this excess tendency to work together has not been precisely measured, nor have its sources been quantified. Using matched employer–employee data from the U.S. Census Bureau Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) database on a set of metropolitan statistical areas (MSAs) with subs…
A Matter of Time
Trends and cycles in regional economic growth
Reaching for the Stars
Innovative firms need to hire and motivate highly talented workers. This article connects the potential returns to innovation to the structure of compensation for skilled employees. We show that the software firms that operate in software sectors with high potential upside gains to innovation pay more to 'star' workers than do other firms that operate in stable markets. Firms operating in product domains with highly skewed positive returns pay em…
Cities, matching and the productivity gains of agglomeration
Stratification, Social Networks in the Labour Market, and Intergenerational Mobility
Young individuals, taking the locational choices made by their altruistic parents as given, decide whether or not to acquire skills. The use of location-specific word-of-mouth communication in the transmission of information about (skilled) job opportunities implies that the local social environment partly determines an individual's expected returns to education. Stratified equilibria, when they exist, are characterised by low intergenerational s…

Från "Mohrens sista suck" till "Unionen som sprack
The aim of the article is to present the cultural expression of the typical Swedish student farce (studentspex) as deserving of academic research. After a short definition of the concept "studentspex", several analytical tools are discussed as means of examining the subject. Among these are the Cultural Studies and the History of Ideas approaches as well as gender and genre perspectives. Furthermore special attention is paid to the possibility th…
Social Insurance with Risk‐Reducing Investments
A two‐sector model with sector‐dependent disability risks is presented. Working in the low‐risk sector requires skills that can be obtained by investments in education. Moral hazard precludes full insurance. The labour force allocation is responsive to the incentives created by a social insurance system. The rationale for intervention lies in the government's power to cross‐subsidize between the sectors, and it is demonstrated how the responsiven…
Time, Self-Selection and User Charges for Public Goods
Many public goods generate utility only when combined with a time-input. Important examples include road networks and publicly provided leisure facilities. If it is possible to charge for the time spent using the public good it is generally a second-best Pareto optimal policy to do so even in the absence of congestion. An optimal linear user charge is analyzed within a standard optimum income-tax framework. Second-best public good provision in th…
Varför rappar ingen om Norrland längre
Between 1982 and 1993 the folk music group Euskefeurat released six LPs and gave numerous live performances. As well as being entertaining they also played an important role as subversive cultural critics of the political and environmental circumstances in the north of Sweden, Norrland. This essay highlights three central themes in the lyric production of Euskefeurat: class conflicts, the relationship between centre and periphery and landscape as…
