- This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book provides presentation of the work of the economists who received the 2019 Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel. It deals almost exclusively with poverty within a nation, with the situation of individuals in society. The book explores the perspective to a comparison between nations, rich versus poor nations, and to the mechanisms which make for differences between national income levels. It identifies and examines what he had to say about the nature, origin, and possible solution of poverty. The book discusses poverty in the context of criticism of socialism, and the authors explain why this is so. It provides a discussion of the causes of poverty and its possible remedies, according to Hayek.

- Ethnic discrimination is common in labor and housing markets. It leads to lower wages and higher unemployment for ethnic minorities, to segregation in the labor market, and to residential segregation. Several studies show that the Covid-19 pandemic increased the extent of ethnic discrimination. The prejudice against hiring migrants may have increased because people from countries where the epidemic started or from countries with a lower vaccination coverage were blamed for the spread. It may also have increased in the cases where the Covid-19 pandemic led to higher unemployment making it less costly for employers to discriminate.

Does nitrogen dioxide affect inflammatory markers after nasal allergen challenge?
- 2005
-
Ingår i: American Journal of Rhinology. - : SAGE Publications. - 1050-6586 .- 1539-6290. ; 19:6, s. 560-566

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- BACKGROUND: Exposure to high ambient levels of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) enhances the bronchial inflammatory reaction to allergen in humans. We tested whether this NO2 effect occurs also in the upper airways. METHODS: Sixteen allergic subjects with rhinitis and mild asthma were exposed at rest to either purified air or 500 microg/m3 NO2 for 30 minutes, followed 4 hours later by a nasal allergen challenge. Nasal lavage was performed before air/NO2 exposure, before allergen challenge, and 1, 4 and 18 hours after allergen challenge. Symptoms were recorded. RESULTS: The percentage of eosinophils and neutrophils, eosinophil cationic protein, and myeloperoxidase were similar after exposure to air + allergen and to NO2 + allergen. We noticed a tendency to increased sneezing the day after exposure to NO2 + allergen. CONCLUSION: The priming effect of an ambient brief NO2 exposure on subsequent allergic response was not noticeable in activation of inflammatory cells and mediators in the upper airways.

Hayek, welfarism, and the deserving poor

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Hayek sees poverty in its absolute sense as a factual problem, which the society has an obligation to deal with. Relative poverty, on the other hand, is not a problem with which the state should be concerned. Hayek approves the use of redistribution to decrease absolute poverty. However, redistribution of income for the sake of greater material equality would necessarily imply unequal treatment of men. This means that individuals will be used to fulfill the aims of other individuals; they will not be free. To Hayek, this is inacceptable. Other than the helping of the deserving poor to overcome poverty in its absolute sense, Hayek did not write much on poverty. The explanation for that is that Hayek viewed the problem of poverty mostly as a problem of the absence of prosperity. To Hayek, there is only one way to abolish poverty in the long run, and it is to make the society generally prosperous. A prosperous society is a society in continuous progress where all knowledge is put to its best use. Only in a free society, where the reward for supplying a good or service corresponds to the value it has to other individuals, will all knowledge come to use.

Ett forskningsinstitut expanderar : IUI från 1950 till 1966
- 2019. - 1
-
Bok (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- 2014 publicerades Ett forskningsinstitut växer fram – IUI från grundandet till 1950. I den här boken fortsätter historien om Industriens Utredningsinstitut (numera Institutet för Näringslivsforskning). Den period som behandlas är 1950–66, en period då institutet leddes av dynamiska chefer, Jan Wallander (1953–61) och Ragnar Bentzel (1961–66), och dess ställning som Sveriges ledande fristående forskningsinstitut befästes.Det som främst karakteriserade IUI:s verksamhet under dessa år var förmågan att hitta relevanta forskningsämnen, ämnen som berörde en bred allmänhet, och behandla dem på ett vetenskapligt högkvalitativt sätt. Inte sällan ställdes etablerade ”sanningar” på huvudet. På IUI gjordes de första studierna av svensk inkomstfördelning och av det svenska konsumtionsmönstret, den första input-outputanalysen för Sverige, de första ekonomiska undersökningarna av svensk populärpress och reklam samt kontroversiella studier av två sönderreglerade sektorer: bostads- och jordbruksmarknaderna.Precis som under institutets första period rekryterades medarbetare som med tiden fick framträdande positioner i universitetsvärlden, näringslivet och media. Bengt Höglund, Odd Gulbrandsen, Assar Lindbeck, Karl Jungenfelt, Gunnar Törnqvist, Bengt Rundblad, Leif Mutén, Lars Nabseth, Göran Albinsson och Åke Ortmark kom alla till IUI mellan 1950 och 1966.

Ingvar Svennilson on economic planning in war and peace
- 2017

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- During the transition from a wartime to a peacetime economy in the mid-1940s, Sweden experienced a heated debate on economic planning in which a number of Sweden's leading economists were involved. In 1941, Ingvar Svennilson, a member of the so-called Stockholm school of economists, became the head of the Industrial Institute of Economic and Social Research, founded by Swedish industry. During the following years he wrote extensively on the issue of economic planning. Although this issue was ideologically explosive, he managed to strike a balance which earned him respect in most camps. His focus gradually shifted from central planning during the war, toward framework planning and indicative planning after the war, when he designed the first Swedish long-term survey.

'Like Locusts on the Mississippi' : A Pioneer Study of the Expansion of the Swedish Public Sector
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Statsvetenskaplig tidskrift. - 0039-0747. ; 122:2, s. 161-182
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- In 1962, the first thorough investigation into the expansion of the Swedish public sector was presented as a doctoral dissertation by Erik Höök. This article investigates the origin and reception of this thesis. Höök’s work has been consid ered a standard work of financial statistics. However, it attracted heavy criticism in the media and from other academics for having explained the public sector expansion as being almost exclusively driven by demand, neglecting the supply side and the role of politicians. Liberals, Conservatives and Social Democrats all reacted – although for different reasons – against the idea that an ever-growing welfare state was fated. The debate thus revolved around what would eventually, by James Buchanan, be designated as responsive (demand-driven) and excessive (supply-driven) public sector expansion. Höök was furthermore optimistic about the prospects of increased public sector productivity and sceptical towards Ingvar Svennilson’s ‘Iron Law of Costs’, a precursor of William Baumol’s Cost Disease.

Reaching the Poor: Some Observations on Formal and Informal Credit in Haiti
- 2007

Ingår i: Savings and Development. - : Giordano Dell'amore Foundation. - 0393-4551. ; 31:2, s. 113-130
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The article traces the evolution of credit to the poor in Haiti, mainly from the 1950s to the present. Two phases may be distinguished. The first one, characterized on the one hand by the dominance of informal lenders and on the other by unsuccessful efforts sponsored by the government to reach the peasant majority, extends from the beginning of the 1950s until the end of the 1970s. This was a period of failure from the point of view of formal credit, with a number of institutions that lent little to the needy and which had to be closed down for financial reasons. The second period, from the beginning of the 1980s to the present time, has seen the evolution of a new institutional framework: that of organized micro credits, mainly in urban areas, beginning in the capital and gradually extending into provincial towns as well. This approach is much more promising than the old one, and possibly it can be extended ito rural areas as well.

Understanding Statin-Roxadustat Drug–Drug-Disease Interaction Using Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling
- 2023
-
Ingår i: Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics. - : John Wiley & Sons. - 0009-9236 .- 1532-6535. ; 114:4, s. 825-835
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- A different drug–drug interaction (DDI) scenario may exist in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) compared with healthy volunteers (HVs), depending on the interplay between drug–drug and disease (drug-drug-disease interaction (DDDI)). Physiologically-based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modeling, in lieu of a clinical trial, is a promising tool for evaluating these complex DDDIs in patients. However, the prediction confidence of PBPK modeling in the severe CKD population is still low when nonrenal pathways are involved. More mechanistic virtual disease population and robust validation cases are needed. To this end, we aimed to: (i) understand the implications of severe CKD on statins (atorvastatin, simvastatin, and rosuvastatin) pharmacokinetics (PK) and DDI; and (ii) predict untested clinical scenarios of statin-roxadustat DDI risks in patients to guide suitable dose regimens. A novel virtual severe CKD population was developed incorporating the disease effect on both renal and nonrenal pathways. Drug and disease PBPK models underwent a four-way validation. The verified PBPK models successfully predicted the altered PKs in patients for substrates and inhibitors and recovered the observed statin-rifampicin DDIs in patients and the statin-roxadustat DDIs in HVs within 1.25- and 2-fold error. Further sensitivity analysis revealed that the severe CKD effect on statins PK is mainly mediated by hepatic BCRP for rosuvastatin and OATP1B1/3 for atorvastatin. The magnitude of statin-roxadustat DDI in patients with severe CKD was predicted to be similar to that in HVs. PBPK-guided suitable dose regimens were identified to minimize the risk of side effects or therapeutic failure of statins when co-administered with roxadustat.

Ideology as a determinant of economic systems : Nyerere and ujamaa in Tanzania
- 1989
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Incentives are not always of an economic kind, Stefan Hedlund and Mats Lundahl stress in this study of the role of ideology in Tanzanian development.The first part of the study offers a general discussion of the relation of goals, incentives and ideology in the economic systems context. the role of incentives in economic systems is presented. a classification of systems according to their goal structure is made. Ideology as a system determinant and the connection between ideology and incentives are discussed.The second part deals with the emergence of Nyerere's concept of African socialism and how this ideology influenced the incentive structure in the Tanzanian economy after the Arusha Declaration in 1967.The third and final part discusses the practical problems of implementing the economic strategy dictated by the socialist ideology in connection with the ujamaa drive and the subsequent villagization program.

A ‘Low-Road’ Approach to the Haitian Apparel Sector
- 2021
-
Annan publikation (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The paper analyzes the need for structural change in the Haitian economy, an economy where the majority make their living in agriculture – a sector characterized by a severe erosion problem. It is argued that tourism does not offer any solution, other than possibly in the long run. The only alternative is export-based industrialization, since Haiti is a small and poor country. Its comparative advantage rests on an abundant supply of unskilled labor and exports are heavily concentrated to the apparel sector. This comparative advantage is reinforced by advantageous access to the United States market. Unfortunately, the expected employment effects have not materialized so far and wages are low in the sector. Still, employment there makes a contribution to the household economy, together with remittances from Haitians abroad. The apparel sector provides employment at a wage which is higher than the one in agriculture or the urban informal sector. Raising wages above the level prevailing in competing countries is difficult, but employment can potentially be expanded, but Haiti’s bad business climate does not attract investors. Here, the government plays a central role. Haiti’s infrastructure is bad and the Haitian state has always displayed strong predatory features.
