I have studied and worked at SLU since 1999 and it is not without a feeling of nostalgia that I am closing my time as a student with this Masters thesis assignment. I have chosen a topic that I find very important and interesting and I believe this has helped me in the process of accomplishing the thesis. While I have been solely responible for the writing of this thesis, I would like to extend my thanks to the following people for their valuable contributions to the process in general. Cecilia Mark-Herbert from the Department of Economics at SLU has been my instructor and advisor. I am very happy that I have had the opportunity to work together with Cecilia, she has been very engaged in my task and shared her knowledge about the chosen research topic as well as her experiences as a researcher.
