Everyday insecurities: Expanding the security debate in Sweden

Research There has been a shift in the European security landscape in the past decade, as military security questions have taken an increasingly important place in the societal debate around security. This paper focuses on how military security risks marginalizing the everyday threats and insecurities faced by individuals to demonstrate how a gender analysis can introduce a new perspective to the public debate on security in Sweden.

Global Commons at Risk? Exploring Risks and Dilemmas of Deep-Sea Mining

Research With growing global demand for minerals, deep-sea mining has gained significant interest in the recent years. While the practise has not been deployed at large scale yet, recent time pressure in the International Seabed Authority can make commercial deep-sea mining a reality within just two years. Mining the seafloor comes with a range of risks and uncertainties, why stakeholders are divided on whether or how to proceed. Moreover, seafloor areas deemed especially resource rich lie outside national jurisdiction, bringing even more complex considerations to the issue. This paper explores the risks and dilemmas of deep-sea mining from the three perspectives of environmental harm, equity and interstate tensions. In doing so, the paper contributes to an understanding of the complex trade-offs governing new types of climate change technologies and illustrates the need for more robust governance of global commons.

Advocating for further integration: Europarties in the 2024 European Parliament elections

Research For decades, major Europarties like the EPP, PES, and ALDE have advocated increased EU integration, pushing for democratic and institutional strengthening. However, this paper, which features analysis of their 2024 election manifestos reveals, few concrete governance reform proposals. This may well indicate internal divisions. The Greens, though, standout with their federalist agenda. The paper explores factors influencing Europarties' stances and questions the commitment of national member parties. When national and EU-level campaigns diverge, it weakens Europarties' cohesion and influence.

Europe and the geopolitics of 6G

Research As global technological rivalry intensifies, 6G is poised to redefine power structures in telecommunications, with major implications for national security, economic leadership, and technological sovereignty. It is also one of the few remaining areas of strength for Europe, with China and the US otherwise dominating the tech scene. This report examines the geopolitical landscape of the battle for 6G, the stakes involved, and the positions of key actors, outlining possible scenarios for what a 6G future could look like. From a European vantage point, it argues how the EU can build on its strengths, accelerate its leadership in critical areas, and safeguard its interests using the economic security toolbox currently under development. ‘Europe and the geopolitics of 6G’ is the first in a series of in-depth analyses exploring the strategic, economic, and security dimensions of next-generation wireless technology. Future reports in this series will expand on key aspects of 6G development, including security challenges, regulatory frameworks, and the evolving standards that will shape the next era of digital connectivity. By providing critical insights into these issues, the series aims to inform policymakers, industry leaders, and researchers about the geopolitical stakes of 6G and the pathways toward the next generation of telecommunications. The 6G project at the Swedish Institute of International Affairs has been made possible by a grant from the Swedish Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

China’s legacy chip buildout: A new EU strategic dependency that needs de-risking?

China’s legacy chip buildout: A new EU strategic dependency that needs de-risking?

Older generations of semi-conductors, or "legacy chips", are now at the heart of the geopolitical rivalry between the US and China. The EU is worried about becoming too dependent on such chips from China, which are crucial for a wide range of sectors. The key issue is not overcapacity, but rather strategic importance. In this new UI Brief, Tim Rühlig argues that the EU should shift its focus from "protect" to combine it with "promote" and "partner" strategies. This means maintaining a strong global market share for European chip-makers, which includes ensuring access to the Chinese market. Additionally, the EU should diversify and expand the global supply of legacy chips by investing in third countries. Finally, it should bolster European technological strengths where they exist.

Nuclear arms control, non-proliferation and disarmament in the Nordic region: Lessons from the past and possible routes ahead

Nuclear arms control, non-proliferation and disarmament in the Nordic region: Lessons from the past and possible routes ahead

Forskning This UI Report examines the history of nuclear disarmament advocacy in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden to highlight current and future possibilities for Nordic cooperation in this area. The chapters on Denmark and Norway show how both countries have managed to balance their engagement in both conventional and ambitious disarmament initiatives with their security commitments to NATO. Meanwhile, Finland has navigated its historic non-alignment policy by maintaining a pragmatic and gradualist approach to disarmament, whereas Sweden has advanced more comprehensive policies of nuclear disarmament that have diminished over time as the security context has shifted. Based on these findings, the report demonstrates how fostering Nordic cooperation in this area could leverage shared traditions and normative power to position the Nordics as a leading unit on nuclear disarmament and arms control, both within and outside of NATO. Against a security context of mounting nuclear threats, this could include more pragmatic initiatives around nuclear non-proliferation, risk reduction and de-escalation, utilizing existing disarmament infrastructure like the Stockholm Initiative and focusing especially on security in the Baltic and Arctic regions. Although limitations in scope and expertise prevented the inclusion of Iceland in this report, future studies are encouraged to address this important gap.

Last Democracy Standing? Civil Society and Politics in Indonesia

Last Democracy Standing? Civil Society and Politics in Indonesia

Research In May 1998, the rule of Soeharto ended and Indonesia embarked on a path toward democracy. The democratisation process meant that there are now elections at all levels of government. Decentralisation policies further devolved power from Jakarta all the way to cities and districts. While the aim was to strengthen the nation but over time it has become clear that very small administrative units often have inadequate administrative capacity to manage the responsibilities. Civil society developed alongside the formal institutions to complement them. This report describes the democratic trajectory, examines future scenarios for civil society and democracy in Indonesia, and discusses how democratic backsliding might be avoided.

Diluting the Partnership Potential? Knowledge-gaps and Views on India in Sweden

India is a prioritised partner for Sweden, and a country with which the Swedish government aspire to expand cooperation. Yet, as shown by this report, the Swedish public express overall limited knowledge about India, which is echoed by Swedish businesses. While recognising India's growing global importance and developed economy, only a third support expanded cooperation, with over 40% unsure. Media coverage of India is declining from low levels and is currently closely related to reporting on the war in Ukraine. The ambivalence with regards to India may hinder political efforts to strengthen ties, as misconceptions and ignorance persist. The report also suggests ways to increase knowledge across sectors.
