The Independence party's EU policy affected by funds from the fisheries sector

This is a very interesting BA-thesis that Hörður Unnsteinsson, a student of mine, wrote this spring. Hörður analysed the Independence party's opposition to the EU and came to the conclusion that the funds that the party and its members receive from the fisheries sector might be factor in explaining the party's opposition. The thesis 'Sjálfstæðið eða sjávarútvegurinn? Greining á andstöðu Sjálfstæðisflokksins við aðild að Evrópusambandinu' has received public attention and was for example covered by the Icelandic National Radio and the in the radio programme Harmageddon.
