    Explaining regional problem definitions and policy solutions: a comparative account of regional organizations in climate and education policy
    This thesis is concerned with the distinct policy ideas of regional organizations (ROs) and how they come into being. It seeks to answer the following research questions: (1) How can regional ideas be explained? (2) What determines regional ideational outcomes and ideational change? I argue that variation and change of policy ideas over time can be explained with the way in which ROs mobilize local and regional anecdotal knowledge and combine it with global scientific knowledge available to them. New knowledge generated this way is a powerful driver of ideational change in ROs.

    Education Policy in Ghana – A Model Case for Development?
    This paper illuminates how different developments in Ghana’s national education system are related to global transformations in international politics, such as the rise and fall of various forms of political and economic socialism as well as decolonization. It traces education policy in Ghana regarding three dimensions, namely the development of Ghana’s education system over time, Ghana’s colonial past as well as its short phase under a socialist government, and contemporary international influences from actors such as IOs and development aid organizations. It then relates these findings to the inclusiveness and the scope of service of Ghanaian education policy, arguing that both colonialism and decolonization as well as the continuous involvement of international actors have had significant impact on inclusiveness in Ghana, especially regarding gender parity.
