Automation, digitalization and smart software fundamentally reshape the employment structure of post-industrial societies. The share of routine jobs is constantly shrinking while non-routine jobs at both ends of the skill distribution tend to grow. We contend that the existing political science literature has not sufficiently connected the distributive implications of technological change with contemporary political disruptions. The fact that disadvantages are strongly concentrated among blue- and white-collar routine workers in the lower middle class is of crucial importance. Routine workers are a large and electorally relevant group with all the necessary means for political participation. Increasingly bleak prospects in the labor markets of tomorrow create a demand for social, cultural, and economic protectionism. Socially conservative parties in general and right-wing populist parties in particular have recognized the electoral potential of disaffected routine workers and skillfully address and acknowledge their anxieties. We conclude that a lower middle class no longer protected from the vagaries of economic modernization is a potential electoral game changer.

History of Euro-Arab relations is full of with troubled, tragic, stressed but also optimistic and sanguine occasions. Through the ages, people of the Europe and the Middle East have lived together and interacted, by trading, negotiating, and conquering each other. Within the framework of constantly developing international law, diplomacy and universal respect rules, however, the spirit of cooperation and partnership has started to be lived and strengthened between two civilizations. In this sense, two regional organizations, the European Union, and the Gulf Cooperation Council are coming forward with their unique institutional characteristics. In last 3 decades, these two organizations succeeded many remarkable missions, created highly profitable economic relations, practiced very valuable commercial interacts, and harvested significant acquisitions from each other’s political, and economic backgrounds. However, mentioning about the creation of a complete alliance is impossible. Due to many obstacles and even sometimes due to preferential choices; the two actors could/did not unlock their potentials for a fully-fledged cooperation and collaboration processes. Therefore, the nature of the bilateral relations between Europe and Gulf has taken a highly eccentric and strange shape which is both powerful and concrete, and also weak and intangible. Nonetheless, despite of all drawbacks and unknown points; it is possible to anticipate more positive and brighter implications in the future and to be optimistic about the tomorrow of the relations between the parties, because of the necessity of comprehensive cooperation. In this paper, the relations between parties will be analysed with their positive and negative aspects under the context international cooperation by focusing legal treaties between them and other platforms that parties met.

Participatory evaluation of aspiring sustainable schools and their pedagogical potential has recently come into focus. A few authors have made a significant start in examining schools as both environmentally and socially sustainable environments, which might simultaneously represent the ‘third teacher’. However, discussion around this idea is new in Spain. This paper describes a participatory post-occupancy study conducted with teachers and pupils in Fort Pienc School, Barcelona, Spain. Findings reveal the pedagogical potential of the school’s spaces and fabric, characterised as ‘sustainable’, and highlight the aspects that the research participants feel are performing and underperforming. The paper concludes that if we want sustainable schools to be a strategy for renovating the educational process and for leading us towards a better tomorrow globally and locally, new models for exploring the pedagogical potential of sustainable schools should be developed and the efforts of all relevant parties synchronised; from architects to governments, from pupils to teachers.

The 1MDB stands for 1Malaysia Development Berhad. It is a company formed in 2009 by the federal government of Malaysia. 1MDB had become such a problem for many by late 2014. And today a year later the sad and debilitating saga continues unabated. The case of the 1MDB should be of a particular interest for students and scholars of auditing, accounting and corporate governance since it involves the following: the alleged disappearance of a huge amount of company’s funds; the apparent hiding of significant amount of real losses year after year with the accounting of paper profits originated from repeated fair revaluations of properties or other assets; the possibility of repeated cases of audit failure; the probe conducted by various parties locally which include the Office of the Auditor General; and, the lack of evidence of best practices in corporate governance being implemented since its formation. Each of these five areas of concern is laid bare in a series of five case studies where the materials come mainly from three news portals which are based inside the country: MalaysiaKini, The Malaysian Insider and Free Malaysia Today. All the published materials of concern are dated up to the end of June 2015. It is also notable that following the completion of these case studies, the work on another series of case studies shall be embarked upon. The new series shall give focus upon what has taken place since early July 2015. The intention behind the writing of these cases is to have them used in classroom discussions to help towards the emergence ofMalaysia tomorrow that so many inside the country has embarked upon so that history is given as little chance as possible in repeating itself!

Electronic Scientific Journal Intellectualization of Logistics and Supply Chain Management #1 2020 1, no. 3 (October 30, 2020): 83–98. http://dx.doi.org/10.46783/smart-scm/2020-3-8.
Full textAbstract:
The article considers one of the directions of digital transformation, namely digital platforms. United Nations Conference on Trade and Development says that digital platforms create new opportunities for companies of all sizes to engage in trade. They can lead to efficiency gains through lower transaction costs and reduced information asymmetries supported by rating systems. Other benefits include lower consumer prices, increased market access, more competition, better use of underutilized resources and increased flexibility for the providers of services. However, gains are not automatic, and there are growing concerns over the rising market power of certain platforms and the related implications for competition, data protection and ownership, consumer protection and taxation and employment policies. Economic policies and regulations will need to maximize the benefits while at the same time minimizing the costs of digital platforms. Accordingly to Digital Economy Report 2019 by UNCTAD digital platforms provide the mechanisms for bringing together a set of parties to interact online. A distinction can be made between transaction platforms and innovation platforms. Transaction platforms are two/multi-sided markets with an online infrastructure that supports exchanges between a number of different parties. They have become a core business model for major digital corporations (such as Amazon, Alibaba, Facebook and eBay), as well as for those that are supporting digitally enabled sectors (such as Uber, Didi Chuxing or Airbnb). Innovation platforms create environments for code and content producers to develop applications and software in the form of, for example, operating systems (e.g. Android or Linux) or technology standards (e.g. MPEG video). Several factors help explain the rapid rise to dominance of these digital giants. The first is related to network effects (i.e. the more users on a platform, the more valuable it becomes for everyone). The second is the platforms’ ability to extract, control and analyses data. As with network effects, more users mean more data, and more data mean a stronger ability to outcompete potential rivals and capitalize on first-mover advantages. Thirdly, once a platform begins to gain traction and starts offering different integrated services, the costs to users of switching to an alternative service provider start to increase. The transformative power of data in the sphere of economic and social interactions means that governments, businesses, and people must adapt to use emerging opportunities and avoid traps and risks. The ability of countries and various stakeholders to master digital transformation varies greatly and depends on their level of development and digital readiness. Developed countries are in many ways better equipped to deal with the growing role of digital platforms than countries with limited resources and capabilities. The aviation, travel and tourism industry has been at the forefront of digital innovation, but industry and technology trends suggest that further change lies ahead. The sector has been an early adopter of digital technologies and platforms, but steep demand for travel, driven by a growing middle class in emerging markets and the increasing importance of digital experiences, implies that further digitalization will be vital if the expectations of tomorrow’s consumers are to be met.

Today the political visibility of the Paris Commune is not at all evident. At least, that is, if what we mean by "today" is the moment when we have to take up the challenge of thinking politics outside its subjection to the state and outside the framework of parties or party.… And yet the Commune was a political sequence that, precisely, did not situate itself in such a subjection or in such a framework. [To tackle] the political facts and determinations of the Commune…[it is necessary to utilize] a completely different method…[than that of the classical interpretation].

JAPANNew challenges face the robot industry of tomorrow. ‘It is estimated that the Japanese robot industry increased its production to Yen550billion in 1997,’ writes Seiuemon Inaba, Chairman of the Japan Robot Association in his New Year message . ‘This is 17% up over the preceding year, due chiefly to the rapid recovery of exports, in addition to the active domestic demand that has continued since 1996. The figures also reflect a firm trend of capital investment. ’ Although rec ent economic conditions have led to some uncertainties about future developments of the business climate, the industry's production in 1998 is likely to regain the Yen600billion level, an all-time high which was reached in the previous peak period,' he adds. ‘In respect of the fundamental economic and social needs for robots in Japan, we believe it is essential to further development of the nation's manufacturing industry-based economy that steps are taken to meet the requirements of industry, particularly in the strengthening of its international competitive abilities through the improvement of productivity and the establishment of a more efficient production system, ' writes Mr Inaba. ’In addition, the industry is called on to meet various other requirements, including measures to compensate for the shortage of skilled workers, the development of an intellectual, comfortable working environment to arrest the tendency of young workers to defect from the manufacturing sector , the release of workers from the so-called ‘three-D (dangerous, dirty and difficult) jobs, and the reduction of working hours,' declares Mr Inaba. ‘These requirements are expected to bring about mid-to-long-term active demand for automat ion equipment, especially robots and factory automation systems,’ writes Mr Inaba. ‘At present robots are used mostly in the conventional manufacturing industy, but in the years ahead, their application will be expanded to the personal sector, covering household uses and support systems for the daily life of the elderly and handicapped, as well as to non-manufacturing industries, including construction, nuclear power, ocean development, medical care and services.’ Mr Inaba adds: ‘St renuous research and development efforts for high technologies are essential to meeting such a wide range of economic and social needs in Japan. Among 15 new and growth sectors covered by a government programme for economic restructuring and creation, pre-arrangements are being made for a research and development project on ‘human co-operating and coexi sting robots’ for which the programme calls on interested parties to immediately set about development and commercialisation tasks. The robot industry intends to participate actively in the project when it comes to the implementation stage. “Thus the Japan Robot Association intends to carry out actively on various operations aimed at further development of the industry. For this purpose, we request the competent government agencies and other interested parties for continued guidance, assistance and co-operation” concludes Mr Inaba.

En 1965, Andy Warhol, déjà célèbre pour ses tableaux, décide de s’aventurer dans le domaine de la musique pop. Il devient alors gérant du Velvet Underground, un groupe rock newyorkais. Ce mémoire vise à rendre compte de l’influence de Warhol sur l’évolution musicale de cette formation entre 1965 et 1967. Dans un premier temps, une description du contexte socio-historique de l’époque et du milieu étudié est présentée, ainsi qu’un résumé des réalisations respectives de l’artiste et du groupe. Deux chansons du Velvet Underground sont ensuite analysées, soit « I’m Waiting for the Man » et « Ail Tomorrow’s Parties », toutes deux enregistrées à deux reprises soit avant et après la collaboration du groupe avec Warhol. Les éléments nouveaux ou transformés apparus dans les secondes versions sont alors répertoriés et comparés aux procédés utilisés par Warhol, ce qui permet d’évaluer l’influence de ce dernier sur l’évolution musicale du groupe.Québec Université Laval, Bibliothèque 2019

Abstract: This thesis aims to explore how utopian desires re/shape the posthuman, cyberspace and histories by means of information technologies in William Gibson’s Idoru and All Tomorrow’s Parties, which construct a fragmented but subversive power by representing the world in a utopian text that allows the free play of ideology. Gibson uses utopian imagination to cobble together a near future that reflects his concern with information technologies and media over contemporary society. Utopian imaginations on the one hand open up possibilities and transform fixed ideas; on the other, utopian imaginations are easily turned into utopian desires that are subject to manipulation if utopian designers want to sell. I intend to discover how desires to realize a utopia (body, space, and history), which is the ultimate goal of utopian program, are being manipulated by utopian designers. I will mainly adapt and blend Katherine Hayles’s notion of the posthuman perspectives to challenge human possibilities, Donna Haraway’s notion of the cyborg as a blasphemy to Western traditions, Louis Marin’s Disneyland analysis as an apparatus to examine utopic expressions in William Gibson’s textual constructions of utopias, and Walter Benjamin’s notions of material historiography and history’s messianic power in tracing individual memories under a capitalist contextualized History. In Chapter One, I will argue that Idoru as well as Idoru metamorphosize from a dialectical structure into an informational pattern-random structure, from a commodity into a posthuman subjectivity. I will adopt Katherine Hayles’s concept of information narratives in explaining the re/shaping of Rei’s body and her concept of the posthuman to explicate the struggle between the posthuman and the transhuman. In Chapter Two I will argue that cyberspace serves as a utopia that brings forth the desire to transcend the flesh. This utopian desire is a transgressive discourse that breaks up the totality of a closed system. Moreover, cyberspace exposes the feedback looping of the discourses of capitalism and anti-capitalism. Respectively, by the representation of virtual Venice and the Walled City, these two utopias write proposals that project discourses of pleasure and criticism for achieving their programs. I will adopt Donna Haraway’s cyborg ontology in explaining cyberspace as a transgressive discourse and Louis Marin’s Disneyland analysis as an apparatus of utopic expressions and the limits of utopia. Next, in Chapter Three, I shall expose how Harwood the capitalist manipulates the world to fit into his utopian proposal: modernization of the city as a manifestation of a utopia by means of cyberspace as a network that connects people globally. To contravene Harwood, Idoru, Laney and the Walled City denizens collaborate to checkmate Harwood’s king. I will elaborate on the interactions between the universal history and the individual histories based on Walter Benjamin’s concept of history.

Full textAbstract:
Vernacular architecture represents a great resource that has considerable potential to define principles for sustainable design and contemporary architecture. This publication is the result of an overall aim to produce a valuable tool for analysis regarding vernacular heritage through different assessments, in order to define principles to consider for sustainable development. This was possible through a comprehensive reflection on the principles established and the strategies to recognise in different world contexts. The present publication was the result of an in-depth approach by 46 authors from 12 countries, concerned with the analysis and critical assessment of vernacular heritage and its sustainable perspective. The book presents 8 chapters addressing operational definitions and synopses advances, regarding the main areas of vernacular heritage contribution to sustainable architecture. It also presents 15 chapters and 53 case studies of vernacular and contemporary approaches in all the 5 continents, regarding urban, architectural, technical and constructive strategies and solutions. VERSUS, HERITAGE FOR TOMORROW: Vernacular Knowledge for Sustainable Architecture is the result of a common effort undertaken by the partners ESG | Escola Superior Gallaecia, Portugal, as Project leader; CRAterre | École Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture de Grenoble, France; DIDA | Università degli Studi di Firenze, Italy; DICAAR | Università degli Studi di Cagliari, Italy; and UPV | Universitat Politècnica de València, Spain. This is the final outcome of VerSus, an European project developed from 2012 to 2014, in the framework of the Culture 2007-2013 programme.

Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, who bears an uncanny resemblance to her grandmother, Indira Gandhi, in both her looks and mannerisms, surprised everybody by announcing her formal entry into politics only in 2019. She chose to take on the party’s most daunting challenge—to revive its organization and fortunes in the critical state of Uttar Pradesh, as the General Secretary of All India Congress Committee (AICC). Even though she stayed away from politics voluntarily for many years, Priyanka understands the challenges Congress faces in Uttar Pradesh. She appears to have taken it upon herself to revive the Congress party’s fortunes in Uttar Pradesh, India’s largest state, and perhaps the only route available to the Congress if it seeks to return to power in Delhi.

Her father was a cabinet minister and Congress stalwart. She is president of the All India Mahila Congress, the Congress party’s women’s wing, Sushmita is acutely aware of the challenges that women face, arguing that a woman’s journey in politics is more difficult than that of a man at every step of the way. Yet, she rejects a lot of measures aimed at women empowerment as pure ‘tokenism’.

Full textAbstract:
Actively caring for the environment is an issue that prevails in the international debate, and our country takes part on this argument. One aspect of environmental deterioration is, with no doubt, atmospheric pollution; a constant in modern societies, which, in the attempt to find growth and development, impact the natural and urban environment they inhabit. A distinctive feature of commercial and economic exchange are the strategic cities, so-called capitals, in addition to the territories where coastal tourism predominates as an engine of regional human development. In this balance, which is far from being sustainable and fair, an exponential consumer market dominates and generates the progressive increase in the use of fossil fuels. The former being emitted into the atmosphere, in such a way that they alter chemical composition and cause harmful air quality. In addition, the territory is impacted, intoxicating the soil and water, which are the final deposit. The objective of this work is to determine the temporal behavior of atmospheric pollutants in the city of Tepic, Nayarit, Mexico and to identify the dominant pollution indicators considering the international and national context. Through the statistical analysis of the databases of particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers, particles smaller than 10 micrometers and carbon monoxide, the behaviors of these pollutants in the study area were obtained. Among the most significant results, particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers showed maximum levels outside the norm almost all year round, with values reaching 170 micrograms per cubic meter. On the other hand, the particles smaller than 10 micrometers presented satisfactory levels in their average behavior; however, the maximum concentrations remained outside the official Mexican standard. Regarding the analysis of CO, a behavior within the maximum permissible limits of protection for the population was reported; Nevertheless, by favoring the formation of tropospheric ozone, its contribution is significant, especially when the atmosphere is highly photo-reactive. This research can be used as a timely tool for mitigation of climate change, where the results contribute to the review and rethinking of public management of the environment towards sustainable development.

Abstract: The rapid emergence of versatile new technologies strongly influences the big changes in contemporary society. In this context, people have an important position and role to play as individuals and members of various organizations. This development provides opportunities for well-being but also means big challenges to the existing occupations and working conditions and involves risks to information security and people’s privacy. Also at the same time, human-machine relations have become an interesting topic of discussion. 'Quality Society' is a comprehensive concept that implies a society of high quality, which means a well-functioning and well-developing society that largely satisfies the needs and expectations of all interested parties of the society. Quality Society aims at a holistic perspective to consider societal development in a proactive and human way. This article also discusses, as an example, the East-West Quality Society Initiative (EWQSI), a cross-border collaboration founded and started between Finland and Russia, which consists of the intercultural scientific and artistic entities and lifelong learning to stimulate the sustained societal quality in the conditions of the 4th industrial revolution and smart society. This initiative provides opportunities for open cross-border partnering and takes into account the multidisciplinary interests of practitioners and experts to advance the open science and arts and impact on society. Sažetak: Brza pojava svestranih novih tehnologija snažno utječe na velike promjene u suvremenom društvu. U tom kontekstu, ljudi imaju važno mjesto i ulogu kao pojedinci i članovi različitih organizacija. Ovakav razvoj pruža mogućnosti za dobrobit, ali predstavlja i velike izazove postojećim zanimanjima i radnim uvjetima i uključuje rizike za informacijsku sigurnost i privatnost ljudi. Istovremeno, odnosi čovjeka i stroja postali su zanimljiva tema rasprave. „Kvalitetno društvo“ je sveobuhvatan koncept koji podrazumijeva društvo visoke kvalitete, što podrazumijeva društvo koje dobro funkcionira i dobro razvijajuće društvo koje u velikoj mjeri zadovoljava potrebe i očekivanja svih zainteresiranih strana u društvu. Društvo kvalitete ima za cilj holističku perspektivu promatranja društva i društvenog razvoja na proaktivan i ljudski način. Ovaj članak donosi primjer Inicijative društva za kvalitet Istok-Zapad (EWQSI), prekograničnu suradnju koja je osnovana i započeta između Finske i Rusije, a sastoji se od interkulturalnih znanstvenih i umjetničkih cjelina i cjeloživotnog učenja kako bi se potaknulo održivo društvo kvalitete u uvjetima 4. industrijske revolucije i pametnog društva. Ova inicijativa pruža mogućnosti za otvoreno prekogranično partnerstvo i uzima u obzir multidisciplinarne interese praktičara i stručnjaka za unapređenje otvorene znanosti i umjetnosti i utjecaja na društvo.
