Abstract:

The World Bank, one of the largest global health funders, continues to deny a formal legal obligation for human rights. Internal constraints limit the Bank’s ability to do so, since its Articles of Agreement explicitly forbid it from interfering in a country’s internal political affairs, making it unclear whether human rights risk management is within the institution’s mandate. This stands in contrast to the institution’s commitment to human rights, as reflected in its commitment to helping countries achieve universal health coverage and in its “twin goals” of ending extreme poverty and promot

Abstract:

This chapter begins by discussing the three overlapping capital requirements that banks are subject to. The first is the orthodox Basel capital requirement. The second is the Leverage Ratio, which is simply a non-risk-weighted capital requirement. The third is the stress test requirement. This has historically been the largest of the three. Stress testing identifies a particular probable state of the world, estimates the total loss which would occur if that state of the world were to eventuate, and requires capital sufficient to ensure that the bank retains sufficient capital after suffering t

Abstract:

The chapter describes the historical process as well as the analytical and empirical factors that, at the end of the twentieth century, led to the dominance, in advanced economies, of a central bank model based on an independent institution devoted to price stability as its overriding objective. The central bank pre-crisis model was elegant, performing, and efficient. However, it could not easily accommodate the pursuit of a traditionally important central bank objective: financial stability. Indeed, since central banks have, in essence, just one tool, that is, the interest rate, the pursuit o

Abstract:

The central banking model prevailing before the Great Recession suffered six hits during the crisis. First, new financial stability responsibilities created dilemmas in the use of the interest rate. Second, quantitative easing blurred the borders between monetary and fiscal policy. Third, the action to support banks and, in the euro-area, peripheral sovereigns created moral hazard. Fourth, the ECB had to take on itself the task of preserving the euro. Fifth, the ECB had to participate in the so-called troika. Sixth, both the Fed and the ECB had to adopt a more global perspective. This chapter

When Harold Schuknecht arrived at Harvard in 1961, he immediately set up a temporal bone laboratory and began collecting specimens. Schuknecht obtained two specimens from patients with a typical clinical picture of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV). In these specimens, Schuknecht identified a prominent granular basophilic staining mass attached to the cupula of the left posterior semicircular canal. Based on his findings, Schuknecht coined the term “cupulolithiasis” (“stones on the cupula”) to explain the clinical syndrome of BPPV. He assumed that substances having a specific gravity

Chapter 5, “Bringing Back the Dead: Shakespeare’s Alcestis,” argues that, after incorporating Greek tragic women into comedies, Shakespeare increasingly drew on these figures to merge tragic and comic structures in plays featuring miraculous recoveries from apparent deaths. Plays such as Much Ado About Nothing, Pericles, and The Winter’s Tale not only dramatize women’s miraculous return to life from apparent death, but also link these recoveries with the performance of female lament, which elicits sympathies and melts audiences into supportive alliances.

Nevertheless, there are a number of deviations from the best practices identified in the relevant standards.

Focusing on one of Australia’s most enigmatic bands, This Is Serious Mum (better known as TISM), Tyler Jenke forms an in-depth analysis of the anonymous, pseudonymous Melbourne collective’s rise to prominence and unlikely success on the popular music charts with their third album,Machiavelli and the Four Seasons(1995). Jenke details TISM’s origins as they slowly went from a bedroom concept to an u

Abstract:

Despite concerted efforts from our educators, administrators, and government, American education continues to struggle. The author of this work argues that the decline can be traced to censored curricula, inaccurate textbooks, test-driven evaluations, and increasing poverty among the student population. Under the definition of “failure” specified in the No Child Left Behind Act, more than 80 percent of American schools could currently be labeled as failing, while the quality of American education overall and our students’ performance continue to rank unfavorably against international competiti

Abstract:

Adult patients are presumed to possess decision-making capacity, but when they are unable to make their own decisions—which is especially frequent in the context of serious illness—ideally a surrogate decision-maker will be able to determine what the patient would have wanted (i.e., substituted judgment). Only when this is not possible is it necessary to fall back on what seems to be in the patient’s best interests. To foster patient autonomy, goals and values should be identified and documented in advance, such as in an advance directive, as well as a surrogate decision-maker named. This help

Abstract:

The concept of ‘sovereignty as responsibility’ is without question one of the foundations for the concept of the responsibility to protect (R2P). As United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon observed in 2008, R2P is built on the ‘positive and affirmative concept of sovereignty as responsibility—a concept developed by . . . Francis Deng, and his colleagues at the Brookings Institution more than a decade ago’. This chapter discusses how the concept of sovereignty as responsibility developed from discussions about governance in Africa and from the application of human rights standards to the p

Abstract:

The chapter asks if the British state is being hollowed out. It identifies four trends that are redrawing the boundaries of the state: privatization; alternative service delivery systems; the impact of the EU; and the new public management. The resulting problems include: fragmentation; accountability; catastrophe; central capability. It discusses the case for a return to bureaucracy. The Afterword shows the trends in public spending and public employment, the emergence of the ‘franchise state’, and austerity narrative mean that the pressures redrawing the boundaries of the state persist.

Abstract:

Through a discussion of the effects of cigarette smoking on both pain perception and other substance use, this chapter outlines the presentation of the benefits to the patient and reviews smoking cessation strategies. It begins with an epidemiological review of the higher prevalence of smoking among those with chronic pain syndromes, such as fibromyalgia, headache, and low back pain. The many adverse consequences of cigarette smoking for general health are identified, from enhanced osteoporosis to prolonged wound repair. Most strikingly, smoking is demonstrated to both exacerbate the experienc

Abstract:

The Crisis of Israel’s Democracy, 1948 - 2025: Origins, Developments, and Consequences focuses on Israeli democracy, its deep historical origins, development over seven decades, long-term consequences, and possible resolutions. While most commentaries on Israel’s crisis focus on the proposals for judicial reform by the Netanyahu government, this study focuses on what it identifies as the fundamental problems of the Israeli regime—its ethnonational (rather than liberal-democratic) form, its lack of a written constitution undermines the country’s deeply divided society, the greatly dysfunctional
