Abstract:
This paper tests the hypothesis that there exists increasing clash between declining support to privatization of remaining state and social property, public services, infrastructure and natural resources among majority of respondents in Serbia, on the one hand, and the policy of imposition of privatization by domestic and international social actors interested in ?finalization? of privatization, on the other. The main method of research is secondary analysis of data pertaining to attitudes of representative samples of respondents in Serbia on private property and privatization gathered during surveys conducted in 1989, 2003. and 2012, in local and global social and historical context of accumulation of capital systemic crisis in global proportions. Research demonstrates that scarcity and insufficient comparability of survey data on attitudes towards private property and privatization, as well as ignoring of scarce findings by the decision making power centers, are socially structured by contradictory class interests of domestic and international social actors. In conclusion the author proposes the construction of a common core of a research instrument for longitudinal, on action oriented comparative research of socializing alternatives to privatization and its destructive effects in all sub-systems of social activity, in both former ?real socialist? as well as in present ?real capitalist? societies.

Abstract:
We discuss two-class voting procedures where voters are divided into classes and a separate majority is required in each class. Examples include Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings and some political mechanisms. We investigate how voting mechanisms aggregate information dispersed among voters when voters have conflicts of interests as well as different information regarding a proposal. We find that two-class voting provides a significant improvement over one-class voting in all situations where voters have significant conflicts of interests, and where the voters are relatively evenly divided between interest groups. However, two-class voting is inefficient absent conflicts of interests.

Abstract:
In this paper the nature of workers' support for economic competition between areas is explored, The connection between class relations and competition in space is theorised through a distinction between ‘structure’ and ‘system’ and through a specifically Marxist conception of competition. It is argued that workers' interests in spatial competition are contradictory and thus take diverse forms. These interests are analysed through a development of the capital-labour relation at successive levels of abstraction and in relation to different systems of competition, The role of economic differences between workers in exacerbating competition between them is explored. The class relations of growth coalitions are examined.

Abstract:
This thesis takes as its basic premise the need for more democratic educational structures and practices. By examining the restructuring of public secondary schooling provisions in New South Wales in the period after 1950 it argues that public schools in Australia are not democratic institutions. Rather than being democratic institutions public schools, it is maintained, reflect the private interests of members of so-called "professional and professionalizing groups", or, more precisely, of those with assets in credentials or assets in organization employed within monopoly capitalist enterprises and state enterprises. The employment domain of these groups is characterized by bureaucratic forms of control. The private interests of these groups are class interests in that they pertain to the maintenance of the material interests of those with assets in credentials and assets in organization through the monopoly of special knowledge and skills and reflect the class structure of a society in which monopoly capitalism has become the dominant economic, and, therefore, political and ideological, force. As the above outline suggests, in attempting to address the question of inequality in secondary schooling, marxist theories and categories, most notably those pertaining to class formation and class struggle, are drawn upon. In addition, the thesis maintains that the private interests of those with assets in credentials or assets in organization are "naturalized" in and through the ideology of individualism and of meritocracy. By examining the actual way in which the labour force was being restructured in the post-war period the thesis provides one avenue of critique of these constructions and attempts to demonstrate the limits of equality of opportunity in a class-based society.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the motivations of the Chinese middle class members to run for District-level people’s congress (DPC) elections in Shenzhen and Beijing in 2003. It is interested in exploring why the middle class members wanted to run for the DPC positions that do not have real political power in China, and how their behavior can influence political change in China. By systematically analyzing the candidates’ campaign speeches and activities, this study reveals that the major motivating factors behind the middle class candidates’ decision to run for the elections were to protect their property interests and their increasing desire to defend political rights. This thesis argues that the campaigners’ actions in Shenzhen and Beijing will affect the democratization process in China.

Abstract:
The purpose of this paper is to examine the causes of welfare state expansion, specifically the causes of welfare state expenditure of active labor market policy (ALMP). ALMP aims at reducing unemployment and increasing participation in the labor market. The field of political economy has long asked the question of why certain welfare states are characterized by generous social policy, while others are not. Several theories have been presented over the years, each providing new perspectives. The two theories that could be considered to be the most prominent are the Power Resource Theory, which centers on the importance of power resources of major classes, and the Varieties of Capitalism, which is more focused on the different needs of capitalists.The specific interest of this paper is the varying orientations of ALMP. It is argued that ALMP should not be understood as a homogenous concept, but instead as a category of policy which consists of a range of tools from which a government can choose. Analyzing the expenditure of these tools separately is thus of great importance for the development of a deeper understanding of the welfare state.Using regression analysis, I analyze which of the theories mentioned above is most strongly correlated to increased expenditure of ALMP. I use a total expenditure of ALMP, as is customary within the field, but I also include two other measures for specific tools of ALMP; incentive reinforcement programs and training programs.The results indicate that when looking at the total expenditure of ALMP the VoC approach appears to better explain the cause of welfare state expenditure. However, when including the measures for the specific tools of ALMP, the classic notion of VoC is confirmed only regarding incentive reinforcement programs, and contradicted regarding training programs. Moreover, the classic notion of PRT is confirmed regarding the expenditure of training programs, albeit with quite limited evidence. Also, the classic notion within PRT finds little support in the analysis of total expenditure of ALMP and the expenditure of incentive reinforcement programs. Only making a distinction between large and small welfare states is thus argued to be a simplification. Welfare states with similar levels of social expenditure might in fact differ significantly regarding actual policy preference.It is concluded that the continued disaggregation of ALMP is necessary in order to further the research field. Acknowledging the highly heterogeneous nature of ALMP is essential when understanding its expenditure.

Abstract:
Dans cette recherche, on analyse la question à savoir « comment les trois principaux types de groupes kurdes -nationale, religieuse et économique- coopèrent pour établir un consensus sur un objectif commun : une région politique kurde en Turquie ». En suivant la théorie du constructivisme, le modèle des Trois I, la sociologie de l'organisation et de la sociologie de l'action collective sont articulé pour examiner l'action collective kurde, qui est constamment reconstruite dans un contexte historiquement construit, qui est aussi constamment reconstruit par les dynamiques aux niveaux nationaux, transnationaux (géopolitiques), européens et mondiaux. Quant à la tâche empirique, on examine les conflits, les négociations, la coopération et le consensus de ces trois groupes kurdes sur la question kurde et l'influence des cinq dynamiques structurants mentionnés ci-dessus. La principale méthode utilisée dans ma recherche est l'analyse qualitative des entretiens en profondeur. Au niveau conclusion théorique, la recherche fait remarquable contribution aux théories et approches concernant les identités collectives et les groupes (étant groupe) collectives, l'État, le modèle des « Trois I », la dépendance au sentier, la géopolitique de la question kurde et l'européanisation. Au niveau empirique, la principale conclusion de l'étude est le fait que les groupes kurdes n’ont pas atteint de construire une organisation commune et des règles collectivement acceptées jusqu'ici. Les idées, les intérêts et les institutions des groupes ne sont pas équivalents ; et les intérêts particuliers des groupes ont pesé sur l'action collective dans la région kurde<br>In this research, I analyzed the question of “the three main types of Kurdish groups -national, religious and economic- cooperate to establish a consensus on a common purpose: a Kurdish political region in Turkey.” Following the theory of constructivism, the Three I model, the sociology of organization and the sociology of collective action are articulated to examine the Kurdish collective action, which the is constantly re-constructed in historically constructed context, which is also constantly re-constructed by dynamics at national, trans-national (geopolitical), European and global levels. As to the empirical task, I examined the conflicts, negotiations, cooperation and consensus of these three Kurdish groups regarding the Kurdish issue(s) and the influence of the above-mentioned five structuring dynamics. The principal method used in my research is the qualitative analysis of in-depth interviews. At the level of theoretical conclusion, the research makes remarkable contribution to the theories and approaches concerning the collective identities and groups(ness), the state, the “Three I” model, path dependency, the geopolitics of the Kurdish issue, and Europeanization. At the empirical level, the main conclusion of the research is the fact that the Kurdish groups have not achieved to build a common organization and accepted rules so far. The groups’ ideas, interests and institutions are not equivalent and the groups’ distinctive interests have weighed on the collective action in the Kurdish region

Abstract:
To teach a foreign language means to teach students to communicate both orally and in written form in this language. In order to achieve the proposed goals, the teacher must take into account that there are no students with an absolutely identical progression. Their interests, needs and way of learning may be similar, but differ depending on different factors. Students use in their self-training process various learning techniques. There are no two students who possess the same repertoire of behavior, and the same level of performance. The motivation in attaining the goals is also different. In this sense, differentiated teaching gives the teacher the opportunity to identify the heterogeneity of the class and respond to this diversity.

Abstract:
This research delves into the determinants impacting the research inclinations of undergraduate students in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) fields. Stemming from global concerns regarding a shortage of qualified STEM professionals, the study examines the dynamics surrounding the encouragement of STEM disciplines and career paths. Utilizing a survey of 472 undergraduate students, quantitative data was collected and subjected to statistical analyses to uncover significant variations in research interests based on factors such as gender, undergraduate discipline, motivations for pursuing STEM programs, and class attendance habits. The findings suggest a necessity to enhance the exposure of male students, particularly in engineering and technology subjects, to STEM fields. These insights contribute to a better understanding and approach to addressing challenges in fostering research interests among undergraduate students.

In this sense, the present study carried out an experimental research aiming to evaluate the physical, mechanical and thermal properties of polyamide 5.6 compared to polyamide 6.6. The developed polyamide 5.6 is a biopolymer obtained from renewable sources with a significant reduction of fossil raw materials by up to 45% in the carbon footprint and its molecular structure confers an improvement in tensile strength, durability and fatigue endurance. The results of the studies impose a similarity in the performance of the 5.6 biopolymer with materials traditionally applied in the sector, polyamide 6.6. The results suggest a good alternative to add value to the product and environmental interests.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

Critics often refer to certain inherent flaws in the system inter alia the involvement of third-party financing for ISDS cases. With the growing costs and the significant interests involved in investment disputes, ‘investment claims’ themselves have emerged as a new class of assets that international actors pursue. In such circumstances, this study attempts to evaluate the existence of TPF for ISDS claims, and how that could contribute to or undermine the essence of ISDS, as an impartial dispute settlement mechanism which balances and accommodates diverse interests of the parties involved, namely, the largely commercial interests of the investors and the macro-economic, public and social interests of the host states. This study was conducted as a library-based study with relevant case law being analysed to comprehend the trend of TPF in ISDS cases. Evidently, TPF is not unwelcoming in its entirety. While it could inter alia provide financial support for meritorious claims which are otherwise unable to withstand the rising costs of ISDS which is positive, it could also have the negative effect of inter alia untenably increasing the number of ISDS cases by minimising the risk factor and possibly encouraging marginal claims. The paper concludes by recommending both the bilateral treaties and the international arbitration institutions should strive to achieve transparency in the matter of ISDS where TPF is involved.

Abstract:
The paper analyses aspects of trade liberalization and the political economy of protection in Brazil since 1987. Section I considers the internal and external constraints to the continued adoption of a strategy based on import substitution industrialization. In section II trade liberalization up to 1994 is described including its adjustments related to the creation of Mercosur. It also places trade liberalization in the context of the wider reforms implemented in Brazil in the 1990s. The impacts of trade liberalization on import penetration, productivity and the cost of investment as well as its distributive effects are examined in section III. The relative importance of trade liberalization and inflation acceleration on the cost of investment is also discussed. Section IV deals with the political economy of trade liberalization and the protectionist backlash in the mid-1990s. An analysis is made of long-term factor mobility and the Brazilian case is compared with findings on other economies about the transition from a political economy of protection centered on the clash of "class interests" to one concerned with "special interests".

Abstract:
This paper focuses on the Japanese students’ learning process when they study Spanish as a second language. First, it mentions some students’ profile characteristic and their interests in learning a new language. Second, it describes the learning language system in Japan, the students’ behavior in the language classes, and which activities they prefer to do in class. In addition, it describes different kinds of learning methods that could be applied depending on the students’ interests and cultural differences. Finally, the author considers that teaching Spanish to Japanese students raises several issues that have to be attended in order to achieve success. Since learning a language implies hard work and effort, teachers must try different methods and approaches relying upon scientific evidence based on one fundamental assumption: people learn by doing things themselves.

Francois, Joseph. Scale Economies and Imperfect Competition in the GTAP Model. GTAP Technical Paper, 2000. http://dx.doi.org/10.21642/gtap.tp14.

Full text
Abstract:
The universe of existing CGE models can be divided into 3 broad categories. The first class of models (of which the standard GTAP model is a classic example) emphasizes the static effects of policy related to general equilibrium resource reallocation. The second involves scale economics and imperfect competition and the third involves dynamic accumulation effects. Development of the second class of models has followed a long period during which many of the basic tenants of modern industrial organization theory were integrated into the core of mainstream trade theory. The resulting class of applied models emphasizes procompetitive effects. This paper presents techniques for the incorporation of several stylized representations of scale economies and imperfect competition into the GTAP modeling framework. A numerical example is also provided. Technical Paper Number 14 can be downloaded in PDF format. To print this you will need the Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Abstract:
&lt;div class="section abstract"&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;This report explores the move from traditional industry practices to emerging technologies, specifically the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) solutions in engineering service sectors. It highlights the increasing problem of “technology washing,” when organizations overstate (sometimes deceivingly) their technology abilities and ethics, posing challenges to accountability, transparency, and trust in various fields. The rise of AI-based solutions in sectors like autonomous mobility, manufacturing, and aerospace has exposed a contrast between ambitious future aspirations and current technological barriers. With this, the role of human knowledge in guaranteeing ethical, efficient, and clear technology incorporation becomes essential.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;Starting with an examination of today’s technological scene, this report tackles topics such as the buzz around autonomous systems and the difficulties of standardizing fresh innovations. It also points out the problem of organizations exaggerating the capabilities of AI, stressing the importance of human monitoring to manage operational risks and uphold public trust. Practical scenarios in autonomous mobility, aerospace, and manufacturing highlight a significant discrepancy between industry targets and technological feasibilities, stressing the indispensable contribution of human intervention in ensuring successful implementation.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;These examples are analyzed to give insights into current technology successes and limitations and to propose a balanced path for the future. Ultimately, there may be a future where groundbreaking technological advancements remain in harmony with human values. This report challenges established narratives and outlines a path for ethical technological advancement that is transparent and in line with societal values, examining questions like the following:&lt;ul class="list disc"&gt;&lt;li class="list-item"&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;&lt;b&gt;What are some popular misunderstandings and exaggerated claims regarding AI capabilities today?&lt;/b&gt; Examine the divide between how the public sees things and what’s actually true in the context of deceptive AI practices and inflated statements.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="list-item"&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;&lt;b&gt;How do organizations maintain a balance between rapid technological adoption and human oversight?&lt;/b&gt; Explore ways to maintain human knowledge in decision-making processes despite technological advances.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="list-item"&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;&lt;b&gt;What are stakeholders’ views on the reliability and safety of autonomous technologies?&lt;/b&gt; Investigate the certainty levels in crucial systems that have implications for public safety and business continuity.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li class="list-item"&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;&lt;b&gt;What are the risks associated with overusing AI for critical functions?&lt;/b&gt; Highlight the potential pitfalls of excessive reliance on AI without proper backup systems or redundancy plans.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="htmlview paragraph"&gt;NOTE: SAE Edge Research Reports are intended to identify and illuminate key issues in emerging, but still unsettled, technologies of interest to the mobility industry.
