Abstract:
As a post-Soviet economy, Ukraine has inherited substantial production assets and qualified personnel. However, the economy was dominated by large-scale enterprises designed for much bigger markets. After the collapse of the Soviet Union Ukrainian firms faced lack of planning, breaks in contacts with their former suppliers and customers, and distortion of prices. There was a clear need in restructuring of the entire economy. Restructuring included splitting firms into smaller parts and privatization. The first phase of transition was completed by 2000 when the output grew for the first time af

Abstract:
<p> In order to adequately address problems associated with poverty, definitions and measurements of the issue must first be understood. This goal is complex, as both the definitions and measurement of poverty are subjective and vary geographically and categorically. The commonly used American poverty measure (i.e. the "poverty line") has recently received criticism because of its limitations as an absolute measure that fails to recognize the relative nature of poverty. Such criticisms have led to the development of alternate poverty measures. However, no single measure has the ability to acco

Lumbar degenerative disc disease is a remarkably common condition among patients presenting with chronic low back pain and physical disability.

The lumbar TDR procedure has demonstrated clinical efficacy equivalent to that of lumbar fusion, although concern remains about the longevity, safety, and costs related to the procedure. The

In der Neuen Ökonomischen Geographie wird üblicherweise Symmetrie der betrachteten Regionen und Sektoren unterstellt. In diesem Beitrag wird untersucht, wie Asymmetrien in diesen Modellen berücksichtigt werden können und welche zusätzlichen Erkenntnisse sich daraus ableiten lassen. Es werden dazu in vier grundlegenden Modellen zunächst Asymmetrien modelliert, durch Simulation die möglichen Gleichgewichte bestimmt und anschließend die Unterschiede zum jeweiligen Basismodell diskutiert.

Abstract:
This thesis seeks to provide a better understanding of the informal economy within informal settlements, particularly the importance of agglomeration economies or economic activity hubs (EAHs), within the context of Dar es Salaam, Tanzania. The research seeks to understand the spatial and economic networks of EAHs as their agglomeration processes, socio-cultural dimensions, and other factors or characteristics to determine potential drivers and operations of these economies. This research also examines the potential of GIS and spatial analysis as a tool in researching the informal economy in d
