Abstract:
This article offers an overview and evaluation of Ireland’s changing media landscape through the prism of the recent policy contestation surrounding the future use of the UHF spectrum and its implications for the medium of television broadcasting. The article brings into focus current policy and governance developments and their interplay with market and technological change and how they are shaping a small open European state’s adaptation to the increasingly complex national/global hybrid media ecosystem. It examines the contexts surrounding the competition for spectrum resources and its implications for the role of free-to-air broadcasting and mobile broadband technologies in the future delivery of media and communication services. It takes a political economy and institutionalist perspective to evaluate the extent to which the evolution of the Irish institutional framework regarding broadcasting and broadband development and the allocation of spectrum frequencies is shaped by broader political economic and political/institutional dynamics and what this means for the remediation of broadcasting within the evolving digital media ecology.

Abstract:
PurposeThe paper aims to explore accountability as a virtue and as a mechanism (Bovens, 2010) of global telecommunication operators in the process of governing spectrum and of broadband development. The two concepts of accountability are juxtaposed with operators’ corporate reporting practices and spectrum licensing procedures of European national regulatory authorities (NRAs) and are analysed accordingly. The paper argues that spectrum licensing within the European Union regulatory context offers possible venues for policy intervention, rendering telecom providers to take an account on their global operations. Corruption is the case study to draw connections to public accountability, with a focus on the information and communication technology global market activity.Design/methodology/approachSpectrum bidding processes of European NRAs were analysed according to published documentation of auctions and to answers of NRAs on specific aspects of their licensing practices. Auctioning cases on 800 MHz band frequencies (790-862 MHz, or the “digital dividend”) were selected in countries where telecoms involved in corruption cases were based or where corrupt practices were revealed. Furthermore, a survey was carried out between 08 March and 03 June 2017 – coordinated by the Radio Spectrum Policy Group among its 28 members – on inquiring about licensing practices of NRAs during spectrum trading with respect to identifying beneficial ownership of bidders to spectrum.FindingsFindings show that European NRAs are in possession of regulatory tools that could enforce telecoms’ public accountability; there are strong arguments on the need for European and national-level policy interventions. Spectrum licensing procedures are offering possible and potential venues of accountability. Further legislative action is necessary to adopt a minimum set of criteria applicable in the licensing process. Harmonised implementation by NRAs should further develop new standards fostering transparency.Originality/valueInformation about the ethical behaviour and corruption of European telecom operators is surprisingly scarce and unsystematic, particularly considering the centrality of those actors in advancing a number of the aims of the historical Millennium Development Goals and the new Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. Research into the governance of spectrum as a possible venue of accountability, and the findings shed new light on regulatory aspects of telecommunication in a global perspective.

Abstract:
AbstractThe paper considers the notion of Science Policy from a postcolonial perspective. It examines the theoretical implications of the recent trend to include emerging and developing countries in international Science Policies by way of the case study of Switzerland. This country’s new international science policy instruments and measures have challenged the classical distinction between international scientific cooperation and development cooperation, with consequences on standards and evaluation criteria. The analysis reveals that the underlying assumptions of the concept of Science Policy perpetuate traditional asymmetries in the global political economy of science. The paper suggests that the present legacy of Science Policy institutions and practices needs to be transformed to reflect an increasingly diverse spectrum of scientific purposes and traditions. It offers a revised set of foundational assumptions on Science Policy and, more broadly, proposes a fresh point of entry for the field of Science & Technology Studies (STS) to contribute to the Science Policy discourse.

Abstract:
Optimal health and well-being are now considered the true measures of human development. Integrated strategies for infant, child and adult nutrition are required that take a life-course perspective to achieve life-long health. The major nutrition challenges faced today include: (a) addressing the pending burden of undernutrition (low birth weight, severe wasting, stunting and Zn, retinol, Fe, iodine and folic acid deficits) affecting those individuals living in conditions of poverty and deprivation; (b) preventing nutrition-related chronic diseases (obesity, diabetes, CVD, some forms of cancer and osteoporosis) that, except in sub-Saharan Africa, are the main causes of death and disability globally. This challenge requires a life-course perspective as effective prevention starts before conception and continues at each stage of life. While death is unavoidable, premature death and disability can be postponed by providing the right amount and quality of food and by maintaining an active life; (c) delaying or avoiding, via appropriate nutrition and physical activity interventions, the functional declines associated with advancing age. To help tackle these challenges, it is proposed that the term ‘malnutrition in all its forms’, which encompasses the full spectrum of nutritional disorders, should be used to engender a broader understanding of global nutrition problems. This term may prove particularly helpful when interacting with policy makers and the public. Finally, a greater effort by the UN agencies and private and public development partners is called for to strengthen local, regional and international capacity to support the much needed change in policy and programme activities focusing on all forms of malnutrition with a unified agenda.

Abstract:
What role do cultural dimensions of cooperation and competition play in economic life? Taking a multidisciplinary perspective, this essay uses the example of the concept of trust to consider some implications for competition policy. The author suggests that the field of competition policy is at core about the authoritative allocation of categories of economic activity along a spectrum with individualism and competition at one end and collectivism and cooperation at the other. The allocation is a function of the state, made on the basis of a variety of imprecise inputs—cultural, political, historic, economic, and institutional—and not merely neoclassical economic theory. Sensitivity to the cultural aspects of competition and cooperation places constraints on overly optimistic expectations for global harmonization of antitrust enforcement.

Abstract:
Este estudo tem como escopo analisar as políticas educacionais, especialmente àquelas relacionadas a perspectiva de educação inclusiva e o atendimento educacional de estudantes com diagnóstico de Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA). É um estudo de abordagem qualitativa, de análise de documentos propositivos e legais das políticas educacionais brasileira relacionando com a área do Transtorno do Espectro Autista. E buscou-se como procedimento metodológico para análise dos documentos no período de 1988 a 2015, as contribuições de Shiroma, Campos e Garcia (2005) e Evangelista (2009), os estudos de Bueno (1993, 2004), Jannuzzi (2004) e Garcia (2004) para a discussão da área da educação especial e Araújo e Neto (2014) sobre as questões relacionadas ao Transtorno do Espectro Autismo. Entre os resultados, observa-se que no Brasil as políticas educacionais de perspectiva inclusiva foram influenciadas pelos Organismos Internacionais, especialmente a partir de 1990 e reafirmada em 2008 com a implantação pelo MEC da Política Nacional de Educação Especial na Perspectiva da Educação Inclusiva. O público da educação especial também foi sendo modificado ao longo deste período, sendo definindo em 2008 como: pessoas com deficiência, Transtornos Globais do Desenvolvimento e Altas Habilidades Superdotação, incluindo o Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA) no Transtorno Global do Desenvolvimento. Em 2012, com a Lei nº 12.764, que instituiu a Política Nacional de Proteção dos Direitos da Pessoa com Transtorno do Espectro Autista (TEA) que trata da temática de forma específica, considerando os sujeitos com TEA como pessoas com deficiência. Palavras-chave: Políticas educacionais. Educação Especial. Educação Inclusiva. TEA. ABSTRACT This study aims to analyze educational policies, especially those related to the perspective of inclusive education and the educational service of students diagnosed with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD). It is a study with a qualitative approach, analysis of propositional and legal documents of Brazilian educational policies relating to the field of autism spectrum disorder. And as a methodological procedure for analyzing the documents from 1988 to 2015, the contributions of Shiroma, Campos and Garcia (2005) and Evangelista (2009), the studies of Bueno (1993, 2004), Jannuzzi (2004) and Garcia (2004) for the discussion of the area of special education and Araújo and Neto (2014) on issues related to autism spectrum disorder. Among the results, it is observed that in Brazil educational policies with an inclusive perspective were influenced by International Organizations, especially from 1990 onwards and reaffirmed in 2008 with the implementation by the MEC of the National Policy on Special Education in the Perspective of Inclusive Education. The special education audience was also modified throughout this period, being defined in 2008 as: people with disabilities, Pervasive Developmental Disorders and High Abilities Giftedness, including autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in Pervasive Developmental Disorder. In 2012, with Law No. 12,764, which established the National Policy for the Protection of the Rights of Persons with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD), which specifically addresses the issue, considering subjects with ASD as people with disabilities.

Abstract:
Terrorism is a serious problem for the world recently. The groups of terror currently appeared to be closely related to groups that have radical understanding. They claim that their actions are the implementation of Jihaad. The goal of their struggle is to establish the Khilafah Islamiyah, a global leadership system based on Islamic law. Countries embraced nation state, including Indonesia, labeled them as a radical group-terrorism. The Government of Indonesia through the National Agency for Combating Terrorism (BNPT) has a special strategy to combat radical-terrorism groups with the policy of de-radicalization. De-radicalization attempts to reduce and eliminate one's radical understanding. This study will discuss de-radicalization in the political Spectrum perspective. This paper specifically takes a study on the concept and implementation of de-radicalization programs implemented by the National Agency for Counter-Terrorism (BNPT) during this time. This paper shows an answer whether the deradicalization efforts undertaken by BNPT will change the political spectrum of a person.Â

The article analyses the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform for Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (ipbes) through the spectrum of international environmental law. It unpacks the epistemic logics within which ipbes operates and emphasises the normative constructions underlying the mechanism, arguing that ipbes is best understood in light of the rationale and principles of the law of sustainable development. On that basis, the article provides an in-depth discussion of ipbes, and in particular of i) its mandate analysed in light of the principles of the Rio Declaration on Environment and Development, ii) its scope that combines a temporal and spatial perspective to scientific knowledge and iii) its outreach activities seeking to co-operate with a variety of partners, interpreted as an embodiment of the ‘global partnership’ that the Rio Declaration calls for.

Abstract:
The positioning of Africa within international relations continues to be a subject of debate. While pessimists perceive Africa as stagnant, burdened by its colonial history and bureaucratic complexities and that such obtaining situations cannot be transformed, optimists envision a realm of potential transformation, often invoking scattered evidence that justify concepts such as “Africa rising” or an “African Renaissance” but practically remaining complacent in business as usual practices. Realists, meanwhile, acknowledge Africa’s vulnerabilities and advocate for pragmatic approaches to effect positive change. This paper takes a theoretical angle to examine Africa’s role in the globalized world through the lens of its influence on and interaction with the global public policy agenda; employing international law as a ground to test the theorizing. Applying qualitative-interpretive design and critical desk review, arguments made in the paper are organized in four interdependent sequences. Firstly, it provides a contextualization of global public policy theatre; explores a spectrum of theoretical frameworks and counter-theories to elucidate Africa’s position in global public policy, employing the structure-agency problem to delineate between these perspectives. Thirdly, it undertakes a conceptual disambiguation, with specific attention given to international law and then investigates the role of international law in African public policy processes, with a brief analysis of its impact across four substantive policy areas. The paper makes three conclusions: firstly, the paper showcases that the position of Africa may depend largely on the theoretical angle adopted by an analyst, with agency-based theories looking inward and discussing Africa’s deficiencies as emerging from within it, while structure-based perspectives focus on external factors. Bridging this divide is crucial for understanding Africa’s position in global public policy comprehensively. Secondly, the contemporary global landscape has undergone significant transformation, blurring the boundaries between local and global policy spheres, thereby profoundly affecting Africa as a vulnerable entity within this dynamic environment. Thirdly, while international law is not without its limitations, it remains an indispensable facet of Africa’s public policy discourse, exerting considerable influence on decision-making processes. This paper contributes to the ongoing dialogue on Africa’s engagement with global public policy, offering insights into its evolving role and the complexities inherent in its interaction with international legal frameworks. It therefore attempts to marry two currently separated research areas, namely on one hand, the literature on the place of Africa in IR and the quest to deconstruct intellectual imperialism in “International Studies” and on the other hand, empirical analysis of Africa’s influence on and interaction with the global public policy agenda.

Abstract:
The issue of global warming, stemming from climate change, exerts significant ramifications worldwide and manifests in diverse extreme weather conditions and natural calamities. In response, a growing number of countries globally have been advocating for a spectrum of legal frameworks, institutional mechanisms, and supportive policies to mitigate greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and facilitate environmental rehabilitation. Notably, the COVID-19 pandemic has exposed vulnerabilities in the global supply chain, underscoring deficiencies inherent in existing supply chain management (SCM) paradigms employed by companies. This study explored both global and Korean government policy trajectories from the perspectives of domestic companies. For this, the study investigated the policy directions of pivotal actors such as the United States and the European Union, thereby contributing to the discourse on the reconstruction of global supply chains through a synthesis of theoretical ground and empirical case studies centered on sustainable global SCM practices. Companies are required to adeptly navigate the comprehensive landscape of climate change response policies instituted by individual nations. In turn, companies can enhance their competitive edge by fortifying and overhauling prevailing SCM infrastructures.

Abstract:
Research that addresses policy measures to increase the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) has discussed government regulations such as California’s Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) or penalties on petroleum-based fuels. Relatively few articles have addressed policy measures designed to increase the adoption of EVs by incentives to influence car buyers’ voluntary behavior. This article examines the effects of such policy measures. Two of these attributes are monetary measures, two others are traffic regulations, and the other three are related to investments in charging infrastructure. Consumer preferences were assessed using a choice-based conjoint analysis on an individual basis by applying the hierarchical Bayes method. In addition, the Kano method was used to elicit consumer satisfaction. This not only enabled the identification of preferences but also why preferences were based on either features that were “must-haves” or on attributes that were not expected but were highly attractive and, thus, led to high satisfaction. The results of surveys conducted in 20 countries in 5 continents showed that the installation of a charging network on freeways is an absolute necessity. This was completely independent from the average mileage driven per day. High cash grants were appreciated as attractive; however, combinations of lower grants with charging facilities resulted in similar preference shares in market simulations for each country. The results may serve as initial guidance for policymakers and practitioners in improving their incentive programs for electric mobility.

Abstract:
Healthy eating is a topic most people would consider they have an understanding of, yet it is an area which is not often addressed from a critical perspective. Healthy eating is freely discussed in society. It is a dominant discourse used commercially and frequently appears in educational 'texts', however the discourses surrounding healthy eating for children are not well analysed and are most often controlled by the media and often not challenged. A critical perspective to children's eating is adopted for this portfolio and multiple perspectives bought to bare regarding the globalisation of food cultures, and governance and policy influences on healthy eating for children. Healthy eating for children is presented and problematised as a concept while family changes in eating patterns and curriculum influences are interpreted and challenged through the development of a case study investigation of an educational intervention. Findings of the intervention indicate that families are struggling with the notion of healthy eating through a range of parental pressures whereas and any additional assistance regarding healthy eating for children is well received by parents and accepted by children.

By applying elements of constructivism, one is able to understand the cultural perspective of Chinese foreign policy in the example of Sino-American relations. Furthermore, this is proven through philosophical application of game theory stratagem.

Abstract:
Along with globalization, English as a lingua franca (ELF) has played a more and more important role in international settings. Among English users, the number of English nonnative speakers (NNS) has reached more than 2 billion which has already overtaken the number of English native speakers (NS). However, the fact of using ELF has not been fully recognized, especially in China where there is a huge population of English users and learners who still take English as a foreign language (EFL). Since junior high school education in China affects the largest population of English learners and users and their language beliefs and language behaviours, it is very necessary to investigate the influences of global Englishes on language policy and practice or the compatibility that language policy and practice has had with global Englishes in junior high school in China. The research was a predominantly qualitative study with a quasi-ethnographic approach. The fieldwork took place over a three month period in a public junior high school in China. Questionnaires, interviews and observation were all explored as research instruments for a thick and full description of the research context. With qualitative content analysis approach and from global Englishes perspective, the thesis compares, analyses and integrates how English is stated in English national curriculum (NEC), how it is performed in classroom teaching performance, and how it is perceived by teachers and students. Findings show many inconsistencies and contradictions on English, English using and English teaching/learning among NEC statements, classroom performance and participants’ perception. Importantly, testing, which was Standard English ideology oriented, turned out to have a great wash-back on English learning and teaching, and was found to be one of the most significant factors for the inconsistencies and contradictions. The thesis also shows data for the forthcoming test reform in China. Implications for English pedagogy in China are also given.

Abstract:
International environment efforts are often seen as unsuccessful and the reasons why are not clear. The international negotiations in the IPCC and the EU show that the opinions and ambitions differ quite a lot between the different countries. Even though there are ambitious goals and international agreements, such as the Kyoto Protocol, there are still problems with implementing these at country level. This study examines the implementation process from international to local level focusing on a Swedish context. The aim of the study is to identify the main implementation problems when implementing international environment goals. The study uses a top-down perspective, meaning that it will examine the implementation process from international to local level concentrating at the hierarchical structures and processes. The study uses both text analysis and qualitative interviews in order to collect data, three interviews were conducted in order to collect data about the municipality perspectives. The conclusions of the study implies that a lack of national and local political will together with a high degree of municipality autonomy are the main problems when implementing international environment goals.<br>Internationella miljöförhandlingar anses ofta vara misslyckade och skälen till varför, är oklara. I de internationella förhandlingarna inom ramen för IPCC och EU visar att åsikter och ambitioner skiljer sig ganska mycket mellan olika länder. Även om det finns ambitiösa mål och internationella överenskommelser, till exempel Kyotoprotokollet, finns det fortfarande problem med att implementera dem på nationell nivå. Denna studie undersöker implementeringsprocessen från internationell till lokal nivå sett ur en svensk kontext. Syftet med studien är att identifiera de främsta implementeringsproblemen av internationella miljömål. Studien använder sig av ett top-down-perspektiv, vilket innebär en granskning av implementeringsprocessen från internationell till lokal nivå med fokus på hierarkiska strukturer och processer. Studien använder både textanalys och kvalitativa intervjuer för att samla in data, tre intervjuer har genomförts för att samla in data om kommunala perspektiv. Slutsatserna av studien antyder att brist på nationell och lokal politisk vilja tillsammans med en hög grad av kommunalt självbestämmande är de största problemen vid implementeringen av internationella miljömål.

Abstract:
<p>The objective of this thesis is to investigate how of the concepts of adaptation and vulnerability are defined in IPCC’s third assessment report (TAR) with specific focus on IPCC’s response to the critique from South. I have achieved this by doing a text analysis of the content in TAR. My point of departure was in the position of South and there critiques on the climate change policy. I have divided the objective into different research question where I focus on the definition of vulnerability, the determining factors of adaptive capacity, if there is a difference in vulnerability between and within regions and whether focus is on adaptation or mitigation in TAR. There are two definitions of vulnerability in TAR. One is by Brooks (2003) referred as biophysical and the other as social vulnerability. Which one the authors in the report refer to is not put out which cause confusion. In earlier assessments are the biophysical approach more common than the social. In TAR is the use of vulnerability in terms of social conditions more common than the biophysical. This is an improvement since this definition is necessary to get a greater focus on the need for immediate adaptation, in South particularly. It was somewhat problematic to determine whether the adaptive capacity only on the level of the system was considered in TAR or also exogenous factors, which affect the capacity of the system, was included in the definition. In some sense exogenous factors have been considered however it is not much reflection over this. In the report there is a consensus that the vulnerability differs between regions. However there is not much research conducted in developing countries. Also in the issue of concentration on adaptation or mitigation the problem is that there is not enough research from developing countries. Despite this, this assessment report has more focus on adaptation than the other ones. </p>

Abstract:
This thesis aims to analyze the impacts on U.S. and global sorghum trade, and whether China will continue importing sorghum from the global sorghum market for feed use, if the Chinese government cancels its corn price support policy and corn temporary reserve program nationwide. This study uses the USDA-ERS China Model and the Country-Commodity Linked System (CCLS) to simulate the impacts on U.S. sorghum exports and the reduction of sorghum's global price, global production, and global trade volumes. The simulations are based on three scenarios: if China's sorghum import volume decreased by 50% from USDA-ERS's baseline projection, if China's sorghum import volume decreased by 35% each year from the previous year, and if China's sorghum import volume decreased by 70% from USDA-ERS's baseline projection in year one and by 90% from USDA-ERS's baseline projection in subsequent years. The modeling system is a large scale multi-country and multi-commodity partial equilibrium dynamic simulation model which solves for global prices and trade using individual country models. Policy instruments are applied to the China model and solved globally. The USDA-ERS China Model and the CCLS, used to project Chinese and global sorghum trends, includes the following policy instruments: tariffs, quotas, tariff rate quotas, export tax, direct payments, input subsidies, and procurement policies. This model simulates projections using price and income elasticities and assumed values for exogenous variables such as income and population growth. This model also incorporates behavior of state trading enterprises and WTO commitments into imported and exported equations for sorghum.<br>Master of Science

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the conditions of SMEs and working conditions in the Chilean agrofood sector. Especially in an economy with a high degree of trade openness as Chilean economy. The current state of debate is that is more controversial the apparent success of Chilean agrofood sector due to the existence of these fault lines. The upgrading theories are mainly narrow minded and do not consider the weakest part of the production chains. It is required accordingly, a broader look to these problems such that embodies these problems. It is a research based mainly in an approach of political economy. Within this context, this thesis explores the role of SMEs within the Chilean economy and, in particular, their participation within the Chilean economy's insertion into global agrofood production networks, with the aim of giving new insights into the debates over the role of industrial policy in developing countries (an economy based on natural resources). This research will contribute to developing recommendations for the use of public policy tools (rejuvenated industrial policy) in an effective way in relation to the development of SMEs in the agrofood sector. Also there is an urgent need for industrial policy to consider working conditions, training and the acquisition of skills in a much more explicit way, particularly in an economy that is heavily based on the exploitation of natural resources as in the Chilean case.

Abstract:
This paper investigates the extent to which the 2008 - 2009 financial crisis impacted economic growth and employment in developing countries, with Zambia as the entity of focus. It further examines the industrial policy strategies employed by the country before, during and after the crisis and whether they have been effective in shielding the country from exogenous shocks and creating sustainable employment opportunities. This provides a unique perspective by evaluating policy responses to external shocks while monitoring the key economic variables highlighted. It draws from conceptual ideas and previous research around the evolution of financial crises and industrial policy, evaluating the manner in which the effects of the former, originating from financial markets in developed economies, trickle down to developing nations with no solid roots in international financial markets. Furthermore, it assesses the application of the latter concept and its ability to preserve and support sustainable economic development. The paper presents an exploratory case study analysis of Zambia which has been negatively affected by the financial crisis to a large extent due to number of vulnerabilities that leave the country exposed. The findings suggest that industrial policy in itself cannot fully insulate developing countries from the dynamic and unpredictable external environment. However, there are a number of policy considerations that can be made, highlighted as concluding recommendations, to support the growth of the economy and mitigate against the impact of inevitable external shocks. It is important to note that each developing country case is unique to itself but generalised findings can still be comparable to other countries that share some fundamental demographic similarities.

Abstract:
AbstractThe conservative versus the liberal conflict currently seems to be prevalent in Western societies. This chapter tests the association between conservative and liberal worldviews and basic human values: conservation values (CONS) versus values we term “liberal attitude values” (LA). We explore their association to each other, to religiosity, and to social policy attitudes. We first explore these associations in the full Young Adults and Religion in a Global Perspective (YARG) sample, and then focus on three samples from countries that have recently experienced a liberal-conservative political polarization: Poland, Israel (Jewish sample), and the United States. The contribution of the YARG data is in the ability to present a more nuanced view of this dimension, with an emphasis on its relation to religiosity. Our intention is to unpack the conservative and the liberal worldviews in order to explore the elements that each of them promotes and to identify variance within national contexts, shifting the liberal-conservative dichotomy to a culturally-nuanced spectrum.

Abstract:
AbstractMigration and migration-related diversity are likely to remain key topics of the European policy and research agenda for the foreseeable future. This asks for a rethinking of the research agenda on migration, from a strategic perspective as well as from a research perspective. The objective of this chapter is to suggest applications that are useful in shaping the next funding opportunities for migration research, and to provide roadmaps for the optimisation of research efforts in order to avoid overlapping and, where possible, to close the gaps in the global spectrum and national initiatives on migration. Questions such as How to benefit from and get access to available knowledge and expertise? How to promote the accumulation of knowledge and expertise? and How to address gaps in knowledge? have been at the heart of the Horizon 2020 CrossMigration research project and have led to the definition of itsstrategic research agenda. This chapter considers the need for a future agenda on migration studies, addressing methodological issues; what funding to focus on; how funding might be organised; who should be involved in funding (and procedures); and what prospects there are for the future. We will also propose three strategies to consider how an agenda might help provide towards: (1) keeping the road safe for achieving the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals in 2030, (2) contrasting current and future pandemic/epidemic disease, and (3) establishing a fruitful dialogue with the African scientific community.

Full text
Abstract:
Rotorcraft dynamic component fatigue lives and corresponding reliability have long been derived from three major contributors: material strength, loads, and usage. This paper provides a historical perspective of the contribution of aircraft usage to overall U.S. Army rotorcraft dynamic component reliability. A quick background of how we got to a six-nines reliability requirement is first provided. Different types of usage spectra and the nuances and trade-offs of two specific usage gathering methods, pilot surveys and usage monitoring, are discussed. Finally, I describe where usage spectrum fits into fatigue life calculations and the existing reliability policy and requirements. Each OEM (e.g., Bell Helicopter, Boeing, Sikorsky) has been free to develop their own fatigue methods over the years. These differences in method can lead to vastly different results, even with the same input parameters as evidenced by a now well-known round robin problem. There is notable variability between OEM methodologies, each with viable solutions to this trivariate problem. In the interest of normalizing independent U.S. Government (USG) assessments across multiple OEM paradigms, the Army is investigating a USG method to assess the reliability contribution from usage. No new methods are presented herein, only findings of previous work. Uncited opinions herein are those of the author based on literature review, peer discussions, and experience with U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force (USAF) airworthiness processes. Reliability values in this paper are approximate, as there are elements of statistical distribution and non-statistical estimation that contribute.

In 2nd International Conference Global Ethics - Key of Sustainability (GEKoS). LUMEN Publishing House, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.18662/lumproc/gekos2021/4.

Full text
Abstract:
Financial inclusion is an increasingly intense issue that is of concern to the credit institutions and the public authorities. It has become topical and gained new value during this period of Covid-19 crisis. Although financial exclusion cuts across demographic categories, but certain categories of financial consumers such as women, young people, people with disabilities and those residing in rural areas have a low presence in the financial services sector. Previous studies attribute the incidence of financial exclusion of some segment of the society to low income, low level of financial education or difficult access to financial products and services generated by poor development of physical infrastructure. Is this true in the case of ASEAN region? A quantitative research approach was adopted in this study, while relying on the secondary data of the World Bank spanning 2011-2017, the UN Women ASEAN Gender Outlook report (2020 -2021), and enriched by scholarly works. The article focuses on the dimensions of the phenomenon of financial inclusion in ASEAN countries, with emphasis on the gender gap financial inclusion. The analysis of the extracted data reveals multiple differences among the countries in the region, a fact that can be explained by the different levels of financial technology development and the governmental interventions implemented to improve financial inclusion. On the strength of the findings, this paper argues that digitalization and financial innovation can also be solutions through which new consumers can be attracted to the financial system, but with these solutions come new challenges related to the protection of personal data and cyber security. For this reason, we believe that increasing financial inclusion must be approached at several levels and must involve joint efforts by public authorities, credit institutions and other categories of stakeholders.

Full text
Abstract:
In the aftermath of the global financial crisis, a new policy paradigm has emerged in which old-fashioned policies such as capital controls and other government distortions have become part of the standard policy tool kit (so called macro- prudential policies). On the wave of this seemingly unanimous policy consensus, a new strand of theoretical literature contends that capital controls are welfare enhancing and can be justified rigorously because of second-best considerations. Within the same theoretical framework adopted in this fast-growing literature, this paper shows that a credible commitment to support the exchange rate in crisis times always welfare-dominates prudential capital controls, as it can achieve unconstrained allocation.

Full text
Abstract:
The purpose of this note is to provide insight and contribute to the discussion on trade facilitation implementation issues of relevance to Latin American and Caribbean countries.Identifying and sequencing trade facilitation needs from the perspective of the entire value chain supports the objective of trade facilitation itself: enhancing a country's ability to seamlessly dock into the network of global value chains, and allowing global value chains to integrate efficiently into a country. In this sense, it can be argued that trade facilitation should result in business facilitation that not only encompasses the reform and modernization of border agencies, but also requires improving the efficiency and effectiveness of business-to-business importing and exporting processes, and comprises private sector training and capacity building, leading to improved overall predictability in international commerce.

Full text
Abstract:
Global environmental change is increasingly at the forefront of national and international concern. As society seeks to understand and address the challenges related to global environmental change, the weather, water, and climate (WWC) enterprise will be an essential partner. This endeavor will influence the application of science, including the “translation” of science for various audiences and situations. Consequently, it will almost certainly require an expansion in the skills, personnel, knowledge, and training of the workforce. However, as the scope of global environmental change is broad and encompasses many sectors of society, the emerging needs within the workforce are accordingly complex and diverse. This American Meteorological Society (AMS) Policy Program study is the third of a series of workshop-based studies to help provide the foundational understanding that the WWC enterprise needs to meet future workforce challenges in Earth system observations and science. We first focus on the developing “climate workforce” as a key component of society’s response to global environmental change. While climate change is only one aspect of global environmental change, the application of climate knowledge is increasingly relevant throughout a large portion of the workforce in a variety of ways. As such, the term “climate workforce” is used broadly here to refer to numerous job positions that lie along a spectrum of familiarity with climate science.

Full text
Abstract:
We present a small analytical framework, built in the Balance of Payments Constrained Growth (BPCG) tradition, tailored to identify how specific financial and structural vulnerabilities of emerging economies (EMEs) restrict their expansion. This framework is applied to shed light on the impact of global shocks and of major macro policy changes in developed countries on the growth path of six economies. As we show, this impact is conditioned by the vulnerabilities and dynamics of their insertion on international trade and capital markets and their exposure to policy changes in the developed centers. Our work shows that the BPCG-approach is a relevant, simple tool to identify EMEs´ challenges in the post-covid 19 era.

Full text
Abstract:
The era of the Sustainable Development Goals has become the era of private finance. Decades-long political, economic and social trends have seen rapid growth in the size and scale of private finance relative to public finance, and the increasing political power of private financial actors. In global development, this has taken form in narratives and actions that establish and quantify investment gaps, call for greater and greater levels of private finance to fill these gaps, and create new financial instruments with which to realise the expansion of private financial capital. These changes are sometimes referred to as ‘financialisation’. This briefing paper responds to the expansion of private finance in global health, demystifying the process of financialisation and offering a vital counter-perspective to an increasingly pervasive but questionable narrative that positions private finance as necessary to the future of global health. The paper charts the expansion of private finance across global health, pointing to how actors once marginal to this sector are becoming central to its financing and governance. Drawing on several case studies and a growing body of evidence, the briefing paper highlights three overlapping concerns associated with the financialisation of global health: the high cost of private investment; the undermining of public health principles and values; and the weakening of democratic governance and regulatory capture by powerful private financial actors. The paper raises the alarm that many aspects of financialisation in global health are harmful and calls for three sets of action: challenge the common fallacies and false narratives regarding private finance and associated financial instruments; press for change in public and multilateral policy and practice; advocate for alternative models of financing and governance that are more strongly rooted in the public interest.

Full text
Abstract:
Global migration has been increasing since the 1990s. People are forced to leave their homes in search of safety, a better livelihood, or for more economic opportunities. Environmental drivers of migration, such as land degradation, water pollution, or changing climate, are acting as stronger phenomena with time. As millions of people are exposed to multiple water crises, daily needs related to water quality, lack of provisioning, excess or shortage of water become vital for survival as well for livelihood support. In turn, the crisis can transform into conflict and act as a trigger for migration, both voluntary and forced, depending on the conditions. Current interventions related to migration, including funding to manage migration remain focused on response mechanisms, whereas an understanding of drivers or so-called ‘push factors’ of migration is limited. Accurate and well-documented evidence, as well as quantitative information on these phenomena, are either missing or under-reflected in the literature and policy discourse. The report aims to start unpacking relationships between water and migration. The data used in this Report are collected from available public sources and reviewed in the context of water and climate. A three-dimensional (3D) framework is outlined for water-related migration assessment. The framework may be useful to aggerate water-related causes and consequences of migration and interpret them in various socioecological, socioeconomic, and sociopolitical settings. A case study approach is adopted to illustrate the various applications of the framework to dynamics of migration in various geographic and hydrological scenarios. The case studies reflect on well-known examples of environmental and water degradation, but with a focus on displacement /migration and socioeconomic challenges that apply. The relevance of proxy measures such as the Global Conflict Risk Index, which helps quantify water and migration interconnections, is discussed in relation to geographic, political, environmental, and economic parameters. The narratives presented in the Report also point to the existing governance mechanisms on migration, stating that they are fragmented. The report examines global agreements, institutions, and policies on migration to provide an aggerated outlook as to how international and inter-agency cooperation agreements and policies either reflected or are missing on water and climate crises as direct or indirect triggers to migration. Concerning this, the new directives related to migration governance, i.e., the New York Declaration and the Global Compact for Migration, are discussed. The Report recommends an enhanced focus on migration as an adaptation strategy to maximize the interconnectedness with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It calls for the migration discourse to look beyond from a preventative and problematic approach to a perspective emphasizing migration as a contributor towards achieving sustainable development, particularly SDGs 5, 6, 13, and 16 that aim strengthening capacities related to water, gender, climate, and institutions. Overall, the synthesis offers a global overview of water and migration for researchers and professionals engaged in migration-related work. For international agencies and government organizations and policymakers dealing with the assessment of and response to migration, the report aims to support the work on migration assessment and the implementation of the SDGs. The Report may serve as a public good towards understanding the drivers, impacts, and challenges of migration, for designing long-term solutions and for advancing migration management capabilities through improved knowledge and a pitch for consensus-building.
