Abstract:

We examine the effectiveness of sub-national actions to control a novel disease, such as COVID-19, in the absence of national policy. Evidence shows that countries where sub-national governments have undertaken unilateral social distancing measures to combat the pandemic with little or no coordination have performed less well in controlling the spread of the disease. We explore analytically whether agreement on a common social distancing policy among sub-national governments, i.e., states or provinces, can lead to a better outcome than if each state or province pursues its own social distancin

Abstract:

CPEC is deeply interconnected with federal structural in Pakistan. There is a difference of opinion amongst the scholars and policy makers regarding the impact of CPEC on federalism in Pakistan. This paper is an attempt to analyze liberal framework of federation and its connection with neoliberal development project of CPEC. In neoliberal framework, the decentralization and distribution of resources amongst the federating units and sub-national identities seems complex puzzle. The dominant forces amongst federating units joined same elite class for the protection of their own interest. This el

Abstract:

India as one of the member states of the United Nations has implemented the seventeen Sustainable Development Goals in the last nine years from 2015. With 57 percent success achieved as reported to the Parliament, the government put up quite impressive achievement over more than a few goals. However, there are serious concerns over poverty, hunger, education, health, and human settlement issues in which cases the country has a very long way to go to live up to the goals.

At the same time, covariances for ENDF/B-VIII.0 were processed at LANL (Los Alamos National Laboratory).

Methods: We revised an existing survey, delivered it to 357 participants, then analysed responses and explored key themes. Results: There were 51 respondents (14%, 30

AbstractPrevious research has analysed a range of domestic stakeholders that make national governments’ commitments to international human rights law credible, including an independent judiciary, legislative veto players, political opposition groups, and non-governmental organizations. But how do the power dynamics within the government affect state compliance with international human rights law? Building on the basic understanding that international human rights law needs to pass through domestic political and administrative processes before it can be implemented on the ground, this article a

The agricultural sector in Canada is responsible for approximately 9% of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Canada, accounting for 54 MT of carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>), as well as 31% of methane (CH<sub>4</sub>) and 75% of national nitrous oxide (N<sub>2</sub>O) emissions in 2021 (Environment and Climate Change Canada 2021). However, these estimates do not include the indirect GHG emissions that occur in agriculturally impacted waterways. Ontario is home to over 45 000 kilometers of agricultural drainage ditches, with tile drains directly connecting terrestrial and aquatic environments. Mic

Abstract:

A trend in studies about National Socialism and religion in recent years argues for a deliberate distinction between the Nazi Party (NSDAP) and the antisemitic völkisch movement of nineteenth-century Germany. This article challenges that contention. Several researchers have published comprehensive studies on the heterogeneous nature of Christian responses to the Nazis, but a comparable approach looking at how the Nazis viewed religion has not yet been undertaken. A study of the latter type is certainly necessary, given that one of the consistent features of the völkisch movement was its divers

Abstract:

Most survey research treats the refusal to embrace any ethnic/racial label as “missing information” or includes such responses in a general “other ethnicity/race” category. This article discusses the conceptual and theoretical problems involved in dismissing the refusal to embrace an ethnic/racial identity, and raises the possibility that in some contexts such a refusal actually represents a discursive challenge to the established system of classification and domination. The article then proposes a detailed approach to conceptualizing, measuring, and interpreting this type of claim, and illust

Background: Existing health systems are a product of, and are influenced by, specific political, historical, cultural, and socio-economic traditions. Consequently, they may differ considerably across countries. The pandemic has become a turning point for our healthcare systems and at the same time has also highlighted the need to strengthen the EU’s role in coordinating health care. This paper analyzes the characteristics of the health care systems in three EU countries—Germany, Sweden, and Greece—that represent three different health care system types in Europe as well as their health policy

Abstract Health systems are faced with a wide variety of challenges. As complex adaptive systems, they respond differently and sometimes in unexpected ways to these challenges. We set out to examine the challenges experienced by the health system at a sub-national level in Kenya, a country that has recently undergone rapid devolution, using an ‘everyday resilience’ lens. We focussed on chronic stressors, rather than acute shocks in examining the responses and organizational capacities underpinning those responses, with a view to contributing to the understanding of health system resilience.
