Streszczenie:

This article focuses on institutional obstacles to entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurs carry out a highly complicated composite act.

The number of active entrepreneurs therefore depends on how many individuals possess these skills. But skills are not endowments. Indi

Both assertion and the incurring of practical commitments are governed by competence norms, as well as norms of sincerity. So what should we do if we want to be tr

The conclusion identifies how the book’s findings relate to contemporary debates. The terms of today’s debate were set decades ago: all visions of investor–state arbitration’s future define themselves in terms of the clash between public and private paradigms—a clash created by drafters over fifty years ago. In 1962, Broches thought there were insurmountable political obstacles to creating an investment court. He may still be right, and this chapter enumerates issues that governments must grapple with to create a “public” court system. Since governments are unlikely to make the compromises nec

In order to improve outcomes for individuals struggling with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), structural and societal barriers to effective diagnosis and treatment must be addressed. Stigma about mental disorders and a lack of awareness about OCD among the general population, as well as in the mental health community, remain major obstacles to accessing treatment. A variety of awareness-raising campaigns and advocacy initiatives have been created to help overcome those barriers. This chapter reviews the World Health Organization’s guidelines for health advocacy and provides examples of how

There is a contrast between the difficulties that stand in the way of explaining in detail how we manage to find out what is in other people's minds and the relative ease with which we do it in practice. The first part of the article explores the obstacles that thwart theory, the second part describes features of our minds that work in our favor when it comes to practice. At the end it is suggested that the project of fully naturalizing our understanding of other minds — a project philosophers are bound to find enticing — is doomed. We understand others, but we cannot reduce this understanding

When AMISOM initially deployed, the AU had almost zero strategic communications capabilities and so the mission began without the ability to wage an effective media campaign. This chapter therefore analyses how AMISOM developed a strategic communications capability. It begins with an analysis of how its principal opponent, al-Shabaab, utilized strategic communications and a brief assessment of its effectiveness. The second section then provides an overview of the AU–UN Information Support Team (IST) and its efforts to promote a particular strategic narrative about AMISOM and Somalia. The third

This chapter charts the intricacies of the Attlee government’s austerity strategy, the attempts to shape opinion around this strategy, and the obstacles faced. Central to persuading the public in these years was a notion of ‘fair shares’, a particular version of equity which was crucial to the politics of the 1940s. The chapter then outlines the grounds for success of the alternative, anti-austerity message from the Conservatives, and assesses who responded most strongly to this stance. Third, it analyses how a new politics of ‘affluence’ emerged during the 1950s, and how this related to publi

This chapter discusses a wide range of issues concerning how far text and intentions should figure in judicial interpretation of legal standards and what should constitute the relevant understanding of a text and the intentions of those who enact it. The chapter makes two fundamental points. The first is that intrinsically what a communications means is closely interrelated to the perceived intentions of those who make it. Any plausible argument for disregarding intentions must rest on claimed specific obstacles, not ordinary understandings. The second basic point is that how to understand tex
