Deregulatory Takings and the Regulatory Contract

Deregulatory Takings and the Regulatory Contract

J. Gregory Sidak; Daniel F. Spulber

Cambridge University Press
1997
sidottu
This 1998 book addresses deregulatory policies that threaten to reduce or destroy the value of private property in network industries without any accompanying payment of just compensation, policies that are termed 'deregulatory takings'. The authors further consider the problem of renegotiation of the regulatory contract, which changes the terms and conditions of operation of utility companies. They argue that constitutional protections of private property from takings, as well as efficient remedies for contractual breach, provide the proper foundation for the competitive transformation of the network industries. The benefits of competition do not stem from government regulations that redistribute income from utility investors to customers, nor do such benefits stem from regulatory policies for network access that promote free riding on incumbent facilities by entrants. Such actions represent a new version of increased regulation, not deregulation.

Em particular, considera-se sistemas inteligentes evolutivos para previs o meteorol gica. Al m disso s o analisados problemas benchmarks da literatura de s ries temporais como o problema do forno a g s de Box e Jenkins, e a equa o de Mackey e Glass. O estudo de sistemas inteligentes evolutivos nestes contextos justifica-se pela limita o das t cnicas estat sticas em se adaptar a novos comportamentos din micos, ou seja, de lidar com varia es temporais dos par metros. Sendo assim, considerou-se o estudo de t cnicas de intelig ncia computacional. Sistemas inteligentes evolutivos adaptam suas estruturas e par metros segundo informa es extra das dos dados coletados. Isso possibilita uma modelagem mais flex vel e potencialmente mais precisa de s ries temporais n o-estacion rias. Este trabalho investiga uma variedade de m todos de modelagem inteligente evolutiva, incluindo m todos fuzzy e neurais artificiais para previs o de s ries temporais onde n o h conhecimento das equa es que descrevem o sistema ou fen meno.

The authors investigate whether the tenure of program managers contributes to Nunn-McCurdy breaches. They also examine the existing decentralized systems used to track cost growth to determine whether additional guidance and control are needed to make acquisition category II programs performance more transparent. Finally, they investigate whether key assumptions, so-called framing assumptions, could be useful risk management tools.

The Unintended Consequences of Peace

The Unintended Consequences of Peace

Arie Marcelo Kacowicz; Exequiel Lacovsky; Keren Sasson; Daniel F. Wajner

Cambridge University Press
2024
pokkari
Scholars of international relations generally consider that under conditions of violent conflict and war, smuggling and trans-border crime are likely to thrive. In contrast, this book argues that in fact it is globalisation and peaceful borders that have enabled transnational illicit flows conducted by violent non-state actors, including transnational criminal organizations, drug trafficking organizations, and terrorist cells, who exploit the looseness and demilitarization of borderlands. Empirically, the book draws on case studies from the Americas, compared with other regions of the world experiencing similar phenomena, including the European Union and Southeast Europe (the Western Balkans), Southern Africa, and Southeast Asia. To explain the phenomenon in itself, the authors examine the type of peaceful borders and regimes involved in each case; how strong each country is in the governance of their borderlands; their political willingness to control their peaceful borders; and the prevailing socio-economic conditions across the borderlands.

Childhood isn't easy when you're feeling sad and different. This little girl knows something's not quite right: she's having trouble sleeping, eating, and concentrating. And she doesn't laugh the way her classmates do. When she reaches out to a trusted teacher, the little girl starts down a path of help and healing, beginning with identifying her blue moods as depression. A combination of talk therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes helps her leave her blues in yesterday and look forward to a brighter tomorrow. Told with simple sentences and lush illustrations, Yesterday's Blue will be a valued resource for parents, teachers, and health professionals who work with kids dealing with depression, whether situational or systemic. And, critically, Yesterday's Blue will give kids a way to talk about their sad feelings and let them know they are not alone.

Si bien la econom a, la tecnolog a y los valores y comportamientos sociales han experimentado grandes y profundos cambios en los ltimos treinta a os (la "sociedad 4,0") y estos cambios, a su vez, han provocado profundas transformaciones en el tipo de empleos que compone la estructura ocupacional de los pa ses as como en las relaciones y condiciones de trabajo, de todas formas persisten muchas de las principales caracter sticas y, tambi n, los graves problemas preexistentes en el mundo del trabajo. En este sentido, en materia laboral pareciera que todo cambia, si bien para los trabajadores menos calificados y m s precarios nada parece estar cambiando.

Settlers

Settlers

F Daniel Rzicznek

Parlor Press
2018
pokkari
Transversing the territory between the pastoral and the elegiac, F. Daniel Rzicznek's Settlers inhabits the hidden, wild places of the American Midwestern landscape. The idea of "settling"--that a landscape can be tamed, that a human consciousness can fall back into immobility--is one these poems grapple with and resist, all the while charting the cathartic effects of the natural world on a collective imagination dually wounded by the madness of the post-industrial era and the multiplication of tragedy via media saturation. Within the "settled" landscape, it becomes clear that nothing, in fact, can be settled. Love, compassion, forgiveness, and transcendence all turn out to be moving targets and Settlers offers glimpse after glimpse of an unstable world in whirling, mesmerizing motion. Where the exterior landscape of weather, light and water skirts the interior wilderness of dream, vision, and prayer, these poems go out walking with their feet in the marsh and their hats in the infinite clouds, hoping to find what exactly it means to be human in a world imperiled by humans, and the all the fascinating and frustrating complexities contained therein.What People Are Saying"Reading F. Daniel Rzicznek's Settlers is like putting on a pair of X-ray goggles and suddenly seeing our surroundings--lake, snow, buttermilk, car, dog--in a radically different light. By telescoping multiple time scales onto the same place, whether an imagined world without humans, a past of Civil War soldiers, or today's acts of gun violence, these poems expand what is possible in landscape poetry and offer a deeply-felt ethical stance. "Every where is a ceaseless center--," Rzicznek writes, and so poetry, this splendid book tells us, must be a ceaseless act of inclusiveness." --Tung-Hui Hu"Reading Settlers is a tactile experience, lush with precise knowledge of the abundance of the natural world. Rzicznek conjures up rural mysteries and the residue of disasters, creating a sense of d j vu, of things carefully noticed long ago and then forgotten, now resurrected in these poems. In "Houses, Drifting," "A man wrestles / a wheelbarrow from the river's fluid din," an image that suggests what relics lurk beneath surfaces in this collection--surprising, wondrous, and, in fact, unsettling." --Mary Quade
