Reforming Pensions in Europe: Evolution of Pension Financing and Sources of Retirement Income

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionSince the early 1990s the countries of the European Union and Central and Eastern Europe have been involved in the process of reforming their retirement income systems. The principal objective of these reforms is to contain the cost of pay-as-you-go public pensions in the face of ageing populations. Many of the reforms involve greater reliance on personal saving and the development of capital markets to fund private pension arrangements. The distinguished contributors from Europe andthe United States demonstrate the complexity of pension provision and reform, and highlight the dangers of focusing on one particular model. They consider critical issues and debates about how to finance pensions, present evidence on the effects of pension reform on the incomes of the elderly, set out objectives to ensure intergenerational equity in public pensions, and examine different pathways to pension coverage. They also argue that recent reforms in Europe may have the effect of… [detailed...]

Reforming Public Services in India: Drawing Lessons from Success

2006 y.
Publisher: —
Description: There has been considerable debate in India about the quality of public service delivery. Various governments have attempted in recent years to improve delivery systems. This study examines 31 such efforts. Focusing on specific innovations in service delivery across India, the study identifies common factors underlying their success. In doing so, it highlights the efficacy of six instruments to improve service delivery—fostering competition, simplifying transactions, restructuring agency processes, decentralization, building broad political support for program delivery, and strengthening accountability mechanisms. Covering a range of services and cases—such as ITC’s e-Choupal , Madhya Pradesh’s effort to decentralize teacher management, Karnataka’s road transport corporation, Andhra Pradesh’s eSeva, and Tamil Nadu’s success in improving human development outcomes—the study draws lessons that can help improve service… [detailed...]

Reforming the Global Financial Architecture: Issues and Proposals

2002 y.
Publisher: Zed Books, Third World Network, UNCTAD
Description: The increased frequency and virulence of international currency and financial crises suggest that instability has become global and systemic. This volume, which embodies the most recent analysis formulated in the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), argues that strengthening of institutions and arrangements at the international level is essential if the threat of such crises is to be reduced and if they are to be better managed when they do occur. Yet its review of recent measures shows how little has been done to establish effective global arrangements that address the main concerns of developing countries. Instead what reform has taken place has emphasized only what should be done by national institutions, and even then has failed to adopt an even-handed approach between debtors and creditors. This book reviews the initiatives undertaken so far and contrasts them with the kind of measures proposed to address systemic failures and global instability. The… [detailed...]

Maria Carla Sanchez
Reforming the World: Social Activism and the Problem of Fiction in Nineteenth-Century America (Iowa Short Fiction Award)

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Reforming the World considers the intricate relationship between social reform and spiritual elevation and the development of fiction in the antebellum United States. Arguing that novels of the era engaged with questions about the proper role of fiction taking place at the time, Maria Carla Sanchez illuminates the politically and socially motivated involvement of men and women in shaping ideas about the role of literature in debates about abolition, moral reform, temperance, and protest work. She concludes that, whereas American Puritans had viewed novels as risque and grotesque, antebellum reformers elevated them to the level of literature—functioning on a much higher intellectual and moral plane. In her informed and innovative work, Sanchez considers those authors both familiar (Lydia Maria Child, Harriet Jacobs, and Harriet Beecher Stowe) and those all but lost to history (Timothy Shay Arthur). Along the way, she refers to some of the most notable American writers in the… [detailed...]

Refractory Metal Systems (Landolt-Bornstein: Numerical Data and Functional Relationships in Science and Technology) (Part 2)

2010 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Volume 11 of group IV presents phase diagrams, crystallographic and thermodynamic data of ternary alloy systems. The subvolume E deals with refractory metal systems, with part 2 considering selected systems from B-Mo-Ni to C-Ta-Ti. At ambient pressure the equilibria of each individual ternary system are discussed as functions of temperature yielding spatial diagrams whose sections and projections are displayed. The phase equilibria are described in terms of liquidus, solidus and solvus projections, isothermal, vertical and quasibinary sections. Data on invariant equilibria are generally given in the form of tables and reaction schemes. The volume forms a comprehensive review and rigorous systematization of the presently available data. For each system the often conflicting literature and contradictory information has been thoroughly evaluated by a team of experts, MSIT, and can thus be presented in a standard format. Back to the year 1900 the literature has been reviewed, implying… [detailed...]
