Hazard Rates Of Young Male And Female Workers--Recent Developments (Working Paper #51), John Donohue

John Donohue

This paper will explore whether this tenure differential has persisted after a decade in which the commitment of women to the paid workforce increased substantially. To answer this question, I began by examining the first full-time job for "recent school leavers" from the National Longitudinal Studies youth cohort over the four year period from 1979-1982.2 Tables 1 and 2 present summary statistics for the resulting male and female samples, in which full-time jobs are defined as having a usual workweek of 20 or more hours. The number of male and female workers included in the sample are quite close: 2305 …

Evolución Del Espacio Urbano Ecuatoriano, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

Se revisa someramente la historia urbana del país, a partir de la conquista española, pues allí se inicia la oposición ciudad-campo, con predominio de la primera, Se presentan hipótesis generales sobre el tema que requieren ulterior investigación y se divide el trabajo en dos partes: la primera sobre conceptos teórico-metodológicos, y la segunda los periodos de esta historia con sus rasgos característicos, con especial énfasis en el análisis interurbano.

Evolución Del Espacio Urbano Ecuatoriano, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

Con este trabajo pretendemos realizar un recorrido breve y somero de la historia urbana de nuestro país, desde la conquista y la colonización española hasta nuestros días. Lo hacemos a partir de la colonización, española porque consideramos que ella marca el inicio de la separación, por oposición, de la ciudad con el campo. Una oposición que surge desde la ciudad y con predomino sobre el campo; cuestión que permite, desde este momento, el análisis particularizado de la ciudad, como proceso y evolución propia. Y lo hacemos hasta nuestros días por cuanto nos permite, aunque a grosso modo, tener una visión …

El Proceso De Urbanización En El Ecuador (Del Siglo Xviii Al Siglo Xx). -Antología-, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

Sin lugar a dudas una de las principales características de la historia del Ecuador en los últimos 30 años es el proceso de urbanización que ha experimentado la sociedad nacional.

El debate sobre los problemas derivados de la urbanización, aunque reciente, se ha venido constituyendo cada vez más en referencia obligada para la reflexión acerca de una temática que en gran medida sigue siendo desconocida.

Esta antología, que en ningún caso se propone agotar el tratamiento del tema, esta dirigida tanto a especialistas, como a estudiantes y público en general interesados en comprender aquellos aspectos relevantes y de mayor interés …

Strategic Planning Of Seaport Development In A Global Economy: Observations Of An Executive Port Director, Herman L. Boschken

Herman L. Boschken

Seaport management is central both to the use of coastal resources and to the needs of a global economy. As a major point of supply-chain activity along the coast and as a source of pollution, ports need to be administered strategically to provide the greatest benefit according to economic and environmental demands. This article is an annotated conversation that provides a practitioner's insight into the management of change along the coastal zone. To address the problem, we probe organization theory for new insight and attempt to apply concepts to practice.

Railway Collision Injures 2, Douglas J. Swanson Ed.D Apr

Douglas J. Swanson, Ed.D APR

In 1984-85, I worked as a correspondent for the Albuquerque Journal. I covered a variety of subjects - local government, politics, police & courts, business, etc. - mostly breaking news, but occasionally feature stories. This is one of the lengthier articles I wrote during that time.

Bbc Follows Buddy Holly Trail To Clovis, Douglas J. Swanson Ed.D Apr

Douglas J. Swanson, Ed.D APR

In 1984-85, I worked as a correspondent for the Albuquerque Journal. I covered a variety of subjects - local government, politics, police & courts, business, etc. - mostly breaking news, but occasionally feature stories. This is one of the nicest feature stories I was able to do. I will never forget what it was like to be inside the Norm Petty Studio in downtown Clovis. Going in there was like stepping back in time - the piano and recording equipment at the ready, just like Buddy Holly was going to step through the curtain and sing again. It was amazing. …

Mobs Of Romantic Moths Disrupt Radio Broadcasts, Douglas J. Swanson Ed.D Apr

Douglas J. Swanson, Ed.D APR

In 1984-85, I worked as a correspondent for the Albuquerque Journal. The "romantic moths" story was picked up by the AP wire and went world-wide. I heard the story on National Public Radio. I was told the story was also picked up by the BBC. Several people who lived in different parts of the country told me they read or heard the story. It was exciting for me (not even 24 years old) to know my story got so much play.

The Paramenstruum And Negative Moods In Normal Young Women, Gregory J. Boyle

Gregory J. Boyle

The present study investigated the effects of depressogenic statements on 154 normal young women, in relation to the late luteal phase of the female monthly cycle (paramenstruum). The women were allocated to a depressive-induction group or to either of two non-treatment groups. Multivariate ANOVAs indicated that paramenstrual women given the depressogenic statements reported more negative post-induction mood states than did other women. Four of the 12 mood states measured by the Differential Emotions Scale (DES-IV) were significantly elevated for the paramenstrual women in the depressive-induction group only (viz. Sadness, Hostility, Fear and Shame subscales). It was concluded that paramenstrual women …

Sequential Bargaining Mechanisms, Peter Cramton

Peter Cramton

The introductory discussion presented in this chapter considers the simplest type of sequential bargaining games in which the players’ time preferences are described by known and fixed discount rates. I begin by characterizing the class of perfect bargaining mechanisms, which satisfy the desirable properties of incentive compatibility (i.e., each player reports his type truthfully), individual rationality (i.e., every potential player wishes to play the game), and sequential rationality (i.e., it is never common knowledge that the mechanism induced over time is dominated by an alternative mechanism). It is shown that ex post efficiency is unobtainable by any incentive-compatible and individually …

O Desenvolvimento Urbano De Quito Entre Suas Crises Urbanas Mais Recentes, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

O desenvolvimento urbano de Quito apresenta, durante o último século, dois momentos cruciais: o primeiro, que vai desde a revolução liberal até o pós-guerra, caracterizado como um processo de transformações de notável envergadura e importância e o segundo, o único comparável em magnitude com o anterior, que se vive desde a modernização capitalista da década dos sessenta até hoje. Sem dúvida alguma, estes períodos deixaram profundas marcas no desenvolvimento posterior da cidade, a ponto de que o estudo e/ou planejamento de Quito atual e imediatamente futuro não podem desconhece-Ios sob nenhum pretexto.

A origem de cada um destes períodos pode …

From Balconies To Tanks: Post Junta Civil-Military Relations In Greece, Constantine P. Danopoulos

Constantine P. Danopoulos

This article analyzes the reasons why praetorianism in Greece has not been followed by more of the same, as appears to be the case in most states that have experienced military rule. After a careful examination of the available data, it was concluded that having learned their lesson, both the civilian and military elites have played a role in keeping the armed forces away from the levers of political authority, the civilians by following carrot and stick policies designed not to encroach on the military's corporate interests, and the armed forces by accepting the view that they can best protect …

Academic Library Services: The Literature Of Innovation, Jo Bell Whitlatch, Judy Reynolds

Jo Bell Whitlatch

Innovation has the potential for increasing the effectiveness of information service. As a result of this interest in innovation, organizational theorists have begun to explore the effect of organizational design upon flexibility, creativity, and productivity of organizations. A review of existing literature, however, provides no comprehensive theory of organizational innovation. Research on organizational design and innovation in libraries could contribute to the systematic study of the impact of organization structure . Studies by Howard and Luquire indicate that traditional library organizations may inhibit change as well as the reexamination of values and service. Further study is needed to determine how …
