Pro-Poor Governance: Evidence on Incentivizing Policy Implementation in Brazil
No full textTo analyse the relationship between municipal characteristics and governance implementation as measured by the IGD, this study combines sociodemographic data from national censuses, data on the Bolsa Família programme, including the IGD, from the Ministry of Social Development, annual administrative data reported by IBGE, financial data in the FINBRA database, electoral data from the TSE and coding of political parties’ ideology by Borges and Vidigal (2023). The data cover the period when the IGD has been operational and for which data are widely available, from 2007-2021
Lippe brick-makers: database
No full text
Online HTML Editor-->
This dataset is part of the Lippe brickmakers project.
It contains two files:
A file in tabular format (.tab): in each row there is data about a person (brick-maker) from Lippe and it's migratory seasonal work. The original "code book" can be found in this web page, which is also archived at the Internet Archive's Wayback machine. A list with the main columns is also presented here below.
A file in n-triples format (.nt), wich contains the same data as the previous file but represented in linked data format (triples). This linked data version is the basis for exploring and querying the data via this "data story" via the linked data publication platform.
These are the columns in this dataset and what they contain:
'row', 'ID', 'original_source', 'original_ID': these columns contain legacy Ids from the previous databases where the data resided before it was uploaded.
'Signatur', 'Folio_original', 'Folio': In the Lippe archive there is a "fond" (broader unit) identified with number L77A. This fond contains different "signaturen", for example, "4698", or "4716". Both numbers (L77A, and 4698) were assigned by the archive who hosted the original scans (Landesarchiv Nordrhein-Westfalen). For more information see the "Lippe brickmakers project: archival pages transcriptions" dataset.

Bezirk: district

Ortschaft:: Locality, town or district of Lipper where the worker lived or lives before going for work. It can also be in the border areas of Lipper.
Kataster: cadastral number of the farms in Lippe-Detmold. Residents do not have their own cadastral number.
Beziehung: (relationship)
Colon: in the passport lists it should be mentioned whether a worker is a colon - owner of the colonate - or his son.
Kötter: whether a worker is a peasant or a resident.
Enrolliert: (in military service).
Alter: age of the worker
Wohin: suspected workplace on migrant labour.
Nächster_Stadt: Next_City
Land: country or province of the workplace.
Wie_lange: passports are issued for a specific period of time.
Datum: date of the work passport.
Fabrik: names of the brick manufacturers or the company.
Arbeit: labour, job
Arbeit_q: A: The work is explicitly mentioned in the source. B: The work is derived from the source.
Betragen: remark about the behaviour in the workplace.
Gruppe: number of the group in the brick messenger lists. Some lists are numbered consecutively, others are numbered by area. Numbers used in error for the second time are numbered differently.
Grösse: size of the workers' group.
Grösse_q: A: Size was a number; B: Size is calculated from the persons named per group.
Stellung: sequence number of the worker within the group.
Notiz: remarks at the fields or references after the individual named outside the lists.
page_scan_url: link to the digitized scan of the page from which the data was extracted.

26.010 Bodegraven - Willemstraat 59
No full textBij archeologisch onderzoek ter plaatse van de Willemstraat 59 in Bodegraven zijn twee eiken (Quercus sp.) palen geborgen en bemonsterd voor dendrochronologisch onderzoek.
Over de context van de vondsten is geen informatie verstrekt.
Beide monsters kunnen gedateerd worden in de eerste eeuw na Chr.
Vondstnr. 21.2 dateert in 61 na Chr. en uit de aanwezigheid van de wankant volgt een kapseizoen in de herfst/winter van 61/62 na Chr.
Vondstnr.22.2 dateert in 28 na Chr. Het spinthout is deel bewaard gebleven en hiermee kan een kapinterval rond 35 na Chr. geschat worden

Do countries really need to build absorptive capacity to benefit from FDI? Estimating policy-relevant interaction terms with panel data
No full textThis paper is number 200 in the Groningen Growth and Development's Research Memoranda series.
Abstract
Foreign direct investment is often promoted as a driver of economic growth.
But its benefits are thought to depend on host countries’ ‘absorptive capacities’
such as human capital, financial development, trade openness, or institutional
quality. We use recent advances in panel data econometrics to revisit this con-
ventional wisdom that has shaped decades of policy advise. Our approach is the
first in this literature that disentangles the effects of policy-relevant changes in ab-
sorptive capacities from time-invariant country fundamentals that policies cannot
alter. Using a sample of approximately 120 countries over five decades, we find
that time-invariant country fundamentals explain most heterogeneity in the FDI-
growth nexus. Among the four policy-relevant capacities examined, only greater
trade openness plausibly enhances this nexus. And even in this case, fewer than
10% of countries fail to reach the threshold where FDI appears growth-enhancing.
By contrast, improving human capital, financial development, and institutional
quality do not robustly increase the benefits from FDI, and may even dampen
them. These findings challenge the prevailing emphasis on broad absorptive ca-
pacity building as a precondition for benefiting from FDI
Navigation ability in patients with acquired brain injury: A population-wide online study
No full textThe ability to travel independently is a vital part of an autonomous life. It is important to investigate to what degree people with acquired brain injuries (ABI) suffer from navigation impairments. The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and characteristics of objective and subjective navigation impairments in the population of ABI patients. A large-scale online navigation study was conducted with 435 ABI patients and 7474 healthy controls. Participants studied a route through a virtual environment and completed 5 navigation tasks that assessed distinct functional components of navigation ability. Subjective navigation abilities were assessed using the Wayfinding questionnaire. Patients were matched to controls using propensity score matching. Overall, performance on objective navigation tasks was significantly lower in the ABI population compared to the healthy controls. The landmark recognition, route continuation and allocentric location knowledge tasks were most vulnerable to brain injury. The prevalence of subjective navigation impairments was higher in the ABI population compared to the healthy controls. In conclusion, a substantial proportion (39.1%) of the ABI population reports navigation impairments. We advocate the evaluation of objective and subjective navigation ability in neuropsychological assessments of ABI patients
