Brief von Anthony Atkinson an Kurt Rothschild ([1]
The Economics of Giving for Overseas Development
No full textGiving by individuals for development has been illustrated recently by some spectacular examples. A few people giving very large sums, and a very large number of people giving modest amounts, are both important phenomena in the field of development finance. This paper considers how in theory such behaviour might be explained using the tools of economic analysis. The paper is about the economics of giving, but focused on why people give to a particular cause – world development. There has been an extensive literature on the total volume of giving, but much less on the allocation by cause. Giving for development does not seem to be adequately explained by either the “warm-glow” or the “public good” models. The paper suggests a new “identification” approach to individual giving, which combines the results focus of the public goods formulation with the scale of the warm glow model. The analysis initially treats giving for development in isolation, but goes on to examine how development causes fit into the pattern of overall charitable giving by individuals and the pattern of giving over the individual lifetime
Correspondence between E. B. A (E.B. Atkinson) and Zebulon Weaver, April, 1932
No full textZebulon Weaver (1872-1948) was a lawyer and U.S. Representative from western North Carolina. He was a member of the North Carolina Park Commission and was involved in the land acquisition process that went towards establishment of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and development of the Blue Ridge Parkway.
This set of two letters deals primarily with the issue of Atkinson’s appeal for financial help from Weaver. Following are brief summaries of each of these letters:
E.B.A (E.B. Atkinson) to Zebulon Weaver, April 12, 1932
In this two- page letter, Atkinson queries Weaver regarding the favorable outcome of case of the of Floyd Brothers and the Park and also about the possibility of Weaver giving him some money to save his financial standing in the community.
Zebulon Weaver to E.B. Atkinson, April 15, 1932
In this letter Weaver acknowledges receiving Atkinson’s letter and asks him to meet with George Ward for defraying some of the costs related to the case and also states he was currently not in a position to help Atkinson monetarily
In Memoriam: Anthony B. Atkinson (1944-2017)
No full textBritish economist Anthony B. Atkinson (1944-2017) died on 1 January 2017. This text recalls his figure and his contributions to the economy of inequality. In response to market failures, Atkinson advocated compensating public sector activity through the Welfare State as an economic policy proposal to combat inequality.El 1 de enero de 2017 fallecía el economista británico Anthony B. Atkinson (1944-2017). El presente texto recuerda su figura y sus aportaciones a la economía de la desigualdad. Frente a los fallos del mercado, Atkinson defendía una actividad compensadora del sector público a través del Estado de Bienestar como propuesta de política económica de lucha contra la desigualdad
Exclusion, employment and opportunity
No full textThe relationships between employment, education, opportunity, social exclusion and poverty are central to current policy debates. Atkinson argues that the concepts of poverty, unemployment and social exclusion are closely related, but are not the same. People may be poor without being socially excluded, and vice versa. Unemployment may cause poverty, but this can be prevented. Equally, marginal jobs do not ensure social inclusion. Britton argues that convential economic analysis misses a key part of the problem of unemployment: the role of work in providing self-esteem and non-material parts of human well-being. Hills examines whether new evidence on income mobility implies less worry about inequality and relative poverty. Some low income is transitory, but the 'poverty problem' discounting this remains 80-90 per cent of that shown by cross-section surveys. Machin finds that intergenerational mobility is limited in terms of earnings and education, and that childhood disadvantage has effects long into adult life and is an important factor in maintaining immobility of economic status across generations. Arulampalam and Booth suggest that there is a trade-off between expanding more marginal forms of employment and expanding the proportion of the workforce getting work-related training. Workers in temporary or short-term contracts, part-time, and non-unionised employment are less likely to receive work-related training. Green and colleagues compare 1986 and 1997 surveys to show that skill levels for British workers have been rising, not just in the qualifications needed to get jobs, but also in the skills actually used in them. There is no evidence of 'credentialism'
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
