Does Aid Induce Brain Drain? The Effect of Foreign Aid on Migration Selection
Recent evidence suggests that aid induces migration. However, total migration is quite general from a policy perspective since what explains the welfare consequences of migration is the extent of emigration selection. In this paper we ask whether skilled or unskilled migration is more sensitive to aid and to the different mechanisms through which aid may affect self-selection among international emigrants. We show that aid induces positive selection. And that the effect on skilled migration is larger than the effect on unskilled migration. As possible mechanisms to explain the relation, we find that aid induces skilled migration by reducing transaction and information costs, by improving the distribution of schooling, and by helping to overcome liquidity constraints.Foreign aid, International migration, Self-selection, Brain drain.

Self-Triggered Robust Control of Nonlinear Stochastic Systems
In this chapter, results on self-triggering control for nonlinear systems are presented. Conditions guaranteeing the existence of a self-triggered control strategy stabilizing the closed-loop system are presented both for deterministic and stochastic nonlinear systems. The problems addressed are self-triggered stabilization and safety. In the stochastic case, the state equations are described by an Itô differential equation driven by a Wiener noise, where the input enters either in the deterministic dynamics or in the dynamics affected by the noise. This kind of model embraces a quite large class of systems, of particular interest since in practice. In fact, various disturbances can be modeled in this way

A Way not to Follow; the Art not to Know. Inspired by Patricia De Martelaere's Work on Taoism
© 2015 by Tijdschrift voor Filosofie. All rights reserved. Patricia De Martelaere (1957-2009) was a Belgian (and Flemish) author, philosopher, and practitioner of shadowboxing. She wrote an inspiring little book on Taoism that stresses the physical, energetic, and martial aspects of its practice. This paper elaborates upon three central ideas from her work, turns them into a direction that she did not envision, and applies them to a critical-historical interpretation of the Taoist texts that she elaborates upon: an active way of non-knowing, the awareness of a shared ground, and the intellectual fertility resulting from this approach. By occasionally putting aside certain assumptions from contemporary research on early Chinese Taoist philosophers - with respect to books, authors, philosophical consistency, schools, etc. - we can offer alternative accounts to the now dominant forms of interpretation. This approach does not take a position in favor of or against the existence or importance of such entities as "books", "philosophers", or "schools" in pre-imperial China. Nor does it promote an alternative for the dominant narratives. It simply allows for a degree of openness with respect to these narratives, thereby allowing for greater nuance that is at risk of being suffocated in the current context of academic philosophy.status: Publishe
