Združba malih sesalcev močvirnih travnikov Ljubljanskega barja (Jugoslavija)
No full textSpring and autumn population densities and biomasses of small mammals were estimated by the removal standard minimum method during two consecutive years (1985-1986) in the marshy meadows of the Ljubljansko barje (NW Yugoslavia). Ten species of insectivores and rodents were recorded: Neomys fodiens, Neomys anomalus, Sorex araneus, Crocidura leucodon, Clethrionomys glareolus, Pilymys subterraneus, Microtus arvalis, Micro/us agreslis, Apodemus sylvaticus, and Apodemus flavicollis. M. arvalis was subdominant in 1985. M. agreslis and S. araneus were euconstant species. Population densilies in spring were between 29,7 and 101,7 ind./ha, and 253/7 ind./ha in autumn. Biomasses were between 632 and 2756 g/ha in spring and 4693 g/ha in autumn. Z izlovno melodo minimalnega kvadrata je bila na dveh testnih površinah na močvirnih travnikih Ljubljanskega barja spomladi in jeseni 1985 in 1986 ocenjena populacijska gostota in biomasa malih sesalcev. Ujete so bile vrste Neomysfodiens, Neomysanomalus, Sorex araneus, Crocidura leucodon, Clethrionomys glareolus, Pitymys suhlerraneus, Microtus arvalis, Microtus agrestis, Apodemus sylvaticus in Apodemus flavicollis. M. arvalis je bil v letu 1985 subdominantna vrsta. M. agrestis in S. araneus sta se pojavljali evkonstantno. Spomladanska ocena populacijske gostote je bila 29,7 do 101,7 osebkov/ha, jesenska pa 253,7 osebkov/ha. Spomlndanska biomasa je bila 632 do 2756 g/ha, jesenska pa 4693 g/ha

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
On the bicanonical map of irregular varieties
No full textFrom the point of view of uniform bounds for the birationality of pluricanonical maps, irregular varieties of general type and maximal Albanese dimension behave similarly to curves. In fact Chen-Hacon showed that, at least when their holomorphic Euler characteristic is positive, the tricanonical map of such varieties is always birational. In this paper we study the bicanonical map. We consider the natural subclass of varieties of maximal Albanese dimension formed by primitive varieties of Albanese general type. We prove that the only such varieties with non-birational bicanonical map are the natural higher-dimensional generalization to this context of curves of genus : varieties birationally equivalent to the theta-divisor of an indecomposable principally polarized abelian variety. The proof is based on the (generalized) Fourier-Mukai transform

Capitalization and Privatization in Bolivia: An Aproximation to an Evaluation
No full textThe paper describes the privatization process in Bolivia, placing emphasis on the particularities of the capitalization mechanism that was used for this purpose, and the regulatory framework introduced as its essential complement. With this background, the paper then details the changes in the industrial organization and ownership patterns in the electricity, oil and gas, telecommunications, transportation, and water industries. The discussion then turns to these processes’ economic and social consequences. In the first case, the key issues are which agents benefited from the transfer of assets, and the effects on firm-level variables like investment, profitability, and transfers to the State. With regards to social outcomes, we focus on the effects on employees and consumers. For the first, interest centers on what happened to employment and wages in the sectors affected; for the second, what occurred to access and prices for privatized utilities, and to welfare more generally. This paper touches on all these issues, although in several cases a full treatment is not possible due to data limitations.Privatization; Regulation; Economic Impact
The Right to Strike under the United States Constitution: Theory, Practice, and Possible Implications for Canada
No full textAnswering critics of the Canadian Supreme Court's judgment in B.C. Health, the author argues that the Court laid the foundation for a principled and durable doctrine protecting constitutional labour rights, one that goes directly to the heart of the matter — the inequality of workers’ power in the employment relation. In the author’s view, two paths could lead from B.C. Health to the recognition of Charter protec- tion for a right to strike: one that treats the right as an accessory to col- lective bargaining, and one that upholds the right directly on the basis of the Charter values of equality and participation. The author supports the latter approach, contending that constitutional rights should be defined in relation to fundamental values, in a way that is not contingent on time-bound or fact-sensitive assessments about the role of strikes within a particular collective bargaining regime. Although a Charter right to strike may involve the courts in difficult choices about when to defer to legislative policy decisions, and courts may lack the institutional capac- ity to deal effectively with labour law issues, the author points out that judges can look to ILO standards for expert guidance. Noting that the U.S. experience in this area might be of considerable use to Canadians, the author concludes by providing an overview of American case law concerning a constitutional right to strike.Peer reviewe
Bolivian capitalization and privatization: Approximation to an evaluation
No full textThe wave of privatizations Latin America experienced during the 1990s was integral to stabilization programs and a general reordering of states’ roles in the regional economy. Over the past few years, however, these privatizations have come under increasing fire. Their purported adverse effects range from higher utility prices to aggravating—or even causing—the current regional recession. In short, privatization shares in the criticism directed at the entire liberalization process. Within this context, accurate knowledge of privatization’s real consequences can be of considerable value. While research has been conducted on certain economic effects, less is known about privatization’s broader social consequences. This chapter attempts to fill some of those gaps as they concern Bolivia.Privatization; Industrial Organization and Regulation; Firm Performance; Consumer Welfare; Political Economy
