Collective Action in Plant Breeding
Full text linkOlson (1965) formulated a "Logic of Collective Action". We investigate whether a logic of collective action in plant breeding - and research and development generally - can be constructed. Using a case study on the Latin American Fund for Irrigated Rice (FLAR) as well as other real-world institutions of collective action in R&D, we construct an expanded logic of collective action, which revolves around two core features: Impure public goods and the tragedy of the anticommons. Provisions of FLAR and other institutions are related to game theory and contract theory, and theoretical, methodological and policy implications are outlined.Institutional and Behavioral Economics,
Collection collective: collection of contemporary art
No full textCollection Collective was initiated as a speculative curatorial proposal wherein a group of artists, designers, architects, lawyers, economists, and cultural producers were invited to reflect on the possibility of constructing a contemporary art collection that is owned and managed collectively by its members. As a curatorial research hypothesis, the project asked whether an alternative can be identified to narratives which, from the Florentine studiolo and the Kunstkammer, and up to contemporary private collections, conceives the phenomenon of collecting as an alibi for a narcissistic self-identification of the private subject. It functions according to a very simple principle: each member offers work for the collection according to skill and expertise.
For the first stage of the project, Judit Angel, Raluca Voinea, and Vlad Morariu invited cultural workers with whom they had already collaborated and had established a history of friendship and mutual trust. The project materialised in Bratislava, in late 2017, where a first model of the collection was publicly presented at Collection Collective: Template for a Future Model of Representation, an exhibition that took place at tranzit.sk. The space also represented a good occasion for the participants to meet at an internal seminar, which saw the official founding of the Collection. Thus, Bratislava represented a transition point from an ‘acting as if’ phase – acting as if the Collection existed - to a collective commitment to the articulation and implementation of the Collection. In Bratislava we interrogated the way this project positions itself within contemporary art world discourses, its aims and objectives, and its functioning principles. Friendship and mutual respect should remain a guiding value for the collection’s expansion and thus, during 2018, each founding member has invited new members to join in. The Collection now includes more than 50 members
At present Collection Collective embodies a prototypical international art collection established, owned, and managed collectively by its members. It is rooted in three tenets that determine the current conditions for the production, presentation, and consumption of culture and art:
(1) The precarity of public cultural institutions in Europe and beyond, which facing a growing wave of right-wing populisms and nationalisms, and the demands to show value for money, fail to include works that critically address the status quo in their collections. Collection Collective represents an effort to reintroduce to the public discourse the question of political and cultural autonomy, through creating an institutional machine for empowerment, visibility, and representation.
(2) The systemic conditions of cultural production, which encourage opportunism and competition between cultural workers, and whose result is the destruction of collective forms of organisation, resistance, and struggle. Collection Collective responds to the urgency of articulating sustainable models of collective legitimation and representation where collectivity is based on politics of friendship, mutual respect, and recognition.
(3) The humanitarian, ecological, and political crises to which a culture based on private patronage is incapable of responding. Collection Collective does not only question whether collecting is possible beyond the whims, tastes, and likes of the private collector; it also represents an attempt to rethink the functions, roles, and purposes of collecting as a collective practice recording and shaping our contemporary condition.

A Coupled SFM-ASCRIBE Model To Investigate the Influence of Emotions and Collective Behavior in Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Crowds
Full text linkThe understanding of crowd behavior dynamics holds immense significance in ensuring public safety across a range of situations, including emergency evacuations and large-scale events. Our research focuses on two primary objectives: investigating the impact of emotions on crowd movement and gaining valuable insights into collective behavior within crowds. To achieve this, we present a coupled model, incorporating an enhanced ASCRIBE model with an agent displacement model. We introduce heterogeneity into our model by incorporating specific mobility laws for different categories of panicked crowds, considering the influence of emotions on both speed and direction. Through numerical simulations, we analyze the model's parameters, observe the behavior of uniform crowds, and explore the collective dynamics within diverse crowds. By conducting comprehensive simulations and analyses, the findings from this study can contribute to the development of more effective crowd management strategies and emergency evacuation protocols
Collective Household Models: Principles and Main Results.
Full text linkIn the traditional approach to consumer behaviour it is assumed that households behave as if they were single decision making units. This approach has methodological, empirical and welfare economic deficiencies. A valuable alternative to the traditional model is the collective approach to household behaviour. The collective approach explicitly takes account of the fact that many person households consist of several members which may have different preferences. Among these household members, an intrahousehold bargaining process is assumed to take place. Next to providing an introduction to the collective approach, this survey intends to show how different collective household models, each with their own aims and assumptions, are connected.collective household models, household bargaining, intrahousehold allocation, consumption behaviour, labour supply.
The Romantic Collective Author
Full text linkAlthough the romantic collective author is a much more elusive creature than its romantic individual counterpart, it can be discerned amidst the proliferation of expression on the Internet. This article first outlines the ways in which the romantic author effect operates through both its genius and its arbiter prongs within collaborative authorship practices in digital networks. It next turns to scientific collaboration, where this author effect is attenuated, to assess whether scientific authorship practices might contribute to a more realistic and less romantic understanding of expressive authorship practices. A subsequent case study of collaborative digital authorship by Wikipedia contributors uncovers some of the underlying social processes giving rise to Wikipedia’s position of collective genius and authority. Analysis of these collaborative authorship processes reveals implicit certification functions, which can obscure various biases that should be addressed in order to shape a more inclusive and reliable knowledge environment
Out of Scope Employees in Turkish Collective Bargaining System
Full text linkCollective Bargaining is the process in which labor unions representing workers on the one hand and employers or employers’ institutions on the other gather and come to the table in order to determine working rules and conditions of both parties and the process to conclude the collective agreement. In Article 39 of 6356 numbered Law of Trade Unions and Collective Labor Agreement, issues about benefiting from a collective labor agreement are included. Out-of-scope employee concept in industrial relation application refers to people excluded from collective labor agreement regime even though they are able to be member of a labor union, and even they are, as a result of consensus of the parties of collective labor agreement, in other words those to whom collective labor agreement is not applied. Exclusion of some workers such as directors, chiefs, engineers and even all office employees which are members or able to be a member of labor unions from the scope of the agreement is an encountered case in the application of collective labor agreements and this issue is regulated through scope articles included in collective labor agreements. The circumstances of out of scope employees cause discussions
