    Bike Couriers and the City ‘Mess’: Ciclo-logistica e corrieri in bicicletta, a Milano = Bike Couriers and the City 'Mess': Cycle logistics and bike couriers in Milan

    No full text
    Cycle logistics (the delivery of material goods operated by couriers using cargo bikes) is a unique resource and a strategic perspective to reduce the negative impacts of motorized traffic in urban and metropolitan areas. Starting from the analysis of bike couriers and messengers’ subculture, this paper investigates the activities of UBM (the most important cycle logistics company in Milan), with a particular focus on the ‘lockdown’ phase determined by the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020. Finally, the paper points out the relevant specific knowledge that bike couriers could provide to rethinking our cities’ mobility in the future: a more inclusive and antifragile cycling mobility

    Mgr. et Mgr. Adam SÝKORA: Missale Posoniense I. - diplomatic edition (rigorous thesis), Charles University in Prague, Faculty of Catholic Theology, 2011. In the present thesis the author provides a diplomatic edition of one of the oldest collegial missals of Bratislava Chapter House: Missale Posoniense I.

The text of this Missal was previously published only in facsimile form, which bears the technical limitations of the period of its creation. Since that time, other foils have been discovered that have not been published at all.

Adam SÝKORA: Missale Posoniense I. - diplomatické vydání (rigorózna práca), Univerzita Karlova v Praze, Katolická teologická fakulta, 2011. V predkladanej práci autor prináša diplomatické spracovanie textu jedného z najstarších misálov Bratislavskej kolegiálnej kapituly: Missale Posoniense I. Ide o centrálny prameň európskeho významu, ktorý je vzorovo normatívny a reprezentatívny vzhľadom na analogické pamiatky (napr. Missale Posoniense A, B, C, II., III., IV.), ktorý sa používal v prostredí bratislavskej kapituly pred rokom 1341. Text tohto misála bol doteraz publikovaný iba vo faximilnej podobe, ktorá nesie technické obmedzenia doby svojho vzniku, odvtedy boli objavené aj ďalšie folie, ktoré zatiaľ neboli publikované vôbec. Odborej verejnosti tak predkladá text, s ktorým už môže efektívne pracovať, navyše tým pripravuje pôdu na kritické vydanie úplného textu zachovaných častí, ktoré zamýšľa publikovať v dizertačnej práci.

    Natural killer (NK) cells play a major role in antitumor immune responses. Recent results from our laboratory demonstrate the impact of the immunogenetic background on the activity of NK cells and hence on the outcome of hepatocellular carcinoma, disclosing perspectives for the development of NK-cell based therapies

    Multilateral indexed loans and debt sustainability

    We study the potential for introducing indexation on loans provided by multilateral lenders to LICs, and thus whether a reform of their lending policy is feasible and economically justified. To this end, we provide new evidence for a group of 40 IDA countries over the 1990-2010 period for three types of debt: i) foreign currency loans indexed to real GDP; ii) foreign currency loans indexed to the dollar value of exports; iii) inflation-indexed loans denominated in local currency. We find that both GDP indexation and domestic currency lending are feasible policies, since individual country risk could be easily diversified in a portfolio of loans to IDA countries. The estimation of CAPM beta coefficients suggests that, while the risk of export-indexed loans is difficult to hedge, loans indexed to GDP or denominated in local currencies could be introduced at current interest rates; their risk premium is no greater than one percent. The insurance that indexed debt might offer to LICs against macroeconomic shocks threatening their debt sustainability depends on the conditional covariances of GDP growth, real exchange-rate depreciation and net exports that we estimate as the covariances of the forecast errors obtained from a VAR model. The analysis shows that GDP-indexed or export-indexed loans would help to stabilize the debt ratio of the majority of IDA countries in our sample, but a larger number of them would benefit from a re-denomination of loans in local currency. A main lesson from our analysis is that a ‘one size fits all solution’ does not exist to the problem of stabilizing the debt ratio. This suggests that a reform of multilateral lending that is desirable to all LICs would be difficult to implemen

    Public debt indexation and denomination with an independent central bank

    This paper examines the interaction between public debt management and the design of monetary institutions. The analysis shows that delegation of monetary policy to an independent central bank is more effective in containing inflationary expectations than the use of foreign currency or inflation-indexed debt. If delegation of monetary policy is viable, the optimal policy is to issue nominal debt. This increases the sensitivity of taxes and output to unexpected inflation, thus minimizing the inflation needed to offset supply shocks. Evidence on central bank independence, debt composition and output variability suggests that the normative argument has some positive content
