A Menon-type identity using Klee's function
No full textsummary:Menon's identity is a classical identity involving gcd sums and the Euler totient function . A natural generalization of is the Klee's function . We derive a Menon-type identity using Klee's function and a generalization of the gcd function. This identity generalizes an identity given by Y. Li and D. Kim (2017)

Women's labor market status and economic development
No full textThis chapter focuses on the structural drivers and constraints associated with the transition of women from unremunerated or low-paid production to higher-value work in three important labor market domains: entrepreneurship, agriculture, and wage employment. Understanding the drivers behind these types of employment and the constraints that women face can help to develop new policies that better support workers and their families, stimulate employment generation in countries with rapid labor force growth, and promote entrepreneurial activities that spur innovation and progress. In the spirit of these objectives, this chapter examines best practices in transforming women to be successful entrepreneurs, farmers, and wage workers. The chapter closes with the links between gender equality and economic growth, concluding that promoting gender equality can be a "gender-smart" way to achieve sustained economic development
Gender inequality in the labor market during economic transition: changes in India’s manufacturing sector
No full textTrade policy liberalization and gender equality in the labor market: new evidence for India
No full textResults of our empirical specifications indicate that increasing trade openness in India’s more concentrated manufacturing industries is associated with growing residual wage gaps between male and female employees. This finding suggests that with declining rents in the concentrated sector post-liberalization, women appear to have borne the brunt of cost-cutting practices in firms’ compensation decisions. By analyzing the effects of the Indian trade liberalization on relative pay in manufacturing industries, and by providing empirical evidence that female employees appear to have fared less well as compared to their male counterparts, this study demonstrates that not everyone benefited equally as a consequence of the reforms.Peer reviewe
Credit and self-employment
No full textThis chapter explores how women’s and men’s employment decisions respond to credit, with a particular focus on self-employment. The chapter also explores how new opportunities for women to engage in self-employment can have spillover effects within the household, especially for women’s bargaining power and the well-being of their children. Understanding the reasons why women and men decide to engage in self-employment can help to develop new policies that better support workers and their families, stimulate employment generation in countries with rapid labor force growth, and promote innovative entrepreneurial activities
"Mephistopheles in a Savile Row Suit": V. K. Krishna Menon and the West
No full textIn the late 1940s, through the 1950s, and into the early 1960s, Vengalil Krishnan (V. K.) Krishna Menon was one of the handful of post-colonial politicians who led what became known as the “revolt against the West” (Barraclough 1988 [1964]; Bull 1984; Clark 1958; Hall 2011; Mishra 2012). That “revolt” was one of the most significant and consequential phases in modern international relations. It brought about the rapid decolonization of the European empires in Africa and Asia, creating dozens of new sovereign states, transforming the United Nations and the conduct of international relations between North and South, rich and poor, as well as within the developing world. It challenged the power and the legitimacy of both sides in the Cold War, although the authors of the “revolt,” including Menon, tended to focus most of their ire on what they perceived to be an exploitative and “neocolonial” United States.No Full Tex

Plat. Men. 70a-b: Menon
No full textIn diesem Dialog des Sokrates mit Menon ist das zentrale Thema, ob etwas erlernbar, übbar oder von Natur aus vorhanden ist. Dies wird v. a. anhand der Areté erörtert, wobei das Zitat den Ausgangspunkt darstellt. Die Thessalier werden hier als ob ihres Reichtums, ihrer Reitkunst und ihrer Weisheit bekannt gezeigt. Die Charakterisierung der Thessaler als gute Reiter findet sich in der antiken Literatur des Öfteren (vgl. u. a. Plat. Hipp. mai. 284a; Plat. leg. 625c-d.). Xen. Hell. 6,1,9-10 und Diod. 15,85,4-5 gelten sie zudem als talentierte Speerwerfer
