Governance, Economic Growth and Development since the 1960s
Get PDFLiberal economists have developed a framework of good governance as market-enhancing governance, focusing on governance capabilities that reduce transaction costs and enable markets to work more efficiently. In contrast, heterodox economists have stressed the role of growth-enhancing governance, which focuses on governance capacities to overcome entrenched market failures in allocating assets, acquiring productivity-enhancing technologies and maintaining political stability in contexts of rapid social transformation. The two are not necessarily mutually exclusive, but current policy exclusively focuses on the former, and ignores the strong empirical and historical evidence supporting the latter to the detriment of the growth prospects of poor countries.governance, market failures, transaction costs

Redescription and redefinition of the genus Chiltana Shakila-Mushtaq & Akbar, 1995 (Hemiptera, Fulgoromorpha, Dictyopharidae, Dictyopharini), with description of a new species from Pakistan
No full textThe genus Chiltana Shakila-Mushtaq & Akbar, 1995 is redescribed and redefined based on the types and new material from Pakistan. Chiltana includes two species, C. acarinata sp. n. and C. baluchi Shakila-Mushtaq & Akbar, 1995 (the type species), both from Chiltan, Balochistan, Pakistan. A key to the species of the genus is provided. Nomenclatorial remarks on original publication, author, and date of Chiltana are given

A Systematic Literature Review on the Implementation and Challenges of Zero Trust Architecture Across Domains
No full textThe Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) model has emerged as a foundational cybersecurity
paradigm that eliminates implicit trust and enforces continuous verification across users, de-
vices, and networks. This study presents a systematic literature review of 74 peer-reviewed
articles published between 2016 and 2025, spanning domains such as cloud computing
(24 studies), Internet of Things (11), healthcare (7), enterprise and remote work systems (6),
industrial and supply chain networks (5), mobile networks (5), artificial intelligence and
machine learning (5), blockchain (4), big data and edge computing (3), and other emerging
contexts (4). The analysis shows that authentication, authorization, and access control
are the most consistently implemented ZTA components, whereas auditing, orchestration,
and environmental perception remain underexplored. Across domains, the main chal-
lenges include scalability limitations, insufficient lightweight cryptographic solutions for
resource-constrained systems, weak orchestration mechanisms, and limited alignment with
regulatory frameworks such as GDPR and HIPAA. Cross-domain comparisons reveal that
cloud and enterprise systems demonstrate relatively mature implementations, while IoT,
blockchain, and big data deployments face persistent performance and compliance barriers.
Overall, the findings highlight both the progress and the gaps in ZTA adoption, under-
scoring the need for lightweight cryptography, context-aware trust engines, automated
orchestration, and regulatory integration. This review provides a roadmap for advancing
ZTA research and practice, offering implications for researchers, industry practitioners, and
policymakers seeking to enhance cybersecurity resilience
