Food security and health security : explaining the levels of nutrition in Pakistan
Get PDFMost influential studies of malnutrition and public policy have focused on energy availability and consumption, tending to equate hunger with malnutrition. But recent studies have explored how other factors - notably infection and levels of maternal education - affect nutrition. Alderman and Garcia's study of nutrition levels in Pakistan shows that raising household food consumption, for example, has less impact on nutritional levels than raising a mother's education does. They found that educating mothers to at least the primary level tends to reduce the level of child stunting 16.5 percent, or roughly 10 times the impact achieved by increasing per capita income 10 percent. (The impact of education is not immediately realized; the diffusion of knowledge about good hygiene and child care associated with learning has a cumulative effect.) Alderman and Garcia found that in Pakistan, food security alone is not enough to improve children's nutritional status. There may be welfare justifications for various food policies, but in rural Pakistan, especially, it is equally important to improve health and reduce infection.Health Economics&Finance,Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Early Child and Children's Health,Environmental Economics&Policies,Agricultural Knowledge&Information Systems

Optimasi Produksi Kurma Salak Menggunakan Metode Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) di Koperasi Agrina Desa Parsalakan Kecamatan Angkola Barat
Get PDFThis study aimed to achieve optimal production levels when handling Salak dates by minimizing total inventory costs. Inventory is one of the issues related to production process activities, costs and distribution of goods, whether raw materials, work in process or semi-finished or finished goods. Too much inventory or too much shortage can lead to losses as the company loses the opportunity to earn the profits the company should have earned. Therefore, inventory control includes all measures taken to ensure the availability of a specific quantity of stock. This study uses the EPQ model to determine the production level of salad dates with minimum total inventory cost. According to the calculations using stock control theory in this study, the optimal production level of salad dates per production cycle is 3322 boxes and the optimal time interval is 6.64 months. Based on the company's production conditions, the difference in procurement cost for Salak dates produced under EPQ mode is IDR 175,557,659.62 PagesSkripsi Sarjan
Verga, "Il Marito di Elena" e la pulsione di morte
No full textIl saggio interpreta il romanzo di Verga Il marito di Elena basandosi sull’ipotesi di lavoro
della presenza di un forte istinto di morte nel protagonista. L’omicidio finale è una sosti tuzione del suicidio, dell’annichilamento cui aspira Cesare Dorello. L’impianto del saggio
non è propriamente psicoanalitico, anche se fa uso di una terminologia genericamente
freudiana. L’ipotesi è rafforzata da una serie di riscontri relativi al motivo dell’autodistru zione in altri personaggi verghiani, prospettando una interpretazione globale dell’opera
di Verga in questa chiave, e rimandando ovviamente a un approfondimento futuro.The essay interprets Verga’s novel Il marito di Elena on the basis of a working hypothesis
about the presence of a strong death instinct in the protagonist. The final murder is
a substitution for suicide, i. e. for the annihilation, which Cesare Dorello aspires to.
The structure of the essay is not properly psychoanalytic, although it makes use of a
generically Freudian terminology. The author strengthens his hypothesis by a series of
findings regarding the motif of self-destruction in other Verga’s characters, suggesting
a global interpretation of Verga’s work in this key, and obviously referring to a future

"L\u27eterno marito" di F.M. Dostoevskij: un racconto del sottosuolo
No full textThe Eternal Husband, defined by its author as a ‘short story’, rasskaz, is considered to be one of the most formally perfect works that Dostoevsky ever wrote. Its thematic nucleus draws inspiration from a number of patterns and stylistic features typical of the comedic representation (vaudeville) of the love triangle, which undergo radical transformation in the narrative. The scenic dramatization expands the plot by fueling the verbal duel between the two protagonists, the “eternal husband” and the “eternal lover”. These are two personalities from the “underground”, closely interconnected, whose psychological content is presented in a complex way, by means of a peculiar organization of the narrative perspective. The present essay provides an account of the genesis of the short story, as well as of the main interpretations it has received over time. It also pays particular attention to the work’s literary genre, and offers an original reading of the novella’s epilogue.L’eterno marito, definito dal suo stesso autore ‘racconto’, rasskaz, è considerata una delle opere più perfette sotto il profilo formale che Dostoevskij abbia mai scritto. Il suo nucleo tematico trae spunto da alcuni schemi e stilemi caratteristici della rappresentazione comica (vaudeville) del triangolo amoroso, che nel racconto vengono sottoposti a radicale trasformazione. La drammatizzazione scenica espande il tessuto novellistico alimentando il duello verbale tra i due protagonisti, l’“eterno marito” e l’“eterno amante”, due personalità del sottosuolo strettamente correlate tra loro, il cui contenuto psicologico è presentato in modo complesso, anche grazie allа peculiare organizzazione del punto di vista nella narrazione. Nel saggio si dà conto della genesi e delle principali interpretazioni di cui il racconto è stato oggetto nel corso del tempo. Si pone inoltre particolare attenzione alla questione del genere letterario sottesa all’opera e si propone un’originale lettura dell’epilogo della novella

Romania's evolving legal framework for private sector development
Get PDFAs the economies of Central and Eastern Europe move from central planning and state ownership to market-driven development of private sector activity, they are undertaking comprehensive change in the"rules of the game", the legal framework for economic activity. The authors analyze the evolving legal framework for private sector development in Romania. The government has worked intensively in the last two years to create a legal framework for a market economy. It has adopted not only a new constitution but also extensive new legislation covering real and intellectual property, companies, and foreign investment. It has revived the pre-war civil code as a basis for contract law, and is moving to modernize its bankruptcy code. The only area surveyed in which little legal reform has occurred is antimonopoly law. Challenges remain in both law and practice. The broad principles of private ownership, free market exchange, and equal treatment of public and private firms are well recognized and have been largely achieved. But a tendency towards centralized, bureaucratic control remains in excessive requirements for approval and uneconomic limits on certain activities. Moreover, implementation will take a long time because there is little or no institutional framework for enforcement and dispute resolution. Developing a body of regulation and case practice will take time.Environmental Economics&Policies,National Governance,Legal Products,Banks&Banking Reform,Real&Intellectual Property Law
Higher education in Egypt
Get PDFEgypt's policy on higher education, the author argues, must take account of the realities of declining government budgets and employment and increasing reliance on the private sector, which must become more competitive internationally. Education in Egypt must increase Egyptians'ability to cope with economic disequilibria: to respond quickly and effectively to changing technological and market opportunities. The Government of Egypt's strategy for achieving this goal is to stabilize the number of university students and raise the quality of instruction. This fundamentally sound strategy, pursued since the mid-1980s, has required considerable courage of policymakers, who are struggling to correct a longtime, inequitable misallocation of educational resources. The Nasser regime greatly expanded higher education and guaranteed jobs to university graduates. As a result of rapidly growing enrollment in the 1970s and 1980s, the quality of education seriously deteriorated. Classes are too big and resources too scarce for anything but professorial salaries, so learning amounts to little more than memorization and repetition. The system does not foster the development of synthesizing, problem-solving, or creative thinking abilities. And with tertiary institutions over-enrolled, academic success requires the use of tutors, whose fees are beyond the reach of students of modest means.Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Environmental Economics&Policies,Teaching and Learning,Gender and Education,Tertiary Education
