fashion to economic growth. Banerjee and Duflo (2007) make a useful distinction between four distinct contributions that the middle class make. I choose to focus on only one of these contributions and that influences why I define the middle class in a particular way. There are other legitimate ways of defining the middle class, but I wish to focus on what may be termed “the consumer class”. First, Banerjee and Duflo note the links between the middle class and democracy. If democracy is then causally

We do not avoid research data in this book, but we abjure becoming dependent on statistical averages to describe the aging process. Our focus is more on aging as it is experienced by different kinds of people living under divergent life circumstances. We have written a personal view of aging that adopts the standpoint of various kinds of people who are coping either well or badly with the

externalities. This research found major limitations in techniques available for measuring the first two types in quantitative terms. For this reason, and because this research suggested that macroeconomic externalities were likely to be dominant, we focus on this type in the current research. Below, we report on a literature review of the impacts of energy insecurity relating to oil, gas, coal and electricity supply on the basis of which we move towards estimation of the ‘externality unit values’ for

vegetable basket systems or experiments in Fair Trade at the local and regional levels. Since 1999, the Workshop has been of the opinion that “Fair Trade must come up with an expanded definition of its objectives, allowing it to embrace new models whose focus is more on local development.” (1999-1: 4). At the 2003 WSF, many participants in the workshop sessions highlighted the importance of rethinking Fair Trade at the local level, stressing the need to develop Fair Trade ties in the South within countries

Compared with earlier issues, the review has been streamlined and some of the regular sections have been shortened to facilitate reading. At the same time, the review contains three special features that present analytical work on the international role of the euro. The main special feature focuses on the implications of international currency

data or inadequacies of the econometric specification. When we compare the different studies in the recent empirical literature on human capital and growth, perhaps the clearest regularity we find is that results are typically much better when we focus on cross-section or pooled data estimates, and get considerably worse when we consider the results of first-differenced, fixed effects or 2 within specifications -- which rely more heavily on the time-series variation of the data. To put it in a slightly

L’origine de la « théorie de système » de Relations internationales,3 se trouve en sciences naturelles. Bertalanffy a posé les fondements de la théorie de système général avec son théorème biologique nommé la théorie de système de l’organisme (the system theory of the organisme) dans les années 1920. C’est ainsi que la notion de théorie de système général a été premièrement formulée oralement dans les années 1930 et puis a paru dans de diverses publications signées par Bertalanffy après la Seconde Guerre
