Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Financing of Public Sector Infrastructure has taken a new twist within the past two decades. Traditional modes of infrastructure procurement are gradually been replaced with the new model, the Private Finance Initiative, PFI. Developing Countries are however yet to tap into and utilise the PFI to help alleviate their infrastructure quagmires due to the structure of these economies which makes it unattractive to the private sector. By way of simulation of an educational infrastructure project to be procured through the Build Operate Transfer model of the PFI in a developing country, Ghana, this book has developed a strategy and a framework to surmount the structural economic features which has staggered the adoption and implementation of the PFI in these economies. Aimed at individuals and organisations involved in the procurement and financing of public sector infrastructure in developing countries, this book provides governments, policy makers, Project Managers and construction firms, students on PFI and Development Financing Courses with sound information on strategies to adopt when considering utilising PFIs in realising public sector infrastructure in developing countries. 88 pp. Englisch.

It could also be taken as a source that highlights on the media satisfaction of young audience, particularly young audience in Addis Ababa. The thesis is definitely an illustration of developing country s audience preferences and media program offerings that commonly target the youth. As a result, in this volume one can easily view how media is strongly associated with the interests of young people even if there are delimiting factors that can cause some gaps to prevail and prevent the co-existence of media programs with satisfaction of young audience. The young audience also attempted to speak their minds by clearly outlining the programs which they are satisfied with. In contrast, other youth also reflected the contents of programs that dissatisfy them. Generally, this publication is an invaluable portrayal of young audience satisfaction vis-à-vis programs of selected FM radios in Addis Ababa. 92 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In Ontario, the organs of deceased donors are usually allocated to those recipients who are ranked highest on the province s waiting list for transplant surgery. However, on rare occasion, a donor, or the donor s family, will request that an organ be given to a designated recipient or designated group of recipients. The ethical acceptability of these so-called directed donations of organs from deceased donors is debated in the transplant literature.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This thesis considers the Kosovo Energy Corporation j.s.c (KEK) debt collection difficulties amounting to 350 million in receivables. This enduring issue has seriously affected KEK s financial status. With privatization pending, this will find KEK burdened with receivables mature over 10 years, hence negatively impact value. Addressing this problem will involve multidimensional efforts, arduous analysis and tremendous creativity. The average income in Kosovo stands at 249 [2]. The unemployment remains high. During 2008, unemployment rate was 47.5% [3]. In these economic circumstances, collecting debt presents a difficult challenge. The ultimate goal is to produce a win-win outcome that does not suppress economic objectives while also respecting legal, social and ethical values. It is my conclusion that this problem can be solved, after all: Whether you think you can or you cannot, you are probably right Henry Ford 60 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -This study takes its starting point in the exploitative situation that Ethiopian migrant domestic workers face when employed in the Middle East, both working and living in the employer s home without access to human rights or labour laws. In 2009, a new proclamation, based on the ILO Private Employment Agency Convention 181, was enacted in Ethiopia with the objective of further protecting the rights, safety and dignity of migrant workers by strengthening the mechanisms for monitoring and regulating the business of private recruiters. The implementation, the monitoring of private recruiters as well as the application of the proclamation in criminal court is examined. The law describes both public and private responsibility in terms of protection of Ethiopian workers abroad. It is argued that the capacity of licensed private employment agencies generally is too weak to fulfil the responsibility placed upon them and that this responsibility needs to be shared by other sectors of society. Finally, it is concluded that increased number of agencies under governmental supervision would benefit women employed abroad. 88 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -The book is unashamedly eclectic and its purpose entirely pedagogical. It reflects the author's sincerely held belief that if there is anything worth saying in economics then it should be possible to make it intelligible to students who have but a basic gronding in economic theory.It is conceded that there are dangers in this philosophy, not least that it precipitates the charge of superficiality,lack of the rigour and, on occasion, possible distortion of the true position of the participants in the debate.Nonetheless, the position taken here is that these risks are worth running especially if the outcome of the endeavour is to provoke the better student to pursue the subject at a more ambitious level. To this end, a relatively comprehensive bibliography is appended. I would like to express my thanks to Ms. Ecaterina Tomsa,Acquisition Editor, of LAP LAMBERT Academic Publishing GmbH & Co. KG, for first suggesting this venture. 68 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -There are approximately twenty thousand people living in Ballymun, a town land located four miles north of Dublin s city centre. Over the last eight years, the residents of Ballymun have experienced a period of great change. The 1960s witnessed the construction of a high rise housing estate was felt to be the answer to Dublin s growing housing problem. Poor planning and a lack of facilities resulted in this economically deprived area being seen as the last place people would want to live. Many Irish people would associate Ballymun with danger, drug addiction and poverty. While such economic and social problems are still present, Ballymun has changed greatly. The demolition of the high rise towers, the construction of a main street and plaza, new houses and low rise apartement blocks, together with an arts centre, a leisure centre and buildings for community use have dramatically changed the urban landscape of this area. Through an intense period of urban regeneration, a new Ballymun has been created. This thesis will address the changes which have occurred over the last eight years but will focus on the role of public consultation within the regenerative process. 48 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -South Africa is the only African country with an asylum system where persecution on the grounds of gender is clearly recognised in the Refugee Act of 1998. However, it is unclear whether South African asylum determination officers are aware of that and to what extent this influences their decision-making. Similarly, it is unclear whether asylum seekers in South Africa know that there is a possibility of applying for refugee status on this basis. The study seeks to explore plausible explanations surrounding the issue. By using existing literature and semi-structural interviews with both asylum claimants and DHA officials, I found out that the lack of gender sensitivity from the DHA officials, lack of awareness and the difficulty to talk about their experiences from the side of asylum claimants are central to the problem. 96 pp. Englisch.

It is also an enclave of overwhelming poverty, disease, chronic instability and prone to terrorist incursion. The establishment of a new combatant force (AFRICOM) for the region (GULF OF GUINEA) and Africa in general by the United States of America marks an important milestone in the evolution of relations between the U.S and the government of the Gulf region. Through AFRICOM, the United States Department of Defense will consolidate the efforts of other existing Commands and headquarters as it seek a more stable environment for political and economic growth in the Gulf of Guinea. In line with such goals, AFRICOM would be pioneering a bold method of military engagement focused on war prevention, interagency cooperation, and development rather than on traditional war fighting. It is in such view that this study is carried out to assess Nigeria's security interest in the Gulf of Guinea owing to her supposed leadership position in the region. 108 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Public Sector Reforms adopted in the 1990s obliged the state to roll back its ownership frontiers in public enterprises through sale of shares, equities and assets to the public. However,this shift raises fundamental questions on the extent to which the African state has the political will to ensure broad based ownership transfer processes. This question is particularly pertinent given that in most African countries, the state is yet to resolve the colonially inherited skewed ownership patterns.Global experiences in ownership transfers also point to disturbing cases of dilutions in indigen shareholding during and after ownership tranfers. In Zimbabwe while the issue of broad based ownership has since independence graced the national agenda, by 2000, a clear-cut ownership transfer policy and legislation was yet to emerge. Against this backdrop the book questions the extent to which ownership rolling back processes in state owned companies in Zimbabwe were sensitive to the fundamentals of broad based participation. Issues raised in this book should be useful to decision makers, policy practictioners, students of political science, development studies and public administration. 84 pp. Englisch.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -From Independence in 1980, Zimbabweans from different social strata have been interested in co-operatives as means of poverty eradication. There is a lot of controversy surrounding these organisations where on one extreme, they are hailed as a panacea for poverty, while on another they are viewed as futile, anachronistic relics of the socialist period (Mubaiwa,1989). Whether co-operatives are efficacious or not in curing the ills of poverty has been the subject of intense and often emotional debate. In Zimbabwe, this debate becomes particularly poignant now in the face of increased urban poverty, arising out of the well documented political-economic events and issues that have plagued the country over the past two decades. Zimbabwe has experienced a dramatic rise in the incidence of urban poverty over the past 20 years as result of various political and economic upheavals that the country has undergone. At this point it is important to define poverty, given that poverty is difficult to define and is fraught with political implications. The definition of poverty is a site of much contestation, depending on the definer s political perspective. 56 pp. Englisch.

This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -There is an ongoing debate among people as to whether the trial being made by the Ethiopian Government to provide housing for the poor through the program called the Integrated Housing Development Program is reaching the target, the urban poor, or not. This research tries to find out the factors that are responsible for the determination of affordability of these housing units. And, it is found out that there are some socio-economic factors that mainly determine affordability. As per the findings, internal factors like the household saving, type of occupation of the household head, availability of external source of finance, and finishing and related costs are found to be having the upper hand in determining affordability of these housing units. Though the research shows that these internal factors are stronger in determining affordability, the focus of the government is still tilted towards the external ones to make the housing units affordable to the urban poor. And, it is strongly recommended that both measures need to be effectively combined to make the housing units affordable to the target groups. 92 pp. Englisch.

This paper discusses whether cross-border insolvency can be a per se obstacle to international arbitration, and whether there are foreign insolvency laws that can neutralize pending arbitration proceedings. This paper emphasizes the importance of correctly characterizing issues arising in cross-border insolvency/arbitration. The relevance of correct characterization is illustrated by the Vivendi/Elektrim dispute, which led to conflicting decisions in England and Switzerland. This paper also analyzes whether foreign insolvency provisions limiting a tribunal's jurisdiction may be applied as mandatory rules. 56 pp. Englisch.
