Ausgehend von einer Publikation der russischen Zeitschrift 'Expert' vom Dezember 1996 werden die Gebietseinheiten (Regionen) der Rußländischen Föderation hinsichtlich ihrer Eignung als Investitionsstandorte bewertet. Dabei wird eine kurz-, mittel- und langfristige Sichtweise unterschieden. Es zeigt sich, daß einige Regionen (die Megazentren Moskau und St. Petersburg, das Gebiet Kaliningrad, die Region Krasnodar sowie die Republik Tatarstan) bei jeder Betrachtungsweise auf den ersten zehn Plätzen zu finden sind. Dabei wird eine beträchtliche Abhängigkeit der Bewertung vom Zeithorizont der Bewertung deutlich. (BIOst-Dok)
This book examines authoritarian practices in relation to humanitarian negotiations. Utilising a wide variety of perspectives and examining a range of contexts, the book considers how humanitarians assess and engage with authoritarian practices and negotiate access to populations in danger. Chapters provide insights at the macro, meso, and micro levels through case studies on the international and domestic legal and political framing of humanitarian contexts (Xinjiang, Afghanistan, Venezuela, Russia, and Syria), as well as the actual practice of negotiating with authoritarian regimes (Ethiopia). A theoretical grounding is provided through chapters elaborating on the ethics and trust-building dimensions of humanitarian negotiations, and an overview chapter provides a theoretical framework through which to analyse humanitarian negotiations against the backdrop of different types of authoritarian practices. This book provides a wide-ranging view which broadens the frame of reference when considering how humanitarians view and engage with authoritarian practices. The objective is to both put these contexts into conceptual order and provide a firm theoretical basis for understanding the politics of humanitarian negotiations in such difficult contexts. This book is useful for those studying international politics and humanitarian studies, as well as for practitioners seeking to better systematise their humanitarian negotiations.
The study was carried out in Ofa Woreda, Wolaita Zone with the main objective of assessing the factors affecting diffusion of Cassava root. Specifically, it was intended to assess the effect of upstream value chain, market information, infrastructure, extension service, credit service, and demographic factors on diffusion of cassava root in the study area. The study employed explanatory research design with mixed research approach of both qualitative and quantitative methods. Multistage sampling technique was used. The study was employed both primary and secondary sources of data and the data collected through questionnaire, key informant interview and focused group discussion. Data were cleared, coded, entered and analyzed using SPSS software version 21, while descriptive and inferential statistical techniques were employed. Descriptive statistics such as percentage, frequency, mean, and standared deviation were used to summarize the data collected through questionnaire. Furthermore, inferential statistics such as correlation and multiple Linear Regression analysis were used to identify determinants of honey market supply in the study area. In addition, the results of key informant and focus group discussion were used to triangulate the quantitative findings. The study found out that among different variables identified to determine the diffusion of cassava root, the regressions model analysis result revealed that total household size, upstream value chain, access to market information, access to infrastructure, access to extension service, and availability of credit service were the major factors that affect the quantity of cassava root supplied in the study area. The study recommended that Zonal and Woreda cooperative office, Woreda agricultural office and Woreda administration office should organize cassava root producers in a cooperatives, provide modern technologies and follow cassava them for their proper usage. Micro-finance institutions should address the availability of credit for cassava root farmers. The government should also facilitate appropriate infrastructure for cassava root producers.
La Administración Pública constituye el espacio en donde se materializan las políticas públicas propuestas en instituciones del régimen democrático. Las instituciones constituyen el mecanismo formal e informal por medio del cual se establece la forma de hacer las cosas, definiendo lo permitido y lo prohibido, además consolida los cambios orientados hacia un nuevo orden que sustituya al anterior y que permita la disminución de costos de transacción y haga más eficientes las tareas económicas. ; La Administración Pública constituye el espacio en donde se materializan las políticas públicas propuestas en instituciones del régimen democrático.
