Les transferts de fonds des migrants engendrent-ils un syndrome hollandais au Liban ? L'article répond à cette question en mobilisant un modèle théorique basé sur les fondamentaux du taux de change réel et en utilisant l'estimation d'un modèle vectoriel à correction d'erreur VECM. Plusieurs constats sont dressés. Les transferts de fonds apprécient le taux de change réel durant la période 1984-2016. De plus, par les méthodes des moindres carrés ordinaires (MCO) et des moments généralisés (MMG), il est montré que les transferts aboutissent à une expansion du secteur des biens non échangeables au détriment du secteur productif. Ainsi, en engendrant un effet de dépense et un effet d'orientation des ressources à court terme et à long terme, les transferts de fonds détériorent la compétitivité et favorisent l'existence d'un syndrome hollandais dans le cas libanais.

On February 4, 2021, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) delivered its judgment on the preliminary objections raised by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in Application of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (Qatar v. United Arab Emirates). It upheld by eleven votes to six the first preliminary objection raised by the UAE and found that it has no jurisdiction to entertain the application filed by Qatar. The case was referred to the Court under Article 22 of the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination (ICERD), and relates to measures taken on June 5, 2017 by the UAE, along with Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, and Egypt, to cut diplomatic ties with Qatar and impose a blockade, including expelling all Qatari residents and visitors.

El presente artículo esquematiza los resultados de investigación, teniendo como objetivo general determinar el papel de la jurisprudencia de la Corte Constitucional en el desarrollo del pluralismo jurídico y el estado multicultural de los pueblos indígenas, el cual se realizó con base en los métodos analíticos, hermenéutico, y descriptivo, planteándose como una investigación de carácter jurídico y cualitativo, con base en la búsqueda bibliográfica y jurisprudencial. Del análisis de 22 sentencias de la Corte Constitucional se pudo obtener como resultado el análisis crítico del papel reglamentario y proteccionista que tiene el alto tribunal, al garantizar derechos y principios a la comunidad indígena. Finalmente, como conclusión se pudo indicar que los grupos indígenas están salvaguardados por la jurisprudencia, pero que, respecto al legislador, posee vacíos de incertidumbre respecto a sus derechos territoriales y de autonomía.

AbstractEvidence on the relationship between government size and corruption is mixed, and might be misleading, as government size is usually measured by fiscal size. The core hypothesis in this research is that the type of government intervention in the economy – rather than the size of government – is a key explanatory factor for corruption. The empirical analysis disentangles the effects of the two main government tools for intervention: fiscal and regulatory. The main result is that fiscal burden does not present any significant relationship with corruption. In contrast, a consistent and significant positive association is found between regulatory burden and corruption. Furthermore, legal origins and democratic experience contribute to explaining differences in corruption. [Correction added on 22 April 2021, after first online publication: In the Abstract, the word 'quality' has been replaced with 'burden'.]

The present study aims to highlight the main occurrences of different material elements in Lucian Blaga's lyrical work, by focusing on quantitative and micro-stylistic approaches. The quantitative research was made with the help of a digital instrument, Sketch Engine, a relevant tool for research in corpus linguistics and computational stylistics. This study encapsulates the explicit occurences of 22 materials from Lucian Blaga's poems, categorized into three main groups: metallic materials (ferrous and non-ferrous), non-metallic materials (ceramic/telluric) and rocks and building materials. The analysed material elements are integrated in 317 micro-structures and contexts, the main aspect observed being the ratio between metaphorical and denotative regimes in which materials are included. Starting from distant reading, the article questions a possible cognitive dimension of Lucian Blaga's poems, which is based on the author's cultural and philosophical experience.

Zusammenfassung. Hintergrund: Ab 2018/2019 wurden drei S3-Leitlinien (LL) zur Behandlung von alkohol-, medikamenten- und tabakbezogenen Störungen entwickelt und verabschiedet. Neben dem fachlich korrekten Vorgehen bei der Entwicklung von LL sind die Erfassung und Bewertung möglicher konkurrierender Interessen (KI) der Teilnehmenden zentral für die Qualität der LL. Zielsetzung: Beschreibung der Methodik bei der Bearbeitung möglicher KI und der Ergebnisse. Methodik: Zu 11 Themenbereichen möglicher materieller und immaterieller KI von 217 Teilnehmenden wurden die Angaben mit einem vorgegebenen Fragebogen, teilweise vorgegebenen Kriterien, einem neu entwickelten Kodierungssystem für die Angaben zu möglichen KI sowie einem neu entwickelten System für Beteiligungseinschränkungen nach fachlichen Themenbereichen der LL ausgewertet. Ergebnisse: 69 von 217 Teilnehmenden (32 %) hatten keinen KI, 48 (22 %) einen KI mit geringer Relevanz (limitierte Leitungsfunktion), 86 (40 %) mit moderater (Stimmenthaltung), weitere 14 (6 %) mit hoher Relevanz (Beratungsausschluss). Durch das neue Instrument themenbezogener Mitwirkungsbegrenzungen konnten sich dennoch von den 148 Mitwirkenden mit einer Einschränkung weitere 60 % bis 90 % bei einzelnen Themen beteiligen. Schlussfolgerungen: Das Beurteilungssystem fand eine hohe Akzeptanz, bei nur etwa 5 % war eine zweite Überprüfung notwendig. Die statistischen Kennziffern unterscheiden sich erheblich zwischen verschiedenen LL, und erfordern methodenkritische Studien und bessere Instruktionen mit Beispielen, insbesondere zu immateriellen KI.

Time should be understood in relation to others, not as a private matter. Therefore time, including its use and experience, is subject to negotiations, power relations and inequality. This article utilises the concept of the household economy and the household money management systems model to explore couples' practices in relation to time. The research questions are: what time management systems can be identified, and how are couples differentiated? The study uses interview data from 22 heterosexual couples (44 individuals) interviewed in 2016 in different parts of Finland. The analysis identifies four types of time management system: (a) a female-managed system, (b) a male-managed system, (c) a pooling system, and (d) an independent management system. The study contributes to existing research on time and the family by identifying couples' time management systems and social aspects of time.

Seçimle oluşturulan tek Avrupa Birliği kurumu olan Avrupa Parlamentosu'nda en son seçimler 22-24 Mayıs 2019'da yapılmıştır. Brexit sürecinde yapılan seçimlerde; seçim öncesi gündemde Brexit tartışmaları, aşırı sağın güçlenmesi, göç sorunu, ekonomik sorunlar, üye devletlerin Birlik kurallarına aykırı tutumları ile çeşitli toplumsal hareketler öne çıkmıştır. Bu gelişmelerin Avrupa Parlamentosu'na nasıl yansıyacağı bütünleşmenin geleceği açısından 2019 seçimlerini önemli kılmaktadır. Çalışmada katılım boyutu, politika değişiklikleri ve ortak politika öncelikleri açısından 2019 seçimleri incelenmiş, oluşan tablo değişim süreci açısından değerlendirilmiştir. İlk defa katılım oranının arttığı bu seçimlerde, merkez sağ ve merkez sol çoğunluğunu kaybederken, politika tercihleri Liberaller, Yeşiller ve Aşırı sağa kaymış, Parlamentoda aşırı sağı temsil eden bir siyasi grup kurulmuştur. Brexit kararının ve genç nüfusun artan katılımdaki etkisi Avrupa Birliği'ne desteğin göstergesi olurken, İngiltere'nin 31 Ocak 2020'de Birlikten ayrılması Parlamentodaki dengeyi de değiştirmiştir.

O trabalho em questão fundamenta-se na tese de que a crise sanitário-humanitária imposta pela pandemia (Sars-cov-2, o novo coronavirus/COVID-19) emergiu como um gatilho detonador de uma nova fase da crise estrutural do capital, caracterizada pela confluência de diversas crises próprias das leis econômicas. Nesse sentido, acelerou processos de transformações que já se encontravam em curso, de tal forma a explicitar a disputa pelos mercados futuros, principalmente, no âmbito da economia digital, todavia, presente em uma multiplicidade de mercados tradicionais, tais como o energético, visto que os mercados são estruturados em relações de interdependência. Assim, a crise abriu um novo ciclo de acumulação do capital que tendencialmente caminhará para o redesenho das relações internacionais, bem como da relação entre capital-imperialismo e periferia.

The decisions taken by social workers in the field of child protection are influenced not only by factors related to the child and his/her life contex but also by organizational-contextual fac-tors of the social service and personal factors of the professionals (Baumann et al., 2011; Fluke et al., 2014; Benbenishity et al., 2015). The present research wanted to investigate how the organizational and professional variables affect the decisions of social workers in the child protection services in the area of the Veneto Region. 3 focus group were conducted, involving 22 social workers working in the protection services of 3 large municipalities in the Veneto Region were interviewed. The results highlight the presence of plural organizational structures and the lack of shared good practices with a shift in the decision axis towards the discretion of individual social worker.

Esta investigación busca determinar la influencia de los estilos de liderazgo transaccional y transformacional en el comportamiento innovador. La investigación siguió un enfoque metodológico cuantitativo, de corte transversal, de alcance correlacional explicativo y con diseño no experimental. Se empleó una muestra de 386 cadetes de la Escuela Militar de Chorrillos Coronel Francisco Bolognesi (Perú). Los resultados se evaluaron mediante el modelamiento de ecuaciones estructurales utilizando mínimos cuadrados parciales. Se encontró que existe una influencia de los dos estilos de liderazgo estudiados sobre el comportamiento innovador de los cadetes. De acuerdo con la varianza explicada, el liderazgo transaccional explicaría el 22 % y el liderazgo transformacional, el 31 % de la variabilidad del comportamiento innovador. Esta investigación contribuye a comprender esta relación entre liderazgo y comportamiento innovador en el ámbito militar.

The findings revealed that labor market considerations, financial/salary rewards, and professional training had no significant impact on accounting students' decision to become accountants, whereas the work environment had a significant impact. accounting in order to pursue a career as an accountant.

Das Zweckdenken ist dem Verwaltungsrecht seit jeher vertraut. Ausgangspunkt der Untersuchung von Katharina Schober ist daher die historische Entwicklung der Verwendung von Zwecken im Verwaltungsrecht. Sie zeigt, dass eine Zweckorientierung im Recht unausweichlich ist, wenn man nicht bei einem vordergründigen Wortlautverständnis stehen bleiben will. Durch ihre Subjektivität, Vielschichtigkeit und schwere Fassbarkeit stellen Zwecke jedoch zugleich einen Unsicherheitsfaktor dar, der die Gesetzesbindung von Verwaltung und Rechtsprechung lockert. Aufgrund der zunehmenden Finalisierung des Verwaltungsrechts in den letzten Jahrzehnten scheint das Problem der Vagheit von Zwecken heute drängender zu sein als früher. Ein Lösungsansatz, auf den der Gesetzgeber in neuerer Zeit immer häufiger zurückgreift, stellen die sogenannten Leitvorschriften dar, mit denen der Gesetzgeber die von ihm verfolgten Zwecke in einem der ersten Paragraphen des Gesetzes näher konkretisieren kann.Wie Katharina Schober in einer übergreifenden empirisch fundierten Analyse des Umgangs von Gesetzgebung, Rechtsprechung und Literatur mit 22 Leitvorschriften in Umweltrechtsgesetzen zeigt, bleibt diese Konkretisierung in der Praxis jedoch aus. Den untersuchten Leitvorschriften mangelt es insbesondere an hinreichender Klarheit. Ferner fehlt es nicht selten an einer Kongruenz der Leitvorschrift mit dem nachgestellten Gesetz. Eine stärkere Bindung von Verwaltung und Rechtsprechung an die gesetzgeberischen Grundentscheidungen vermögen die geltenden Leitvorschriften somit nicht zu gewährleisten. Dies zeigt sich auch darin, dass Rechtsprechung und Literatur den umweltrechtlichen Leitvorschriften keine große praktische Bedeutung beimessen. Die Wirkung der Leitvorschriften ist somit weniger eine tatsächliche als eine symbolische.

The Escazú Agreement, the first environmental treaty to order that signatory States render available all information on the projects which may have an environmental impact, guarantee that citizens participate in decisional processes and adopt measures to protect defenders of indigenous environments and peoples, entered into force on 22 April 2021. Building on these premises, the paper reports some data with the aim of briefly tracing the framework in which environmental activists work. These, together with indigenous peoples, oppose the extractivist development model adopted by the region's government in the last twenty years, which has had – and still has – a significant impact on the environment, has increased social conflicts, and triggered a violence spiral against environmentalists and some indigenous communities, thus transforming Latin America into the most dangerous place for those who protect the environment.
