Other written product issued by the General Accounting Office with an abstract that begins "GAO published a Personnel Appeals Board study that examined the median time to promotion and rates of promotion of GAO banded employees for the five year period 1991-1995. GAO noted that: (1) there were some disparities based on race, gender and age, but that the causes of these differences were not readily apparent from the statistics alone; and (2) the Board has recommended that GAO further investigate the disparities to determine whether additional steps need to be taken to ensure equal opportunity for its employees."
U radu je data klasifikacija jugoslovenskih ideologija u periodu 1904-1918. Kao izvori su upotrebljene novine u časopisi koji su širili jugoslovensku ideju u Srbiji, Hrvatskoj u Bosni i Hercegovini: Srpski književni glasnik, Slovenski jug, Bosanska vila u Hrvatska njiva. U studiji se primenjuje teorija etničkog takmičenja. Autor tvrdi da je etničko svojstvo i potencijal, kao struktura dugog trajanja, glavni uslov oblikovanja različitih vrsta jugoslovenskih ideologija. Drugi uslov formulisanja različitih vrsti ideologija jugoslovenstva je opšta ideološka usmerenost: konzervativna, liberalna, socijalno ili radikalno-demokratska. Konačno, treći uslov se nalazi u stvarnom ili poželjnom nivou jugoslovenske integracije. Autor nalazi da je srpska varijanta ideologije jugoslovenstva bila umnogome različita od hrvatske. Pod istim imenom krile su se vrlo različite stvari. Srpska varijanta jugoslovenske ideologije razmatrala je jugoslovensku ideju samo kao mogućnost stvaranja nezavisne i moćne jugoslovenske države, gde Srbija treba da igra ulogu jugoslovenskog Pijemonta isto kao i ulogu pobednika u etničkom takmičenju s drugim jugoslovenskim etničkim grupama. Sa druge strane, hrvatski intelektualci i političari usmereni prema nekoj vrsti jugoslovenske integracije razmatrali su jugoslovensku ideju samo u okviru Habzburške monarhije zato što je to bio jedini uslov hrvatske pobede u etničkom takmičenju sa Srbima i Slovencima. ; The paper deals with classification of Yugoslav ideologies in the period 1904-1918. Used sources are the newspapers which propagated Yugoslav idea in Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina: Srpski književni glasnik, Slovenski jug, Bosanska vila i Hrvatska njiva. The author applies the theory of ethnic competition in this study. He argues that ethnicity, as the structure of long duration, is the main determinant in formulating different kinds of Yugoslav ideologies. The second condition of formulating different kinds of Yugoslav ideologies is a general ideological orientation: conservative, liberal, social or radical democratic. Finally, the third condition is the thought of real or desirable level of Yugoslav integration. The author finds out that Serbian variant of Yugoslav ideology was very different of the Croatian one. Under the same name were hidden very different issues. The Serbian variant of Yugoslav ideology considered Yugoslav idea only as a possibility of the creation of an independent and powerful Yugoslav state, where Serbia should play the role of Yugoslav Piemont as well as the role of winner in the ethnic competition with other Yugoslav ethnic groups. On the other hand, Croatian intellectuals and politicians oriented toward some kind of Yugoslav integration considered Yugoslav idea only in the frame of the Habsburg Empire because it was the only condition for Croatian victory in the ethnic competition, with Serbs and Slovens.
The market transition in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union brings us back to essential issues that Marx and Weber addressed: the genesis of capitalism and the process of economic change. What is the transition and what does it involve - restructuring incentives, creating new laws, learning new culture, or creating new power structures? The answer partially depends on the particular transition (initial conditions, targets, actors' perceptions); but necessary general frameworks remain elusive, and current economic policies and analyses reveal that we understand little more about economic change than a century ago. Recent works on market transitions have furthered our understanding, but also tend to focus on narrow issues: the "success" or "failure" of transitions, elite circulation, financial institutions, networks, and privatization and property changes. These timely and useful contributions still do not orient us to a broader dynamic - that is, just what the transition is is left out. Is path dependent policies? Reorganization of financial systems or property control? The rise or collapse of political alliances and a power elite? It is these and more, together in one complex. If we are to understand the process of constructing capitalism, I suggest we look beyond policies and finance to the process of how actors try to understand their worlds, create meaning, and enforce this meaning.

Keeping In Touch: Eastern Airlines Retirees Association, number 85 (July-August 1995). ; The Eastern Airlines Collection, 1927-2008 (bulk 1965-2008), consists of news clippings, press releases, newsletters, annual reports, monthly reports, correspondence, memoranda, photographs, slides, an early scrapbook (or day book), artifacts (promotional items) and audiovisual materials. This collection mainly provides insight into publicity and outreach efforts at Eastern Airlines, but also its history, charitable work, and day-to-day operations. The materials were accumulated by Carolyn Lee Wills, who worked in the Public Relations Department of Eastern's Southern Regional Office from 1965 until 1987. ; Carolyn Lee Wills graduated from Georgia State University, where she studied journalism, history and speech. She also participated in many extra-curricular activities including Panhellenic Council, Delta Zeta Sorority, and yearbook. Before she began her work at Eastern Airlines, she traveled extensively throughout Europe, Asia, North and South America, Jamaica, the Bahamas, and Bermuda.; In 1965, Wills joined Eastern Airlines as a Representative of Women's Activities. In this role, she interpreted the company's program to women by working in the fields of fashion, radio, television, public relations, and promotions. In 1971, Wills became made Regional Manager of Public Relations. Eastern Airlines closed its Atlanta offices in November 1973, but found it difficult to cover their public relations needs in Atlanta from their headquarters in Miami. Four months after closing, Wills was re-hired by Eastern to manage the Southern Division covering Atlanta to Tokyo. While employed by Eastern Airlines, Wills served on many boards including American Women in Radio and Television, Georgia State University Alumni Association, and was a national representative of Delta Zeta Sorority. In 1966, she married attorney Charles H. Wills. The earliest incarnation of Eastern Airlines was Pitcairn Aviation, founded in 1927, which was the U.S. Postal Service contractor flying from New York to Atlanta. In 1930, the carrier was sold to North American Aviation owner Clement Keys and was renamed Eastern Air Transport. It soon added passenger routes and adopted the name Eastern Air Lines. Throughout the pre-World War II era, Eastern dominated passenger travel and air transport along the Atlantic coast, including the introduction of one-day service from New York to Miami in 1932. Famed pilot Eddie Rickenbacker bought the company in 1938 and was closely identified with it until his 1963 retirement. During the air travel boom of the 1950s and 1960s, Eastern Airlines grew into one of the ""Big Four"" United States carriers, enhancing its status as the lead air travel carrier on domestic east coast flights with the introduction of air shuttle service in 1961. Shuttle service was created as an alternative to bus routes and included hourly flights from Atlanta to Washington D.C., New York, and Boston. During this time, Eastern Airlines also expanded international service to Mexico, Bermuda, Puerto Rico, and Canada. Under the leadership of former astronaut Frank Borman (hired as an advisor in 1969, he became Chief Executive Officer in 1975), Eastern Airlines enjoyed continued successes in the industry until the enactment of the Airline Deregulation Act of 1978.; Beginning with Eastern's early U.S. Postal Service government contract, the company had relied upon the regulated and protective policies governing the airline industry. Without government protection, Eastern's profits began to make a downward turn that eventually culminated in the selling of the company to Texas Air International, headed by Frank Lorenzo. Following deregulation, Lorenzo was able to purchase multiple airlines including Continental, Frontier, New York Air, and Eastern. To cut costs in the midst of declining profits, Lorenzo asked Eastern's union employees to take massive pay cuts in wages and benefits. Union workers refused to accept Lorenzo's demands and opted to go on strike. By claiming bankruptcy in 1989, Lorenzo was able to hire non-union workers to fill the jobs of striking employees. Lorenzo took his demands a step further when he asked the machinists' union to take a pay cut, which resulted in another strike that dealt the final blow to any hope that Eastern Airlines would recover lost profits. In 1991, Eastern Airlines was permanently grounded. Eastern's main hubs in Atlanta and Miami were taken over by various competitors and its concourses in New York and Newark were demolished.
