This study was concerned with the assessment and analysis of legal information needs of the major administrators in the public higher education system of the District of Columbia. The study further sought to provide a model Request for Proposal (RFP) with a performance specification suitable for inclusion in a public contract which ultimately would result in a study and handbook of the identified legal aspects. The administrators' needs and desires for legal information were assessed through a questionnaire survey. The questionnaire was divided into three section emphasizing: a. What information was generally known. b. What additional information was needed. c. What information was desired. Results of the survey indicated that there was a generally low awareness of the more popular aspects of college and university law. However, the administrators appeared to be generally aware of the specific legal aspects pertaining to the instruction or classroom activity. Most of the administrators felt that they were not equipped with sufficient legal information to make decisions on matters with legal implication that could withstand a challenge in court. Constitutional rights, employment contracting, fiscal administration, and policy conflicts were viewed as the most frequent problem areas, while accreditation and tenure problems were viewed as the least frequent. The survey also resulted in a priority listing of legal topics for which additional information was desired. The survey results were used as a basis for developing a draft outline of legal information topics and sub-topics for inclusion in a study and handbook. A panel of experts in higher education administration and law was effective in producing a final qualified outline. Using the final topic outline, a draft model RFP, containing a performance specification, was designed. A second panel, comprised of experts in contracting, reviewed, modified and validated the model RFP as being usable to actually obtain the required services through a public contract, to conduct a study and produce a handbook with emphasis upon the District of Columbia public higher education system. It was concluded that: a. Administrators of the public colleges in the District of Columbia do want and need additional legal information. b. Administrators of the public colleges in the District of Columbia can specifically identify their needs and desires for legal information. c. Expressed or identified legal information needs can be converted into a public contract performance specification. Key recommendations for further study included the development of objective evaluation criteria applicable to performance contracts and the actualization of the study results by the appropriate offices of the District of Columbia Government. ; Ed.

The purpose of this study was to compare the sources of revenues received by Historically Black Colleges to the sources of revenues received by predominantly white colleges during the 1970s. More specifically, seventy-six HBC were paired with seventy-six predominantly white colleges, and the basis of control (public or private), Carnegie classification, size, and geographic location, were arranged into two groups. Public comprehensive colleges, both black and white, were identified as group 1. Private liberal arts colleges, both black and white, were identified as Group 2. The sources of revenues for these two groups were analyzed to determine how sources of revenues compared between black and white colleges, within groups, fiscal years 1971 through 1979. The sources of revenues were (a) tuition and fees, (b) federal government revenues, (c) state and local government revenues, (d) private gifts, grants and contacts, (e) endowment, (f) other sources of revenues, and (g) total revenues. Fourteen null hypotheses were formulated to determine if statistically significant differences existed between black and white colleges, within each group, for each of the seven sources of revenues. Data were obtained from the Higher Education General Information Surveys of the National Center for Education Statistics. The MANOVA procedures were used to analyze the data and the .05 level of significance was required to reject the hypotheses. Analysis of the data for black and white public comprehensive colleges showed: 1. There was not a statistically significant difference between black and white public comprehensive colleges for revenues received through the sources of tuition and fees; private gifts, grants and contracts; endowment; and other sources of revenues. 2. There was a statistically significant difference between black and white public comprehensive colleges for revenues received through the sources of federal government revenues, state and local government revenues, and total revenues. Analysis of the data for black and white private liberal arts colleges showed: 1. There was not a statistically significant difference between black and white private liberal arts colleges for revenues received through the sources of endowment and other sources of revenues. 2. There was a statistically significant difference between black and white private liberal arts colleges for revenues received through the sources of tuition and fees; federal government revenues; state and local revenues; private gifts, grants and contracts; and total revenues. The MANOVA procedures were also used to analyze the sources of revenues for public comprehensive colleges with black land grant institutions removed. Chapter five listed some of the past operational practices of historically black colleges which may have contributed to the higher cost of operation where revenues are calculated on a per student basis. ; Ed.

The Revolutionary Government of the Armed Forces of Peru under the leadership of General Juan Velasco Alvarado assumed the government of Peru on October 3, 1968. One reason given for the assumption of power was that Peruvian interests had been severely damaged in the Act of Talara of August 13, 1968. After nullifying the Act of Talara, the Government expropriated the International Petroleum Company (IPC) refinery in Talara. As revealed in 1974 by the publication of the Revolutionary Government's plan of strategy, "Plan Inca," the Peruvian military had a clear idea of what it believed the situation of the Peruvian petroleum industry was on October 3, 1968, what its objective was regarding that industry, and what actions it needed to take in furtherance of that objective. The Revolutionary Government's plans to end the petroleum concession system were subsequently placed into law by Decree Law No. 17440, which states that petroleum deposits and deposits of analogous hydrocarbons are the property of the State and cannot be alienated or relinquished. The petroleum industry and marketing of petroleum and analogous hydrocarbons and derivatives, as well as basic petrochemicals, are of national interest, public utility, and indispensable for the integral security ("seguridad integral") of the State. As of February 20, 1969, the effective date of Decree Law No.17440, the petroleum concession system was abolished, although all acquired rights were to be respected. Under the Decree Law, the petroleum industry and all marketing of petroleum and analogous hydrocarbons is to be carried out primarily by the State. Private companies can bid for the rights to carry out prospecting, exploration, exploitation, and manufacturing under a contract system, in accordance with the State's interests, as expressed through the Ministry of Energy and Mines or the state oil company, Empresa Petrolera Fiscal (EPF).

Why the American recovery of the years 1983 and 1984 did not produce recovery in Europe ? Why unemployment on this side of the Ocean has continued rising to reach in 1985 levels that have not been seen since the Great Depression ? Why finally the prospect of recovery which follows the fall of the dollar and the price of oil is so mediocre ? Conventional macroeconomic theory does not allow to answer those questions. The reasons could be that the variations of exchange rates and real rates of interest were in the eighties so important that they had no equivalent since world war two. The article provides a reconstruction of open macroeconomics to cope with the unusual features of recent developments. It is then possible to explain how and why the shifts in the beginning of the eighties in the US monetary-fiscal stance have operated to contract employment in Europe. This result comes from the consideration of the many supply side transmission mechanisms, heretofore unnoticed, that must have been actuated by the american policy mix mainly through the channel of the real interest rates but also through the unprecedent real depreciation of European currencies. The remaining part of the rise of unemployment in Europe is explained by a reexamination of Europe's own policies. ; Pourquoi la reprise américaine des années 1983 et 1984 n'a t-elle pas entraîné celle de l'Europe ? Pourquoi le chômage de ce côté-ci de l'Atlantique a-t-il continué de croître pour atteindre en 1985 son niveau le plus élevé depuis la « grande depression » ? Pourquoi enfin les perspectives de la reprise qui s'annonce à la suite du « contre-choc » pétrolier sont-elles si médiocres ? La théorie économique dominante ne permet pas vraiment de répondre à ces questions. La raison en est que les amples mouvements de change et de taux d'intérêt qui sont survenus au cours des années quatre-vingt, qui n'ont jamais eu d'équivalents, n'ont pas été suffisamment pris en compte.

La raison en est que les amples mouvements de change et de taux d'intérêt qui sont survenus au cours des années quatre-vingt, qui n'ont jamais eu d'équivalents, n'ont pas été suffisamment pris en compte. Une reconstruction de l'analyse macroéconomique des économies ouvertes permet d'apprécier le caractère singulier des évolutions récentes. On peut alors comprendre pourquoi et comment le changement de politique économique aux Etats-Unis intervenu au début de la présente décennie a affecté défavorablement l'emploi en Europe et ailleurs. L'explication résulte des effets d'offre, qui, au-delà des effets de demande, ont été suscités par la dépréciation réelle des monnaies européennes et la hausse sans précédent des taux d'intérêt réels. Trois éléments sont essentiels à l'explication : le jeu des marges des entreprises sur des marchés imparfaits ; le comportement des salaires, et les effets sur les coûts et sur les prix relatifs du taux d'intérêt. C'est ainsi que l'on peut effectivement constater que les comportements de détermination des marges des entreprises dépendent des évolutions du taux de change et du taux d'intérêt réel, que l'indexation des salaires accroît le caractère récessif des chocs d'offre et que la hausse des taux d'intérêt affecte défavorablement la demande de facteurs de production et le prix relatif des biens d'investissement. Les perturbations dues au changement de politique économique aux Etats-Unis conduisent alors en Europe à une augmentation du prix d'offre de la production et modifient ainsi profondément les termes de l'arbitrage politique entre inflation et chômage. A ces effets récessifs s'est ajouté celui de l'inversion de la hiérarchie des objectifs de la politique économique en Europe.
