The document examines Chinese-African relations from 1993 to 2010, focusing on the market-based policies and impacts. It analyzes China's model of development in Africa, identifying both benefits like foreign direct investment, infrastructure development, and economic growth, as well as threats such as discouraging local competition and lack of transparency in agreements. Future research is proposed on perceptions of Chinese investment in Nigeria during this period of heavy investment in Africa.

Carl Emmerson: The outlook for NHS funding to 2021/22Nuffield Trust
This document summarizes projections for NHS funding in England over the next decade based on analysis by Carl Emmerson and Rowena Crawford. It finds that the planned 4-year freeze in NHS funding from 2010-2015 would be the tightest period in the last 50 years. Public service spending growth is projected to average 1.1% annually from 2015-2022, or just 0.4% if economic conditions worsen. Maintaining NHS spending in line with national income growth would not keep up with costs of an aging population, requiring increased NHS productivity to close the gap between funding and demand pressures.
Chinese investment in Africa offers opportunities but also challenges. There are three main types of Chinese companies investing in Africa - state-owned enterprises, non-state owned corporations, and private businesses. State-owned enterprises pursue China's interests above profits and employ mostly Chinese workers. Non-state owned corporations focus more on profits but also consider China's interests, employing more local workers. Private businesses prioritize profits and have small, locally employed workforces. However, Chinese companies face political instability, safety and security issues, cultural barriers, and financial risks in operating in Africa. Despite challenges, Chinese investment in Africa is expected to continue growing as non-state actors and private businesses increase their presence.
China's energy diplomacy aims to secure foreign oil and gas assets and transit routes to meet China's growing energy needs. It uses a combination of diplomatic, military, and economic tools with different countries. In the Middle East, China provides diplomatic and military support to Iran and Sudan in exchange for oil access. In Africa, China offers infrastructure development in exchange for oil exploration rights. China also imports oil from Russia, Kazakhstan, Venezuela, and is increasingly looking to Canada's oil sands reserves. It aims to diversify energy sources and reduce reliance on Malacca Strait transit routes by building relationships and infrastructure with countries like Myanmar.
China has provided extensive economic cooperation and aid to African countries, becoming a major strategic partner on the continent. This assistance has helped develop infrastructure but also sparked concerns about working conditions and environmental/safety standards. While China's involvement is welcomed for its development experience and financial support, some Western countries worry it could enable human rights issues and undermine democracy. However, China's aid and loans to Africa are not as large as commonly believed, and it argues its model of investment, trade, and technology transfer can help drive development, as it did for China.
Chinese investment in Spain topped 600 million euros in 2014, according to an ESADE study.
According to this report, 93.8% of Chinese direct investment in Spain since 2000, some €1.662 billion, occurred in the 2012-2014 period. Of that amount, €610 million was invested in 2014, 49% more than in 2013. Moreover, by the end of the year, total investment in 2015 could be even higher, as a result of various major transactions recorded over the last six months in the real estate/hotel and agribusiness industries.
This document summarizes China's increasing engagement in Nigeria's oil industry. It discusses China's growing need for oil to fuel its economic growth and its "Oil for Infrastructure" policy of providing development projects in exchange for oil contracts. While this has brought some benefits like new infrastructure, there are also concerns that China is exploiting Nigeria's oil and not supporting local businesses enough. The relationship is complex, with both opportunities and challenges around ensuring sustainable growth and maximizing long-term benefits for Nigerian citizens.
Influence of Foreign Direct Investment on the developement of China - Marta M...Marta Michalska
This document appears to be a student's bachelor's thesis on the influence of foreign direct investment (FDI) on the development of China. It includes the student's identifying information, thesis title, supervisor signatures, table of contents, and introduction. The introduction provides background on China's economic growth in recent decades and states that the main hypothesis is that FDI has been a main source of China's success and influenced its economic growth and development. It also summarizes that the thesis will examine FDI definitions, flows into and out of China, effects on the Chinese economy, and future economic forecasts for China.

How Race, Age and Gender Shape Attitudes Towards Mental HealthThinkNow
Mental health has been in the news quite a bit lately. Dozens of U.S. states are currently suing Meta for contributing to the youth mental health crisis by inserting addictive features into their products, while the U.S. Surgeon General is touring the nation to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The country has endured periods of low national morale, such as in the 1970s when high inflation and the energy crisis worsened public sentiment following the Vietnam War. The current mood, however, feels different. Gallup recently reported that national mental health is at an all-time low, with few bright spots to lift spirits.
To better understand how Americans are feeling and their attitudes towards mental health in general, ThinkNow conducted a nationally representative quantitative survey of 1,500 respondents and found some interesting differences among ethnic, age and gender groups.
Technology
For example, 52% agree that technology and social media have a negative impact on mental health, but when broken out by race, 61% of Whites felt technology had a negative effect, and only 48% of Hispanics thought it did.
While technology has helped us keep in touch with friends and family in faraway places, it appears to have degraded our ability to connect in person. Staying connected online is a double-edged sword since the same news feed that brings us pictures of the grandkids and fluffy kittens also feeds us news about the wars in Israel and Ukraine, the dysfunction in Washington, the latest mass shooting and the climate crisis.
Hispanics may have a built-in defense against the isolation technology breeds, owing to their large, multigenerational households, strong social support systems, and tendency to use social media to stay connected with relatives abroad.
Age and Gender
When asked how individuals rate their mental health, men rate it higher than women by 11 percentage points, and Baby Boomers rank it highest at 83%, saying it’s good or excellent vs. 57% of Gen Z saying the same.
Gen Z spends the most amount of time on social media, so the notion that social media negatively affects mental health appears to be correlated. Unfortunately, Gen Z is also the generation that’s least comfortable discussing mental health concerns with healthcare professionals. Only 40% of them state they’re comfortable discussing their issues with a professional compared to 60% of Millennials and 65% of Boomers.
Race Affects Attitudes
As seen in previous research conducted by ThinkNow, Asian Americans lag other groups when it comes to awareness of mental health issues. Twenty-four percent of Asian Americans believe that having a mental health issue is a sign of weakness compared to the 16% average for all groups. Asians are also considerably less likely to be aware of mental health services in their communities (42% vs. 55%) and most likely to seek out information on social media (51% vs. 35%).
AI Trends in Creative Operations 2024 by Artwork Flow.pdfmarketingartwork
Creative operations teams expect increased AI use in 2024. Currently, over half of tasks are not AI-enabled, but this is expected to decrease in the coming year. ChatGPT is the most popular AI tool currently. Business leaders are more actively exploring AI benefits than individual contributors. Most respondents do not believe AI will impact workforce size in 2024. However, some inhibitions still exist around AI accuracy and lack of understanding. Creatives primarily want to use AI to save time on mundane tasks and boost productivity.
Organizational culture includes values, norms, systems, symbols, language, assumptions, beliefs, and habits that influence employee behaviors and how people interpret those behaviors. It is important because culture can help or hinder a company's success. Some key aspects of Netflix's culture that help it achieve results include hiring smartly so every position has stars, focusing on attitude over just aptitude, and having a strict policy against peacocks, whiners, and jerks.

How to Prepare For a Successful Job Search for 2024Albert Qian
The document provides guidance on preparing a job search for 2024. It discusses the state of the job market, focusing on growth in AI and healthcare but also continued layoffs.

Google's Just Not That Into You: Understanding Core Updates & Search IntentLily Ray
1. Core updates from Google periodically change how its algorithms assess and rank websites and pages. This can impact rankings through shifts in user intent, site quality issues being caught up to, world events influencing queries, and overhauls to search like the E-A-T framework.
2. There are many possible user intents beyond just transactional, navigational and informational. Identifying intent shifts is important during core updates. Sites may need to optimize for new intents through different content types and sections.
3. Responding effectively to core updates requires analyzing "before and after" data to understand changes, identifying new intents or page types, and ensuring content matches appropriate intents across video, images, knowledge graphs and more.
