The document discusses the disconnect between policy and research in rural areas. It outlines that there has been a denial of the role of broad community development in rural areas due to a shift away from investments. There is also a disconnect between helpful policy development and the realities of rural places. However, access to policy and research has been built up slowly through personal and information sharing networks. There is often a lag as well, as it takes time for research insights to be implemented in new policies that address issues important to rural communities such as resource management and economic development.

The document analyzes the distribution of creative workers across different geographic areas in the United States and Canada. It finds that distributions vary between large regions and small, rural regions. In general, larger regions have a higher share of creative workers. Some university towns and specific rural areas with medical, education, or law concentrations also have disproportionately high shares of creative workers. When using a gravity model to measure proximity to other creative workers, total creative workforce counts were positively correlated but creative worker shares were not. Region or market size was found to be consistently correlated with creative worker levels.Christine burton report on agm panel discussion
Christine burton report on agm panel discussionCanadian Rural Research Network / Réseau canadien de recherche rurale
The panel discussion focused on rural research needs from a federal perspective. Key points included the need for more localized data analysis and research to better support tailored rural policies and programs. A systems approach was advocated to understand communities holistically by examining interrelationships between various economic, social and environmental factors. Finally, issue-focused research on topics like infrastructure, economic transitions, and demographics was seen as important to inform rural policies and address challenges faced on the ground.P24 abstract - fast s
Rural attitudes towards renewable energy technologies were surveyed in two eastern Ontario municipalities. A mail survey received 164 responses with an 89% support for pursuing alternative energy sources, primarily due to concerns over rising energy costs and wanting to use local resources. Support was highest for solar technologies at 87% and lowest for wind turbines at 60% and new hydroelectric dams at 58%. Focus groups found little evidence of NIMBY views among permanent residents, though seasonal residents may have different opinions. Favorable initial attitudes towards renewable energy can be strengthened through local demonstration projects and citizen involvement in sharing information.
Water Conserving Benefits of Trees
This document provides information about selecting and caring for trees in a waterwise garden. It discusses choosing trees based on landscape needs, considering their mature size and growth habit. Site selection is important, considering how the area will be used at different times of day and year. Proper tree care includes assessing water needs based on characteristics like hardiness and soil requirements. Overall trees offer aesthetic and practical benefits like reducing heat and evaporation, but require planning to use water resources prudently.

Political communication in the age of austerity
This document discusses political communication challenges in the age of austerity. It notes that austerity reduces government spending and debts, restricting politicians' ability to promise tax cuts or spending. This limits democratic choice and can undermine institutional legitimacy if people reject austerity measures. The document explores how politicians may emphasize crisis rhetoric or blame others rather than tax and spending policies. It also questions how political parties can maintain legitimacy and position themselves amid new communication challenges in this fiscal environment.
Burntwood lecture
The document discusses "wicked problems", which are complex social or environmental issues with many interrelated factors and no clear solutions, such as climate change. It describes how proposed solutions to wicked problems often create new issues and involve value conflicts. The author argues that traditional approaches trying to "tame" wicked problems through hierarchical control, markets, or increased participation often fail or make the problems worse. Instead, "clumsy solutions" that incorporate multiple perspectives in an informal, ongoing process may be better at addressing interconnected wicked problems.

Slides for presentation by Marc Lavoie of University of Ottawa at a seminar held at University of Missouri Kansas City. 3/21/14.
W2L3_Lecture 6-Strategies of economic development and growth-I (1).pdf
This document discusses various economic growth models. It begins by recapping key concepts from the previous lecture, such as historical growth rates and Kuznets' characteristics of modern economic growth. It then outlines several classical and neoclassical growth models, including the Harrod-Domar model and Solow growth model. Several trends in development thinking are also summarized, such as development as economic growth, modernization, and structural change. The document concludes by discussing balanced growth theory and key aspects of the Harrod-Domar and Solow growth models.
BEM 1006- Unit -1:Topic-1(Introduction to Macro Economics)
This document provides an introduction to macroeconomics. It defines macroeconomics as the study of the structure and performance of national economies and the policies that governments use to affect economic performance. The key differences between microeconomics and macroeconomics are outlined, with microeconomics focusing on individual units and macroeconomics looking at entire economies and economic aggregates. Aggregate supply and demand curves are introduced as tools to analyze inflation, recession, and other macroeconomic concepts at an economy-wide level. The history and development of macroeconomics as a field of study since The General Theory is also briefly discussed.
Lecture # 2 (23.01.2017) @ ibt macro goals
This document provides an introduction to macroeconomics, including its key topics and goals. It discusses that macroeconomics studies aggregate economic measures of an economy, compared to microeconomics which focuses on individual agents. The main macroeconomic goals covered are low unemployment, price stability, and economic growth. These goals can sometimes complement each other, such as low unemployment and high growth, but can also conflict, such as low unemployment and low inflation. It also outlines some of the key principles of economics, including scarcity, rational self-interest, opportunity costs, and that decisions are made at the margin.

The document also outlines several key principles of economics, including scarcity, rational self-interest, opportunity costs, and decisions made at the margin. It provides graphs about unemployment rates in the U.S. over time and examples of how these principles apply.
TUL 560-10-1 Global Economic Systems
This document discusses different global economic systems and theories, including:
1. Market capitalism, which relies on decentralized decision-making and private property rights.
2. Marxist socialism, which calls for socially owned resources and centralized economic planning.
3. Most modern economies have transitioned to "mixed economies" that incorporate elements of both capitalism and socialism, with significant government intervention and redistribution.
4. There is no consensus on the ideal economic system, but discussions center around issues like property rights, incentives, efficiency, equality, and transitioning former socialist countries to market economies.

The document summarizes the major concepts and theories in post-war international development over seven decades from the 1950s to present. It outlines six eras: modernity in the 1950s focused on growth models; critique in the 1960s as dependency theory emerged; hope in the 1970s; disillusionment with structural adjustment in the late 1970s-1980s; a new dawn in the post-1989 period; and an ongoing beginning from 2000 onward with new actors like BRICS countries and philanthropists playing larger roles. The document analyzes the ideas and realities of different development approaches over time from Rostow to NGOization to show how development theory and practice has evolved and become more complex.
PS 186 outline slide show_1 (1).ppt
This document provides an introduction to concepts in international political economy. It discusses key issues like actor behavior, system governance and globalization. It also outlines different analytical perspectives including liberalism, realism and structuralism. It reviews international economic history in the 19th century, interwar period and postwar era. Specific topics covered include international trade, money and finance, economic development, the environment and energy. The document examines issues around governance of the global economic system and prospects for the future.
Global crises and economic implications
The document summarizes a lecture on understanding the global crises and their implications for economics. It outlines the impacts of the crises such as malnutrition, food riots, and child poverty. It examines various views on the causes including instrumental, structural, moral, and ontological perspectives. It discusses economic theories from mainstream and heterodox schools. It argues responses have missed elements like complexity, learning, and transitions. The conclusions call for a more inclusive economic-ecological theory that accounts for physical limits and innovation within complex, dynamic relationships between nature and humans.
Introduction to macroeconomics
This document provides an introduction to macroeconomics. It defines macroeconomics as the study of factors that determine aggregate production, employment, prices and their changes over time in an economy. Key aspects covered include the classical and Keynesian views of macroeconomics, macroeconomic variables, models and approaches used in analysis. Important macroeconomic issues discussed are achieving economic growth, preventing business cycles, controlling inflation, unemployment, budget deficits, and managing international economic issues.
DID USP Lecture 5.ppt
Neoliberalism emerged in the late 20th century as a response to Keynesian economics and the stagflation of the 1970s. It advocated for reducing state involvement in markets and increasing privatization, deregulation, and trade liberalization. While it led to some economic growth, it also increased inequality and failed to significantly reduce poverty or strengthen state capacity in many places. The 2008 financial crisis undermined confidence in neoliberal policies, though market-oriented reforms still influence development approaches today.
Evolution of Macroeconomics
This document provides an overview of a presentation on macroeconomics. It includes:
1. The names and roll numbers of the group members giving the presentation.
2. The topics to be discussed, including an introduction to macroeconomics, its objectives and basics, its development over time, applications, future, and limitations.
3. An introduction defining microeconomics as focused on individual actors, and macroeconomics as dealing with whole economy performance, structure, and behavior.

On Ideas and Economic Policy: A Survey of MENA Economists
This document provides an overview of economic thought and policymaking in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region based on a survey of economists. It discusses key topics like the impact of ideas on policy formulation, different schools of economic thought, the main tasks of economic policymakers, and examples of "bad ideas" that led to economic catastrophes. The survey findings suggest that while economists from different schools disagree on theoretical and empirical questions, economic policy is shaped both by prevailing ideas and real-world conditions.

Ian Gough: Heat, greed and human need. Defining necessities for sustainable and equitable wellbeing. Kela lecture 25.10.2017.Intergenerational Equity and Social Discount Rates.pptx
This document summarizes the history and ongoing debate around intergenerational equity and social discount rates. It discusses key developments in the field including Bentham and Sidgwick in the late 18th century establishing the foundations, to more recent contributions from Stern, Nordhaus, and Weitzman regarding appropriate discount rates. The document also outlines some of the ongoing tensions between ethicists who argue for very low discount rates, versus positivists who argue rates should be based on empirical evidence and markets. It concludes by noting declining discount rates may now be gaining acceptance, but uncertainty remains and the private sector continues impacted only by regulation.
Robin Murray Methods And Tools July 2009
This document discusses 5 propositions about the social economy and the global economic crisis:
1. The current crisis marks a transition from the 20th century model of mass production to the 21st century model of a distributed digital economy.
2. Strong social and technological trends are providing the basis for expansion of the social economy, including addressing intractable problems, expressive culture, and the digital economy reconfiguring production.
3. The social economy can become an innovative driver of economic transformation if conditions are transformed for the state, grant economy, market, and households.
4. Crisis requires differentiated counter-cyclical policies focused on investment, innovation, and regulatory changes to create conditions for social innovation
Ch. 21 Section 3 Notes
1. The Industrial Revolution inspired new economic ideas like capitalism, laissez-faire economics, and entrepreneurship. Competing views like socialism arose in response to the harsh conditions of industrialization.
2. The rise of industry separated work life from home life and changed the roles of women in society. It also increased wealth, living standards, and control over other economies for some countries.
3. Industrialization had wide-ranging effects on society like changes to art, politics, and transportation, as well as increased leisure time and education levels for families. However, it also led to overcrowded and polluted cities with rapid population growth.
Economics
Milton Friedman was a prominent 20th century American economist known for his research on monetary policy and criticism of Keynesian economic theory. Some of his most influential ideas included:
1) His interpretation of the "quantity theory of money" which held that increases in the money supply beyond real economic growth would lead solely to price inflation, not increased output.
2) His advocacy for monetarism and the idea that central banks should target low and stable inflation through steady monetary growth.
3) His empirical research challenging ideas like the Phillips Curve and arguments that unemployment and inflation were inversely related.

This document presents a framework for quantitatively assessing economic linkages between agriculture and rural communities. It finds that farm household labor supply to communities is generally greater than labor demand from farm businesses. The framework uses spatial buffers to measure flows of labor earnings and other economic activity between farms and local economies. While improving data, this approach provides insights into different types of rural communities based on the strength and direction of their agriculture-rural linkages.Cs4 p11 olfert triage at the periphery

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
