In his Budget Statement this year the Chancellor restated his medium-term financial strategy (MTFS) and in particular his objectives for the public sector borrowing requirement (PSBR). He said, ‘Since its inception in 1980 the MTFS has indicated a steadily declining path for the PSBR expressed as a percentage of GDP. We have now reached what I judge to be its appropriate destination: a PSBR of 1 per cent of GDP. My aim will be to keep it there over the years ahead. This note considers the implications of that scale of borrowing for the balance sheet position of the public sector. We are able to do this with more confidence thanks to recent publication by the CSO of new figures for the balance sheet positions of all sectors of the economy up to the end of 1985. Prior to that publication, the latest figures available for the overall balance sheet position of the public sector had referred to 1975. The new data modify the picture of recent trends, without changing their character fundamentally.

Abstract In all its diversity, Lutheran ethics places a pronounced emphasis on the universal aspects of theological ethics. This article argues that due to the increasing pluralization of many societies in recent decades, however, it is becoming more and more relevant to develop the particular aspects of theological ethics in the Lutheran tradition. Holding together both the universal and particular aspects of theological ethics constitutes a position of relevance for a pluralistic societal situation. Such a position enables the Christian church to maintain its distinctiveness and, at the same time, to be engaged in dialogue with other positions. In this way, the church will at once stand for a tradition-determined distinctiveness and be engaged in a tradition-transcending dialogue. Consequently, this position is characterized by both distinctiveness and openness.

As currently conceived, precision public health is at risk of becoming precision medicine at a population level. This paper outlines a framework for precision public health that, in contrast to its current operationalisation, is consistent with public health principles because it integrates factors at all levels, while illuminating social position as a fundamental determinant of health and health inequities. We review conceptual foundations of public health, outline a proposed framework for precision public health and describe its operationalisation within research and practice. Social position shapes individuals’ unequal experiences of the social determinants of health. Thus, in our formulation, precision public health investigates how multiple dimensions of social position interact to confer health risk differently for precisely defined population subgroups according to the social contexts in which they are embedded, while considering relevant biological and behavioural factors. It leverages this information to uncover the precise and intersecting social structures that pattern health outcomes, and to identify actionable interventions within the social contexts of affected groups. We contend that studies informed by this framework offer greater potential to improve health than current conceptualisations of precision public health that do not address root causes. Moreover, expanding beyond master categories of social position and operationalising these categories in more precise ways across time and place can enrich public health research through greater attention to the heterogeneity of social positions, their causes and health effects, leading to the identification of points of intervention that are specific enough to be useful in reducing health inequities. Failure to attend to this level of particularity may mask the true nature of health risk, the causal mechanisms at play and appropriate interventions. Conceptualised thus, precision public health is a research endeavour with much to offer by way of understanding and intervening on the causes of poor health and health inequities.As currently conceived, precision public health is at risk of becoming precision medicine at a population level.

The article is devoted to the study of the essential features of the head of the public service in a state body as a subject of public service legal relations. It is found that depending on the nature of the powers that determine the role and degree of participation of public servants in the exercise of public power functions, there will be a different range of rights and responsibilities of managers, specialists, executors. Given the great diversity of public servants, the scope of their powers affects the content of the legal status of a public servant, but not the fact of his belonging to the public service. It is established that the head of the public service in a state body has: a) the general status of a citizen of Ukraine; b) sectoral status within the framework of official law – the status of a public servant; c) a special status within the framework of official law, which is mediated by the nature of the powers granted – the status of the head of the public service in a state body. The substantive features which characterize a public servant who has acquired a special legal status of the head of the public service in a state body are singled out: 1) he is assigned to public servants; 2) he holds the highest position of public service in a state body; 3) he is obliged to perform a special type of duties that are an element of authority: a) in matters of public service and b) organization of work of other employees in this body. Attention is paid to the fact that each head of the public service in a state body is an official authorized to perform organizational and administrative functions, but not every official is the head of the public service in a state body. A possible algorithm for finding a higher position in a state body is identified: a) if there are positions in a state body that fall into different categories, the highest position in a state body will be held by the public servant who replaces a category “A” or “B” (in the absence of positions classified in category “A”); b) if there are positions in a state body that are assigned to one category, the highest position will be held by the public servant whose position is assigned to the highest subcategory.

Are representatives in authoritarian legislatures encouraged to take positions on salient issues? More generally, why do some autocracies allow public debate on hot topics at all? Understanding the dynamics of public legislative debate is important for the roles authoritarian legislatures are theorized to play in regime legitimation and information provision. I argue that the decision to allow public debate depends on autocratic incentives to mobilize public sentiment against the bureaucracy. While allowing debate on salient issues risks galvanizing antiregime sentiment, doing so may also mobilize public opinion against wayward government officials to improve performance and deflect blame. Therefore, I predict that autocrats will only allow public debate on issues they have delegated to the government. I test this using an automated content analysis of debate in the Vietnam National Assembly, with results showing evidence of position taking on salient issues, but only on issues the party delegates to the state.

This PhD dissertation is interested in the mass-elite linkages in the context of the immigration issue. It examines, on the one hand, factors likely to influence party responsiveness to public opinion (bottom-up connection) and, on the other hand, the impact of party stances and policies on public preferences in this policy area (top-down connection). Two chapters are dedicated to analysing the bottom-up process. Here, I examine to what extent party characteristics and party system features influence the responsiveness of parties to public opinion on immigration. The third chapter analyses the degree to which individual attitudes toward immigration are influenced by party positions and by immigration policies and policy outcomes (top-down process). The results indicate that parties do not track changes over time in the preferences of their party supporters. There is weak evidence that mainstream parties and parties with low distinctiveness in their immigration-emphasis profile are more sensitive to temporal changes in the mean voter's preferences. In addition, mainstream parties tend to be more responsive to changes in public opinion and in the objective migration context when they face a strong radical right party. Finally, there is evidence of weak but predictable impacts of party positions and immigration policies on individual attitudes toward immigration.
Esta tesis doctoral se centra en la conexión entre ciudadanos y elites en el tema de la inmigración. Esa cxamina, por un lado, factorcs que pueden influir en la reccptividad dc los partidos políticos hacia la opinión pública sobre el terna dc la inmigración (conexión bottom-up) y, por otro lado, el impacto dc los posicionamientos de Ios partidos políticos y de las políticas en materia de inmigración sobre las prefercncias de los ciudadanos en esta área (conexión top-down). Dos capítulos de la tesis se dedican al análisis del proceso bottom-up. Aquí, examino la medida en que las características de los partidos y de los sistemas de partidos influyen en la receptividad de los partidos políticos hacia la opinión pública sobre la inmigración. El tercer capítulo analiza la medida en que las actitudes individuales hacia la inmigración están influenciadas por los posicionamientos de los partidos políticos y por las políticas en temas de inmigración y sus resultados. Los resultados de los análisis empíricos sugieren que los partidos no son receptivos hacia los cambios a lo largo del tiempo en las preferencias de sus simpatizantes. Hay alguna evidencia, aunque débil, que los partidos 'mainstream' y los que tienen baja especificidad en términos de énfasis sobre temas de inmigración son más sensibles a los cambios temporales en las preferencias del votante mediano. Asimismo, los partidos 'mainstream' son más receptivos hacia los cambios en la opinión pública y en el contexto migratorio cuando compiten en contra de un partido fuerte de derecha radical. Finalmente, hay evidencia de impactos débiles pero predictibles de los posicionamientos de los partidos políticos y de las políticas en temas de inmigración sobre las actitudes de los ciudadanos hacia la inmigración.

Notre démarche consiste à prendre pour objet d'étude la profession d'ergothérapeute. Celle-ci peut être inscrite dans un champ professionnel plus vaste où existent des enjeux de légitimation et de reconnaissance. Profession paramédicale de la rééducation et de la réadaptation elle implique une formation de trois ans dans des écoles spécialisées sanctionnée par un diplôme d'Etat en ergothérapie. En effet, l'Etat en tant qu'administration est le vecteur premier de légitimation de cette profession, il lui reconnaît la maîtrise d'une technique formalisée dans le décret d'actes. Détenteur d'une qualification, d'une compétence technique spécifique l'ergothérapeute est toutefois subordonné à l'autorité du médecin prescripteur. En cela, dans le cadre de la division du travail médical, l'ergothérapie tient une place " d'intermédiaire " à l'identique des kinésithérapeutes ou des psychomotriciens, par exemple. Dans ces conditions une profession comme l'ergothérapie peut-elle jouir d'un certain degré d'autonomie ? Au sein des professions paramédicales et du monde médical en général les ergothérapeutes ont justement des difficultés à se positionner parce que les savoirs qui fondent la profession émanent de plusieurs disciplines (médecine, psychologie, techniques d'appareillage, ergonomie,). De plus, leurs domaines d'intervention ne sont pas toujours connus des médecins praticiens, des autres professions paramédicales et du grand public en général. Ainsi, la reconnaissance d'une profession telle que l'ergothérapie dépend en grande partie de la capacité des membres qui la composent à mettre en valeur leurs compétences auprès du corps médical, des patients ainsi qu'auprès de l'administration
Occupational therapy in the paramedical field: positions, stand points, perceptions. Our reasoning consists in studying the trade of occupational therapists. This profession can be included in a professional field in which legitimacy and recognition are at stake. Occupational therapy is a profession of reeducation and rehabilitation, that supposes a three-year training in special schools and for which a state degree is delivered. Indeed the state validates the professional qualification of occupational therapists through the decree of competences. However, the therapy performed by the occupational therapists has to be (taken) in accordance with medical doctor instruction. So, in the medical work division the place of the occupational therapist is in the middleman like the physiotherapist or the psychomotrician for instance. In these conditions can the occupational therapists get autonomy to a certain extent? Among the medical world in general the occupational therapists have difficulties to find a place because the knowledge on which is based the profession stems from many areas (medicine, psychology, ergonomics, ). In addition to that, all the areas covered by occupational therapists are not always known by the general practitioners, the others paramedical professions and people in general. So the recognition of the trade like the occupational therapists depends in great part on ability on his members to emphasize their expertise among the medical body, the patients and the administration

En raison des moyens exorbitants mis à la disposition du secteur public, les opérateurs publics se trouvent souvent dans une situation de force sur le marché. Cette position privilégiée engendre un risque accru de pratiques anticoncurrentielles pour les opérateurs publics et nécessite, corrélativement, une surveillance étroite de la part des autorités et juridictions en charge de la concurrence. De ce point de vue, la notion d'abus de position dominante, telle qu'elle découle de l'article 102 TFUE, revêt une place centrale. Loin de nier la spécificité des opérateurs du secteur public, le droit européen des abus de position dominante fonde un modèle à part entière dont la légimité mérite d'être défendue. Connu pour son expansionnisme, il inclut dans son champ d'application les opérateurs publics, explicitement visés par l'article 106 TFUE. Dès lors que les opérateurs publics répondent aisément aux critères de qualification de position dominante, le droit des abus de position dominante permet aux autorités et juridictions de la concurrence d'exercer un contrôle très approfondi sur leurs comportements de marché. Cette approche dirigiste du modèle européen de la concurrence s'explique par ses racines intellectuelles ordo-libérales. C'est, ainsi, à l'égard du secteur public que les concepts ordo-libéraux, sur lesquels repose la politique européenne de la concurrence, trouvent leur effectivité maximale. Mais l'article 102 TFUE n'a pas été épargné par le mouvement de modernisation qui irrigue le droit de la concurrence. Décriés pour leur sévérité et leur rigidité excessifs, les outils de contrôle habituellement pratiqués font l'objet d'un profond renouvellement doctrinal. Sous l'influence de l'analyse économique, les autorités nationales et la Commission européenne, sont désormais tentées de scruter les comportements anticoncurrentiels des entreprises dominantes à l'aune des effets concrets qu'ils produisent sur le marché. La défense du bien-être des consommateurs devient l'objectif ultime à viser. La Cour de justice se montre, en revanche, encore très attachée à sa conception traditionnelle des finalités assignées au contrôle des abus de position dominante. Elle défend un droit orienté vers la protection du processus concurrentiel. Ce modèle conserve une pertinence importante s'agissant d'appréhender les comportements spécifiques émanant du secteur public. Capable d'aménager ses raisonnements pour tenir compte des privilèges et des contraintes d'intérêt général liés à l'interventionnisme marchant, il se présente comme un moyen efficace de réguler la concurrence du secteur public
Because of the extraordinary means to which the public sector has access, public competitors often occupy a stronghold on the market. This privileged increases the risk of anticompetitive practices being adopted by public actors and therefore obliges the public and juridical authorities in charge of market competition to keep a particularly keen watch on this sector's activities. In this context, the abuse of a dominant position, as defined in article 102 of the TFUE, is a central issue. Far from overlooking the specificity of the public sector, the European Law on the abuse of a dominant position constitutes a model, which deserves to be upheld. The scope of this model, which is know to be particularly broad, includes the case of public actors, which is explicitly addressed in article 106 of the TFUE. Public competitors easily meet the criteria defining those in a market power, and the rules on abuse of a dominant position enable the authorities to control these players' market activities extremely closely. The regulatory approach adopted in the European model for competition can be explained in terms of the ordo-liberal intellectual background. It is in the public sector that this model has been expressed most effectively. However, article 102 of the TFUE has not been spared by the wave of modernisation which has pervaded competition law. The theoretical concepts underlying these widely used regulatory tools, which have been criticized for being too strict and too rigid, are being completely revised. National authorities and the European Commission, inspired by the latest economic analyses, are now tending to judge the anti-competitive behaviour of the most powerful firms in terms of its concrete effects on the market. Consumer welfare is becoming the ultimate goal. However, the European Court of Justice still maintains its traditional approach to preventing the misuse of competitive power: it supports a legal system designed to protect competitive structures. This model is still highly relevant when it comes to examine the public sector conducts. Since its premises are sufficiently flexible to be able to support both public privileges and general welfare, this model seems to provide an efficient means of regulating competition in the public sector

Despite soccer being arguably the world's most popular sport, Australia's national soccer competition has consistently failed to attract the prolonged mainstream support that is given to the comparable rugby league, Australian Rules football and rugby union competitions. This is a puzzling situation considering Australia's British lineage, soccer's British origins and the game's pre-eminent international status. Indeed, soccer's lowly position in Australia is paradoxical given the sport's historically dominant status in Britain and Australia's traditional adoption of Anglocentric culture. Most research into the situation has pointed to the sport's inability to shake-off the adverse effects of a lingering connection to post-World War II immigration and certain ethnic communities. Soccer has, in the eyes of many, been unable to access popular culture primarily because it has been viewed by the mainstream as 'foreign' or inherently un-Australian. The sport has clashed with traditional notions of national identity even though, historically, the Australian men's national team has received relatively strong community support. Strangely though, there has been little attention paid to the role the mass media has played in establishing, maintaining and even altering soccer's position in relation to mainstream Australian culture. While some researchers, such as Mosely and Hay, have criticised the media's coverage of violence associated with soccer at the domestic level, there has been no textual analysis of the mass media's role in soccer's marginal position in Australian popular culture. Considering that the mass media is critical to the development, reinforcement and maintenance of culture and has been implicated in shaping entire professional sporting competitions to its own ends, this is an area of considerable scholarly neglect. By undertaking a textual analysis of the mainstream newspaper coverage given to two critical periods in the history of the Australian men's soccer team it becomes clear that there is marked divergence between the media's treatment of internationally-based soccer and domestically-based soccer. This divergence in coverage has contributed to the development of two distinct mediated 'realities' of soccer, which in turn has influenced the game's ambivalent place in mainstream Australian culture. First, the media's control over the news production process has given it the ability to send textual messages that elevate soccer from its traditional cultural exclusion- and establish the national team as part of the historically dominant Anglocentric mainstream culture in Australia. This process has been inextricably linked to the increasing ethnic diversity of Australia's population and the dominant culture's efforts to maintain, despite this emerging plurality, the preeminence of a traditional Australian 'way of life'. Second, the media's messages have helped to maintain the ascendancy of the dominant culture by establishing the characteristics of modern day corporatised sport as the 'normal' expectation for soccer's development in Australia. As a result, soccer's future in Australia is deemed to be limited until it is able to conform fully to the commercialised and professionalised mode of production that defines the sport overseas.

Public diplomacy is an underutilised and underrated instrument in the conduct of South African foreign policy. Its direct and indirect support of diplomatic interventions lies in its value of being able to change the hearts and minds of foreign publics in support of national and international policies in the short, medium and long term. As the principal diplomat of a country the president, and his or her office, drive the foreign policy agenda, utilise the requisite instruments, capacities and structures at their disposal to achieve foreign policy objectives. The researcher's key question is, therefore, what is the role of the presidency in post-apartheid South African public diplomacy? The following related questions emerge. First, what is public diplomacy? Second, how does the presidency drive public diplomacy? Third, how has public diplomacy evolved over the different presidential periods in South Africa? Lastly, derived from this study, this position paper makes recommendations towards the development of a policy framework for public diplomacy and the presidency in South Africa. In doing so, the position paper looks at the theoretical concept of public diplomacy, developments in technology, the media and the overall engagement of the presidency and the efficacy of public diplomacy in South Africa.

Cette étude a été effectuée dans le cadre du contrôle qualité en radiothérapie externe, et porte plus particulièrement sur la vérification automatique de la position d'un patient au début des séances d'irradiation. Les images de traitement ou images portales, obtenues pendant le traitement sont comparées à une image de référence pouvant être une radiographie ou une DRR (radiographie reconstruite à partir des coupes scanner). La position du patient est vérifiée en 3D par la mesure du décalage entre les structures anatomiques dans les images de traitement et de référence. L'obstacle majeur à l'automatisation de cette tâche, est la très mauvaise qualité des images portales. Leur contraste est très faible, les images sont bruitées et les contours sont flous. Notre premier objectif fut donc l'amélioration de la qualité des images portales par filtrage et restauration. Un modèle générique des formes pouvant être visibles à la fois dans les images de traitement et de référence a été introduit comme connaissance a priori pour la segmentation des images de simulation. Une reconnaissance de forme est réalisée à l'aide d'un recalage déformable du modèle. Les formes spécifiques au patient sont le résultat de cette procédure et constitue la connaissance a priori introduite pour la segmentation des images portales. Sachant que la position du patient est proche de la référence, la superposition des structures de référence sur l'image portale, permet à l'aide d'un intervalle simulant les décalages possibles, l'élimination des segments n'appartenant pas aux formes recherchées dans l'image portale. Par ailleurs, les informations sur l'orientation locale des contours et la transition locale des niveaux de gris traduisant le passage de l'os aux tissus mous améliore les résultats. La position du patient est déterminée par un recalage rigide des images segmentées de traitement et de référence. La précision des mesures est inférieure au pixel en translation et inférieure à 1° en rotation
This research deals with treatment quality control in external radiotherapy, and concern more specifically automatic verification of patient set-up at the beginning of the fractions. Treatment images, or portal images, obtained during treatment are compared to a reference image that can be a radiograph or a DRR (digitally reconstructed radiograph). Patient positioning is checked in three dimensions by the measurement of anatomical structures displacement between the treatment images and the reference image. The main problem met by automation of this task is the very poor quality of portal images. Their contrast is very low, images are often oisy and edges are blurred. Our first aim was than the improvement of portal images quality, using filtering and restoration, in order to further the segmentation. A generic modelling of shapes likely to be found in both treatment and reference images was introduced as a priori knowledge in the segmentation of the simulation images. Shape recognition was realised by deformable matching of the generic modelling. Shape of patient specific structures result from this procedure and is the a priori knowledge introduced in the segmentation of portal images. Knowing that patient position is near the reference, reference structure and portal image superposition allows elimination, from the segmented portal image, of the segments that does not heng to the shapes of interest, by means of an interval simulating possible discrepancy. Moreover, information about edge's local orientation and the gray level local transition indicating the passage from bone to soft tissues, improve the results. Patient position is determined by a rigid matching of the segmented treatment and reference images. The results points out that the overall accuracy of patient position measurement is less than 1 pixel for translations and less than 1° for rotation

This master thesis examines the copyright law with the purpose of sorting out the consequences and the effects of the law impacted on libraries. The theories used are mainly discourse analysis and public domain theory. At the centre of the examination is the effects that copyright law bring to libraries and their ability to perform their work. A major part of this thesis is gathered around the analysis of the presumptive key words that give the structures of copyright law the possibility to claim rightfulness. This is an outspoken strategy to illustrate the discourse of copyright law. Through the whole working process the author is trying to keep a critical point of view. The literature that is used consists to the biggest parts of texts written as an examination of the copyright law and the effects of the law. The author also uses legislations and laws regulating libraries work in society. The goal of the examination is to point out and discuss the friction that appears when one system of intellectual property is institutionalized in society. With this comes the mission of opening a discussion concerning the possibilities for libraries to “keep going strong” in a time deeply influenced and regulated by copyright law.

Women continue to be greatly underrepresented in the school superintendency. Today, only 24.1% of superintendent positions are held by women—a slight increase from 13.2% in 2000 (Kowalski, McCord, Petersen, Young, & Ellerson, 2010). This study explored the barriers that women in California face when seeking and serving in the capacity of superintendent. Studying the barriers that women have encountered when aspiring to the superintendent position may better prepare other women for the top leadership position in public schools.

The research questions used to guide the study were: What barriers do women encounter while seeking and serving in the position of superintendent? How do women utilize support systems while aspiring to and serving in the position of superintendent? How do women perceive support systems' ability to enable women to overcome barriers? And, how do women use social networks while serving in the position of superintendent?

The methodology for this study was a mixed-method design. There were quantitative and qualitative data collected and analyzed. Surveys were sent to 26 female superintendents in California public school districts. From the surveys returned, purposeful sampling was used to select five female superintendents from Southern California public schools for one-on-one interviews.

The aim of the article is to present the position of public administration officials with a focus on the Czech Republic as an example of good practice. In today’s globalized society, the term clerk (or official) appears in a rather negative connection, following the organizational structure and bureaucratic apparatus. However, it is difficult to identify from the perspective of the media and the society itself what the view of the officials themselves on their profession and the difficulty of this profession is. The aim of the paper is to describe the position of the official and his/her performance connected with the view of the difficulty of this profession. The paper uses quantitative research methods through a questionnaire survey in public administration aimed at officials as respondents. Other methods used in the paper are analysis, comparison and description. All these methods of research give an overview of the selected view of officials on the performance of their profession in the selected group.

It is in the national interest of small countries such as Serbia to have as many journals in WoS as possible. WoS indexing boosts visibility and internationality and rises journals impact and quality. However, once they reach WoS and stabilize their position, some local journals turn to profit-making strategies, introducing or significantly increasing authors' fees (APCs), which usually results in a larger influx of foreign authors who can afford to pay such fees. Consequently, domestic authors practically lose the space to publish in their traditional platforms. Here, we discuss the question if such journals should continue to enjoy the support from the national public R&D budget entitled to supporting local science.

Muhammad Rizieq Shihab has been one of the most well-known faces of the far-right in Indonesia since the late 1990s. As a radical Islamist scholar with links to Saudi Arabia, Shihab has spent the last three decades as an anti-state voice of the “pious Muslim majority” in Indonesia. He claims to position himself as a “righteous” and “fearless” leader who is dedicated to defending Islam—the faith of “the people.” In 2020 Shihab was arrested for holding large public gatherings, as part of his ‘moral revolution’ campaign, in the middle of pandemic lockdowns. However, his radical Salafist message continues to inspire thousands to action.

Why does the rail infrastructure of the United States lag behind those of many other developed countries? Where is U.S. high-speed rail? This research approaches this in a dilemma by exploring Amtrak’s traditional rail services and high-speed rail projects in the nation to understand the workings of public rail transportation policies, what they contain, and how they are developed and pursued by the different stakeholders. This research utilizes case studies and a multiscale approach to analyze the territorialization of intercity rail transportation policies. The analysis demonstrates the emergence of a bottom-up approach to projects, notably apparent in the California HSR project and in the modernization of the Cascades corridor. Furthermore, this research concluded that, first, the development of uniform arguments and recommendations to encourage new rail policies emphasizes structuring effects and economic role of high-speed rail, congestion reduction, modal shift. Second, a tangible though uneven pro-rail position exists among public actors at all levels. Stakeholders prioritize improving and modernizing existing corridors for the launch of higher-speed services, and then on hybrid networks that combine different types of infrastructures. Although there are no publicly backed projects for new lines exclusively dedicated to high-speed rail, most of the high-speed corridors are in fact “higher-speed” corridors, some of which are intended to become high-speed at some time in the future.

This briefing paper aims to explore the role of public services in the transformation of asymmetrical power relations between women and men. Released on International Women’s Day, the brief argues that public services can play a decisive role in this transformation, by fostering a critical examination of gender roles, redistributing resources and opportunities and strengthening positive social practices that enhance gender equality. It puts forward five key elements for a gender-transformative approach to the management, delivery, funding and ownership of public services

This paper examines new data on public sector employees from 18 Latin American countries to shed light on the role of trust in the performance of government agencies. We developed an original survey taken during the first COVID-19 wave that includes randomized experiments with pandemic-related treatments. We document that individual-level trust in coworkers, other public employees, and citizens is positively related to performance-enhancing behaviors, such as cooperation and information-sharing, and policy attitudes, such as openness to technological innovations in public service delivery. Trust is more strongly linked to positive behaviors and attitudes in non-merit-based civil service systems. High-trust and low-trust respondents report different assessments of their main work constraints. Also, they draw different inferences and prefer different policy responses when exposed to data-based framing treatments about social distancing outcomes in their countries. Low-trust public employees are more likely to assign responsibility for a negative outcome to the government and to prefer stricter enforcement of social distancing.

The California State Rail Plan (CSRP) is among the best rail plan documents published by any jurisdiction in the United States to date. As such, the CSRP is used in this paper as the basis of comparison to other state rail service plans. These plans will have been submitted to the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) on record as of June 2020—as required under Section 303 of the Passenger Rail Investment and Improvement Act (PRIIA) of 2008. The purpose of this paper is to identify the best practices and gaps that may inform California and other states in their future rail service plan development. This paper is grounded in the realization that, while the general outline of FRA requirements is uniform for all states, the actual content and inclusion of these requirements in the myriad state plans varies greatly. For example, California was granted an exception to help update FRA Rail Plan Guidance for its 2018 Rail Plan, other states have complained that FRA guidance and requirements on rail service planning have put state rail agencies in the position of constantly writing plans with little or no time to implement them. Throughout this research, the authors identify all the elements of FRA guidelines as reflected in the CSRP and rail plans of other states. This report also identifies the best features and planning strategies that may inform and improve the state rail planning process going forward, steps that will positively contribute to the public benefit of enhanced rail systems.

The main recommendations of the panel report can be summarised under five key headings:  HUMANITY The Panel recommends recognition that research in this field should be geared towards the development of critical understandings of self and society in the modern world. Archaeological research into the modern past should be ambitious in seeking to contribute to understanding of the major social, economic and environmental developments through which the modern world came into being. Modern-world archaeology can add significantly to knowledge of Scotland’s historical relationships with the rest of the British Isles, Europe and the wider world. Archaeology offers a new perspective on what it has meant to be a modern person and a member of modern society, inhabiting a modern world.  MATERIALITY The Panel recommends approaches to research which focus on the materiality of the recent past (i.e. the character of relationships between people and their material world). Archaeology’s contribution to understandings of the modern world lies in its ability to situate, humanise and contextualise broader historical developments. Archaeological research can provide new insights into the modern past by investigating historical trends not as abstract phenomena but as changes to real lives, affecting different localities in different ways. Archaeology can take a long-term perspective on major modern developments, researching their ‘prehistory’ (which often extends back into the Middle Ages) and their material legacy in the present. Archaeology can humanise and contextualise long-term processes and global connections by working outwards from individual life stories, developing biographies of individual artefacts and buildings and evidencing the reciprocity of people, things, places and landscapes. The modern person and modern social relationships were formed in and through material environments and, to understand modern humanity, it is crucial that we understand humanity’s material relationships in the modern world.  PERSPECTIVE The Panel recommends the development, realisation and promotion of work which takes a critical perspective on the present from a deeper understanding of the recent past. Research into the modern past provides a critical perspective on the present, uncovering the origins of our current ways of life and of relating to each other and to the world around us. It is important that this relevance is acknowledged, understood, developed and mobilised to connect past, present and future. The material approach of archaeology can enhance understanding, challenge assumptions and develop new and alternative histories. Modern Scotland: Archaeology, the Modern past and the Modern present vi Archaeology can evidence varied experience of social, environmental and economic change in the past. It can consider questions of local distinctiveness and global homogeneity in complex and nuanced ways. It can reveal the hidden histories of those whose ways of life diverged from the historical mainstream. Archaeology can challenge simplistic, essentialist understandings of the recent Scottish past, providing insights into the historical character and interaction of Scottish, British and other identities and ideologies.  COLLABORATION The Panel recommends the development of integrated and collaborative research practices. Perhaps above all other periods of the past, the modern past is a field of enquiry where there is great potential benefit in collaboration between different specialist sectors within archaeology, between different disciplines, between Scottish-based researchers and researchers elsewhere in the world and between professionals and the public. The Panel advocates the development of new ways of working involving integrated and collaborative investigation of the modern past. Extending beyond previous modes of inter-disciplinary practice, these new approaches should involve active engagement between different interests developing collaborative responses to common questions and problems.  REFLECTION The Panel recommends that a reflexive approach is taken to the archaeology of the modern past, requiring research into the nature of academic, professional and public engagements with the modern past and the development of new reflexive modes of practice. Archaeology investigates the past but it does so from its position in the present. Research should develop a greater understanding of modern-period archaeology as a scholarly pursuit and social practice in the present. Research should provide insights into the ways in which the modern past is presented and represented in particular contexts. Work is required to better evidence popular understandings of and engagements with the modern past and to understand the politics of the recent past, particularly its material aspect. Research should seek to advance knowledge and understanding of the moral and ethical viewpoints held by professionals and members of the public in relation to the archaeology of the recent past. There is a need to critically review public engagement practices in modern-world archaeology and develop new modes of public-professional collaboration and to generate practices through which archaeology can make positive interventions in the world. And there is a need to embed processes of ethical reflection and beneficial action into archaeological practice relating to the modern past.

This report evaluates scope 3 emissions along the copper and iron ore value chains and the opportunities that Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) has to become a low carbon metals and solutions hub. The report presents four carbon emission scenarios that represent different sets of decisions for policy-makers and investors. Two scenarios fall short of aligning with Paris targets: (1) the business as usual (BaU) scenario with no further abatement action; and (2) a BaU scenario with the current level of emission reduction potential from players in the value chain (BaU Possible). The other two scenarios deliver the required carbon reductions to be compliant with the Paris Agreement by 2060, but through different strategies: (3) the BaU Paris scenario. where alignment with Paris targets is achieved by keeping BaU volumes and reducing carbon intensity per tonne of metal; and (4) the Decoupled scenario, where carbon intensity reductions are relaxed and compensated by a reduction in primary supply to align the value chain emissions to a Paris trajectory. All scenarios require LACs leaders to consider investments in low-carbon technology in different degrees. The report argues that, given its competitive position in the cost curve for copper and iron ore and an abundance of enabling factors for low carbon strategies, the region could become a key source of low carbon metals and solutions as long as it is proactive in adopting all the necessary measures from public sector and industry perspectives. Finally, the report concludes that myriad opportunities exist for LAC, including new business models, technologies and products, and that these could yield a greater economic and social contribution to the region than the BaU trajectories.
