Book World Development Report 2019

Download or read book World Development Report 2019 written by World Bank and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2018-10-31 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Work is constantly reshaped by technological progress. New ways of production are adopted, markets expand, and societies evolve. But some changes provoke more attention than others, in part due to the vast uncertainty involved in making predictions about the future. The 2019 World Development Report will study how the nature of work is changing as a result of advances in technology today. Technological progress disrupts existing systems. A new social contract is needed to smooth the transition and guard against rising inequality. Significant investments in human capital throughout a person’s lifecycle are vital to this effort. If workers are to stay competitive against machines they need to train or retool existing skills. A social protection system that includes a minimum basic level of protection for workers and citizens can complement new forms of employment. Improved private sector policies to encourage startup activity and competition can help countries compete in the digital age. Governments also need to ensure that firms pay their fair share of taxes, in part to fund this new social contract. The 2019 World Development Report presents an analysis of these issues based upon the available evidence.

Book Translations In Times of Disruption

Download or read book Translations In Times of Disruption written by David Hook and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-06 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book throws light on the relevance and role played by translations and translators at times of serious discontinuity throughout history. Topics explored by scholars from different continents and disciplines include war, the disintegration of transnational polities, health disasters and revolutions - be they political, social, cultural and/or technological. Surprisingly little is known, for example, about the role that translated constitutions had in instigating and in shaping political crises at both a local and global level, and how these events had an effect on translations themselves. Similarly, the role that translations played as instruments for either building or undermining empires, and the extent to which interpreters could ease or hamper negotiations and foster new national identities has not been adequately acknowledged. This book addresses all these issues, among others, through twelve studies focused not just on texts but also on instances of verbal and non-verbal communications in a range of languages from around the world. This interdisciplinary work will engage scholars working in fields such as Translation Studies, History, Modern Languages, English, Law, Politics and Social Studies.

Book Diritto processuale civile  Vol  II

Download or read book Diritto processuale civile Vol II written by CARRATTA ANTONIO and published by Giappichelli. This book was released on 2024-01-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le rilevanti riforme, che hanno interessato la giustizia civile e che, apportate con il D.Lgs. 10 ottobre 2022 n. 149, sono divenute applicabili nei procedimenti introdotti dopo il 28 febbraio 2023, sono al centro di questa nuova edizione. Come è noto, con il D.Lgs. 149/2022 è stata data attuazione alla legge delega contenuta nella L. 26 novembre 2021 n. 206, la quale aveva delegato il Governo, sulla base di specifici principi e criteri direttivi, a procedere a «novelle al codice di procedura civile e alle leggi processuali speciali, in funzione di obiettivi di semplificazione, speditezza e razionalizzazione del processo civile» (art. 1, 1° comma, L. 206/2021). È anche noto che, nel perseguimento di questi obiettivi, il D.Lgs. 149/2022 non si è limitato a un generale riassetto del nostro codice di procedura civile in vigore da più di ottant’anni, ma ha proceduto anche a innovazioni normative particolarmente rilevanti e significative dal punto di vista sistematico. Tenendo conto anche di questo, nella nuova edizione si è provveduto alla revisione e alla riorganizzazione di alcune sue parti, pure non direttamente interessate dalla riforma, al fine di coordinarle e armonizzarle con le sopraggiunte novità normative. Nel fare questo si è cercato di dar conto anche della disciplina processuale previgente, in considerazione del fatto che – come detto – la nuova disciplina, salva espressa previsione contraria, si applica ai procedimenti introdotti dopo il 28 febbraio 2023, mentre ai procedimenti pendenti a quella data continua ad applicarsi la previgente disciplina. Infine, si è provveduto a recepire nel testo anche le ulteriori modifiche che alcune delle nuove disposizioni introdotte con il D.Lgs. 149/2022 hanno già subito dapprima con il D.L. 24 febbraio 2023 n. 13 (convertito dalla L. 21 aprile 2023 n. 41) e poi con il D.L. 10 agosto 2023 n. 105 (convertito dalla L. 9 ottobre 2023 n. 137) e le novità derivanti dal D.Lgs. 31 marzo 2023 n. 36 (codice dei contratti pubblici), dal D.M. 24 ottobre 2023 n. 150 relativo al registro degli organismi di mediazione e all’elenco degli enti formatori e dal D.M. 29 dicembre 2023 n. 217 in materia di processo telematico.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L. 26 novembre 2021 n. 206 e d.leg. 10 ottobre 2022 n. 149 e n. 151 Aggiornato al d.l. 24 febbraio 2023, n. 13 e alla l. 24 febbraio 2023 n. 14, di conversione del d.l. 29 dicembre 2022, n. 198 ("milleproroghe") Il d.leg. 10 ottobre 2022 n. 149, emanato in attuazione della l. delega 26 novembre 2021 n. 206, ha inciso in maniera significativa su taluni istituti generali del processo civile (giurisdizione, competenza, comunicazioni, notificazioni, atti processuali, modalità di svolgimento dell’udienza) e ha rivoluzionato la struttura del primo grado di giudizio (accompagnandola con la previsione di inedite ordinanze definitorie della causa e con interventi relativi ad alcuni mezzi istruttori). Il «procedimento sommario di cognizione» è stato sostituito dal «procedimento semplificato di cognizione», in gran parte prestato alle controversie di competenza del giudice di pace. Il giudizio di appello è stato in parte modificato, quello in Cassazione ampiamente rivisto, quello di revocazione arricchito di un’ulteriore ipotesi. Il rito delle controversie di lavoro è stato pure interessato dalla riforma in maniera diretta (con riguardo all’appello e al procedimento sui licenziamenti) o indiretta (attraverso l’applicazione delle modifiche relative agli istituti generali). Anche i procedimenti sommari di cognizione sono stati toccati dalla riforma. Autentiche novità sono state introdotte in materia di famiglia, con l’istituzione del c.d. «Tribunale della famiglia» (destinato ad entrare in funzione, però, nel 2024) e con la previsione di un procedimento di cognizione ad hoc. Sono stati pure revisionati il processo di esecuzione, la disciplina generale in tema di misure coercitive e quella in materia di arbitrato. L’opera analizza, con taglio sistematico, l’intero impianto della riforma, con la sola esclusione delle misure relative alla c.d. «giustizia complementare» (mediazione e negoziazione assistita), alle quali sarà dedicato un secondo autonomo volume.

Download or read book Perspectives of Law and Culture on the End of life Legislations in France Germany India Italy and United Kingdom written by Stéphanie Rohlfing-Dijoux and published by Nomos Verlagsgesellschaft. This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Présentation de l'éditeur : "The interactions between law and culture in addressing the legal problems at the end of a life are currently being discussed in many countries. The discourse on this issue should be multidisciplinary, taking into account its legal, medical, ethical, philosophical and anthropological aspects. The concepts designed to manage the legal problems that occur when a life comes to an end are closely linked to the culture of each country. For this reason, countries with different cultural backgrounds have been selected for this comparative end-of-life study. In France, Germany and Italy, which have a continental legal system, the United Kingdom, which has a common law system, and India, the various religions and cultures exert an important influence on the modernisation of the legislation in this respect. The book deals with recent legislative changes and developments in the countries surveyed."

On the other, attention is given to youth unemployment and to those forms of employment which might have an impact on young people. Section II touches upon the relationship between the environment and industrial relations, while the third part broaches the topic of the impact of technology in the context of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, also known as Industry 4.0.

Book I Saw the Muses

Download or read book I Saw the Muses written by Leonardo Sinisgalli and published by Guernica Editions. This book was released on 1997 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leonardo Sinisgalli (1908--1981) was born in Lucania, Italy, and was a painter as well as a major poet. His images and metaphors arise from nature. His muses perch on an ancient oak, eating, not ambrosia, but acorns and berries. The dominant landscapes of his poetry are intimate, a world of affections, places and people, that transcend time and the particulars of culture and locality. His language is plain and sensuous; his voice, gentle. In his poetry are the wonder of a child and the ironies of a twentieth century man.

Book Psychosocial Interventions for Mental and Substance Use Disorders

Download or read book Psychosocial Interventions for Mental and Substance Use Disorders written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2015-09-18 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mental health and substance use disorders affect approximately 20 percent of Americans and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Although a wide range of evidence-based psychosocial interventions are currently in use, most consumers of mental health care find it difficult to know whether they are receiving high-quality care. Although the current evidence base for the effects of psychosocial interventions is sizable, subsequent steps in the process of bringing a psychosocial intervention into routine clinical care are less well defined. Psychosocial Interventions for Mental and Substance Use Disorders details the reasons for the gap between what is known to be effective and current practice and offers recommendations for how best to address this gap by applying a framework that can be used to establish standards for psychosocial interventions. The framework described in Psychosocial Interventions for Mental and Substance Use Disorders can be used to chart a path toward the ultimate goal of improving the outcomes. The framework highlights the need to (1) support research to strengthen the evidence base on the efficacy and effectiveness of psychosocial interventions; (2) based on this evidence, identify the key elements that drive an intervention's effect; (3) conduct systematic reviews to inform clinical guidelines that incorporate these key elements; (4) using the findings of these systematic reviews, develop quality measures - measures of the structure, process, and outcomes of interventions; and (5) establish methods for successfully implementing and sustaining these interventions in regular practice including the training of providers of these interventions. The recommendations offered in this report are intended to assist policy makers, health care organizations, and payers that are organizing and overseeing the provision of care for mental health and substance use disorders while navigating a new health care landscape. The recommendations also target providers, professional societies, funding agencies, consumers, and researchers, all of whom have a stake in ensuring that evidence-based, high-quality care is provided to individuals receiving mental health and substance use services.

Book Evidence Based Public Health

Download or read book Evidence Based Public Health written by Ross C. Brownson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-12-03 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are at least three ways in which a public health program or policy may not reach stated goals for success: 1) Choosing an intervention approach whose effectiveness is not established in the scientific literature; 2) Selecting a potentially effective program or policy yet achieving only weak, incomplete implementation or "reach," thereby failing to attain objectives; 3) Conducting an inadequate or incorrect evaluation that results in a lack of generalizable knowledge on the effectiveness of a program or policy; and 4) Paying inadequate attention to adapting an intervention to the population and context of interest To enhance evidence-based practice, this book addresses all four possibilities and attempts to provide practical guidance on how to choose, carry out, and evaluate evidence-based programs and policies in public health settings. It also begins to address a fifth, overarching need for a highly trained public health workforce. This book deals not only with finding and using scientific evidence, but also with implementation and evaluation of interventions that generate new evidence on effectiveness. Because all these topics are broad and require multi-disciplinary skills and perspectives, each chapter covers the basic issues and provides multiple examples to illustrate important concepts. In addition, each chapter provides links to the diverse literature and selected websites for readers wanting more detailed information. An indispensable volume for professionals, students, and researchers in the public health sciences and preventative medicine, this new and updated edition of Evidence-Based Public Health aims to bridge research and evidence with policies and the practice of public health.

Book The Power to Arrest

Download or read book The Power to Arrest written by Robin S. Engel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-06 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This insightful volume examines key research questions concerning police decision to arrest as well as police-led diversion. The authors critically evaluate the tentative answers that empirical evidence provides to those questions, and suggest areas for future inquiry. Nearly seven decades of empirical study have provided extensive knowledge regarding police use of arrest. However, this research highlights important gaps in our understanding of factors that shape police decision-making and what is required to alter current police practice. Reviewing this research base, this brief takes stock of what is known empirically about all aspects related to the use of arrests, providing important insights on the knowledge needed to make evidence-based policy decisions moving forward. With the potential to better impact policy and programs for alternatives to arrest, this brief will appeal to researchers and practitioners in evidence-based policing and police decision-making, as well as those interested in alternatives to arrest and related fields such as public policy.
