The question may usefully be pursued through the investigation of the personal address. Previous research; A study of `Madre' terms in Colombia; Results; Conclusion

Marketing Margins, Market Power, And Price Uncertainty, John Schroeter, Azzeddine Azzam

Azzeddine Azzam

This paper provides a conceptual and empirical framework for analyzing marketing margins in a noncompetitive food-processing industry facing output price uncertainty. The framework allows for the decomposition of observed margins into components reflecting the marginal cost of the processing industry, oligopoly/oligopsony price distortions, and an output price risk component. The empirical procedure is applied to a time series of spreads between wholesale pork prices and farm prices of market hogs. The principal finding is that, while farm/wholesale margins are more consistent with competitive performance now than they were fifteen years ago, the output price risk component persisted throughout the sample …

Using Auction Theory To Inform Takeover Regulation, Peter Cramton, Alan Schwartz

Peter Cramton

This paper focuses on certain mechanisms that govern the sale of corporate assets. Under Delaware law, when a potential acquirer makes a serious bid for a target, the target’s Board of Directors is required to act as would "auctioneers charged with getting the best price for the stock-holders at a sale of the company.’’ The Delaware courts’ preference for auctions follows from two premises. First, a firm’s managers should maximize the value of their shareholders’ investment in the company. Second, auctions maximize shareholder returns. The two premises together imply that a target’s board should conduct an auction when at least …

Australian Education, Paul J. Rich

Paul J. Rich

"When in Rome" has been my rule, so during stints in Australia I tried to do research into things Australian. one result was a series of studies of the interesting educational history of Perth. The background of Hale School and the early secondary school history of the city was somewhat confusing, so this piece attempted to sort things out.

Efficient Spatial Allocation Of Irrigation Water, Ujjayant N. Chakravorty, James Roumasset

Ujjayant Chakravorty

In the presence of conveyance losses, the efficient quantity of water applied falls with distance from the water source, but the amount of water "sent" (including conveyance losses) actually increases with distance from the source, except toward the tail end of the irrigation system. This implies that if marginal cost pricing were implemented, farmers at the middle and lower reaches of the system would have to pay more money for less water received. The model is illustrated and alternative financing schemes compared for an empirically derived demand function for irrigation water.

Gobiernos Locales Y Demandas Ciudadanas En Quito Y Guayaquil, Fernando Carrión Mena

Fernando Carrión Mena

La ciudad fue la primera forma de participación ciudadana. La polis griega, fundada en la democracia integraba al ciudadano a su actividad. El a su vez, la asumía como suya, como propia. Este sentido histórico se fue perdiendo. Ala par que el desmesurado crecimiento urbano alejó y distanció a esta relación; el Estado se fue complejizando hasta establecer una separación extrema que llevó en un primer momento a su diferenciación con la ciudad.

Pero poco a poco y de manera creciente se fue produciendo, por un lado, la separación del organismo político de la organización social -característico del Estado moderno- …
