Lalu Lintas Modal Di Negara-Negara Asean-5: Sistem Monitoring Dan Determinan Lalu Lintas Modal, Benny Siswanto, Yati Kurniati, Harmanta Harmanta

Bulletin of Monetary Economics and Banking

Arus modal masuk netto ke negara berkembang pada periode awal tahun 1990-an meningkat pesat. Dalam kurun waktu tersebut, terdapat berapa perubahan mendasar yang menarik untuk disimak, antara lain meningkatnya peranan lalu lintas modal sawasta melampaui arus modal dan semakin beragam-nya komposisi lalu lintas modal swasta. Meningkatnya minat investor ke negara berkembang terutama dipengaruhi faktor internal (antara lain perbaikan creditworthiness, peningkatan produktivitas, dan penerapan system nilai tukar “tetap” ), faktor eksternal struktural (seperti peluang diversifikasi resiko, dan kelayakan investasi di negara-negara emerging market akibat liberalisasi arus modal).

The Use Of Performance Models In Higher Education: A Comparative International Review, Janet Atkinson-Grosjean, Garnet Grosjean

Education Policy Analysis Archives (EPAA)

Higher education (HE) administrators worldwide are responding to performance-based state agendas for public institutions. Largely ideologically-driven, this international fixation on performance is also advanced by the operation of isomorphic forces within HE's institutional field. Despite broad agreements on the validity of performance goals, there is no "one best" model or predictable set of consequences. Context matters. Responses are conditioned by each nation's historical and cultural institutional legacy. To derive a generalized set of consequences, issues, and impacts, we used a comparative international format to examine the way performance models are applied in the United States, England, Australia, New Zealand, Sweden, …
