Public High Schools' Ability To Support Gis: An Ohio Case Study, Daniel Donaldson
The Geographical Bulletin
A survey instrument was employed to examine: the present and future computer infrastructure of Ohio's public high schools; technology funding; and the GIS awareness and perceptions of selected Ohio high school educators. Results suggest that introducing computer technology into the educational framework is a priority to Ohio's administrators and teachers alike. Furthermore, the number of technology funding sources is increasing, as is the number of dollars spent on computer technology. However, computer use in Ohio's public high schools is not ubiquitous. Nearly 40 percent of all schools surveyed do not have the computer infrastructure necessary for GIS use. While this …

Marketing A 'Sense Of Place': Representations Of Africa In Ecotour Web Sites, Daniel P. Donaldson, James A. Tyner
The Geographical Bulletin
Patterns and forms of international tourism have changed significantly over the past three decades. Specifically, ecotourism has emerged as an ostensibly environmentally and culturally sensitive option to more traditional forms of tourist activities. Taking advantage of the proliferation of modern communications technologies, ecotour agencies have utilized the World Wide Web to facilitate the marketing and promotion of their tours. This paper examines the implications of Webbased technology and tourism. Through a qualitative analysis of 30 ecotour Websites, we identify and examine dominant discourses which perpetuate the representation of Africa as a dark, empty, wild continent, still open for Western appropriation. …

ROUTE TO THE JOB: " I had just finished an MA in music theory composition in 1980, and had originally intended to get a doctorate in music. Thinking that professional jobs in music and full time teaching positions would be difficult to find, I chose to work on a (second) masters degree in a science related discipline. The reason I chose Physical Geography was because: 1) this is a concentration where I had already received a second undergraduate major; 2) the discipline is a dynamic subject area which included many courses which interested me; and 3) this is an area …

Projections And Perceptions Editorial Comment: Geographic Seeing Eyes: Mind And Lens, Barbara A. Weightman
The Geographical Bulletin
What kind of camera do you use? How do you get those "people shots"? These are only two of many questions I am asked regarding slide photography. A geographic photo- one showing patterns, relationships, characteristics, and so on-is much more a product of the geographic mind than ofthe camera lens. The type of camera you possess is a small part of the equation for good "geographic photography." Of course it is nice to have wide angle and zoom lenses: much photographic equipment is loaded with "bells and whistles." You can even purchase a multi-pocketed jacket to hold them all. However, …

Journal of the Australian Indigenous HealthInfoNet
This review examines the epidemiology, prevention, and management of blood-borne viruses (BBVs) experienced by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Australia with a focus on hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV. The review highlights the disproportionate burden of BBVs among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in Australia, influenced by historical, social, and cultural factors stemming from colonisation. Key findings include higher prevalence rates of hepatitis B and C compared to non-Indigenous Australians, with some progress in reducing new infections through vaccination and treatment programs. However, significant gaps remain in screening, linkage to care, and treatment uptake. The review …

Monetary Policy In Good Times And In Bad: Empirical Evidence From Pakistan, Haider Ali
Monetary Policy In Good Times And In Bad: Empirical Evidence From Pakistan, Haider Ali
CBER Conference
A significant body of literature explores and establishes the impact of monetary policy on output and prices, at least in the short run. However, the subsequent question is whether this effect is symmetric concerning the various states of the economy (see, Tenreyro and Thwaites, 2016; Bernstein, 2021; Eichenbaum et al., 2022; among others). This study contributes to the literature on state-dependent (non-linear) effects of unanticipated monetary policy shocks according to two important features of the economy. The amount of slack in the economy and the amount of the public-sector footprint in the market. Evaluating state-dependent effects is crucial because assuming …

From Boom To Bust: The Perils Of Pro-Cyclicality In Fiscal Policy, Muhammad Nadeem Sarwar, Shagufta Shabbar, Zeeshan Hashim
CBER Conference
This paper delves into the intricate dynamics of fiscal policy, particularly in the context of developing economies, exemplified by Pakistan. While fiscal stimuli are commonly deployed to counter economic crises and foster growth, their implementation often results in increased public debt, inflation, and a host of macroeconomic challenges. Our study examines Pakistan as a case study, analyzes a) if the fiscal policy is procyclical, acyclical or counter cycle, b) how shocks in GDP and fiscal policy are received by key macroeconomic indicators including public debt, CPI, exchange rate, and money market rate etc. and c) what are the political economic …
A Review On Fiscal And Debt Policies In Pakistan, Karim Khan
A Review On Fiscal And Debt Policies In Pakistan, Karim Khan
CBER Conference
Pakistan has been pursuing an active albeit expansionary fiscal policy since 1970s. In the mid1970s to early-1980s, such policy choice was manifested in externally financed development spending, primarily in the form of investment in public enterprises. Despite excessive deficit financing, Pakistan’s economic performance never took off; rather, it remained on a path of truncated growth which, in turn, created structural hurdles like low productivity, poor investment climate, and higher unemployment. Likewise, deficit financing has been threatening the sustainability of fiscal framework as excessive public spending is not accompanied by corresponding enhances in domestic revenues. Consequently, these policies have caused persistence …

Authoritarian Legality Of Sifc: An Inquiry Into The Dual State And Economic Decision Making In Pakistan, Hassan Zaheer
Authoritarian Legality Of Sifc: An Inquiry Into The Dual State And Economic Decision Making In Pakistan, Hassan Zaheer
CBER Conference
Pakistan is no stranger to the union of authoritarianism with its economic decision-making. From the grand designs of Ayub Khan’s industrialization to Bhutto’s nationalization to Zia’s privatization, the country has been practically a laboratory of authoritarian experimentation over nature and the processes of the national economy. However, certain ideas have been coherent throughout time and space when it comes to the fusion of authoritarian law, arbitrary power, and economic decisions. These ideas have historically shaped the fusion of authoritarian power with economic decisions in the country. Resultantly, the authoritarian legality approach establishes a Dual-State in Pakistan by undermining normative processes …

Pros And Cons Of Debt Financing: An Objective Analysis, Anwar Shah
Pros And Cons Of Debt Financing: An Objective Analysis, Anwar Shah
CBER Conference
Debt financing plays an important role in the modern financial system. It is claimed that the interest rate equilibrates demand and supply in the loanable funds markets and helps in the efficient allocation of financial capital. It is also claimed that interest rates simply break up investment risk to suit the requirements of lenders and users of funds. However, the occurrence of the Global Recession in 2008 due to excessive debt financing in real estate (mortgage loans) and the resemblance of interest rate with usury requires investigation of the other side of debt financing. This paper aims to fill this …
