Personnel Systems in Japanese Local Governments
Personnel systems and policies can have a substantial influence on the quality of local government. This paper shows that Japanese local governments provide stable and well-paid careers. Indeed, pay scales are slightly higher than those of central government staff. As a result, Japanese local governments have attracted good staff into their ranks and built up strong human resource capacity over...
متن کاملPolitical Institutions and Conservation by Local Governments
In this article, the authors develop a political market framework to explain the circumstances under which Florida counties will supply environmental public goods in the form of conservation amendments to county general plans. The framework emphasizes the role of local legislative and executive institutions as mediators of local policy change. Using count models and interaction terms, the analy...
متن کاملImmigration Policies Go Local: The Varying Responses Of Local Governments To Undocumented Immigration
This paper seeks to advance our understanding of local government ordinances on issues related to unauthorized immigrant residents including day labor markets, housing, unlicensed businesses, and cooperation with federal immigration authorities. We attempt to answer the question of why such ordinances are considered, passed, or fail to pass in some areas and not others. Some factors expected to...
متن کاملRadiative energy shifts induced by local potentials
We study a specific correction to the Bethe logarithm induced by potentials which are proportional to a Dirac-δ function in coordinate space (“local potentials”). Corrections of this type occur naturally in the calculation of various self-energy corrections to the energy of bound states. Examples include logarithmic higher-order binding corrections to the two-loop self-energy, vacuum-polarizati...
متن کاملLocal Casimir energy for solitons
A direct calculation of the one-loop contributions to the energy density of bosonic and supersymmetric φ4 kinks exhibits: (1) Local mode regularization. Regularization of the Casimir energy density maintains equality for the soliton and trivial vacua of not only the total number of field oscillation modes, but also the total mode density at each point in space. This yields the anomalous part of...
