Global Trade and Conflicting National Interests
Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, a research sponsoring foundation. William J. Baumol has published over 500 articles in various fields of economics. For more on Baumol’s background, see his interview in the Journal of Economic Perspectives (Krueger 2001). Gomory and Baumol also published several companion articles to this book (see for example, Gomory and Baumol 2004). GLOBAL TRADE AND CONFLICTING N...
متن کاملTrade policy and health: from conflicting interests to policy coherence.
Policy incoherence at the interface between trade policy and health can take many forms, such as international trade commitments that strengthen protection of pharmaceutical patents, or promotion of health tourism that exacerbates the shortage of physicians in rural areas. Focusing on the national policy-making process, we make recommendations regarding five conditions that are necessary, but n...
متن کاملConflicting selection pressures and life history trade-offs
We review studies of natural selection in wild populations in which selection has acted in opposite directions at different stages of the life history. For example, the phenotype with highest probability of survival may have the lowest reproductive success. We discuss two important implications of these findings. First, measurements of opposing selection confirm that evolution of traits is gove...
متن کاملA Design Process for Exhibiting Design Choices and Trade-Offs in (Potentially) Conflicting User Interface Guidelines
In the last decades a huge amount of knowledge about user interface design has been gathered in the form of guidelines. Quite often, guidelines are compiled according to user interface properties (e.g. usability, accessibility) and/or application domains (e.g. Web, mobile). In many situations designers have to combine several guideline sets in order to address the specific application domain an...
متن کاملThe “Magnificent Memo” Series: Trade-offs between Science and Engineering for the Square Kilometre Array
In this document, we revisit the scientific rationale behind the instrumental specifications for the Square Kilometer Array (SKA), and explain the loss of science that would result from various design decisions or cutbacks. A summary of our findings is as follows. • If a large number of pulsars need to be timed over long durations (e.g., years) to detect gravitational waves, multiple fields of ...
