Why and How Political Science Can Contribute to Public Health? Proposals for Collaborative Research Avenues
Written by a group of political science researchers, this commentary focuses on the contributions of political science to public health and proposes research avenues to increase those contributions. Despite progress, the links between researchers from these two fields develop only slowly. Divergences between the approach of political science to public policy and the expectations that public hea...
متن کاملModeling the interaction of parties , activists and voters : Why is the political center so empty ?
The formal stochastic model of voting should be the theoretical benchmark against which empirical models can be gauged. A standard result in the formal model is the ‘mean voter theorem’ stating that parties converge to the electoral center. Empirical analysis based on the vote-maximizing premise, however, invalidates this convergence result. We consider both empirical and formal models that inc...
متن کاملWhy Do Nations Trade ( So Little ) ?
There isn't nearly as much trade as standard models suggest there should be. Formal trade barriers and transport costs are too low to account for the difference. The pattern of missing trade has interesting variation across country pairs. These clues suggest the need for theoretical and eventually structural empirical work on the missing transactions costs. This paper reviews recent empirical f...
متن کاملWhy is so Little Spent on Educating the Poor ?
If the poor are to benefit from economic growth, then they need the skills that are in growing demand, and the capacity to raise their productivity as smallholder farmers and micro-entrepreneurs. Yet, the poor seldom receive a satisfactory education. Too little is spent on primary education—the category of education of most direct benefit to the poor—while on average public subsidies to seconda...
متن کاملWhy is the Linear Canonical Transform so little known ?
The linear canonical transform (LCT), is the name of a parameterized continuum of transforms which include, as particular cases, the most widely used linear transforms and operators in engineering and physics such as the Fourier transform, fractional Fourier transform (FRFT), Fresnel transform (FRST), time scaling, chirping, and others. Therefore the LCT provides a unified framework for studyin...
