World-systems Analysis
نویسنده
چکیده
World-systems analysis is a knowledge movement elaborated since the 1970’s and is a critique of dominant modes of analysis in the nineteenth-century social sciences. It insists on three things primarily: (1) World-systems (and not nation-states) are the basic unit of social analysis; (2) Neither nomothetic nor idiographic epistemologies permit useful analyses of social reality; (3) The existing disciplinary boundaries within the social sciences no longer make any intellectual sense.

Evaluating the Efficiency of Firms with Negative Data in Multi-Period Systems: An Application to Bank Data
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a mathematical technique to evaluate the performance of firms with multiple inputs and outputs. In conventional DEA models, the efficiency scores of Decision Making Units (DMUs) with non-negative inputs and outputs are evaluated in a special period of time. However, in the real world there are situations wherein performance of firms must be evaluated in multip...
متن کاملStability analysis of nonlinear hybrid delayed systems described by impulsive fuzzy differential equations
In this paper we introduce some stability criteria of nonlinear hybrid systems with time delay described by impulsive hybrid fuzzy system of differential equations. Firstly, a comparison principle for fuzzy differential system based on a notion of upper quasi-monotone nondecreasing is presented. Here, for stability analysis of fuzzy dynamical systems, vector Lyapunov-like functions are defined....

متن کاملAnalysis of Quran and Hadith on Confronting Water Pollution Using Rainwater Catchment Systems
Today, water quality reduction and water pollution are some of the challenges in different countries around the world. One way to meet these challenges is to harvest and store rainwater using rainwater catchment systems. By collecting rainwater using rainwater catchment systems, water does not flow on the ground. Therefore, using the rainwater catchment system helps to prevent rainwater from mi...
