This paper examines how credit unions manage accountability to government in the lightly-regulated context of Indonesia. Adopting a qualitative methodology involving case study approach, two cred...

In this paper we explore the strengths and gaps among NGO surveys based on an analysis of the records held in the CE-DAT database at CRED. We conclude by recommending the priority areas for strengthening NGO capacity to undertake surveys and ways to improve data quality in general.

In this paper, we investigate the role of young adult mortality on child labor and educational decisions. We argue that mortality risks are a major source of risks in returns to education in developing countries. We show that, in the absence of appropriate insurance mechanisms, the level of child labor is inefficient, but it can be too high or too low. It is too high when parents are not very a...

This paper is a survey of recent results concerning connections between relation algebras (RA), cylindric algebras (CA) and polyadic equality algebras (PEA). We describe exactly which subsets of the standard axioms for RA are needed for axiomatizing RA over the RA-reducts of CA3’s, and we do the same for the class SA of semi-associative relation algebras. We also characterize the class of RA-re...

Fusarium avenaceum (Fr.) Sacc. is an important phytopathogen. Fight against F. includes primarily fungicide usage. However, novel strategies are needed in a struggle with avenaceum. In this study, terpinolene was used as antimicrobial agent, and the harmlessness of tested on two contrast barley genotypes, Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Cervoise H. Premium. Firstly, minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC...

In this article we investigate two-level split-plot designs where the sub-plots consist of only two mirror image trials. Assuming third and higher order interactions negligible, we show that these designs divide the estimated effects into two orthogonal sub-spaces, separating sub-plot main effects and sub-plot by whole-plot interactions from the rest. Further we show how to construct split-plot...
