Explaining variations in the knowledge economy in three small wealthy countries

At a broad level, it has been shown that different institutional contexts, policy regimes and business systems affect the kinds of activities in which a nation specialises. This paper is concerned with the way in which different national business systems affect the nature of participation of a nation in the knowledge economy. The paper seeks to explain cross-national variations in the knowledge economy in the Australia, Denmark and Sweden with reference to dominant characteristics of the business system. Although Australia, Denmark and Sweden are all small wealthy countries, they each have quite distinctive business systems. Australia has been regarded as a variant of the competitive business system and has generally been described as an entrepreneurial economy with a large small firm population. In contrast Sweden has a coordinated business system that has favoured large industrial firms. The Danish variant of the coordinated model, with its well-developed vocational training system, is distinguishable by its large population of networked small and medium size enterprises. The three countries also differ significantly on two dimensions of participation in the knowledge economy. First, there is cross-national variation in patterns of specialisation in knowledge intensive industries and services. Second, the institutional infrastructure of the knowledge economy (or the existing stock of knowledge and competence in the economy, the potential for generation and diffusion a new knowledge and the capacity for commercialisation of new ideas) differs across the three countries. This paper seeks to explain variations in these two dimensions of the knowledge economy with reference to characteristics of the business system in the three countries.

Regional climate change and harmful algal blooms in the northeast Atlantic

We investigated long-term spatial variability in a number of Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) in the northeast Atlantic and North Sea using data from the Continuous Plankton Recorder. Over the last four decades. some dinoflagellate taxa showed pronounced variation in the south and east of the North Sea, with the most significant increases being restricted to the adjacent waters off Norway. There was also a general decrease along the eastern coast of the United Kingdom. The most prominent feature in the interannual bloom frequencies over the last four decades was the anomalously high values recorded in the late 1980s in the northern and central North Sea areas. The only mesoscale area in the northeast Atlantic to show a significant increase in bloom formation over the last decade was the Norwegian coastal region. The changing spatial patterns of HAB taxa and the frequency of bloom formation are discussed in relation to regional climate change, in particular, changes in temperature, salinity, and the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). Areas highly vulnerable to the effects of regional climate change on HABs are Norwegian coastal waters and the Skagerrak. Other vulnerable areas include Danish coastal waters, and to a lesser extent, the German and Dutch Bight and the northern Irish Sea. Quite apart from eutrophication, our results give a preview of what might happen to certain HAB genera under changing climatic conditions in temperate environments and their responses to variability of climate oscillations Such as the NAO.

The changing nature of innovation networks in Taiwan: From imitation to innovation?

Taiwan is embarking on a new phase in its approach to building its national innovative capacity, through building the infrastructure for a biotechnology industry. Rather than acting as a “fast follower” of trends developed elsewhere, Taiwan is seeking to evolve the elements of a national innovation system, including upgrading the role of universities in providing fundamental R&D, in providing incubators for new, knowledge-based firms, in developing new funding models, and in establishing new biotech-focused science parks. This paper reviews the progress achieved to date, and the prospects for this new phase in Taiwan’s transition from imitation to innovation

Measuring globalisation: An evolutionary economic approach to tracking the evolution of international trade

Operationalising and measuring the concept of globalisation is important, as the extent to which the international economy is integrated has a direct impact on industrial dynamics, national trade policies and firm strategies. Using complex systems network analysis with longitudinal trade data from 1938 to 2003, this paper presents a new way to measure globalisation. It demonstrates that some important aspects of the international trade network have been remarkably stable over this period. However, several network measures have changed substantially over the same time frame. Taken together, these analyses provide a novel measure of globalisation.

NOVAS CONFIGURAÇÕES DAS FAMÍLIAS CONTEMPORÂNEAS: RUPTURAS E/OU CONTINUIDADES NOS DISCURSOS E PRÁTICAS DE METODISTAS E LUTERANOS ACERCA DO DIVÓRCIO E NOVOS CASAMENTOS

Na contemporaneidade, a família tradicional (pai, mãe, filhos) passou por mudanças de paradigmas, gerando novas configurações familiares, mais flexíveis e plurais. Nas novas configurações, o elemento de constituição não é só a partir dos laços de parentesco de nature-za biológica e civil, mas, principalmente, o da afetividade. Nesta dissertação, analisamos as rupturas e/ou continuidades dos discursos institucionais religiosos no protestantismo histórico, mais especificamente nas Igrejas Metodista e Luterana, acerca dos divórcios e novos casa-mentos. O objetivo da pesquisa foi o de identificar em que medida o posicionamento institu-cional religioso e a prática das comunidades de fé são coerentes e/ou dissonantes em relação às transformações experimentadas pela instituição família na contemporaneidade. Os docu-mentos utilizados para as análises foram: pastorais, jornais oficiais, atas, e demais documentos que foram pesquisados nos acervos da biblioteca da UMESP e no Portal Luteranos. A pesqui-sa de campo foi realizada através da aplicação de questionários e entrevistas aos sujeitos reli-giosos no município de Ferraz de Vasconcelos, nas Igrejas Metodista e Luterana. Através da análise documental e da pesquisa de campo, buscamos identificar o impacto que as novas con-figurações familiares causaram sobre o discurso institucional e sobre a prática eclesial.
