Looking Forward
Authors: Sytch Maxim 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
The implications of a systematic examination of supplier-induced demand for organizations are substantial, encompassing considerations for managerial control, vertical integration, the economics of agglomeration, and the embeddedness of the economy. On a broader scale, supplier-induced demand raises questions about the allocation of talent to professional services compared to other sectors of the economy. A principled approach to mitigating supplier-induced demand involves systematically undermining the conditions conducive to its emergence. Instead of applying such measures universally to all transactions, they should be targeted at those with higher risk. Specific strategies to consider include selectively insourcing certain transactions, enhancing in-house expertise for identifying opportunities and evaluating solutions, and segregating the roles of diagnosis and implementation among different professional service providers. Additionally, professional service firms might explore leveraging organizational cultures as defenses against supplier-induced demand.
Return of the Gods
Authors: Ware Owen 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Why is mythology of vital importance for the romantics? What role does mythology play in their philosophical and literary work? And what common sources of influence inspired these writers across Britain and Germany at the turn of the nineteenth century? In this wide-ranging study, Owen Ware argues that the romantics turn to mythology for its potential to transform how we see ourselves, others, and the world. Engaging with authors such as Schiller, Blake, Schlegel, Coleridge, Novalis, and Shelley, Ware shows why they believe that neither perception nor reason alone can sustain a vision of the unity of all things. A new mode of cognition is necessary, they claim, one that revives the poetic origin of mythology and reveals our own mythmaking powers. The first study devoted to the rise of mythology in the British and German traditions, Ware’s book investigates the romantics’ practices of reinterpreting old myths and inventing new ones. Their shared aim is nothing less than to elevate the human imagination to higher stages of self-development in which philosophy and poetry, as well as intellect and imagination, form an integrated whole. Far from calling us to return to the past, the romantics’ work on mythology points us to a future where we can live in harmony with the personal, social, and natural worlds we inhabit. Combining intellectual history with philosophical analysis and literary criticism, Return of the Gods offers a bold reflection on why mythology mattered for the romantics—and why it still matters today.
Introduction
Authors: Ware Owen 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This chapter introduces the guiding questions of Return of the Gods. It outlines the book’s central thesis that mythology, for the romantics, grounds “unitive cognitions” that serve to harmonize the conflicting powers of the self. Because “old” mythologies express a pre-reflective mode of living, the romantics work to create “new” mythologies that serve to bring about, through symbols and stories, a state of wholeness in which reason and sensibility are reconciled. The chapter introduces the book’s further thesis that mythology is a hidden link between the traditions of British and German romanticism. This informs the book’s cross-national approach to the topic of romantic mythmaking, and it motivates the question of what sources of influence the romantics of Britain and Germany shared.
The Imageless Truth
Authors: Ware Owen 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This chapter turns to two second-generation British romantics, John Keats and Percy Bysshe Shelley. The argument of this chapter is that both Keats and Shelley develop the legacy of romantic mythmaking in their poetic work. §5.2–5.4 analyze Keats’s relationship to Greek mythology and his effort, in Endymion, to depict the soul’s journey to liberation. §§5.5–5.6 trace Shelley’s path to Prometheus Unbound and his commitment to an “imageless truth” that protects his symbolic mythology from reification. These sections also provide evidence of Shelley’s access to the German idea of a new mythology via the work of August Wilhelm Schlegel and Germaine de Staël. The chapter concludes (in §5.7) with a discussion of Shelley’s essay, “A Defence of Poetry,” arguing that this essay reveals the unique brand of Platonism that underlies Shelley’s conception of poetic knowledge.
South Korea and Labor-Export-Mediated Industrialization, 1964–1984
Authors: Lee Suzy K 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Chapter 3 presents the labor-export-mediated industrialization (LEMI) strategy utilized by South Korea between the mid-1960s and the mid-1980s. Unlike the policies promoted by international-development institutions today, which focus on migrant remittances, what generated economic growth in Korea’s LEMI period was not the flow of remitted wages but rather the competitive advantage that migrant workers provided to the companies of the labor-sending country. Korea’s ability to mobilize hundreds of thousands of low-cost, disciplined workers gave Korean construction firms extraordinary access to international markets—at first in Vietnam War-related contracts in Southeast Asia, then during the petroleum-driven infrastructure boom in the Middle East. LEMI strategies helped secure a number of factors that Korea needed to pursue its agenda, including sources of foreign exchange that the Korean state and capital needed to stay afloat during the early years of “learning,” where technological progress was achieved through costly experimentation and short-term failures.
Conclusion
Authors: Lee Suzy K 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Chapter 8 summarizes the book’s main arguments and explores the implications of its analysis. It describes variations of labor export that have emerged since the 1970s, including in China, where policies like those used in the LEMI periods of South Korea and the Philippines have been deployed under different conditions and for different purposes. It also considers the future of RDG in the Philippines. Because the RDG model relies on the multiplier effect of remittance spending, it requires a continued stream of remittances—and thus continued labor migration—to maintain growth levels. But for labor migration to persist, the levels of unemployment and poverty must remain high enough to lure millions of workers into international labor markets. Levels of inequality in the Philippines remain among the highest in Asia. This suggests that RDG, despite the wealth it may generate for economic elites, is not dissimilar to other forms of remittance-dependence.
Evolution of Fiscal Federalism in India
Authors: Rangarajan C , Srivastava D K 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This chapter highlights the evolution of fiscal transfer arrangements in India over the period covered by the First to the Twelfth Finance Commissions. This chapter also traces the evolution of the criteria for sharing of tax revenues in India, showing how the system moved from a tax-by-tax approach to a more global sharing of central taxes and how the criteria for horizontal distribution of sharing also converged. It also examines the basic considerations in the determination of grants by the Finance Commission and the main patterns in the overall transfer of resources from the centre to the states since the First Finance Commission. The move towards sharing of all central taxes and the determination of inter-se shares of states based on a common set of criteria has prepared the ground for easier application of the equalization principle in India towards which we have progressively moved. Apart from fiscal capacity equalization, the Twelfth Finance Commission also emphasized equalization in the provision of selected merit services such as health and education. This chapter also highlights the deficiencies of giving grants on the basis of estimated revenue gaps.
Fiscal Federalism in Practice
Authors: Rangarajan C , Srivastava D K 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
The Canadian system of transfers is a suitable example of the application of the principle of fiscal capacity equalization. In applying this, they follow a tax-by-tax approach, which has been referred to in the literature as the ‘representative tax system’ approach. The Canadian system brings home the point that a good indicator of fiscal capacity will have to go beyond using the per capita gross state domestic product (GSDP). Account has to be taken not just of production in a state but rather of the incomes that accrue to its citizens. While comparing the Canadian system of intergovernmental transfers with the system of fiscal transfers in India, this chapter notes that while the Canadian transfer system focuses on fiscal capacity equalization, this is supplemented by the Canadian health and social service transfers, which also serve the objective of equalization. This second edition provides an update on the Canadian fiscal transfer system since it has recently gone through a number of changes which has simplified their approach to equalization.
Fiscal Federalism in Practice
Authors: Rangarajan C , Srivastava D K 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This chapter makes a comparison between the fiscal transfer system in Australia and India. Australia is well known for following a more comprehensive approach to equalization where fiscal capacity equalization is supplemented by a detailed analysis of cost differentials across provinces in providing public services. As compared with Australia, India has not only a larger number of states and a greater concentration of population in low fiscal capacity states but also many factors responsible for differences in per capita costs of public services. The differences in size, heterogeneity, and the scale of problems notwithstanding, the conceptual basis of the transfer system in Australia has much relevance for India. At the same time, serious difficulties have also been noted with the Australian system. In the context of vertical transfers, Australia has simplified its methodology by making GST revenues fully transferable to the states. No other taxes are shared with the states. This chapter has an addendum which summarizes a number of recent important changes in the Australian system of fiscal transfers.
Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Finance Commissions
Authors: Rangarajan C , Srivastava D K 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This chapter provides a review of the recommendations of the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Finance Commissions. It covers their tax devolution formulae and the related weights assigned to each criterion. Their approach to grants has also been critically analysed. The Fourteenth Finance Commission increased the share of states in the divisible pool of taxes by 10 percentage points from 32 per cent to 42 per cent leading to a reduction in the effective share of the central government in their gross tax revenues. The central government responded by increasing non-sharable cesses and surcharges. Alongside, the central government has also shown reluctance to accept recommendations for grants other than revenue deficit grants, local body grants, and grants for natural calamities. This chapter, read with earlier chapters, provides a comprehensive review of the recommendations of fifteen Finance Commissions thereby bringing the analysis up to date. In the period covered by these three Commissions, major changes occurred in the context of central and state government finances including the introduction of GST, major Corporate Income Tax reforms, and the onset of COVID-19. The centre’s FRBM was amended in 2018 and states were also reorganized, with Jammu and Kashmir becoming a union territory with legislature, and Ladakh becoming a union territory without legislature. In this chapter, a critical analysis of the impact of these changes on India’s fiscal transfer system and the debt and deficit profiles of the central and state governments has been undertaken.
Future of Fiscal Federalism in India
Authors: Rangarajan C , Srivastava D K 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
In this chapter, we highlight the constitution of the Sixteenth Finance Commission and its Terms of Reference (ToR). Departing from the earlier practice of giving an elaborate ToR, the ToR of the Sixteenth Finance Commission is limited to making reference only to the constitutional provisions. The Sixteenth Finance Commission can therefore adopt a fresh approach to determining fiscal transfers. We discuss in detail various aspects of fiscal federalism in India that require reform, including its vertical and horizontal dimensions, the debt sustainability framework, the importance of environmental federalism in India, the need for institutional reforms, and the completion of GST reforms. In the context of the macro-stabilization and stabilization of debt and deficit of the central and state governments, more reforms are needed in the centre’s FRBMA, and the Sixteenth Finance Commission may consider recalibrating the path of fiscal balances of the central and state governments beyond suggesting modified benchmarks for sustainable debt and deficit targets. There is a need to reform some of the existing devolution criteria, including the population and area criteria. The weight given to the distance criterion and its formulation also require reconsideration. The working of the State Finance Commissions calls for significant improvement as well. The institutional backdrop of maintaining centre-state fiscal relations require further reforms Kelkar (2023). The setting up of a Loan Council and a permanent secretariat for the Finance Commission needs to be given adequate priority.
A “Christian” Slave in the Ottoman–Mughal Milieu
Authors: Anooshahr Ali 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This chapter identifies the literary references in Jawhar’s book to understand his education and Islamization. These took place within distinct Ottoman and Mughal milieus. They included popular epic literature in Turkish and Persian as well as classics of Persian literature by famous authors such as Nizami, Hafiz, Sa’di, and Jami. Based on the specific citations by Jawhar, this literature appears to have been catered specifically for the instruction of slaves. Finally, Jawhar’s writing shows evidence for the widespread presence of many others like him in early Mughal India who underwent similar training. The ghulams or “slaves” would undergo training as shagripishas or “pages,” and then would rise through the ranks based on merit.
Conclusion
Authors: Anooshahr Ali 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
This final chapter summarizes the main points of the book, but also expands on the approach of microhistory. While a few others have applied either microhistory or subaltern studies to Mughal history, the distinguishing features of the present book are its focus on a single individual through the analysis of his own writings. As such, the idea of narrative as methodology is essential. By narrative we mean not the characterization of telling a story (here Jawhar’s biography) but the sequential and temporal expectations of a person’s life that guides and limits the questions that are asked of our main source: Jawhar’s memoirs. Lastly, the chapter compares and contrasts Jawhar with an eighteenth-century counterpart (Tahmas Miskin) to show how individuals caught up in a similar fate were different from one another based on the changing nature of the Mughal state.
Who Is the Microscopist?
Authors: Kennedy Meegan 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Victorian microscopy offered a range of roles to participants. Nineteenth-century British science overlapped with popular natural history, building on research contributions by trained observers who were more likely to be clergymen or physicians than salaried investigators. After mid-century, many new guidebooks and informative articles encouraged readers to take up the lens and trained them in its use; despite financial and other obstacles for working-class and women readers, many of them did. Women were thought particularly deft at delicate work like microscopical illustration, but gendered assumptions persisted; the microscopist is always figured as a “man of science.” A survey of microscopical roles (including investigator, working microscopist, student, and hobbyist) shows their mobility—how individuals might move between these roles and between different communities, as with students who became adepts or investigators who also wrote as popularizers. Even the passive viewer helped shape Victorian microscopical culture.
Difficulty and Error
Authors: Kennedy Meegan 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Victorian microscopy was deeply informed by skepticism about embodied observation in many forms: Hume’s theory of mitigated skepticism, the development of typologies of microscopical error, physiological research into the vagaries of visual perception, and a culture that prized difficulty. These elements are pronounced in research settings but appear frequently in popularizing texts addressed to students as well. Although the typologies of error distinguish between (for example) errors in the observer’s practice, errors in the observer’s perception, errors in the observer’s judgment, and errors unique to the microscope, Victorian microscopical manuals also insisted on the interrelation of observer and instrument at every step. These texts use skeptical tropes (like many-sided comprehension) as a mode of practical instruction; they attempt to formalize and standardize microscopical practice as a component of empirical scientific work.
The Trained Eye
Authors: Kennedy Meegan 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
Victorian microscopical texts draw on skeptical tropes to both challenge and support the idea of the eye as a wonderful contrivance. Writers draw on physiological psychologists’ theories of embodied cognition, and revise theories of trained observation in everyday life, to address the optical, physical, and perceptual peculiarities that render microscopical vision difficult or even unnatural. The trained eye has acquired useful habits; it has learned to ignore some elements, such as Brownian motion, and compensate for others, such as the ungrounded, aperspectival microscopical image and the jumping of scale when switching objectives. The human eye is shown as part of an integrated optical system, another lens in an extended construct of reflected and refracted light. Hours of practice at the microscope may, however, fatigue or damage the observer’s eyes. Microscopical objects’ bodies are also distorted or destroyed in rendering them available for observation under the lens.
Consent and Its Absence
Authors: Macklem Timothy 
Published: December 2024

Abstract
The thought here is that consent marks the divide between the active and the passive. Consent is not intelligible when we function as agents; it is vital when we become patients. It follows from this, and from the fact that the law artificially deems consent necessary to the lawfulness of certain actions, and so to the physical contacts they involve, that we are bound to be lawbreakers in order to gain access to much of the good that sexual relations have to offer. This is not as troubling a conclusion as it might seem. First, we are well versed in the exercise of responsibility in our interactions with our fellows and normally no less well protected by that exercise than by the practice of consent. Second, where the sound exercise of responsibility cannot be counted upon, the law does what it can to fill the gap, or at least claims to do so. What of implied consent? Almost anything can be conveyed by implication, as long as there is a supporting language in social practice that is capable of making communication by that method possible. Yet it is in the nature of implication to be both indirect and ambiguous, and that means that practices of implication are distinctively vulnerable to error and abuse. Given the sorry record of the practice of implied consent in sexual relations, and given the significance of what is at stake there, there is good reason to renounce implied consent in favour of express consent.
A modified petal and stamen dimorphism interact to enhance pollen placement by a buzz-pollinated flower
Authors: Monteiro Thainã R , Gonçalves Rogério V S , Telles Francismeire J , Barônio Gudryan J , Nogueira Anselmo , Brito Vinícius L G 
Published: December 2024

Abstract

Background
Floral adaptations supposedly help pollen grains to cross the numerous barriers faced during their journey to stigmas. Stamen dimorphism and specialized petals, like the cucculus in the Cassieae tribe (Fabaceae), are commonly observed in flowers that offer only pollen as a resource for bee pollinators. Here, we experimentally investigated whether stamen dimorphism and the cucculus enhance pollen placement on the bee’s body.

Methods
We used 3-D-printed bee models to apply artificial vibrations to the flowers of Chamaechrista latistipula with their cucculus deflected or maintained in its original position and their anther pores manipulated. After each simulated flower visit, we captured photographs of the artificial bee from four distinct angles. Employing digital imaging techniques, we documented the presence and location of pollen and stigma on the bee’s body.

Key Results
Our findings reveal that the cucculus redistributes pollen grains on the bee’s body. There is a remarkable increase in pollen density (~10-fold) on the lateral side adjacent to the cucculus, precisely where the stigma contacts the bee when the cucculus is unmanipulated. Furthermore, the cucculus also enhances pollen placement on the ventral region of the bee, indicating its additional function. The cucculus also increases the accuracy of pollen grains on the adjacent lateral region of the bee’s body, irrespective of the pollen grains released by small or large anthers.

Conclusions
Floral specialized traits, such as modified petals and stamen dimorphism, can modify the fate of pollen grains and ultimately contribute to male reproductive performance in pollen flowers with poricidal anthers. The cucculus exhibits a dual role by promoting pollen placement in optimal regions for pollination and probably supporting pollen grains for bee feeding. These findings provide valuable insights into the adaptive significance of floral traits and their impact on the reproductive success of pollen flowers.
Helium Plasma Effect on Breast Stromal-Enriched Lipograft: A Case Report
Authors: Sterodimas Aris 
Published: December 2024

Abstract

Autologous fat transfer for large volume augmentation, reconstructive, and cosmetic purposes has become more popular due to the inherent biocompatibility, accessibility, and low cost. For volume augmentation, the retention of grafted fat is unpredictable. Several approaches to autologous fat transfer have prepared the donor fat and/or the recipient-site increase fat graft retention as well as the predictability of the retention. This study is the first clinical report on the combination of radiofrequency helium plasma pretreatment of the recipient site and a cell-assisted lipotransfer technique for enhanced fat graft retention. One patient underwent autologous breast augmentation using the stromal-enriched lipograft technique to process the fat prior to injection. Only the right breast received pretreatment using radiofrequency helium plasma after infiltration. The processed fat was injected using a droplet style injector. The patient was followed for 2 years and underwent breast MRI examinations for measurement of the graft volume. The overall fat graft survival after 12 months for the stromal-enriched lipograft was 63%, whereas the survival for the stromal-enriched lipograft in combination with radiofrequency helium plasma was 89%. The addition of biostimulatory techniques to prepare the recipient site for breast augmentation enhanced the fat graft retention. Further clinical studies using radiofrequency helium plasma are required to justify using this modality as a recipient-site preparation technique.
