Multiple Regime Shifts and the Effect of Changes in Leadership on the United States Supreme Court Dissent Rate
Creators: name: Narayan, Paresh Kumar

Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: In this paper we use a global optimization technique developed by Bai and Perron (1998) to estimate both the number and location of structural breaks in dissenting opinions on the United States Supreme Court. While it has commonly been believed that there has been one regime shift in dissenting opinions on the United States Supreme Court corresponding to the breakdown in the consensual norm in the 1930s or 1940s, we find that there have been three breaks. We then test to see if changes in the leadership of the Supreme Court have had a statistically significant effect on dissent taking the structural breaks as given. This is a more rigorous test of the influence of judicial leadership on consensus than testing leadership dummy variables against an otherwise fixed intercept as commonly used in previous research. We find that changes in the leadership of the Court have had a statistically significant effect on variations in dissenting opinions.

description: En este trabajo tratamos aspectos no aludidos por la prolongada controversia suscitada por el pensamiento de Hegel. Abordamos el problema principal de la filosofía moderna de donde se desprende la concepción y método hegelianos, destacamos la importancia excepcional de la dialéctica y su tránsito del idealismo hegeliano al materialismo marxista, la contribución original de Ludwig Feuerbach a éste último. El cambio del súbdito al ciudadano por el naciente Estado nación, la concepción hegeliana del Estado y las duras críticas de Popper con intentos malogrados de atribuirle la autoría intelectual de los totalitarismos. Damos cuenta de la idea grata de Hegel sobre la naciente clase empresarial y su respectivo Estado.

Data-efficient deep representation learning
Creators: name: Mo, Yuanhan
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: Current deep learning methods succeed in many data-intensive applications, but they are still not able to produce robust performance due to the lack of training samples. To investigate how to improve the performance of deep learning paradigms when training samples are limited, data-efficient deep representation learning (DDRL) is proposed in this study. DDRL as a sub area of representation learning mainly addresses the following problem: How can the performance of a deep learning method be maintained when the number of training samples is significantly reduced? This is vital for many applications where collecting data is highly costly, such as medical image analysis. Incorporating a certain kind of prior knowledge into the learning paradigm is key to achieving data efficiency. Deep learning as a sub-area of machine learning can be divided into three parts (locations) in its learning process, namely Data, Optimisation and Model. Integrating prior knowledge into these three locations is expected to bring data efficiency into a learning paradigm, which can dramatically increase the model performance under the condition of limited training data. In this thesis, we aim to develop novel deep learning methods for achieving data-efficient training, each of which integrates a certain kind of prior knowledge into three different locations respectively. We make the following contributions. First, we propose an iterative solution based on deep learning for medical image segmentation tasks, where dynamical systems are integrated into the segmentation labels in order to improve both performance and data efficiency. The proposed method not only shows a superior performance and better data efficiency compared to the state-of-the-art methods, but also has better interpretability and rotational invariance which are desired for medical imagining applications. Second, we propose a novel training framework which adaptively selects more informative samples for training during the optimization process. The adaptive selection or sampling is performed based on a hardness-aware strategy in the latent space constructed by a generative model. We show that the proposed framework outperforms a random sampling method, which demonstrates effectiveness of the proposed framework. Thirdly, we propose a deep neural network model which produces the segmentation maps in a coarse-to-fine manner. The proposed architecture is a sequence of computational blocks containing a number of convolutional layers in which each block provides its successive block with a coarser segmentation map as a reference. Such mechanisms enable us to train the network with limited training samples and produce more interpretable results.

description: El término simulación es entendido como la capacidad mimética de las personas para enfrentar y resolver las situaciones en las relaciones sociales, asociada también a la idea de máscara que no permite ver más allá de los intereses y deseos personales, para satisfacer las propias ambiciones (Villanueva, 2113). El principio de “todo pasa” es retomado con la confianza que todos los actos errados pueden ser disfrazados a través del acto de simulación y en este aspecto ha sido repetido en el transcurso de la historia en los campos políticos, científicos, sociales y culturales de todas las sociedades El arte de simular corroe las relaciones sociales, económicas, políticas, culturales de la sociedad, y es así como nos encontramos con situaciones absurdas que nutren la realidad de nuestro país.

El amor y la muerte en la obra: Los negros pájaros del adiós

Publisher: name: Contexto Odontológico
Year: 2018

description: Con el presente ensayo se intenta dar una visión sucinta del tema del amor y la muerte expuesto por el escritor sinaloense Jesús Óscar Cabanillas Flores, mejor conocido en el ámbito teatral como Óscar Liera, nacido en 1946 y fallecido en 1990. Para el análisis se utilizará su obra Los negros pájaros del adiós, representada en 1986, en la cual maneja de manera recurrente el tema de la muerte. Se trata de una obra distinta a su más difundida, El camino rojo a Sabaida, aparecida en el año 1987, en la cual ciertamente se basa sobre personajes muertos, pero se observa que su leitmotiv no es la muerte como tal, sino la denuncia política sobre un hecho real, tan entendida así por los gestores del poder, que, consecuencialmente, lo condujo a la cárcel. Es decir, que aunque la muerte aparece en ambas obras, el manejo temático es diferente en cuanto a su propósito y desarrollo.

description: Cuando se habla de educación nunca faltan discusiones centradas en sus fines, pero rara vez se trata el asunto relacionado con sus principios, siendo que son estos los que constituyen su basamento. Seguramente el problema tiene que ver con una cuestión de jerarquización, pues siempre se da prioridad a los para qué sobre los por qué. Desde luego que esta situación no es gratuita y responde a una determinada política educativa, que en los últimos años se ha dirigido –por lo menos en México– a formar individuos competentes en una sola cosa, muy versados en algún tema pero poco reflexivos; situación que ha empujado no solo a los estudiantes sino también a los profesores a la consecución de méritos académicos. Dado este panorama, es preciso repensar los principios de la educación para lograr que se aproximen al ideal: elucidar.

Symbolism in Management Education: An Analysis of the Origins and Academic Relevance of the 'Bachelor' Qualification in a Gender Balanced, Multi-cultural Society
Creators: name: Townsend, Peter
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Research of the origins of the academic title 'Bachelor' establish the word usage in English speaking, western universities; based on a social status.The proposition is that the term is no longer relevant and acceptable today in our gender-balanced, global, multi-cultural society. Alhough there has been a significant shift in the perceptions and usage away from gender-based nouns, words evoke strong mental images. This form of subtle gender socialisation should be excluded from education by gender-neutrality. Education requires symbols of transformational leadership reflecting the present truths; facilitating cultural change relevant to society.Practically, academia has to give considerations to re-generating it's own image in terms which are acceptable to business, employees and society, as well as to the new breed of students from diverse cultures across the world.The literary proposition is that the specific 'Bachelor' title breaches Equal Opportunity legislation and international guidelines on sexual discrimination; also contravening policies introduced by states, companies and educational establishments concerning gender neutrality in literature content. The research suggests a need for symbolic gender change in the title 'Bachelor', being perceived as discriminatory by students. This analysis is from an Australian perspective. The research that raises the questions as to the validity of the term 'Bachelor' was conducted here, however, the results have both worldwide implications and applications. It is intended as a discussion topic rather than a scholarly submission.

Supply and Demand for Medical Care: Or, Is the Health Care Market Perverse?
Creators: name: Richardson, Jeff
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This paper examines the structure of the health sector and summarises the reasons for believing that market behaviour is idiosyncratic. The pivotal relationship which largely permits this perversity is the influence of doctors over patients or, the so called theory of `Supplier Induced Demand' (SID). Empirical evidence and theoretical arguments relating to the theory are summarised. Three analyses of Australian data are reported. These are (i) the correlational evidence from time series and cross sectional data; (ii) econometric analyses of cross sectional data; and (iii) evidence from the `natural experiment' of public and private service use following hospital admission with a heart attack. It is concluded that, while the theory of SID is well supported and helps to explain the failure of simple competitive markets, it is not of decisive importance for the determination of future health sector reform which might, potentially, adopt either a competitive or cooperative model of health service delivery.

From backlot to runaway production: exploring location and authenticity in film-induced tourisms
Creators: name: Frost, Warwick
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Films may represent a place, but be made at another. In the early years of film-making, quite elaborate sets were constructed on studio backlots. In recent years, runaway productions have represented the USA while being shot in other countries. The dissonance between film setting and film location raises the question of which is more likely to attract tourists. It also suggests that tourists may have difficulties with authenticity. This paper seeks to examine these issues by taking an historical approach to the changing ways in which location has been used by film-makers over time.

Assessing the impact of market microstructure noise and random jumps on the relative forecasting performance of option-implied and returns-based volatility

description: This paper presents a comprehensive empirical evaluation of option-implied and returns-based forecasts of volatility, in which new developments related to the impact on measured volatility of market microstructure noise and random jumps are explicitly taken into account. The option-based component of the analysis also accommodates the concept of model-free implied volatility, such that the forecasting performance of the options market is separated from the issue of misspecification of the option pricing model. The forecasting assessment is conducted using an extensive set of observations on equity and option trades for News Corporation for the 1992 to 2001 period, yielding certain clear results. According to several different criteria, the model-free implied volatility is the best performing forecast, overall, of future volatility, with this result being robust to the way in which alternative measures of future volatility accommodate microstructure noise and jumps. Of the volatility measures considered, the one which is, in turn, best forecast by the option-implied volatility is that measure which adjusts for microstructure noise, but which retains some information about random jumps.

Regional Aspects of Microeconomic Reform in the Electricity Supply Industry of Victoria

Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: As a result of the microeconomic reform of the electricity generation industry in Victoria, even though the state as a whole, in future, would be able to enjoy the promised benefits of this measure, the main power supplying area of the State - the La Trobe Valley Region - appeared to be the most affected by the recent recession. A few thousand people have been retrenched and considerable migration of population takes place from the region to other areas of Victoria and interstate. Based on this example the paper examines some theoretical issues of the consequences of microeconomic reforms of a natural monopoly in an area in which the reformed industry is a significant fraction of the local economy. The strategy of deregulation and privatisation of the electricity generation and distribution is discussed from the perspective of the State of Victoria as a whole and from the point of view of the region where the industry is predominantly located. General equilibrium approach to regional economics is used to design a simple model. Substantial deterioration of a regional economy (in terms of the reduction of local employment and purchasing power) is considered as an undesirable result of any reforming policy which is been undertaken on the State or federal level. Therefore, the ultimate goal of this modelling exercise would be to find out the conditions that require to apply temporary governmental regulatory measures to such a disadvantageous region in order to compensate negative consequences of the deregulation of an industry.

description: Management systems and standards have become a key part of the organisation's lifeline and a prerequisite for survival in the twenty first century. Systems for quality (which can also include product and process based individual systems), environmental and occupational health and safety (OHS) now form the three main pillars of the organisation, the fourth one being financial accounting. In light of the increasing pressure and demands from different stakeholders, it is becoming necessary for the organisations to adopt the different systems/standards. However, to achieve the benefits from the implementation and subsequently maintenance of these systems it is only a practical and logical step that the existing management systems/standards be integrated into a single system. This paper presents the experiences of three Australian based organisations that have successfully undertaken the integration of their management systems/standards. Data for this paper was collected through in-depth interviews conducted with the managers responsible for quality, environment and OHS systems. The paper discusses the drivers, benefits and impediments experienced by these organisations during the integration process and the lessons learnt. These lessons would act as a set of recommendations for other organisations contemplating to integrate their systems/standards.

description: This Insight tackles a recent judgment of the CJEU, Toufik Lounes (Court of Justice, judgment of 14 November 2017, case C-165/16, Toufik Lounes v. Secretary of State for the Home Department), where the CJEU was asked to rule on the case of a EU national, Ms García Omazábal, who had exercised her free movement rights, later acquiring the citizenship of the host State while also retaining her nationality of origin. The Court has further investigated the scope ratione personae of Directive 2004/38 and Art. 21, para. 1, TFEU, so to clarify whether, in the scenario above, the EU national and her third-country national spouse could still be considered "beneficiaries" under Directive 2004/38. The CJEU answered as follows: while Directive 2004/38 is not applicable in the situation above, Art. 21, para. 1, TFEU shall instead be applied so as to prevent the EU national holding a dual citizenship to be treated less favourably than a EU national having the citizenship of his country of origin only, and therefore having the EU national's right to family life unreasonably disrupted. Against this backdrop, the Insight first highlights the merits of the decision, by also investigating its positive effects within the Brexit process. Secondly, it discloses a main shortcoming that is likely to weaken the overall protection granted to EU citizens, i.e. the CJEU choice to disregard the connection between the provisions on the EU citizenship and the respect of fundamental rights.

description: Following up the empirical works of Jones (1995a,b) that reject two classes of the major endogenous growth models: the AK models and R&D based models, the paper tests the third class of endogenous growth models that generate endogenous evolution in division of labor against empirical data. It is shown that this class of endogenous growth models not only avoid scale effect, but also accommodate both convergence and divergence phenomena. One of the hypotheses generated by this class of endogenous growth models is that the divergence phenomenon takes place first between each pair of economies that enter the take off stage at different points in time, then the convergence phenomenon follows. This implies that the difference in per capita real income between the two economies is an inverse U shape curve. The empirical data strongly support the hypothesis.

Managing Ethnic Diversity in a Japanese Joint Venture in Malaysia
Creators: name: Smith, Wendy A.

description: This paper uses data from a longitudinal study of a Japanese joint venture in Malaysia to examine the management of ethnic diversity, especially in the context of religion. The transfer of Japanese style management to a multi-ethnic workforce was a complex exercise for the Japanese managers themselves, who were largely untrained and inexperienced in international management contexts. Due to the Malaysian government's New Economic Policy of 1971-1990, which emphasised development through export-oriented manufacturing, the Malaysian employees in the venture were largely first generation urban working class or new middle class, a situation in which they had not only to adapt to Japanese work ethics but also to the experience of employment in a modern organization. Malaysian society was subjected to a process of rapid social change under the NEP but traditional values and practices remained from the peasant and pre-industrial cultural base of its three ethnic groups, the Malays, Malaysian Chinese and Indians. I examine this complex reality by focusing on the experience of employment in the venture for the Malay Muslims, and juxtapose their system of Islamic values and work ethics with the Japanese values arising from the Japanese Management System which was substantially transferred to the venture.

Outsourcing in electricity generation and union responses

description: Australia has witnessed a rapid growth in outsourcing over the last decade with the public sector being the clear leader in these initiatives. Explanations of the rise of outsourcing tend to emphasise economic and human resources management factors and neglect the political dimension. Here it is argued that outsourcing forms part of a broader neo-liberal agenda which includes labour market deregulation and public sector reform. This can be seen clearly from the experience of the state of Victoria and in particular its electricity generation industry where a carefully implemented program of downsizing and outsourcing played upon existing divisions in the workforce eliciting a pragmatic, survival oriented response from the major unions involved in the outsourcing of the maintenance of coal mining and electricity generation plant.

description: We quantify the impacts climate change on New Zealand’s agriculture. We implement the Ricardian approach of land climate-pricing using QV data. We explore the nonlinear relationship between climate variables and farmland values while controlling for socio-economic and topographical-geographical features. Furthermore, we measure the persistence of drought using autoregressive (AR) model. We simulate future farmland values under climate change. Preliminary results show the heterogeneity in which rural land values are affected by climate depending on the land use category. The rural land value decreases with summer temperature among all land uses, while it increases with spring temperature. The cumulative impacts of soil moisture deficit in summer reduce farmland values.
Ageing and the Cost of Health Services

description: There have been a number of estimates of the impact of ageing upon the cost of health services in Australia. The broad methodology adopted has been similar in each of these and similar to the methods used in other countries. Current or projected expenditures for each age sex cohort are multiplied by the projected population in each cohort at future points in time and summed to obtain total expenditure. Two of these studies have recently made allowance for the `Fuch's effect', viz, the hypothesis that illness and expenditure should be estimated, not from the age of a cohort, but from the number of years to expected death. The chief theme in the present paper is that this methodology, is unreliable and misleading. The argument is supported by the analysis of three sets of data, viz, historical population and expenditure data, Australian cross sectional population and GP utilisation data for 1996 and expenditure and population data for 21 OECD countries for 1975, 1985 and 1995. In each case the relationship between age sex predicted and actual expenditure is examined. The conclusion is that expenditures are not driven mechanistically by demographic factors. This, in turn, implies that future health care costs will be determined by other factors. Some will be responsive to policy but not others. In the latter category is the impact of new technology. The former include incentive structure of the health sector and the supply of physical and human resources.
Rethinking the legal needs of wild animal welfare in Australia
Creators: name: Fish, Misty
Publisher: name: Charles Darwin University
Year: 2019

description: This thesis examines the state of legislative and regulatory wild animal protection in Australia. It contends that the legislative and regulatory welfare protections are inadequate, as evidenced through the lack of enforcement of animal cruelty offences and offences against the environment that indirectly cause harm to wild animals. The thesis’ central argument is that welfare protections for wild animals could be strengthened by including animal welfare considerations in legislation aimed at protecting the environment. The thesis reviews human population impacts on change in biological diversity which is subsequently impacting on wild animals. It explores the impact of human-induced activities on changes to the environment and how this can influence rethinking protections for wild animals. The philosophical underpinnings of the current Australian legislative and regulatory frameworks applicable to animal law are also explored. As the central argument incorporates wild animal welfare protections in environmental law, the thesis also explores the international legal and regulatory frameworks applicable to animal law and examines the incorporation of international conventions and agreements in Australia. It also includes an examination of relevant case law. The Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cth) is specifically explored to understand whether changes to the Act to include protections for wild animal welfare might be a feasible strategy. The thesis critically examines selected animal and environmental laws to assess whether those laws are working protectively for wild animal welfare, namely, the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Act 1979 (NSW), the Animal Care and Protection Act 2001 (Qld) and the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (Cth), in order to specifically identify gaps which prevents them working protectively for wild animal welfare. In conclusion, the thesis proposes that stronger protections are possible through enhanced enforcement of the current law and by clearer identification of wild animals in anti-cruelty laws. By rethinking the legal needs of wild animal welfare, changes can be made that would result in stronger legal protections for wild animals.
