Financialisation and the Myth of Poverty Alleviation in Ghana: A Theoretical and Empirical Investigation of the Impact of Financial Liberalisation on Sustainable Economic Development
Creators: name: Frimpong, Francis
Publisher: name: University of East London
Year: 2020

description: The key theme of the thesis is that the rise of finance (financialisation) in Ghana has done very little, if any, in the fight against poverty. It has, however, resulted in rising financial profits, financialising poverty and stagnating the real sector of the economy. The thesis analyses financialisation in a low middle-income country. The focus is to investigate the impact of the exponential growth of finance on poverty alleviation in Ghana. It adopts a political economy approach to the changing behaviour/conduct of banks, industrial enterprises and households. Different strands of thoughts are reviewed in their understanding of financialisation. The theoretical framework is set vis-à-vis the empirical reality to assess whether the Ghanaian economy is financialised. It has been presented in this thesis that Ghana is indeed a financialised economy. However, it demonstrates several unique characteristics for different sectors because of its subordinate/inferior status shaped by imperial relations between states in the world market. The thesis found rising profit for the banking industry, but limited lending to industrial enterprises for long-term investment. However, what is unique in the context of Ghana is excessive lending to the government. The capital structure of firms in Ghana composed of mainly internal funds, as banks are reluctant to lend to firms due to the lucrative returns on less risky government securities. Banks then demand high collateral from firms together with high interests on capital. These obstructive factors, coupled with other contradictions in the political-economic arrangement, impact high cost on firms and therefore limit their ability to make enough profit. Consequently, firms employ less labour and are unable to pay higher wages, resulting in chronic poverty. This thesis presents that financial inclusion policy as a way of empowering the poor makes poverty a financial problem, which requires new credit relation- the financialisation of poverty. The thesis, therefore, argues that poverty should be viewed as a monetary and non-monetary problem.

A new clue to the transition mechanism between optical high and low states of the supersoft X-ray source RX J0513.9-6951, implied from the recurrent nova CI Aquilae 2000 outburst model

description: We have found a new clue to the transition mechanism between optical high/X-ray off and optical low/X-ray on states of the LMC supersoft X-ray source RX J0513.9-6951. A sharp ~1 mag drop is common to the CI Aql 2000 outburst. These drops are naturally attributed to cessation of optically thick winds on white dwarfs. A detailed light-curve analysis of CI Aql indicates that the size of a disk drastically shrinks when the wind stops. This causes ~1-2 mag drop in the optical light curve. In RX J0513.9-6951, the same mechanism reproduces sharp ~1 mag drop from optical high to low states. We predict this mechanism also works on the transition from low to high states. Interaction between the wind and the companion star attenuates the mass transfer and drives full cycles of low and high states.

description: The conventional method for construction of stable expression cell lines is mainly based on random integration. However, one drawback of random integration is that the target gene might be integrated into a heterochromatin region or an unstable region of chromatin, thus requiring multiple rounds of selection to obtain desirable expressing cell lines. Rational cell line construction can overcome this shortcoming by integrating transgenes specifically into a stable hot spot within the genome. As such, the discovery of novel effective hot spots becomes critical for this new method of cell line construction. Here we report a practical method for discovery of new stable hot spots through random integration of lentivirus. We describe the thorough study of a hot spot located at NW_006880285.1. The expression stability of this hot spot was verified by detecting Zsgreen1 reporter gene expression for over 50 passages. When cells were adapted to suspension culture, they continuously expressed the Zsgreen1 reporter gene. In addition, this cell suspension was able to stably express the reporter gene for an additional 50 passages. Another finding was that cells with the NGGH gene inserted into the same hot spot were also able to stably express respective protein over 50 passages. In summary, this research offers an easy and new method for researchers to identify stable hot spots within the Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) genome on their own, thus contributing to the development of site-specific integration studies in the future.

description: For several decades, scholars have studied cooperation and its outcomes in the educational context. Yet, we lack a complete understanding of how different instructional strategies impact the relationship between cooperation and learning. Here we studied how different instructional strategies led to different social configurations and their differences in individual academic performance in an experiment with 82 first-year students from an introductory physics course. Surprisingly, we found that students who actively seek out information on multiple peers are less likely to achieve good performance on well-structured (algebra-based) problems, whereas, for ill-structured (real-world-like) problems, this effect depended on the features of the learning environment. Besides, we observed that good performance on ill and well-structured problems responded to different social network configurations. In a highly clustered network (which contains redundant information), students performed well-structured problems better than ill-structured problems. In contrast, students with access to network structural holes (which enable access to more diverse information) performed ill-structured problems better than well-structured problems. Finally, ill-structured problems could promote creative thinking, provided that instructors guide the solving process and motivate students to engage in the appropriate cognitive demands these problems entail. Our results suggest that teaching and instructional strategies play an important role in cooperative learning; therefore, educators implementing cooperative learning methods have to accompany them with adequate instructional strategy.

description: An asymptotic interface equation for directional solidification near the absolute stabiliy limit is extended by a nonlocal term describing a shear flow parallel to the interface. In the long-wave limit considered, the flow acts destabilizing on a planar interface. Moreover, linear stability analysis suggests that the morphology diagram is modified by the flow near the onset of the Mullins-Sekerka instability. Via numerical analysis, the bifurcation structure of the system is shown to change. Besides the known hexagonal cells, structures consisting of stripes arise. Due to its symmetry-breaking properties, the flow term induces a lateral drift of the whole pattern, once the instability has become active. The drift velocity is measured numerically and described analytically in the framework of a linear analysis. At large flow strength, the linear description breaks down, which is accompanied by a transition to flow-dominated morphologies, described in a companion paper. Small and intermediate flows lead to increased order in the lattice structure of the pattern, facilitating the elimination of defects. Locally oscillating structures appear closer to the instability threshold with flow than without.

description: Serbian agriculture has a relatively poor performance through the decades. One of the main factors is inadequate financing system for such purposes in spite of numbered financial institutions and financial sources. Especially the financial resources and its lending have a poor performance in primary production of farmers and agricultural SME’s, much poorer than in other cases and economy sectors. Governing the research concerning state and perspectives of agriculture financing in Serbia, the authors has formulated the goal to examine and determine the main factors that are shaping financing sector performance and its involvement in the business of agriculture. Also the goal was to recognize the main tendencies in the sphere of financing the agriculture as well to point the connection and interrelation between financing sector and government efforts to put much more efforts to agricultural development and institution building concerning financing at the first place.

description: The critical temperature T_c of a superconductor/ferromagnet (SF) bilayer can exhibit nonmonotonic dependence on the thickness d_f of the F layer. SF systems have been studied for a long time; according to the experimental situation, the "dirty" limit is often considered which implies that the mean free path in the layers is the second smallest spatial scale after the Fermi wavelength. However, all calculations reported for the dirty limit were done with some additional assumptions, which can be violated in actual experiments. Therefore, we develop a general method (to be exact, two independent methods) for investigating T_c as a function of the bilayer's parameters in the dirty case. Comparing our theory with experiment, we obtain good agreement. In the general case, we observe three characteristic types of T_c(d_f) behavior: 1) nonmonotonic decay of T_c to a finite value exhibiting a minimum at particular d_f, 2) reentrant behavior, characterized by vanishing of T_c in a certain interval of d_f and finite values otherwise, 3) monotonic decay of T_c and vanishing at finite d_f. Qualitatively, the nonmonotonic behavior of T_c(d_f) is explained by the interference of quasiparticles in the F layer, which can be either constructive or destructive depending on the value of d_f.

description: (abridged) We present the X-ray analysis of a sample of 30 luminous quasars at $z\simeq3.0-3.3$ with deep XMM-Newton observations, selected from the SDSS-DR7 to be representative of the most luminous, intrinsically blue quasar population. By construction, the sample boasts a unique degree of homogeneity in terms of optical/UV properties. In the X-rays, only four sources are too faint for a detailed spectral analysis. Neglecting a radio-loud object, the other 25 quasars are, as a whole, the most X-ray luminous ever observed, with rest-frame 2-10 keV luminosities of $0.5-7\times10^{45}$ erg/s. The continuum photon index distribution, centred at $Γ\sim1.85$, is in excellent agreement with those in place at lower redshift, luminosity and black-hole mass, confirming the universal nature of the X-ray emission mechanism in quasars. Even so, when compared against the well-known $L_{\rm X}-L_{\rm UV}$ correlation, our quasars unexpectedly split into two distinct subsets. About 2/3 of the sources are clustered around the relation with a minimal scatter of 0.1 dex, while the remaining 1/3 appear to be X-ray underluminous by factors of $>3-10$. Such a large incidence ($\approx25\%$) of X-ray weakness has never been reported in radio-quiet, non-BAL quasar samples. Several factors could contribute to enhance the X-ray weakness fraction among our $z\simeq3$ blue quasars. However, the X-ray weak objects also have, on average, flatter spectra, with no clear evidence of absorption. Indeed, column densities in excess of a few $\times10^{22}$ cm$^{-2}$ can be ruled out for most of the sample. We suggest that, at least in some of our X-ray weak quasars, the corona might experience a radiatively inefficient phase due to the presence of a powerful accretion-disc wind, which substantially reduces the accretion rate through the inner disc and so the availability of seed photons for Compton up-scattering.

description: We report extensive simulation studies of phase behaviour in single component systems of particles interacting via a core-softened interparticle potential. Two recently proposed examples of such potentials are considered; one in which the hard core exhibits a shoulder, (Sadr-Lahijany et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 4895 (1998)) and the other in which the softening takes the form of a linear ramp (Jagla, Phys. Rev. E63, 061501 (2001)). Using a combination of state-of-the-art Monte Carlo methods, we obtain the gas, liquid and solid phase behaviour of the shoulder model in two dimensions. We then focus on the thermodynamic anomalies of the liquid phase, namely maxima in the density and compressibility as a function of temperature. Analysis of the finite-size behaviour of these maxima suggests that, rather than stemming from a metastable liquid-liquid critical point, as previously supposed, they are actually induced by the quasi-continuous nature of the two dimensional freezing transition. For the ramp model in three dimensions, we confirm the existence of a stable liquid-liquid ("second") critical point occurring at higher pressure and lower temperature than the liquid-gas critical point. Both these critical points and portions of their associated coexistence curves are located to high precision. In contrast to the shoulder model, the observed thermodynamic anomalies of this model are found to be authentic, i.e. they are not engendered by an incipient new phase. We trace the locus of density and compressibility maxima, the former of which appears to converge on the second critical point.

description: For many purposes, a three-dimensional foliation of spacetime is more advantageous to understanding its light cone structure. We derive the equations describing such foliations for the Kerr geometry with non-zero cosmological constant, and show that they reduce to null hypersurfaces in vacuum (anti-)de Sitter spacetime in the limit of zero mass. Furthermore, we find that these null hypersurfaces are free of caustics everywhere for $r>0$. Our construction has applications in numerical studies of rotating black holes, and in defining Kruskal coordinates for rotating black holes with non-zero cosmological constant.

Financialisation, Profitability and the Rise of Household Debt in the United Kingdom, 1971 - 2015
Creators: name: Alele, Oluwaseun
Publisher: name: University of East London
Year: 2020

description: Over the last fifty year, the trajectory of household debt has undergone several transformations in some jurisdictions, especially in advanced capitalist countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom, where household debt has risen to historically high levels. This phenomenon appeared in tandem with the end of Fordist salaries and the unresolved crisis of over-accumulation, leading to massive losses of profitability in manufacturing. The central argument put forth in this thesis is that the rise of household debt has not been a spontaneous balancing act of the markets in general, but a concrete political strategy of capital to restore the collapsing rate of profit in the real economy by way of financial speculation, especially household debt speculation. In this context, the study examines, in a historically and theoretically informed manner, the unequal relationship of capital-labour relations and how this has intensified since the collapse of the Bretton Woods system in 1971. This period saw the liberalisation of the exchange rate and credit was unleashed, empowering financial capital at the expense of labour, thereby placing financial services and banks at the centre of national and global political economies. The analysis provides both a concrete historical and contemporary perspective into underlying factors, causes and consequences that surround the growth of household debt in the United Kingdom and the fictitious levels of debt-led economic growth experienced, not just in the United Kingdom, but in many other countries in the world. Lastly, the empirical analysis into the rise of household debt reveals that the housing market and the financial market have often been identified to be the causal agents at the root of most financial crises. The ARDL method was employed to investigate the presence of cointegrating relationships between the individual regressor. The evidence confirms that declining rate of profit, end of high Fordist wages and house price movements contributed significantly to the rise of household debt in the United Kingdom. The operation of financial institutions to extract rent and profits from over-indebted households, especially in the 1990s and 2000s, eventually blew up during the global financial crisis of 2007-08, the consequences of which are felt to the present day.

description: We show that the Hawking--Bekenstein entropy formula is modified by a factor of $8/3$ if one also considers a work term in the 1st law of thermodynamics by a pressure stemming from the Hawking radiation. We give an intuitive definition for the corresponding thermodynamical volume by the implicit definition $ε=Mc^2/V$, which is the average energy density of the Hawking radiation. This volume scales as $V \sim M^5$, agreeing with other suggestions. As a result the corresponding Smarr relation describes an extensive entropy and a stable effective equation of state $S(E,V)\sim E^{3/4}V^{1/4}$. These results pertain for charged and rotating Kerr-Newman black holes.

description: The potential to reduce the sectors (livestock) emissions is large. Technologies practices that help reduce emissions exist but are not widely used. The adoption and use of best practices and technologies by the bulk of the world’s producers can result in significant reductions in emissions. The FAO report indicated that the emissions could be reduced by between 18 and 30 percent (or 1,8 to 1,1 gigatones CO2 – eq), if producers in a given system, region and climate adopted the practices currently applied by the 10 to 25 percent of producers with the lowest emission intensity. Most of the technologies and practices that mitigate emissions also improve productivity and can contribute to food security and poverty alleviation as the planet needs to feed a growing population. Under the conditions of the limited financial resources for the purpose of the implementation of government programs to minimize the harmful farm animal waste, such funds can be raised by participating in the emissions market.

description: This paper presents a new method to track both the face pose and the face animation with a monocular camera. The approach is based on the 3D face model CANDIDE and on the SIFT (Scale Invariant Feature Transform) descriptors, extracted around a few given landmarks (26 selected vertices of CANDIDE model) with a Bayesian approach. The training phase is performed on a synthetic database generated from the first video frame. At each current frame, the face pose and animation parameters are estimated via a Bayesian approach, with a Gaussian prior and a Gaussian likelihood function whose the mean and the covariance matrix eigenvalues are updated from the previous frame using eigen decomposition. Numerical results on pose estimation and landmark locations are reported using the Boston University Face Tracking (BUFT) database and Talking Face video. They show that our approach, compared to six other published algorithms, provides a very good compromise and presents a promising perspective due to the good results in terms of landmark localization.

description: The selection of consultants should be paid special attention, because in Serbia, or its agro-sector, the awareness of the criteria for the selection of consultancy services is not sufficiently raised. The research itself is based on the assumption of manager experience and knowledge gained by reading expert books, greeted with scepticism. Thus, the relevance of certain criteria for the consultant selection is in the form of a hypothesis, with the aim to determine the real situation in this field. Determination of consultant selection basic factors in Serbia is imposed by the law of nature. The process of selecting a consultant starts with defining the requirement of the consultancy task and criteria for the degree of performance of the task. This process usually leads to the reference list that a consultant is supposed to have.

description: Archetypal analysis represents each individual member of a set of data vectors as a mixture (a constrained linear combination) of the pure types or archetypes of the data set. The archetypes are themselves required to be mixtures of the data vectors. Archetypal analysis may be particularly useful in analysing data sets comprising galaxy spectra, since each spectrum is, presumably, a superposition of the emission from the various stellar populations, nebular emissions and nuclear activity making up that galaxy, and each of these emission sources corresponds to a potential archetype of the entire data set. We demonstrate archetypal analysis using sets of composite synthetic galaxy spectra, showing that the method promises to be an effective and efficient way to classify spectra. We show that archetypal analysis is robust in the presence of various types of noise.

description: We describe the anomalous phase transition of the emergence of the giant connected component in scale-free networks growing under mechanism of preferential linking. We obtain exact results for the size of the giant connected component and the distribution of vertices among connected components. We show that all the derivatives of the giant connected component size $S$ over the rate $b$ of the emergence of new edges are zero at the percolation threshold $b_c$, and $S \propto \exp\{-d(γ)(b-b_c)^{-1/2}\}$, where the coefficient $d$ is a function of the degree distribution exponent $γ$. In the entire phase without the giant component, these networks are in a ``critical state'': the probability ${\cal P}(k)$ that a vertex belongs to a connected component of a size $k$ is of a power-law form. At the phase transition point, ${\cal P}(k) \sim 1/(k\ln k)^2$. In the phase with the giant component, ${\cal P}(k)$ has an exponential cutoff at $k_c \propto 1/S$. In the simplest particular case, we present exact results for growing exponential networks.

Pressure-Induced Magnetism and Hidden Order in URu_2Si_2

description: We discuss the discovery of pressure-induced antiferromagnetism in URu_2Si_2, in the context of neutron, NMR and μSR results. The identification of a critical pressure separating mean-field and Ising phase transitions leads us to propose that the system lies close to a bicritical point associated with magnetic and (non-magnetic) hidden order. We conclude that the recent observation of an isotropic, field-independent component in the silicon NMR line-width implies that the hidden order parameter breaks time-reversal invariance and present a preliminary discussion of the underlying nature of the hidden order parameter.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: To explore the potent anti-inflammatory and anti-tuberculosis potential of novel trimetallic Au-Pt-Cu nanofluids. We employed BSA assay for anti-inflammatory assessment and tested anti-tuberculosis activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. Advanced molecular docking, dynamics, and DFT analyses were conducted to reveal interaction mechanisms and electronic properties. The nanofluids demonstrated impressive IC50 values (15.88 ± 0.09 μM and 0.54 ± 0.02 μg/ml), with strong binding affinities and stable interactions confirmed via molecular simulations. Favorable ADMET profiling highlights their promise as innovative therapeutic agents.

A comparison of cosmological filaments catalogues

description: In this work we compare three catalogues of cosmological filaments identified in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey by means of different algorithms by Tempel et al., Pereyra et al., and Martínez et al. We analyse how different identification techniques determine differences in the filament statistical properties: length, elongation, redshift distribution, and abundance. We find that the statistical properties of the filaments strongly depend on the identification algorithm. We use a volume limited sample of galaxies to characterise other properties of filaments such as: galaxy overdensity, luminosity function of galaxies, mean galaxy luminosity, filament luminosity, and the overdensity profile of galaxies around filaments. In general, we find that these properties primarily depended on filament length. Shorter filaments have larger overdensities, are more populated by red galaxies, and have better defined galaxy overdensity profiles, than longer filaments. Concluding that galaxies belonging to filaments have characteristic signatures depending on the identification algorithm used.

description: We have investigated the Faraday rotation of in-plane magnetized bismuth - substituted ferrite garnet films grown by liquid phase epitaxy on (100) oriented gadolinium gallium garnet substrates. The Faraday spectra were measured for photon energies between 1.7 - 2.6 eV. To interprete the spectra, we use a model based on two electric dipole transitions, one tetrahedral and one octahedral. Furthermore, the Faraday rotation sensitivity was measured at 2.3 eV, and found to be in good agreement with the theoretical predicitions. In particular, we find that the sensitivity increases linearly with the bismuth content and nonlinearly with the gallium content.

description: The aim of this paper is to highlight the important issues of the budget deficit and public debt and their impact on economic growth. This paper considers the twin deficit hypothesis, which argues that there is a strong correlation between the current account deficit for an economy and government budget deficits. In the last ten years, Serbia is faced with a situation of simultaneous fiscal deficit and current account deficit. However, the growth of gross domestic product and the maturity of the debt obligation indicate that the debt burden increases, the weak development of the economy and the debt, and the power of the state and threatened to open debt crisis, the emergence of foreign insolvency. To explore the effects of budget deficits and public debt in macroeconomic relations and aggregates applied the methods of descriptive statistics, and used the official data of the relevant national and international institutions. The main results of the analysis indicate a crisis of public finances, which are accumulated for many years, with a growing budget deficit and the dominant external financing of the budget deficit.
