Accounting for Infrastructure Regulation

This volume draws on the knowledge of many regulators and utilities analysts around the world. Some of these experts are colleagues; others have provided work that we have used without benefit of collaboration. Regulatory accounting is a bur- geoning field of endeavor, and regulators are increasingly establishing and publishing regulatory accounting requirements and standards. Awareness of and …

RESEARCH IN GOVERNMENTAL AND NONPROFIT ACCOUNTING VOLUME 11

We present a review of the governmental capital markets research that has been conducted since Ingram et al. (1987). The review indicates that much of the research conducted in the last fifteen years involves the new issue bond market. Increased attention is also given to research in the secondary market. However, much of the secondary market research fails to examine the specific relationshi…

Global and National Macroeconometric Modelling

National and global macro econometric modelling has had a long and venerable history in the UK, with important implications for macroeconomic policy in general and monetary policy in particular. It is an activity that involves sustained research input of several investigators with a variety of skills. The present work is not an exception and its completion has required the enthusiasm and commit…

OECD Principles for Integrity in Public Procurement

Governments and state-owned enterprises purchase a wide variety of goods, services and public works from the private sector, from basic computer equipment to the construction of roads. Public procurement is a key economic activity of governments that represents a significant percentage of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) generating huge financial flows, estimated on average at 10-15% of GD…

Procurement, Preservation and Allocation of Vascularized Organs

Patients developing end stage renal disease can be treated by haemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis or transplantation. Kidney transplantation is now generally accepted as the primary therapy for chronic renal failure in most patients, with the exception of those who cannot tolerate immunosuppressive treatment or transplant surgery [1]. Many reasons justify the use of kidneys from living do…

During spring 2002, SAF/AQC developed a Procurement Transformation Strategy that outlines a roadmap for changing the Air Force’s procurement policies, processes, personnel, and related technologies t…

Logistic Core Operations with SAP

The most imperative challenge facing a number of managers in recent years has been to regain lost market share and secure new competitive advantages. The impetus for this trend continues to be the ubiquitous tendency toward globalization and the ensuing intensification of international competition. Customer orientation, lean management and re-engineering are the buzzwords that characterize …

Lean Supply Chain Management

With any new work, the question that always has to be answered is—why? Why a new book on supply chain management and procurement? Why another book about lean systems? Why should we care? Is there anything more important that we can learn from the concept of lean supply chain management? Why a new book on supply chain management? The answer is simply because the works that exist tend to tr…

Managing the Politics of Reform

After decades of research, discussion, and debate, economists have finally acknowledged the importance, if not the primacy, of institutions as the bedrock of sustained growth and development. While policies can make a difference, recent econometric studies indicate that much will depend on the institutions that govern a country (Rodrik, Subramanian, and Trebbi 2002). Institutions, in this c…

Advances in Monetary Policy and Macroeconomics

In September 2005 we organized a conference at the University of Cassino, Italy, the aim of which was to explore ‘The Keynesian Legacy in Macro- economic Modelling’. In the postwar period, macroeconomic modelling of developed economies was mainly rooted in Keynesian theory up to the 1970s, when the failure of applied models to deal with stagflation led to a shift in economic theory towards …

Essays on Keynesian and Kaldorian Economics

Keynes’s General Theory of Employment, Interest and Money is undoubtedly regarded as the most important book on economics in the twentieth century, and this view would be shared, I think, by those who are wholly opposed to its teaching as well as by its adherents. Nearly 50 years after its appearance controversy still rages around its basic ideas and prescriptions, and I do not think that a…

It is largely an exercise in applied economics but the contributions of legal and management scholars and defence procurement and industry policy practitioners will also be apparent throughout. The book inevitably draws on themes and analysis treated in the defence economics literature and r…

Organ Procurement and Preservation

The concept and understanding of brain death have evolved significantly over the past few decades. This entity has become more recognized as our ability to provide prolonged cardiovascular support to brain injured patients became more sophisticated. In parallel with these developments, organ transplantation became a reality with wider applications resulting in significant increase in demand…

Handbook of Procurement

Procurement represents a very large fraction of total economic activity. The value of public procurement transactions in EU countries is about 16 percent of their GDP, while in the United States it is around 20 percent.1 In the private sector, the value of transactions is even larger and is steadily increasing, due to the current trend towards outsourcing all non-core business activities. …
