    Abstract: Abstract: This paper presents the experiences and the lessons learned by 22 partner countries in Africa, Latin America and Asia related to the application of the Methodology for the Assessment of National Procurement Systems of the OECD/DAC Joint Venture on Procurement. The Methodology was developed and approved for field testing in 2006 as an input for implementing the Paris Declaration agenda and to assist in strengthening country procurement systems. It is the result of the joint efforts of multilateral and bilateral development partners and of partner countries from around the world. These experiences and lessons represent some early results achieved by a group of volunteer partner governments working in collaboration with national stakeholders from civil society, the private sector, the media, elected members of parliament and with their international development partners. The present document is limited to sharing experiences in using the Methodology. Country examples from the pilot exercises and from other applications are used as case studies. A mapping of various country experiences in using the Methodology is provided in Annex A. The present document seeks to provide useful background information drawn from various available sources.

    Abstract: This report reviews the achievements of the Korean 3-Year Market Reform Road Map. This assessment is carried out in light of the OECD’s previous recommendations to shift KFTC priorities and resources toward core competition problems related to efficiency goals and away from its historic focus on conglomerate financial structure and governance; the need for further improvements in investigative powers and a clearer rule against hard-core cartels; implementation of recommendations to repeal exemptions for “small” business and exclusions of professional services and co-ordination with sectoral regulators about competition problems; and recent institutional changes to join the KFTC with the system for applying consumer protection law. This report was the basis for a monitoring review in the October 2006 session of the Competition Committee.

    Abstract: Climate change is a major threat to sustainable growth and development in Africa, and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals. Africa is particularly vulnerable to climate change because of its overdependence on rain-fed agriculture, compounded by factors such as widespread poverty and weak capacity. The main longer-term impacts include: changing rainfall patterns affecting agriculture and reducing food security; worsening water security; decreasing fish resources in large lakes due to rising temperature; shifting vectorborne diseases; rising sea level affecting low-lying coastal areas with large populations; and rising water stress.

    Abstract: An entrepreneur who decides to found a firm and to hire employees has to tackle two central problems: their employees' coordination and motivation. Drawing on findings from cognitive, social and organizational psychology, this book sheds new light on the relevance of bounded rationality and social learning in the process of leadership. Silke Scheer bridges some of the missing links that can be identified within the theory of cognitive leadership and demonstrates how its scope can be broadened by investigating group level processes, and how they can have an impact on the socialization of newcomers

    Abstract: Corporate sanctions rarely are sufficiently high to be an optimal deterrent against cartels. Sanctions against natural persons can thus complement them. There is no systematic evidence proving the deterrent effects of sanctions on individuals, and/or assessing whether such sanctions can be justified. There is a trend among countries to accept as self-evident that individual sanctions, including imprisonment, can be a useful part of effective anti-cartel enforcement. If a country provides for individual sanctions, a strong argument can be made that relatively short prison sentences are the most cost effective deterrent. However, there are also reasons why countries may provide for longer prison sentences, most importantly that only longer statutory sentences adequately express a society’s condemnation of hard-core cartels. In addition to increasing levels of deterrence, sanctions against individuals can be a powerful incentive for individuals to reveal information about existing cartels and to cooperate in investigations. International law does not recognise the principle of double jeopardy that would prevent authorities in different countries from prosecuting the same person for participation in the same cartel. Nevertheless, where cartels are investigated in a multi-jurisdictional context, jurisdictions may consider arrangements to ensure that only one of them prosecutes an individual.

    Abstract: Employment and social protection are two critical avenues towards achieving pro-poor growth and the Millennium Development Goals. In developing countries the majority of poor people work, but employment conditions are poor, productivity is low and incomes inadequate. Policies that improve conditions in the informal economy, increase the productivity and employability of poor people and improve the enabling environment for local entrepreneurship will lead to better employment outcomes. Social protection enables households to invest in productive activities and human capital, which raises their productivity and incomes. Social protection can be affordable, including for low-income countries, and efficiently tackles poverty through improved health, increased school attendance and less hunger and malnutrition. There is growing demand in developing countries for more public action on social protection and employment. To help donors respond, at its High Level Meeting on 27-28 May 2009 the DAC endorsed the following policy statement which encourages donors to provide adequate, long-term and predictable financial assistance to underpin developing countries’ efforts to build social protection systems and to make employment and decent work a key objective of development co-operation. In addition, through its Network on Poverty Reduction (POVNET), the DAC has developed policy guidance notes for donors on employment and social protection.

    Abstract: This paper aims to fill a significant gap and bring greater clarity to the policy discussion about state building. It offers important insights into the causes and features of fragility, and how states can reach stability and resilience over time. The report highlights that state building needs to be seen in the context of state formation and state-society relations. It provides practical recommendations for donors that wish to support national state-building processes.

    Abstract: Circumstantial evidence is employed in cartel cases in all countries. The better practice is to use circumstantial evidence holistically, giving it cumulative effect, rather than on an item-by-item basis. Complicating the use of circumstantial evidence are provisions in national competition laws that variously define the nature of agreements that are subject to the law. There are two general types of circumstantial evidence: communication evidence and economic evidence. Of the two, communication evidence is considered to be the more important. Economic evidence is almost always ambiguous. It could be consistent with either agreement or independent action. Therefore it requires careful analysis. National treatment of cartels, such as whether they are prosecuted as crimes or as administrative violations, can affect the burden of proof that applies to the cases, and hence the use of circumstantial evidence. It can be difficult to convince courts to accept circumstantial evidence in cartel cases, especially where the potential liability for having violated the anti-cartel provisions of the competition law is high. There are circumstances in countries that are relatively new to anti-cartel enforcement that could affect the extent to which they rely on circumstantial evidence in their cases.

    Abstract: It is time to deliver for women and girls. Africa’s growth and development agenda can only succeed if the continent is able to draw on all its resources and talents, and if women are able to participate fully in economic, social and political life. This will require intensified efforts to eliminate discrimination and promote equal rights. The strong commitment which has been demonstrated by African governments needs to be complemented by strong support from the wider international community, within the framework of a clear allocation of responsibilities, and the clear mapping out of specific steps and measures.

    Abstract: More action is needed, by both Africa and the wider international community. Building peace and security is essential, both for economic development and for poverty reduction. Leadership is being taken by Africa itself. The number of conflicts has fallen. But even so, one-fifth of the population of Africa still live in conflict zones. More action is needed both to strengthen and support Africa’s own efforts to bring peace to the continent, and to tackle the wider global drivers of conflict, including the illicit trade in small arms and light weapons, and the trade in conflict resources.

    Abstract: The book presents an overview of the general aspects of trade uncertainty, a central element in the analysis of economic diplomacy, illustrating that some instruments, such as sanctions (both positive and negative), increase trade uncertainty, whilst others--multilateral trade policy, for instance--aim to reduce this uncertainty. Commercial policy and bilateral economic diplomacy are explored, and economic sanctions analysed. An extensive review of the literature and empirical investigations of 161 sanctions and the commercial relationships of 37 countries provide topical and empirical perspectives on how international diplomacy may both be a cost and a benefit of the key drivers of productivity growth. Finally, policy conclusions are drawn, and a future research agenda presented

    Abstract: This fascinating book considers one of the most important problems in economics: the inception of modern economic development. There is at present no satisfactory explanation of the inception of modern economic development; an excessive focus on either pure theory or on unique histories limits the explanatory power. This book realises the need to integrate the two approaches, moving beyond the proximate causes of economic theory to review the role in an analytic narrative of significant ultimate causes - geography, risk environments, human capital, and institutions

    Abstract: Protectionism is back on the agenda as the financial crisis deepens. With calls for measures that purport to protect low income workers growing louder in the West, it is essential that the economic arguments in favour of free trade and globalization are re-emphasised. Philip Booth and Richard Wellings have brought together key papers originally published by the Institute of Economic Affairs, which, for the past 50 years, has been vigorously defending the case for free trade, and for globalization more generally. These important papers, which are not widely available, trace the development of the debate on the benefits of free trade during the last 50 years. The editors have written an authoritative introduction which offers a comprehensive overview of the arguments for and against globalization

    Abstract: This two-volume set brings together in one accessible reference source many of the key articles in the field of accounting and investment management which have been published over the past half century. The first volume investigates the role of accountants and analysts as financial intermediaries, the measurement of corporate earnings and profitability and equity valuation.

    Abstract: Building on Oliver Williamson's original analysis, the contributors introduce new ideas, different perspectives and provide tools for better understanding changes in the approach to regulation, the reform of public utilities, and the complex problems of governance. They draw largely upon a transaction cost approach, highlighting the challenges faced by major economic sectors and identifying critical flaws in prevailing views on regulation. Deeply rooted in sector analysis, the book conveys a central message of new institutional economics: that theory should be continuously confronted by facts, and reformed or revolutionized accordingly

    Abstract: Financial globalization has made monetary policy formulation in emerging market economies increasingly complicated. This timely set of studies looks at the turmoil in global financial markets, which coupled with volatile inflation poses serious challenges for central banks in these countries. Featuring papers from the research frontier and front-line policymakers in developing and emerging market economies, the book addresses questions such as 'What monetary policy framework is most suitable for these countries to confront the new challenges while they continue to open up to trade and financial flows', 'What are the linkages between monetary stability and financial stability?' and 'Is inflation targeting or a fixed exchange rate regime preferable for developing and emerging markets?'

    Abstract: Over the last few decades, there has been a great deal of management literature recommending the removal of firms' hierarchies and the empowerment of employees. Ivan Pongracic, Jr. examines these themes through the lense of the economic theory of the firm. Balancing the tendency for management literature to overlook basic costs and trade-offs of decentralization, and the rigidity of economics that hinders an appreciation for the real world phenomenon of decentralization, this book arrives at a realistic middle ground between the two extremes. The dance between hierarchy and employee empowerment exists in even the most hierarchical firms, and this book explores this often overlooked dynamic

    Abstract: Chrystal and Mizen have done researchers and students with an interest in central banking the great service of collecting the most commonly cited papers in this area into two volumes. I have no doubt that these volumes will find their way to the reading lists of many graduate and advanced undergraduate courses, as well as into the bookshelves of many monetary economists. These volumes collect many modern classics in the monetary policy area and deserve to be read and reread - as they undoubtedly will - by advanced students and established researchers alike.' - Stefan Gerlach, University of Frankfurt and Deutsche Bundesbank, Germany Monetary policy in the major industrial countries has largely been a success story in recent years. This two-volume set includes previously published papers by Nobel Laureates, central bankers and leading research economists. The key advances in recent thinking that underpin modern monetary policy and indicate some of the current controversies that remain are brought together in this timely publication. Some of these challenges will continue to dominate the thinking of scholars and practitioners for years to come. An authoritative introduction by the editors provides a fascinating guide to this important field

    Abstract: This three-volume set contains over seventy valuable references written by economists, psychologists and social scientists that examine the field of new behavioural economics. The articles demonstrate how new behavioural economics and decision sciences deal with different issues with almost the same response - to include a new taste in utility function. In his original introduction Professor Khalil investigates the strengths and weaknesses of the literature and provides an essential insight into this field of study

    Abstract: This path-breaking collection, edited by two leading scholars in the field, brings together seminal contributions from the burgeoning multidisciplinary literature on the globalization of retailing. In addition to focusing on the retail corporations and their expansionary strategies, it explores the multi-faceted impacts of retail globalization on host economies and profiles the store and sourcing dimensions of transnational retail activity. These volumes are of particular interest to scholars in management and business studies, economic geography, development studies and economics, and more generally to all social scientists interested in the transformative role of retailing within the global economy

    Abstract: Despite many examples of good practice, large weaknesses exist in many countries’ national career guidance services, according to extensive research conducted by the OECD, and by the Centre for the Development of Vocational Training and the European Training Foundation on behalf of the European Commission. Access is limited, particularly for adults. In addition, services often focus upon immediate decisions, and fail to develop career management skills. Training for those who provide services is frequently inappropriate, failing to reflect the full range of client needs or to take account of modern, more flexible delivery methods such as ICT. Services are poorly co-ordinated between different ministries, and between governments and other stakeholders. The evidence base is too weak to provide policy makers with useful data on outcomes, costs and benefits. These gaps stand in the way of governments’ attempts to implement lifelong learning, active employability and social equity policies. This joint publication by the OECD and the European Commission (staff working paper) gives policy makers practical tools to tackle these problems. In simple, non-technical language, the publication addresses a broad range of policy issues that are central to the effective delivery of career guidance services. These include: how to widen access to career guidance; ways of improving the quality of career information; ensuring that staff qualifications meet policy objectives; and improving strategic leadership. This publication is essential reading for all policy makers, especially those in education and labour, who are responsible for planning, managing and delivering career guidance services.

    Abstract: This Test Guideline describes an amphibian metamorphosis assay intended to screen substances which may interfere with the normal functioning of the hypothalamo-pituitary-thyroid axis. The assay was validated with the species Xenopus laevis, which is recommended for use in the Guideline. The assay uses three test chemical concentrations and the necessary controls, including a carrier control if necessary. The assay starts with tadpoles at the development stage 51 on the Nieuwkoop and Faber scale and is extended for a duration of 21 days. Four replicate test vessels are used for each treatment level and control(s). After 7 days of exposure, a sub-set of tadpoles from each treatment level is sampled for the measurement of the length of the hind-limb. At termination of 21-day exposure period, developmental stage, snout-to-vent length and hind limb length are measured on all remaining tadpoles. A sub-set of tadpoles from each treatment level is fixed (whole-body or dissected) for histopathology of the thyroid gland.

    Abstract: This Test Guideline describes an in vivo screening assay for fish reproduction where sexually mature male and spawning female fish are held together and exposed to a chemical during a limited part of their life-cycle (21 days). The short term reproduction assay was validated in the fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) and this is the recommended species. The assay is run with three test chemical concentrations and the necessary controls, including a carrier control if necessary. For the fathead minnow, four replicate test vessels are used for each treatment level and control(s). During the conduct of the assay, the egg production is measured quantitatively daily in each test vessel. At termination of the 21-day exposure period, two biomarker endpoints are measured in males and females separately, as indicators of endocrine activity of the test chemical; these endpoints are vitellogenin and secondary sexual characteristics. Gonads of both sexes are also preserved and histopathology may be evaluated to assess the reproductive fitness of the test animals and to add to the weight of evidence of other endpoints.

    Abstract: The purpose of this handbook is to raise the awareness level of tax examiners and auditors on money laundering. It provides guidance in identifying money laundering during the conduct of normal tax audits. It also describes the resources and tools that are available for effective detection and deterrence. While the handbook does not detail criminal investigation methods, it does describe the nature and context of money laundering activities so that tax examiners and auditors can better understand how their contribution can assist criminal investigators in countering money laundering. Tax administrations can adapt the handbook to suit their particular circumstances and to take into account the varying roles that tax administrations have in relation to reporting unusual or suspicious transactions, receiving suspicious transaction reports and investigating money laundering offences. To aid this adaptation key areas of the handbook have been highlighted for “Country Specific Insertions”. While the aim of this handbook is to raise the awareness of tax examiners and tax auditors about the possible implications of transactions or activities related to money laundering and tax crimes, the handbook is not meant to replace domestic policies and procedures.

    Keywords: Agriculture and Food ; Development
    Abstract: African agriculture is a sleeping giant. Agribusiness remains in its infancy in most sub-Saharan African countries. Many of them now pay higher prices for imported food products and struggle to keep inflationary pressures under control. Given the strong long-term prospect for world food prices, increasing the productivity of food crops becomes a top priority. It requires sizeable investments in irrigation, storage, transport infrastructure and logistics, as well as better access to markets for inputs (fertilizers, seeds, planting materials and credit). While successful contract-farming schemes exist for export crops, they remain rare for food crops. Greater involvement of the private sector in designing and implementing such food-crop commercialisation programmes could develop viable local food industries. Existing international financing facilities such as the Enhanced Private Sector Assistance (EPSA) for Africa should get full use. Whether Africa can unleash the potential of commercial agriculture in the coming decades also depends in no small part on the continuous and effective support of the international development community. The findings summarised in this volume can serve as building blocks for further international discussions on fostering agro-based private-sector development and lifting smallholders out of poverty.

    Abstract: Az állam, a kormány, a közigazgatás modernizálása, 21. századi követelményekhez való igazítása, tevékenységének az állandóan változó társadalmi, politikai, gazdasági, szociális feladatok megoldására való átalakítása minden állam—akár fejlett, akár kevésbé fejlett— egyik lefontosabb gondja. A magyar kormányok is programjaikba iktatták a kormányzat, a közigazgatás reformját, néhány lépést ebbe az irányba már meg is tettek. A korszer űsítés azonban nem vált széleskörűvé, s nem állítható az sem, hogy az életbeléptetett változások hatása átüt ő erejű lett volna. Az okokat keresve sok mindenre hivatkozhatnánk, most csak egyet említünk meg: a nemzetközi tapasztalatok, próbálkozások összefogott, értékelt ismeretének hiányát. Az OECD Párizsban székel ő központja sietett a kormányok segítségére, neves tudósok, egyetemi oktatók, elméleti és gyakorlati szakemberek közrem űködésével összeállítatta ezt a kötetet, amely, mint látni fogjuk az OECD tagországaiban folyó államszervezési, különösen a közigazgatás, kormányzás terén fellelhet ő gondokat, s ezek megoldására tett intézkedéseket dolgozza fel, elméleti igénnyel, és ugyanakkor a gyakorlati hasznosíthatóságra egyaránt tekintettel. Könyvünk felbecsülhetetlen segítséget nyújt az országunkban folyó modernizálódási törekvések megalapozásához is, egyben a közigazgatási szakemberképzés alapdokumentuma is lehet. A magyar kiadásnak sajátossága a már több országban lefordítva közreadott kötethez képest, hogy az alapm űvet kiegészíti öt olyan értékel ő bírálattal, amely az összehasonlító közigazgatás legrangosabb és legrégibb nemzetközi folyóiratában jelent meg, további tájékoztatást adva az általános tendenciák érvényesíthet őségének feltételeiről és korlátairól.

    Abstract: The objective of a long-term carcinogenicity study is to observe test animals for a major portion of their life span for the development of neoplastic lesions during or after exposure to various doses of a test substance by an appropriate route of administration. This Test Guideline is intended primarily for use with rats and mice, and for oral administration. Both sexes should be used. Each dose group and concurrent control group should contain at least 50 animals of each sex. At least three dose levels and a concurrent control should be used. Animals are dosed with the test substance daily (oral, dermal or inhalation administration) and the mode of exposure should be adjusted according to the toxicokinetic profile of the test substance. The duration of the study will normally be 24 months for rodents. For specific strains of mice, duration of 18 months may be more appropriate. Termination of the study should be considered when the number of survivors in the lower dose groups or the control group falls below 25 per cent. The results of these studies include: measurements (weighing, food consumption), and, at least, daily and detailed observations, as well as gross necropsy and histopathology.

    Abstract: En todos los países de la OCDE los ciudadanos demandan mayor transparencia y rendición de cuentas de sus gobernantes. Nuevas formas de participación surgen en tanto los ciudadanos buscan oportunidades para participar activamente en la definición de las políticas que afectan sus vidas. En respuesta, los gobiernos exploran nuevas maneras para informar e incluir a los ciudadanos y a las organizaciones de la sociedad civil en la elaboración de políticas. ¿Son estas nuevas formas de participación efectivas?, ¿apoyan o debilitan los mecanismos tradicionales la elaboración de políticas públicas en el marco de la democracia representativa?Este manual muestra la teoría y la práctica de la evaluación de la participación pública, recurre intensamente a las perspectivas y aportaciones de expertos gubernamentales, académicos y profesionales de la sociedad civil de los países de la OCDE. Asimismo, refuerza los hallazgos del informe previo titulado Citizens as Partners: Information, Consultation and Public Participation (2001), el cual destaca la ausencia de una evaluación sistémica de los esfuerzos que realiza el gobierno para comprometer a los ciudadanos y a la sociedad civil en el desarrollo de políticas.Este libro representa un primer intento por acabar con “la brecha de la evaluación”. Más que un manual técnico para evaluadores profesionales, este ofrece una guía estratégica para diseñadores de políticas y a funcionarios de gobierno de alto nivel responsables de encargar y usar las evaluaciones de la participación pública. Señala los temas claves a tomar en cuenta al evaluar la información, la consulta y participación pública, y ofrece ejemplos concretos recogidos de la práctica vigente en 8 países de la OCDE: Canadá, la República Checa, Finlandia, Italia, México, Noruega, Suecia y Reino Unido.

    Abstract: Crop field trials are conducted to determine the magnitude of the pesticide residue in or on raw agricultural commodities, including feed items, and should be designed to reflect pesticide use patterns that lead to the highest possible residues. Objectives of crop field trials are to: (1) quantify the expected range of residue(s) in crop commodities following treatment according to the proposed or established good agricultural practice; (2) determine, when appropriate, the rate of decline of the residue(s) of plant protection product(s) on commodities of interest; (3) determine residue values such as the “Supervised Trial Median Residue” and “Highest Residue” for conducting dietary risk assessment; and (4) derive maximum residue limits (MRLs). This Test Guideline requires one sample from treated plots at each sampling interval for crops that have eight or more crop field trials. The test substance(s) should be stored under appropriate conditions for the study duration and applied soon after preparation or mixing. Test substance applications should not be made in strong wind, during rain or when rainfall is expected shortly after application. For all applications, the application rate should be expressed in terms of amount of product and/or active ingredient per unit area. At the end of each crop field trial, the (stored) samples are analysed for residue level (expressed for example in mg/kg).

    Abstract: El gobierno electrónico está llamado a mejorar la operación de la administración pública y su relación con el público. La buena noticia es que las tecnologías de la información y las comunicaciones (TIC) ofrece una gama de herramientas para alcanzar la promesa del e-gobierno. La mala noticia es que dicha promesa aún no se ha visto reflejada en la realidad. A la fecha, el acercamiento al e-gobierno ha sido conducido con demasiada frecuencia por las soluciones que ofrecen las TIC en lugar de la demanda del usuario. Mientras que las soluciones TIC han sido efectivas para ofrecer servicios en línea, esto ha derivado en la proliferación de sitios web, portales y servicios electrónicos que son incompatibles, confusos y se traslapan… sin mencionar lo costoso que son.Más que agregar simplemente un canal para la distribución de un servicio, el e-gobierno puede mejorar los servicios que el gobierno ofrece. Pero sólo puede suceder como parte de una transformación general de los procesos, la estructura y la cultura del gobierno. Algunos gobiernos de la OCDE están aplicando ahora una nueva “lógica de e-gobierno” que permite a las agencias gubernamentales en red compartir recursos y entregar información y servicios orientados al usuario. Esto requiere un mejor entendimiento de lo que hace el gobierno y de cómo lo hace desde una perspectiva de gobierno entero.En seguimiento a un conjunto de discusiones entre funcionarios de alto nivel de e-gobierno celebradas por la OCDE en 2003 y 2004, este reporte se centra en los retos claves, que son de hecho, el reto medular de todas las administraciones públicas: cómo ser más ágiles, receptivas, constantes y transparentes.Este informe observa la nueva filosofía y la práctica en los países de la OCDE en cinco áreas diferentes.-E-gobierno orientado al usuario: haciendo los servicios electrónicos más receptivos a las necesidades de los ciudadanos y las empresas.-Distribución multicanal de servicios: mejorando los vínculos entre servicios tradicionales y servicios electrónicos para fomentar la innovación en los servicios y garantizar el acceso a todos los usuarios.-Enfoque de procesos de negocio habituales: identificando procesos habituales dentro de la administración para lograr una economía de escala, reduciendo la duplicación de esfuerzos y proporcionando servicios homogéneos.-Gobierno electrónico como caso de negocio: midiendo y demostrando los costes y beneficios de las inversiones en TIC para priorizar y gestionar mejor los proyectos de gobierno electrónico.-Coordinación: adaptando una perspectiva global para todas las iniciativas de gobierno electrónico y su gestión, a la vez que se tienen en cuenta las estructuras existentes y las culturas de las instituciones gubernamentales.

    Abstract: The aim of the present Bribery Awareness Handbook for Tax Examiners is to assist countries in making their tax examiners aware of the various bribery techniques used as well as giving them the tools to detect and identify bribes of foreign public officials and bribes to public officials in the domestic context. Countries may wish to use this Handbook and provide it to their tax officials in the context of their training programmes. Countries may also wish to use it to design their own Handbook that could enable them to incorporate their specific circumstances. For that purpose the Handbook identifies where countryspecific information can be added. The Handbook may also be used as a checklist during tax examinations.

    Abstract: This Test Guideline describes an in vivo screening assay for certain endocrine active substances where sexually mature male and spawning female fish are held together and exposed to a chemical during a limited part of their life-cycle (21 days). This assay covers the screening of oestrogenic and androgenic activity, and aromatase inhibition. The assay was validated on the fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas), the Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) and the zebrafish (Danio rerio); however zebrafish does not allow the detection of androgenic activity. At termination of the 21-day exposure period, depending on the species used, one or two biomarker endpoint(s) are measured in males and females as indicators of oestrogenic, aromatase inhibition or androgenic activity of the test chemical; these endpoints are vitellogenin and secondary sexual characteristics. Vitellogenin is measured in fathead minnow, Japanese medaka and zebrafish, whereas secondary sex characteristics are measured in fathead minnow and Japanese medaka only.

    Abstract: This Test Guideline is designed for assessing the effects of chemicals on the reproduction of collembolans in soil. The parthenogenetic Folsomia candida is the recommended species for use, but an alternative species such as sexually reproducing Folsomia fimetaria could also be used if they meet the validity criteria. This Guideline can be used for testing both water soluble and insoluble substances but it is not applicable to volatile ones. The Guideline aims to determine toxic effects of the test substance on adult mortality and reproductive output expressed as LCx and ECx respectively, or NOEC/LOEC value. The number of treatment concentrations varies depending on endpoints to be determined. For a combined approach to examine both the NOEC/LOEC and ECx, eight concentrations in a geometric series with four replicates for each concentration as well as eight control replicates should be used. In each test vessel, 10 juveniles F. candida (or 10 males and 10 females adults F. fimetaria) should be placed on 30 g of modified OECD artificial soil using a 5 % organic matter content. The duration of a definitive reproduction test is 4 weeks for F. candida or 3 weeks for F. fimetaria.

    Abstract: This method provides information on health hazard likely to arise from short-term exposure to a test article (gas, vapour or aerosol/particulate test article) by inhalation. The revised Test Guideline describes two studies: a traditional LC50 protocol and a Concentration x Time (C x t) protocol. It can be used to estimate a median lethal concentration (LC50), non-lethal threshold concentration (LC01) and slope, and to identify possible sex susceptibility. This Test Guideline enables a test article quantitative risk assessment and classification according to the Globally Harmonized System for the Classification and Labelling of Chemicals. In the traditional LC50 protocol, animals are exposed to one limit concentration or to three concentrations, at least, for a predetermined duration, generally of 4 hours. Usually 10 animals should be used for each concentration. In the C x T protocol, animals are exposed to one limit concentration or a series of concentrations over multiple time durations. Usually 2 animals per C x t interval are used. Animals (the preferred species is the rat) should be observed for at least 14 days. The study includes measurements (including weighing), daily and detailed observations, as well as gross necropsy.

    Abstract: Chile ha alcanzado un fuerte crecimiento económico en los últimos 20 años. Sin embargo, su economía depende de unos pocos sectores basados en recursos localizados en un pequeño número de regiones. El desempeño de las regiones chilenas es significativamente variado y las disparidades regionales en PIB per cápita son muy elevadas en comparación con las de los países de la OCDE. Hasta el momento, las regiones chilenas no han dado todo el uso potencial a sus activos, ni tampoco alcanzado su potencial de crecimiento.El presente informe recomienda desplazarse hacia un enfoque territorial del desarrollo chileno, de manera de adaptar de mejor forma la acción pública a las diferentes oportunidades y necesidades de los diversos territorios del país. Para mejorar su productividad, las regiones de Chile resultarían particularmente beneficiadas por políticas contextualizadas y orientadas hacia la innovación y el emprendimiento, y por mejoras en la educación y la capacitación.Al mismo tiempo, cambiar hacia políticas contextualizadas en Chile requerirá el fortalecimiento del marco institucional del nivel regional. Esto implicará aumentar las capacidades y la estructura de los gobiernos regionales, de manera que éstos se transformen en activos participantes de la discusión, la planificación y la coordinación de las políticas de desarrollo regional. Un manejo político multinivel y acuerdos de coordinación, junto a otros mecanismos como la formación de capacidades y el fortalecimiento de las modalidades de participación, ayudará a aumentar la legitimidad, coherencia y efectividad de una reforma en este sentido.Estudios Territoriales OCDE de Chile es parte de un programa más amplio de informes nacionales, emprendido por el Comité de Políticas de Desarrollo Territorial de la OCDE. El foco central de esta serie de Estudios Territoriales es el de proveer a los gobiernos nacionales de recomendaciones prácticas en materia de política. Los países previamente estudiados son Canadá, Corea, Finlandia, Francia, Hungría, Italia, Japón, Luxemburgo, México, Noruega, Polonia, Portugal, República Checa y Suiza.

    Abstract: The rapidly growing demand for highly skilled workers has led to a global competition for talent. While basic competencies are important for the absorption of new technologies, high-level skills are critical for the creation of new knowledge, technologies and innovation. The OECD’s Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) has taken an innovative approach to examining educational excellence, by directly assessing students’ knowledge, skills and attitudes and exploring how these relate to the characteristics of individual students, schools and education systems. Based on PISA survey results, this report examines who the highest performing students are, what the characteristics of the schools they attend are, to what extent they engage in science related activities outside of school, what their motivations and attitudes towards science are, and what their career intentions are.

    Keywords: Governance ; Industry and Services
    Abstract: La mayoría de los países de la OCDE han hecho una prioridad la elaboración de políticas para disminuir las cargas administrativas (reducir el papeleo). La burocracia es onerosa particularmente para las empresas pequeñas y puede inhibir el emprendimiento. Estos efectos son más costosos en los mercados mundiales, en donde la competitividad puede ser afectada por la eficiencia de la regulación local y el entorno administrativo. Pero también los ciudadanos y las grandes empresas se quejan de la elaboración de reportes solicitados que son innecesarios.¿Qué pueden hacer los gobiernos al respecto? Las estrategias incluyen establecer metas cuantitativas para reducir las cargas administrativas cuando se diseñan o modifican normativas existentes; codificación; mejorar la coordinación multi-nivel; y la introducción rápida de servicios de e-gobierno. Cada vez más los gobiernos asignan responsabilidad a una unidad administrativa central apoyados por grupos de trabajo y comités externos. Este acercamiento de “gobierno entero” representa un paso mayor en los años recientes incrustando la simplificación administrativa en todo el sistema de calidad normativo en el nivel nacional.

    Abstract: The Western Balkan region benefits from a cost-competitive labour force and geographic and cultural proximity to EU markets. However, cost competitiveness as a source of differentiation is not sustainable. Cost levels are increasing gradually in some sectors, reducing firms’ profitability. In order to sustain competitiveness, the Western Balkans needs to move up the value chain, from investing in automated technology to producing higher-quality goods and enhancing its human capital. This report examines the apparel manufacturing, automotive components and business process and technology outsourcing sectors, focusing on market competitiveness factors, industry key success factors and policy recommendations.
