    Abstract: Eurostat-OECD Manual on Business Demography Statistics This joint Eurostat and OECD publication provides a detailed description of the sources and methods used by OECD countries to compile the business demography indicators, such as birth death and survival rates of businesses, published by OECD in Structural and Demographic Business Statistics (SDBS). Furthermore, these measures are key components of the Entrepreneurship Indicators Programme developed jointly by the OECD and Eurostat. It is the first manual of its kind that provides for an internationally comparable framework for these increasingly important measures and also provides recommendations for the measurement of indicators not hitherto covered in the SDBS publication, such as indicators of high-growth enterprises and young high-growth enterprises (gazelles).

    Keywords: Dwellings Case studies Energy conservation ; Energy conservation Case studies Economic aspects ; Energy policy Case studies
    Abstract: Existing buildings are responsible for over 40% of the world’s total primary energy consumption. An impressive amount of energy could be saved simply by applying energy-efficient technologies. Yet, various market barriers inhibit energy efficiency improvements in existing buildings and result in energy savings that are significantly lower than potentials. This publication provides illustrations of policies and measures implemented in five IEA member countries and the European Union. Each case includes relevant background and contextual information, as well as a detailed evaluation of each policy according to five pre-defined criteria: relevance, effectiveness, flexibility, clarity and sustainability.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Essai n 314 : Essais de simulation pour évaluer la biodégradabilité de produits chimiques rejetés dans les eaux usées
    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: This Test Guideline describes a method to assess the extent and kinetics of primary and ultimate biodegradation of organic chemicals whose route of entry into the environment begins with their discharge to wastewater. It consists of five simulation tests in a) sewer systems, b) activated sludge, c) anaerobic digester sludge, d) treated effluent in the mixing zone of surface water, and e) untreated wastewater that is directly discharged to surface water. These tests are appropriate for chemicals released continuously or episodically to wastewater. The five test methods described are open batch systems or closed gas flow-through batch systems. The principle objectives are to i) measure the rate of primary biodegradation, ii) measure the rate of mineralization and iii ) follow the formation and decay of major transformation products when appropriate. Typically, a test chemical, radiolabelled (14C) in an appropriate position, is incubated with a representative environmental sample. Abiotic and biotic treatments are prepared for each test chemical and condition. The level of parent and degradation products is determined using chromatographic separation and radio-analytical detection methods.

    Abstract: This Convention offers tax authorities a legal framework for co-operating across borders without violating the sovereignty of other countries or the rights of taxpayers. Includes the text of the convention and commentaries. The Convention entered into force in 1995, and interest is growing, with almost half of the countries that have signed the Convention doing so in the last five years. This reflects the growing importance of exchange of information and other forms of co-operation between tax administrations in an increasingly borderless business and financial world. ThisTwentieth Anniversary edition includes the text of the convention as well as commentaries.

    Abstract: To match the global demand and supply of innovation, businesses increasingly internationalise their innovation activities while opening their innovation process by collaborating with external partners (e.g., suppliers, customers, universities). This book examines what drives these global innovation networks across different industries, how they are related to companies' overall strategies, whether they are accessible for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and what the consequences are.

    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: This Test Guideline describes a method to estimate the developmental toxicity of a test chemical to the dung dwelling life stages of dung-dependent dipteran species. Two test species can be used. The test chemical is mixed with bovine faeces, to which either 10 eggs of Scathophaga stercoraria or 10 larvae of Musca autumnalis are added. The test will be terminated 5 days after emergence of the last adult in the control (〉 18 days for S. stercoraria, 〉13 days for M. autumnalis). Then the possible impacts of the test chemical on the following measurement endpoints are assessed under controlled conditions: sex and total number of emerged adult flies, retardation of emergence indicated by the developmental rate and morphological change. Depending on the experimental design, the No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) or the Effect concentration for x percent effect (ECx) can be determined. This Guideline can be used for water soluble or insoluble substances, but is not applicable to volatile substances. If the toxicity of the chemical is unknown, five nominal test concentrations should be conducted. A positive control should be tested periodically. The test is considered valid if in the controls hatching of larvae is superior or equal to 70% of the number of introduced eggs, emergence of adults is superior or equal to 70% and superior or equal to 50% of the respectively hatched and introduced larvae and if the emergence of adult flies starts after 18 +- 2 days (S. stercoraria) or after 13 +- 2 days(M. autumnalis).

    Abstract: Encouraging Student Interest in Science and Technology Studies examines overall trends in higher education enrolments and the evolution of S&T compared with other disciplines. The results suggest that although absolute numbers of S&T students have been rising as access to higher levels of education expands in OECD economies, the relative share of S&T students among the overall student population has been falling, The report shows that encouraging interest in S&T studies requires action to tackle a host of issues inside and outside the education system, ranging from teacher training and curriculum design to improving the image of S&T careers. Numerous examples of national initiatives are used to complement the analyses to derive a set of practical recommendations.

    Series Statement: OECD Reviews of Tertiary Education
    Keywords: Education ; Mexico
    Abstract: In many OECD countries, tertiary education systems have experienced rapid growth over the last decade. With tertiary education increasingly seen as a fundamental pillar for economic growth, these systems must now address the pressures of a globalising economy and labour market. Within governance frameworks that encourage institutions, individually and collectively, to fulfil multiple missions, tertiary education systems must aim for the broad objectives of growth, full employment and social cohesion. In this context, the OECD launched a major review of tertiary education with the participation of 24 nations. The principal objective of the review is to assist countries in understanding how the organisation, management and delivery of tertiary education can help them achieve their economic and social goals. Mexico is one of 14 countries which opted to host a Country Review, in which a team of external reviewers carried out an in-depth analysis of tertiary education policies. This report includes: an overview of Mexico's tertiary education system; an account of trends and developments in tertiary education in Mexico; an analysis of the strengths and challenges in tertiary education in Mexico; and recommendations for future policy development. This review of tertiary education in Mexico forms part of the OECD Thematic Review of Tertiary Education, a project conducted between 2004 and 2008.

    Abstract: Although SMEs are a major source of growth and job creation, SMEs appear to be under-represented in the international economy relative to their contribution in national and local economies. Two original OECD-APEC surveys investigated how SME policy makers and SMEs perceive the barriers to SME access to international markets. This proceedings presents a report on the results of the surveys, a synthesis of the conference discussions, and the main outcome of the conference: the Athens Action Plan for Removing Barriers to SME Access to International Markets.

    Abstract: Transport sector policies already contribute to moderating greenhouse gas emissions from road vehicles. They are increasingly designed to contribute to overall societal targets to mitigate climate change. While abatement costs in transport are relatively high, there are plausible arguments in favour of further abatement in this sector. The empirical basis to decide upon combinations of fuel economy standards and fuel taxes, however, remains weak. This Round Table investigates the effectiveness and costs of various mitigation options in road transport, and discusses the distribution of abatement efforts across sectors of the economy.

    Abstract: Naturwissenschaftliche Kompetenzen für die Welt von morgen Sind die Schülerinnen und Schüler gut auf die Herausforderungen der Zukunft vorbereitet? Können sie analysieren, logisch denken und ihre Ideen effektiv kommunizieren? Haben sie die Interessen gefunden, die sie ihr ganzes Leben hindurch als produktive Mitglieder von Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft weiterverfolgen können? Die Internationale Schulleistungsstudie der OECD (PISA) sucht durch ihre Erhebungen der Kenntnisse und Fähigkeiten 15-jähriger Schülerinnen und Schüler in wichtigen Grundbildungsbereichen einige Antworten auf diese Fragen zu liefern. Die PISA-Erhebungen werden alle drei Jahre in den OECD-Mitgliedstaaten und einer Gruppe von Partnerländern und volkswirtschaften durchgeführt, die insgesamt nahezu 90% der Weltwirtschaft auf sich vereinen. PISA 2006: Naturwissenschaftliche Kompetenzen für die Welt von morgen stellt die Ergebnisse der jüngsten PISA-Erhebung vor, in deren Mittelpunkt die naturwissenschaftliche Grundbildung stand und die auch die Kenntnisse in Mathematik und Lesekompetenz evaluierte. Die Resultate werden in zwei Bänden dargestellt: Der erste bietet eine Analyse der Ergebnisse, der zweite Band (nur in Englisch und Französisch verfügbar) enthält die dieser Analyse zu Grunde liegenden Daten. Dieser Bericht liefert das umfassendste internationale Bild des heutigen Lernens im Bereich der Naturwissenschaften, wobei PISA 2006 nicht nur den Leistungsstand der Schülerinnen und Schüler erhob, sondern auch ihr Interesse an Naturwissenschaften und ihr Wissen um die Chancen, die der Besitz naturwissenschaftlicher Kompetenzen eröffnen kann, sowie das Lernumfeld untersuchte, das die Schulen im Bereich Naturwissenschaften zur Verfügung stellen. PISA ordnet die Leistungen der Schülerinnen und Schüler, der Schulen und der Länder in den Kontext ihres jeweiligen sozioökonomischen Hintergrunds ein und ermittelt wichtige bildungspolitische Maßnahmen und Praktiken, die mit Lernerfolg assoziiert sind. Indem gezeigt wird, dass einige Länder erfolgreich eine qualitativ hochwertige Bildung und eine ausgewogene Verteilung der Lernergebnisse miteinander verbinden können, gibt PISA ehrgeizige Ziele für andere Länder vor. Im Anschluss an die Erhebungen PISA 2000 und PISA 2003 vervollständigt PISA 2006 den ersten Erhebungszyklus in den drei Grundbildungsbereichen. PISA leitet gegenwärtig einen zweiten Zyklus von Erhebungen ein, der 2009 mit der Lesekompetenz als Schwerpunktbereich beginnen und 2012 (mathematische Grundbildung) sowie 2015 (naturwissenschaftliche Grundbildung) fortgesetzt wird. Die Internationale Schulleistungsstudie der OECD (PISA) PISA ist ein Kooperationsprojekt der 30 OECD-Mitgliedsländer sowie von etwa 30 Partnerländern und volkswirtschaften, in das wissenschaftliche Fachkenntnisse aus allen Teilnehmerländern und volkswirtschaften einfließen und bei dem übergreifende Entscheidungen auf der Basis gemeinsamer politischer Interessen von den Regierungen der Teilnehmerstaaten gemeinschaftlich getroffen werden. Zu seinen einzigartigen Merkmalen zählen: Grundbildungskonzept: PISA definiert jeden Erhebungsbereich (Naturwissenschaften, Lesekompetenz und Mathematik) nicht in erster Linie nach der Beherrschung der schulischen Curricula, sondern vielmehr nach den Kenntnissen und Fähigkeiten, die für eine aktive Teilhabe an der Gesellschaft benötigt werden. Langzeitverpflichtung: PISA ermöglicht es den Ländern, in regelmäßigen Abständen und auf der Basis eines vorhersehbaren Zeitplans ihre Fortschritte auf dem Weg zur Erreichung der grundlegenden Lernziele zu messen. Untersuchte Altersgruppe: Mit der Beurteilung der Leistungen 15-Jähriger, d.h. junger Menschen gegen Ende ihrer Pflichtschulzeit, liefert PISA wichtige Indikatoren für die globale Leistungsfähigkeit von Schulsystemen. Relevanz für das lebenslange Lernen: PISA beschränkt sich nicht auf die Beurteilung von Kenntnissen und Fähigkeiten der Schülerinnen und Schüler, sondern befragt diese auch nach ihrer Lernmotivation, ihrer Selbsteinschätzung und ihren Lernstrategien sowie ihren Zielen in Bezug auf künftige Studien und Berufsaussichten.

    Abstract: The implementation of biodiversity policies will often benefit different groups to a greater or lesser degree. For example, in establishing a property right to facilitate management of a biodiversity-related resource, people who previously had unrestricted use will be adversely affected. Combining analysis and a wealth of case studies, this book offers concepts and tools for addressing distributive issues in biodiversity policy. It will help policy makers put together strategies for anticipating distributive impacts across different groups; and for selecting processes and instruments that manage distributive impacts without compromising conservation and use objectives.

    Abstract: Governments intervene in the agricultural sector through policies that both support and shape agricultural production. This leads to two important outcomes. First, agriculture specific programmes intended to increase the welfare of farmers can become capitalised into asset values. Second, many policies, in particular regulatory ones, reduce asset mobility, resulting in reduced economic efficiency due a sub-optimal allocation of resources. This study focuses on the capitalisation of government support into land rents and prices. It assesses the consequences of inflated asset values, and suggests lessons for future policy making.

    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: This Test Guideline describes a method to assess the effects of chemical substances in soil on the reproductive output of the soil mite species Hypoaspis (Geolaelaps) aculeifer Canestrini (Acari: Laelapidae). It can be used for water soluble or insoluble substances, but not with volatile substances. Adult females of similar age are exposed to a range of concentrations of the test substance mixed into 20 g dry mass of artificial soil 28-35 days after the start of the egg laying period. Depending on the endpoint (ECx, NOEC or both), five to twelve concentrations should be tested. At least two to four replicates for each test concentrations and six to eight control replicates, of 10 animals each, are recommended. At 20¡ãC, the test lasts 14 days after introducing the females, which usually allows the control offspring to reach the deutonymph stage. The number of surviving females (mortality ¡Ü 20% for a valid test) and the number of juveniles per test vessel (at least 50 for a valid test) are determined. The fecundity of the mites exposed to the test substance is compared to that of controls in order to determine the ECx (e.g. EC10, EC50) or the No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC). Any observed differences between the behaviour and the morphology of the mites in the control and the treated vessels should be recorded.

    Keywords: Education ; Dominican Republic
    Abstract: Las reformas del sistema educativo, la formación y el desarrollo de los recursos humanos forman parte integrante de una economía de mercado. La República Dominicana realizó progresos en todas estas áreas desde que empezaron las reformas en 1990. El desafío para la Secretaría de Estado de Educación (SEE), la Secretaría de Estado de Educación Superior, Ciencia y Tecnología (SEECyT) y el Instituto Nacional de Formación Técnico Profesional (INFOTEP) consistió en promover y apoyar los cambios que corresponden a las necesidades tanto de la nueva economía como de la sociedad y a los intereses de todos los jóvenes y adultos, en un contexto de escasez de recursos financieros y humanos. Este libro ofrece un breve panorama de la problemática de la región y una historia de la educación en República Dominicana y describe su desarrollo en el país durante los últimos quince años. Presenta un análisis del sistema educativo, poniendo de relieve las direcciones clave tomadas para fortalecer las reformas a la luz de los desafíos afrontados por los funcionarios, las comunidades, las empresas, los educadores, los padres y los estudiantes bajo condiciones muy dinámicas. Concluye con un conjunto de recomendaciones clave acerca de la estructura del sistema y su relevancia para el mercado de trabajo; acceso y equidad; financiación, gobierno y gestión; internacionalización; investigación, desarrollo e innovación. Este informe será de gran utilidad tanto para los profesionales dominicanos como para sus homólogos internacionales. Este informe está basado en la permanente cooperación de la OCDE con las economías no miembros de todo el mundo.

    Abstract: El sector agrícola de Chile juega un papel importante en el desarrollo de la economía del país, ayudando a elevar los ingresos y a reducir la pobreza. El sector se beneficia de un clima macroeconómico estable y de un entorno comercial abierto, asimismo, las exportaciones han crecido rápidamente, en particular para productos de alto valor, tales como el vino y la fruta. La prioridad actual del Gobierno es ampliar la base de crecimiento de la agricultura integrando de manera exitosa a los pequeños agricultores del país en las estructuras comerciales. Este estudio mide el nivel y la magnitud del apoyo que se brinda a la agricultura chilena, y evalúa la eficacia de las medidas actuales en el logro de sus objetivos. El estudio revela que Chile ofrece mucho menos apoyo y protección a su sector agrícola en comparación con la mayoría de los países de la OCDE, a pesar de que los gastos del gobierno en el sector se han triplicado en términos reales durante los últimos diez años. Cerca de la mitad de ese gasto se debe a bienes públicos como infraestructura y riego, mientras que la otra mitad se compone principalmente de las medidas que buscan hacer más competitivos a los agricultores de Chile. Este reporte sugiere formas en las que se puede mejorar la eficacia de esas políticas, incluyendo la evaluación sistemática de la ejecución de las mismas, por medio de una coordinación más estrecha entre los organismos gubernamentales y con la elaboración de políticas para los pequeños agricultores y para los trabajadores agrícolas asalariados en un contexto amplio de la economía, para que las políticas agrícolas puedan centrarse en los agricultores potencialmente competitivos y se distingan de manera efectiva e otros desarrollos y políticas sociales.

    Abstract: When immigrants arrive in a new country, they are confronted with new labour market requirements such as language proficiency, familiarity with job search procedures and work practices which they are not always able to satisfy. These obstacles affect not only new immigrants, but, surprisingly, their children too, even if the children are born and educated in the receiving country. This publication presents reviews of the labour market integration of immigrants and their children in four OECD countries (Belgium, France, the Netherlands and Portugal), and provides country-specific recommendations. Governments have a role to play in promoting language and vocational training, and encouraging diversity in the workplace. Immigrants themselves must accept the requirements of the host country employers. The viability of future migration policies, in particular greater recourse to immigration, will depend to a large extent on how successful OECD countries and immigrants are in achieving these objectives.

    Keywords: Agriculture Environmental aspects ; OECD countries ; Environmental policy OECD countries ; Environmental protection OECD countries ; Agriculture and Food ; Environment ; OECD ; Landwirtschaft ; Umweltstatistik
    Abstract: In OECD countries, agriculture uses on average over 40% of land and water resources, and thus has significant affect on the environment. This report provides the latest and most comprehensive data and analysis on the environmental performance of agriculture in OECD countries since 1990. It covers key environmental themes including soil, water, air and biodiversity and looks at recent policy developments in all 30 countries. Over recent years the environmental performance of agriculture has improved in many countries, largely due to consumer pressure and changing public opinion. Many OECD countries are now tracking the environmental performance of agriculture, which is informing policy makers and society on the trends in agri-environmental conditions, and can provide a valuable aid to policy analysis. The indicators in this report provide crucial information to monitor and analyse the wide range of policy measures used in agriculture today, and how they are affecting the environment. Did You Know? In OECD countries, agriculture uses on average 40% of land and water resources.

    Abstract: Corruption is a serious concern in many parts of the world. In Eastern Europe and Central Asia, transition processes provided particularly rich ground for corruption. This volume analyses a broad range of anti-corruption measures recently implemented in Eastern Europe and Central Asia and identifies where interim progress has been achieved, and where further or reinforced action is needed. The book covers such areas as: anti-corruption strategies, and action plans and mechanisms to monitor their implementation; as well as anti-corruption criminal legislation and its application in practice, including the key role of specialised, independent and well-resourced anti-corruption law-enforcement bodies. The volume also examines a diverse range of measures to prevent corruption among public officials, in political parties, and in the private sector. It is rich with country data and practical examples, and will provide a useful source of information for anti-corruption decision makers and practitioners in Eastern Europe and Central Asia and beyond.

    Abstract: The Southeast Asian region has experienced remarkable economic dynamism in the past few decades. An interesting feature of recent developments in the region, is that in spite of its diversity, several initiatives have been launched towards integration. The peer review mechanism has been a tried and tested instrument for OECD member states to work together successfully over the past decades. This tool could benefit the Southeast Asian region as it helps identify good practices, establish standards and principles and ultimately improve the performance of participating economies. This publication presents the proceedings of a conference in which the possible application of peer reviews to address regional and domestic challenges in Southeast Asia were discussed.

    Series Statement: OECD reviews of tertiary education
    Keywords: Education ; Croatia
    Abstract: In many OECD countries, tertiary education systems have experienced rapid growth over the last decade. With tertiary education increasingly seen as a fundamental pillar for economic growth, these systems must now address the pressures of a globalising economy and labour market. Within governance frameworks that encourage institutions, individually and collectively, to fulfil multiple missions, tertiary education systems must aim for the broad objectives of growth, full employment and social cohesion. In this context, the OECD launched a major review of tertiary education with the participation of 24 nations. The principal objective of the review is to assist countries in understanding how the organisation, management and delivery of tertiary education can help them achieve their economic and social goals. Croatia is one of 14 countries which opted to host a Country Review, in which a team of external reviewers carried out an in-depth analysis of tertiary education policies. This report includes: an overview of Croatia's tertiary education system; an account of trends and developments in tertiary education in Croatia; an analysis of the strengths and challenges in tertiary education in Croatia; and recommendations for future policy development. This review of tertiary education in Croatia forms part of the OECD Thematic Review of Tertiary Education, a project conducted between 2004 and 2008.

    Abstract: The opportunities for individuals and businesses to benefit from globalisation are increased by efficient, cost-effective transport networks. A competitive, responsive, well-organised transport sector facilitates trade, but creating the conditions for this poses policy challenges that must be tackled if transport is to contribute fully to globalisation. This was the main theme of the 17th ITF/OECD Symposium. These conference proceedings contain summaries of the opening session ceremonies and discussions and the full text of the 16 papers presented as introductory reports for the discussions. The reports cover such fields as data and trends, globalisation and transport sector development, transport policy and regional integration, trade and infrastructure, and international transport and domestic policy.

    Abstract: Individuals face an increasing variety of financial risks, including those linked to their retirement. At the same time, public funding has been reduced or is strictly limited in most countries. Private insurance and pensions products therefore play an essential role in social and financial protection. Yet the public might have a low level of awareness of the risks they are exposed to, and lack literacy, knowledge and skills in insurance and private pensions questions and products. This volume addresses these topical and unexplored issues as part of the ongoing OECD project on financial education. After a comprehensive analysis of the main challenges and presentation of practical solutions, the book highlights good practices, endorsed by OECD governments, to enhance awareness and education on risk, insurance and private pensions issues.

    Abstract: Belgian citizens want the look and feel of a single public sector entity and the provision of integrated e-government services customised to their needs rather than to have to understand the complex division of governmental responsibilities. Belgium already has internationally recognised examples to show: most importantly the transformation of the social sector administration through e-governance tools, and more recently the link of e-government services to administrative-burden reduction. Future transformation will be enabled by the common electronic identity card (eID) that has been adopted by all governments. This report shows that the development and provision of the next generation of user-focused services will require the maximisation of synergies between the federal, regional and community governments and local authorities in Belgium.

    Abstract: Although Poland has managed to maintain high growth levels since the mid-1990s, with the second-best performance in the OECD in 2006-07, territorial disparities are persistent and rising, especially between large urban areas and rural ones. Like many OECD countries, Poland must seek to achieve an appropriate balance between support for poles of growth and the development of lagging regions, particularly its eastern peripheral regions, which are among the poorest in the European Union. This report explores the various challenges and opportunities for Polish regional development policy, and provides recommendations to best design and implement the policy mix, looking in particular at governance challenges.

    Abstract: This Investment Policy Review of China 2008 reviews Chinese government efforts to encourage responsible business conduct against the backdrop of recent regulatory changes and China's increasing outward investment. It assesses the extent to which China's legal and regulatory framework for investment has been improved since the 2006 Review, including new cross-border mergers and acquisitions regulations, the Enterprise Income Tax Law, the Property Rights Law, the Anti-Monopoly Law and the latest revision of the Catalogue for Guiding Foreign Investment Industries. It also evaluates recent improvements in China's FDI statistics. The 2008 Review provides a unique account of the motivations for and development of China's outward direct investment in recent years in light of government policy encouraging companies to "go global", focusing in particular on Chinese investment in Africa. It provides the first detailed and comprehensive analysis of the government's efforts to encourage responsible business conduct by enterprises in China and by Chinese enterprises operating abroad, highlighting in particular efforts to strengthen environmental protection and respect for core labour standards by enterprises. The Review concludes with an evaluation of enterprises' environmental conduct in China.

    Parallel Title: Parallelausg. Test No. 316: Phototransformation of Chemicals in Water Direct Photolysis
    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: Cette Ligne directrice décrit des études de phototransformation dans l'eau afin de déterminer les effets potentiels des radiations solaires sur les produits chimiques dans les eaux de surface. Seule la photolyse directe est prise en compte. La Ligne directrice est organisée par étapes. La première étape se base sur un dépistage théorique. Dans les études de photolyse directe, la vitesse de dégradation d'une substance suit approximativement une cinétique de premier ordre. Si les pertes maximales estimées sont supérieures ou égales à 50% de la concentration initiale au bout de 30 jours, on effectue une étude expérimentale en deuxième étape. En laboratoire, les constantes de vitesse de photolyse directe des produits chimiques sont déterminées en utilisant des lampes à arc de xénon filtrées capables de simuler la lumière naturelle entre 290 et 800 nm ou des radiations solaires, et extrapolées pour simuler les conditions dans l'eau. Si les pertes estimées sont supérieures ou égales à 20%, les voies de transformation, ainsi que la nature, les concentrations, les taux de formation et de dégradation de principaux produits de transformation sont identifiés. De plus, il est possible de déterminer le rendement quantique en fonction du type d'eau, des saisons et de la latitude. La substance testée devrait être directement dissoute dans le milieu aqueux saturé en air à une concentration inférieure à la moitié de sa solubilité. Pour les étapes supérieure et finale du test, au moins 5 et 7 échantillons doivent être prélevés respectivement pour la régression des données. Le nombre exact d'échantillons ainsi que la fréquence de prélèvement sont déterminés dans des études préliminaires. Pour établir la variabilité et réduire l'incertitude de détermination, il est recommandé d'utiliser au moins deux réplicats par expérimentation.

    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: This Test guideline describes studies on phototransformation in water to determine the potential effects of solar irradiation on chemicals in surface water, considering direct photolysis only. It is designed as a tiered approach. The Tier 1 is based on a theoretical screen. The rate of decline of a test chemical in a direct photolysis study is generally assumed to follow pseudo first-order kinetics. If the maximum possible losses is estimated to be superior or equal to 50% of the initial concentration over a 30-day period, an experimental study is proceeded in Tier 2. The direct photolysis rate constants for test chemicals in the laboratory is determined using preferably a filtered xenon arc lamp capable of simulating natural sunlight in the 290 to 800 nm, or sunlight irradiation, and extrapolated to natural water. If estimated losses are superior or equal to 20%, the transformation pathway and the identities, concentrations, and rate of formation and decline of major transformation products are identified. An optional task is the additional determination of the quantum yield for various types of water bodies, seasons, and latitudes of interest. The test chemical should be directly dissolved in the aqueous media saturated in air at a concentration which should not exceed half its solubility. For linear and non-linear regressions on the test chemical data in definitive or upper tier tests, the minimum number of samples collected should be 5 and 7 respectively. The exact number of samples and the timing of their collection is determined by a preliminary range-finding. Replicates (at least 2) of each experimental determination of kinetic parameters are recommended to determine variability and reduce uncertainty in their determination.

    Abstract: To catch up with more advanced economies, Serbia urgently needs to improve the functioning of its labour market. This report reviews labour market trends and the principle challenges to labour market policy, making a series of recommendations. Despite many reforms, new business growth until now has been far too slow to compensate for job losses elsewhere. Recent reforms of labour law should be followed up by further efforts to improve the climate for business and productive work. Labour regulations must be flexible, but they should also be enforced more consistently. For all this to happen, it is essential that an effective social dialogue can take place and that it encompasses expanding and declining segments of the labour market.

    Abstract: The debate on a market-based economy has now entered a new phase in Brazil, addressing the broader context of quality regulation and the reduction of regulatory risk. The improved macroeconomic situation and the progress made by the sectoral regulatory agencies have paid off, and there is also wider social participation in the improvement of the regulatory framework with a stronger consumer engagement. But Brazil still needs to further improve its capacities for regulatory quality and increase transparency and accountability in the system to reinforce regulatory performance. This review analyses the challenges of strengthening regulatory governance in Brazil to improve economic growth, with appropriate regulatory frameworks for core infrastructure sectors. Improved institutional capacities would also enhance support for regulatory policy across various government areas. Setting up an appropriate architecture for sectoral regulatory agencies and balancing autonomy with accountability will contribute to improved governance. Challenges include consolidating the autonomy and status of Brazilian regulatory authorities, reinforcing the strategic organisation for planning and decision making, increasing social accountability mechanisms, and improving co-ordination with competition authorities. Regulatory reform will help Brazil boost growth opportunities, and improve the quality and value of core services provided to its citizens. Brazil requested this broad review by the OECD of its regulatory practices and reforms. The review presents a general picture of the overall frameworks to assure high quality regulation with a special focus on four core infrastructure sectors: power, private health insurance, land transport and telecommunications.

    Abstract: Faced with high population density, close proximity of urban areas and urban-rural linkages, rural areas in the Netherlands have witnessed a gradual disappearance of characteristically rural landscapes and a deterioration of biodiversity. Future developments will increase pressures on rural land use, making a policy framework to address these challenges only more pertinent.

    Abstract: Global value chains are radically altering how goods and services are produced. Parts made in one country, for instance, are increasingly assembled in another and sold in a third. The globalisation of production has changed the industrial structure within OECD countries, and in some sectors blunted their competitiveness. Another major consequence has been fears of job losses. This volume is a compilation of the studies that underlie the synthesis report on global value chains, entitled Staying Competitive in the Global Economy: Moving Up the Value Chain. It includes papers on the measurement of globalisation, SMEs in global value chains, the changing nature of manufacturing, impact of international sourcing, foreign affiliates, offshoring and productivity, and the internationalisation of R&D.

    Abstract: El estado mexicano de Yucatán, con su ubicación de importancia estratégica cerca de Estados Unidos de América, América Central y el Caribe, es una de las regiones más dinámicas de la OCDE. Yucatán es también una tierra de contrastes. Es una región rezagada pero en crecimiento, que ofrece una alta calidad de vida y vastos recursos naturales, pero que a la vez padece problemas de sustentabilidad. Sus atracciones turísticas se localizan en zonas rurales que no se benefician de ellas. Cuenta con servicios médicos estatales y peninsulares, pero su cobertura de servicios de salud es desequilibrada. Yucatán es un centro de educación superior en la península y, sin embargo, sus graduados no consiguen empleo. Tienen varias comunidades marginadas en organismos administrativos fragmentados y, si bien los estados que pertenecen a la península comparten un legado y un atractivo culturales comunes, sus instituciones no cooperan entre sí.Resulta claro que Yucatán no aprovecha por completo sus múltiples recursos y, de hecho, los desafíos que prevalecen en la región amenazan con debilitar los bienes locales. Entre estos desafíos se encuentra la necesidad de convertir determinadas actividades en procesos de innovación y diseño de un valor agregado más alto, así como fomentar el que las actividades primarias lleguen a los mercados internacionales. Pese a que el gobierno estatal ha propuesto programas para estimular la formalización de la economía informal, medidas como una mejor reglamentación, la reducción de la burocracia y la oferta de oportunidades de empleo y el acceso al crédito formal podrían causar un mayor impacto. La falta de una visión a largo plazo compartida y coherente es un reto fundamental para mejorar la competitividad regional y la cohesión social en Yucatán. Las recomendaciones de la OCDE sólo pueden ser parte de una estrategia de mayor envergadura para desarrollar una visión colectiva del futuro del estado.

    Abstract: Value-added estimates are a significant improvement upon measures of school performance currently used in most education systems across OECD countries. They provide a fundamentally more accurate and valuable quantitative basis for school improvement planning, policy development and for enacting effective school accountability arrangements. This groundbreaking report provides examples of best practices in value-added modeling for measuring school performance.

    Abstract: La mobilité des étudiants, des enseignants, du savoir et même des valeurs fait partie de l'enseignement supérieur depuis des siècles. Mais cette mobilité s’est récemment accélérée à un rythme sans précédent. Cette évolution présente de nombreuses opportunités : accès élargi à l'enseignement supérieur, alliances stratégiques entre pays et régions ainsi que valorisation des ressources humaines et renforcement des capacités institutionnelles. Ces opportunités ne vont cependant pas sans défis : accroissement potentiel des prestataires médiocres ou peu scrupuleux, titres et diplômes non reconnus par les employeurs ou les établissements locaux, ou encore élitisme source de tensions. Cet ouvrage vise à éclairer ces opportunités et ces défis, notamment pour les pays en développement qui souhaitent se servir de l'enseignement supérieur transnational comme levier de développement. Il examine le concept de renforcement des capacités par l'enseignement supérieur transnational et met l'accent sur le rôle clé de l'assurance qualité et des négociations commerciales.

    Keywords: Governance
    Abstract: Ce rapport examine, du point de vue politique, quelques-unes des principales difficultés que soulève la mise en œuvre de la réforme réglementaire. Il s’appuie sur les informations disponibles des pays de l’OCDE qui veulent convaincre par des résultats et élaborent des stratégies de mobilisation. Il fait ainsi la synthèse des débats menés lors de la réunion du Groupe de l’OCDE sur la politique de la réglementation en décembre 2007. Les questions centrales portent sur les moyens de susciter l’adhésion générale à la réforme et sur le choix des acteurs et parties prenantes qu’il faut associer à la réalisation des réformes. Les questions de programmation et de calendrier sont d’une importance capitale. Il faut aussi que les citoyens et le public comprennent l’intérêt économique de la libéralisation et de la simplification des formalités administratives que permet la réforme réglementaire. Des chapitres spécifiques analysent le rôle des organes de mobilisation pour la réforme réglementaire, ainsi que la politique de la concurrence. Ces chapitres examinent leurs incitations et leurs modalités d’intervention compte tenu de leur environnement culturel, politique et administratif. Ils doivent jouer le rôle de puissants moteurs de la réforme, intégrant le point de vue des entreprises et des citoyens dans l’élaboration des politiques. Un exemple est présenté sous la forme d’une étude de cas évaluant la viabilité politique du contrôle réglementaire centralisé comme stratégie institutionnelle à partir de l’expérience des États-Unis. En ce qui concerne la mobilisation pour la politique de la concurrence, ce rapport examine l’équilibre entre l’indépendance institutionnelle et l’objectivité qui sont nécessaires pour veiller à l’application des règles. Il étudie comment associer les politiques d’ouverture des marchés dans un environnement favorable à la réforme, tirant les enseignements des ajustements des échanges et des ajustements structurels. Il souligne le rôle des négociations internationales, en tant que moyen pour mobiliser l’appui au niveau politique, et les stratégies visant à organiser et à entretenir les réformes d’ouverture des marchés.

    Abstract: Film and video products take a huge variety of forms from modest training or promotion audio-visuals to blockbuster feature films that earn very large amounts of money from worldwide distribution. Production and distribution for any film or video product involve an extremely wide array of commercial interests often with quite different strategies. This study focuses on commercial entertainment products and production and distribution of films and television programs. It analyses the impact of digital content creation, distribution and use on value chains and business models of the film and video industry and explores the policy implications of these changes to identify how digital content may affect the function and position of participants in the industry along the value chain.

Cette étude présente une évaluation critique des coûts et des bénéfices de l’adaptation dans certains secteurs clés mais vulnérables au changement climatique ainsi qu’à l’échelle nationale et mondiale. Au-delà de la problématique de l’estimation des coûts, cette analyse oriente le débat sur le potentiel et les limites des instruments économiques – par exemple, assurance et partage des risques, marchés et tarification de biens et services environnementaux, partenariats public-privé – visant à encourager les activités d’adaptation.

    Abstract: Asian-Pacific countries have made significant efforts to address weaknesses in their procurement frameworks and practices. To support these efforts and to assist the ADB/OECD Anti-Corruption Initiative’s 28 member countries in strengthening their public-procurement mechanisms, the Initiative conducted a Regional Seminar on Fighting Bribery in Public Procurement in November 2007. This volume compiles the experience that experts from Asian and Pacific countries – as well as beyond the region – shared during the seminar. It is addressed to policy makers and experts who wish to learn from other countries’ experiences in strengthening frameworks to protect public procurement from bribery and corruption risks.

    Keywords: Environment
    Abstract: Cette Ligne directrice décrit une méthode pour évaluer l’ampleur et la cinétique de biodégradation primaire et ultime de substances organiques dont la voie d’entrée dans l’environnement commence par leur rejet dans les eaux usées. Elle consiste en cinq essais de simulation dans a) un système d’égout, b) de la boue activée, c) de la boue de digesteur anaérobique, d) une zone de mélange d’effluents traités et d’eau de surface, et e) une zone de mélange d’effluents non traités et d’eau de surface. Ces essais sont appropriés pour des substances déversées de façon continue ou discontinue dans les eaux usées. Les cinq méthodes d’essai décrites sont des systèmes discontinus ouverts ou des systèmes discontinus clos avec écoulement de gaz. Les principaux objectifs sont i) de mesurer la vitesse de biodégradation primaire, ii) de mesurer la vitesse de minéralisation, iii) de suivre, s’il y a lieu, la formation et la disparition des principaux produits de transformation. Habituellement, une substance d’essai, marquée par un isotope (14C) sur un site approprié, est incubée avec un échantillon environnemental approprié. Des traitements biotiques et abiotiques sont préparés pour chaque substance et condition d’essai. Les quantités de substance parent et de produits de dégradation sont déterminées par des méthodes de séparation chromatographique et de détection radioanalytique.

    Abstract: The method permits estimation of an LD50 with a confidence interval and the results allow a substance to be classified for acute toxicity according to the Globally Harmonised System of classification and labelling of chemicals. It is easiest to apply to materials that produce death within couple of days. This Test Guideline is intended for use with rodents (rat female preferably). There are a limit test and a main test. The limit test can be used efficiently to identify chemicals that are likely to have low toxicity. The test substance is administered generally in a single dose by gavage to animals fasted prior to dosing. Single animals are dosed in sequence usually at 48h intervals. The first animal is dosed a step below the best preliminary estimates of the LD50. The second animal receives a lower dose (if the first animal dies) or a higher dose (if the first animal survives). Animals are observed with a special attention given during the first 4 hours and daily thereafter, for a total of 14 days generally. Weights Animals should be determined at least weekly. All the animals should be subjected to gross necropsy. Globally the LD50 is calculated using the maximum likelihood method. Following this, it may be possible to compute interval estimates for the LD50; most narrow is the interval and better is LD50 estimation. Software to be used with TG 425, 432, 455. Click here.

    Keywords: 1947-2007 ; Wirtschaftlicher Wiederaufbau ; Europa ; Economics ; Marshall-Plan
    Abstract: This book examines the historical, diplomatic, economic, and strategic aspects of the European Recovery Program (ERP) - popularly known as the Marshall Plan - which brought Europe out of the chaos, hunger, poverty, desperation, and ashes of World War II. In it, authors from a variety of countries who are scholars, policy makers, and business leaders, address applications of the Marshall Plan’s lessons learned to the 21st century for capacity building, human and sustainable development, and the role of public, private partnerships in emerging market economies and democratic societies. "There are not many of us left who served through the Marshall Plan from its beginning, and fewer still who served time in the Hotel Talleyrand in Paris, the site of the anniversary celebration, in June 2007, of Secretary George C. Marshall’s 1947 commencement address launching the European Recovery Program. There are, though, scholars who can address those times and evaluate them so that the experience can live on. "The dedication of the Hotel de Talleyrand as a memorial to that unique enterprise provided the opportunity; and the analyses and evaluations in this splendid volume, The Marshall Plan: Lessons Learned for the 21st Century, reflect the excitement, as well as the accomplishments, of an economic enterprise that produced the infrastructure of NATO and the European Union. Long live the spirit of Marshall’s vision!" -Thomas C. Schelling, Marshall Plan alumnus, Washington, Copenhagen, Paris, Washington, ’48-‘53, Nobel Prize in Economics 2005 "A historical event is and remains crucial when it interacts with others in such a way as to contribute to a deep and positive change in the course of history. In this sense, the Marshall Plan made an outstanding and lasting contribution. It was instrumental to overcoming the temptation of isolationism in the US, to reviving our badly needed economic recovery and gave a decisive input to coordinating our national efforts, thus paving the way to our future European integration." When I think of the world as it would have been without the Marshall Plan, I am encouraged to conclude that even in our challenging times, another, better world is possible. This collection of well written contributions and analyses, The Marshall Plan: Lessons Learned for the 21st Century , further strengthens my convictions. -Giuliano Amato, Former Prime Minister, ItalyFormer Vice President, European Constitutional Assembly

    Abstract: Los países miembros de la OCDE dedican recursos signicativos a las políticas para el desarrollo local y regional, sin embargo, los resultados de dichas políticas han sido entendidos pobremente. La evaluación de la política pública representa desafíos conceptuales, técnicos e institucionales. Eso es particularmente cierto para el caso del desarrollo local. Frecuentemente los datos son inadecuados y los múltiples tipos de política pueden interactuar para ocultar los efectos de las iniciativas individuales. Diversos factores externos pueden afectar la economía de una localidad, y los impactos positivos de las políticas en una ubicación pueden causar efectos no deseados en otra. Además, los individuos hacia los cuales va orientada una política pueden cambiar de una localidad a otra. Estas y otras complejidades necesitan considerarse al evaluar qué políticas son verdaderamente efectivas y ecientes. Este es uno de los pocos libros que examina las mejores experiencias en la evaluación de los programas de desarrollo económico local y regional y de creación de empleo. Adecuado para lectores no técnicos, este libro contiene propuestas de política para los gobiernos centrales y locales interesados en mejorar los procesos de evaluación, ampliar la evidencia documental sobre las políticas públicas y desarrollar una cultura de evaluación.

    Abstract: 電力需要の高まりを受けて、複数の国が原子力発電所を建設中であり、それよりはるかに多くの国が 発電での原子力利用を検討している現在、ウラン産業は大きな注目を浴びている。ウラン価格は需要の高まりと在庫減少によって近年急騰した。その結果ウラン産業は、20 年を越える過少投資の時代に 終止符を打ち、華々しい隆盛期を再び迎えつつある。OECD 原子力機関と国際原子力機関が共同で作成している「レッドブック」は、ウランに関する参考資料として世界で認められた冊子である。レッドブックは 40 ヵ国から集めた公式情報に基づいている。今回の第 22 版は2007 年1 月1 日時点における世界のウラン需給を総合的に検討しているほか、世界におけるウランの探鉱、資源量、生産量、原子炉関連の必要量についてのデータを示している。また アフリカ、オーストラリア、中央アジア、東欧、北米における主要なウラン生産センターについての重要な新情報を提示している。さらに 2030 年までの原子力発電容量および原子炉関連ウラン需要の予 測を掲載したほか、長期的なウラン需給の問題についても分析を加えている。
