    Abstract: Scientists have known for years that complex diseases, such as cancer, heart disease, stroke, and diabetes, arise from a combination of lifestyle, environmental, genetic and random factors. Large-scale study of populations may contribute significantly to science's understanding of the complex multi-factorial basis of disease and to improvements in prevention, detection, diagnosis, treatment and cure. As a result of developments in biotechnology and bioinformatics, the opportunity to store and analyse increasingly large amounts of genetic data have rendered possible the creation of large-scale population databases. Genetic research, involving the use of such databases containing human genetic and genomic data, information, and biological samples, is thus becoming increasingly feasible.

    Abstract: Comment imaginer que la libéralisation des échanges de biens et services soit sujette à controverse ? Pourquoi un pays voudrait-il maintenir des obstacles qui empêchent ces échanges ? Telles sont les questions qu’avaient à l’esprit les ministres des pays de l’OMC lorsqu’ils ont demandé, en novembre 2001, l’ouverture de négociations visant à réduire ou à éliminer les obstacles aux échanges de biens et services environnementaux. Néanmoins, ils n’ont pas défini ces biens et services, laissant les négociateurs s’en charger. La présente série d’études vise à aider les négociateurs à s’orienter parmi les problèmes nombreux et complexes qui ont été soulevés au fil du débat international sur la libéralisation des échanges de biens et services environnementaux. Outre qu’ils expliquent les conditions dans lesquelles ont été établies les deux premières listes de ces biens (résultant d’initiatives distinctes de l’OCDE et du Forum de coopération économique Asie-Pacifique), les différents chapitres : Étudient plusieurs problèmes pratiques que pose la classification des biens environnementaux, dont celle des biens qui ont deux utilisations Donnent des exemples concrets de synergies entre commerce de services environnementaux et commerce de biens environnementaux Synthétisent les résultats de plusieurs études nationales sur les biens et services environnementaux conduites par l’OCDE et d’autres organisations intergouvernementales Le présent ouvrage est un compendium de documents de travail du Groupe de travail conjoint sur les échanges et l’environnement.

    Abstract: Turkish domestic equity markets and inward foreign investment are poised to grow rapdily but only if corporate governance standards are high enough to protect minority shareholders. This report evaluates the extent to which the OECD Principles of Corporate Governance have been implemented in Turkey, looking at both the legal and regulatory framework as well as company practices. It finds that significant reforms to the corporate governance framework have already been introduced, and supports additional legislative reforms that are already in progress. Looking ahead, the report argues that it is time to move into the next important phase in policy reform, and makes a series of recommendations for further strengthening Turkeys corporate governance structures.

    Abstract: Some 500 million USD are spent annually on fisheries development projects. But fisheries access agreements and trade policies are sometimes applied in ways that dampen developing countries' ability to benefit fully from their rich marine resources. Also, many development projects do not pay sufficient regard to the sustainability issues that are a key for the future of the fishing sector. This publication, a compilation of papers from the Workshop on Policy Coherence for Development in Fisheries, addresses these issues.

    Abstract: This publication reveals a number of interesting examples of innovative programmes using ICT that can increase access to learning out-of-school youths and adults. The papers show that ICT can be one way -- but by no means the only way -- to improve pathways to learning. It can do this by tailoring learning to the needs and preferred learning styles of the disadvantaged, and it can make learning more interesting by providing immediate feedback. A third message is that just as adult learning itself has been the under-funded and under-appreciated Cinderella of the formal learning spectrum, so the application of ICT within adult learning has tended to lag behind much of the rest of the education system. The present volume provides some cautionary remarks on the recent past and opens up some significant opportunities for the future.

    Abstract: Subsidies are pervasive in OECD countries and are among the most powerful public policy instruments. But they often introduce unintended consequences, such as budget deficits, pollution, unemployment and trade distortions. This report contains the proceedings of an OECD workshop on subsidy reform held in October 2005 under the auspices of the OECD programme on sustainable development. It provides an overview of approaches for assessing subsidies and associated taxes, and looks at country experiences in reforming subsidies in the agriculture, fisheries, industry, and transport sectors.

    Abstract: This collection of studies is intended to help trade negotiators navigate through the international discussion over liberalising trade in environmental goods and services by exploring in greater depth three categories of environmental goods: environmentally preferable products, renewable-energy products and energy-efficient products. Its three chapters consider the scope and definition of each product category, examine tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade, and explain the environmental effects of liberalising such goods. This book follows a previous volume, Trade that Benefits the Environment and Development: Opening Markets for Environmental Goods and Services, published in 2005,

    Abstract: Building on a recent groundbreaking OECD/World Bank seminar, this volume explores whether and how trade liberalisation can contribute to achieving universal service goals and the types of complementary policies required. It focuses on experiences in four sectors - telecommunications, water and sanitation, financial services, and electricity. The unique multi-sector perspective taken in this book, together with the national case studies, yield insights which can help countries promote their universal access goals. A horizontal assessment also helps determine how far the current services negotiations in the WTO, under the General Agreement on Trade in Services, can aid the attainment of universal service goals.

    Abstract: The lack of funding available from the financial sector for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) is known as the "financing gap". This timely report analyses this gap for both credit and equity financing and seeks to determine how prevalent such a gap may be, both among OECD countries and non-OECD economies. The report recommends measures to foster an improved flow of financing to SMEs and entrepreneurs.

Telles sont quelques-unes des questions auxquelles cette étude tente de répondre. Plus précisément, on y analyse la façon dont les entreprises locales peuvent s'insérer dans les chaînes de valeur mondiales, accéder à des marchés éloignés et plus rentables et, grâce aux relations qu’elles entretiennent avec leurs clients, améliorer leurs capacités. Cet ouvrage s’appuie sur des études de cas. Il accorde une place privilégiée à quelques secteurs et examine l’expérience des pouvoirs publics et des entreprises dans la région du Mékong. En partant d’exemples concrets au niveau des entreprises et des secteurs dans des contextes nationaux spécifiques, il souhaite tirer des conclusions sur les meilleurs moyens de soutenir le développement du secteur privé dans les pays en développement.

    Keywords: Nuclear Energy ; France ; Konferenzschrift ; Kerntechnik
    Abstract: With a declining number of nuclear data evaluators in the world and an increasing demand for high-quality data, there is a risk that evaluators will concentrate on producing new nuclear data to the detriment of developing new models and methods for evaluating existing data. In this context, it is essential to identify the basic physics issues that are going to be important for future nuclear data evaluation processes. At the same time, demand for new types of data, which will be needed in emerging nuclear applications, could warrant new evaluation techniques that are presently only used in the context of fundamental research and not in nuclear data production. These proceedings present the main findings of the "Perspectives on Nuclear Data for the Next Decade" workshop, which explored innovative approaches to nuclear data evaluation with the aim of opening new perspectives, building new research programmes and investigating prospects for international collaboration.

    Abstract: The sheer volume of debt hanging over Asian companies suggests that corporate insolvency should remain a top policy concern. This conference proceedings presents reports from each country on the trends and developments in debt and credit risk since the 1997-1998 Asian financial crisis. It also includes overview papers that examine the problem in a wider context. These papers suggest that risk management practices, legal systems, liquidation and recovery, and institutional infrastructure and capacity all require additional attention.

    Abstract: Los Principios de Gobierno Corporativo de la OCDE fueron emitidos en 1999, desde entonces, han ganado reconocimiento mundial como un estándar de comparación internacional para el buen gobierno corporativo. Son usados activamente por los gobiernos, los reguladores, los inversores, empresas y otros interesados tanto en países miembros de la OCDE como en otros no-miembros, y han sido adoptados por el Foro sobre Estabilidad Financiera como una de las Doce Normas Fundamentales para garantizar sistemas financieros sanos. La finalidad de los Principios es la de ayudar en la tarea de evaluar y perfeccionar los marcos legal, institucional y reglamentario aplicables al gobierno corporativo. También ofrecen orientación y sugerencias a las Bolsas de valores, los inversores, las empresas, y demás partes que intervienen en el proceso de desarrollo de un buen gobierno corporativo.Los Principios deben ser vistos como un instrumento vivo. La versión revisada toma en cuenta los desarrollos desde 1999 e incorpora varias modificaciones importantes. La revisión se ha visto beneficiada ampliamente de la extensa consulta pública realizada. La versión revisada de los Principios de la OCDE fueron acordados por los países miembros de la OCDE el 22 de abril de 2004.

    Abstract: An important factor for public confidence in the nuclear regulator is the general public trust of the government and its representatives, which is clearly not the same in all countries. These workshop proceedings identify a number of common principles for the communication of nuclear regulatory decisions that can be recommended to all regulators. They have been cited in particular for their ability to help build, measure and/or improve overall public confidence in the nuclear regulator.

    Abstract: These workshop proceedings assess the third party liability and compensation mechanisms that would be implemented by participating countries in the event of a nuclear accident taking place within or near their borders. To do so, two fictitious accident scenarios were developed: one involving a fire in a nuclear installation located in the Slovak Republic and resulting in the release of significant amounts of radioactive materials off-site, and the other a fire on board a ship transporting enriched uranium hexafluoride along the Danube River. The first scenario was designed to involve the greatest possible number of countries, with the second being restricted to countries with a geographical proximity to the Danube. These proceedings contain the papers presented at the workshop, as well as reports on the discussion sessions held.

    Abstract: This publication provides policy makers, board members, managers, equity providers, creditors and other stakeholders an overview of the issues to be addressed in establishing good corporate governance of non-listed companies. While the corporate governance debate has mostly focused on listed companies with dispersed shareholdings, issues such as financial transparency, the role of access to outside capital and conflict resolution are just as important for non-listed and family controlled companies which play a major role in many economies. Contributors to this publication are policy makers, regulators and practitioners, mostly from emerging markets and developing countries including Brazil, China, India, Lebanon and Mexico. Drawing on their varied experiences, the contributors address key corporate governance issues such as the role of professional managers, the implications of specific control and ownership structures; the unique characteristics of corporate governance of non-listed companies, the adequate transparency requirements in non-listed companies, and how policy makers should inform themselves in order to facilitate better corporate governance and business performance in non-listed companies.

    Abstract: Hydrogen has the potential to play an important role as a sustainable and environmentally acceptable energy carrier in the 21st century. Since natural sources of pure hydrogen are extremely limited, it is necessary to develop technologies to produce large quantities of hydrogen economically. The currently dominant technology for producing hydrogen is based on reforming fossil fuels, a process which releases greenhouse gases. Hydrogen produced by water cracking, using heat and surplus electricity from nuclear power plants, requires no fossil fuels and results in lower greenhouse gas emissions. This conference proceedings presents the state of the art in the nuclear production of hydrogen and describes its associated scientific and technical challenges.
