Book V also includes the first six years of the American Invitational Mathematics Examination (AIME) which was developed as an intermediate step between the AHSME and the USA Mathematical Olympiad (USAMO). The AIME has a unique answer format-all answers are integers between 0 and 999. The editors of this volume, George Berzsenyi and Stephen B. Maurer, were respectively the chair of the AIME and the AHSME during this period. In addition to a thorough index, they have added much material not included in Contest Books I-IV: a comprehensive guide to other problem materials world wide, additional solutions, dropped problems, statistical information, and information on test development and history. This is a must volume for avid fans of elementary problems, young and old.Anneli Lax new mathematical library ;v. 38.MathematicsProblems, exercises, etcMathematicsExaminations, questions, etcMathematicsCompetitionsElectronic books.MathematicsMathematicsMathematicsCompetitions.510/.76Berzsenyi George996068Maurer Stephen B754935MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910465739503321The contest problem book2282699UNINA04167nam 2200745Ia 450 991078572190332120200520144314.00-231-53092-710.7312/ears16112(CKB)2670000000270024(EBL)932154(OCoLC)813846221(SSID)ssj0000754987(PQKBManifestationID)12343875(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000754987(PQKBWorkID)10729693(PQKB)10515008(StDuBDS)EDZ0000099596(DE-B1597)458824(OCoLC)1002232396(OCoLC)1004874637(OCoLC)1011461368(OCoLC)1013962595(OCoLC)979628850(OCoLC)987932046(OCoLC)992471024(OCoLC)999371617(DE-B1597)9780231530927(Au-PeEL)EBL932154(CaPaEBR)ebr10607134(CaONFJC)MIL684697(MiAaPQ)EBC932154(EXLCZ)99267000000027002420120215d2013 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAid dependence in Cambodia[electronic resource] how foreign assistance undermines democracy /Sophal EarNew York Columbia University Pressc20131 online resource (209 p.)Description based upon print version of record.1-322-53415-2 0-231-16112-3 Includes bibliographical references (p.

Shallow Democracy -- Conclusion -- Appendix -- Notes -- Works Cited -- IndexInternational intervention liberated Cambodia from pariah state status in the early 1990s and laid the foundations for more peaceful, representative rule. Yet the country's social indicators and the integrity of its political institutions declined rapidly within a few short years, while inequality grew dramatically. Conducting an unflinching investigation into these developments, Sophal Ear reveals the pernicious effects of aid dependence and its perversion of Cambodian democracy.International intervention and foreign aid resulted in higher maternal (and possibly infant and child) mortality rates and unprecedented corruption by the mid-2000s. Similarly, in example after example, Ear finds the more aid dependent a country, the more distorted its incentives to develop sustainably. Contrasting Cambodia's clothing sector with its rice and livestock sectors and internal handling of the avian flu epidemic, he showcases the international community's role in preventing Cambodia from controlling its national development.A postconflict state unable to refuse aid, Cambodia is rife with trial-and-error donor experiments and their unintended consequences, such as bad governance and poor domestic and tax revenue performance-a major factor curbing sustainable, nationally owned growth. By outlining the terms through which countries can achieve better ownership of their development, Ear offers alternatives for governments still on the brink of collapse, despite ongoing dependence on foreign intervention and aid.DemocracyCambodiaEconomic assistancePolitical aspectsCambodiaTechnical assistancePolitical aspectsCambodiaCambodiaPolitics and government1979-CambodiaEconomic conditionsDemocracyEconomic assistancePolitical aspectsTechnical assistancePolitical aspects320.9596Ear Sophal1529685MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910785721903321Aid dependence in Cambodia3774103UNINA
