Assessing the institutional mechanisms for stakeholder involvement ; Institutional mechanisms; Permanent stakeholder committees dominate the US approach; The EU makes use of agreement-specific advisory committees; Involving broader segments of civil societyEU trade agreements obligate parties to involve stakeholders and establish transnational mechanismsNearly half of trade agreements concluded in the past five years included either a labour chapter or labour provision that makes reference to international labour standards and ILO instruments. But challenges remain, particularly with respect to sustainability of impacts, coherence, and cooperative efforts. This report, part of the Studies on Growth with Equity series, gives a full examination of the scope and effectiveness of these labour provisions.Studies in Growth with EquityLabor policyLabor policy.331.1International Labour Organisation.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910823597903321Assessment of labour provisions in trade and investment arrangements3997330UNINA05225nam 2200709Ia 450 991083103270332120230721023116.01-282-30242-697866123024281-4443-2090-41-4443-1940-X(CKB)1000000000807314(EBL)470623(OCoLC)472433336(SSID)ssj0000343826(PQKBManifestationID)11263657(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000343826(PQKBWorkID)10292250(PQKB)10976091(MiAaPQ)EBC470623(EXLCZ)99100000000080731420081216d2009 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrTowers of capital[electronic resource] office markets & international financial services /Colin Lizieri1st ed.Ames, Iowa Blackwell Pub.20091 online resource (346 p.)Real estate issuesDescription based upon print version of record.1-4051-5672-4 Includes bibliographical references and index.Towers of Capital; About the Author; Introduction; Part I Systems of Cities and Cities of Finance; Introduction; Chapter 1 The Urban Hierarchy and Global Cities; 1.1 Introduction; 1.2 Cities and the urban hierarchy; 1.3 World cities, global cities; 1.4 Cities, space and finance; Chapter 2 International Financial Centres and Global Cities; 2.1 Introduction; 2.2 Concentration in financial centres; 2.3 Information technology and cities; 2.4 Agglomeration and concentration; 2.5 IFCs, concentration and office marketsChapter 3 A Sense of History: Development and Inertia in the International Financial Hierarchy3.1 Introduction; 3.2 A sense of history; 3.3 'The age of catastrophe'; 3.4 Asian and Middle Eastern markets; 3.5 Lessons of history: a tentative conclusion; Part II Inside the Office Market; Introduction; Chapter 4 Occupational Demand, Office Space and Rents; 4.1 Introduction; 4.2 Land value, land rent and financial services; 4.3 Rent models and rental adjustment; 4.4 Empirical evidence of rental adjustment processes in major office markets4.5 Changing business practices and the demand for office space4.6 Employment, volatility and the use of space; Chapter 5 The Supply of Space; 5.1 Developers, development cycles and research; 5.2 Development, building costs and property value; 5.3 Economic models and developer behaviour; 5.4 Real options and developer strategies; Chapter 6 Investment, Capital Flows and the Office Market; 6.1 Introduction; 6.2 Real estate in the portfolio; 6.3 Investment patterns and investor behaviour; 6.4 Real estate vehicles and the portfolio; 6.5 International real estate investment6.6 Real estate capital flows6.7 Investment, capital flows and IFC office markets; Part III International Finance, Global Office Markets and Systemic Risk; Introduction; 7.1 Introduction; Chapter 7 Booms, Bubbles, Crises and Contagion; 7.2 Financial markets, co-movement and crises; 7.3 Booms and bubbles; 7.4 Real estate in booms and bubbles; 7.5 Bubbles, crashes and IFC office markets; Chapter 8 Globalisation, Ownership and Innovation in Real Estate Markets; 8.1 Introduction: innovation in real estate investment and ownership; 8.2 Innovation in property investment vehicles8.3 Global real estate investment8.4 Ownership patterns; 8.5 Conclusions: innovation, ownership andreal estate risk in IFCs; Chapter 9 Global Financial Centres,Real Estate and Risk; 9.1 Introduction; 9.2 Retracing the threads; 9.3 Market integration, globalisation and systemic risk; 9.4 Some preliminary evidence; 9.5 Global fi nancial centres and offi ce market risk: somepolicy implicationsThis final section addresses a number of cruci; Epilogue; Bibliography; IndexAre global city office markets inherently unstable?

Divided into three major sections, it begins by presenting specialized calculation methods in the framework of data analysis and intelligent computing. In turn, the second section focuses on application aspects, mainly for systems research, while the final section investigates how various tasks in the basic disciplines—mathematics and physics—can be tackled with the aid of contemporary IT methods. The book gathers selected presentations from the 3rd Conference on Information Technology, Systems Research and Computational Physics (ITSRCP'18), which took place on 2–5 July 2018 in Krakow, Poland. The intended readership includes interdisciplinary scientists and practitioners pursuing research at the interfaces of information technology, systems research, and computational physics.Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing,2194-5365 ;945Computational intelligenceEngineeringData processingMathematical physicsComputational IntelligenceData EngineeringTheoretical, Mathematical and Computational PhysicsComputational intelligence.EngineeringData processing.Mathematical physics.Computational Intelligence.Data Engineering.Theoretical, Mathematical and Computational Physics.530.0285Kulczycki Piotredthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtKacprzyk Januszedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtKóczy László Tedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMesiar Radkoedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtWisniewski Rafaledthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910483118703321Information Technology, Systems Research, and Computational Physics2844394UNINA
