Any celebration of the current transition in Eastern Europe necessarily affirms the superiority of a market system over a non-market one and of a democratic system over a non-democratic one. The author does not deny the failures, shortcomings or imperfections of market economy and democracy. Nor does he take the survival of market capitalism and liberal democracy for granted. On the contrary, by highlighting the valiant and painful process of transition and attempting to understand its economics and culture, he seeks to contribute to the theoretical (academic) and practical (political) defense of Western civilization. 517 3 $aEconomics and culture of transition in Mitteleuropa, the Baltic, and the Balkan Area 606 $aPost-communism$zEurope, Eastern 607 $aEurope, Eastern$xEconomic policy$y1989- 607 $aEurope, Eastern$xEconomic conditions$y1989- 615 0$aPost-communism 676 $a330.947 700 $aBokros$b Lajos$0860727 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969576703321 996 $aAccidental occidental$91920888 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03651nam 2200709Ia 450 001 9910956924803321 005 20251117003157.0 010 $a9786611800390 010 $a9780309178440 010 $a0309178444 010 $a9781281800398 010 $a1281800392 010 $a9780309124300 010 $a0309124301 035 $a(CKB)1000000000705279 035 $a(EBL)3378404 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000150849 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11146897 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000150849 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10280894 035 $a(PQKB)10378173 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3378404 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3378404 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10255031 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL180039 035 $a(OCoLC)923279356 035 $a(Perlego)4735203 035 $a(BIP)23616951 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000705279 100 $a20080822d2008 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aEvaluation of the multifunction phased array radar planning process /$fCommittee on the Evaluation of the Multifunction Phased Array Radar Planning Process, Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate, Division on Earth and Life Studies, National Research Council of the National Academies 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aWashington, D.C. $cNational Academies Press$dc2008 215 $a1 online resource (92 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9780309124324 311 08$a0309124328 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 65-69). 327 $a""Preface""; ""Acknowledgments""; ""Contents""; ""Summary""; ""1 Introduction""; ""2 Overview of the Current National Radar System""; ""3 Needs for the Next Generation System""; ""4 Capabilities of Phased Array Radar""; ""5 The MPAR Concept""; ""6 The MPAR Planning Process""; ""7 Evaluation of the Planning Process""; ""8 Family of Systems""; ""9 Concluding Thoughts""; ""References""; ""Appendix A STATEMENT OF TASK""; ""Appendix B ACRONYM LIST""; ""Appendix C BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES OF COMMITTEE MEMBERS AND STAFF"" 330 $aThe Multifunction Phased Array Radar (MPAR) is one potentially cost-effective solution to meet the surveillance needs and of several agencies currently using decades-old radar networks. These agencies including the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration s (NOAA) National Weather Service (NWS), the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), the Department of Defense (DOD) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) have many and varied requirements and possible applications of modern radar technology. This book analyzes what is lacking in the current system, the relevant capabilities of phased array technology, technical challenges, cost issues, and compares possible alternatives. Both specific and overarching recommendations are outlined. 606 $aPhased array antennas$xEvaluation 606 $aRadar$xAntennas 606 $aRadar$xAutomatic detection 615 0$aPhased array antennas$xEvaluation. 615 0$aRadar$xAntennas. 615 0$aRadar$xAutomatic detection. 676 $a621.3824 712 02$aNational Academies (U.S.) 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bBoard on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate. 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bDivision on Earth and Life Studies. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910956924803321 996 $aEvaluation of the multifunction phased array radar planning process$94358456 997 $aUNINA
