Welfare - to - Work : Which Policies Work and Why ?
Alongside the growth in overall employment and the steady rise in average real incomes over the 1990s, the UK experienced a concentration of worklessness and low pay among certain groups in society. This was particularly acute for low-income families with children, but was also reflected in the frequency of spells out of work by the young and by the falling attachment to the labour market of ol...
متن کاملWhy Sex? and Why only in Pairs?∗
No single question has been more central to our understanding of sex than the question of why a species reproduces sexually when asexual reproduction avoids the twofold cost of males. Surprisingly, an equally fundamental question has received virtually no attention at all. That is, why are there no triparental species in which an offspring is composed of the genetic material of three individual...
متن کاملWhy Sex? and Why Only in Pairs?1
Understanding the purpose of sex remains one of the most important unresolved problems in evolutionary biology. The di¢ culty is not that there are too few theories of sex, the di¢ culty is that there are too many and none stand out. To distinguish between theories we suggest the following question: Why are there no triparental species in which an o¤spring is composed of the genetic material of...
متن کاملSwiping without Sluicing
In sluiced clauses, English allows a wh-expression to be inverted around its preposition in a process called swiping, as in (1a) (Merchant 2002). I show, contrary to previous work, that swiping is not limited to ellipsis contexts: it is also permitted when the inverted (swiped) whPP is coordinated with another wh-phrase, as shown for both matrix and embedded contexts in (1b-c), both from the in...
متن کاملHarmonic analysis of spiking neuronal pairs
Harmonic analysis is applied to analyze the transmission of bandlimited signals via spike trains generated by a pair of leaky integrate-and-fire (LIF) model neurons organized in a push-pull, or ‘on/off’, configuration. It is found that lowpass signals can be transmitted with only moderate distortion utilizing mean spike rates with many spikes per signal coherence time. The transmission of bandp...
