Partnership is increasingly espoused as the best relationship between members of the sustainable development aid chain, and implies a respect for the position of all and a desire to avoid a situation where one group dominates another.

Political researchers point to church activities as a major avenue for lower-class individuals to learn the civic skills necessary for many forms of political participation, the skills that higher-status individuals learn through education and occupation. This article tests this theory through multilevel analyses of the effects of both individual income and average congregational income on thre...

This paper introduces a computer-based tool for the analysis of the geometry and the daylighting of Byzantine church domes to facilitate experimentation with a number of cases before any fieldwork is undertaken. Starting with a geometric derivation of the relationship between dome parameters, the digital tool builds an interactive three-dimensional model of a Byzantine church dome. The model al...

For a two-variable formula ψ(X,Y ) of Monadic Logic of Order (MLO) the Church Synthesis Problem concerns the existence and construction of an operator Y = F (X) such that ψ(X,F (X)) is universally valid over Nat . Büchi and Landweber proved that the Church synthesis problem is decidable; moreover, they showed that if there is an operator F that solves the Church Synthesis Problem, then it can a...

Owing to the uncomparable quantity of people working on so many diff erent dictionaries and with almost all results being splendid – claims Richard Bailey – we live in the golden age of lexicography. The current state, achievements and perspectives of Church Slavonic as well as Croatian historical lexicography in this presumed lexicographic age of gold were presented and discussed during the co...
