This paper provides an innovative axiomatic analysis of the notion of exploitation as the unequal exchange of labour, focusing on the relation between exploitation and profits. General convex economies with heterogeneous agents endowed with unequal amounts of physical and human capital are considered. An axiomatic characterisation of the class of definitions that preserve the Fundamental Marxia...

The numerical modeling of field-assisted ion exchange in glass through a finite aperture is carried out. The effects of unequal ion mobilities and thermal diffusion are included we believe for the first time in the 2-D case. This allows for the modeling of optical channel waveguides with graded index profiles. It is demonstrated that annealing of backdiffused channel guides is far superior to b...

The article raises the question of whether and how education systems produce social differences internally rather than reproducing pre?existing “external” inequalities. Linking Niklas Luhmann’s theory inclusion/exclusion with Charles Tilly’s categorical inequalities, based on empirical data from various qualitative studies, identifies an “observation regime” epistemically constituting classific...

‎‎in the data envelopment analysis (dea) the efficiency of the units‎ ‎can be obtained by identifying the degree of the importance of the‎ ‎criteria (inputs-outputs).in dea basic models‎, ‎challenges are zero‎ ‎and unequal weights of the criteria when decision‎- ‎making units are‎ ‎evaluated‎. ‎one of the strategies applied to deal with these problems‎ ‎is using common weights of the each input...

Testing linear combinations of normal group means with unequal variances and possibly unequal samples sizes using a t-statistic is a well known problem for which the effective degrees of freedom are unknown. ? and ? set forth their approximations based on the ratio of combinations of fourth moments, and their methodology remains the de facto standard. We propose a new approach that extends thei...

Many countries are involved in the “production” and overseas recruitment of care workers in a major international response to the “care crisis” affecting advanced industrialized economies. But the distribution of gains and losses from care-labour migration is becoming increasingly unequal, and the pressure to develop alternative policies is intensifying. The author assesses the relevance of dif...

In this article, we examine the mobility patterns of a group Italian young adults migrating to Australia in search new education, labour and lifestyle opportunities. The article represents contribution study link between youth unequal trajectories through elaboration conceptual framework based on theory epistemological fallacy that points growing disjuncture expectations individual autonomy dis...

Traditionally TCP bandwidth sharing has been investigated mainly by stochastic approaches due to its seemingly chaotic nature. Even though of great generality, the theories deal mainly with expectation values, which is prone to misinterpretation with respect to the Quality-of-Experience (QoE). We disassemble TCP operating conditions into dominating scenarios and show that bandwidth sharing alon...
