In this article, the industrialization process can be regarded as the transition from traditional to modern and more coercive work organizations. Workers are heterogeneous (autonomous or non-autonomous) and according to their preferences they choose between these two organizational forms. In addition, preferences evolve through intergenerational transmission mechanisms. This setting allows for ...

Article history: Received 30 September 2010 Received in revised form 18 September 2011 Accepted 18 September 2011 Available online 24 September 2011 This paper presents a few stylized facts on the patterns of China's industrialization by computing a set of multi-dimensional measures on industrial concentration, regional specialization, and clustering based on census data at the firm level in 19...

Section 1: Introduction . Industrialization has an important role to play in the process of economic development. The importance of industrialisation as a means for achieving rapid growth and prosperity had been recognised in the development strategy of independent India. The bold program of industrialization in India was started with the second five-year plan by realizing the need of the econo...

Ten able adults with autism or Asperger syndrome and 10 normal volunteers were PET scanned while watching animated sequences. The animations depicted two triangles moving about on a screen in three different conditions: moving randomly, moving in a goal-directed fashion (chasing, fighting), and moving interactively with implied intentions (coaxing, tricking). The last condition frequently elici...

Aging has negative effects on motor and cognitive functions, therefore finding appropriate strategies to prevent the decline of these functions is necessary. It seems that cardiovascular fitness obtained by aerobic activity is a physiological mediator that explains the relationship between physical activity and improved cognitive performance. The aim of this research was to assess the effect...

Using a referent detection paradigm, we examined whether listeners can determine the object speakers are referring to by using the temporal alignment between the motion speakers impose on objects and their labeling utterances. Stimuli were created by videotaping speakers labeling a novel creature. Without being explicitly instructed to do so, speakers moved the creature during labeling. Traject...

In this paper, a mathematical model is proposed and analysed to study the simultaneous effect of industrialization, population and pollution on the depletion of a renewable resource. Criteria for local stability, global stability and instability are obtained. It is shown that if the densities of industrialization, population and pollution increase, then the density of the resource biomass decre...
