Smaller World, Bigger Issues
Through the effects of technological advances and improvements in transportation, our world is becoming smaller day-by-day. Issues such as economic growth, unemployment, inequality in several levels and poverty are getting more important in different aspects.
Income Distribution & Energy Poverty: A General Overview
Energy has become a vital and driving factor in the modern global environment, impacting every aspect of human existence. The significance of this reaches across all facets of civilization, encompassing electricity generation, heating, transportation, and industrial activities. However, substantial differences in the availability and utilization of energy contribute to the basis of internal disparities, which have an impact on the welfare of communities globally. This pioneering research reveals the fundamental factors behind these disparities, providing valuable perspectives on the significant influence of income distribution and economic inequities. The book examines the relationship between income distribution and access to energy, revealing how economic discrepancies impact the availability of energy supplies. Moreover, it highlights the urgent need for laws and efforts that specifically target these unfair practices, with the goal of achieving a fairer allocation of energy resources and improving the general well-being of communities worldwide.
The Turkish Straits Treaties And Conventions
The Turkish Straits are one of the most significant waterways in the world. The straits serve as a link between the Black Sea and the Mediterranean, connecting Europe and Asia. The Straits have been a crucial passage for trade and commerce for centuries. However, their strategic location also makes them a potential chokepoint in times of war or conflict. The legal and political status of the Turkish Straits has been a subject of concern for many countries, especially those that rely on these waterways for their trade and security. In an attempt to regulate the legal and political status of the Turkish Straits, which has been a topic of discussion and debate for many years, international treaties and agreements have been used to establish an agreed regime among states. The aim of this book is to provide an overview of the legal and political status of the Turkish Straits. The book analyzes the various international treaties and conventions that regulate the use of the straits and their implications for the parties involved.

Measuring the Benefits of Energy Access
Impact evaluation has gained recognition over the last decade as an essential component of project development. Impact evaluation details how and to what extent policies and project interventions contribute to socioeconomic welfare gains or losses for society. Such evaluations are also important for identifying key lessons for future policies and investments. In the case of modern energy access, the measurement of costs is fairly straightforward. However, measuring the benefits to society is more difficult and might involve implementing national or regional surveys. Past efforts have often underestimated the complex linkages of benefits produced by programs involved in providing electricity ...
Introduction to the Theory and Application of Data Envelopment Analysis
1 DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was initially developed as a method for assessing the comparative efficiencies of organisational units such as the branches of a bank, schools, hospital departments or restaurants. The key in each case is that they perform feature which makes the units comparable the same function in terms of the kinds of resource they use and the types of output they produce. For example all bank branches to be compared would typically use staff and capital assets to effect income generating activities such as advancing loans, selling financial products and carrying out banking transactions on behalf of their clients. The efficiencies assessed in t...
Understanding Poverty
In spite of an unprecedented period of growth and prosperity, the poverty rate in the United States remains high relative to the levels of the early 1970s and relative to those in many industrialized countries today. Understanding Poverty brings the problem of poverty in America to the fore, focusing on its nature and extent at the dawn of the twenty-first century.
Social Exclusion in Later Life
Drawing on interdisciplinary, cross-national perspectives, this open access book contributes to the development of a coherent scientific discourse on social exclusion of older people. The book considers five domains of exclusion (services; economic; social relations; civic and socio-cultural; and community and spatial domains), with three chapters dedicated to analysing different dimensions of each exclusion domain. The book also examines the interrelationships between different forms of exclusion, and how outcomes and processes of different kinds of exclusion can be related to one another. In doing so, major cross-cutting themes, such as rights and identity, inclusive service infrastructure...
