The quantification of how aspects of a job are valued by employees sheds light on the potential for labor market reform in Japan. Using a nationwide sample of 1,046 working-age adults, we conduct a choice experiment that examines individuals’ willingness to trade wages against job characteristics such as the extent of overtime, job security, the possibility of work transfer and relocation. Our results suggest that: i) workers have high WTP (willingness to pay) to avoid extreme overtime and work transfer, ii) women have higher WTP than men, and iii) higher WTP for women are driven in part by feelings of guilt.
From a globally renowned expert on Russian military strategy and national security, The Russian Way of Deterrence investigates Russia's approach to coercion (both deterrence and compellence), comparing and contrasting it with the Western conceptualization of this strategy. Strategic deterrence, or what Dmitry (Dima) Adamsky calls deterrence à la Russe, is one of the main tools of Russian statecraft. Adamsky deftly describes the genealogy of the Russian approach to coercion and highlights the cultural, ideational, and historical factors that have shaped it in the nuclear, conventional, and informational domains. Drawing on extensive research on Russian strategic culture, Adamsky highlights s...

Offering a competitive strategy to defeat authoritarians' all-domain warfare, this book suggests a new combined effects and influence framework for democracies to employ before deterrence fails. Breaking new ground in this comprehensive study, retired Brigadier General Thomas A. Drohan reforms an entrenched legacy concept-coercive compellence and deterrence. The book's framework synthesizes brute force, coercion, combined arms, and concepts of operations into combined effects and concepts of influence, including narrative warfare with cognitive exploits. The survey of competitive strategy at the beginning of the book spans a time frame from the thinking of ancient civilizations all the way t...
'De Russische afschrikmethode' van Dmitry (Dima) Adamsky is een indrukwekkende studie van hoe Rusland de wereld angst aanjaagt. De Russische inval in Oekraïne en het massaal verspreiden van desinformatie, zoals de kritiek op de Week van de Lentekriebels, zijn voorbeelden van Russische afschrikmethodes waarmee Rusland onrust probeert te creëren. In De Russische afschrikmethode toont Dmitry (Dima) Adamsky, expert op het gebied van militaire strategie en nationale veiligheid, op een toegankelijke wijze Rusland zijn militaire en strategische kundigheid inzet om vriend en vijand af te schrikken en biedt een inkijkje in de historische, culturele en psychologische factoren die deze aanpak zo uniek maken. De Russische afschrikmethode is een must-read voor de lezers van Rob de Wijk, Huib Modderkolk en iedereen met een interesse in geschiedenis die meer te weten wil komen over hoe Rusland zowel vijanden weet af te schrikken als bondgenoten weet te beïnvloeden.
