I provide evidence that firms send a negative signal on its non-repurchasing industry counterparts. This is consistent with competitive effects. These negative effects are common for mature firms and are sent by the largest repurchasing firm. The market attributes non-repurchasing mature firms as those ones, which do not maximize value for shareholders because managers have excess cash at their di
This paper explores the shifting role of slaughter and meat consumption in Bhutan as a result of the recent religionization of Bhutanese politics and as a case of religious nationalism. It is argued that there is a tension between customary meat consumption and traditional blood sacrifice and the Buddhist non-violent ritual practice of tsethar that is propagated as a central part of modern Bhutane
Höftprotesoperationer har blivit ett säkert och mycket framgångsrikt kirurgiskt ingrepp och lever upp till mycket av de förväntningar som patienterna har. Förbättring av material, protesdesign och kirurgiska tekniker har förlängt protesöverlevnaden påtagligt. Emellertid är icke optimal protesplacering och felaktigt val av komponentstorlekar känt för att öka risken för biomekaniska problem och ökatTotal hip arthroplasty (THA) has become a safe and very successful surgical intervention. A vast majority of patients get their expectations met. Improvement of materials, implant designs, and surgical techniques, have extended prosthetic survival. However, inferior placement and sizing of a hip prosthesis are known to increase the risk of mechanical failure, wear, and early loosening as well as p
By Marcelo Corrales Compagnucci, Janos Meszaros & Timo Minssen Empirical studies in behavioral economics have demonstrated how people are biased and often make poor decisions against their best interests. This has led policy makers to promote choice-preserving approaches, a.k.a. nudges. However, there has also been an increasingly vocal group of legal scholars who are interest in asking whethe
This chapter examines how prenatal diagnosis was discussed and interpreted when translated from laboratories and clinics into the public arena. It focusses on debates about policy and regulation in the early 1980s. Drawing on the concept of co-production the chapter argues that when groups outside the medical context discussed prenatal diagnosis, other values and norms were mobilized. Thus, in ordThis chapter examines how prenatal diagnosis was discussed and interpreted when translated from laboratories and clinics into the public arena.

Task level programming based on skills has often been proposed as a mean to decrease programming complexity of industrial robots. Several models are based on encapsulating complex motions into self-contained primitive blocks. A semantic skill is then defined as a deterministic sequence of these primitives. A major limitation is that existing frameworks do not support the coordination of concurrentTask level programming based on skills has often been proposed as a mean to decrease programming complexity of industrial robots.

Savannas are inherently “disturbed” ecosystems, but the regularly recurring disruptions play such a fundamental ecological role (Scholes and Archer, 1997) that “episodic events” rather than “disturbance” may the more apt terminology. From an atmospheric perspective, fire is the most significant of these episodic events. Fires shape community species composition; tree to grass ratio and nutrient re
How does violent conflict affect the spread of Covid-19? In this paper we analyze how violent conflict influences the adoption of preventative measures and infection rate in a very poor, conflict-affected country, Burkina Faso. We use a unique panel of 1,919 households surveyed during the first six months of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 and merge these data with indicators of violence at the muniHow does violent conflict affect the spread of Covid-19?

Declining bond yields and rising public debts have caused many economists to suggest raising the debt ceiling in the EU’s Stability and Growth Pact. Implicitly, they argue for replacing GDP as the anchor with the bond yield. We discuss the risks of such a shift. While such a change would provide short-term relief to highly indebted EU member states, it is based on the expectation that bond yields
