While making no attempt to bring about a complete reconciliation between opposing views, Keynes shows...

The papers selected for inclusion in this book discuss issues related to the... Technology transfer has expanded rapidly over the past 20 years in Western Europe, North America and the Pacific Rim.

Higher Education and Economic Growth
ISBN: 9789048157921 / Angielski / Miękka / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. After decades of effortless growth and prosperity, America's postsecondary institutions of education have come under increasing financial stress and waning public support. In part, this stress reflects a slowdown in the real rate of national economic growth and the loss of federal and state revenues for education generally. It also reflects a trend of state legislatures simply giving higher education an ever lower ranking on the list of funding priorities. Postsecondary educational institutions in the United States will continue to face increasing financial stress and waning public support as...

We consider that more and better impact evaluation will help...
