Labour demand is derived demand, that is, labour is hired in order to produce goods which are sold in the product market. For this reason, labour demand is always connected to the product market, especially in terms of the degree of competition, whether from foreign or domestic producers. In this ch[r]
In spite of the damage that small mammals cause to woody plants, only minimal attention is paid to research of their ecology in the forest environ- ment. Methods for the estimation of a risk of ro- dent damage do not e[r]
We didn't choose to be forced out of a state of joy and happiness, into a state of emotional pain. The decision was out of our hands, against our will, and usually quite abrupt. Even though we may have been told we were responsible for what was happening to us, w[r]

The core assumption underlying our approach, which in the context of cognition and child lan- guage has been proposed by Mintz (2003), is that words of a particular part of speech often have the same left and right n[r]
The issue is discussed by Ilmarinen (2006): “The significant increase in individual differences makes a good retirement age hard to estimate and generalize (…). Finding an optimal and justified period of retirement along the course of life is
Genetic improvement of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is to a certain extent limited by a poor knowledge of genetic variability. Estimation of variability is highly important and is always considered as the first step in any crop improvement programme. With this in view, the current study was pl[r]

The perspective of managers and workers regarding con- tracting-out services has not been widely documented internationally. In Canada, it was found that the contract- ing of more than 8000 workers in British Columbia since 2002 has produced more negative effects than pos[r]
A speaker’s linguistic strategies (tension or relaxation, vigilance or conde- scension, etc.) are oriented (except in rare cases) not so much by the chances of being understood or misunderstood (communicative efficiency or the chances of[r]

The overview of the three legislations shows that they starkly vary concerning the step-by-step principle. Brazil does not have it at all, the US has it as a general princi- ple of policy, and China has it as a specific rule for the testing [r]
We have now seen how to solve least squares problems in several variables. Once again, we might ask: “when might I expect this procedure to fail?” Based on our previous experience with the solution of m equations in m unknowns and the formation of inverses, we expect[r]
This paper addresses the energy efficiency problem of household customers by observing and responding accordingly to the condition of the upstream grid; the key condition is the market price which is passed to the end-use customers though a new market entity, namely load aggregators.
"In Europe," said Thomas Jefferson, "the object is to make the most of their land, labour being abundant; here it is to make the most of our labour, land being abundant." It was in the U[r]

The results indicate that the network system in the national innovation system is important for entrepreneurship development. The domestic market of Taiwan is not as large as Japan and new entrepreneurs have to face global market challenges.

An example is the suicide rates in Sweden and Spain from 1980 to 2005. In the early 1990s, Sweden underwent a severe bank crisis, resulting in a very rapid rise in unemployment, but suicide rates were unaffected, falling steadily over this period. This contrasts with the[r]
