What form of power do they epitomise? Why have they become so prominent? Are they set to be as important for the globalisation of services as for manufactured goods? Jean-Christophe Graz draws on international pol- itical economy and cognate fields to present strong theoretical argu- ments, compelling research, and surprising evidence on the role of standards in the global expansion of services, with in-depth studies of their institutional environment and cases including the insurance indus- try and business process outsourcing in India. The power of standards resembles a form of transnational hybrid authority, in which ambiguity should be seen as a generic attribute, defining not only the status of public and private actors involved in standardisation and regulation but also the scope of issues concerned and the space in which such authority is recognised when complying to standards. This book is also available in Open Access.

This on-line solution extends the traditional paper questionnaire with functionality to inform the order of questions, the logic to guide question relevance and inconsistency checks to validate responses. Large scale international surveys are typically conducted by research agencies in multiple countries using CAWI systems. However, these demand for non-proprietary and platform independent questionnaire definitions that work throughout multiple survey systems. In this thesis, we conduct a comparative analysis at two levels: one for the different Extensible Markup Language (XML) authoring solutions that capture questionnaire features; and another to explore the architecture styles for the most popular CAWI solutions.
