  • 7. Megaprojects
    7. Megaprojects The Plan is intended to foster long-term economic growth and enhance the quality of life for Louisiana citizens by identifying efficient and effective investments and policies. As part of this effort, the Plan identifies major transportation improvements or “megaprojects” that have been proposed throughout the state. For the purposes of the Plan, a megaproject is a very expensive or large scale transportation improvement that would have a regional or statewide impact and would require special funding outside of normal DOTD funding mechanisms. A transportation improvement included as a megaproject in the Plan may be eligible for further study and possibly implementation, should additional state or federal funding become available. The list of megaprojects and their prioritization are further described below and included fully in Appendix F. 7.1 Highlights 113 Total Megaprojects • RPOs were presented with 113 megaprojects for Plan consideration. Priority A Megaprojects • Priority A has 20 megaprojects for a total of $4.8 billion ($3.7 billion from DOTD). These can be funded under Scenarios 3 or 4, as outlined in Chapter 5. Priorty B Megaprojects • Priority B has 19 megaprojects for a total of $5.8 billion ($3 billion from DOTD). These can only be funded under Scenario 4, as outlined in Chapter 5. 7.2 Megaproject Development A key component of the Plan is selecting the right mix of projects and project types that best achieve intended outcomes, goals, and objectives. Transportation agencies must balance the requirements of sustaining their existing system pavements and bridges against “modernization” improvements (safety, wider lanes, ITS) versus expansion investments (new construction, additional capacity).

  • China's 2010 Work Forum on Tibet: a Turn Towards Meeting Basic Human Needs?
    CHINA'S 2010 WORK FORUM ON TIBET: A TURN TOWARDS MEETING BASIC HUMAN NEEDS? Gabriel Lafitte February 2010 [email protected] PRELUDE TO A NEW APPROACH: POLICY EXHAUSTION Official Chinese policy on Tibet has long had two strands -on one hand development, on the other stability/security. Few seem to notice they are contradictory, giving with one hand, taking with the other; creating opportunities only to restrict access to them, to those who can be trusted, who in Tibet almost always are Chinese immigrants. The internal contradictions of promoting growth while restricting Tibetan agency inevitably lead to Tibetans feeling excluded, while the promised growth benefits only the Chinese immigrants, from top officials down to Sichuanese expeasant building labourers. This contradiction is at the root of Tibetan frustrations, and is compounded by the internal contradiction of the propaganda work of the new elite in Tibet. The security state China has built in Tibet is run by a new elite class of cadres that peddles a narrative which follows a predictable trajectory, a cycle which repeats over the years. Tibetans and their friends around the world are very familiar with one part of this operatic cycle, in which the splittist Dalai clique is denounced in harsh, lurid language. This never fails to attract more money from Beijing to strengthen the security state. Then the elite gradually shifts to assuring Beijing and anyone else listening, that the Tibetan masses generally are patriotic, and support the party and want nothing to do with the tiny but ever present splittist enemy within. Eventually, through endless repetition the party elite in Tibet and in Beijing come to believe their own propaganda narrative.

  • REDESIGNING AREA/COUNTRY STUDIES Hans Kuijper
    COMPARATIVE COUNTRY STUDIES REDESIGNING AREA/COUNTRY STUDIES Hans Kuijper Area/country studies like Turkology, Iranology, Indology, Sinology, Koreanol- ogy and Japanology are fundamentally flawed. They have an explanandum, but do not have a distinctive explanans. On the one hand, the practitioners of this kind of study tacitly claim to be knowledgeable about anything concerning the area or country of their interest (after all, Sinology is the study of China, just as sociology is the study of society). On the other hand, they reluctantly admit that it is impossible to be an expert on, say, the economy, polity and society of the country, given the prodigious amount of information available about these domains, the conflicting schools of thought, and the increasing awareness of the complexity of the world. The premises of this paper, meant to be also foun- dational to IR/Global Studies, are: (a) proper understanding of a country is only possible if a truly interdisciplinary approach is taken, and (b) the insights of computer, network and complex systems scientists could be profitably used in doing so. Rethinking area/country studies in a global context, the author concludes that the subject, being of great importance for international peace and security, should be high on the agenda of the higher-education discussion. Keywords: area/country studies, scientific collaboration, computer science, systems science, higher education. Introduction The School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), in London, the Leiden University Institute for Area Studies (LIAS), the National Institute for Oriental Languages and Civilizations (INALCO), in Paris, the German Institute of Global and Area Studies (GIGA), in Hamburg, the Institute of Oriental Studies (IOS) of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS), in Moscow, and the Japan Consortium for Area Studies (JCAS), in Tokyo, are some of the institutions solely devoted to area/country studies.
