Research at the Bank encompasses analytical work designed to produce results with wide applica- bility across countries or sectors. Bank research, in contrast to academic research, is directed toward recognized and emerging policy issues and is focused on yielding better policy advice. Although motivated by policy problems, Bank research addresses longer-term concerns rather than the imme- diate needs of a particular Bank lending operation or of a particular country or sector report. Activities classified as research at the Bank do not, therefore, include the economic and sector work and policy analysis carried out by Bank staff to support operations in particular countries. Economic and sector work and policy studies take the product of research and adapt it to specific projects or country settings, whereas Bank research contributes to the intellectual foundations of future lending opera- tions and policy advice. Both activities-research and economic and sector work-are critical to the design of successful projects and effective policy.

    COMMENT Some Thoughts on the Organization of legal Practice in Ethiopia DOI http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/mlr.v11i1.8 Tameru Wondim Agegnehu . Abstract The art of arguing cases evolved in Ethiopia as elsewhere as a personal skill and to this day, legal service in Ethiopia is a sole practice that has not been able to organize itself into a law firm1. Lawyers have not been able to take advantage of partnership models under the Ethiopian Commercial Code of 1960 as in other countries, either because of concocted legal mysticism or because of the laxity of legal service in the country that did not call for robust or specialized and organized law firms. The history of law firms in other countries indicates that the evolution proceeded through the General Partnership to Limited Partnership (LP) and finally culminating on the Limited Liability Partnership (LLP) which started in the USA and spread out to the rest of the world in the 1990s. It is now time to think in terms of organizing law firms in Ethiopia, and the Committee entrusted with a duty to revamp the Commercial Code of Ethiopia must see to it that the section on Business Organizations included the LLP to accommodate professional business associations including the legal practice. 2 Key terms Legal practice, limited liability partnership, non-commercial professional partnership, Commercial Code, Ethiopia ______________ 1. Background: Lawyering in Ethiopia, 1940s Onward As elsewhere lawyering started as a personal skill fit for sole practice and continued as such in Ethiopia long after the basis for its legal recognition was .

I thank Professor Bina Agarwal for sharing with us the speech she delivered at the Balzan Prizewinners’ Interdisciplinary Forum held in Berne on 16 November 2017. I also thank the International Balzan Prize Foundation for giving us permission to publish the speech. As background, I share with our readers the citation highlighting the reasons given by the Foundation for awarding her the 2017 International Balzan Prize for Gender Studies: For challenging established premises in economics and the social sciences by using an innovative gender perspective; for enhancing the visibility and empowerment of rural women in the Global South; for opening new intellectual and political pathways in key areas of gender and development. This thoughtful and concise statement, and the bibliography published on Balzan’s website (http://www.balzan.org/en/prizewinners/bina-agarwal), highlights the originality and excellence of Bina Agarwal’s life time research, and her remarkably effective engagement with policy and legal change. I believe her contributions offer to economists a new paradigm on the economics of human and sustainable development, and institutional analysis. Let me stress some points which I find especially striking. Bina Agarwal has done sustained pioneering research not just in one field of economics but in several major fields, from a political economy and gender & Alberto Quadrio Curzio [email protected] 1 Universita` Cattolica, Milano, Italy 2 Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei, Roma, Italy 123 Econ Polit perspective.

  • AFRICAN LITERATURE and the ENVIRONMENT: a STUDY in POSTCOLONIAL ECOCRITICISM By
    AFRICAN LITERATURE AND THE ENVIRONMENT: A STUDY IN POSTCOLONIAL ECOCRITICISM By Cajetan N. Iheka A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of English – Doctor of Philosophy 2015 ABSTRACT AFRICAN LITERATURE AND THE ENVIRONMENT: A STUDY IN POSTCOLONIAL ECOCRITICISM By Cajetan N. Iheka African Literature and the Environment: A Study in Postcolonial Ecocriticism , examines how African literary texts document, critique, and offer alternative visions on ecological crises such as the Niger-Delta oil pollution and the dumping of toxic wastes in African waters. The study challenges the anthropocentricism dominating African environmental literary scholarship and addresses a gap in mainstream ecocriticism which typically occludes Africa’s environmental problems. While African literary criticism often focuses on impacts of environmental problems on humans, my dissertation, in contrast, explores the entanglements of humans and nonhumans. The study contributes to globalizing ecocriticism, expands the bourgeoning corpus of ecological investigations in African literary criticism, and participates in efforts to foster interdisciplinary connections between the humanities and the sciences. Following the lead of postcolonial ecocritics, like Rob Nixon, who have pressed the need for dialogue between ecocriticism and postcolonialism, Chapter One interprets Frantz Fanon’s Wretched of the Earth , Homi Bhabha’s Location of Culture, and Gayatri Spivak’s A Critique of Postcolonial Reason as an

  • Geoffrey Ronoh Seeks to Conquer the Marathon Distance in Prague
    PRESS RELEASE 30 April 2015 Geoffrey Ronoh seeks to conquer the marathon distance in Prague Kenya’s conveyor belt of world-class runners produced yet another new name in 2015 as Geoffrey Ronoh became last year’s rising star. Signed as a pacemaker in the Mattoni Olomouc Half Marathon, he famously snatched victory, leaving behind superstars Wilson Kipsang and Dennis Kimetto. If Ronoh can transform the kind of form he showed last summer onto the marathon distance then he could produce some performance in Sunday’s Volkswagen Prague Marathon. While possessing to date a modest personal best of 2:15:51, Ronoh is justifiably considered one of the favourites. However, the fastest runner in the field has a PB that is almost ten minutes faster than Ronoh’s: Ethiopia’s Deribe Robi ran 2:06:06 in Dubai earlier this year and leads a field of nine sub 2:10 runners in Prague. As for the women’s race, Ethiopians are expected to lead the chase for the title. Five of them show personal bests of sub 2:25 and Koren Jelela is the fastest of this quintet with 2:22:43. The Volkswagen Prague Marathon had its inaugural edition exactly 20 years ago. The race has developed into one of the world’s best quality marathon events and is an IAAF Gold Label Road Race. While 985 marathon runners competed back in 1995 this year organisers have once again a capacity field of 10,000 entries. Bib numbers sold out already half a year ago. “The Volkswagen Prague Marathon is an unbelievable success story.
