It is the fifth of the Romance languages in terms of number of speakers. It is spoken as a first language by somewhere around 24 to 26 million people, and enjoys official status in Romania, Moldova and the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina (Serbia). The official form of the Moldovan language in the Republic of Moldova is identical to the official form of Romanian save for a minor rule in spelling. Romanian is also an official or administrative language in various communities and organisations (such as the Latin Union and the European Union – the latter as of 2007). It is a melodious language that has basically the same sounds as English with a few exceptions. These entered the language because of the slavic influence and of many borrowing made from the neighboring languages. It uses the Latin alphabet which makes it easy to spell and read.

Few people realize that the principles determining the general scale of prices are quite distinct from the principles determining the individual prices themselves . Few realize , for instance , that the money price of any commodity has to do not only with that commod ity but also with money , and that , therefore , a monetary element enters into every price . The object of this book is to state , as simply as possible , the general principles which fix the scale of prices , and to show the manner in which these principles apply to the present “ high cost of living .

    Codebook for Correlates of War 3 International Governmental Organizations Data Set Version 3.0 Jon Pevehouse Department of Political Science University of Wisconsin – Madison Roseanne McManus Department of Political Science Penn State University Timothy Nordstrom Department of Political Science University of Mississippi July 2019 1 I. Overview of the data sets The data in the Correlates of War IGO data sets capture state memberships in the network of international governmental organizations (IGOs). The expanded version 3.0 updates the original Wallace and Singer (1970) data set and version 2.1 to provide membership information from 1816- 2014. Similar to version 2.1, version 3.0 comprises three different data sets, each with a different unit of analysis. First, version 3.0a contains membership data based on the IGO-year unit of analysis. Thus, each line of data in 3.0a represents a specific IGO’s membership in a given year (e.g. the U.N. in 1970). Second, version 3.0b presents membership data based on the country-year. This data will allow the research to see which IGOs an individual country belonged to in any annual period (e.g. Canada in 1992). Finally, version 3.0c aggregates the individual country memberships into joint dyadic memberships. This version of the data set presents shared memberships for each dyad and which individual IGOs are included in a dyad’s membership profile (e.g., Thailand-India in 2000). II. Defining a Population of IGOs IGOs have become a ubiquitous part of international life. IGOs are created to deal with political, economic, social, cultural, and environmental problems.

  • The Latin Union Experience and the Lolr: the French Position
    Annual ESHET Conference Nicolas Barbaroux Antwerp - 2017- May 18-20 (First Draft- Do not quote) The Latin Union experience and the LoLR: the French position "These movements in the market for precious metals became the immediate cause, in 1865, of the so-called Latin Currency Union between France, Belgium, Switzerland and Italy (...) Other European countries had at that time, either a silver currency, as in Germany and Scandinavia or a depreciated paper currency, as in Austria and Russia. If those countries had gradually attached themselves to the Latin Union, with its free minting of silver and gold at a legally established ratio then the traditional ratio between gold and silver might possibly have been preserved. Adhesion to the Latin Union was, in fact, contemplated by Germany shortly before the outbreak of the war in 1870, but owing to the war the plan never came to fruition." (Wicksell, 1935 (1906): 38) 1. Introduction In the aftermath of the E.U sovereign debt crisis, a central bank's duties debate emerged among bankers and policymakers mostly in E.U. This fundamental debate started in 2013 when the Bundesbank appealed the European Central bank (ECB) to the European Court of Justice (ECJ) owing to the adoption of the 2012 Outright Monetary Transactions (OMT) program. Despite the 2015 June (16th) decision from ECJ, the German central bank saw this freedom of central bank's action as incompatible with the Maastricht Treaty, namely the no bailout rule (art.12). Beyond the ECJ's decision, the Germans (re)opened a structural controversy on the central bank's duty, among them the one of Lender of Last Resort (hereafter LoLR) when a monetary union is concerned.

  • Transport Infrastructure Development Performance
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia Engineering 178 ( 2017 ) 319 – 329 16th Conference on Reliability and Statistics in Transportation and Communication, RelStat’2016, 19-22 October, 2016, Riga, Latvia Transport Infrastructure Development Performance Oksana Skorobogatova, Irina Kuzmina-Merlino* Transport and Telecommunication Institute, 1 Lomonosova str., Riga, LV-1019, Latvia Abstract Transport infrastructure is an integral part of the transport system of any city or state. In connection with the development of society and intensification of international relations due to the globalization processes, the importance of transport as a factor for economic and social development has enhanced. Various aspects of the activities related to the development of transport infrastructure have increasingly become the objects of scientific researches. Transportation as an economic factor is a measure of economic activity and at the same time transportation is a reflection of economic activity. So, the questions about transport infrastructure performance measurement and relationship between transport infrastructure and economic growth are the subjects for discussions in both academic and non-academic circles. This paper highlights the role of the transportation industry in economic development of Latvia, describes the concept of transport infrastructure as an important part of the state transport system, and estimates the employed international approaches to the measurement of performance of transport infrastructure development. The article focuses on the necessity for the development of the methodology of measuring the transport infrastructure performance, that should be applied systematically and that would be generally helpful to all responsible people making transportation-related decisions. © 20172017 The The Authors.
