Justice in the Global Work Life: the Right to Know, To
Pathways to Sustainability: Evolution or Revolution?* Nicholas A. Ashford Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, MA 02139, USA Introduction The purposes of this chapter is to delve more deeply into the processes and determinants of technological, organisational, and social innovation and to discuss their implications for selecting instruments and policies to stimulate the kinds of innovation necessary for the transformation of industrial societies into sustainable ones. Sustainable development must be seen as a broad concept, incorporating concerns for the economy, the environment, and employment. All three are driven/affected by both technological innovation [Schumpeter, 1939] and globalised trade [Ekins et al., 1994; Diwan et al., 1997]. They are also in a fragile balance, are inter-related, and need to be addressed together in a coherent and mutually reinforcing way [Ashford, 2001]. Here we will argue for the attainment of ‘triple sustainability’ – improvements in competitiveness (or productiveness) and long-term dynamic efficiency, social cohesion (work/employment), and environment (including resource productivity, environmental pollution, and climate disruption)1. The figure below depicts the salient features and determinates of sustainability. They are, in turn, influenced by both public and private-sector initiatives and policies. Toxic Pollution, Resource Depletion & Climate Change environment Effects of environmental policies on employment, Trade and environment and health & safety Investment and environment Uncoordinated -

They have to deal with the lack of financial resources to apply digital solutions in their businesses. In Slovakia, Industry 4.0 plays an important role, especially in the mechanical engineering industry (MEI). This paper aims to identify the groups of financial ratios that can be used to measure the financial performance of the companies operating in the Slovak MEI. From the whole MEI, we selected the 236 largest non-financial corporations whose ranking we obtained according to the amount of generated revenues in 2017. Using factor analysis, from eleven traditional financial ratios, we extracted four independent factors that measure liquidity (equity to liabilities ratio, quick ratio, debt ratio, net working capital to assets ratio, current ratio), profitability (return on sales, return on investments), indebtedness (financial leverage, debt to equity ratio), and activity (assets turnover, current assets turnover) of the company. -

Fifty-six years ago, the first of us went to East Africa to teach. We went before the Peace Corps teachers – we are their proud predecessors! More than 600 of us went in the next ten years. In 1999, Ed Schmidt decided to find us all, and in two years he had located more than 400 of us. We are can-do folks. Our first reunion/conference was held in Washington DC only nine days after the 9/11 attacks. About 130 of us came to that stunned city. The Peace Corps had planned its 40th reunion for that same weekend. They cancelled, but we came. In 2015, at the Minneapolis Reunion, TEAAers voted to make the 2017 Reunion our last in-person gathering. -
