Whilst the details of an industrial policy to direct this change are important, without a visionary state taking a lead on social dialogue at national and local levels to ensure policies are responsive to the needs, capabilities and cultures of the people and places they will effect, the necessary transformation will fail. The UK has an appalling track record on managing deep industrial change in a just way. Given the critical juncture we are at, allowing markets to franticly impose change upon industries and communities is irresponsible. Leaving these inevitable changes to the whim of global market forces will only deepen existing political divides and accentuate unsustainable economic imbalances. It is important now more than ever that policy-makers take steps to understand the nuts and bolts of industrial transformations in practice, and how they can be shaped by the state, employers and unions representing the collective voice of the workers and communities affected. As a contribution to what is a significant challenge we have looked at three case studies of places in Europe that have experienced a major industrial change in recent years: Bilbao, in the Basque Country, Eindhoven in Holland and Iceland, to learn from their successes and failures and apply to a UK context. We found that: In Bilbao, strong public participation and local autonomy over policy and finance were ingredients for an impressive transformation of a city that experienced a devastating flood and intertwined social, economic and political crises. In Eindhoven, public investment has fostered a culture of cooperation within the business sector enabling innovations in health and social care among other new technologies to develop in synergy with the city’s industrial past. In Iceland, a dogged commitment to social provision and democratic accountability, supported by a strong union movement, has seen a country successfully navigate a potentially crippling financial and economic crisis with impressive levels of income and gender equality maintained. From these examples we identify four critical success factors for industrial change done well: People feel secure and have a stake in their local area. There is a strong social safety net to foster long-term opportunity in an area. There are genuine opportunities for participation in decision-making. There is proactive, positive interaction between state, unions and businesses. 4 We make a number of recommendations for the UK, including: setting the development of quality jobs as the test for success of the industrial strategy ensuring that plans for industrial strategy or economic development are overseen by a social partnership approach allowing unions to bargain with employers to maximise employment standards across sectors delivering a national entitlement to skills, to give everyone the confidence to adapt to changing demands making an increase in good jobs the clear test for local industrial strategies bringing together unions, employers and citizens at local level to develop a clear vision and plan for their area using local employment charters to drive the development of good work across regions using social value procurement to support high quality employment standards, local labour and supply chains and other community benefits. Industrial transformation of the kind that must happen over the coming decades must be treated as an opportunity to improve lives and livelihoods – but this will only be realised if a different approach is taken. Without an active state that is willing to set aside market ideology and work with people and places towards a shared goal, the crises that currently beset UK industry and many of the places that depend upon it are only likely to deepen. 5 Introduction Since the 2008 financial crash, industrial strategy has become an in-vogue topic among UK politicians, with a shared ambition across parties to boost productive activity and exports. But despite the growing consensus that industrial interventions are needed, economic policy over the same period has remained much the same. We have been locked into a ‘market knows best’ mind-set and are suffering the consequences, with the decline, flight and collapse of prominent firms making the news month on month (e.g. Interserve, British Steel). Processes of industrial transformation away from productive activities like manufacturing and towards a service-based economy have marked a huge shift in the makeup of the UK economy, but there has been a glaring lack of involvement by successive governments in managing this change, or cushioning the blow to affected workers and their communities. This abdication of responsibility and commitment to a “hands off” approach to industrial transition is of course an intervention of sorts: and the implications are felt and paid for across the economy. A decade of wage stagnation, work casualisation and personal debt growth are symptoms of a continued lack of any industrial plan. To meet this gap between rhetoric and action, many have put forward the need for a “mission driven” approach to industrial strategy – centring a plan on the ambition to solve specific and concrete societal, economic or technological challenges.1 But what is still so often missed out from these discussions is a strategy for addressing the specific challenges that lie underneath a guiding mission.

  • Classification of Icelandic Watersheds and Rivers to Explain Life History Strategies of Atlantic Salmon
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Siaurdur Gudjonsson for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Fisheries Science presented on May 17, 1990. Title: Classification of Icelandic Watersheds and Rivers to Explain Life History Strategies of Atlantic Salmon Abstract approved: 4 Redacted for Privacy Charles E. Warren A hierarchical classification system of Iceland's watersheds and rivers is presented. The classification is based on Iceland's substrate, climate, water, biota, and human cultural influences. The geological formations of Iceland are very different in character depending on their age and formation history. Three major types of formations occur: Tertiary, Plio-Pleistocene, and Pleistocene. These formations have different hydrological characters and different landscapes. There are also large differences in the climate within Iceland. Four major river types are found in Iceland: spring-fed rivers in Pleistocene areas, direct runoff rivers in Plio-Pleistocene areas, direct runoff rivers in Tertiary areas and wetland heath rivers in Tertiary areas. Eleven biogeoclimatic regions occur in Iceland, each having a different watershed type. The classification together with life history theory can explain the distributions, abundances, and life history strategies of Icelandic salmonids. Oceanic conditions must also be considered to explain the life history patterns of anadromous populations. When the freshwater and marine habitat is stable, the life history patterns of individuals in a population tend to be uniform, one life history form being most common. In an unstable environment many life history forms occur and the life span of one generation is long. The properties of the habitat can further explain which life history types are present.

Abstract With very few exceptions, factual and fictionalized the portrayals of the police and law enforcement are almost always situated in urban settings. Only ‘real’ police work occurs in the cities while policing in rural and remote areas is often depicted as less critical, or in some cases non-existent. In a similar fashion, much of the current academic literature has focused on police work in urban environments. It is only in the past five years that the academic focus has turned its attention to the experiences of police officers who live and work in rural and remote areas. To date, no such studies have yet examined the work of police officers in rural and remote areas of Iceland.

Printing: Háskólaprent, Fálkagata 2, 107 Reykjavík Reykjavík, Iceland, October 2018 For Mary and Nicholas Abstract Iceland’s lavas preserve a unique record of Earth’s magnetic field for the past sixteen million years, and were used by early pioneers of palaeomagnetism to test several concepts which became crucial to modern geoscience. Iceland represents one of very few high latitude (>60◦) locations where long sequences of lavas suitable for palaeo- magnetic research are accessible. Since the early 1950s, research in Iceland has produced a large collection of palaeomagnetic data which has not previously been collected into a comprehensive database. ICEPMAG (http://icepmag.org/) com- piles palaeomagnetic data published in journal articles, academic theses and other databases from over 9,200 sampling sites in Iceland - one of the world’s largest col- lections of palaeomagnetic data from a single location.

  • Chairman's Speech to the Australian Coalition of Service Industries
    Australian Coalition of Service Industries Speech to Council Dinner Canberra 17 June 1998 by Gary Banks Chairman Productivity Commission I have been asked to speak on the reform agenda in Australia and what needs to be done to provide an environment that will lift the performance and competitiveness of Australia’s service industries. The main points I want to make are these: There are things that governments can do to encourage the development of service industries in ways that will improve the living standards of Australians in the next century. Chiefly, these involve winding back barriers to the competitiveness of service industries and indeed other industries as well. But merely pointing out what governments can do is not sufficient. It will also require: • groundwork to ensure that the community is prepared to accept worthwhile reform and • effort from the service industries themselves to support the reform process and improve their own performance. In the midst of the Asian ‘meltdown’ and the wash-up from the Queensland election, these points assume some significance. The service sector It would be a daunting task to attempt to cover with any authority all the activities that comprise the service sector. One of the features of the sector is its diversity. It includes such contrasting activities as telecommunications, cleaning, electricity generation, corner-store retailing, tourism and financial services. Services vary enormously in their application of technology, capital and skill requirements, orientation toward international trade and so on. While there are common elements, what is of concern to one service industry may not always be of concern to another service industry.
