O período de análise da pesquisa compreende os anos entre 1997 e 2002, focando a demanda por materiais elétricos. O trabalho contempla a revisão da literatura pertinente ao assunto; a realização de uma pesquisa de campo com os varejistas de materiais de construção; a utilização de dados secundários diversos; e a estimação do potencial de mercado através da utilização de modelos hierárquicos lineares. O modelo proposto compõe-se de quatro partes. A primeira estima o volume de emprego no varejo de materiais de construção em cada município, com base na massa salarial dos municípios e no dinamismo populacional das microrregiões e mesorregiões paulistas. Para tanto, utiliza-se de modelo hierárquico em três níveis. A segunda parte estima a receita do varejo de materiais de construção com base no emprego gerado por estes estabelecimentos, utilizando-se de modelo hierárquico em dois níveis. A terceira parte, com base na pesquisa de campo, relaciona a receita do varejo ao potencial de mercado para o atacado. Por fim, na última parte se valida a estimativa, comparando-a ao faturamento de um atacadista de referência. Os resultados encontrados confirmam a adequação do modelo proposto. Ainda, as pesquisas realizadas, sejam elas através da coleta de dados diretos ou indiretos, apontam para a importância do atacado, principalmente como fornecedor do pequeno varejo, fortalecido este último pela estabilização econômica. Assim, mesmo em vista do acirramento do ambiente competitivo, fruto do fortalecimento do varejo e do desejo da ampliação das vendas diretas por parte dos fabricantes, o atacado preserva sua importância na economia. Por fim, observou-se que a distribuição espacial do potencial de mercado relativo não divergia significativamente da distribuição da densidade do emprego estimado e da distribuição da densidade da receita líquida de revenda do varejista estimada, sugerindo que estas variáveis possam ser utilizadas como variáveis proxies. / This paper is a study on the marketing potential of wholesale companies based on the retail of building supplies, in the São Paulo state municipalities, during the 1997 - 2002 timeperiods. The focus of this study is on the demand for power electrical supplies. The study comprehends: a literature review; the conduction of a field research together with building supplies retailers; the employment of several secondary data; and, an estimation of the market potential with the application of linear hierarchical models. The presented model has been developed in four steps. First, with the application of a three level hierarchical model, employment volume is estimated on the building supplies retailing for each municipality. This is based on the total wage and salary income of each municipality and, on the dynamism of the population in the microregions and the mesoregions of São Paulo state. Second, with a two level hierarchical model, retail sales revenue is estimated based on the employment volume generated by the retailing business. Third, based on a field research, a relationship between retail sales revenue and the market potential for the wholesale business is established. At last, the determined market potential is validated when compared to the annual sales of a wholesaler of reference. The verified results validate the application of the presented model. Either by means of direct or indirect data collection, the conducted research highlights the importance of the wholesale business, mainly as supplier for the retailing business, where this latter has increased with the stability of the economy. Thus, even in face of a tough environment competition, due to the strengthening of the retail business and the desire on the part of the manufacturers to expand direct sales, the wholesale business still retains its importance on the economy. Finally, it was observed that the spatial distribution of a determined market potential does not differ significantly from the distribution of the estimated employment density nor from the distribution of the estimated resale net revenue density of the retailer, which suggests that these variables may be used as proxies.

145	Food corporations and government rethinking food waste strategies in Johannesburg City Pheto, Bokang January 2018 (has links) Global nations are awakening to the realisation and manifestation of actual food insecurity. Voices which advocate for food security have always been there but were overshadowed by corporate ignorance and overpopulation. Corporate food waste plays a major role in contributing to food insecurity although the spotlight is hardly put on them. As the economic hub of South Africa, the City of Johannesburg (CoJ) must take the lead in rethinking food waste reduction strategies in food corporations selling fruits and vegetables where the most waste occurs in the country. The level of fruit and vegetable wastage should decline in order to counter the adverse effects of food waste. The aim of this study is to establish strategic ways to decrease fruit and vegetable wastage at corporate level in the CoJ. This is achieved by determining contributing factors to food waste including improving food waste reduction models with the intervention and collaboration of food and wholesale stores as well as government. Face-to-face interviews, online surveys and a case study were methods used to answer the study objective. Responses from the field work show that many fruit and vegetable customers opt for conventional or ‘ordinary’ looking foods than ‘wonky’ looking ones. Also, many of the food stores do not have food waste reduction models to guide them, leading to a lot of food being dumped. Furthermore, the food health and safety criteria seem to be a leading contributor to food waste. These results indicate that food waste reduction is also important at pre-consumer stages. On this basis, it is recommended that a solid partnership between food corporations and Johannesburg city is formed in solidarity against food waste. Serious measures must be put in place in order to minimise fruit and vegetable wastage on both sides. These changes have potential to have an immense impact on the economy, environment and society. Further research should be undertaken to identify other factors that could be helpful in the quest to limit food waste in food corporations. / Development Studies / M.A. (Development Studies) Fruit and vegetables Food corporate waste CoJ, food corporations Retail and wholesale Food waste reduction Food security Food waste management Food waste measurement Landfill Policy Indigenous knowledge Strategies Benefits Wonky foods Reverse supply chain 394.120968221 Food waste -- Social aspects
146	Essays on regulatory impact in electricity and internet markets Roderick, Thomas Edward 26 June 2014 (has links) This dissertation details regulation's impact in networked markets, notably in deregulated electricity and internet service markets. These markets represent basic infrastructure in the modern economy; their innate networked structures make for rich fields of economic research on regulatory impact. The first chapter models deregulated electricity industries with a focus on the Texas market. Optimal economic benchmarks are considered for markets with regulated delivery and interrelated network costs. Using a model of regulator, consumer, and firm interaction, I determine the efficiency of the current rate formalization compared to Ramsey-Boiteux prices and two-part tariffs. I find within Texas's market increases to generator surplus up to 55% of subsidies could be achieved under Ramsey-Boiteux pricing or two-part tariffs, respectively. The second chapter presents a framework to analyze dynamic processes and long-run outcomes in two-sided markets, specifically dynamic platform and firm investment incentives within the internet-service platform/content provision market. I use the Ericson-Pakes framework applied within a platform that chooses fees on either side of its two-sided market. This chapter determines the impact of network neutrality on platform investment incentives, specifically whether to improve the platform. I use a parameterized calibration from engineering reports and current ISP literature to determine welfare outcomes and industry behavior under network neutral and non-neutral regimes. My final chapter explores retail firm failure within the deregulated Texas retail electricity market. This chapter investigates determinants of retail electric firm failures using duration analysis frameworks. In particular, this chapter investigates the impact of these determinants on firms with extant experience versus unsophisticated entrants. Understanding these determinants is an important component in evaluating whether deregulation achieves the impetus of competitive electricity market restructuring. Knowing which economic events decrease a market's competitiveness helps regulators to effectively evaluate policy implementations. I find that experience does benefit a firm's duration, but generally that benefit assists firm duration in an adverse macroeconomic environment rather than in response to adverse market conditions such as higher wholesale prices or increased transmission congestion. Additionally, I find evidence that within the Texas market entering earlier results in a longer likelihood of duration. / text Industrial organization Regulation Regulatory economics Deregulation Electricity Network neutrality Net neutrality ISP Internet service provider Retail electricity markets Wholesale electricity markets Regulated delivery Regulated transmission ERCOT PUCT Zonal energy market Economics Energy markets Two-sided markets Platforms Platform markets Ericson-Pakes algorithms Pakes-McGuire algorithm Second-best regulation Ramsey-Boiteux pricing Ramsey pricing Boiteux pricing Electricity generation Electricity production Electricity consumption Dynamic investment Market entry Market exit Firm investment

149	Paul Verhoeven, media manipulation, and hyper-reality Malchiodi, Emmanuel William 01 May 2011 (has links) Does the individual really matter in the post-modern world, brimming with countless signs and signifiers? My main objective in this writing is to demonstrate how this happens in Verhoeven's films, exploring his central themes and subtext and doing what science fiction does: hold a mirror up to the contemporary world and critique it, asking whether our species' current trajectory is beneficial or hazardous.; Dutch director Paul Verhoeven is a polarizing figure. Although many of his American made films have received considerable praise and financial success, he has been lambasted on countless occasions for his gratuitous use of sex, violence, and contentious symbolism--1995s Showgirls was overwhelmingly dubbed the worst film of all time and 1997s Starship Troopers earned him a reputation as a fascist. Regardless of the controversy surrounding him, his science fiction films are a move beyond the conventions of the big blockbuster science fiction films of the 1980s (E.T. and the Star Wars trilogy are prime examples), revealing a deeper exploration of both sociopolitical issues and the human condition. Much like the novels of Philip K. Dick (and Verhoeven's 1990 film Total Recall--an adaptation of a Dick short story), Verhoeven's science fiction work explores worlds where paranoia is a constant and determining whether an individual maintains any liberty is regularly questionable. In this thesis I am basically exploring issues regarding power. Although I barely bring up the term power in it, I feel it is central. Power is an ambiguous term; are we discussing physical power, state power, objective power, subjective power, or any of the other possible manifestations of the word? The original Anglo-French version of power means "to be able," asking whether it is possible for one to do something. In relation to Verhoeven's science fiction work each demonstrates the limitations placed upon an individual's autonomy, asking are the protagonists capable of independent agency or rather just environmental constructs reflecting the myriad influences surrounding them.

Les statistiquessont nettes : des dizaines d’affaires sont plaidées chaque année. Toutefois, ce contentieux s’esquissesous des traits qui ne sont pas exactement ceux du contentieux indemnitaire de masse faisant suite àla commission d’ententes internationales. C’est un fait majeur qui doit être noté car l’essentiel desprojets de réforme furent bâtis sur cet idéal type. Trois des caractères les plus saillants de la réalitéjudiciaire témoignent de cette fracture entre droit positif et droit prospectif. D’abord, le contentieuxprivé est majoritairement un contentieux contractuel entre professionnels aux forces déséquilibrées. Ensuite, c’estun contentieux national – voire local – plus qu’un contentieux international. Enfin, c’est plutôt uncontentieux autonome se déployant devant les juridictions judiciaires sans procédure préalable oupostérieure des autorités de concurrence (stand alone). Paradoxalement, les actions complémentaires(follow-on), pourtant réputées d’une mise en oeuvre aisée, sont plus rares. Ces observations invitentalors à réviser l’ordre des priorités de toute réflexion prospective. Ainsi, la lutte contre l’asymétried’informations et de moyens entre litigants, l’essor de sanctions contractuelles efficaces, larecomposition du rôle des autorités juridictionnelles et administratives dans le procès civil ou encorele développement des procédures de référé s’imposent avec urgence. Mais s’il paraît légitime desoutenir ce contentieux autonome déjà existant, il n’en reste pas moins utile de participer à laréflexion déjà amorcée pour développer le contentieux indemnitaire de masse tant attendu et dont onne peut négliger les atouts. De lege ferenda, le contentieux privé de demain présenterait donc uncaractère bicéphale ; il serait à la fois autonome et complémentaire. Il faut alors tenter de concevoir unrégime efficace pour ces deux moutures du contentieux privé en tenant compte de leurs exigencesrespectives. Or l’analyse positive et prospective de leurs fonctions révèlent que contentieuxautonome et contentieux complémentaire s’illustrent autant par les fonctions qu’ils partagent que parcelles qui les distinguent. Il serait donc excessif de vouloir en tous points leur faire application derègles particulières ou, à l’inverse, de règles identiques. C’est donc vers l’élaboration d’un régime commun complété par un régime particulier à chacun d’eux que s’orientera la présente recherche.PREMIÈRE PARTIE.
