A9789210033565Paperback / softback. New. Subjective measures are increasingly included among the set of assessment tools for poverty used by countries. Objective poverty measures alone are not sufficient to understand the complexity of poverty. Subjective measures can therefore complement them in important ways especially with regard to reaching the poorest and making their voices heard. Statistical analyses related to the use of subjective and quasi-subjective measures on living conditions equality and environmental sustainability can be used to construct measures of an objective nature for example deprivation indices and to verify other measures such as equivalence scales and price indexes. Subjective measures can further add value in considering quantitative approaches to measuring poverty which rather than asking for a specific monetary value levels of income expenditures consumption or wealth consider respondents’ perceptions about theirs or a hypothetical household’s material financial or economic situation. This publication explores the conceptual basis and provides approaches to the measurement and analysis of subjective poverty. The document consolidates country examples reviews methodological challenges in data collection and offers practical solutions from specific question wordings to ready-to-use R computer code for subjective poverty lines estimation. Building on existing international work it recommends subjective poverty indicators for international comparison. paperback
1923's-Gravenhage Van Stockum 1909/1910. Hardcover. . ~ ~ NOTE: THE PRICE OF THIS BOOK IS CURRENTLY REDUCED! ~ ~ . Oblong quarto. Pp. 22 text. Plus 50 plates printed in various techniques some in colour each preceded by a leaf of captions and explanations with interleaving tissue guards. With 34 text illustrations. Pictorial title-page printed in colour. HARDCOVER bound in the original illustrated cloth gilt. In fine internal condition. Overall an excellent copy with all plates in exceptionally fine state of preservation. ~ Major General F. J. van Lier's copy with his entry and signature to front flyleaf. Noteworthy is the technique in which the fine plates in this book are produced. The monochromatic plates are printed in collotype one of the most accurate and attractive methods of photomechanical tonal printing processes. Highly skilled and expensive process it cannot produce more than a limited number of impressions. It has been used for single-sheet prints and luxury portfolios and since the 1950s has been abandoned by all except a few small specialist firms. The colour plates are not chromolithographs as it is sometimes erratically assumed. At the end of the 19th century the term "chromotypograph" implying colour printed from raised metal as type is was used for colour prints which made use of metal relief blocks. It is indeed the process used in this book; the colour plates were printed from etched metal blocks a relief method rather than planographic.

A9789211172171Paperback / softback. New. Oil and gas supplies will continue to play a key role in a future sustainable energy system to support economic growth and social progress even under a scenario in which stringent climate policies and measures are implemented. At the same time oil and gas industries are among the main sources of anthropogenic methane emissions. Methane is the primary component of natural gas with some emitted to the atmosphere during its production processing storage transmission distribution and use. Despite methane's short residence time the fact that it has a much higher warming potential than CO2 and that its atmospheric volumes are continuously replenished make effective methane management a potentially important element in countries' climate change mitigation strategies. This document provides guidance for developing and implementing effective monitoring reporting and verification MRV practices as well as for mitigating methane emissions from the oil and gas sector. In its discussion on MRV and mitigation opportunities it is meant to serve as a resource for a broad audience including owners and operators of oil and gas facilities and policymakers at all levels of government. It is intentionally "principles-based" recognizing that conditions vary greatly across oil and gas facilities and that legal political and institutional aspects differ by jurisdictions. paperback

A few tiny chips to DJ else fine.; xxi 494pp.; Classics and Contemporary Thought; 494 pages; The Roman empire remains unique. Although Rome claimed to rule the world it did not. Rather its uniqueness stems from the culture it created and the loyalty it inspired across an area that stretched from the Tyne to the Euphrates. Moreover the empire created this culture with a bureaucracy smaller than that of a typical late-twentieth-century research university. In approaching this problem Clifford Ando does not ask the ever-fashionable question Why did the Roman empire fall Rather he asks Why did the empire last so long Imperial Ideology and Provincial Loyalty in the Roman Empire argues that the longevity of the empire rested not on Roman military power but on a gradually realized consensus that Roman rule was justified. This consensus was itself the product of a complex conversation between the central government and its far-flung peripheries. Ando investigates the mechanisms that sustained this conversation explores its contribution to the legitimation of Roman power and reveals as its product the provincial absorption of the forms and content of Roman political and legal discourse. Throughout his sophisticated and subtle reading is informed by current thinking on social formation by theorists such as Max Weber Jrgen Habermas and Pierre Bourdieu. . 0520220676 .
