Change in the Chilean social model

Chile modernized its social model in two stages characterized by different strategies: developmentalism (1924–73) and the Washington Consensus (1973–2008). In the first stage, the State pursued both social policies of universal coverage and land reform, while also building up the country's economic and institutional infrastructure. After the 1973 military coup, some public services were dismantled and privatized, and the labour movement was suppressed. Since the end of the dictatorship in 1990, resistance to state regulation and an anti‐labour bias have persisted, albeit to a diminishing degree due to advances in democratization and, latterly, the current world economic crisis.     

Construction of incomplete Sudoku square and partially balanced incomplete block designs

Abstract

The present article deals with the study of association among the elements of a Sudoku square. In this direction, we have defined an association scheme and constructed incomplete Sudoku square designs which are capable of studying four explanatory variables and also happen to be the designs for two-way elimination of heterogeneity. Some series of Partially Balanced Incomplete Block (PBIB) designs have also been obtained.     

一场声势浩大的新闻事件策划——浅析《金沙》的推广宣传策略

“新闻事件策划”这个命题自上世纪九十年代中期被提出以后,长期受到广泛争议和关注。在笔者的研究中,以一系列新闻事件策划的理论和实践研究成果为评判标准,主要关注成都市历时打造一年的文化名片“金沙”,以及作为媒体聚焦点的《金沙》音乐剧。在分析“金沙”成功的造势背后,揭示这条“金光闪闪”的文化产业链运作的新思路。     

论杂体律诗的进退格

进退格是晚唐郑谷等人为近体诗制定的一种用韵格式。其用韵规则是选择不可通押的邻韵部的字押韵。不能将“东”“冬”、“寒”“删”等视作相通的韵部。正因为用相邻而不相通的韵部的字押韵,才构成了杂体律诗中的进退格。进退格不能用于绝句。该格的产生有先期基础。李贺是最早的作者。

The performance of the income protection system for older adults in Ecuador and future challenges

The objective of this article is to analyse the performance of Ecuador’s pension system and the challenges it will face in the future. Over the last 13 years, the pension system has made significant advances in terms of coverage and adequacy. However, demographic ageing is straining the financial sustainability of the contributory scheme. In this context, a number of public policy areas are identified, in terms of parameters and structures, which, together with the expansion of non-contributory coverage, could provide a more equitable and sustainable scheme.

The gender gap in pensions in Latin America

Lower female lifetime labour market participation rates, greater interruptions during their working lives, and wage gaps contribute to create gender gaps in pensions at the time of retirement. The design of social security systems may reinforce or attenuate these gaps. This article provides new evidence on gender gaps in access to pensions and in pension income in four Southern Cone countries in Latin America and analyses their evolution between 2000 and 2013, showing significant improvements in both gaps, with differential patterns by countries. The decrease in the gender gap in pension income has been particularly significant in Argentina and Brazil. In both cases, the largest increases in pension values during the period correspond to the lowest income percentiles, where women are overrepresented. The application of redistributive policies in these countries, aimed at reducing poverty and inequality but not necessarily focused on gender equity, has had positive and probably unintended consequences in terms of reduction in gender gaps in pensions.
