This paper investigates how intergovernmental dialogue forums addressing climate change outside of the UNFCCC are linked with the UNFCCC regarding their statements on adaptation. The discussed forums are the Major Economies Forum, G8, and G20. Three analytical points of comparison concerning the UNFCCC are established, namely: the UNFCCC gives adaptation the same priority as mitigation; there is increasing attention for the role of transnational actors in adaptation; and there is a clear distinction between the roles of developing and developed countries. A qualitative content analysis of forums’ documents was conducted to investigate the nature of the linkages between statements related to adaptation. The key conclusion is that there is much overlap regarding adaptation statements between the dialogue forums and the UNFCCC, but there could be complementarity as regards certain adaptation subjects about which the forums made statements prior to the UNFCCC.

The editors of the Harvard Educational Review are pleased to present "Education as Transformation: Identity, Change, and Development." This special issue is dedicated to those engaged in the struggle for freedom—whether it is waged against political or economic subjugation, illiteracy, racism, or sexual and cultural chauvinism. Our intent is to focus on the role of education in that struggle in both developing and developed countries and on ways of perceiving and understanding reality that frequently differ from traditional Western conceptions. A critical consideration, then, has been not merely to raise issues pertinent to the Third World but rather to acquire a balanced representation of Third World authors who discuss their own particular values, problems,and strategies.

The economics literature reports mixed evidence on the importance of education as a determinant of income inequality. In this document we shed light on the debate by testing this relationship for a sample of developing and developed countries from 1990 to 2014. We control for country specific characteristics including trade openness, unemployment, foreign direct investment, and the share of elderly population. The results of robust panel data estimations unequivocally find that education is negatively and significantly associated with income inequality.
