El objetivo fue diseñar propuestas de mejora para un servicio de mantenimiento y reparación de vehículos que posee la concesión de una marca internacional de automóviles. La metodología consideró principalmente los aportes del modelo chileno de gestión de excelencia, una norma para el tratamiento de los reclamos, una metodología de diagnóstico de gestión, las dimensiones del modelo Servperf y la técnica de análisis de factores. Los principales resultados permitieron conocer el nivel de calidad del servicio, identificación de una dimensión de calidad subyacente, catorce prácticas de gestión y el diseño de un mecanismo de control y seguimiento fundamentado en la teoría del cuadro de mando integral. Las principales conclusiones indican que integrando los aportes de la literatura de gestión de calidad se pueden diseñar propuestas de mejora en los ámbitos estratégico, personal, análisis de datos, métodos y tecnología.

Despite the instability usually attributed to the Middle East, today one finds anunusual level of stability in eight of its monarchies. When mosl countries of theworld are converting to some form of "democracy," what has led this type ofstate system to such stability? In his book, All in the Family, Michael Herb,Assistant Professor of Political Science at Georgia State University, providesthe most thought-provoking work on Middle Eastern monarchies since rentierstate theory became fashionable. Herb determines that "there are two distinctforms of monarchism in the Middle East. One is resilient and the other is not''(p. 235). His basic thesis is that the key to the survival, persistence, andresilience of monarchies in the Middle East is the willingness and ability of theruling families to saturate the most important positions in the state apparatus.He terms this "dynastic monarchism"-the idea that "the ruling family formsitself into a ruling institution, monopolizing the key offices of the state" (p.235). In the unsuccessful type of monarchy, the king "maneuvers among variousforces-the army, the parliament, and the parties-and when he loses balancethe monarchy falls" (p. 235). Case studies are used to illustrate bothmonarchical models: dynastic (Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, United ArabEmirates, Bahrain, and Oman) and nondynastic (Libya, Egypt, Iraq, Iran.Morocco, Jordan, and Afghanistan - usually excluded from studies on theMiddle East). This book relies on comparative analysis and is based not onlyon archival research, but also on interviews and secondary sources.In the second and third chapters, "The Emergence of Dynastic Monarchy andthe Causes of Its Persistence" and "Arabian Society and the Emergence of thePetro-State," respectively, the reader gets a sense of the rise of the petro-stateand how it enabled dynastic monarchies to emerge. He asserts that theyemerged because the ruler's relatives "had powerful bargaining resourceswhich they could use to help rulers stay in power, to aid aspiring rulers inachieving power, or to attack and depose sitting rulers" (p. 22). Tims, the emergenceof the petro-state added another dimension in intrafamily negotiations.Dynasties consolidate power by limiting the status of any individual or clique.Coalitions are built by the rulers through distribution of government positionsto relatives as a means of assuring their cooperation. Dynasties are strengthenedby forming consensus on the issue of succession rather than depending onprimogeniture. As a result, a ruler is held accountable to his family who ...

Dasheng Leow of the National Tsing Hua University used (Eur. J. Org. Chem. 2014, 7347) photolysis to activate the air oxidation of hydrazine to generate diimide, that then reduced 1 selectively to 2. Kevin M. Peese of Bristol-Myers Squibb effected (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 4444) ring-closing metathesis of 3 followed by in situ reduction to form 4. Jitendra K. Bera of the Indian Institute of Technology Kanpur effected (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 13987) gentle oxidative cleavage of cyclooctene 5 to the dialde­hyde 6. Arumugam Sudalai of the National Chemical Laboratory observed (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 5674) high regioselectivity in the oxidation of the alkene 7 to the ketone 8. Hao Xu of Georgia State University also observed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 13186) high regioselectivity in the oxidation of the alkene 9 with 10, leading to the urethane 11. Justin Du Bois of Stanford University developed (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 13506) mild conditions for the net double amination of the alkene 12 with 13, leading to 14. Jiaxi Xu and Pingfan Li of the Beijing University of Chemical Technology devised (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 6036) a protocol for the allylic thiomethylation of an alkene with 16, converting 15 to 17. Matthias Beller of the Leibniz-Institüt für Katalyse combined (Chem. Eur. J. 2014, 20, 15692) hydroformylation, aldol condensation, and reduction to convert the alkene 18 to the ketone 19. Phil S. Baran of Scripps/La Jolla added (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 14382) the diazo dienone 21 to the alkene 20 to give, after exposure to HCl, the arylated product 22. Markus R. Heinrich of the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg employed (Chem. Eur. J. 2014, 20, 15344) Selectfluor as both an oxidizing and a fluorinating agent in the related addition of 24 to 23 to give 25. Debabrata Maiti at the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay activated (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2014, 136, 13602) the ortho position of 27, then added that interme­diate to 26 to give 28.

Walker is an associate professor of political science at Elmhurst College. This volume is part of a series titled “Across the Aisle.” The other titles cover Social Issues, Economic Issues and Foreign Policy Issues. The preface is written by Lindsey Cormack, an assistant professor of political science and director of the Diplomacy Lab at Stevens Institute of Technology. She goes on to state that members of Congress “do not dedicate the same amount of time and focus to each pressing environment issue.” (vii). Cormack presents some tables that contain both topics covered by party e-newsletters and keywords that are used most by each party. The preface also gives an overview of each party’s platform pertaining to environmental issues in 2016. The introduction states that this volume “examines the proposal and positions of the two parties—both the profound disagreements and the areas of common ground between the two parties.” (xviii).
