A NEW APPROACH FOR CONSTRUCTION PLANNING IN THE DEVELOPING COUNTRIES: THE SUB-STRUCTURE CHAINING DIAGRAM (SSCD)

We argue that there are essentially two chief leadership models: the hard-style and soft-style leadership. From Neutrosophic point of view, there can be a third way, between hard-style leadership and soft-style leadership model, which may be more relevant to many of people in developing countries as well as in developed countries, who feel “powerless” and “hopeless” especially in this pandemic situation. We prefer to call this new approach: leading from powerlessness. The third-way Neutrosophic leadership model may also mean partially hard-style and partially soft-style leadership.

Recent Reform

The form that pensions provision takes is far from uniform, even among highly developed capitalist economies. This chapter surveys this diversity, but also the flawed ways in which pensions variation is usually understood, in both officialdom and academic scholarship. The intention, however, is not to replace one typology with another; while some of the most important differences across countries are actually understated, there is also a tendency to overstate systemic differences based on a highly parsimonious account of varieties within (welfare) capitalism. The chapter considers the main features and implications of pensions provision across many developed and developing countries, and recent reform agendas (including Europeanization), and develops a new approach to understanding private pensions in capitalist economies with reference to the temporal and cross-generational nature of provision.

Common Framework

Modernisation and ageing theory has provided the main platform for the debate on changes in family support for older people in both the industrialised and the developing worlds. Although its well-known proposition of an ‘abandonment’ of older people in individualistic society has received much attention and been solidly refuted, the modernisation model continues to be the principal and most common framework for explaining the decline in familial material support for older people – both historically in the West, or at present in developing countries. The main rival explanation is provided by materialist accounts. The ability of these explanations to provide a meaningful understanding of why material family support may diminish has however received little if any analytical attention, despite its vital policy relevance, especially for the developing world. This paper critically examines the content and basis of both explanatory models. For each it exposes fundamental conceptual and epistemological limitations that render neither able to provide a solid understanding of the nature and causes of decline in support. Building on this analysis, the paper proposes a new approach in order to develop a fuller conceptual and empirical understanding.
