A escassez d’água vem crescendo gradativamente com o passar dos anos e, esse aumento deixa o país com um sinal de alerta para as gerações futuras. O foco atual está em reduzir o consumo, porém, um dos meios de solução é a dessalinização, oferecendo outras fontes que permitam o consumo de forma universal da água. Essa pesquisa buscou identificar a viabilidade das membranas de Grafeno, para a dessalinização da água. Para tal utilizou-se de pesquisa exploratória quantitativa, com o propósito de verificar a eficácia dos processos existentes e, a viabilidade econômica dos processos encontrados observando sua eficiência. Com a atual tecnologia, os impactos ambientais e o ambiente econômico, Ceteris Paribus, é possível afirmar que para o Brasil seria importante investir em um sistema de segurança hídrica e dessalinizadores um valor aproximado de R$ 27,5 bilhões, o que diminuiria os riscos hídricos e econômicos em função da escassez. O desenvolvimento da tecnologia em grafeno pode alcançar o custo de 0,30 de dólares a cada 1000 galões, criando uma oportunidade real de desenvolvimento para regiões do semiárido brasileiro.

Diagnose Und Therapie

ZusammenfassungDie Kosten extrapyramidaler Erkrankungen, z. B. des idiopathischen Parkinson-Syndroms (IPS), nehmen in Deutschland ständig zu und haben 2008 bei mehr als 2,3 Milliarden Euro gelegen. Dies entspricht im Vergleich zu 2006 einem Anstieg von 10,84%. Wegen des progredienten Charakters von Morbus Parkinson werden im Rahmen dieses Beitrags drei Fragen gestellt und analysiert: wie hoch die jähr-lichen Kosten für IPS-Patienten sind, ob einzelne Schweregrade der Erkrankung zu unterschiedlichen Kosten führen und ob eine frühzeitige Diagnose und Therapie ceteris paribus nicht nur einen Nutzen für den Patienten darstellt, sondern gleichzeitig auch Kosteneinsparpotenziale realisiert werden. Auf Basis von Studien sowie eigener Berechnungen wird gezeigt, dass die Kosten pro Jahr und Patient bis zu 18 680 Euro (H&Y IV und V) betragen und erheblich vom Schweregrad der Erkrankung abhängen. Darauf aufbauend wird diskutiert, ob durch eine frühzeitige medikamentöse Therapie und eine Verlangsamung des Verlaufs der Erkrankung ein erhebliches Kostensenkungspotenzial besteht.

From Regularities to Tendencies

Empirical Fact

It ought to be conceded, as an empirical fact, that there are seldom, if ever, perfect regularities in nature. Generalizations, instead, have to be made ceteris paribus. If there is no perfect regularity, however, this still does not mean that there is no causation. Causal claims can instead rest on recognizable tendencies. Tendencies can come in various degrees of strength, some very strong and some very weak. Ceteris paribus laws could be understood in terms of tendencies, which involve less than necessity but more than pure contingency. A tendency cannot be identified with a statistical incidence, however. Instead, we can think of any such incidences as being produced by the underlying tendencies.

Abstract In the literature, the information structure of the hold-up problem is typically assumed to be exogenous. In this paper, we introduce an additional stage at which the head office may grant individual divisions access to an information system before they undertake their specific investments. Although more information ceteris paribus enhances each divisions’ profits, more information can reduce divisions’ investments and destroy synergies for the other division that would have been generated by the investments. If this negative effect dominates, then information can be harmful for the entire company. Hence, information control can be a subtle force to deal with the hold-up problem to a certain extent. In this paper we analyze those conditions under which information is either harmful or beneficial for central management.

Criminological theories of cross-national studies of homicide have underestimated the effects of quality governance of liberal democracy and region. Data sets from several sources are combined and a comprehensive model of homicide is proposed. Results of the spatial regression model, which controls for the effect of spatial autocorrelation, show that quality governance, human development, economic inequality, and ethnic heterogeneity are statistically significant in predicting homicide. In addition, regions of Latin America and non-Muslim Sub-Saharan Africa have significantly higher rates of homicides ceteris paribus while the effects of East Asian countries and Islamic societies are not statistically significant. These findings are consistent with the expectation of the new modernization and regional theories.

In Virtue Of

AbstractOne reason for thinking that theism is a relatively simple theory – and that it is thereby more likely to be true than other theories,ceteris paribus – is to insist that infinite degrees of properties are simpler than extremely large, finite degrees of properties. This defence of theism has been championed by Richard Swinburne in recent years. I outline the objections to this line of argument present in the literature, and suggest some novel resources open to Swinburne in defence. I then argue that scientists' preference for universal nomological propositions constitutes a very strong reason for supposing that theism is simpler than parodical alternatives in virtue of its positing omni-properties rather than parallel ‘mega-properties’.

The Comparative Study

This article considers the role of generalization in comparative case studies, using as exemplars the contributions to this special issue on climate change politics. As a research practice, generalization is a logical argument for extending one’s claims beyond the data, positing a connection between events that were studied and those that were not. No methodological tradition is exempt from the requirement to demonstrate a compelling logic of generalization. The article presents a taxonomy of the logics of generalization underlying diverse research methodologies, which often go unstated and unexamined. I introduce the concept of resonance groups, which provide a causeway for cross-system generalization from single case studies. Overall the results suggest that in the comparative study of complex political systems, case study research is, ceteris paribus, on par with large-N research with respect to generalizability.
