This chapter examines the relationship between parliamentarism and the legislative branch. It explores the evolution of the legislative branch, leading to disillusionment with the rationalized law-making factory, a venture run by political parties beyond the reach of constitutional rules. The rise of democratically bred party rule is positioned between the forces favouring free debate versus effective decision-making in the legislature. The chapter analyses the institutional make-up and internal operations of the legislature, the role of the opposition in the legislative assembly, and explores the benefits of bicameralism for boosting the powers of the legislative branch. Finally, it looks at the law-making process and its outsourcing via delegating legislative powers to the executive.

In many military and critical incident situations, teams operate as part of a coalition or collective of other organizations. Interoperation adds complexity to the decision-making process because it brings together organizations with (potentially) disparate (and competing) values, priorities, and organizational practices. This chapter examines the issues of value congruence between the person and the organization. Specifically, it discusses value congruence at a situation-specific level (i.e., how does organizational/personal value congruence affect least-worst decision-making in operation) and also the factors within the organization that can facilitate or hinder effective decision-making. Finally, value congruence is extrapolated to examine the overall effects of “person–organization” fit, especially as it pertains to moral behavior and issues of retention.

With the advancement of information technology and the substantial increase in the production and usage of data, analytics has become an important new tool for effective decision-making processes in the organizations. The evolution of management to a digital and data-driven orientation has also caused a significant shift in the position of HRM from a more operational role to a strategic business partnership. With expeditious digitalization, along with the inevitable influence of globalization, human resource analytics (HRA) has rapidly become a crucial tool for organizations in all industries. Recent examples and catastrophic experiences, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, have proven the vital role of HR analytics for organizations to survive in times of crisis. This chapter aims to summarize what HR analytics is, how it should be implemented and utilized, and how it will be effective and play a crucial role for organizations in order to be able to survive in a crisis situation.

This chapter discusses a radical solution to the problem that many protected areas are not in the right places to achieve maximum conservation benefit. The radical solution involves replacing underperforming protected areas with new ones that achieve more for conservation. Such a system revision was successfully undertaken in Bhutan as long ago as 1993. This chapter argues that designing robust policies and processes around reserve replacement will (i) force a thorough assessment of the role of protected areas against a clear set of conservation objectives, (ii) upgrade a poorly performing system of protected areas into a system that achieves better conservation outcomes for the same, or even a lower, overall budget, and (iii) allow for sober, transparent, and effective decision-making when parts of existing protected areas are under threat from development.
