The aged will continue to face increasing economic difficulties in the face of inflation unless some positive measure is taken to counteract this trend. In addition, younger working people will have to carry a financial burden of great magnitude as the number of unemployed older people grows. To improve this situation, employment opportunities for older people must be maximized and forced retirement abolished. (CK)

A GOOD SEPARATION OF MONO-, DI-, TRI-, AND TETRACYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS WAS ACHIEVED BY THE METHOD OF ADSORPTION CHROMATOGRAPHY ON NEUTRAL ALUMINA. THE ADVANTAGE OF THE METHOD IS CONSIDERED TO BE THAT SATURATED HYDROCARBONS AND RESINS ARE SEPARATED IN A SINGLE OPERATION. THE UV-MONITORING OF THE ELUTED FRACTIONS SHOWED THAT THERE WAS PRACTICALLY NO MUTUAL CONTAMINATION OF THE HYDROCARBON FRACTIONS.

"Can NGOs provide alternative development in a market-based system of global economics?" Today, a full ten years after the author first asked this question, individuals still have only partial answers. There is no doubt that NGOs are playing in a more significant role in global ODA (overseas development assistance). While the reasons for supply of aid are varied, certainly furthering the institutional or national strength of the donor is a primary consideration. While NGOs may not...

This paper discusses controversy over the relevance of the past for understanding immigrant trajectories of today. While one interpretation says that the past and present fundamentally diverge (such that a substantial portion of today's newcomers are unlikely to climb up and into the American social order in the fashion experienced in previous years), another interpretation suggests that the country is not easily rid of the past. This paper disagrees with a suggested construction of the past...

To develop a theoretical framework for explaining the observed change in demand for human skill and knowledge that occurs with economic growth, a macroeconomic analysis was made of economic variables which are influenced by political, social, and cultural factors. In the three-dimensional framework, total output (Y) of all final goods and services produced in the economy during one specified time period is treated as a function of three inputs, capital (K), labor (L), and natural resources (R)....
