The international integration of the Russian economy is connected to the need of the realization of the competitive advantages of the geopolitical position of Russia, the industrial potential of regions, the logistic infrastructure of transport corridors. This article discusses the design model of the supply chain (distribution network) based on the multivariate analysis and the methodology of the substantiation of its configuration based on the cost factors and the level of the logistics infrastructure development. For solving the problem of placing one or more logistics centers in the service area, a two-stage algorithm is used. At the first stage, the decisions on the reasonability of the choice of one or another version of the development are made with the use of the Make or Buy standard model. The criterion of decision making is the guaranteed overcoming of the threshold of indifference taking into account the statistical characteristics of costs for options of buy and make depending on the volume of consumption of goods or services. At the second stage, the Ardalan's heuristic method is used for the evaluation of the choice of placing one or more logistics centers in the service area. The model parameters are based on the assessment of the development prospects of the region and its investment potential (existence and composition of employment, production, natural resources, financial and consumer opportunities, institutional, innovation, infrastructure capacity). Furthermore, such criteria as a regional financial appeal, professionally trained specialists, the competitive advantages of the promoted company and others are analyzed. An additional criterion is the development of the priority matrix, which considers such factors as difficulties of customs registration and certification, a level of regional transport infrastructure development, political risks and others. Fixing of regional consumers to this or that distribution center can be proved by the solution of open type transport problem. The result of the research is the development of optimal variants for placement of distribution centers based on the multivariate analysis. This model can be used in designing networks to promote products in the territories and regions whose accelerated socio-economic development is supposed. ; Рассмотрены модель проектирования цепи поставки на основе многофакторного анализа и методика обоснования ее конфигурации по факторам затрат и уровню развития логистической инфраструктуры.

The relevance of the article is due to the need to form additional working competence at bachelor students in technical universities. According to employers, bachelors who have mastered working professions and have a corresponding document - a certificate confirming the qualifications of a worker (employee) are the most competitive in the regional labor market. University graduates who have chosen career growth in an enterprise as a worker are not afraid of difficulties and are ready to master new technologies, they are able to perform the necessary work and strive to improve their professional skills. The analysis of the works on the issue of modern industry, the labor market and employment allowed the author to highlight the problems of professional adaptation of bachelors of technical universities. The article substantiates the need for the formation of bachelor students' working competence - the qualifications of the worker - in order to increase the efficiency of industrial placement and further employment. The article considers the possibility of formation of additional working competence at bachelor students as exemplified by the Kazan State Power Engineering University (KSPEU). As a result of the work done, the author developed the recommendations on designing training programs for workers, and their integration with bachelor training programs, as well as the creation of specialized centers for practical training in conjunction with industrial companies. The importance of training students in the working profession is shown as a necessary condition for formalizing the qualifications.

United States (U.S.) military bases have largely been constructed outside of the contiguous United States (OCONUS) due to the need of close support logistics for conflicts and wars. In contrast, military bases within the contiguous United States (CONUS) have been constructed mostly due to economic and other related monetary factors. In addition to monetary concerns for the placement of military bases (specifically naval bases), there exists tactical, environmental, cultural, climate, logistical, and geographical issues that need to be fully considered before deciding on a naval installation location and the vessels to be stationed there. I will present a new toolkit to aid in the decision making process for placing naval vessels to maximize their strategic advantage—while reducing and managing risks—increasing the ability to protect and deter unforeseen threats and—if necessary—fight a future war while adhering to the Department of Defense's (DoD) maritime strategy. The modification of a current integer linear program by introducing the Elimination Et Choix Traduisant la Realité (Electre) III MCDA model will be used to simulate a variety of naval fleet placement factors, weights, and decision maker (DM) preferences to aid in selection of mission scenarios.

For selected target groups, such as unemployed and disadvantaged youth, Christoph Ehlert demonstrates that flexible and well-targeted programmes significantly improve employment chances. To be effective, these programmes must combine individual coaching, classroom training and temporary work. Apart from the programmes, the organisational framework in which the programmes are allocated also influences the outcome. The author shows that the introduction of customer service centres, that streamlined the customers through the counselling and placement process, helped little in bringing unemployed.

This paper focuses on a theme which features in numerous organizational stories, in which an "ordinary" member of of an organization comes face to face with the organization's top leader. This theme echoes not only the archetypical religious scene of meeting God as supreme judge, but also several well-known scenes in drama, opera, and literature. Through a psychoanalytic study of this theme, a set of primal phantasies projected by organizational members onto their leaders are explored. The paper also throws into sharp relief the underlying asymmetry of the relationship between leader and follower: while the follower may shake the leader's hand once, the leader will shake innumerable hands. The paper is based on a detailed interpretation of three narratives supplied by students, drawn from 6-month industrial placements (internships) which they undertook as part of their studies. In the first narrative, a student describes her encounter with the leader in almost religious terms as a liminal moment in her life; the student idealizes the leader who serves as a role model. In the second narrative, the student feels shunned by a leader who is inadequately briefed for his meeting with her; she proceeds to demonize the leader as well as the entire organization. In the third narrative, a student loses his faith in his departmental head, when he realizes that he is not truly independent bur merely follows directives from above. The three narratives are used to identify four core fantasies about the lader: (1) the leader as someone who cares for his/her followers; (2) the leader as someone accessible; (3) the leader as someone who is omnipotent and omniscient; and (4) the leader as someone who has a legitimate claim to lead others. Two groups of follower fantasies are then examined. The charismatic and the messianic. It is then suggested that the leader may be seen as a reincarnation of the primal mother, restoring the members' narcissism and rewarding them for who they are rather than for what they have achieved. Alternatively, the leader may be envisioned more closely to the Freudian image of father substitute, who rewards and punishes, arousing at once fear, loyalty, jealousy, and suspicion. It is suggested that the former is close to Kohut's account of charismatic leadership fantasy, while the latter is closer to his account of messianic leadership fantasy.

Since the events of September 11, 2001, security for the nation's Intercontinental Ballistic Missile force has become a prominent concern for personnel in the highest levels of government. This has resulted in many physical security upgrades and new methods to counter hostile activities. This research seeks to find the optimal placement for one layer of the security net protecting these crucial assets, the daily-deployed security forces Fire Teams. The problem of finding the optimal placement for these forces is modeled as a facility location problem. Three of the methods of locating facilities available in the literature are selected to solve this problem. The maximum covering location problem strives to cover the maximum demand possible with a predetermined, finite number of facilities. The p-center problem covers all demand and seeks to minimize the maximum distance between a demand point and a servicing facility. The p-median problem intends to minimize the demand-weighted total distance between demand sites and servicing facilities. A hybrid model is also developed to first employ a p-center solution and then attempt to reduce the total distance using a p-median approach. Comparison of the four models is based on Fire Team usage, the average response time calculated from the placement of Fire Teams, the average total distance, and the average maximum distance any Fire Team is located from a penetrated Launch Facility.

Protection of Migrant Workers is a shared responsibility, both from the Central government and local governments. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers by the Local Government. By using normative juridical approach methods as well as using interactive analysis models. It can be obtained from the discussion that the local government has responsibility and authority in carrying out the protection of migrant workers. According to the provisions of Law No. 23 of 2014 on Local Government, the District Government is obliged to carry out affairs in the field of employment. Employment affairs that are the authority of the district / city governmentinclude: Job Training and Labor Productivity, Labor Placement, Industrial Relations and Employment Supervision. Sub Division of Work Placement, District has authority in terms of Protection of Indonesian Migrant Workers both pre and after placement. The form of Protection of PrePlacement of Indonesian Migrant Workers in the region can be in the form of Supervision in terms of making employment agreements ranging from recruitment, education and training. Full-time forms of protection can be in the form of problem solving, defense of the fulfillment of the rights of indonesian migrant workers and physical and psychic recovery and management of return.

AbstractThe Japanese economy's industrial and occupational structure changed drastically during the high growth period. These structural changes were strongly influenced by the flow of junior high school graduates from rural to urban areas. Between 1955 and 1964, six million fifteen-year-old boys and girls entered the labor market immediately on completing compulsory education, with 30–40% of that total leaving their home prefectures to find jobs nationwide. What made it possible for masses of young workers to find employment on graduation from junior high school? This paper addresses that issue, and sheds light on the critical roles of graduate work placement by public institutions, in particular the nationwide network of Public Employment Security Offices (PESOs) working in cooperation with junior high schools. After looking at the history of graduate work placement from 1925 to 1950, the paper outlines the postwar development of the job placement system and explains the mechanisms used by the employment security administration to organize the rural-urban migration of young workers. Success was, however, achieved at the cost of freedom of occupational choice to which young workers should be entitled by rights. It is argued that an appraisal of the roles of the labor market institutions is no easy matter, since the advantages are intimately interwoven with the disadvantages.

This book examines the role of agriculture in the economic transformation of developing low- and middle-income countries and explores means for accelerating agricultural growth and poverty reduction. In this volume, Mellor measures by household class the employment impact of alternative agricultural growth rates and land tenure systems, and impact on cereal consumption and food security. The book provides detailed analysis of each element of agricultural modernization, emphasizing the central role of government in accelerated growth in private sector dominated agriculture. The book differs from the bulk of current conventional wisdom in its placement of the non-poor small commercial farmer at the center of growth, and explains how growth translates into poverty reduction. This new book is a follow up to Mellor's classic, prize-winning text, The Economics of Agricultural Development

The attitudes towards economic and industrial understanding of 58 primary student-teachers who had taken a business placement in their final year of training is explored through questionnaires, interviews and assignments. An analysis showed that economic and industrial understanding did not rank highly in their priorities for Primary pupils, confirming the findings of Ross, Ahier & Hutchings (1991). They were, however, interested in business links and industrial simulations as a context for their priorities in teaching of active learning, co-operation and other personal and social skills. Another of their priorities, linked particularly to environmental protection and conservation, was a sense of responsibility and social conscience. A way forward may be to provide teachers with a conceptual framework for economic concepts which is consonant with those priorities and to take advantage of the current interest in moral education and citizenship to re-focus economics education on using economic concepts as a tool to extend children's thinking on a wide variety of issues in those areas.
