    Development of the world economy bears numerous negative phenomena, and require constant need to rebalance socioeconomic interests of nations, transnational subjects, and individuals. Socialisation is an important and effective tool for balancing social and individual; however, despite socialisation is evolving rapidly, its scientific and practical potential is not duly uncovered. In the article theoretical and methodological foundations of socialisation of economy is surveyed in the context of globalisation, and etymology, explanations, scope, historical phases of development, theoretical aspects and practical forms of use, consequences and prospects are analysed. The term «socialisation» was determined as a multidisciplinary, used in many scientific fields, increasingly involving various areas of research and is understood as inclusion, adaptation and development of human being in society. It was determined that the economy socialisation is implemented in different fields and semantic structures, contains a large number of methodological tools, is involved at all management levels, and is primarily identified with the increasing role of social component in the life of human resources. The assumptions were made about the future transformation of this category in line with the identified predictive trends

    Is There Really a de Sitter/CFT Duality

    Full text link
    In this paper a de Sitter Space version of Black Hole Complementarity is formulated which states that an observer in de Sitter Space describes the surrounding space as a sealed finite temperature cavity bounded by a horizon which allows no loss of information. We then discuss the implications of this for the existence of boundary correlators in the hypothesized dS/cft correspondence. We find that dS complementarity precludes the existence of the appropriate limits. We find that the limits exist only in approximations in which the entropy of the de Sitter Space is infinite. The reason that the correlators exist in quantum field theory in the de Sitter Space background is traced to the fact that horizon entropy is infinite in QFT.Comment: 12 Figures, STIAS Workshop on Quantum Gravit

    Flavour Symmetries and Kahler Operators

    Any supersymmetric mechanism to solve the flavour puzzle would generate mixing both in the superpotential Yukawa couplings and in the Kahler potential. In this paper we study, in a model independent way, the impact of the nontrivial structure of the Kahler potential on the physical mixing matrix, after kinetic terms are canonically normalized. We undertake this analysis both for the quark sector and the neutrino sector. For the quark sector, and in view of the experimental values for the masses and mixing angles, we find that the effects of canonical normalization are subdominant. On the other hand, for the leptonic sector we obtain different conclusions depending on the spectrum of neutrinos. In the hierarchical case we obtain similar conclusion as in the quark sector, whereas in the degenerate and inversely hierarchical case, important changes in the mixing angles could be expected.Comment: 22 pages, LaTe

    Coarsening on percolation clusters: out-of-equilibrium dynamics versus non linear response

    Full text link
    We analyze the violations of linear fluctuation-dissipation theorem (FDT) in the coarsening dynamics of the antiferromagnetic Ising model on percolation clusters in two dimensions. The equilibrium magnetic response is shown to be non linear for magnetic fields of the order of the inverse square root of the number of sites. Two extreme regimes can be identified in the thermoremanent magnetization: (i) linear response and out-of-equilibrium relaxation for small waiting times (ii) non linear response and equilibrium relaxation for large waiting times. The function X(C)X(C) characterizing the deviations from linear FDT cross-overs from unity at short times to a finite positive value for longer times, with the same qualitative behavior whatever the waiting time. We show that the coarsening dynamics on percolation clusters exhibits stronger long-term memory than usual euclidian coarsening.Comment: 17 pages, 10 figure

    Acknowledgement of Country In the spirit of reconciliation the Australian Council of TESOL Associations (ACTA) acknowledges the Traditional Custodians of country throughout Australia and their connections to land, sea and community. We pay our respect to their elders past and present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples today. We acknowledge that the arrival of the English language to this continent impacted the traditional languages and cultures of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and celebrate the work to reclaim or maintain these languages. ACTA members teach English in addition to supporting the maintenance and development of First Languages, and encourage the acquisition and use of other languages – including First Nations Languages

    Notes for contributors It is understood that articles submitted to TESOL in Context have not been previously published and are not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Articles around 6,000 words including references are preferred, and an abstract of up to 200 words should be included with each article submitted. Electronic submission as attached files is required (Microsoft Word or rich text format). One file should contain a separate cover page with the article’s title, the names of the author/s, their preferred titles, and the contact details for the author to whom correspondence should be sent (address, telephone numbers, and email address). About 70 words of biographical data should also be included. A second file should contain the title followed by the abstract, the body of the paper and the list of references. Number the pages but do not use identifying headers or footers. Headings and sub-headings should be left aligned, with the first letter capitalised. Indicate new paragraphs by using one extra line space. Text should be Times New Roman, 12 points, with 1.5 spacing. Short quotations should be incorporated into the text and enclosed with double quotation marks. Quotations of more than about 40 words should be set off from the main text by indentation, without any quotation marks. Referencing should follow the APA referencing style; for examples, see a recent issue of the journal at http:// www.tesolincontext.org.au/. References in the text should be ordered alphabetically and contain the name of the author and the year of publication, e.g. (Adams, 2001; Jones, 1998). For direct quotations include the relevant page number(s), e.g. (Jones, 1998, p. 34). TESOL in Context, Volume 30, No.1 TESOL in Context Tables, figures or diagrams should be numbered consecutively and included in the relevant part of the text. Each should have an explanatory title. Numbers up to and including ten should be spelt out and numbers over ten should be expressed as figures. The spellings used should be those given in The Macquarie Dictionary.
