The interaction of environmental systems and human development in a time of wild cards. A big data enhanced foresight study
Journal of Environmental Management. 2022. Vol. 316. Article 115169.
The article contributes to the research discussion around the human-natural and social-ecological systems by identification of a comprehensive list of global trends related to integrated interaction between environmental systems and human development, including climate change, pollution, new quality of economic growth, and challenges for education and healthcare. The foresight study behind it encompasses a combination of quantitative (big data ) and qualitative (expert) methods. This approach allows for a systemic vision of structural shifts, assessing their probability and impact. The outcomes of the study include the list of global environmental and human development trends and factors classified by STEEPV categories, their effects that split into opportunities and threats, and an assessment of their inter-relation and mutual impact. Policy implications focus on possible areas of intervention for sustainable growth.

This paper studies a social-norm model in which agents choose effort in response to their own productivity and the efforts of their neighbours. We analyse how links between groups with different productivity levels affect equilibrium effort and derive the intergroup linking intensity that maximises aggregate effort. We work in a stylised two-group stochastic block setting ...

“Leaderlessness” is widely held to be a defining feature of contemporary mass mobilization, yet the claim rests on a handful of recent cases. We offer the first systematic cross-national analysis of this phenomenon from 1791 to 2019. We show that the absence of leadership is real but older and more modest than claimed: the share ...

Как понять, хорош адвокат или нет? В данной статье мы описываем методологию, позволяющую измерять качество юридической помощи через разницу между тем, что предсказывает модель машинного обучения по объективным характеристикам дела, и тем, чем дело закончилось в реальности. Мы исходим из предпосылки, что если у адвоката дела стабильно заканчиваются лучше ожидаемого, то он делает свою работу хорошо. ...
