This paper provides a first order asymptotic theory for generalized method of moments (GMM) estimators when the number of moment conditions is allowed to increase with the sample size and the moment conditions may be weak. Examples in which these asymptotics are relevant include instrumental...

The taxonomy extends the distinction between diagnostic and interactive control systems by adding two new dimensions to the one introduced by Simons (1995) which focuses on the nature of the involvement of operational managers. The first new dimension concerns the degree of specificity of the...

Simons (1995) a proposé de différencier les systèmes diagnostique et interactif selon la nature de l'engagement des responsables opérationnels. L'objet de cet article est d'introduire deux autres dimensions pour mieux différencier ces deux modes de contrôle : le caractère plus ou moins...

This paper provides a first order asymptotic theory for generalized method of moments (GMM) estimators when the number of moment conditions is allowed to increase with the sample size and the moment conditions may be weak. Examples in which these asymptotics are relevant include instrumental...

Le texte élabore une typologie de la diversité des formes locales d'appropriation des nouvelles normes d'action, en s'appuyant sur la prémisse de Merton selon laquelle la qualité académique repose sur l'appui réciproque de dimensions instrumentales et honorifiques. Depuis les années où...

Much research has been devoted to the emergence and development of a European administrative space (EAS). This paper seeks to address the issue of whether this space limits the EU member and candidate states' sovereignty. Therefore, it is structured as follows: first, it will try to define the...

This paper examines the where, when and why of first round entrepreneurial investment activity in the United States from the first quarter of 1995 until the second quarter of 2010. The paper analyzes these venture capital investments taking into consideration the role of macroeconomic variables,...

Solar cooking technologies have large potential in developing countries. Many of the solar cookers (particularly box type and parabolic concentrating type solar cookers) have been commercialized in different parts of the world. An effective quality control is essential for a large-scale...
