An interaction model for livestock farming and steppe ecosystem // “Mathematical Modeling of Ecological Systems” Almaty: Daik-Press, 2003. – 160 p. Abstracts. P.26.
Demberel S.; Olenev, Nicholas; Pospelov, Igor - EconWPA - 2003
This work builds a macro model for livestock farming based on aggregation of initial micro description for rational control of total number of vintage livestock (age cohorts). All variety of animal kinds is reduced to one by given recount coefficients. An optimal problem on co-hort total number...

The Rule of Law: Measurement and Deep Roots
Gutmann, Jerg; Voigt, Stefan - 2016
This paper does three things. First, based on a limited number of theoretically established dimensions, it proposes a new de facto indicator for the rule of law. It is the first such indicator to take the quality of legal norms explicitly into account. Second, using this indicator we shed new...

Why Adopt a Federal Constitution? And why Decentralize? – Determinants Based on a New Dataset
Gutmann, Jerg; Voigt, Stefan - 2017
Measurement of both federalism and decentralization has been contentious. We introduce three new indicators reflecting important aspects of both federalism and decentralization. The three new indicators are the result of principal component analysis. When we try to identify their main...
