  • Lucretius’ Use of the Name Iphianassa ( De Rervm Natvra 1.85)

    Open AccessRobert L Brown, Robert BrownARTICLEThe Classical Quarterly2019Referencias: 11

    The name Iphianassa occurs only once in Latin literature—in the proem to De Rerum Natura (= DRN ). Here Lucretius illustrates the evils of religion with a description of Iphianassa's sacrifice at Aulis (1.80–101): illud in his rebus uereor, ne forte rearis impia te rationis inire elementa uiamque indugredi sceleris. quod contra saepius illa religio peperit scelerosa atque impia facta. Aulide quo pacto Triuiai uirginis aram Iphianassai turparunt s…

  • Measuring and reporting obligations of social security retirement systems

    The article is based on the International Actuarial Association (IAA) Social Security Committee's principles‐based paper with commentary on measurement and reporting obligations of social security retirement systems (SSRSs) and proposals for appropriate disclosure requirements, for consideration by national and international organizations when developing reporting standards in respect to SSRSs. The article argues that the method of measuring and …

  • The Causes and Effects of International Treaties

    Open AccessRobert L BrownARTICLEPolitical Science Quarterly2016

    THE UNITED STATES AND SOVIET UNION DOMINATED the negotiations leading to the 1970 Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty, but many states had to consent to conclude the treaty.1 Their hegemonic influence was also insufficient to ensure the treaty’s entry into force, and only slowly did states internalize verifiable nonproliferation as a norm.2 Is this experience representative of the larger pattern of the negotiation and entry into force of internationa…

  • Early Buddhist Architecture in Context

    Robert L BrownARTICLESouth Asian Studies2014

    Few Buddhist monuments in India have received as much scholarly attention as the Great Stupa at Amaravati. Yet, Akira Shimada’s new book demonstrates how much more needs to be said. His book rethin

  • Talking Peace, Making Weapons

    Open AccessRobert L Brown, Jeffrey M KaplowARTICLEJournal of Conflict Resolution2014Citada por: 29Referencias: 48

    A growing literature suggests that nuclear assistance from other countries is an important determinant of whether states pursue nuclear weapons. Existing work does not consider, however, the most widely available source of assistance—the Technical Cooperation (TC) program administered by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). IAEA assistance is an important piece of the nonproliferation regime’s central bargain: member states enjoy nuclea…

  • A Sky-Lecture by the Buddha

    Open AccessRobert L BrownARTICLEBulletin of the Indo-Pacific…2012Citada por: 1

    There is a group of sculptures that display a Buddha standing on a winged creature, often flanked by two attendants. These sculptures are associated with the Dvāravatī style of art, date to ca. 7th and 8th centuries, and are almost entirely stone. They are unique in the iconography of Buddhist art. Scholars have searched without success for the meaning of these sculptures, looking for possible narrative explanations in Buddhist texts. It is proba…

  • The Canadian National Retirement Risk Index

    Bonnie‐Jeanne MacDonald, Bonnie-Jeanne MacDonald et al.ARTICLECanadian Public Policy2011Referencias: 1

    This article measures a Canadian National Retirement Risk Index (NRRI). Originally developed by the Center for Retirement Research at Boston College, the NRRI is a forward-looking measure that evaluates the proportion of working-aged individuals who are at risk of not maintaining their standard of living in retirement. The Canadian retirement income system has been very effective in reducing elderly poverty, but our results suggest that it has be…

  • Designing a social security pension system

    Open AccessRobert L BrownARTICLEInternational Social Security…2008Citada por: 3

    This paper looks at potential models of social security pension systems. It refers often to the systems that exist in the United States and Canada (the latter more particularly) to outline the issues involved in attempting to design a “good” social security pension system. Of course, one of the issues is the definition of “good”. This paper will use criteria such as poverty alleviation, retirement income adequacy, benefit/contribution sustainabil…

    During the early medieval period, from the seventh to the ninth centuries, the area of western India now known as Rajasthan was transformed from a politically and artistically minor region to one of relative importance.
