An evaluation of a group project designed to reduce free-riding and promote active learning
Group projects are recognised as effective means of engaging students with work-related skills and promoting cooperative learning. This paper reports findings of a small survey – a group project designed to reduce problems associated with the process of production of group goods and services: free-riding and monitoring participation level. The survey elicits information on students' perception of the group project, random group membership and int…
New Labour Legacy
The election of the Conservative–Liberal coalition in May 2010 provides the opportunity to start to map out the record of the Labour governments between 1997 and 2010. This paper deals with the specific question how the Brown/Blair governments performed on public expenditures when compared to the records of UK Labour governments since 1945. Did the public expenditure record of the 1997 represent a departure from that of previous Labour government…
On the Relationship between the Public's Worry about Safety from Burglary and Probabilities of Burglary

The results confirm differenc…

This article systematically reviews the current evidence on the costs and benefits…
