The Rise of Public Engagement in Japan and the UK
This paper juxtaposes major historical developments in public engagement in Japan and the UK to unsettle the idea that the UK experience of how “publics” have been accounted for in science policy might be taken as a common or representative story. In comparison to the UK and European moves “from deficit to dialogue,” recent events in Japan are much less well-known internationally, and do not follow the same pattern. Rather than being either “ahea…
Right-to-Repair, Product Durability and Obsolescence
There is a growing global consensus on the need to enhance product durability as a response to increasing concerns about waste and consumer rights. Modern equipment, including motor vehicles, farm and construction machinery, and consumer goods, has become more sophisticated, making repairs more complex and costly. Manufacturers often restrict access to repair manuals, software updates, and spare parts, or design products in ways that impede easy …
Impact of Pluri-Lateral Free Trade Agreements on Innovation
Innovation has been identified as a critical indicator for an economy to succeed in the fourth industrial revolution. Historically, some members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations have been better known for violation of intellectual rights rather than their protection. However, this is changing as their economies develop and they have been better integrated into the global economy. Integration has been facilitated by their membership o…

Thailand has been a State Party to the Convention Against Torture and other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment (CAT) since 2007 and signed the International Convention for the Protection of all Persons from Enforced Disappearance (CED) in 2012. Despite this commitment, there is evidence that Thailand has violated both CAT and CED. Thailand has been discussing draft legislation since it was lodged in the House of Representatives i…
‘Fake News’ in Asean
The research is a legal review based on the documentary research concept by comparing the development of legislative responses to fake news spread in Southeast Asia. Anti-fake news legislation focuses on the transmission of information by electronic means than print media. The analysis is carried out for each of the member states by including a clause-by-clause examination of the legislation and subsequent cases addressing legal issues associated…
Cybercrime in Asean
Child pornography is one of the most pernicious crimes amongst the various forms of cybercrime. Offensive materials can be quickly disseminated over the internet with no respect for international borders. ASEAN leaders undertook at their 31st ASEAN Summit to prevent and tackle cybercrime including harmonising their laws. This paper is based on an analysis of the cybercrime legislation of all ten ASEAN countries to determine how the offence of chi…

After putting Britain's social housing in context, it sets out the current legislative and policy context for access to social housing in the three countries, detailing key differences in approach and emphasis. It goes on to consider the establishment of choice-based lettings systems and the extent to which the various government departments are taking the lead in promo…

Proportional Reduction in Error Interpretations for the Squared Generalized Multiple, Partial, and Multiple-Partial Correlation Coefficients and Their Special Cases
Proportional Reduction in Error (PRE) interpretations for three generalized product-moment statistics are provided. The PRE interpretation for M2, the generalized multiple correlation coefficient, theoretically consolidates and extends those developed for R2, Rs2, Moron's multiple τ2, T2, multiple φ2 and various other hybrid special cases of M2. That for partial Γ2, provides PRE interpretations for partial r2, partial rs2, Kendall's partial τ2, p…
Drug Use and “Hustling” a Study of Their Interrelationships
This paper focuses on the dynamic relationship between daily “hustling” and narcotic use. Through interviews with 30 narcotics users three common patterns of interrelationships are established In addition. a large number of confounding factors which influence the hustling‐drug use relationships are described. The paper reveals the complexity of street life and the tenuousness of views which posit a one‐to‐one correspondence between hustling and n…
Continuities in Ordinal Path Analysis
Aspects of Wilson's (1974a) critique of the interpretations and use of ordinal statistics applied to the regression and path analysis of ordinal variables are clarified and answered. First, the logic of Smith's (1972) technique for the path analysis of ordinals is explicated and various interpretations for the path coefficient based on Kendall's tau-b are presented. Second, as an aid to interpretation, the family of tau-b class ordinal statistics…
Yoruba Armament
A study of the weapons used by the armies is relevant to different aspects of Yoruba history, mainly military and political but also economic and even cultural. The article concerns those weapons which were in use before, as well as after, the general introduction of firearms into Yorubaland (which took place only between about 1820 and 1850). Oral and written tradition provides the background for the surviving weapons. Many of these weapons, or …
