In her series on India, Jen Skerritt has cherry-picked statistics and quotes to emphasize the freakish at the expense of the big picture. She has chosen to sensationalize rather than be balanced. Her April 6 article (Where are the girls?) is focused on Bhilwara, an obscure district which is not representative of anything. Having been brought up in Rajasthan and spending the first 26 years of my life there, I had never heard of infant girls being suffocated -- in any segment of society -- until I read Skerritt's article. Selective abortion of females is indeed a problem, but not as severe as Skerritt would lead us to believe and a very large number of very influential people are fighting it. The doctor shown in the article would not be one of the "rare physicians who have spoken out agai...

This paper presents a case study of the co-operative design, development, and implementation of an XBRL-enabled interorganizational system (IOS) by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority, the Reserve Bank of Australia (central bank), and the Australian Bureau of Statistics to revolutionize reporting by financial institutions in Australia. The findings illustrate that the complexity of data consumption patterns drove increased interdependence within the financial information supply chain requiring the co-operative development of context sensitive data exchanges and commodity-like IT infrastructures. The paper concludes that the co-operative model to IOS development exhibited here is likely to be more suited to the development of systems for financial information supply chains tha...

Poverty is a universal phenomenon that cut across both developed and underdeveloped countries. In Nigeria poverty is deep, widespread and multidimensional, and Nigerians are all victims of this condition in one way or the other even though the degree differs. However, available statistics reveals that poverty is more pronounced among the rural dwellers that form 70% of the country's population. Efforts by successive government to eradicate poverty especially in the rural areas since independence have not yielded any desirable result in spite of huge amount of resources committed to it. This article focuses on the causes of rural poverty as well as strategies adopted to eradicate it by successive regimes in Nigeria. It also analysis some of the main weaknesses of the past attempt aimed a...

In recognition of the growing importance of small business ownership by women to the economic well-being of national economies, considerable academic attention has been given to identifying the reasons why women enter self-employment. However, little is known about the motivations for women to become franchisors. This represents an important gap in the literature. While the absence of research may be due to early beliefs that women are risk averse individuals that tend to limit the growth of their enterprises, more recent studies conclude that women perceive small business ownership as a vehicle for rapid growth and wealth creation. On this basis, franchising should represent an appealing business expansion strategy as it minimizes capital, labor, and managerial limitations on firm grow...
