Local government fiscal policy and its impact on firm growth in the construction sector : an empirical study Ghent University
he potential transmission mechanisms between local fiscal policy and the construction sector are manifold. For example, in many countries, a significant proportion of construction activity directly results from the demand created by local government investments. Also, many local governments tax tangible fixed assets, which raises costs of investing in immoveable property and as such potentially lowers private demand and construction sector ...
Fuelling the future with concrete, papers, discourse: competing claims in the making of an oil city, Sekondi-Takoradi, Ghana KU Leuven
In analysing the resource environment in Takoradi, I focus in this PhD thesis on the transformative power of oil on processes of social configurations, meaning-making practices and the processes of value formation such as land conversions. Sekondi-Takoradi is an example of petrolic semiosis at work: oil is not only a metonym for modernity in the form of a modern city, but also for global and urban citizenship. The city of Sekondi-Takoradi knows ...
Plan in progress: a critique of the selective coproduction of the Spatial Policy Plan for Flanders (Belgium) Vrije Universiteit Brussel
abstract
In recent years, so-called coproductive, radical strategic planning has become a synonym for integrative and holistic public sector-led planning processes and the alleged integrating qualities of representative democracies. However, these views remain framed by the specific discourses, perspectives and path dependencies of governments, obstructing opportunities for radical reorientations as intended above. In this paper, we ...

Cross-Level Debugging for Static Analysers Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Static analyses provide the foundation for several tools that
help developers find problems before executing the program
under analysis. Common applications include warning about
unused code, deprecated API calls, or about potential security
vulnerabilities within an IDE. A static analysis distinguishes
itself from a dynamic analysis in that it is supposed to termi-
nate even if the program under ...

Longer dry and wet spells alter the stochasticity of microbial community assembly in grassland soils University of Antwerp
Climate change is increasing the duration of alternating wet and dry spells. These fluctuations affect soil water availability and other soil properties which are crucial drivers of soil microbial communities. While soil microbial communities have a moderate capacity to recover once a drought ceases, the expected alternation of strongly opposing regimes can challenge their capacity to adapt. Here, we set up experimental grassland mesocosms where ...
Opstellen van een set van criteria voor depenalisering en toepassing ervan door het aanleveren van onderbouwde voorstellen tot depenalisering University of Antwerp
Dit voorstel beoogt bij te dragen aan de uitbouw van een accuraat handhavingsbeleid. Hiertoe wordt enerzijds een set van criteria voor depenalisering opgesteld. Anderzijds worden onderbouwde voorstellen tot depenalisering aangeleverd. Als uitgangspunt wordt het taxatie-instrument strafwaardigheid ontwikkeld door de Dienst Strafrechtelijk Beleid als startpunt genomen en wordt rekening gehouden met de vooropgestelde hervorming van het Strafwetboek ...
