Summary
This chapter synthesises insights from the Deep Decarbonisation Pathways Project (DDPP), which provided detailed analysis of how 16 countries representing three-quarters of global emissions can transition to very low-carbon economies. The four ‘pillars’ of decarbonisation are identified as: achieving low or zero-carbon electricity supply; electrification and fuel switching in transport, industry and housing; ambitious energy efficiency improvements; and reducing non-energy emissions. The chapter focuses on decarbonisation scenarios for Australia. It shows that electricity supply can be readily decarbonised and greatly expanded to cater for electrification of transport, industry and buildings. There would be remaining emissions principally from industry and agriculture, these could be fully compensated through land-based carbon sequestration. The analysis shows that such decarbonisation would be consistent with continued growth in GDP and trade, and would require very little change in economic structure of Australia’s economy. Australia is rich in renewable energy potential, which could re-enable new industries such as energy-intensive manufacturing for export

Summary
A rising tide lifts all the boats.
John F. Kennedy, October 15, 1960Simultaneous and identical actions of United States Steel and other leading steel corporations, increasing steel prices by some 6 dollars a ton, constitute a wholly unjustifiable and irresponsible defiance of the public interest.
John F. Kennedy, April 11, 1962INTRODUCTION
This chapter was written for a particularly lovely occasion. One of the authors began his teaching career in the Berkeley economics department in 1967. For someone raised and educated on the East Coast, Berkeley was a lot to absorb: no winters, supermarket vegetables looking like they were grown in the Garden of Eden, a campus constantly going up in flames – usually figuratively but sometimes literally. The transition was made much easier by a welcoming faculty, with Lloyd Ulman at the head of the line. Lloyd took the time to explain how to negotiate the University of California system and constantly offered support – always moral, financial when it was needed. We appreciated being part of this occasion where we could return some of that goodwill.
In what follows, we deviate somewhat from the conference theme of new labor-market institutions. We focus instead on old labor-market institutions and their impact on the U.S. “Golden Age” of 1947–1973. A central feature of that Golden Age was mass upward mobility: individuals saw sharply rising incomes through much of their career and each successive generation was living better than the last.
MACROECONOMIC ASPECTS OF SUBSTANCE ABUSE: DIFFUSION, PRODUCTIVITY AND OPTIMAL CONTROL

This paper deals with macroeconomic aspects of widespread substance abuse with a reference to illicit drugs as an example. Substance abuse impedes the productivity of the labor force and reduces economic growth. Workers are either nonusers and therefore fully productive, a number of whom are employed by the government in drug-control activities, or users who are only partially productive. Efficient management of the nation's portfolio of workers involves eradicating drug use when initial user numbers are lower than a critical level, but allows user numbers to rise to, and be accommodated at, a stationary level when initial user numbers exceed a critical level.

Nanometer sized gold patterns were produced with controlled spacings using the combination of a top-down (e-beam lithography) and a bottom-up (macromolecular chemistry) technique. Sub-10 nm nanoparticle arrays on silicon consisting of gold nano particles separated by micro meter spacings were fabricated with this approach. Using electron beam lithography, templates comprising of 150 nm to 1 μm sized trenches, holes and aperiodic patterns were made in an electron-beam resist. Block copolymer micelles were then patterned into this template by spincoating. The micelles acted as positioners for a nanometer sized gold precursor that is sequestered within its core. Subsequent removal of the resist layer left an array of Au loaded organic micelles ordered according to the pattern of the template. Exposure of this substrate to a hydrogen plasma removed the organic block copolymer and resulted in an array of sub-10 nm gold nanoparticles/nanoclusters with micron separations. The gold was then used as an anchor point for the tethering of functional molecules in order to localize fluorescent molecules.

This paper observes that analyses of the process of decentralization often fail to recognize that constraints are imposed by the nature of the organization being examined. In particular, the analysis of an organization producing economic goods can be misleading if applied, without qualification, to organizations producing government goods. Taking as its point of departure the analysis of an economic organization, the article focuses on three salient differences in the operation of the two types of organizations. First, in the economic organization both its personnel and its clients agree on the items produced. In the government organization there may be substantial disagreement about what should be produced. Second, in the economic organization the information flows will generally be of a compact numerical form. In the government organization the information flow will often not take a numerical form. Information transmission will be less dense and, therefore, more expensive. Third, in the economic organization prices act as “sufficient statistics,” which completely measure the organization's performance of its objective (profit maximization). For many government organizations no such sufficient statistics exist.
