Abstract This paper offers a descriptive narrative and visualization of the life challenges children and parents face after the trauma and anxieties created by divorce. Using data from 1339 published documents indexed on the Web of Science and a visual analytics technique, the study highlights several challenges. Marital union breakdown has significant negative consequences on the household members, with severe economic effects on women and children. Parental divorce causes damaging effects on children and can lead to antisocial and behavioral problems and psychological and health problems. Also, adversities from divorce can have multidimensional consequences on the parties.

Abstract Modern Money Theory (MMT) has become very popular among some progressive economists. Its basic argument is that budget deficits are usually not a constraint on government spending, The authors, progressives themselves, argue that some aspects of MMT are useful, but others are incomplete or confusing. They focus on the application of MMT to developing countries.

Abstract On October 20, 2019, Bolivia held presidential and parliamentary elections. Shortly after preliminary results indicated that incumbent president Evo Morales had won the election in the first round, the Organization of American States Electoral Observation Mission in Bolivia issued an initial postelection press release, which expressed “its deep concern and surprise at the drastic and hard-to-explain change in the trend of the preliminary results revealed after the closing of the polls,” without providing any evidence for its claims. We analyzed the claims from the Organization of American States and found: • The preliminary results from the “quick count” for the first 83.85 percent of the vote count are consistent with a final projected result of Evo Morales winning the election outright with a more than 10 percentage point victory; • Neither the OAS mission nor any other party has demonstrated that there were widespread or systematic irregularities in the elections of October 20, 2019; • Neither the quick count nor the official count exhibit significant changes in voting trends in the final results; rather, the same well-known trend, explainable by differences in voter preferences in different geographical areas, is evident in both counts; • The legally binding vote count—the official count—did not stop for any significant period of time; and • It is unclear how the OAS mission’s objections regarding the quick count would affect the official count.
2019年10月20日,玻利维亚举行总统和议会选举。在初步结果显示现任总统埃沃·莫拉莱斯(Evo Morales)在第一轮选举中获胜后不久,美洲国家组织驻玻利维亚选举观察团(Organization of American States Electoral Observation Mission in Bolivia)在选举后发布了一份初步新闻稿,表示“对投票结束后显示的初步结果趋势出现难以解释的剧烈变化深表关切和惊讶”,但没有为其主张提供任何证据。我们分析了美洲国家组织(Organization of American States)的声明,发现:•对前83.85%的选票进行的“快速计票”的初步结果与埃沃·莫拉莱斯(Evo Morales)以超过10个百分点的优势赢得选举的最终预测结果一致;•美洲国家组织特派团或任何其他当事方均未证明在2019年10月20日的选举中存在广泛或系统的违规行为;•快速点票和官方点票均未在最终结果中显示出投票趋势的重大变化;相反,同样众所周知的趋势,可以用不同地理区域选民偏好的差异来解释,在两种统计中都很明显;•具有法律约束力的计票——官方计票——没有在任何重要时期停止;目前尚不清楚美洲国家组织代表团对快速点票的反对会如何影响官方点票。

Abstract Is there a way to soften the impact of another financial crisis? As national governments and global institutions grapple with the coronavirus pandemic, popular discussion has turned to how countries might overcome the social, economic, and financial disruption posed by the virus and its multi-system fallout. One lesson learned from the Global Financial Crisis of 2008 is that a drive for efficiency and the elimination of redundancy characterized the global financial system of the mid-2000s, and left much of the world exposed to systemic disruption. An overemphasis upon protecting or hardening core systems of governance and finance may not adequately protect against a range of disruptions in an uncertain future. Instead, resilience-thinking is needed to better position national and global financial institutions towards a recovery-oriented path. We describe how resilience-based policy can help lessen the long-term impacts of financial disruption posed by unpredictable events such as a pandemic.

Abstract The United States arguably has entered the greatest crisis in its history—bar none. Recent studies have illuminated the political and socioeconomic dimensions of the crisis, but observers have given too little attention to accelerated scientific and technological change as perhaps its central feature. This acceleration has generated a widening range of dangers extending from recurring pandemics and unchecked genetic engineering to intrusive artificial intelligence and global warming. Combined with the U.S. constitutional crisis, such dangers constitute a mega-crisis that is likely to evolve in unpredictable ways. To address it, we must think imaginatively about our past national crises without being blinkered by them. The COVID-19 pandemic shows the urgent need for major reforms of U.S. political, economic, and intellectual institutions—reforms that will become possible only with a dramatic repudiation of Donald Trump and the Republican Party in November.
