This paper focuses on gendered mobilities of highly skilled researchers working abroad. It is based on an empirical qualitative study that explored the mobility aspirations of Austrian scientists who were working in the United States at the time they were interviewed. Supported by a case study, the paper demonstrates how a qualitative research strategy including graphic drawings sketched by the interviewed persons can help us gain a better understanding of the gendered importance of social relations for the future mobility aspirations of scientists working abroad.

The purpose of the article is to identify, in the interests of protecting the rights of entrepreneurs, the functioning of the institution of court duty in economic justice (its compensatory, preventive and social functions) and find ways to harmonise such functioning. The methodo-logical basis of the article is the subject-activity research strategy. It describes the imbalance in the functioning of the court duty institution. Duty rates do not deter unjustified applications to the courts, and the courts have financial problems that can be solved with additional duty revenues and thus significantly improve the quality of economic justice by ensuring real and rapid protection of entrepreneurs' rights. It is justified to strengthen the preventive and compensatory functions and to strengthen the social function of court duty more adequately. It is proposed to conduct social and legal experiments to adjust court duty rates, and to rely on European indicators of court duty collec-tion. It is justified to increase budget financing of courts on the basis of European average indicators of financing per inhabitant rather than as a percentage of the gross domestic product. The argument is made in favour of an increase in duty rates with a parallel increase in court funding: the authority of the court will increase as judges and participants in a case become aware that they have received funds for justice not simply from the "public trough", but from "own" ("paid", "earned") funds. Conclusions: 1. An opinion has been expressed about an increase in arbitration duty rates, as the institution of court duty currently has neither a preventive nor a compensatory function. Inadequate consolidation of the social function of the court duty institution must be eliminated. 2. The increase in the share of unjustified appeals requires more rapid counteraction: the starting duty rates must be constantly indexed to the inflation rate and the possibility of additional increases must be determined on the basis of European averages and social and legal experi-ments. 3. In order to strengthen the trust of entrepreneurs in courts, it is necessary to introduce European standards in the field of justice: it is advisable to bring the funding indicators for Russian courts up to the average level of funding for courts in Council of Europe member states. 4. A study of the European experience of changes in the volumes of two financial flows - revenue from court fees and court financing - makes it possible to conclude that it is justified to increase these flows substantially at the same time. As a possible option, it is pro-posed to increase court duty rates for legal entities and individual entrepreneurs by 20% per annum of the current rates (in the future - to double court duty fees), to increase annual current state budget financing of the court system by 10% (in the future - to double the financing).

Employment Needs

Dairy InSight research project, no. 10015/2003 sought to establish the future employment needs of the industry from a study of the future dairy farm labour market; to estimate future labour required and available; and to provide a full discussion of factors affecting those estimates. The report on which this paper is based was intended to provide a foundation document for any future studies of work and employment in dairy farming. The research strategy adopted was to use the Human Capability Framework (HCF) to analyse the future dairy farm labour market. The use of the HCF to analyse the future dairy farm employment situation was implemented by a systematic consideration of each of the elements influencing the supply side (Capacity) of the dairy farm labour market, the demand side (Opportunity), and the bringing of those both together (Matching), comprising the three main components of the HCF. Statistical resources were reviewed and found distinctly wanting. Other documentary sources were considered, expert opinions canvassed, and key sites and parties visited, to facilitate the industry wide analysis. All components of the analysis, together with practical recommendations, were put together in a single report, which ·was submitted to Dairy InSight, the industry good funder for the dairy industry. They are summarised in this paper.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to conduct a critical analysis of the commonly projected visions on the future of built environment, focusing on transformative research. The primary question is will the construction sector be able to make the projected transformative leap even if the history of technology adoption in construction suggests otherwise? And, what role can academic research play? Design/methodology/approach This paper is based on a reflective research and qualitative review of academic articles, white papers and reported projections for the future of construction. The reflections are based on discussions with colleagues and students, including thought experiments. Findings There is a general agreement across various sources about the key technical and social drivers for the future of construction. However, these projections seem to be emanating from industry insiders, and more diversity and creativity is needed in exploring alternative possibilities. Research limitations/implications The paper should be useful for researchers in assessing their research strategy, especially those aiming to focus on the future of construction and transformative research. The findings of this paper suggest the need for collaboration and explorations with diverse disciplines, including those that may not appear immediately connected to digital construction. Practical implications The paper should be useful for individuals and organizations, especially start-ups that are seeking novel opportunities to disrupt the future of construction. Originality/value The originality and value of this research lies in a timely critique of the commonly projected trends in the future of digital construction. The use of reflective research and thought experiments emphasizes the need for divergent thinking and creative research methods in construction research.

The importance of 'place' for mental and physical wellbeing is well-documented. Yet profound social, economic, and technological changes increasingly challenge those who regulate, own, fund, develop, manage, operationalise, and/or use places. This generates tensions between competing stakeholder interests and potentially affects the continued existence of different places. I present my research against a backdrop of combined cross-disciplinary concepts that include: space and place, legal geography, temporality, legal pluralism and governance. I examine gaps in the literature around the interactions between regulatory forces and exhibited behaviours, and their potential influence on the future existence of particular places. The overarching aim of the research programme is to explore law's manifestations in private/public places. To achieve this, I developed a grounded theory research strategy. I also implemented multiple methods, including law in action, doctrinal and empirical approaches, to generate robust findings and minimise methods bias. My collection of seven publications demonstrates an overarching theme of place-sustainability. The research programme makes a four-fold contribution. First, it adopts a specific combination of perspectives and methods for investigating: perceived manifestations of law; the law's quest to achieve a balance of stakeholder interests; relationships between place-related regulatory forces and exhibited behaviours; inter-stakeholder tensions; and, their combined influence on the future existence of places. Second, it demonstrates how a multi-disciplinary approach can be used to generate new understandings of place-sustainability within the context of a particular range of private/public places. Third, it evidences the complex nature of place-sustainability, particularly around: the enduring prioritisation of property ownership and occupation, the tensions between competing stakeholder interests, and the general inefficacy of a black-letter approach. Fourth, it details recommendations for combining legislative development, collaborative working, and supporting structural and cultural change to ease inter-stakeholder tensions and support place-sustainability within the context of a dynamic environment.

This “blue sky” paper argues that future conversational systems that can engage in multiparty, collaborative dialogues will require a more fundamental approach than existing technology. This paper identifies significant limitations of the state of the art, and argues that our returning to the plan-based approach to dialogue will provide a stronger foundation. Finally, I suggest a research strategy that couples neural network-based semantic parsing with plan-based reasoning in order to build a collaborative dialogue manager.
