Guest editorial: Biomass conversion for energy: Process intensification and economics by Gregory S. Patience, Yanet Villasana, Daria C. Boffito

“…These technologies must be coupled with mass manufacturing (numbering up manufacturing rather than scaling up) to achieve economic parity with centralized power facilities. They apply to converting biomass to electricity, thermo‐processing of lignocellulosics, and producing liquid fuels, butane, and propane from flared and vented natural gas, landfill gas, and biogas, via gas‐to‐liquids technology.…”

Les partis politiques égyptiens dans la révolution by Clément Steuer

“…Provided that a party devoid of all resources is obviously doomed to disappear, the combination of the two variables used here helps us classify the Egyptian parties into three categories : parties excluded from the system, parties co-opted and incorporated into the system and finally artificial parties, who have practically no resources of their own and are therefore extremely dependent on the central power. During the revolution, the latter had no choice but to defend the regime, if not actively, at least by their wait-and-see attitude. …”

The political agenda effect and state centralization by Acemoglu, K. Daron

“…We provide a potential explanation, based on the “political agenda effect”, for the absence of, and unwillingness to create, centralized power in the hands of a national state. State centralization induces citizens of different backgrounds, interests, regions or ethnicities to coordinate their demands in the direction of more general-interest public goods, and away from parochial transfers. …”
