The Development of Territorial Cohesion Policies in Latvia
2011
Abstract This article examines how territorial cohesion policies have taken shape in Latvia in response to European debates on the subject. It argues that the conceptualization of territorial cohesion in Latvia is closely linked to the country's historical development path and primarily reflects national concerns with social cohesion. While Latvian national and regional level institutions rely on open processes of policy-making and stakeholder involvement, which were developed during the period of post-soviet transition when the country's planning system and regional policy approach were reformulated, the same open and consultative approach is not always evident during the drafting or consi…

2005
This article first presents a historical review of Spain's involvement in the European Spatial Development Perspective (ESDP) preparation process to determine whether ESDP guidelines are different from, contrary to or in harmony with the interests of Spanish proposals. Particular attention is paid to the priority lines and territorial objectives of the Spanish delegation and its emphasis in substantive issues related to cohesion, and linking spatial planning with European Union (EU) funding. If, as the network paradigm maintains, spatial development is not possible without new methods of governance, our work has to focus on two related questions. The first question regards the evolution and…
Classifiers, Quantifiers and Class Nouns in Hmong
1993
Four operations of nominal concretization are crucial for presenting a typology of classifier languages: individualization, classification, relationalization (possession), and referentialization. The first three of these operations are at work in the Hmong classifier system. The development of classifiers is described in connection with the degree of grammaticalization which will be measured by the three parameters of [± exact], [± entity], and cohesion. These parameters will be arranged in a three-dimensional continuum (cf. Fig. II.) which leads to the following evolutional steps of increasing grammaticalization: nouns, class nouns, quantifiers, intrinsic quantifiers (to be defined in the …
