Welfare state, social policy and social sustainability, within the context of the permacrisis by Nikos Papadakis, Stylianos Ioannis Tzagkarakis

“…In Europe as well as globally, addressing these issues is of major importance in order to ensure social sustainability, given that the permacrisis (multiple crises), along with the Mega-Trends have a clear impact on the structure of economy and labor market, industrial relations systems, and business models.MethodsThe present paper analyses the state of play of social sustainability in Europe and aims to identify specific policy responses that could offer viable solutions to old and emerging challenges in terms of social inclusion through the examination of secondary quantitative data.ResultsThe permacrisis era, along with the Mega-Trends that are taking place and seem to gradually have a clear impact on the structure of economy and labor market, substantially affecting every aspect of society, since social inequalities have the tendency to interrelate and getting reproduced.DiscussionThere is a need for knowledge-based and evidence-informed policy making, both in terms of policy design and implementation, for a true and actual sustainable (as well as inclusive) development, within momentous times.…”

Research and Experiment on an Adaptive Feedforward Compensation Composite Control Strategy for an Electro-Hydraulic Servo System by Mei Luhai

“…In order to reduce the tracking and response errors of the electro-hydraulic servo system, improve the dynamic response quality of the system, enhance the adaptive ability of the system, and effectively solve the common problems of nonlinear interference and irregular load disturbance in the servo system, a research and experimental scheme for the adaptive feedforward compensation composite control strategy of the electro-hydraulic servo system was proposed. First, the basic structure and mathematical models of the important components of the electro-hydraulic servo test bench were introduced, and the control structure diagrams of torque control and position control were elaborated. …”

Sufficiency and the Shifting Dynamics of Efficiency: A Political Economy and Jurisprudence Review by Muhammad Syarahil Mutianwar Efendi, Reza Ilham Maulana

“…Without efficiency, the structure of capitalism collapses, as it has become the ontological prerequisite sustaining the structure of production, distribution, and accumulation of capital; Contrarily, efficiency leads to the collapse of the Earth’s systems, as it inherently overlooks ecological boundaries and fails to recognize the limits of nature as a fundamental principle in economic activity. …”
