Flux migratoire et structure régionale de la Slovaquie : régionalisation non-hiérarchique
The main objective is to evaluate an iterative non-hierarchicaltaxonomic procedure for identifying disjoint functional regions by applying it to a matrix of migration flows between the districts of Slovakia in the years 1981-1985. - (MS)
Analyse comparative des méthodes taxonomiques régionales non-hiérarchiques (types de croissance des communes dans la région de Gemer)
A quantitative assessement of three non-hierarchic regional taxonomic methods by applying them to the some data set consisting of 200 communes and eight growth attributes in the period 1971-1990. - (MS)
This paper suggests that a non-hierarchical approach to scalar comparisons may afford a clearer view of environmental relationships operating at different scales. The paper then evaluates the effects of these non-hierarchical, multi-scale
Method for describing spatial hierarchical structure of urban facilities
The AA. propose a new practical method of describing a hierarchical structure. Based upon empirical observations, they assume that the size of a facility is measured by certain numerical values such as population and that a facility is dominated
by the nearest facility which has a larger size. Under these assumptions, they can represent the hierarchical structure of facilities in terms of a tree graph. They notice from the empirical study that the hierarchical structure of retail stores in Nishinomiya
is more similar to the random hierarchical structure model than to Christaller's model. - (KA)

The interventions to address AIDS pandemic are frequently implemented through schools, and are often complex products of negotiation between a range of institutional actors. These institutions appear to operate at different hierarchical levels
. It is difficult to assert that any intervention is more international or more local than any other. Organisations and development interventions are often partly structured in scalar hierarchical ways.
The validity of hierarchical information integration choice experiments to model residential preference and choice
significative sur le plan statistique en fonction des expériences. Ils ne différent pas non plus de ceux qui sont dérivés de modèles conjoints non hiérarchiques.
Hierarchical structures and periodicity in geology and geography
The suggested application of hierarchical systems to geology and geography offers a new view on the evolution of the Earth and a new classification of geosciences. The application of these systems allows the individual fields of geosciences
might help overcome some difficulties around scalar thinking and provide means of conceptualizing sociospatiality in material and non-hierarchical terms. It is important to examine the nature and limits of children's spaces of perception and action.

This paper reviews the progress of carbon trading in China and examines the involvement of the state and financial sectors. The results show a hierarchical relationship between the state and finance and a clear asymmetry of power in the organization
