Latent Conflicts Within Institutions

Decentralized government services are those which relay decisions taken by the central administration to the local level, and manage government services at local level. Each academy is placed under the authority of a rector, appointed by the President of the Republic. Household size also influences microeconomic behavior. In Western societies, household size has tended to decline in the 20th century, due to a number of factors: early decohabitation of young people (their autonomy leads to earlier separation, facilitated by new housing methods such as renting, subletting and sharing), individualization of behavior (later marriage, lower fertility, higher divorce rates), fewer large families (triumph of the nuclear family to the detriment of complex families), longer life expectancy (separate residence for the elderly).
