Toothpaste tube theory : ウィキペディア英語版 | Toothpaste tube theory
There are different theories, in different formulations, which each have been popularly called the toothpaste tube theory. These theories usually are based on the observation that when one squeezes one end of the toothpaste tube, toothpaste is inevitably extruded from the other end. This is intended as an analogy to the fact that pressure built up in some finite bounded system needs to be released somewhere or the system will break. Although, ''prima facie'', the theory is an explanation about the movement of physical objects, it has also been used to explain social and political behavior, as well as relationships involving abstract concepts. == Applications of the theory == In administrative law, the toothpaste tube theory describes problems of displacement, for instance, where discretion or accountability are shifted elsewhere. In the case, Byrnes v. LCI Communication Holdings Co. an appeals court rejected one formulation of the toothpaste tube theory.〔http://www.employee-leasing.org/Employee_Leasing_CaseLawDetail57042/Page9.htm〕 In labor law, the toothpaste tube theory〔''Taking back the workers' law,'' Ellen J. Dannin〕 means employer and employee relations are always under pressure. In economics, the toothpaste tube theory〔''Britain's Economic Prospects Reconsidered'' Alec Cairncross, and Ditchley 〕 may be applied to, for instance, exports. Under this formulation, when home demand is squeezed, exports are extruded.
