August 2012Im Labor der Utopie
Theodor Herzl und das "Altneuland"-Projekt
by Clemens Peck
Theodor Herzl, geboren 1860 in Budapest, schrieb mit »Der Judenstaat« (1896) die entscheidende Abhandlung für die Gründung eines autonomen jüdischen Staatswesens. Das Buch war eine Abwehrreaktion gegen den in Europa sich verschärfenden Antisemitismus, den Herzl besonders als Paris-Korrespondent während der Dreyfus-Affäre erleben musste. Sechs Jahre später erschien sein Roman »Altneuland«, in dem er seine Ideen eines jüdischen Staates in Palästina literarisierte, reflektierte und modifizierte. Herzl schrieb die Utopie, »um zu zeigen, dass es keine ist«. In seinem Buch geht es nicht um Literatur oder Politik – es geht um beides gleichermaßen. Es changiert zwischen Roman und Leben, Imagination und Realisierung. Clemens Peck folgt Herzls Bewegung zwischen diesen beiden Polen – den Experimenten im Labor der Utopie. Er lotet die Leistungen des Romans vor dem Hintergrund des Utopie-Diskurses um 1900 erstmals ausführlich aus und gewinnt neue Einsichten nicht nur über den Roman, sondern auch über die schillernde Person des jüdischen Schriftstellers und Journalisten.

The Future of Indian Agriculture
by Edited by Floor Brouwer, Pramod K Joshi
This book explores structural changes in India's agrifood systems during the next ten to twenty years. The dynamics in the agrifood sector is explored in the context of the overall economy, taking into account agricultural and trade policies and their impacts on national and global markets. The contributors draw on qualitative and quantitative approaches, using both a national model - to focus on urban-rural relations and income distribution - and an international model to focus on patterns of economic growth and international trade.

March 1986Sade. Fourier. Loyola
by Roland Barthes, Maren Sell, Jürgen Hoch
»Nicht aus Lust am Provozieren sind Sade, Fourier und Loyola in ein und demselben Buch zusammengestellt worden, sondern weil alle drei Klassifikatoren, Sprachbegründer waren: der verfemte Schriftsteller begründete eine Sprache des erotischen Vergnügens, der utopische Philosoph eine Sprache des sozialen Glücks und der heilige Jesuit eine Sprache der Anrufung Gottes. Zeichen erfinden und nicht, wie wir es alle tun, nur konsumieren heißt paradoxerweise in den Bereich jenes Nachhinein des Sinns einzutreten, der das signifiant darstellt, kurz, eine Schreibweise praktizieren. Daher beschäftigt sich dieses Buch auch nicht mit dem Inhalt der Schriften dieser drei Autoren (…), sondern es behandelt Sade, Fourier und Loyola als Formulierer, Erfinder von Schreibweisen, Textoperateure.« Roland Barthes

March 2021International Trade in Forest Products
Lumber Trade Disputes, Models and Examples
by G Cornelis van Kooten, Linda Voss
Because of the long-standing Canada-U.S. lumber trade dispute and the current pressure on the world's forests as a renewable energy source, much attention has been directed toward the modelling of international trade in wood products. Two types of trade models are described in this book: one is rooted in economic theory and mathematical programming, and the other consists of two econometric/statistical models--a gravity model rooted in theory and an approach known as GVAR that relies on time series analyses. The purpose of the book is to provide the background theory behind models and facilitate readers in easily constructing their own models to analyse policy questions that they wish to address, whether in forestry or some other sector. Examples in the book are meant to illustrate how models can be used to say something about a variety of issues, including identification of the gains and losses to various players in the North American softwood lumber business, and the potential for redirecting sales of lumber to countries outside the United States. The discussion is expanded to include other products besides lumber, and used to examine, for example, the effects of log export restrictions by one nation on all other forestry jurisdictions, the impacts of climate policies as they relate to the global forest sector, and the impact of oil prices on forest product markets throughout the world. This book will appeal to practising economists and researchers who wish to examine various policies that affect international trade, whether their interest is local or international in scope. Because the book provides the theoretical bases underlying various models, students and practitioners will find this a valuable reference book or supplementary textbook.
