Germans against Hitler

"The sun shines, and Hitler is master of this city. The sun shines, and dozens of my friends are in prison, possibly dead. Thousands of people like Frl. Schroeder are acclimatizing themselves, like an animal which changes its coat for the winter. After all, whatever government is in power, they are doomed to live in this town." These are among the final entries in Christopher Isherwood's Berlin Diaries. Hitler has legally assumed power and Isherwood, who "can't altogether believe that any of this has really happened," will leave the city he has come to love and return to England. The Nazi Movement that began a decade ago in seedy Bavarian beer halls has now conquered its very antithesis, Prussia. It seems unstoppable. The people, as always, will adapt or perish

Interfirm heterogeneity: nature, sources and consequences for industrial dynamics. An introduction

International audienceContemporary economic analysis is largely subject to rather bizarre schizofrenic syndromes. On the one hand, over the last thirty years or so, macro theories have tried to squeeze the interpretation of whatever aggregate dynamics down to some sort of decision-theoretic framework in which the increasingly mythical ''representative agent'' was doing all the action. Whatever statistical properties of the time-series, being it productivity and GDP growth, fluctuations, employment, investment, had to be explained as the equilibrium outcome of some sophisticated inter-temporal maximization exercise by such an agent. Dynamic Stochastic General Equilibrium models are the dominant genre in this spirit. On the micro side largely the opposite has happened. Empirical analyses drawing upon an increasing ensemble of micro longitudinal datasets have powerfully highlighted the ubiquitous, large and persistent heterogeneity in all dimensions of business firms' characteristics and dynamics one cared to look at

Dropped Make-out An Ethan Dixon Story

I wasn’t quick on getting my voice recorder, so I missed a little bit of the story, but basically Ethan prefaced the story with how he had kissed someone on June 30, all I had missed was the statement of kissing. E: Every June 30th since I was like 12 (others around state their admiration) 12 or 13 cause its my buddies birthday and we just brought girls over every time. but um I brought this girl over and then she drove me home it was like one in the morning and this was before my mom was like chill with me chil [cuts himself off] staying out super late cause that was like sophomore year and so we were driving up] to my house and there was just this lookout and then she pulls into the lookout. Like I’m so tired[rubs his face into his hands as kids do when they are tired.] And then but like I thought she’s cute I want to kiss her so I got hyped. Started talking to her and whatever and then uh we start kissing a little bit and then it like stops and then the scariest thing happened this is what happened I remember her right hand is this [places his hand on his thigh and runs it over his hips][crowd laughs] right here goes right over my donger continues and then she pulls the handle lever and I fall back and nail my head on the effing bed or whatever. Nail my head and by the time im like conscious again shes like on top of me like normally I would be like this is sick but the second that happened just like instincts of I need to get out of here. Ive never been that scared in my entire life. So shes on top of me and we probably made out for like 25 seconds then I was like hey I probably need to get back home. And she drove me home. Ghosted her for the rest of my life. *This interview continues on another piece of folklore titled “Trunking Gone Wrong: An Ethan Dixon Story” filed under pranks and games

Swallowing Injustice to Build Community: Latin America After the Era of State Terror

From the mid-1960\u27s to the late 1980\u27s (even later in certain countries), militarized governments in most of Latin America enforced their view of a desirable public order by terrorizing great numbers of citizens who happened to have different views and also their friends and relations and persons who, whatever their views or lack thereof, objected to terror as a means of governing.

Graduate Record 2000: The Future is Now.

We waited for the world to end… It didn\u27t happen. We watched the skies for catastrophic or miraculous events. The sky was empty. As the clock struck midnight on December 31, 1999, we were ready for whatever the world was going to throw our way. And the world balked. After months, even years, of weathering predictions of disaster and chaos descending with the advent of Year 2000, we got nothing. The worried analysts who said computers around the world would crash just looked like fools. The doomsday predictors didn\u27t even have good excuses as to why nothing happened. So we sit on the other side of Y2K, knowing that we spent all our time and worries getting to Jan. 1, 2000, but having little idea what to do now that we have made it past the dawn of the new millennium. In essence, we survived Y2K and made it into the future. Therefore, the future is now.https://dc.swosu.edu/yearbooks/1115/thumbnail.jp

Under erasure.

This thesis is a collection of eleven short, unrelated stories. These stories range in length from thirty-three to two pages. They are organized according to how I sensed they should be when I drew up the table of contents. I had not planned on there being any unifying theme to this collection but because I wrote most of these stories during the same short span of weeks, they couldn't keep from being influenced by what happened to be on my mind at the time. I didn't realize there was anything on my mind but when I read the stories I found that they were mostly asking two questions: What is beauty and how do we experience it? What is a mind and how do we experience it? Four questions. Whatever. Writers whose ideas influenced this collection include: Felisberto Hernandez, Franz Kafka, Jose Saramago, Philip K. Dick and Douglas Hofstadter. The title is meant to suggest that the collection is necessary if not sufficient.

The Atlantic Crisis

It would in any case have been desirable to review the transatlantic relationship more than a decade after the end of the Cold War, taking account of the interlinked processes of globalization and a changing security agenda. The events of 11 September 2001 and the publication of the U.S. national security strategy in September 2002 reinforced the need. A review was made imperative by the fissures opened up within Western alliance and security structures, as well as globally, by the action of the United States and United Kingdom against Iraq, and arguably the requirement was further reinforced by the reelection of President George W. Bush in November 2004. Whatever the longer- term outcome of that reelection and of Iraq, transatlantic relations have changed, as have intra-European ones. It is time, especially for Britain, to think hard about what has happened and what the next steps should be.https://digital-commons.usnwc.edu/usnwc-newport-papers/1022/thumbnail.jp
