Abstract

Neoclassical growth theory is the dominant perspective for explaining economic growth. At its core are four implicit assumptions: 1) economic output can become decoupled from energy consumption; 2) economic distribution is unrelated to growth; 3) large institutions are not important for growth; and 4) labor force structure is not important for growth. Drawing on a wide range of data from the economic history of the United States, this book tests the validity of these assumptions and finds no empirical support. Instead, connections are found between the growth in energy consumption and such disparate phenomena as economic redistribution, corporate employment concentration, and changing labor force structure. The integration of energy into an economic growth model has the potential to offer insight into the future effects of fossil fuel depletion on key macroeconomic indicators, which is already manifested in stalled or diminished growth and escalating debt in many national economies. This book argues for an alternative, biophysical perspective to the study of growth, and presents a  set of "stylized facts" that such an approach must successfully explain. Aspects of biophysical analysis are combined with differential monetary analysis to arrive at a unique empirical methodology for investigating the elements and dependencies of the economic growth process.

Abstract

“Germany’s Role in European Russia Policy—A New German Power? provides an innovative framework for analysing how EU-Russia relations might develop well into the twenty-first century.” --- Professor Angela Stent, Director, Center for Eurasian, Russian and East European Studies, Georgetown University “With her sophisticated, well-researched and astute assessment of Germany‘s influence on European policies towards Russia, Liana Fix effectively debunks many of the myths about Germany‘s alleged „hegemony“ in Europe. Essential reading for anyone interested in Germany in Europe.” --- Professor Hanns W. Maull, Senior Distinguished Fellow, German Institute for International and Security Affairs (SWP) “This book is highly recommended to anyone who wishes to understand how EU foreign policy emerges from the complex interaction between member states and EU institutions. I particularly hope it will find many readers in Russia, where experts and policy makers alike tend to frame Germany’s changing role and policy in terms of traditional great power politics.” --- Dr. Sabine Fischer, Team Leader, Public Diplomacy. EU and Russia project, Moscow This book contributes to the debate about a new German power in Europe with an analysis of Germany’s role in European Russia policy. It provides an up-to-date account of Germany’s “Ostpolitik” and how Germany has influenced EU-Russia relations since the Eastern enlargement in 2004 - partly along, partly against the interests and preferences of new member states. The volume combines a rich empirical analysis of Russia policy with a theory-based perspective on Germany’s power and influence in the EU. The findings demonstrate that despite Germany’s central role, exercising power within the EU is dependent on legitimacy and acceptance by other member states. Liana Fix is a historian and political scientist. In her work, she focuses on German foreign policy, Russia and Eastern Europe as well as European security and has published widely in academia, think tanks and national and international media. She completed a doctorate degree at the Justus Liebig University Giessen and a Master’s degree at the London School of Economics and Political Science.

Abstract

Quelle est la place des femmes dans l’industrie du spectacle du XIXe siècle au-delà des métiers de performance très exposés qu’exercent les actrices, chanteuses, et danseuses ? Comment les femmes qui dirigent une salle ou une troupe peuvent-elles se frayer un chemin dans un milieu socio-économique considéré principalement comme une affaire d’hommes ? Comment être autrice, organisatrice de tournées et de programmations, critique littéraire, écuyère ou maîtresse de ballet ?Dans une perspective pluridisciplinaire et internationale, ce volume propose des interprétations et des réponses à ces enjeux qui embrassent le monde du spectacle dans sa diversité et sa complexité. Les contributrices proposent de jouer au féminin l’adaptation à un milieu socio-professionnel masculin, entre défi des préjugés et mimétisme, censure, voire autocensure, et affirmation de soi, utilisation avisée des aléas de la vie familiale et professionnelle et création de nouveaux réseaux.
