Abstract

The well-known artist Georg Daniel Heumann (1691-1759), who came from Nuremberg, had been appointed as a university copper engraver at the Georgia Augusta in Göttingen in 1740. Because of his interest in itinerant street traders, he became the creator of the Göttingischen Ausruff, a series of prints of 30 artistic etchings. They are a valuable documentation of itinerant trade in a Lower Saxon agrarian town that was becoming a university town and where the traditional rural range of goods competed with the needs of a more sophisticated section of the population. With his excellent powers of observation and delight in detail, Heumann authentically captured the reality of life in Göttingen's street trading and the new ambience of the city. He did not depict types of street vendors, but individuals in their dress, body language, range of goods or services, Low German exclamations, and the way they transported and offered their wares. In the commentary, the editor presents the status of street trading within the Göttingen market regulations and the established guild system, which goods were desired and which were undesirable.Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

Abstract

Will Evans was the proprietor of the Shiprock Trading Company in early 20th century New Mexico. Probably more than most of his fellow traders, he had a strong interest in Navajo culture. He published in the local newspaper and other periodicals and compiled many of his pieces into a book manuscript. His subjects were Navajos he knew and traded with, their stories of historic events such as the Long Walk, and descriptions of their culture as he, an outsider without academic training, understood it.

Abstract

Il est appréciable que le peuple de cette nation ne comprenne rien au système bancaire et monétaire. Car si tel était le cas, je pense que nous serions confrontés à une révolution avant demain matin. Jamais cette phrase d’Henry Ford n’aura été si actuelle, et ce grâce aux transactions à haute fréquence. Si le trading ultra-rapide (qui représente désormais plus de 60% des échanges boursiers aux Etats-Unis) fait de plus en plus parler de lui, il n’existe aucun ouvrage accessible en français sur ces algorithmes qui calculent à la micro-seconde pertes et profits. 6 vient combler cette absence. Le sujet de « 5 », suite et fin de « 6 », sera principalement la montée en puissance de la modélisation mathématique des marchés, qui n’a qu’un seul objectif : prédire le futur (où le sous-titre de ce second opus : “Retour vers le futur”). Ces théories prédictives sont apparues en France à la fin du XXe siècle, et ont commencé à pénétrer le monde de la finance américaine dans les années 1960, un certain nombre des précurseurs de la mathématisation des marchés ayant auparavant testé leurs théories à… Las Vegas.

Abstract

William H. Williams operated a slave pen in Washington, DC, known as the Yellow House, and actively trafficked in enslaved men, women, and children for more than twenty years. His slave trading activities took an extraordinary turn in 1840 when he purchased twenty-seven enslaved convicts from the Virginia State Penitentiary in Richmond with the understanding that he could carry them outside of the United States for sale. When Williams conveyed his captives illegally into New Orleans, allegedly while en route to the foreign country of Texas, he prompted a series of courtroom dramas that would last for almost three decades. Based on court records, newspapers, governors' files, slave manifests, slave narratives, travelers' accounts, and penitentiary data, Williams' Gang examines slave criminality, the coastwise domestic slave trade, and southern jurisprudence as it supplies a compelling portrait of the economy, society, and politics of the Old South.

Abstract

The Markets in Financial Instruments Directive (MiFID) is a detailed re-writing of the regulation of capital markets. To the extent those rules permit, the Financial Services Authority (FSA) is also introducing high-level 'principles-based regulation'. In response to this, Paul Nelson presents practical guidance on the regulation of the capital markets, ranging from new issues and IPOs to investment banking, broker-dealing and asset management. All laws and rules relevant to the regulation of the capital markets are explained and put into context within the economic operation of markets, institutions and products, the European Single Market, the FSA's policies and objectives, the historical evolution of the regulations and the general civil and criminal law. Drawing on 30 years' experience as a practitioner, and referring to a vast range of supporting materials, the author provides an insightful analysis and critique of the rules, the rule makers and the institutions.
