This book looks at the roots of a global visual news culture: the trade in illustrations of the news between European illustrated newspapers in the mid-nineteenth century. In the age of nationalism, we might suspect these publications to be filled with nationally produced content, supporting a national imagined community. However, the large-scale transnational trade in illustrations, which this book uncovers, points out that nineteenth-century news consumers already looked at the same world. By exchanging images, European illustrated newspapers provided them with a shared, transnational, experience.

Social movements are not only remembered in personal experience, but also through cultural carriers that shape how later movements see themselves and are seen by others. The present collection zooms in on the role of photography in this memory-activism nexus. How do iconographic conventions shape images of protest? Why do some images keep movements in the public eye, while others are quickly forgotten? What role do images play in linking different protests, movements, and generations of activists? Have the affordances of digital media made it easier for activists to use images in their memory politics, or has the digital production and massive online exchange of images made it harder to identify and remember a movement via a single powerful image? Bringing together experts in visual culture, cultural memory, social movements, and digital humanities, this collection presents new empirical, theoretical, and methodological insights into the visual memory of protest.

"Donkere wolken pakken zich samen boven de geschiedschrijving. In een politiek klimaat waarin bezuinigingen de wetenschap overschaduwen ligt er een toenemende druk op maatschappelijke verantwoording. De vraag naar de relevantie van geschiedschrijving is van alle tijden, maar juist in deze tijd urgent. In 'Snelweg naar Rome' kiezen jonge historici ervoor het debat niet te ontwijken maar op zoek te gaan naar antwoorden. Als bijna afgestudeerden worden ze gedwongen te reflecteren op hun positie en de zin en onzin van hun vak. Ze zijn ervan overtuigd dat je van geschiedenis kan leren, maar hoe? 'Snelweg naar Rome' biedt niet alleen een verhaal over het verleden, maar ook een kijkje achter de schermen van het historisch atelier. Hoe ziet de toekomstige generatie geschiedkundigen haar rol in de samenleving?"--Cover.

The business of life insurers is highly influenced by the interest rate curve, as their future benefits are discounted by it. However, there is no straightforward assumption to determine the correct discount curve. In this thesis we will investigate the Heath, Jarrow and Morton method to model a proper discount curve. Using forward rate data provided by the Bank of England, we apply this stochastic model to determine the future dynamics of the discount curve. Afterwards, we apply this framework to price two classical life insurance products and examine the impact of future unpredictable changes in the discount curve on the future policy values of these products. This risk is called systematic interest rate risk.
