Abstract

Wealthy, powerful, and potentially dangerous, hedge-fund moguls have become the It Boys of twenty-first-century capitalism. Beating the market was long thought to be impossible, but hedge funds cracked the market's mysteries and made fortunes in the process. Drawing on his unprecedented access to the industry, esteemed financial writer Sebastian Mallaby tells the inside story of hedge funds' origins in the 1960s to their role in the financial crisis of 2007-2009. While other sectors have failed or been bailed out, the hedge-fund industry has survived the test of 2007-2009 far better than its rivals. To a surprising degree, the future of finance lies in the history of hedge funds

Abstract

This book examines the political and conceptual metamorphosis of China's oil industry from self-reliance to internationalization. Through the empirical case study of Daqing, the premiere oilfield of the People's Republic of China (PRC) for most of the postwar period and a symbol of industrialization as well as self-reliance, key historical developmental concepts and events are analyzed. Japan's role in stimulating the development of the China's oil industry will also be highlighted as the Japanese government and its business sectors emerged as a supplier of technology and equipment to the Chi

Abstract

How Brazilian postwar avant-garde artists updated modernism in a way that was radically at odds with European and North American art historical narratives. Brazilian avant-garde artists of the postwar era worked from a fundamental but productive out-of-jointness. They were modernist but distant from modernism. Europeans and North Americans may feel a similar displacement when viewing Brazilian avant-garde art; the unexpected familiarity of the works serves to make them unfamiliar. In Constructing an Avant-Garde, Sergio Martins seizes on this uncanny obliqueness and uses it as the basis for a reconfigured account of the history of Brazil's avant-garde. His discussion covers not only widely renowned artists and groups-including Helio Oiticica, Lygia Clark, Cildo Meireles, and neoconcretism-but also important artists and critics who are less well known outside Brazil, including Mario Pedrosa, Ferreira Gullar, Amilcar de Castro, Luis Sacilotto, Antonio Dias, and Rubens Gerchman. Martins argues that artists of Brazil's postwar avant-garde updated modernism in a way that was radically at odds with European and North American art historical narratives. He describes defining episodes in Brazil's postwar avant-garde, discussing crucial critical texts, including Gullar's Theory of the Non-Object, a phenomenological account of neoconcrete artworks; Oiticica, constructivity, and Mondrian; portraiture, self-portraiture, and identity; the nonvisual turn and missed encounters with conceptualism; and monochrome, manifestos, and engagement. The Brazilian avant-garde's hijacking of modernism, Martins shows, gained further complexity as artists began to face their international minimalist and conceptualist contemporaries in the 1960s and 1970s. Reconfiguring not only art history but their own history, Brazilian avant-gardists were able to face contemporary challenges from a unique-and oblique-standpoint.

Abstract

Basierend auf bislang unveröffentlichten Dokumenten aus den Brüsseler NATO-Archiven sowie amerikanischen, britischen, deutschen diplomatischen und militärisch-nachrichtendienstlichen Berichten untersucht der Autor die Haltung der Nordatlantischen Allianz gegenüber dem durch eine Defensivallianz mit der Sowjetunion verbundenen, neutralen Finnland. Die regionale Perspektive Finnlands kommt unter den Gesichtspunkten des globalen Konfliktes zwischen détente, containment und roll back in den Blick. Finnland war dabei keineswegs nur Paradebeispiel "friedlicher Koexistenz". Das Ringen um das ostwärts der NATO-Nordflanke gelegene Finnland war ein Kampf um dessen wahrgenommene Zugehörigkeit zwischen Ost und West.
