subject to the export quota system known as the Registry of Export (ROE). ▪ This policy artificially lowers prices by limiting exports and announcing export quotas without a given pattern. ▪ These policies reduce corn and wheat production in favor for soybean production. o Export Licenses (ROEs) ▪ The USESCI issues and regulates export licenses (ROEs) in the grain and beef sectors. ▪ Exporters have 45 days from the date of the export license request to notify the Argentine Customs Office of the destination of the shipment. ▪ If within 5 days after the license is approved, the exporter pays the export tax and the destination notification period is extended 365 days. ▪ The government has provided ROEs for 8.0 million tons. ▪ This system is expected to end in December 2015. ▪ Elimination ● In 2015, the incoming government opened exports and eliminated ROEs. ● All export licenses schemes first developed in 2006 would be eliminated. ● This is most significant for corn, wheat, beef, and dairy products. o Export Rebate Modifications ▪ Decree 1341/2016 raised and/or introduces export rebates for various agricultural products, including beef, horticultural products, organic products, plant oils, and various grain flours/meals. ▪ The purpose of this measure is to promote diversified agro-industrial development by promoting greater value-added production chains and exports. ▪ Its estimated cost is over US $160 million. ▪ This decree helps meets one of the Macri Administration’s main campaign promises to encourage innovation in the sector and bolster regional rural economies. 2 ▪ This decree also aims to support a burgeoning sector of the agro-export complex – organic and geographically-specific production. ▪ On top of the product-specific export rebate, exporters will be able to offer an additional 0.5% rebate for those products outlined by geographical origin or alternative production methods (organic, etc.). o Export Taxes ▪ In 2015, the incoming government reduced and eliminated export taxes. ▪ There will be a gradual reduction of export taxes for soybeans and its byproducts by 5% every year and elimination of export taxes for all other agricultural products. ▪ Decree 757/2018 ● Argentina issued the decree in August 2018, which modifies its campaign pledge to reduce export taxes on soybean oil and meal products, and imposed a six month suspension of the gradual tax reduction. All products will now be subject to variable export tax. ● Raw commodities, including corn, wheat, soybeans and soybean products, will be taxed at 4 Argentine pesos/1 US Dollar (an increase of 10.8% at current exchange rate.) This change is expected to extend to the end of December of 2020. ● Corn margins will be squeezed due to the addition of the 10% tax on exports. ▪ Decree 37/2019 o On December 14, 2019, the GOA eliminated the 4 pesos per US dollar cap on export taxes on grains, and raised taxes on all grains to 12%. o In addition, Congress passed Law 27,541 “Social Solidarity and Productive Reactivation” in which the government gained authorization to increase export taxes further, up to 15%. o With the current rates from November 2019 and the increase from Decree 37, this puts a max of 15% increase in export tax on wheat, barley, corn and rice. For soybeans, the rate is 33%. The rates became effective March 4, 2020. o ● Import Tariffs o Argentina increases import tariffs – no commodities in database are affected. ● Policy Changes o As of April 2014, there is no production or processing subsidies for grains in Argentina. 3 o On December 10, 2015, policy changes were made including the reduction of the export tax on soybeans and its byproducts by 5% and eliminating export taxes on all other agricultural commodities. o On December 17, 2015, policy changes were made that included the removal of foreign exchange restrictions and devaluation of the Argentine peso by about 45% (over 50% to date). This boosted competitiveness of agricultural exporters and was a positive signal to producers who waited for such an adjustment to begin liquidating their inventories. ● Production and Processing Subsidies o There are no production or processing subsidies for grains in Argentina ● Wheat and Corn o Wheat and Corn Mills Subsidies ▪ Wheat and corn mills are given a monthly subsidy for the volume of wheat sold in the domestic market (subject to a maximum volume per mill established by the Group of Coordination and Evaluation of Subsidies for Internal Commerce (USESCI), formerly the National Office of Agricultural Trade Control (ONCCA)). ▪ The subsidy is the value per metric ton based on the difference between the theoretical FAS price (TFP) published by the Ministry of Agriculture (or price supposedly paid by the millers to corn and wheat farmers) and the “supply price” published by the Secretariat of Domestic Trade. ▪ Small- and medium-sized farmers (up to 800 MT of wheat and up to 1,240 MT of corn production levels) are rebated the difference between the FOB official price and the TFP published daily by the Ministry of Agriculture. o Wheat and Corn Policies ▪ Policies for wheat and corn are primarily aimed at maintaining sufficient domestic supplies at reduced prices through: ● Domestic subsidies ● Export taxes ● Controls on export licenses ▪ There is also a subsidy program in place for small and medium producers that allow for a rebate of export taxes paid. Biofuels ● Average Countervailing Duty 2013 o In 2013, the EU implemented an average countervailing duty of 24.6% for 5 years on biodiesel imports from Argentina due to alleged dumping, which caused imports of Argentine biodiesel to drop to almost nil. o No changes in EU policy are expected for 2014 and 2015. 4 ● Ethanol Production o Currently (as of July 2017), the growing ethanol industry is based on sugarcane and more recently grains. ● Exports o Export Rebate ▪ As of July 2017, bioethanol exports from non-Mercosur countries have a 4.05% rebate. o Export Tax ▪ In June and July 2017, the Government of Argentina set the export tax on biodiesel at zero percent (it dropped from 0.13% set in May 2017). ▪ No biodiesel exports are expected in 2019 to the U.S. despite its preliminary lowering of the countervailing duties due to remaining anti- dumping duties. ● Imports o As of July 2017, bioethanol imports from non-Mercosur countries pay 20%. ● Policies o 2006 Biofuels Law 26,093 ▪ Since the beginning of 2007, Argentina has had in place a Biofuels Law which mandates gasoline to be mixed with bioethanol and diesel with biodiesel. The original mandates were 5% each, but after several modifications, gasoline is currently (as of July 21, 2016) at 12% and diesel at 10%. ▪ These efforts are influenced by their long-term strategy to mitigate emissions via sectorial plans between energy, transportation, land use, agriculture and forestry. ▪ Argentina has no specific environmental or social/economic sustainability criteria for biofuels. ▪ The Argentinean Government raised the biodiesel mix under the local mandate from 8% to 10% in 2014 to partially offset smaller exports due to market restrictions imposed by the EU. The government will increase the biodiesel mix from 8% to 9% in January 2014 and from 9% to 10% in February 2014.

  • Ronald Reagan and the Mysterious Russian Soul
    Ronald Reagan and the mysterious Russian soul Guy Kortsarz August 20, 2018 1 Ronald Reagan President Ronald Reagan held conservative beliefs. He wanted a small government as the government is the problem. The key for growth is release the power of the private market. And the economy was booming when he was a president. Only Obama has a higher growth in a quarter than Reagan (yes the best quarter growth of Obama is better than that of Reagan, and the best of Reagan so far is better than the best of Trump). Reagan hated unions a nd busted them. He called people on food stamps welfare queens. He turned the word Liberal into a four letters word. The foreign policy of Reagan was neo-conservative. He conducted many wars in various places in the world. He had a very big scandal, selling missiles to Iran. Reagan cut taxes for the rich forming the so called supply-side economic. If rich people will have money, this will trickle down to the middle class. The claim was that taxes will pay for themselves as a result of growth in the economy. But Reagan also raised taxes 11 times, he compromises and worked with the Democrats a lot. Reagan tripled the debt, a thing he saw as a personal failure. In social areas he was a moderate. He did not care and did not think much about gays, abortions, guns an the likes. Reagan almost never went to church. Reagan came from Hollywood. He believed in the good endings like almost all films had at the time.

    A Cinematic Battle: Three Yugoslav War Films from the 1960s By Dragan Batanĉev Submitted to Central European University History Department In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Thesis Supervisor: Professor Balázs Trencsényi Second Reader: Professor Marsha Siefert CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2012 Statement of Copyright Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author. Copies by any process, either in full or part, may be made only in accordance with the instructions given by the Author and lodged in the Central European Library. Details may be obtained from the librarian. This page must form a part of any such copies made. Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author. CEU eTD Collection i Abstract The content of my thesis will present the analysis of three Yugoslav war films from the 1960s that they offer different views on World War II as a moment of creation of the state that aimed towards supranationalism and classlessness. I will analyse the films in terms of their production, iconography and reception as to show that although the Yugoslav government, led by a great cinephile Josip Broz Tito, demonstrated interest in the war film genre, there were opposing filmmakers‟ views on what WWII should represent in the Yugoslav history and collective mythology. By using the concept of historiophoty I will demonstrate that the war films represented the failure of Yugoslav government in integrating different nations into a supranational Yugoslav society in which conflicts between different social agents (the state, workers and peasants) will finally be resolved.

  • The Black Wave and Marxist Revisionism
    1 The Black Wave and Marxist Revisionism THE VIOLENT BREAKUP of the multiethnic, multicultural Yugo­ slav state and the wars fought on its territory are clear symptoms of ag­ gressiveethnonationalism becoming the dominant ideological model in che region. Contrary to the fashionableviews about the "ancient" Balkan hatreds, however, this disintegrative model was in no way predestined to overwhelm the Yugoslav society but rather developed as a direct conse­ quence of the complex political struggles in it. Although the flames of nationalism fullyflooded the region in the 1990s, during the mid and late 1980s they were carefullyand patiently nurtured by the "ethnically con­ cerned" intellectual and cultural elites (the two key events in this respect being the appearance in 1986 of the "Memorandum," charted by the Ser­ bian Academy of Sciences and Arts, and in 1987 of the "Contributions to the Slovenian National Programme," written by sixteen individually signed authors and published in the magazine Nova Revija; both signaled the legitimation of open, public promotion of ethnocentric national plat­ forms and thus the beginning of organized political-ideological contes­ tation of the existing Yugoslav federal order).1 The emergence of these nationalist leaderships-whose popularity grew ever more rapidly as the decade of the 1980s approached its end-were, in turn, predicated on the gradual dissolution of the socialist ideology and its sociopolitical struc­ ture in the country, the visibility of which process became ever more 12 Chapter 1 prominent after the death of Josip Broz Tito in 1980. In other words, Yugoslavia did not die because of its multiethnic, multicultural compo­ sition.
