  • 10. Interlude in Denmark (PDF)
    10 Interlude in Denmark In my early student days -- as I have mentioned in chapter 3 -- my friend Christiansen-Weniger and I won an election as German student representatives on the ticket by striking a mathematical funny bone: Christiansen-Weniger - von Hippel [Christiansen minus von Hippel]. In the meantime, "Krischan" had become a professor of agriculture and had been called to Ankara in that capacity. He was an "unblemished Aryan," still a German citizen, and his lovely wife, Luise, alias "Körnchen," also a youth-movement friend, came to visit us. She intended to fly to Warsaw, and I wanted to fly to Copenhagen via Danzig, in order to visit Olga, who was directing a training school for agricultural helpers in that neighborhood. We therefore decided to fly together from Istanbul. In those early years of aviation, this was a major undertaking. Istanbul did not yet have a real airport and our six-passenger plane, with semi-open cockpit, took off from a meadow at night with the headlights of carefully stationed cars outlining a runway. Before our departure, we received the reassuring news that the plane flying the reverse route had crashed in the Albanian mountains. Our flight proved glorious, however. We passed over the Balkans in semi-darkness. No light shone from the ground there because practically all of its settlements had then been wiped out in the Balkan Wars and World War I. At sunrise we reached the Carpathian mountains and flew along that stunning semi-circle separating Hungary from Poland. The air became turbulent and we had to throw up "par la fenêtre [out the window]." At noon we landed in Warsaw, where Luise left me.

  • Why Doesn't the United States Have a European-Style Welfare State?
    0332-04-Alesina 1/3/02 15:31 Page 187 ALBERTO ALESINA Harvard University EDWARD GLAESER Harvard University BRUCE SACERDOTE Dartmouth College Why Doesn’t the United States Have a European-Style Welfare State? EUROPEAN GOVERNMENTS REDISTRIBUTE income among their citizens on a much larger scale than does the U.S. government. European social pro- grams are more generous and reach a larger share of citizens. European tax systems are more progressive. European regulations designed to protect the poor are more intrusive. In this paper we try to understand why. The literature on the size of government is rich and varied. However, here we do not focus on the size of government as such, but rather on the redistributive side of government policies. Thus our goal is in one sense narrower than answering the question, “What explains the size of govern- ment?” since we focus on a single, but increasingly important, role of fis- cal policy. Yet in another sense our focus is broader, because redistributive policies go beyond the government budget—think, for instance, of labor market policies. We consider economic, political, and behavioral explanations for these differences between the United States and Europe. Economic explanations focus on the variance of income and the skewness of the income distribu- tion before taxes and transfers, the social costs of taxation, the volatility of income, and expected changes in income for the median voter. We con- clude that most of these theories cannot explain the observed differences. We are grateful to our discussants for very useful suggestions. We also thank William Easterly, Benjamin Friedman, Michael Mandler, Casey Mulligan, Roberto Perotti, Andrei Shleifer, Theda Skocpol, and a large number of conference participants for very useful com- ments.

  • Our County, Our Story; Portage County, Wisconsin
    Our County Our Story PORTAGE COUNTY WISCONSIN BY Malcolm Rosholt Charles M. White Memorial Public LibrarJ PORTAGE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS STEVENS POINT, \VISCONSIN 1959 Copyright, 1959, by the PORTAGE COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS PRINTED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AT WORZALLA PUBLISHING COMPANY STEVENS POINT, WISCONSIN FOREWORD With the approach of the first frost in Portage County the leaves begin to fall from the white birch and the poplar trees. Shortly the basswood turns yellow and the elm tree takes on a reddish hue. The real glory of autumn begins in October when the maples, as if blushing in modesty, turn to gold and crimson, and the entire forest around is aflame with color set off against deeper shades of evergreens and newly-planted Christmas trees. To me this is the most beautiful season of the year. But it is not of her beauty only that I write, but of her colorful past, for Portage County is already rich in history and legend. And I share, in part, at least, the conviction of Margaret Fuller who wrote more than a century ago that "not one seed from the past" should be lost. Some may wonder why I include the names listed in the first tax rolls. It is part of my purpose to anchor these names in our history because, if for no other reas­ on, they were here first and there can never be another first. The spellings of names and places follow the spellings in the documents as far as legibility permits. Some no doubt are incorrect in the original entry, but the major­ ity were probably correct and since have changed, which makes the original entry a matter of historic significance.

  • “Miss Europe” and “Miss Romania” 1929: Beauty Pageants Between Aesthetic Aspirations and National Propaganda
    RJHIS 4 (3) 2017 Propaganda and Manipulation in History. An Interdisciplinary Approach “Miss Europe” and “Miss Romania” 1929: Beauty Pageants Between Aesthetic Aspirations and National Propaganda Vlad Mihăilă* Abstract: This article aims to expose the connections between feminine beauty, nationalism, and political propaganda that have characterized modern beauty pageants since their creation in the 1920s. By surveying the ways in which gender and national identity were socially and culturally constructed through the “Miss Europe” and “Miss Romania” competitions, it will be argued that beauty pageants played an important role in affirming national unity, cohesion, and solidarity as well as in bringing diplomatic tensions to the fore of Romanian public debates. These debates were triggered in February 1929 when the first title of the most beautiful woman in Europe was awarded to “Miss Hungary”. The Romanian weekly magazine “Realitatea Ilustrată” [“Illustrated Reality”], one of the most read publications in the 1920s and 1930s, covered this news extensively, investing the European competition with a patriotic meaning and seeing it as the battleground for a symbolic encounter between the Romanian and Hungarian nations. Thus, the European pageant translated political, ethnical, and propagandistic discourses in terms of feminine beauty and identity. Keywords: beauty pageants, feminine beauty, gender, identity, nationalism * Vlad Mihăilă has a Ph. D. in History, at the Doctoral School of History, University of Bucharest (November 2017). Thesis title: `"Miss Romania (1929-1933). The Beauty Pageants Organized by "Universul", "Ilustrațiunea Română" și "Realitatea Ilustrată"`. Main areas of interest: cultural and social history, gender and cultural identity, history of mass- media and advertising, microshistory, history of the body, corporal representations, and sexuality.

Orillia, on, Canada l3v 0b9 / Hamilton, on l8s 4l6 [email protected] Bertrand Russell’s Scandinavian lecture tour in October 1935 has been largely undocumented because of the longstanding embargo on the tour correspond- ence Russell exchanged with Marjorie (“Peter”) Spence, his lover and future third wife. These archival restrictions ended in 2009, and this paper presents annotated transcriptions of twenty letters sent by Russell to Peter during his trip to Denmark, Sweden, and Norway. The tour allowed Russell to test early ver- sions of two important papers in his return to philosophy in the mid-1930s, and his meetings with Niels Bohr and Werner Heisenberg in Copenhagen signiW- cantly enhanced his understanding of quantum mechanics. Additionally, these letters demonstrate the impact of the tour on Russell’s political thought and his evolving views on fascism and paciWsm, and they provide the Wrst intimate picture of Russell’s complex relationship with Peter. yhave been lately travelling in Denmark, Sweden, and Norway”, yBertrand Russell informed readers of the Sunday Referee in late “I yOctober 1935, and “I do not think that any unprejudiced person can fail to be struck by the very high level of general well-being in these countries.”1 Russell’s brief account of his travels appearing in this 1 “In Lands Where Slums and Wars Are Unknown”, The Sunday Referee, 27 Oct. 1935, p. 18; Papers 21: 60. russell: the Journal of Bertrand Russell Studies n.s.
