  • Is the Greek Crisis One of Supply Or Demand?
    YANNIS M. IOANNIDES Tufts University CHRISTOPHER A. PISSARIDES London School of Economics Is the Greek Crisis One of Supply or Demand? ABSTRACT Greece’s “supply” problems have been present since its acces- sion to the European Union in 1981; the “demand” problems caused by austerity and wage cuts have compounded the structural problems. This paper discusses the severity of the demand contraction, examines product market reforms, many of which have not been implemented, and their potential impact on com- petitiveness and the economy, and labor market reforms, many of which have been implemented but due to their timing have contributed to the collapse of demand. The paper argues in favor of eurozone-wide policies that would help Greece recover and of linking reforms with debt relief. reece joined the European Union (EU) in 1981 largely on politi- Gcal grounds to protect democracy after the malfunctioning political regimes that followed the civil war in 1949 and the disastrous military dictatorship of the years 1967–74. Not much attention was paid to the economy and its ability to withstand competition from economically more advanced European nations. A similar blind eye was turned to the economy when the country applied for membership in the euro area in 1999, becom- ing a full member in 2001. It is now blatantly obvious that the country was not in a position to compete and prosper in the European Union’s single market or in the euro area. A myriad of restrictions on free trade had been introduced piecemeal after 1949, with the pretext of protecting those who fought for democracy.

  • The Cimbri of Denmark, the Norse and Danish Vikings, and Y-DNA Haplogroup R-S28/U152 - (Hypothesis A)
    The Cimbri of Denmark, the Norse and Danish Vikings, and Y-DNA Haplogroup R-S28/U152 - (Hypothesis A) David K. Faux The goal of the present work is to assemble widely scattered facts to accurately record the story of one of Europe’s most enigmatic people of the early historic era – the Cimbri. To meet this goal, the present study will trace the antecedents and descendants of the Cimbri, who reside or resided in the northern part of the Jutland Peninsula, in what is today known as the County of Himmerland, Denmark. It is likely that the name Cimbri came to represent the peoples of the Cimbric Peninsula and nearby islands, now called Jutland, Fyn and so on. Very early (3rd Century BC) Greek sources also make note of the Teutones, a tribe closely associated with the Cimbri, however their specific place of residence is not precisely located. It is not until the 1st Century AD that Roman commentators describe other tribes residing within this geographical area. At some point before 500 AD, there is no further mention of the Cimbri or Teutones in any source, and the Cimbric Cheronese (Peninsula) is then called Jutland. As we shall see, problems in accomplishing this task are somewhat daunting. For example, there are inconsistencies in datasources, and highly conflicting viewpoints expressed by those interpreting the data. These difficulties can be addressed by a careful sifting of diverse material that has come to light largely due to the storehouse of primary source information accessed by the power of the Internet. Historical, archaeological and genetic data will be integrated to lift the veil that has to date obscured the story of the Cimbri, or Cimbrian, peoples.

  • The Rise of Catholicism. Its Struggle with Arianism for Supremacy. an Ideological Warfare
    But what is the "image to the beast"? and how is it to be formed? The image is made by the two-horned beast, and is an image to the beast. It is also called an image of the beast. Then to learn what the image is like and how it is to be formed we must study the characteristics of the beast itself—the papacy. “ {GC 443.1} "The beast" mentioned in this message, whose worship is enforced by the two-horned beast, is the first, or leopardlike beast of Revelation 13--the papacy. The "image to the beast" represents that form of apostate Protestantism which will be developed when the Protestant churches shall seek the aid of the civil power for the enforcement of their dogmas. The "mark of the beast" still remains to be defined. {GC 445.2} The Rise of Catholicism. Its struggle with Arianism for supremacy. An Ideological warfare. The Christian world was torn asunder by theological factions. Alexandria, the center of all philosophical study, was also the center of theological activity. Here is where the Greek influence was most forcibly felt. Athanasius, the leader of one faction, was archdeacon, and afterward bishop of Alexandria, and his opponent, Arius, was presbyter in the same city. {1901 SNH, SDP 229.1} Paganism and Christianity met on the battlefield when Constantine contended for the throne of Rome; paganism and Christianity met in more deadly conflict in Alexandria, where Christian and pagan schools stood side by side. Here it was that such men as Origen and Clement, recognized Fathers of the church, adopted the philosophy of the Greeks, and applied to the study of the Bible the same methods which were common in the study of Homer and other Greek writers.

    From Nomads to Conquerors. A Study of Networks, Violence, and the Social Powers of Attila and the Huns in Late Antiquity. Master Thesis Christian F. Vegard The Institute for Human Studies University of Bergen May 2020 Page !1 of !119 «Attila was lord over all the Huns and almost the sole earthly ruler of all the tribes of Scythia; a man marvellous for his glorious fame among all nations.» (Getica, XXXIV, 178) Page !2 of !119 Sammendrag. I denne oppgaven har jeg studert Hunerne og deres undersåtter i lys av de forskjellige nettverkene av sosial makt som oppstod da Huner-Imperiet hadde sin storhetstid i en kort, men hektisk periode i sen-antikken. Hunernes forhold til Romerne har fått mye oppmerksomhet, men få ressurser har blitt dedikert til undersåttene deres og de sosiale nettverkene som oppstod mellom de og Hunerne. Derfor er denne oppgaven en original studie av et felt om Hunerne som ikke har blitt utført før. Jeg har brukt Max Weber sine teorier om legitime politiske styresystemer, som er inndelt i Legal Autoritet, Tradisjonell Autoritet, og Karismatisk Autoritet. Den siste er hovedfokuset, men det har og vist seg at Tradisjonell Autoritet var gjeldende. Teoriene om vold i nettverk og samfunn av Douglass North har fungert som en bro mellom Max Weber og Michael Mann. I oppgaven har jeg hovedsakelig brukt de sosiale teoriene til Michael Mann, der jeg har analysert Hunerne og undersåttene gjennom IEMP-modellen hans. Dermed er oppgaven delt inn i fire kapitler, med en konklusjon for hvert av de: I Ideologi har jeg først og fremst sett på felles religion og oppførsel, men også dedikert ressurser til studie av gruppe-identitet og etnisitet.
