Opening by President David Wallechinsky In his opening speech, DW talked about the funeral of Tony Bijkerk and how important ISOH was to Tony. Even the cover of the invitation to his memorial service mentioned his function as Secretary­General. In his speech to the mourning community, DW talked about Tony‘s contributions to the Olympic Movement and his commitment to ISOH. Another topic we discussed is the storage of ISOH members from countries that have had little to do IOC President Thomas documents and donations. Various options were with promoting the study of Olympic history. Certainly Bach met members discussed, and it was decided to leave the archive in it is an advantage if a country has hosted the Olympic of the ISOH Executive Herisau with the Secretary­General until his office is Games.

You will also find the standings of the first three places in all events for men and women at the Olympic Games followed by several classifications which are listed either by the number of titles or medals by swimmer or National Federation. It should be noted that these standings only have an historical aim but no sport signification because the comparison between the achievements of swimmers of different generations is always unfair for several reasons: 1. The period of time. The Olympic Games were not organised in 1916, 1940 and 1944 2. The evolution of the programme.

  • Counter-Intelligence in a Command Economy
    Counter-Intelligence in a Command Economy Mark Harrison* Department of Economics and CAGE, University of Warwick Centre for Russian and East European Studies, University of Birmingham Hoover Institution on War, Revolution, and Peace, Stanford University Inga Zaksauskienė** Faculty of History, Vilnius University Abstract We provide the first thick description of the counter-intelligence function in a command economy of the Soviet type. Based on documentation from Soviet Lithuania, the paper considers the KGB (secret police) as a market regulator, commissioned to prevent the disclosure of secret government business and forestall the disruption of government plans. Where market regulation in open societies is commonly intended to improve market transparency, competition, and fair treatment of consumers and employees, KGB regulation was designed to enforce secrecy, monopoly, and discrimination. One consequence of KGB regulation of the labour market may have been adverse selection for talent. We argue that the Soviet economy was designed to minimize the costs.
