  • Colonial Failure in the Anglo-North Atlantic World, 1570-1640 (2015)
    FINDLEY JR, JAMES WALTER, Ph.D. “Went to Build Castles in the Aire:” Colonial Failure in the Anglo-North Atlantic World, 1570-1640 (2015). Directed by Dr. Phyllis Whitman Hunter. 266pp. This study examines the early phases of Anglo-North American colonization from 1570 to 1640 by employing the lenses of imagination and failure. I argue that English colonial projectors envisioned a North America that existed primarily in their minds – a place filled with marketable and profitable commodities waiting to be extracted. I historicize the imagined profitability of commodities like fish and sassafras, and use the extreme example of the unicorn to highlight and contextualize the unlimited potential that America held in the minds of early-modern projectors. My research on colonial failure encompasses the failure of not just physical colonies, but also the failure to pursue profitable commodities, and the failure to develop successful theories of colonization. After roughly seventy years of experience in America, Anglo projectors reevaluated their modus operandi by studying and drawing lessons from past colonial failure. Projectors learned slowly and marginally, and in some cases, did not seem to learn anything at all. However, the lack of learning the right lessons did not diminish the importance of this early phase of colonization. By exploring the variety, impracticability, and failure of plans for early settlement, this study investigates the persistent search for usefulness of America by Anglo colonial projectors in the face of high rate of

Some would say that it was the first multi-divisional or multinational corporation in history. It was the largest merchant corporation in the world throughout much of its 250+ years of existence. It had a monopoly over England’s trade with Asia, played a significant role in financing the British State, and eventually became the ruler of the Indian sub- continent. The EIC was chartered on a symbolic date: December 31st 1600. It predated by almost a century the formation of an effective market in stocks in Britain which began to pick up as a market place for government bonds after the Glorious Revolution of 1688 and only became an active market in corporate shares in the 18th century.

The transition... https://doi.org/10.3926/hdbr.196 Technological change, opening and internationalization of Spanish telecommunications. The transition to the third generation of mobile telephony Ángel Amado Calvo Calvo Professor Emeritus in the College of Economics and Business at the University of Barcelona. Spain. ORCID: 0000-0002-1370-9970. [email protected] Received: December, 2017. Accepted: December, 2018 Published: June, 2019. Abstract This article explores from a multidisciplinary and transnational historical approach the impact of technological change on the structure of the telephone sector, the fruit of advances in microelectronics and information technology. This problem has been studied in Spain basically by regulatory specialists, on the one hand, and technologists, on the other. We lack a more transversal analysis that puts into play the various elements that intervene. This article is intended to cover this gap, based on unpublished primary sources –primarily from Telefónica– as well as in other documents of diverse origin. Specifically, it focuses on the role played by Spain and the historic telephone company (Telefónica) in the transition to the third generation of mobile telephony (Universal Mobile Telecommunications System, UMTS) and gives prominence to the national state, to the supranational bodies –EU and International Telecommunication Union (ITU) and companies. Keywords Mobile telephony, Universal Mobile Telecommunications System, Telefónica, licenses, operator debt, internationalization. How to cite this article Calvo, Á. A. (2019).

DEVELOPMENT OF THE AMERICAN LAW OF CORPORATIONS TO 1832 Douglas Arner* HIS article began life almost ten years ago as an essay for Profes- sor Joe McKnight's American Legal History course at SMU. De- spite the topic not being one of his major interests, Prof. McKnight very generously provided guidance, sources from his collection of rare books, and comments on successive drafts, both while the author was a student and after. In addition to his own time and expertise, Prof. MC Knight allowed the author far more time than he really deserved in which to complete the initial work. It is therefore very appropriate that this piece be included in a tribute to Prof. McKnight, as it clearly demon- strates the effect that he has had on the career and scholarship of those who have known him and studied under his direction. Further, it illus- trates a significant aspect of legal history which the author has come to appreciate: the fact that it changes
