  • New York, 5 January 1946: in Ragged Clothes, but As Usual Wearing
    New York, 5 January 1946: In ragged clothes, but as usual wearing elegant white gloves, Paul Abraham steps on Madison avenue, positions himself on a socket in the central reserve of the roadway and starts to direct an imaginary orchestra. This last 'performance' would take the most successful composer of the early 1930s to psychiatry. The game is over... On this homepage you will read everything about the triumphs and defeats of this creator of immortal tunes. The biographical homepage of the operetta composer PAUL ABRAHAM (1892-1960) His life - His tunes - His influence by Klaus Waller (Translation: Nardina Alongi) From Apatin to Budapest Paul Abraham was born as Ábrahám Pál on 2 November 1892 in the provincial town of Apatin (in modern Serbia), which at that time belonged to the Austro-Hungarian empire of the Habsburgian monarchy. We know close to nothing about his childhood. It seems certain that his mother, a piano teacher, introduced him to the world of music - as well his father, a businessman, had influenced him with his profession - for both his interests, for music and for financial business, he tried to unite when he was a young man, and this would make his life rather adventurous. After attending the Swabian village school of Apatin and his father's early death, Abraham came to Budapest when he was still a child. A music professor in Apatin had heard him playing piano when he was seven and recommended to his mother to move to Budapest, where he promoted Abraham further. Budapest was at that time a culturally vivid urban centre with a great deal of ethnic German population.

  • Information Technologies for the Control of Money Laundering
    Information Technologies for the Control of Money Laundering September 1995 OTA-ITC-630 GPO stock #052-003-01436-0 Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Information Technologies for Control of Money Laundering, OTA-ITC-630 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, September 1995). oreword he key to control of international crime may depend on cutting off the flow of illegal profits to criminal organizations. It is esti- mated that $300 billion of “dirty money” may be laundered each year, its origin and ownership obscured as it passes through fi- nancial institutions and across national boundaries in an effort to hide and protect it from law enforcement authorities. Criminal organizations, like legitimate businesses, enjoy a swift and nearly risk-free conduit for moving money between countries—wire transfer systems. Illicit wire transfers are easily hidden among the 700,000 mostly legitimate wire transfers that occur daily in the United States, moving well over $2 trillion. OTA was asked by the Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations of the Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs to assess the proposed use of techniques derived from artificial intelligence research to monitor wire transfer traffic and recognize suspicious transfers. Fully automated computer screening of wire transfers was found to be virtually impossi- ble for technical reasons. However, OTA analysts developed and eval- uated a number of alternative configurations of technology that, com- bined with certain legal and institutional innovations, could greatly enhance the capability of law enforcement agencies to detect and prose- cute money launders seeking to exploit U.S. financial institutions and wire transfer systems.

  • 1 New York, 1946. Banished from Germany by the National Socialists
    New York, 1946. Banished from Germany by the national socialists, Paul Abraham stands in an lively street and starts to conduct an imaginary orchestra.* This last “concert” by the former most successful operetta composer of the whole world, called the “operetta king of Berlin”, marks the bitter end of his fruitless attempts of making a living in the “New World”. A little bit later he was admitted to the biggest insane asylum of the whole world. *There are not any eyewitnesses of this incident, but it became an iconographic symbol of the tragic fate of Paul Abraham and his exiled contemporaries. 1 The biographical homepage of the operetta composer PAUL ABRAHAM (1892-1960) The tragic king of operetta by Klaus Waller (Translation: Nardina Alongi 2014, update Louis Breitsohl 2016) From Apatin to Budapest Paul Abraham was born as Ábrahám Pál on 2 November 1892 in the provincial town of Apatin (in modern Serbia), which at that time belonged to the Austro-Hungarian empire of the Habsburgian monarchy.

  • From Chaos to Consilience: the Need for Science-Based Policy to Prevent Marine Degradation from Land-Based Activities
    FROM CHAOS TO CONSILIENCE: THE NEED FOR SCIENCE-BASED POLICY TO PREVENT MARINE DEGRADATION FROM LAND-BASED ACTIVITIES SHELLEY MARGOT LEXMOND B.Sc. (Acadia), LL.B. (Dalhousie) A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY FACULTY OF LAW NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE 2002 1 Acknowledgements I would like to thank my two supervisors, Douglas Johnston and Bob Beckman, for their guidance and advice in charting my course. I am especially indebted to Douglas, a “master mariner”, in my opinion, for his many hours in the wheelhouse, helping to navigate the numerous shoals and bearing with me through black water and calm seas, and the occasional storm. David VanderZwaag of Dalhousie Law School, Canada, and Mike Bewers formerly of GESAMP and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Canada, each undertook the dual role of mentor and friend, for which I am deeply grateful. To Mike, my express thanks for providing access to the international scientific community. My gratitude extends to the numerous scientists who gave so generously of their time. Individuals too numerous to list, from diverse disciplines, countries, and agencies are thanked for comments, insight, time, information, inspiration, and opening portholes that would have otherwise remained closed. In particular, Ambassador Hasjim Djalal of Indonesia and Ian Townsend-Gault of the University of British Columbia kindly provided a crow’s nest from which to observe the roiling currents of international law and science through invitations to attend many meetings of the Technical Working Groups on Legal Matters, Marine Scientific Research, and Marine Environmental Protection and the Annual Workshops, all of which were components of the CIDA-funded initiative, Managing Potential Conflicts in the South China Sea.

  • The Financial Reconstruction of Austria 1922 – 1926
    The First Bailout – The Financial Reconstruction of Austria 1922 – 1926 Submitted for the degree of Ph.D By Barbara Susan Warnock Birkbeck College University of London 2015 1 I declare that this thesis is all my own work ……………………………………………………………………………. 2 Abstract This thesis examines the League of Nations’ project for Austrian financial reconstruction 1922- 1926. By 1922, the First Austrian Republic (1918-1938) was experiencing enormous problems, including hyperinflation. Little confidence existed that the country could survive as a unified and independent entity. In this context, the Economic and Financial Organisation (EFO) of the League designed a financial reconstruction scheme for Austria. The scheme was the first such project carried out by an international institution and this thesis explores its genesis, attributes and impacts. This thesis argues that this programme came into existence less, as is sometimes argued, because of the work of idealistic internationalists at the League of Nations, and more because the governments, diplomats and officials of certain powers, particularly France, but also Britain and others, wished to see Austria survive because they regarded its continued existence to be an important part of upholding post-war European order, and furthering their interests and diplomatic strategies. Furthermore, the support of financial elites was crucial in successfully launching the scheme, and representatives of these groups were centrally involved in the design and implementation of the programme via the EFO’s Financial Committee. The programme reflected their beliefs about the proper operation of finance and economics, and introduced to Austria orthodox financial measures that had a mixed, in many ways negative, effect on the Austrian economy and on Austrian prospects for stability.
