  • Legal Regulations of Transfer Pricing in Poland
    LEGAL REGULATIONS OF TRANSFER PRICING IN POLAND ALEKSANDRA SULIK-GÓRECKA [email protected] Brno, June 2019 Aim of presentation . to present legal regulations concerning transfer pricing in Poland in 2019, . to compare them with previously applicable regulations: regulations in force until 2016, regulations in force in 2017-2018 Due to the right to control taxes up to 5 years back, groups capital in Poland must adapt to three different legal orders History . Poland became a member of the OECD on November 22, 1996 . The first provision on transfer prices was introduced into the Polish legal order in 1935 by amending the Law on state income tax . Post-war regulations to a certain extent regulated the issue of international trade and leveled the impact of differences in the tax systems of individual countries on the tax base of Polish enterprises. The income tax decree of 1946 provided for the possibility of estimating the taxpayer's income in a situation when one of the related parties of the transaction benefited from specific tax reliefs. Two years later, national entities were also subject to regulations limiting the transfer of income . Later, due to the functioning of the centrally controlled economy, the regulation of transfer prices lost their importance. Interest in this issue returned in the early 90s of the twentieth century along with the beginning of the market economy. The Law on Corporate Income Tax, in force since February 15, 1992, includes a provision regulating the issue of links between business entities . Since 1996, work has begun to adapt Polish law to international regulations in the field of transfer pricing.

  • Album of the Week: Deerhoof's La Isla Bonita
    Album Of The Week: Deerhoof’s La Isla Bonita Believe it or not, there are a few bands that have been around for a while that I have yet to take a dive into. One of those bands are San Francisco noise pop punk act Deerhoof, and their new album La Isla Bonita has shown me exactly what I’ve been missing. One of those bands that have managed to stick around since the mid-90s, the variety of sounds and dimensions in each track off of the album is jaw dropping. One moment it sounds like a psychedelic j- pop song and then unpredictably these crunchy rigid guitars come in and obliterate everything. So many influences and styles being showcased in one sound, Deerhoof’s new release is simply amazing with its stunning originality. The album was produced by former music journalist & ex-Mr. Dream drummer Nick Sylvester. For a band that has gained acclaim for being extremely DIY for self-producing their previous albums and self- managing, at first glance it could sound like a risk to make a departure from the norm with a different producer. Sylvester excels with excellent quality, and I also can’t get enough of Greg Saunier’s skills on drums. For all of this polish you might be thinking of, don’t fret. There are a good amount of ear- splitting riff rockers on La Isla Bonita as well. It’s November, which means it’s getting cold and one of your friends is already complaining about it. One thing you shouldn’t complain about are the top tracks off of my Album Of The Week.

  • Propaganda, Cinema and the American Character in World War Ii Theodore Kornweibel, Jr
    humphrey bogart's Sahara propaganda, cinema and the american character in world war ii theodore kornweibel, jr. How and why a people responds affirmatively to momentous events in the life of its nation is an intriguing question for the social historian. Part of the answer may be found in the degree to which a populace can connect such events to traditional (and often idealistic) themes in its culture, themes which have had wide currency and restatement. This kind of identification can be seen particularly in wartime; twice in this century large segments of the American population rallied around the call to preserve democracy under the guise of fighting a "war to end all wars" and another to preserve the "four freedoms." But popular perceptions of these global conflicts were not without both deliberate and unconscious manipulation in many areas of the culture, including commercial motion pictures. Hollywood produced hundreds of feature films during World War II which depicted facets of that conflict on the domestic homefront, the soil of friendly Allies and far-flung battlefields. Many of the films showed no more than a crude addition of the war theme to plots that would have been filmed anyway in peacetime, such as gangster stories and musical comedies. But other movies reached a deeper level in subtly linking the war to American traditions and ideals. Sahara,1 Columbia Pictures' biggest money-maker in 1943, starring Humphrey Bogart in a finely understated performance, is such a motion picture. Students of American culture will find Sahara and its never-filmed predecessor script, "Trans-Sahara," artifacts especially useful in ex­ amining two phenomena: the process of government pressure on 0026-3079/81/2201-0005S01.50/0 5 movie studios to ensure that the "approved" war.

    Chapter I: Introduction Throughout history, there have been sporadic pockets or concentrations of intense intellectual activity around the globe. From Athens to Vienna, cities have often been associated with the historical eras in which they excelled. For example, the 5th century BC dramatists in Greece such as Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides helped to make Athens a leader in artistic creation during its prime. Vienna, the European capital of the music world during the 18th century, was a center of artistic creativity that included composers such as Mozart and Haydn. During the 1920s, the Weimar Republic held the distinction of being the epicenter of human thought and art, with Berlin firmly at the heart of this activity. A few of the familiar names connected to this era in German history are Thomas Mann, Albert Einstein, Theodor Adorno, Wassily Kandinsky, Lyonel Feininger, Fritz Lang, and F.W. Murnau. In addition to these individuals, many artistic and intellectual schools such as German Expressionism, the Frankfurt School, the Bauhaus, and “Der Sturm” are associated with the Weimar Republic. Socially, the period represents an equally intense atmosphere. The Weimar Republic thrived on entertainment, clubs, and night-life in general. Berlin was at the forefront of urban entertainment in Germany, rivaling the other major cities of the Western world. The nightscape of Berlin was marked by lighted signs advertising small cabaret clubs and lavish musicals. However, the streets were also lined with disabled war veterans, prostitutes, and businessmen alike, reflecting an increase of prostitution, debauchery and crime of which all are in some way connected to the unbelievable inflation that permeated all layers of social, cultural and political life in Weimar Germany during the Republic’s first few years.

  • PROPAGANDA FILMS DURING the THIRD REICH by ASHLEY
    PROPAGANDA FILMS DURING THE THIRD REICH by ASHLEY SCHRENK (Under the Direction of Christine Haase) ABSTRACT Films produced during the Third Reich generally fall into two categories: blatant propaganda films, which this paper terms hard-core propaganda films, or subtler, soft- core propaganda films. The first category frequently features vilification of Jews, as well as glorification of the German Volk, Heimat and of Hitler. Third Reich hard-core propaganda films portray Aryan Germans in opposition to other races, resulting in the extreme exclusion of the Other. The soft-core propaganda films are a toned down version of the hard-core propaganda films. This thesis proposes an inverse relationship between the level of inherent inconsistencies and contradictions within Third Reich films and the categorization of a film as hard-core propaganda. The greater the inconsistencies in relation to Nazi ideology, the more a film becomes soft-core propaganda and vice versa. A variety of hard and soft-core propaganda films are analyzed, and the overall effectiveness of such propaganda is examined. INDEX WORDS: Third Reich, Propaganda Ministry, Nazi film, Nazi cinema, Goebbels, Riefenstahl, Hitler, Nazi propaganda, Fascism, Fascist aesthetics, Nazi popular film, Triumph des Willens, Jud Süß, Der ewige Jude, Zu neuen Ufern, Die große Liebe, Die goldene Stadt PROPAGANDA FILMS DURING THE THIRD REICH by ASHLEY SCHRENK B.A., The University of Georgia, 2004 B.B.A., The University of Georgia, 2004 A thesis Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The University

Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Carole Blair Ken Hillis Chris Lundberg Todd Ochoa Sarah Sharma © 2015 Calum Lister Matheson ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Calum Lister Matheson: Desired Ground Zeroes: Nuclear Imagination and the Death Drive (Under the direction of Chris Lundberg and Sarah Sharma) A wide variety of cultural artefacts related to nuclear warfare are examined to highlight continuity in the sublime’s mix of horror and fascination. Schemes to use nuclear explosions for peaceful purposes embody the godlike structural positions of the Bomb for Americans in the early Cold War. Efforts to mediate the Real of the Bomb include nuclear simulations used in wargames and their civilian offshoots in videogames and other media. Control over absence is examined through the spatial distribution of populations that would be sacrificed in a nuclear war and appeals to overarching rationality to justify urban inequality. Control over presence manifests in survivalism, from Cold War shelter construction to contemporary “doomsday prepping” and survivalist novels. The longstanding cultural ambivalence towards nuclear war, coupled with the manifest desire to experience the Real, has implications for nuclear activist strategies that rely on democratically-engaged publics to resist nuclear violence once the “truth” is made clear.
