We do not fully understand how institutional factors shaped them or what the numbers themselves meant to the researchers.

ANDERSON HANDELSHOCHSCHULE, VARNA, BULGARIA ACCORDING to a report in the June number of the Journal of fi the American Statistical Association, Professor Warren M. Persons made the following statement at a dinner meeting of the American Statistical Association, held at the Aldine Club, New York City, February 13, 1930: "Statisticians may be divided into two broad classes. The first class, consisting of men like Oscar Anderson and Arne Fisher, are funda­ mentalists. The fundamentalists believe in a trinity: mathematics, proba­ bility, correlation. They are more interested in nice mathematical processes than in an examination of premises.~ They believe in absolutes. Their point of view is mechanistic. The second class, consisting of such men as Bowley, Keynes, Allyn Young, and E. B. Wilson, are skeptics. The skep­ tics include among their number many of the greatest mathematical statisti­ cians. They conceive mathematical statistics to be similar to mathematical physics in which, to obtain realistic results, premises must be subjected to the closest scrutiny. They value mathematics as an instrument, but they are not hypnotized by mathematical symbols and they do not stand in awe of the tool they use. They do not believe in iron clad laws or mechanistic interpretations in economics. They suspect, for instance, the validity of correlation coefficients derived from economic data by involved processes.

Bordo and Harold James NBER Working Paper No. 8545 October 2001 JEL No. E22, B31, F33 ABSTRACT From the perspective of the late 1930s and 1940s the dominant view was that the inter-war currency experience was a financial disaster. The view is perfectly encapsulated in the League of Nations' publication The Inter-war Currency Experience, the bulk of which was written by Ragnar Nurkse and published in 1944. It was also the view behind the Keynes and White plans for international monetary reform, which culminated in the Bretton Woods conference and the establishment of the adjustable peg par value system buttressed by capital controls. An alternative view to Nurkse was posited by Gottfried Haberler in Prosperity and Depression, also commissioned by the League of Nations and published in 1937.

  • Bulgarian Economic Thought Since 1989: a Personal Perspective＊
    SERIES: THE HISTORY OF ECONOMIC THOUGHT IN TRANSITIONAL COUNTRIES〈 3〉 Bulgarian Economic Thought since 1989: A Personal Perspective＊ Nikolay Nenovsky Abstract: The profundity and timing of the collapse of the socialist economies took the econo- mists on both sides of the Iron Curtain by surprise. There were no theories that could explain or analyze the nature of such systemic social events and processes. The sovi- et-style Marxist political economy, neoclassical theory, and Keynesian interpretations were unable to anticipate, explain, or offer solutions to the real problems. This paper, explores the intellectual reactions of the Bulgarian economic commu- nity to the collapse of the planned economy and to the practical and theoretical chal- lenges of the post-communist period. The following are the three primary objectives of this study: First is a methodological objective, i.e., for explaining the dissemination of economic knowledge, determining its channels, as well as explaining the basic transmission mechanisms of economic theory in Bulgaria after the disintegration of the socialist bloc. Second is a purely informational objective, i.e., to present the major topics and issues studied during the period 1989-2009 and the findings of the econo- mists working on them. Finally, the third objective and parallel task is to theoretically interpret the development, characteristics, and specificities of the Bulgarian economic thought during that period. The main conclusion of this study is that although a few interesting studies re- garding the Bulgarian economic science have been published, they fail to offer inde- pendent and original ideas. The Bulgarian economic perspectives closely follow the trends of western economic science, which itself is currently at crossroads and is en- countering numerous challenges.

Grazie a questo studioso di formazione accademica, le ricerche etnologiche sammarinesi imboccano la strada del rigore scientifico. La raccolta effettuata dall’Anderson, con la collaborazione degli alunni della scuola elementare e dei loro insegnanti, è costituita da 118 testi in dialetto con relativa traduzione o in lingua italiana locale. La sezione più rappresentata è quella delle fiabe di magia, seguita da favole di animali e da altre novelle. Qui si riproducono alcune di quelle novelline sammarinesi più per il gustoso variare delle tonalità dialettali che per il contenuto narrativo, che ripete in genere schemi consueti. *Novelline popolari sammarinesi / pubblicate ed annotate da Walter Anderson. - Ripr. anast. - Torino : Bottega d'Erasmo, 1960. - 1 v. ; 24 cm. *************** Dal proemio “[…]Nel ricordare i nomi delle gentili maestre Serena Porcellini Pancotti (Chiesanuova), Tilde Saglione (S.

Analysis of the pre-1989 situation The spectrum of Marxism-Leninism In the period 1948-1989, Marxism-Leninism was not only the official but also the only allowed basis and framework for economic science, research, and the training of economics students at Bulgarian institutions of higher education. In the period 1944-48, along with the changes in political life characterized by the Communist Party’s complete takeover of power, Marxist-Leninist ideology was completely imposed in economic science and education. University lecturers whose views differed from the official ideology were dismissed from work – retired or fired. Marxism-Leninism dominated economic science completely throughout the entire Communist period of the country’s history. There were hardly any differences within the paradigm, with two exceptions: the problems of the market and the market character of socialism were posed and discussed at the beginning and at the end of the period.

Project web site: http://www.probabilityandfinance.com Abstract April 25, 2003, marked the 100th anniversary of the birth of Andrei Nikolaevich Kolmogorov, the twentieth century’s foremost contributor to the mathematical and philosophical foundations of probability. The year 2003 was also the 70th anniversary of the publication of Kolmogorov’s Grundbegriffe der Wahrschein- lichkeitsrechnung. Kolmogorov’s Grundbegriffe put probability’s modern mathematical formal- ism in place. It also provided a philosophy of probabilityan explanation of how the formalism can be connected to the world of experience.

Of minute precision No person will deny that the highest degree of attainable accuracy is an object to be desired, and it is generally found that the last advan- ces toward precision require a greater devotion of time, labour and expense than those which precede them. The first steps in the path of discovery and the first approximate measures are those which add most to the existing knowledge of mankind.

  • The Rockefeller Foundation Fellows in Social Sciences: Transnational Networks and Construction of Disciplines— the Example of East Central Europe
    The Rockefeller Foundation Fellows in Social Sciences: Transnational Networks and Construction of Disciplines— The Example of East Central Europe By Justine Faure Associate Professor, Institut d’études politiques (Institute of Political Studies) Strasbourg University France [email protected] © 2012 by Justine Faure During my research at the Rockefeller Archive Center (RAC), most of my time was devoted to the collective research project, “The Rockefeller Foundation fellows in the Social Sciences (1924-1970): Transnational Networks, Construction of Disciplines and Policy Making in the Age of Globalization,” coordinated by Ludovic Tournès and Michael Werner. This program aims at analyzing the role of the Rockefeller Foundation (RF) in the shaping of the social sciences in the world between the 1920s and 1970s, especially through its fellowship program. It is based on a study of fellows, the goal of which is to reconstruct their careers and trajectories before, during and after their fellowships. The worldwide geographical scope of the project gives the opportunity to go beyond national borders and to draw a global map of the construction and development of transnational networks of social scientists in which the RF played a prominent role. In following the fellows’ careers, we can also study the way the social sciences were used, both at the national and international levels, and as intellectual tools in the elaboration of public policies, especially through the channel of expertise. This project fits into the growing field of transnational history applying its methods to the intellectual and institutional history of fellows, who have been largely neglected by historians of philanthropy, since many earlier studies have focused on grants given to institutions.
