  • The Invisible Forces Weekly: Economics with a Broader View] (Cumulative 261-Present)
    [The Invisible Forces Weekly: Economics with a Broader View] (Cumulative 261-present) Welcome! This is the article list for the cumulative (261-present) mailings of The Invisible Forces Weekly. The dates given are typically publication dates, although that practice breaks down where magazines that are published monthly or weekly are concerned. In such cases I have preserved the temporal order when the article appeared but provided the publication date. Hopefully, this will not be confusing. The idea of the invisible forces stems from Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations (1776). Smith wrote about the unintended consequences of "the invisible hand." However, this idea was generalized by economist David Colander as "the invisible forces" (Microeconomics, 2nd ed. (1995), pp. 17-19). It is this broader view of economics that I wish to illustrate in the articles that follow. According to Colander, with some adaptation: the invisible hand refers to economic forces that influence human behavior the invisible foot refers to legal and political forces that influence human behavior the invisible handshake refers to social and historical forces that influence human behavior Simply put, the invisible hand, the invisible foot, and the invisible handshake comprise a system of forces that influence human behavior, in particular, the human behavior that gets reported in the media and is the object of this email. This behavior, of course, takes place in a physical environment, and influences the physical environment, so environmental matters will make their appearance, too. Caveat. Some of the links referenced may no longer be accessible, as some of them require subscriptions.

  • Abraham Lincoln in His Own Words an Intimate View of Our Greatest President
    Abraham Lincoln In His Own Words An intimate view of our greatest president More has been written about Abraham Lincoln than any other American, yet our view of him is dominated by a series of iconic images: the self-taught son of an illiterate farmer; the bearded man in the stovepipe hat; the savior of the Union; the Great Emancipator; the martyred leader. But what made Lincoln such a great man? His words are the key. His letters and manuscripts allow us to connect with history and discover Lincoln and his principles in his own words. From the draft of his famous “House Divided” speech to his private letter about the fall of Richmond, these documents encourage us to see Lincoln at pivotal moments struggling to prevent the dissolution of the country and pursuing his vision of a new birth of freedom. Selected Documents from the Gilder Lehrman Collection, with Sculpture from the Collections of the New-York Historical Society. Race for the Senate, 1858 By 1850, the extension of slavery into new territories won during the Mexican War of 1846–48 provided a testing ground for competing visions of America. The passage of the Fugitive Slave Law in 1850 and the Kansas-Nebraska Act in 1854 sparked a firestorm in Kansas and made slavery a central issue across the country. These events moved Lincoln to reenter political life and to speak out publicly against pro-slavery factions. The Supreme Court’s Dred Scott decision in 1857 ruled that no African American could be a U.S. citizen. It ignited jubilation in the South and fierce protests in the North, and marked the end of compromise between the opposing groups.

  • 2015-2016 Wisconsin Blue Book: Chapter 8
    STATISTICS: HISTORY 675 HIGHLIGHTS OF HISTORY IN WISCONSIN History — On May 29, 1848, Wisconsin became the 30th state in the Union, but the state’s written history dates back more than 300 years to the time when the French first encountered the diverse Native Americans who lived here. In 1634, the French explorer Jean Nicolet landed at Green Bay, reportedly becoming the first European to visit Wisconsin. The French ceded the area to Great Britain in 1763, and it became part of the United States in 1783. First organized under the Northwest Ordinance, the area was part of various territories until creation of the Wisconsin Territory in 1836. Since statehood, Wisconsin has been a wheat farming area, a lumbering frontier, and a preeminent dairy state. Tourism has grown in importance, and industry has concentrated in the eastern and southeastern part of the state. Politically, the state has enjoyed a reputation for honest, efficient government. It is known as the birthplace of the Republican Party and the home of Robert M. La Follette, Sr., founder of the progressive movement. Political Balance — After being primarily a one-party state for most of its existence, with the Republican and Progressive Parties dominating during portions of the state’s first century, Wisconsin has become a politically competitive state in recent decades. The Republicans gained majority control in both houses in the 1995 Legislature, an advantage they last held during the 1969 session. Since then, control of the senate has changed several times. In 2009, the Democrats gained control of both houses for the first time since 1993; both houses returned to Republican control in 2011.

  • Reluctant Polygamist ~~~~~~ Joseph Smith Jr
    Reluctant Polygamist ~~~~~~ Joseph Smith Jr. Meg Stout 2018 Joseph was killed in 1844, accused of treason and debauchery. Joseph’s wife, Emma, maintained at her death that Joseph was innocent, and that she had been his only wife. Joseph’s successor, Brigham Young, declared Joseph had taught plural marriage was crucial to salvation. Brigham’s followers and Emma’s descendants would honor Joseph’s memory, while believing entirely divergent versions of his history. Critics, meanwhile, maintained that Joseph had been an utter scoundrel. Stout explores the intrigue that would fundamentally divide those who claimed to know what Joseph Smith had taught and done regarding marriage. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Reluctant Polygamist is a remarkable example of investigative journalism, almost a murder mystery or spy thriller in the making… There are some very scary bad guys in this story—and Joseph is not one of them. —Jeff Lindsay, LDS FAQ: Mormon Answers, Mormanity Blog Reluctant Polygamist asks the reader to accept the complexity and ambiguity of LDS plural marriage, rather than going for a simplistic explanation. I think that’s a real service. —Gregory A. Prince, David O.

  • THOMAS CHARLES MUNGER Bar Association Section
    THOMAS CHARLES MUNGER Bar Association Section In the Bar Association Section of former issues of this law review will be found a unique collection of historical material relating to the Nebraska bench and bar in its earlier days. This issue we devote to memorials to two Nebraskans recently de­ ceased-Thomas C. Munger, lawyer and judge, and Henry H. Wilson, lawyer and law teacher. They were contemporaries and friends. We print a reproduction of the portrait of Judge Munger that hangs in the courtroom in which he presided so many years as judge and of the portrait of Henry H. Wilson presented by his former students to the law school he served from its foundation. The services and influence of these men extended far beyond court and school. We hazard the prediction that few men of their generation will have such a permanent affect upon the Nebraska bar and juris­ prudence. We know that few men have been more generally admired and respected by Nebraska lawyers. We believe that all Nebraska law­ yers will be glad to have these memorials made available to them and produced in such a form that they may be kept as permanent records. IN MEMORIAM HONORABLE THOMAS CHARLES MUNGER (1861-1941) Conducted by the United States District Court for the District of Nebraska, in the Lincoln Division, under the direction of a committee appointed by the court, composed of the following members of the bar: R.
