  • President Jean-Claude Juncker Wednesday, 29 June 2016 European Commission Rue De La Loi 200 1049 Brussels Belgium
    President Jean-Claude Juncker Wednesday, 29 June 2016 European Commission Rue de la Loi 200 1049 Brussels Belgium Re. Securing a sustainable future for the European music sector Dear President Juncker, As recording artists and songwriters from across Europe and artists who regularly perform in Europe, we believe passionately in the value of music. Music is fundamental to Europe’s culture. It enriches people’s lives and contributes significantly to our economies. This is a pivotal moment for music. Consumption is exploding. Fans are listening to more music than ever before. Consumers have unprecedented opportunities to access the music they love, whenever and wherever they want to do so. But the future is jeopardised by a substantial “value gap” caused by user upload services such as Google’s YouTube that are unfairly siphoning value away from the music community and its artists and songwriters. This situation is not just harming today’s recording artists and songwriters. It threatens the survival of the next generation of creators too, and the viability and the diversity of their work. The value gap undermines the rights and revenues of those who create, invest in and own music, and distorts the market place. This is because, while music consumption is at record highs, user upload services are misusing “safe harbour” exemptions. These protections were put in place two decades ago to help develop nascent digital start-ups, but today are being misapplied to corporations that distribute and monetise our works. Right now there is a unique opportunity for Europe’s leaders to address the value gap.

    Belvedere_2019_03_kiado.qxd 2020.01.30. 13:20 Page 25 SCHVÉD BRIGITTA KINGA [email protected] PhD-hallgató (PTE BTK Interdiszciplináris Doktori Iskola, Középkori és Koraújkori Doktori Program) A 17. századi svéd gyarmatosítás egy rövid epizódja A Svéd Afrika Társaság (Svenska Afrikakompaniet) és a nyugat-afrikai svéd gyarmatosítás (1649–1663) A brief episode of Swedish colonialism in the 17th century The Swedish Africa Company (Svenska Afrikakompaniet) and the Swedish colonization in West Africa (1649–1663) ABSTRACT The possibility of Swedish colonialism emerged for the first time during the reign of Gustav II Adolph of Sweden (1611–1632), when he issued a decree on the policy of Swedish colonization outside Europe in 1625. The Kingdom of Sweden was one of the most spectacularly expanding states in Europe in the 17th century, and the unmatched success of Swedish dynasticism was primarily due to their expansive foreign policy. The establishment of the Swedish colonization of the era – the founding of New Sweden in North America and the Swedish Gold Coast in West Africa – composed important foreground to the Swedish expansion. It is essential to explore the Dutch cultural transfer and intermediation in order to analyze the phenomenon of Swedish colonization, as the political and economic relations with The Hague (Staten-Generaal) and the activity of Dutch agents, diplomats, artists, architects, traders and entrepreneurs produced important background for the Kingdom of Sweden’s ambitions in the 17th century. The present study summarizes the Swedish colonization in North America and examines the activities of the Swedish Africa Company (Svenska Afrikakompaniet) from 1648–1649 to 1663, from the point of view of the Swedish–Dutch cultural transfers of the era, due to the Dutch affiliates involved in the operation of the company.

    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School Department of Kinesiology DUKE KAHANAMOKU-TWENTIETH CENTURY HAWAIIAN MONARCH: THE VALUES AND CONTRIBUTIONS TO HAWAIIAN CULTURE FROM HAWAI`I’S SPORTING LEGEND A Thesis in Kinesiology by James D. Nendel © 2006 James D. Nendel Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2006 The thesis of James D. Nendel was reviewed and approved* by the following: Mark S. Dyreson Associate Professor of Kinesiology Thesis Advisor Chair of Committee R. Scott Kretchmar Professor of Kinesiology Douglas R. Anderson Professor of Philosophy James G. Thompson Professor of Kinesiology John Challis Graduate Program Director ... Department of Kinesiology Graduate Program Director *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii Abstract On August 24, 2002, the United States Postal Service issued a commemorative stamp in honor of the man whom Robert Rider, Chairman of the Postal Service Board of Governors, called “a hero in every sense of the word.”1 The stamp honored Duke Kahanamoku, a man regarded with the reverence bestowed upon a legendary figure in his home State of Hawai`i, yet relatively unknown on the United States mainland. Bishop Museum archivist Desoto Brown described Kahanamoku as “the most famous Hawaiian person who has ever been, in terms of him being 100 percent ethnically Hawaiian.”2 Known as the “Hawaiian fish,” Kahanamoku is indisputably one of the greatest heroes that the Hawaiian Islands have ever produced. Born in 1890 Duke Paoa Kahinu Makoe Hulikohoa Kahanamoku3 died in 1968. In his lifetime, Hawai’i moved from an independent monarchy to full statehood in the United States of America.
