They also need to develop strong concentration power in order to attain good grades and excel in studies. The term was coined by French philosopher Voltaire. A key component to making sense of all of this is to simply recognize that all these issues in social evolution merely serve to support the suggestion that how one considers the nature of history will impact the interpretation and conclusions drawn about history.

Simply, cultural history records and interprets various past events involving human beings like literature, sport, and entertainment and much more. By uncovering forgotten or neglected philosophical job descriptions, the book reveals that philosophy is a universal activity, much broader—and more gender inclusive—than we normally think today. Many ancient cultures held mythical and theological concepts of history and of time that were not linear. His account itself shows that this is possible even if we are con- fined to our own time and place. Le Tour de France par deux enfants , for example, was the French Third Republic 's classic textbook for elementary school: it described the story of two French children who, following the German annexation of the Alsace-Lorraine region in , go on a tour de France during which they become aware of France's diversity and the existence of the various patois.

I wish more books in philosophy were as generous as this one is in its desire to hold things open and in its willingness genuinely to listen to multiple voices. Political History 2. History itself, which was traditionally the sovereign's science, the legend of his glorious feats and monument building, ultimately became the discourse of the people, thus a political stake. Male Female Please select your gender. In Great Britain, this historico-political discourse was used by the bourgeoisie, the people and the aristocracy as a means of struggle against the monarchy—cf. Kyoto School Objectivism Postcritique Russian cosmism more Author s : Justin E. Princeton University Press. One prominent manifestation of this analysis is the idea that "history is written by the victors". Moreover, discourse is not the simple ideological and mirror reflexion of an economic infrastructure , but is a product and the battlefield of multiples forces—which may not be reduced to the simple dualist contradiction of two energies. Wolfgang Schivelbusch 's Culture of Defeat takes an opposing approach that defeat is a major driver for the defeated to reinvent himself, while the victor, confirmed in his attitudes and methods, dissatisfied by the high losses and paltry gains made, may be less creative and fall back.

More than a survey, full of surprising selections and juxtapositions, Smith's work holds delights for any curious reader and raises important challenges to the dominant categories of philosophy and philosophers in the contemporary university. Standard historical accounts that present the pursuit of philosophy as concerned with a rational demonstration of final truths about reality and human life should instead be seen as attempts to serve a specific social function in addressing tensions between various social ends.

    Back to the Future: Lösch, Isard, and the Role of Money and Credit in the Space-Economy David S. Bieri| August, 2016 Working Paper No. 16-04 WORKING PAPER Suite 312, 250 S. Main St. (0922), Blacksburg, VA 24061 www.gfurr.vt.edu | +1 540 231 8320 Back to the Future: Lösch, Isard, and the Role of Money and Credit in the Space-Economy∗ David S. Bieri†1,2 1Global Forum on Urban and Regional Resilience, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA 24061, USA 2School of Public and International Affairs, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, VA 24061, USA August 2016 Abstract The recent financial crisis has been a powerful reminder that the intersectoral flow of funds is also—always and everywhere—a local phenomenon with real effects. Yet, the con- temporary canon of regional economic theory has enshrined the classical dichotomy, treat- ing the spheres of money and production as analytically distinct. Consequently, the current literature has little to say about monetary phenomena and their spatial consequences. The widespread disengagement of regional scientists with respect to issues of money, credit and banking represents a radical break with the discipline’s intellectual origins over half a century ago. This chapter re-examines the monetary content of some of the foundational works in re- gional science. In particular, I argue that August Lösch and Walter Isard, the former a student of Joseph Schumpeter’s and the latter a student of Alvin Hansen’s, both represent important branches in the long lineage of 20th century continental and U.S. monetary thought, respec- tively. In doing so, this chapter also outlines key elements of a research agenda that reengages with regional aspects of money and credit, casting them as central pillars of a Lösch-Isard synthesis.

  • The Review of Regional Studies
    (2017) 47, 121135 The Review of Regional Studies The Official Journal of the Southern Regional Science Association Fellows Address‒Memphis, Tennessee, March 31st, 2017 56th Meetings of the Southern Regional Science Association Searching for Isard’s Regional Essence* Doug Woodward Darla Moore School of Business, University of South Carolina, USA Abstract: At the inception of the Southern Regional Science Association in the early 1960s, Walter Isard maintained that areal regions are fundamental units of observation and analysis. To this day, understanding the special significance of regions motivates much of our empirical research. In my address, I argue that regional fixed effects estimates from regression analysis can help us comprehend the distinctive character of areal units. This paper offers two examples from my research. First, I present the results of a regression model that explains regional knowledge spillovers in U.S. counties. Santa Clara County (Silicon Valley) has by far the largest fixed effect estimate of any U.S. county. Overall, the county level fixed effects for knowledge spillovers follow a pattern of rapid exponential decay. Next, I inspect neighborhood fixed effects taken from a hedonic housing price model of the Charleston, South Carolina region. The results suggest a clear preference for coastal proximity as reflected in house prices. For neighborhoods away from the coast, the fixed effects estimates exhibit a steep decline toward zero. Like Silicon Valley’s regional advantage in knowledge, beachfront neighborhoods benefit from an exclusive, time invariant advantage that is hard, if not impossible, to replicate in space. Keywords: regional fixed effects, high-technology development, housing JEL Codes: R10, R23, R30 1.

Similar examinations of other disciplines, notably economics, have been conducted in part as a means of minimizing the risks of declining credibility, policy relevance, and societal benefit. With the Southern Regional Science Association celebrating recently its 50th meeting, and as regional science itself approaches its 60th year, this paper provides a reexamination of the core of regional science.

  • House Prices and Home Owner Saving Behavior Gary V
    ECONOMICS ELSEVIER Regional Science and Urban Economics 26 (1996) 313-336 House prices and home owner saving behavior Gary V. Engelhardt Department of Economics, Dartmouth College, Hanover, Nil 03755, USA Received 22 October 1994; final version received 19 June 1995 Abstract This paper examines the empirical link between house price appreciation and the savings behavior of home owners during the 1980s. The analysis uses household asset and debt data for a sample of under age 65 home-owning households from the 1984 and 1989 waves of the PSID to construct changes in real household wealth as a measure of household saving behavior. Cross-time and cross-regional variation in housing market conditions are used to identify behavioral savings effects. The empirical analysis suggests that the estimated marginal propensity to consume out of real housing capital gains is 0.03 for the median saver household. However, there is an asymmetry in the saving response to both total and unanticipated real housing capital gains. All the savings offset comes from households that experience real housing capital losses. Households that experience real gains do not change their saving behavior. The existence of this asymmetry casts doubt on the power of changes in house prices to explain the time-series path of saving in the United States. Keywords: House prices; Saving behavior JEL classification: D91; E21; R31 I. Introduction Changes in the real value of housing wealth in the United States in the last 20 years have resulted in large changes in household balance sheets. Home owners in many areas experienced windfall gains in housing wealth in amounts far greater than the level of their existing financial and housing assets.

  • The Rise (And Decline) of American Regional Science: Lessons for the New Economic Geography? Trevor J
    Journal of Economic Geography 4 (2004) pp. 107±129 The rise (and decline) of American regional science: lessons for the new economic geography? Trevor J. Barnes* Abstract Regional science weaves in and out of the story of post-war economic geography. The vision of one man, the American economist Walter Isard, regional science represented the ®rst systematic attempt to further joint work between geographers and economists. Within this context, the tasks of the paper are twofold. The ®rst is to provide an interpretative history of the rise of regional science, and to a much lesser extent its decline. The interpretative framework derives from science studies, and in particular the work of Bruno Latour. The history is based on archival material and interviews. The second is to speculate brie¯y on the implications of both the interpretive framework used in the paper, and the history of regional science told, for the new economic geography that similarly attempts to convene discussions between economists and geographers. Keywords: regional science; science studies; new economic geography JEL classifications: B290, B300, R190 Date submitted: 15 November 2002 Date accepted: 6 August 2003 1. Introduction The intellectual exchange between economics and economic geography that this journal seeks is not new (Arnott and Wrigley, 2001). As early as 1910, George Chisholm, possibly the ®rst ever Anglo-American economic geographer, argued for the incorporation into economic geography of precepts drawn from the German location school of economics in order to ascertain `the geographical relation of the market to the seats of industry' (Chisholm, 1910; see also Wise, 1975, p.2).
