Каталог Commerce in Russian Urban Culture 1861-1914: 1861-1914 William Craft Brumfield, Boris V. Anan'Ich, Yuri Petrov, B. V. Ananich, Iu. A. Petrov, Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars Tsarist Russia's commercial class is today receiving serious attention from both Russian and non-Russian historians. This book is a contribution to that literature. Commerce in Russian Urban Culture, 1861-1914 examines the relation between the entrepreneurial world, especially business and banking, and the cultural milieu of Russia. Going beyond the commercial-cultural connection of charitable activity, the contributors to this collaborative project also study cultural activity undertaken by enterprisesfor their own purposes, notably bank and commercial architecture. "Culture and commerce" encompasses two areas in this volume. The first is the business milieu itself as a social and cultural phenomenon. Class and social stratification, types of entrepreneurs, and their mentality, religious affiliations, and charitable activities and donations are covered. The second is their impact on the form of cities, including not only Moscow and St. Petersburg but Odessa and Nizhnii...... Cabela's: World's Foremost Outfitter: A History David Cabela, Chuck Yeager In 1961, Dick Cabela, with his wife, Mary, and his brother, Jim, turned his kitchen table into the foundation of what would become one of the world's top outfitting companies. The origins of this successful business are traced from Dick's bout with polioto his deep love of fishing and hunting that would inspire him. From one small ad in the back of the Casper Tribune (Wyoming) to an annual mailing of 60 million catalogs, Cabela's has served the needs of two generations of outdoor enthusiasts while remaining, at heart, a family business.... The Marshall Plan: Fifty Years After (Europe in Transition: The Nyu European Studies Series) Martin Schain, Tony Judt, Martin A. Schain The text focuses first on the impact of the Marshall plan on the organization of political and economic life in post-war Europe and how the plan was perceived in European public opinion.

Finally, the book analyzes the debate about the economic impact of the Marshall Plan in the post-war economic "miracle" in Western Europe. The authors of these chapters are well-known historians, economists, and political scientists, whose original chapters derive from their work on post-war Europe.... The Wage Curve David G. Blanchflower, Andrew J. Oswald "Labour economics is in ferment [and] this book is a good point of entry to the argument." -- The Economist The Wage Curve casts doubt on some of the most important ideas in macroeconomics, labor economics, and regional economics. According tomacroeconomic orthodoxy, there is a relationship between unemployment and the rate of change of wages. According to orthodoxy in labor economics and regional economics, an area's wage is positively related to the amount of joblessness in the area. The Wage Curve suggests that both these beliefs are incorrect. Blanchflower and Oswald argue that the stable relationship is a downward-sloping convex curve linking local unemployment and the level of pay. Their study, which is one of the most intensive in the history of social science, is based on random samples that provide computerized information on nearly four million people from sixteen countries. Throughout, the authors systematically present evidence and possible explanations for...... Capital Markets and Development: A Sequoia Seminar Steve H. Hanke, Alan A. Walters For decades economists have assumed that poor countries can't support capital markets. This book puts the lie to that. Its wide-ranging exploration of twentieth-century financial institutions reveals that poor countries can't develop without capital markets. From currency management in Russia in 1918 to financial liberalization in modern-day New Zealand and Chile. The case studies of this wide-ranging exploration of financial institutions show that bridging the abyss between barter and a fully convertible currency is no less essential to economic prosperity today than it was eighty years ago. Sound and stable currencies have been easily eroded by government interventions; repressed, fragmented financial systems have been their corollary. Undoingthis damage and reestablishing the strength of a currency is far more difficult, as the recent experiences of Argentina and Chile can attest. As explained in this volume, capital markets were not always critical to development....... <<<  Повесть о прекрасной Отикубо.
