not bear up to close scrutiny. Particularly in the writings of Veblen and Commons, there is a strong emphasis on the importance and priority of the tasks of theoretical explanation and theoretical development. Whatever their limitations, the early institutionalists addressed crucial theoretical issues. For example, Veblen (1899, 1919) was the first social scientist to attempt to develop a theory of economic and institutional evolution along essentially ODAY, THE TERM “new…

phenomena, and started spending more time writing. Sherlock Holmes debuted in 1887 in "A Study in Scarlet," and in a short time proved so popular that Conan Doyle felt compelled to "kill" him in "The Final Problem," published in 1893. Recognizing early on that his creation might become a kind of straitjacket, Conan Doyle worked hard to distance himself from Holmes and indulge his many other interests. WORK Books written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, other than the Sherlock Holmes series, include:

horizontal and very inclined showers, interesting as potentially generated by neutrinos. Those showers could be triggered using their signatures: i.e. a curvature of the shower front, transformed on the rise time of traces or muon component giving early peak for ”old” showers. Currently available powerful and costeffective FPGAs provide sufficient resources to implement new triggers not available in the past. The paper describes the implementation of 16-point Discrete Fourier Transform…

características distintivas de cada país e marcando, em cada território, o princípio dos Tempos Modernos. Na Inglaterra, esta revolução foi tardia em relação aos outros países europeus, assumindo maior expressão na Era Isabelina (1558-1603). O período “Early Modern” (séculos XVI a XVIII), no qual o Renascimento se enquadra, é coincidente com as Dinastias Tudor (1485-1603) e Stuart (1603-1714) e define um contexto mais amplo de transformações políticas, económicas, sociais e religiosas…

different forms, the latest being neoliberalism which emerged out of the crisis of the 1970s and has been imposed from the core capitalist countries onto the developing world. Dumenil and Levy argue that the current crisis is the fourth major crisis of modern capitalism, following the crisis of the 1890s, the Great Depression of the 1930s and the crisis of the 1970s. Such crises go beyond ordinary recessions as they are structural so alter the social order and international relations.…

her own values; the rebel's resistance is based on a value discovered in the very act of resisting. But once again, the history of modern revolution shows, according to Camus, that rebellion has too often slipped from the point of tension which allows it to be creative and a$rmative into perversions which bring it merely to destroy and negate. Rebels, for most of modern history, have been nothing but a series of tragic failures in their attempts at a sort of Nietzschean self-overcoming…
