    Assessing the George W. Bush Presidency: A Tale of Two Terms

    No full text
    In one of the first volumes assessing the full two terms of the George W. Bush presidency, Wroe and Herbert have gathered the work of leading American and European scholars. In fifteen succinct and incisive chapters, authorities such as Jim Pfiffner, John Maltese, Graham Wilson and Alan Gitelson offer assessments of the Bush administration's successes and failures. Extensive attention is paid to Bush's foreign policy, including 'The War on Terror' but the focus is broadened to absorb not only the Bush Doctrine and its repercussions, but also his trade and homeland security policies. The president's domestic leadership in economics and social policy is investigated, as are his dealings as president with the other institutions of the U.S. political system. The result is a comprehensive guide to the Bush presidency and its legacy

    Price Impact of Block Trades and Price Behavior Surrounding Block Trades in Indian Capital Market

    No full text
    We analyze the permanent (information effect) and temporary (liquidity effect) impact of block trades transacted in the National Stock Exchange of India. Block trades are identified using multiple criteria based on trade value and trade volume. Overall, the permanent price impact is more for block purchases than for block sales indicating that block purchases are more informative than block sales, which may be motivated by liquidity need. Unlike in other markets, we observe that the temporary impact is greater than the permanent impact in case of block purchase. We classify the block trades as All-or-None (AON) and Not-AON trades depending on the number of transactions through which a block order is executed. As expected, the price impact is higher for Not-AON trades as compared to AON trades (which can be assumed to be pre-negotiated trades). Further, arrival of multiple block trades increases market confidence on the information. The permanent price impact is higher for days where there are more than one block trade of similar nature than for days with only one block trade. To analyze the speed of market response to the information associated with block trades, we have used the ‘transaction time event approach’, as used by Holthausen et al. (1990). We find that the prices start increasing (front running) 8 minutes before block purchases but not in case of block sales i.e. some information about the impending block purchase is factored in by the market when the block trade is for purchases. Further, in the case of block sales, prices revert quickly leaving very small permanent price impact.

    Polymeric materials for piezoelectricity and second harmonic generation

    Studies have been undertaken to utilise the possible potential of the rodlike, helical structures associated with polyglutamates and polyisocyanates for piezoelectric (PE) and nonlinear optical (second harmonic generation (SHG)) applications. Various techniques have been employed to form samples/films of these polymers containing oriented helices whose bulk structures are non-centrosymmetric, (an important criterium for the aforementioned applications). Owing to the poor yields obtained for certain intermediates in the synthetic stages of these polymers, only poly('S-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PBzLG) and poly(n- hexylisocyanate) (PHIC) were available for subsequent studies. Piezoelectric work was limited to hydrostatic measurements (d3h) made on electrically poled, composite (guest host), polymer samples. Phase separation was common in all the samples, but no piezoelectric response was observed. However, low concentration (not greater than 10% w/w) of active polymer (PBzLG or PHIC) and high conductivity during the poling stage, may have accounted for the lack of response. Electrically poled, homopolymer samples of PBzLG and PHIC were achieved using a solvent evaporation technique. Nonlinear optical studies of these poled samples revealed threshold fields above which detectable levels of SHG could be observed, (i. e. PBzLG > 40 V/mm, PHIC > 150 V/mm) - The variation of SHG signal versus. the angle of polarisation of the incident laser light (1064 nm) relative to the poling direction of the film,, implied biaxial symmetry was present in the case of PBzLG, whereas the more conventional uniaxial symmetry was observed for PHIC. The variation in SHG signal observed for a fixed thickness was attributed to varying degrees of alignment, resulting from uneven poling. Although PHIC and PBzLG showed low SHG activity (less than value for urea), little ageing of this activity occurred over the 6 month testing period. Langmuir Blodgett studies carried out on chemically modified, low molecular weight PBzLG molecules showed poor transference of the monolayer to a quartz substrate once ten layers had been deposited. In addition, areas per molecule (or per residue) calculated from the pressure-area isotherms, proved inconclusive when deducing possible orientations for the PBzLG helices. No SHG signal was observed for the L. B. films
