    No full text
    The fifth UTOPIA500 presentation was April 7, 2016 about St. Thomas More and his Utopia in Antebellum American Lawyers\u27 Thought. A former dean at Kansas Law and a renowned historian of colonial and pre-Civil War America, Professor Michael H. Hoeflich is also a fellow of the Royal Historical Society. He explored the publication history of More\u27s UTOPIA, and the extent to which editions of the book were available in antebellum America. Professor Hoeflich noted that the novel, as a work of politics, was well known by the likes of Jefferson, Madison, and John Adams, but its influence thereafter ebbed and flowed, until it regained its unquestioned prominence in the Twentieth Century

    Uma análise retrospectiva dos principais aspectos da pesquisa agropecuária elaborada pelo Grupo de Trabalho incumbido de definir as funções da pesquisa agropecuária no âmbito do Governo Federal realçou que na época anterior a criação da EMBRAPA havia: uma ausência, ampla e sistemática, de um enfoque económico e social nos projetos de pesquisa;-uma escassez de profissionais nas áreas de economia e estatística no quadro de pesquisadores do sistema federal de pesquisa agropecuária. O Quadro 1 apresenta a participação de pesquisadores em economia agrícola no total de pesquisadores do ENPEA (em 1971) e da EMBRAPA, no período 1973-1985. Uma análise dos dados constantes neste Quadro, indica uma evolução da proporção de 1:141, em 1971, para 1:16, em 1986, referente à participação de 6 economistas agrícolas em 1971 (dentre 851 pesquisadores) e de 100 destes profissionais em 1986 (dentre 1717 pesquisadores). A partir dessas informações contidas nestes Quadros cbserva-se que embora tenha havido um aumento acentuado na participação dos economistas agrícolas na composição do quadro de pesquisadores da EMBRAPA esta participação é, ainda, bastante reduzida se comparada com a situação verificada na maioria dos Centros Internacionais de Pesquisa

    Full-text available at SSRN. See link in this record.Professor Hoeflich explores the notion of serendipity and its components as they relate to historians, particularly legal historians, and to those institutions - libraries and archives - that present the opportunities for serendipity to work its magic. He also discusses the ways in which libraries and archives can help to encourage serendipitous discoveries, and the dangers he sees in over-efficient and economically rational disposal policies, including reproduction instead of preservation of originals

    Legal Publishing in Antebellum America

    No full text
    Legal Publishing in Antebellum America presents a history of the law book publishing and distribution industry in the United States. Part business history, part legal history, part history of information diffusion, M. H. Hoeflich shows how various developments in printing and bookbinding, the introduction of railroads, and the expansion of mail service contributed to the growth of the industry from an essentially local industry to a national industry. Furthermore, the book ties the spread of a particular approach to law, that is, the 'scientific approach', championed by Northeastern American jurists to the growth of law publishing and law book selling and shows that the two were critically intertwined.</jats:p
