THE SPARTAN SCHOOL OF INSTITUTIONAL ECONOMICS AT MICHIGAN STATE UNIVERSITY
Heterodox scholarship at Michigan State University (MSU) was influenced by the institutional economics of John R. Commons at Wisconsin. But it was far from monolithic and had many other sources and originality of its own. A case can be made that the center of institutional economics moved across Lake Michigan from Madison to East Lansing and blossomed in the second half of the 20th century with such Wisconsin Ph.D's as Raleigh Barlowe, Warren Samuels, Allan Schmid, Harry Trebing, and others. Equally important in making MSU a center of institutional economics were scholars from other institutional backgrounds such as Paul Strassmann, economic development; Robert Solo, science and technology; James Shaffer, agricultural marketing and consumer behavior; Nicholas Mercuro, law and economics; and others.Institutional and Behavioral Economics,
Didineis mokrousovi Schmid-Egger 2022, sp. nov.
Didineis mokrousovi Schmid-Egger, sp. nov. (Figs 1–8) Holotype. ♁, United Arab Emirates, Wadi Bih (dam), 19.i.2010, leg. AvH (CSE). Paratypes: 1 ♁, 4.iv.2009, 1♀, 29.xi.2009. 1♀, 11.ii.2010, 1♀, 2.v.2006, all Wadi Bih (dam); ♀, 29.xi.2009, Al Wathba Wetland Reserve; 1 ♁ 1 ♀, 22.06.2019, Al Bida’a Protected Area, all leg. AS &AvH, in Malaise traps (CSE). Remark: In former reviews of Crabronidae from the UAE (Schmid-Egger, 2011, 2014), specimens of Didineis from Wadi Bih were identified as D. bucharica with the key of Nemkov (2015). In the meantime, we could examine two males and two females of true D. bucharica from Russia, Kalmykia (see Mokrousov et al. (2016) for location and discussion of species). The specimens from the UAE differ in some important details from the Russian specimens, and belong to an undescribed species. A male was choosen as the holotype, because the description of D. bucharica is also based on a male. D. bucharica is restricted in its distribution to southern Russia (Dagestan, Kalmykia and Orenburg Prov.) and to Uzbekistan. Diagnosis. Males of both species are characterized by short and thick flagellomeres, flagellomere I beeing emarginate below. Remaining species have longer and normally rounded flagellomeres. Females of both species have also short and thick flagellomeres, but they share this character with other species from North Africa. See also Nemkov (2015) for further details. For distincion of D. bucharica and D. mokrousovi, see Table 1. . Description of male, holotype (copied and modified from description in Schmid-Egger, 2011). Body length 6 mm. Colour: Black, yellow are: basal 2/3 of mandible, clypeus, large band on inner eye margin, ending in upper 2/3, scape and flagellum below, AS 13, pronotal lobe, basal spot on basal sclerite of forewing. Femora and tibiae reddish, tarsi partly reddish, mostly brown. Wing venation brown, forewing greyish with some darker parts below stigma. Tergum I except base and tergum II laterally red, remaining terga black, last tergum apically somewhat reddish. Morphology: Apical clypeal margin slightly emarginate medially. Flagellum see Figs 2 and 3. Frons, pronotum, mesonotum and upper half of mesopleuron finely punctate, punctures 1–3 diameters apart, interspaces shiny. Punctuation of lower frons very dense. Lower mesopleuron rugulose-punctate. Propodeal surface evenly striate, propodeal enclosure triangular, surrounded by fine keel. Propodeum laterally and on backside rugulose. Terga II–V: basally shiny and with very fine micropunctation, apically punctate with shiny interspaces. Tergum VII densely punctate, apically truncate. Description of female: Body length 8.0 mm. Colour. Black, yellow are basal 2/3 of mandible, clypeus except for basal and lateral margin, narrow band along lower half of inner eye margin, scape below, last tarsomeres. Red are fore tibia, outer side of mid tibia, terga and sternum I and II, tergum II with black apical margin, apex of tergum VI. Wings as in male. Morphology: Flagellum: see fig. 6. Punctuation of head and thorax similar as in male, but much denser. Terga I and II shiny, impunctate, terga III–V similar as in male. Tergum VI in apical half surrounded by keel, forming a large pygidial plate with dense punctuation in apical half and with dense reddish setae. All femora below with long pale setae (2/3 as long as femoral diameter). Distribution. United Arab Emirates. Etymology. The species is dedicated to Mikhail Mokrousov from Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, a specialist of Aculeata, who kindly supported this and other projects of the author by sending specimens and information.Published as part of Schmid-Egger, Christian & Harten, Antonius Van, 2022, Additions to the digger wasps (Hymenoptera, Spheciformes) of the United Arab Emirates with description of ten new species, pp. 543-575 in Zootaxa 5219 (6) on pages 544-546, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5219.6.3, http://zenodo.org/record/743623
The elusive author: found photography, authorship and the work of Joachim Schmid. In: Joachim Schmid photoworks 1982-2007
Joachim Schmid began his career in the early 1980s as a freelance critic and the publisher of Fotokritik, an iconoclastic and original contribution to West German photography. In the pages of Fotokritik and in his regular articles and lectures for other venues, Schmid argued articulately and at times vehemently against prevailing, predominantly conservative notions of art photography and in favour of a broad, encompassing critique of photography as a form of cultural practice. After ceasing publication of Fotokritik in 1987, Schmid focused on his own art production, based primarily on found photography and public image sources
Wolf Schmid se kommunikasiemodel as basis vir die dualiteitsbegrip: abstrakte auteur as wesens- en digterspersoonlikheid.
In this article Wolf Schmid\u27s model of communication as propounded in Der Textaufbau in den Erzahlungen Dostoevskijs is used as a basis for a new thesis as regards the concept abstract author. Schmid\u27s model comprises three elements: the author, the work of art as sign and the reader. This article holds that the duality implied in Schmid\u27s term "psychophysischen Dichterpersonlichkeit" should also be made applicable to the concept of the abstract author, regarded by Schmid as the hypostasised image of the author in his text. In this way a very useful distinction can be made between the abstract author as self as he reveals himself in a factual text (autobiography) and the abstract author as "poet" who, operating from the realm of the imagination, produces a fictive text(novel). In its published form, however, the "story text" in the book is preceded by the "writer\u27s text", which is ascribed to the abstract author as self, who "focalizes" or "interprets" what is to follow (e.g. by means of subtitle, motto or titles of chapters). Thus the "writer\u27s text" provides the link between "person" (self) and "poet".
Opsomming In hierdie artikel word Schmid se kommunikasiemodel soos aangebied in Der Textaufbau in den Erzahlungen Dostoevskijs as basis gebruik vir \u27n nuwe tese aangaande die begrip abstrakte outeur. Schmid se model maak voorsiening vir die outeur, die kunswerk as taalteken en die leser. Daar word uitgegaan van die standpunt dat die dualiteit onderliggend aan Schmid se opvatting van die konkrete outeur as \u27n "psycho-physischen Dichterpersonlichkeit" ook van toepassing gemaak behoort te word op die begrip abstrakte outeur, deur horn beskou as die gehipostaseerde spieelbeeld van die konkrete outeur in sy werk. So sal daar dan onderskei kan word tussen die abstrakte outeur as wesenspersoonlikheid soos hy werksaam is in/abstraheerbaar is uit, \u27n feitelike teks soos bv. \u27n outobiografie, en die abstrakte outeur as "digter"-persoonlikheid wat \u27n verbeeldingsteks (roman) daarstel. In sy gepubliseerde vorm bestaan die roman of boek-as-teks uit sowel die verhaalteks (produk van die "digter") as die skrywersteks wat toeligtend - bv. by wyse van motto, sub- of hoofstuktitels - daarby verskyn en wat op rekening van die self (wesenspersoonlikheid) geplaas moet word. Op die wyse word die abstrakte outeur as dubbele entiteit in die skrywersteks verteenwoordig en dien lg. as skakel tussen daargestelde wereld en empiriese wereld

The Abstract Author
The Bachelor's thesis focuses on the concept of so called abstract author. It deals with various forms of abstract author's subject developed in literary theory and narratology: scriptor of R. Barthes, implied author of W. Booth, model author of U. Eco or abstract author of W. Schmid. Futher, the differences between the concepts and the polemics that accompany them (Chatman, Rimmon-Kenanová etc.) are reflected
Thermal and structural evolution of the East Carpathians in northern Romania : from Cretaceous orogeny to final exhumation during Miocene collision
Combining thermochronological methods with structural field data, this study aims to reconstruct the Tertiary burial and exhumation history of the northeastern part of the Tisza‐ Dacia block during its invasion in the Carpathian embayment and final soft collision with the European margin. Zircon fission track data additionally provide information about the last metamorphic overprint during the Cretaceous. Within the basement units of the northern Central East Carpathians (Bucovinian nappe stack) and the Preluca massif (Biharia unit) zircon fission tracks are largely reset during the last (Cretaceous) orogeny. Temperatures during this Alpine metamorphic overprint increase from external to internal within the northern East Carpathians from sub‐greenschist facies conditions to at least greenschist facies conditions. Greenschist facies conditions are also observed in the Preluca massif. The close neighbourhood of Coniacian to Campanian zircon FT cooling ages with Cenomanian sediments suggests Late Cretaceous tectonic exhumation in the northern East Carpathians. The most likely explanation for this tectonic exhumation is a ‐ so far undocumented ‐ Late Cretaceous extension related to orogenic collapse (Gosau type basins). The Tertiary evolution is characterised by the invasion of the previously amalgamated Tisza‐Dacia and ALCAPA blocks into the Carpathian embayment and Miocene soft collision of both these blocks with the European margin. The juxtaposition of the ALCAPA and Tisza‐Dacia blocks, with Tisza‐Dacia in a lower plate position, is announced by the onset of Oligocene turbiditic sedimentation. The Burdigalian SE‐directed over‐thrusting of the Pienides (non‐ metamorphic flysch units) is interpreted to express the final stages of this juxtaposition. Burial heating caused full annealing of fission tracks in apatite (i.e. >120°C) in the Central East Carpathian basement in the NE of the study area, while in the basement of the Preluca massif in the SW of the study area temperatures related to Paleogene to Early Miocene burial did not exceed 80°C. The post‐Burdigalian (post‐16 Ma) soft collision of Tisza‐Dacia with the European margin occurred in two stages expressed by predominantly sinistral strike‐slip deformation during constant NE‐SW shortening. During and following soft collision, combined uplift and erosion caused exhumation of the buried rocks along the European margin. Uplift reaches up to 9 km in the Rodna horst The first post‐Burdigalian transpressional stage (16‐12 Ma) is related to perpendicular convergence of Tisza‐Dacia with the NW‐SE striking European margin. Minor exhumation during this stage resulted in Middle Miocene apatite fission track cooling ages (15‐13 Ma) in the west of the study area. The transtensional stage (12–10 Ma) led to the formation of the Bogdan‐Dragos‐Voda fault system. Sinistral transtension allowed for the docking and fitting of Tisza‐Dacia with the NW‐ SE striking European margin. Oblique E‐W convergence led to strain partitioning with thrusting in the external thrust belt and internal strike‐slip deformation. Differential lateral movements are distributed and deformation is accommodated by E‐W striking sinistral strike slip faults and SW‐NE striking normal faults, which led to fragmentation into SW‐tilted blocks. Fragmentation and differential offset along the bounding faults resulted in the formation of triangular‐shaped graben and corresponding horst structures. Enhanced exhumation during transtensional activity led to advective heat transport and resulted in Middle to Late Miocene apatite fission track cooling ages (13‐7) in the east of the study area

Ctenagenia wahisi sp. nov. agrees in general aspects with C. vespiformis. It is characterized by colour pattern. T1–6 are in greater part or completely yellow, and the mesosoma is black (Figs 3–4). In C. ozbeki and C. vespiformis T1 is black or red (Figs 1–2) (with a very small spot on some C. vespiformis males), and the mesosoma and abdomen are all yellow with some pale red in C. pagliano female. The male of C. pagliano is undescribed. Also, the setae of the head and propodeum are shorter and more sparse in C. wahisi sp. nov. (Fig. 6), compared to C. vespiformis. The foremetatarsus of the female has five spines in C. vespiformis, and four spines in the other species, including C. wahisi sp. nov. (Fig. 7). The ocelli of C. wahisi sp. nov. are smaller than in the remaining species (Fig. 6), and the propodeal surface is more finely sculptured than in C. vespiformis. The male of C. wahisi sp. nov. is also characterized by having a higher and more rounded keel of S8 (seen in lateral view, Fig. 8), compared to C. vespiformis (Fig. 9). T1 is predominantly yellow, and all black or at most with a small medial yellow spot in C.vespiformis. Description of female holotype. Body length 20.0 mm. Colour. Black, with the following parts dark yellow: T1 with large rectangular median spot, T2 except large dark lateral margin, T3–6 completely, with darker lateral margins. S3–6 yellowish brown (Fig. 3). Face, foreleg, metapostnotum and base of S2 with distinct red shimmer. Wing base black, wings yellowish, extreme apex of forewing dark. Wing venation in apical half of wing brown, in basal half yellow. Morphology. Labrum large, apicomedially with small impression. Clypeus clearly bulged medially, ACM nearly straight (Fig. 5). Ocelli and proportions of vertex see Fig. 3. Head below and prosternum with many short, black bristles. Antenna long and slender, AS 3 as long as foremetatarsus. Hind margin of mesopleuron along metapleuron and propodeum with furrow, „gridded“ by small stripes. Horizontal propodeal surface short, 1/3 as long as whole length of propodeum. Metapostnotum deeply recessed between metanotum and propodeum, medially as large as midocellar diameter. Propodeal declivity slightly concave.

Georges Louis Schmid : Banquets de philosophes chez Diderot, d'Holbach, Helvétius et Mably, Présentation
G.-L. Schmid : Philosophical banquets with Diderot, d'Holbach, Helvétius and Mably. Text presented by Hans Ulrich Seifert.
George Louis Schmid (1720-1805) was a Swiss man of letters and author of two Physiocrat-inspired works which were quite successful in their day. He left a diary of his stay in Paris in 1767-9. Although the original has vanished, extracts from it (with descriptions of ten visits to Diderot, d'Holbach, Helvétius and Mably between 25th August 1767 and 28th March 1768) have survived in a German translation. II appears in the Miscellen fur die neueste Weltkunde, a periodical published in the Aargau by Heinrich Zschokke. This article provides an annotated re-translation of the text into French and a short survey of Schmid's life and works.Seifert Hans-Ulrich.
