    Asia-Europe: the third link

    No full text
    The report provides a comprehensive analysis of Europe-East Asia interdependences (in terms of relative economic weights, trade and financial integration, trade and financial flows, exchange rate and wealth transfers). The prime motivation of the paper is that linkages between Europe and East Asia remain frequently underestimated. While the “third link†between them is in many respects as important as the linkages between the two regions and North America, it is too often regarded only as of secondary importance.Regional integration, Financial integration, Trade integration, East Asia, European Monetary Union, Pisani-Ferry , Cohen-Setton

Critics of Anselm have taken aim particular..

    The Experimental Film in Fascist Italy, or: What is a Cineguf Film?

    No full text
    This dossier’s short selection of essays is meant to shed light on cinema sperimentale, a peculiar phenomenon that developed during Italy’s fascist period. The term translates literally to “experimental cinema” and was applied to all amateur cinema practice during the period in which it became institutionalized, from approximately 1934 to 1943. The amateur film movement originated in the loose liberal organizations usually—but not always —called Cine-clubs, from the French model, when in 1926, a literary circle in Milan (Convegno) inaugurated film sessions, hosting projections of silent film, avant-garde, or amateur films. From 1926 to 1933, a few groups began organizing film activities and producing short films, too. But in 1934, liberal film clubs and associations were pressured into joining with existing university organizations for fascist students called the Gruppi universitari fascisti (University Fascist Groups) or Guf for short. Some Guf actually existed beginning in 1921, a full year before the fascist ascent to power with the March on Rome, but became much more widespread afterwards. Under this umbrella organization, young and aspiring filmmakers could continue developing their amateur practices within these formal groupings, which became officially referred to as the Guf’s Cinema Sections, or Cineguf

    Josephus : noble sicarii suicide or mass-slaughter at Mount Masada? / Nicholas Peter Legh Allen

    No full text
    An attempt is made to ratiocinate historical events at Mount Masada in c. 74 C.E. as related by Josephus Flavius. Cohen (1982:393) clearly sees Josephus as a mostly dishonest historian, one who happily exaggerates and embellishes his accounts. As a consequence of this rhetorical straight-jacket that he places Josephus within, Cohen (for one) cannot accept Josephus’ Masada account as being an “unalloyed version of the truth”. The author analyses Josephus’ track record apropos his recording of other historical events and submits that, rhetorical strategies aside, the historian can largely trust Josephus’ accounts

    Performance Comparison Between Various Tuning Strategies: Ciancone, Cohen Coon & Ziegler- Nicholas Tuning Methods

    No full text
    This paper, explains about the background study of the coupled tank and to model such tanks using Simulink blocks. It must explains, the coupled tanks are used to select the best tuning strategy for PID controller based on its performance and stability, and then the best tuning controller is obtained after comparing various tuning strategies like Ciancone, Cohen Coon &amp; Ziegler- Nicholas tuning methods based on their performance in controlling the couple tanks. The couple tank is then designed on Simulink as well and three different tuning methods for PI &amp; PID controller calculations are implemented. The controller which gives best performance corresponding their tuning parameters which is obtained from various tuning method, and then selected.</jats:p
