    In this issue of The Christian Intelligencer, Rev. Phillip Phelps Jr., Principal of the Holland Academy, concludes his efforts to answer the issues raised by W in the December 1 issue. He very carefully and lovingly gives his defense of the Holland Academy and the fund-raising efforts of Rev. Albertus C. Van Raalte. It is ironic that if W is Rev. Charles Scott that Phelps called him to serve at Hope College later in this decade.https://digitalcommons.hope.edu/vrp_1860s/1033/thumbnail.jp

    Edmund Phelps’ Structuralist Theory of Employment

    No full text
    The paper evaluates the contribution of Nobel Prize-winning American economist Edmund Phelps to the development of contemporary economics. The author analyzes Phelps’ structuralist theory of employment and compares his views with the ideas of other acclaimed economists such as Milton Friedman, John M. Keynes, and Friedrich A. Hayek. Godłów-Legiędź looks at Phelps’ achievements in the context of the Swedish Royal Academy of Sciences’ decision to grant him a Nobel Prize, and describes Phelps’ position on some key dilemmas of 20th century economics. According to Godłów-Legiędź, the assessment of Phelps’ achievements offered by the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences is in fact incomplete, because it overlooks his structuralist theory of employment. Phelps, who calls himself a structuralist, considers this theory of employment to be his most important contribution to macroeconomics, Godłów-Legiędź notes. Phelps’ achievements cannot be viewed exclusively in terms of the link between inflation and unemployment, she says. It is necessary to consider the economist’s focus on what he described as “endogenizing the natural rate of unemployment,” an approach that reveals the differences between Phelps’ theory and those of Keynes and his followers as well as the monetarists and neoclassicists. Defining the natural rate of unemployment as a function of real demand and supply, Phelps referred to the 1930s dispute between Keynes and Hayek that involved the classicist and Austrian interpretations of key economic relationships. Phelps’ unorthodox approach is reflected not only by his theory and attitude to neoclassical economics, Godłów-Legiędź says, but also by his assessment of European and American capitalism and his belief about the need for fundamental changes in economic and social policies

    A Community Abandoned: W. W. Phelps’ 1839 Letter to Sally Waterman Phelps from Far West, Missouri

    During the early years of Mormonism, few men played a more prominent role in the religious movement than William W. Phelps. In April 1830, while engaged in a successful publishing and journalism career in Canandaigua, New York, Phelps secured a copy of the Book of Mormon. After reading it, he was convinced of its truthfulness but postponed baptism for over a year. Finally, in June 1831, he moved his family to Kirtland, Ohio, to unite with the Church. Soon after his baptism, Phelps was called as the first Church printer and publisher and was instructed to move to Independence, Missouri (D&C 55:4; 57:11).

    The data contain an optimization model and supporting analyses to assess the impact of county collaborations on the efficiency of watercraft inspection plans. We apply the model to three scenarios in Minnesota to compare a statewide, country-focused, and collaborative approach. The model considers inspection locations for zebra mussels, starry stonewort, spiny water flea, and Eurasian watermilfoil across 9,182 waterbodies in Minnesota.This repository contains R code, raw and processed data, and associated outputs supporting the results reported in: Kinsley, A, Bajcz A, Haight R, and Phelps N. 2023. Facilitating effective collaboration to prevent aquatic invasive species spread. Biological Invasions [in press]. In brief, this repository provides the inputs, code, and documentation for our process of generating optimization models, using linear integer programming (LIP) in R, that would find optimal placement patterns for watercraft inspection stations to thwart the movement of boats at risk of carrying aquatic invasive species from one lake to another within the state of Minnesota, given certain assumptions about how jurisdictional authority operates within the state.Minnesota Aquatic Invasive Species Research CenterBajcz, Alex, W.; Kinsley, Amy; Haight, Robert; Phelps, Nicholas.
