Značilnosti kratke proze Roberta Bolaña
Diplomsko delo skuša podati celosten pregled vseh štirih zbirk kratkih zgodb Roberta Bolaña in predstaviti glavne značilnosti njegove kratke proze. V večini zgodb zasledimo lik Artura Belana, Bolañevega alter ega, ki nastopa kot pripovedovalec, protagonist ali sekundarna oseba. Intertekstualnost je verjetno najpomembnejša lastnost celotne Bolañeve proze, avtor pa s konkretnimi primeri predstavi različne tipe intertekstualnosti, ki se pojavljajo v zgodbah. V zgodbi Sensini gre za poklon argentinskemu pisatelju Antoniu Di Benedettiju, v Beležki plesov (Carnet de baile) pa za kritiko Nerude in parodiranje biblične oblike besedila. V Podganjem policaju (El policía de las ratas) Bolaño prenese dogajalni prostor iz Kafkine zgodbe Pevka Jožefina ali mišji rod in variira temo umetnikove usode, v zgodbi Neznosni gaučo (El gaucho insufrible) pa gre za variacijo toposa civilizacija - barbarstvo, značilnega za južnoameriško književnost. Avtor v delu govori tudi o intermedialnosti med filmom in kratko prozo Roberta Bolaña, za konec pa analizira motive samote tekom umetnikovega ustvarjanja.Undergraduate thesis attempts to present an overview of Roberto Bolaño\u27s four short story collections and its most important characteristics. In the majority of the stories we come across Bolaño\u27s alter ego, a character named Arturo Belano, in the role of narrator, protagonist or secondary character. Intertextuality is probably the most importatnt characteristic of Bolaño\u27s prose and author\u27s goal is to present examples of different types of intertextuality in the stories. The story Sensini pays homage to Argentinian writer Antonio Di Benedetti, meanwhile Dance card mocks Neruda and parodies biblical text form. In the Police rat Bolaño borrows fictional world from Kafka\u27s Josephine the singer, or the mouse folk and writes a variation on the theme of artist\u27s fate. Author also writes about the variation of the famous South American literary topos (civilization - barbarity) which appears in the story The insufferable gaucho. Besides all that, this thesis talks about connection between film and Bolaño\u27s short stories and finishes with the analysis of the motive of loneliness in different periods of Bolaño\u27s work

Family altruism and incentives
The author builds on the altruistic model of the family, to explore the strategic interaction between altruistic parents, and selfish children, when children's efforts are endogenous. If there is uncertainty about the amount of income the children will realize, and if parents have imperfect information, the children have an incentive to exert little effort, and to rely on their parent's altruistically motivated transfers. Because of this, parents face a tradeoff between the insurance that bequests implicitly provide their children, and the disincentive to work prompted by their altruism. The author shows that if parents can credibly commit to a pattern of transfers, they will choose not to compensate children in bad outcomes, as much as predicted by the standard (no uncertainty, no asymmetric information) dynastic model of the family. Alternatively, parents may choose to forgo any insurance, and offer a fixed level of bequest, to elicit greater effort from their children. The optimal transfers structure that the author derives, reconciles the predictions of the altruistic family model, with much of the existing evidence on inter-generational transfers, which suggests that parents compensate only partially, or not at all, for earnings differentials among their children. Moreover, the author shows that Ricardian equivalence holds in this setup, except when non-negativity constraints are binding.Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Health Economics&Finance,Educational Sciences,Safety Nets and Transfers
