Abstract:

AbstractContrary to Baker and Wurgler (2002), I find that the importance of historical average market-to-book ratios in leverage regressions is not due to past equity market timing. Although equity transactions may be timed to equity market conditions, they do not have significant long lasting effects on capital structure. Debt transactions exhibit timing patterns that are unlikely to induce a negative relation between market-to-book ratios and leverage. I also find that historical average market-to-book ratios have significant effects on current financing and investment decisions, implying th

Abstract:

The blogging culture has become an important and integrated part of the book trade and has influenced the publishing, marketing and distribution of literature in North America and in many European countries. However, it is unclear how this potential agency among bloggers operates, and thus far most research has concerned politics, media systems and larger social structures. The present article is a study of the Swedish book blogs during the autumn of 2009 and an attempt to address a small, but significant, part of the Internet influence.

Abstract:

Abstract Deriving historical dates or datable stratifications for texts in Classical Sanskrit, such as the epics Mahābhārata and Rāmāyaṇa, is a considerable challenge for text-historical research. This paper provides empirical evidence for subtle but noticeable diachronic changes in the fundamental linguistic structures of Classical Sanskrit, and argues that Classical Sanskrit shows enough diachronic variation for dating texts on the basis of linguistic developments. Building on this evidence, it evaluates machine learning algorithms that predict approximate dates of composition for Sanskrit t

Abstract:

In several ways, The Ring and the Book presents itself as an epic. It is long, and long in the epic way: twelve books. It gives the impression of moving from place to place and from incident to incident, and it contains plenty of conflict, harrowing episodes, and violent struggles. And yet upon reflection, The Ring and the Book quickly loses its savor of the epic. Its length derives not from the sequential narration of causally-related, Fate-driven events of historical importance, but rather from a series of competing analyses of just one relatively brief and decidedly unheroic set of events.

The author then discusses five main areas in which ambiguities in Sewell's approach might be clarified or his arguments pushed farther.

AbstractThis paper examines time-series patterns of external financing decisions and shows that publicly traded U.S. firms fund a much larger proportion of their financing deficit with external equity when the cost of equity capital is low. The historical values of the cost of equity capital have long-lasting effects on firms’ capital structures through their influence on firms’ historical financing decisions. We also introduce a new econometric technique to deal with biases in estimates of the speed of adjustment toward target leverage. We find that firms adjust toward target leverage at a mo

Abstract:

This article presents the problem of the relationship between two landmark subsystems in the conceptual space of the musical composition text: notation and author’s instructions, comments of various types and functions. The author contrasts the text formal division (it is used in performing and pedagogical practice, non-binding “notes” and instructions by the composer of minor importance) and views of musicians who see in the traditional dichotomy “musical text – comments on it” a theoretical problem. The differences in approaches to it are analyzed in the works by S. E. Feinberg, E. Ya. Liber

This roundtable celebrates the twentieth anniversary of Stephen Skowronek’s Building a New American State: The Expansion of National Administrative Capacities, 1877–1920 (1982). Skowronek’s book introduced scholars to the emerging field of historical institutionalism, offering an interdisciplinary approach to analyzing government and public policy. Tackling three different policy areas, the book offered a pathbreaking examination of institutional development and a treatment of political actors that moved beyond standard accounts of elites who responded only to societal or corporate demands.

Abstract:

Abbott’s 19th century book, Flatland, continues to be popularly interpreted as both a social commentary and a way of visualizing the 4th-dimension by analogy. I attempt here to integrate these two seemingly disparate readings. Flatland is better interpreted as a story with a central theme that social, perceptual, and conceptual innovations are linked to changes in geometry. In such cases as the shift from the two-dimensional world of Flatland to a three-dimensional Spaceland, the taxonomic restructuring of human importance from Linnaeaus to Darwin, or the part/whole proportional shift from Pto

Abstract This article examines two short stories: Teréz Müller’s Igaz történet [A True Story] and József Bálint senior’s Imádkozzál és dolgozzál [Pray and Work]. The argument explores the way the texts reflect on shifts in power in the Hungarian region of Vojvodina, and the way power structures define the relationship between majority and minority in a society that undergoes constant and radical changes. Contemporary historical events of the twentieth century, changes, faultlines, traumatic life events and identity shifts emerge as the contexts for these narratives of the daily experiences of

In this imaginary account, through the form of dialogues, I compare, contrast, and examine concepts in Foucault’s and Ahmed’s works—specifically, the chapter “Docile Bodies” in Discipline and Punish, published in 1977, and the book Livin

The study deals with differentiated social «communities» peculiar to the Roman society of the late period (Empire era), which formed the «meaningful contents» of the everyday life culture constructs. As one of the typical «artifacts» there are considered «book» texts (epigrams of Martialis), reflecting «small» events of social and family life of Rome. The study aims to trace the transformation of traditional social communities (of the class, family, political, professional, ethnic types) caused by historical social practice, Roman ideology, mental concepts and stereotypes of social behavior.

The state structures are based on the military structure. For centuries, the socio-political elite of our people has naturally been of military origin.

With a pure secular discourse having proven ineffective in confronting Islam, the same discourse has been repackaged in a religious garb, pouring old wine into an even older bottle in order to fight fire with fire.
