Sommario/riassunto

Im Spätsommer 1916 trafen hoch über London deutsche Zeppeline als die ersten Langstreckenbomber der Geschichte auf die Jagdflugzeuge der britischen Armee und Marine. Die Luftkämpfe von 1916 markieren den Höhepunkt und den Anfang vom Ende des ersten strategischen Bombenfeldzuges. Frederik Gerhardt beschreibt, wie u. a. die rasche Entwicklung der Luftfahrt dazu führte, dass man nunmehr in der Lage war, Produktionsstätten, Verkehrswege und Zivilbevölkerung anzugreifen. In Deutschland als Wunderwaffe gefeiert, wurden die Zeppeline in England aufgrund der Bombardierung von Zivilisten, Frauen und Kindern als sogenannte „Baby Killers“ aufs Schärfste verurteilt. Die Luftangriffe trugen zusammen mit dem Einsatz von Giftgas bei Ypern und der Versenkung des Passagierdampfers Lusitania wesentlich dazu bei, das Bild der Deutschen als „barbarische Hunnen“ zu formen.

Sommario/riassunto

Analyzing macroeconomic impacts of oil price changes requires first to investigate different sources of these changes and their distinct effects. Kilian (2009) analyzes the effects of an oil supply shock, an aggregate



demand shock, and a precautionary oil demand shock. The paper's aim is to model macroeconomic consequences of these shocks within a new Keynesian DSGE framework. It models a small open economy and the rest of the world together to discover both accompanying effects of oil price changes and their international transmission mechanisms. Our results indicate that different sources of oil price fluctuations bring remarkably diverse outcomes for both economies.

Sommario/riassunto

In pre-scientific thought mind itself, and its religious perceptions particularly, were considered gifts from God, injected into a previously created world of matter. By contrast, all the contributors to this book accept an evolutionary account of life, mind and its religious dispositions. However they hold more divergent views on the relation of



mind to body and brain, on the validity of those religious dispositions, and on how far even Christ, and his predicted Second Coming, may be seen as...
