The First Soviet Estimates of the Victims of the Auschwitz Death Camp --Appendix 3. Europe's Dead and Killed Jews by Countries and Categories: Different EstimatesOver the decades, the Holocaust has remained a critical issue both historically and politically. This is due to the modernization of anti-Semitism in the West, where accusations of ritual murder have long been passé and claims that the Holocaust was a hoax are de riguer, and to the government sanctions of anti-Semitism in the East in countries such as Iran. The purely scholarly problem of determining the number of victims, like other aspects of demography related to the Holocaust, have suddenly become closely embroiled in geopolitics and the phenomenon of Holocaust denial, which is now a context that has been forced upon it. This book is imbued with these connections and interrelationships. Avraham, Wolfgang Benz, Sergio Della Pergola, Mark Kupovetsky, Dieter Pohl, Aron Shneer, and the editors contribute their voices to the topic.Out of seriesHolocaust denialHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)Holocaust denial.Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945)940.531818Kokh Alfred1921083Polian Pavel275857MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9911105714303321Denial of the denial, or the battle of Auschwitz4667125UNINA05266oam 22013814 450 991114938720332120251116183904.0978661382553797814623730171462373011978145277940914527794069781283513081128351308097814519090051451909004(CKB)3360000000443545(EBL)3014371(SSID)ssj0001322403(PQKBManifestationID)11831282(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001322403(PQKBWorkID)11444079(PQKB)10584415(OCoLC)698585604(IMF)WPIEE2006106(MiAaPQ)EBC3014371(IMF)WPIEA2006106WPIEA2006106(EXLCZ)99336000000044354520020129d2006 uf 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAid Scaling Up : Do Wage Bill Ceilings Stand in the Way? /Annalisa Fedelino, Gerd Schwartz, Marijn Verhoeven1st ed.Washington, D.C. :International Monetary Fund,2006.1 online resource (37 p.)IMF Working Papers"April 2006."9781451863666 1451863667 Includes bibliographical references.""Contents""; ""I.

IMPROVING WAGE BILL CONDITIONALITY""; ""REFERENCES""This paper assesses whether the scaling up of aid and the resulting increase in government spending that is needed to meet the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) would be hampered by wage bill ceilings that are often part of government programs supported by the IMF's Poverty Reduction and Growth Facility (PRGF). Based on country case studies for 2003-05, the paper suggests that, in the past, wage bill ceilings have not restricted the use of available donor funds. Yet the paper offers a number of suggestions for further enhancing the flexibility of wage bill conditionality in PRGF-supported programs to respond to higher aid flows that may result in the future.IMF Working Papers; Working Paper ;No. 2006/106WagesEconometric modelsLabor policyEconometric modelsEconomic assistanceEconometric modelsAggregate Human CapitalimfAggregate Labor ProductivityimfCivil service & public sectorimfCivil service reformimfCivil serviceimfEmploymentimfExpenditureimfFiscal PolicyimfForeign AidimfGovernment wage billimfIncome economicsimfIncomes PolicyimfIntergenerational Income DistributionimfLaborimfLabourimfNational Government Expenditures and Welfare ProgramsimfPrice PolicyimfPublic finance & taxationimfPublic FinanceimfPublic Sector Labor MarketsimfPublic sector wagesimfUnemploymentimfWage adjustmentsimfWage DifferentialsimfWage Level and StructureimfWagesimfWages, Compensation, and Labor Costs: Generalimfincome economicsimfGhanaimfWagesEconometric models.Labor policyEconometric models.Economic assistanceEconometric models.Aggregate Human CapitalAggregate Labor ProductivityCivil service & public sectorCivil service reformCivil serviceEmploymentExpenditureFiscal PolicyForeign AidGovernment wage billIncome economicsIncomes PolicyIntergenerational Income DistributionLaborLabourNational Government Expenditures and Welfare ProgramsPrice PolicyPublic finance & taxationPublic FinancePublic Sector Labor MarketsPublic sector wagesUnemploymentWage adjustmentsWage DifferentialsWage Level and StructureWagesWages, Compensation, and Labor Costs: Generalincome economicsFedelino AnnalisaSchwartz GerdVerhoeven MarijnInternational Monetary Fund.Fiscal Affairs Department.DcWaIMFBOOK9911149387203321UNINA02522nam 2200577Ia 450 991114004050332120260619221655.00-19-983906-91-280-76075-397866107607560-19-802368-50-19-534460-X(CKB)1000000000405984(EBL)430921(OCoLC)437115192(MiAaPQ)EBC430921(Au-PeEL)EBL430921(CaPaEBR)ebr10358496(CaONFJC)MIL76075(FINmELB)ELB167169(UkBuK)842671(UkBuK)354894(EXLCZ)99100000000040598419920910d1993 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierThe linguistics wars /Randy Allen Harris1st ed.Oxford University Press19951 online resource (369 p.)Description based upon print version of record.0-19-509834-X Includes bibliographical references and index.Contents; 1.

Whence and Whither; Notes; Works Cited; IndexWhen it was first published in 1957, Noam Chomsky's Syntactic Structure seemed to be just a logical expansion of the reigning approach to linguistics. Soon, however, there was talk from Chomsky and his associates about plumbing mental structure; then there was a new phonology; and then there was a new set of goals for the field, cutting it off completely from its anthropological roots and hitching it to a new brand of psychology. Rapidly, all of Chomsky's ideas swept the field. While the entrenched linguists were not looking for a messiah, apparently many of their students were.
