El soporte del tiempo: La partitura como objeto para el estudio de la evoluci—n art’stica en el siglo XX
Los estudios de la evolución sufrida por las artes plásticas a lo largo del siglo XX, principalmente realizados mediante el análisis de obras pictóricas, escultóricas, arquitectónicas y, en menor medida, fotográficas y videográficas, han obviado hasta la fecha un documento tan particular como sería la partitura. Mediante su análisis formal, y recurriendo a un collage de citas que demuestran la dispersión de su estudio en ámbitos totalmente ajenos al musical, argumentaremos la necesidad de considerar estas un objeto de estudio indispensable que ejemplifica igualmente asuntos como la disolución de la figura, el assemblage, la revalorización de la cotidianidad o la fascinación y el temor por la máquina. Un análisis alternativo de la historia de la música del siglo XX, no fundamentado en la escucha, que a su vez pretende establecer nuevos parámetros para el estudio de la historia del arte.

Leaning Against the Wind and the Timing of Monetary Policy
If monetary policy is to aim also at financial stability, how would it change? To analyze this question, this paper develops a general-form framework. Financial stability objectives are shown to make monetary policy more aggressive: in reaction to negative shocks, cuts are deeper but shorter-lived than otherwise. By keeping cuts brief, monetary policy tightens as soon as bank risk appetite heats up. Within this shorter time span, cuts must then be deeper than otherwise to also achieve standard objectives. Finally, we analyze how robust this result is to the presence of a bank regulatory tool, and provide a parameterized example.
How Does Foreign Direct Investment Affect Economic Growth
We test the effect of foreign direct investment (FDI) on economic growth in a cross-country regression framework, utilizing data on FDI flows from industrial countries to 69 developing countries over the last two decades. Our results suggest that FDI is an important vehicle for the transfer of technology, contributing relatively more to growth than domestic investment. However, the higher productivity of FDI holds only when the host country has a minimum threshold stock of human capital. In addition, FDI has the effect of increasing total investment in the economy more than one for one, which suggests the predominance of complementarity effects with domestic firms.
Steps by Steps
"The Steps for the Future documentary film project began in 2000, as a shared journey by talented African filmmakers and well-known professionals from around the world. The experience of the North combined with the knowledge of the South was an auspicious fusion that helped create 38 unique films. It was also the catalyst for new documentary projects such as Why Democracy? All the films produced dealt with the question of death and the enormous problem of HIV and AIDS in Southern Africa. Films that millions of people have seen worldwide, that have received awards from Cannes to Zanzibar, and \2013 dubbed into local languages \2013 are still used throughout southern Africa. Steps by Steps provides an honest and thorough picture of the process, step by step. Detailed accounts of the logistics of making the series are mingled with reflections on the art of direction, working with other people and the reality of the lives of those people affected by HIV and AIDS. Steps by Steps gives a rare behind-the-scenes look at the making of documentary films and the building of a worldwide project, complete with its problems and triumphs, mistakes and unique results"--Publisher's website.

Age Of Fire Is Over, The: A New Approach To The Energy Transition
The heart of the contemporary argument on climate change and energy transition focuses on how energy supply should be decarbonized to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions.This book proposes an alternative approach.The Age of Fire Is Over: A New Approach to the Energy Transition finds that energy transitions are not driven by supply-side driven transformations but rather by evolutions in demand patterns.Exploring the potential of recently emerged key technologies, The Age of Fire Is Over argues that the so-called Energy Transition has not yet started. In the future, key technologies will significantly transform demand and provide services at a fraction of today's cost or offer new services not y...
