As the magazine of the Texas Exes, The Alcalde has united alumni and friends of The University of Texas at Austin for nearly 100 years.

Its pages also offer a place for Texas Exes to swap stories and share memories of Austin and their alma mater. The magazine's unique name is Spanish for "mayor" or "chief magistrate"; the nickname of the governor who signed UT into existence was "The Old Alcalde."

This book offers a critical appraisal of Karl Olivecrona’s legal philosophy. Based on Olivecrona’s critique of the view that law has binding force, the analysis of the concept and function of a legal rule, and the idea that law is a matter of organized force, the book argues that Olivecrona’s legal philosophy is a unique contribution to twentieth century legal philosophy. It shows how Olivecrona’s philosophy can be used in the assessment of contemporary theories of law, such as those put forward by Hart, Raz, Dworkin, and Alexy. In addition, the book argues that Olivecrona’s various discussions of theories defended by key people in the history of legal and political philosophy are highly interesting contributions. They not only increase our understanding of the legal and political philosophy of previous generations, but also enhances our insight into legal-philosophical questions that remain with us today.
In the new millennium, categories of identity have become particularly destabilized with the emergence of a new generation of people in the Nordic region who demand more dynamic and fluid identities. New Dimensions of Diversity in Nordic Culture and Society reinvestigates the tired concept of “diversity” to make room for dynamic new realities, as well as the ample new questions to which they give rise. This volume assumes diversity to be a fundamental feature of Nordic modernity. Given that the Nordic countries consistently rank among the world’s wealthiest, most educated, and most egalitarian, these case studies provide important counter-narratives to prevailing local and global disco...

Luftseglingen i Sverige började med en obemannad ballongupp-stigning från Observatoriegården i Stockholm år 1784. Det var en s k Aerostatisk kula som användes och ombord fanns en katt, som för övrigt aldrig påträffades igen efter luftfärden. Tekniken utvecklades snabbt och 1806 återfanns i Stockholm fransmannen Etienne Robertson med uppstigningar för allmänheten. I början av 1800-talet förekom en del spektakulära ballonguppstigningar där luftseglaren tillsammans med djur fastspända under ballongen utförde luftsegling. I ett enstaka fall förekom även ett arrangerat slagsmål mellan två olika folkslag uppe i en gondol under ballongen. Den italienske luftseglaren Joseph Ta...
