Book Festschrift Liber Amicorum Tu rulansay

Download or read book Festschrift Liber Amicorum Tu rulansay written by Sabih Arkan and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turul Ansay is an outstanding figure in the landscape of comparative law. In a field that holds ever-growing promise for the future, he continues to manifest his tireless spirit in a wide arc of influential activity. The spectrum of his achievement encompasses many areas of substantive law as well as legal education. He is noted also for his direct contributions to the national legal systems of more than a few countries notably that of his native Turkey contributions characterized by the deep integrity that a truly comparative perspective brings. This impressive Festschrift in honour of Dr. Ansay's 75th birthday presents signal contributions by no less than thiry-six of his colleagues and fellow-comparatists, all of them well-known scholars in their fields. They offer insightful views on some of the many tasks of legal scholarship taken up by Dr. Ansay in the course of his long career, including such areas as the following: European competition law Conflicts of labor law conflicts among EC law and various national legal systems European real property law multiple nationality and diplomatic protection fundamental rights and private international law international consumer protection family relations in foreign law and in international family law Rights on immovable properties in Europe international agreements on jurisdiction the Anglo-internationalisation of law and language foreign direct investment protection legal education in Germany The wealth of material in this book represents a treasury of commentary and information that no student of comparative law will want to do without. Because of its array of outstanding authors in the field and its important sidelights on such areas as transplanted law, legal and social change, comparative law methodology, European legal integration and convergence, and cross-border import and export of ideas and institutions, this book is far more than a liber amicorum: it is a major new contribution to the field of comparative law, and will be of great value not only to academics but to lawyers involved in cross-border practice in areas such as family law, human rights law, and international business transactions.

Book Festschrift for Lucien Le Cam

Download or read book Festschrift for Lucien Le Cam written by David Pollard and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contributed in honour of Lucien Le Cam on the occasion of his 70th birthday, the papers reflect the immense influence that his work has had on modern statistics. They include discussions of his seminal ideas, historical perspectives, and contributions to current research - spanning two centuries with a new translation of a paper of Daniel Bernoulli. The volume begins with a paper by Aalen, which describes Le Cams role in the founding of the martingale analysis of point processes, and ends with one by Yu, exploring the position of just one of Le Cams ideas in modern semiparametric theory. The other 27 papers touch on areas such as local asymptotic normality, contiguity, efficiency, admissibility, minimaxity, empirical process theory, and biological medical, and meteorological applications - where Le Cams insights have laid the foundations for new theories.

Book Comparative Advantage  Growth  and the Gains from Trade and Globalization

Download or read book Comparative Advantage Growth and the Gains from Trade and Globalization written by Robert M Stern and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2011-07-21 with total page 712 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alan Deardorff was 65 years old on June 6, 2009. To celebrate this occasion, a Festschrift in his honor was held on October 2–3, 2009, in the Rackham Amphitheater at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. The Festschrift was entitled “Comparative Advantage, Economic Growth, and the Gains from Trade and Globalization: A Festschrift in Honor of Alan V Deardorff.” It was co-organized by two of Professor Deardorff's former students, Drusilla Brown of Tufts University and Robert Staiger of Stanford University, together with Robert Stern representing the University of Michigan. The first day of the Festschrift involved a series of panels in which invited participants reflected on Professor Deardorff's contributions, including his writings on: comparative advantage; trade and growth; the gains from trade and globalization; and computational modeling and trade policy analysis. The panel participants prepared written comments, setting out their evaluation of Professor Deardorff's contributions combined with their own thoughts on the current state of knowledge and analysis of the particular topic. At the end of the first day, Paul Krugman of Princeton University and The New York Times delivered a Citigroup Foundation Special Lecture entitled “Reflections on Globalization: Yesteryear and Today.” All of these papers and Krugman's lecture are contained in the volume. In order to provide further perspective on the foregoing topics, each section of the volume includes reprints of a number of Professor Deardorff's most important papers that underlie the reflections on his work by the following Festschrift panelists whose original works are presented in this volume: James E Anderson, Boston College and NBERRobert E Baldwin, University of WisconsinAvinash Dixit, Princeton UniversityWilfred J Ethier, University of Pennsylvania and Tbilisi State UniversityGene M Grossman, Princeton UniversityThomas W Hertel, Purdue UniversityRonald W Jones, University of RochesterAnne O Krueger, Johns Hopkins SAIS and Stanford Center for International DevelopmentPaul Krugman, Princeton University and The New York TimesJames R Markusen, University of Colorado and University College, DublinWill Martin, The World BankJ Peter Neary, University of Oxford and CEPRArvind Panagariya, Columbia UniversityT N Srinivasan, Yale UniversityRobert M Stern, University of MichiganJohn Sweetland, The Winsford CorporationContents:Special Lectures:Remarks: Deardorff Festschrift (John Sweetland)Citigroup Foundation Special Lecture (Paul Krugman)Comparative Advantage in a Changing Global Economy:Alan Deardorff on Comparative Advantage (James E Anderson)Comparative Advantage in a Changing Global Economy (Avinash Dixit)Comparative Advantage Meets Alan Deardorff (Wilfred J Ethier)In Defense of Cones (Ronald W Jones)Increasing Returns in a Comparative Advantage World (Paul Krugman)Heckscher, Ohlin, and Deardorff (J Peter Neary)Weak Links in the Chain of Comparative Advantage (Alan V Deardorff)The General Validity of the Law of Comparative Advantage (Alan V Deardorff)The General Validity of the Heckscher–Ohlin Theorem (Alan V Deardorff)Comparative Advantage and International Trade and Investment in Services (Alan V Deardorff)FIRless FIRwoes: How Preferences Can Interfere with the Theorems of International Trade (Alan V Deardorff)International Trade with Lumpy Countries (Paul N Courant and Alan V Deardorff)The Possibility of Factor Price Equalization, Revisited (Alan V Deardorff)Fragmentation in Simple Trade Models (Alan V Deardorff)How Robust is Comparative Advantage?

Book A Festschrift in Honor of Rami Arav

Download or read book A Festschrift in Honor of Rami Arav written by Richard Freund and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bethsaida, a fishing town on the north end of the Sea of Galilee, plays a prominent role in the Gospels, was home for several of Jesus’ disciples, and was the location of the feeding of the 5,000 and many of Jesus’ other healings. However, the Golden Age of Biblical Archaeology all but ignored this important site until 1987 when a young Israeli archaeologist, Rami Arav, undertook a probe revealing early Roman pottery, coins, and the remains of domestic buildings. This led to a thirty-two-year-long research project at Bethsaida, adding to our knowledge of the Historical Jesus and his disciples, and acting as a window into the world of common first-century men and women going about their daily lives in the realm of the family of the Emperor Augustus and the Herodians. The big surprise was that layers below the surface (and a thousand years earlier), there also appeared a major iron-age capital city of the Geshurites with a magnificent palace, impregnable city walls, a massive four-chamber gate system, and many religious symbols. This volume honors the work of Arav, who tirelessly dedicated himself to this dig, establishing the Bethsaida Excavations Project and bringing together a consortium of Universities and Colleges and a diverse team of international scholars who have joined in collaborative research to uncover the story of Bethsaida. In this volume, a representative selection of Bethsaida scholars shares their research to demonstrate the success of Arav’s venture spanning over three decades.
