Imagination under Pressure, 1789–1832

Imagination under Pressure, 1789–1832

John Whale

Cambridge University Press
2000
sidottu
This ambitious study, first published in 2000, offers a radical reassessment of one of the most important concepts of the Romantic period - the imagination. In contrast to traditional accounts, John Whale locates the Romantic imagination within the period's lively and often antagonistic polemics on aesthetics and politics. In particular he focuses on the different versions of imagination produced within British writing in response to the cultural crises of the French Revolution and the ideology of utilitarianism. Through detailed analysis of key texts by Burke, Paine, Wollstonecraft, Bentham, Hazlitt, Cobbett and Coleridge, Imagination under Pressure seeks to restore the role of imagination as a more positive force within cultural critique. The book concludes with a chapter on the afterlife of the Coleridgean imagination in the work of John Stuart Mill and I. A. Richards. As a whole it represents a timely and inventive contribution to the ongoing redefinition of Romantic literary and political culture.

Lost Horse Press

pokkari
In John Whalen’s quintessentially tempestuous Caliban, the main character is an outcast and a slave to his passions. If Shakespeare had Miranda, Whalen’s Caliban has Melanie in his dream world, the working-class and suburban settings that enthrall him.The wonder of this debut book of poems is that its fractured narratives and cris de coeur reconstruct a “brilliant television orchard” of images. Although Whalen revels in disjunction, his vision is starkly focused. Caliban bristles with “pissed bees,” station wagons—no it glitters, multifaceted, diamond clear! Pick it up, feel its glacial heat; meet John Whalen!

Using Kenneth Burke's concept of dramatism as a way of exploring multiple motivations in symbolic expression, Tibet on Fire examines the Tibetan self-immolation movement of 2011-2015. The volume asserts that the self-immolation act is an affirmation of Tibetan identity in the face of cultural genocide.

Uk Tax Policy and Applied General Equilibrium Analysis

Uk Tax Policy and Applied General Equilibrium Analysis

John Piggott; John Whalley

Cambridge University Press
1985
sidottu
In the last ten years, general equilibrium modelling has become a significant area of applied economic research. Its focus is to develop techniques to facilitate economy wide quantitative assessment of allocative and distributional impacts of policy changes. This book presents the first full length treatment of the development and application of an applied general equilibrium model of the Walrasian type, constructed to analyse UK taxation and subsidy policy. It also provides results of model experiments which have been designed to inform the policy debate, not only in the UK but also in other countries.
Applying General Equilibrium

Applying General Equilibrium

John B. Shoven; John Whalley

Cambridge University Press
1992
sidottu
The aim of this book is to make more widely available a body of recent research activity that has become known as applied general equilibrium analysis. The central idea underlying this work is to convert the Walrasian general equilibrium structure (formalized in the 1950s by Kenneth Arrow, Gerard Debreu and others) from an abstract representation of an economy into realistic models of actual economies. Numerical, empirically based general equilibrium models can then be used to evaluate concrete policy options by specifying production and demand parameters and incorporating data reflective of real economies. Shoven and Whalley describe all aspects of developing applied general equilibrium models, including developing an appropriate equilibrium structure, calibrating the model, compiling counterfactual equilibria, and interpreting results. The authors contend that the Walrasian general equilibrium model provides an ideal framework for appraising the effects of policy changes on resource allocation, assessing who gains and who loses, and the policy impacts not well covered by empirical macro models. The applications in the book illustrate a number of ways in which fresh insights are provided in longstanding policy controversies.

This book examines the recent controversy between international trade and environmental policies. It analyses the use of environmentally-motivated trade policies, national environmental policies, and their relationships with the rules governing trade, critically examining proposals rule reform. A theoretical framework is provided for a consideration of the efficiency of environmental trade policies and an evaluation made of empirical links between environmental policy differences and trade flows. Concerns of developing countries over environmentally-motivated market access restrictions are highlighted in considering international trade rules and the agreements reached at UNCED.

Emerging Agenda For Global Trade

Emerging Agenda For Global Trade

Robert Z. Lawrence; Dani Rodrik; John Whalley

Overseas Development Council,U.S.
1997
pokkari
This essay addresses the "new-new" issues on the emerging agenda for the global trade negotiations to follow the recently concluded Uruguay Round. The authors first examine the extent to which international rules in new trade areas are needed and then consider the three highest profile issues: competition policy, labor standards, and linking trade and environment. Robert Lawrence argues that if an international agreement on competition policy was possible, developing countries would derive considerable benefits. Dani Rodrik examines the evidence and concludes that labor standards-or lack thereof-have consequences for trade and foreign investment patterns. He then considers whether a social-safeguards approach can be made to work for labor standards and suggests that the risks of not negotiating such a clause outweigh the dangers of an inappropriately designed process. Finally, John Whalley argues that the central issue for trade and the environment is whether developing countries should be compensated for policies encouraging environmental restraint.
The Weed Day Massacre

The Weed Day Massacre

New Wave

Every year on April 20 marijuana smokers worldwide celebrate a day of fun, all done in the spirit of peace, but this year millions of Americans simultaneously fell dead for unknown reasons. They thank God for the gift of marijuana to humanity. But the order of magnitude for such a widespread killing spree pointed to a man-made event, as Mother Nature could not have been so meticulous in her plan; deliberate in her approach, and thorough in her execution. Twenty-four hours after the annual "smoke-in" the TV Breaking News articles were a series of unbelievable stories, photos, and accounts of an apocalypse. The death count surpassed that of an Atomic Bomb without an enemy or attack to attribute the horror. Without answers as to why bodies were scattered from coast to coast, the public was panic-stricken full of anxiety and fear. Bodies were anywhere a person would go to feel safe to be themselves for a few minutes. The challenge wasn't completed by the poison weed or the act of smoking it. The success of the massacre lay in the production and unique distribution approach to chemical warfare - attack from within.Central to the story's theme is a cross-country 3-tiered structure consisting of an underground tunnel with a canal continuously filled by Global Warming oceans' overflow, a single rail sled, and an above-ground walkway. In peace, the canal would water parched land to produce food for the country's food banks. Unfortunately, the labor to build the structure was a resentful workforce with revenge on their minds. The construction crews were littered with saboteurs who were mixing a "crumble chemical" into the building material such that the wall structure would dissolve not long after it was completed. The enemy's ultimate goal was to control the Western Hemisphere. First, they had to take over the U.S. who was the only country strong enough to stop them.In retrospect, two years earlier a suspicious killer virus struck the U.S. murdering thousands in a poor attempt to wipe-out Americans. But a CDC vaccine diluted the anemic disease from its purpose. It was a strange event that surfaced many questions about where it began and the human condition that started it. But the plan needed to be swift, thorough, and safe from self-inflicting harm and malicious discovery. The enemy's combined forces remained mysterious. The fighting force known as the Western Hemisphere Armed Forces (WHAF) had yet to invade the U. S. Aside from gaining residence and familiarity with our land, they worked at gaining the Americans' trust. but their The infiltrator segment adjusted well to our lifestyles socializing with our families and friends in plain sight.Quite by accident, I came to possess a cryptic map with the shape of the United States drawn on it - a left-hand overlay was sketched over the U. S. - the map resembled a marijuana leaf. Without any of the lines labeled, nothing I looked at made sense. When I learned the man, who slid the map to me, as he was being dragged from a barroom, paid for it with his life, I was convinced the drawing was tied to the massacre in some way.Before the Americans could regroup into what was left of their powerful fighting force, the WHAF attacked by landing on the California coast. They took no prisoners, except the ones they needed. All foreign survivors had the back of their right hand unmistakably tattooed with the date they were captured. Most were deported, while others were kept in labor camps to work on the country's infrastructure destruction. A few escaped never to be seen again.
