Sottotitolo: Storia breve dei leghisti di Sicilia.Sono qui raccolti una serie di testi pubblicati in rete nel corso del 2019. E il frutto di un breve ma intenso viaggio tra i militanti e i quadri leghisti in Sicilia. Sono documentate le conseguenze del commissariamento ossia la distruzione di ogni reale rappresentanza del territorio e di qualsivoglia azione politica degna di questo nome; verificata la mancanza di spazi per un confronto costruttivo, ecco arrivare ben presto la rottura insanabile della collaborazione con il partito. In seguito, e comunque proseguita l'attenzione verso quel fenomeno sociopolitico che stava continuando nella sua parabolica traiettoria fino agli appuntamenti elettorali delle amministrative siciliane - aprile 2019 - e delle europee un mese piu tardi. Accanto ai fatti di dominio pubblico si troveranno qui alcuni retroscena interni, in un quadro articolato di quanto si e avuto modo di osservare e valutare cammin facendo e che viene offerto alla futura memoria degli annali politici.

Private Lending in China

Private Lending in China

Lerong Lu

Routledge
2021
nidottu
This book explores China’s private lending market from historical, economic, legal, and regulatory perspectives. Private lending refers to moneylending agreements between business borrowers and their debt investors without the involvement of banks. In China, it remains difficult for private entrepreneurs to obtain sufficient loans from state-owned banks. Thus, private lending has been a vital alternative financing channel for over 80 million businesses which are reliant on private funds as their major source of operating capital. The market volume of private financing stands at 5 trillion yuan ($783bn), making it one of the largest shadow banking systems in the world. Despite the wide popularity and systemic importance of private lending activities, they have remained outside of the official regulatory framework, leading to extra financial risks. In 2011, China’s private lending sector encountered a severe financial crisis, as thousands of business borrowers failed to repay debts and fell into bankruptcy. Lots of bosses who found it impossible to liquidate debts ran away to hide from creditors. The financial turmoil has caused substantial monetary losses for investors across the country, which triggered social unrest and undermined the financial stability.This book is a timely work intended to demystify China’s private lending market by investigating its historical development, operating mechanism, and special characteristics. It evaluates the causes and effects of the latest financial crisis by considering a number of real cases relating to helpless investors and runaway bosses. It conducts an in-depth doctrinal analysis of Chinese laws and regulations regarding private lending transactions. It also examines China’s ongoing financial reform to bring underground lending activities under official supervision. Finally, the book points out future development paths for the private lending market. It offers suggestions for global policymakers devising an effective regulatory framework for shadow banking. It appeals to researchers, lecturers, and students in several fields, including law, business, finance, political economy, public policy, and China study.

Sand In Our Souls

Sand In Our Souls

Leone Huntsman

Melbourne University Press
2001
pokkari
Images of the beach pervade Australian popular culture. But the deeper significance of the experience of the beach, and its influence on Australian culture generally, has not yet been seriously explored. How, why and when did the beach become part of the Australian way of life? This work describes the forces and pressures that encouraged or impeded Australian's enjoyment of sand and surf. The ways in which artists, writers, film-makers and the advertising industry have depicted the beach are examined for the light they throw on the beach's significance. The arguments should stimulate debate on the concept of ""national identity"" appropriate for a new Australian century, and promote a deeper understanding of an aspect of life in Australia that is cherished by many of those who live there.

The Autobiography of a Seventeenth-Century Venetian Rabbi

The Autobiography of a Seventeenth-Century Venetian Rabbi

Leone Modena

Princeton University Press
1988
pokkari
Leon (Judah Aryeh) Modena was a major intellectual figure of the early modern Italian Jewish community--a complex and intriguing personality who was famous among contemporary European Christians as well as Jews. Modena (1571-1648) produced an autobiography that documents in poignant detail the turbulent life of his family in the Jewish ghetto of Venice. The text of this work is well known to Jewish scholars but has never before been translated from the original Hebrew, except in brief excerpts. This complete translation, based on Modena's autograph manuscript, makes available in English a wealth of historical material about Jewish family life of the period, religion in daily life, the plague of 1630-1631, crime and punishment, the influence of kabbalistic mysticism, and a host of other subjects. The translator, Mark R. Cohen, and four other distinguished scholars add commentary that places the work in historical and literary context. Modena describes his fascination with the astrology and alchemy that were important parts of the Jewish and general culture of the seventeenth century. He also portrays his struggle against poverty and against compulsive gambling, which, cleverly punning on a biblical verse, he called the "sin of Judah." In addition, the book contains accounts of Modena's sorrow over his three sons: the death of the eldest from the poisonous fumes of his own alchemical laboratory, the brutal murder of the youngest, and the exile of the remaining son. The introductory essay by Mark R. Cohen and Theodore K. Rabb highlights the significance of the work for early modern Jewish and general European history. Howard E. Adelman presents an up-to-date biographical sketch of the author and points the way toward a new assessment of his place in Jewish history. Natalie Z. Davis places Modena's work in the context of European autobiography, both Christian and Jewish, and especially explores the implications of the Jewish status as outsider for the privileged exploration of the self. A set of historical notes, compiled by Howard Adelman and Benjamin C. I. Ravid, elucidates the text.

Two powerful and controversial novellas comprise this ironically-titled book, in which very bizarre mother- child relationships are explored.The characters in MOTHER'S DAY all believe that perfection is possible, that destiny can be controlled, that disorder can be kept at bay, and that actions occur without consequences.MOTHER'S DAY is disturbing and disconcerting; its uncluttered and direct style adds to its rawness. The writing is individual and makes for gripping reading. It makes us examine our lives to see how far we manage to keep disorder at bay by ignoring it. And it makes us wonder how narrowly we have escaped fates similar to theirs.This is LEONE SPERLING'S second book, originally published in 1984. Her first book, COINS FOR THE FERRYMAN was published by Pan Books (Australia) in 1981.
