The Patriot Revolution, 1780-1787
Authors: Israel Jonathan 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
On the morning of 26 September 1781, copies of a revolutionary booklet entitled Aan het Volk van Nederland (To the People of the Nether lands), published anonymously but written by Baron van der Capellen, were found posted up, and strewn, all over the Republic. Its political message was uncompromising. There had been a time, before the coming of the Habsburgs, when the Dutch people had enjoyed a high level of civil liberty and political freedom, being able to hold the rulers of the different provinces in check by means of the colleges of sworn representatives of the citizenry, the militias, and the influence of the guilds. The basis of this inestimable ‘freedom’ had been the unrestricted right of the citizenry to gather, organize, form committees, choose representatives, and express their views. The people had been stripped of their freedom by Charles V and, especially, Philip II. But the Revolt of 1572 had failed to restore their ‘freedom’.1 Although the quest to regain it had provided the essential impulse behind the Revolt against Philip II and the power of Spain, and there was much that was inspiring in it, from the people’s point of view it had ended in failure. Popular participation in civic and provincial government, momentarily revived by the citizens’ guilds and militias, had been suppressed once more by William the Silent and the regents.
Independence by Degrees 1945-1960
Authors: Lloyd T O 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
At the end of the Second World War Britain’s armed forces were larger than ever and were spread over an immense sweep of territory, and her prestige as one of the three leading victorious countries was very high. On the other hand, her two main allies agreed with each other that the British Empire ought to be reduced in size or ended as soon as possible, the Dominions had become more conscious of their position as independent states, and nationalist feeling in the colonies had become more firmly established during the war. The British had no desire to conduct a last-ditch struggle against the forces of change. It had become fairly clear during the war that arrangements would have to be made for India to become independent on the war was over, and this was done. At the eastern end of the Mediterranean, the only formal abandonment of an imperial possession was the ending of the Palestine mandate, but at much the same time the British were with¬ drawing from Greece, leaving the defence of Turkey to the United States, and dismantling their informal hold on Egypt.
Kingship and government
Authors: Goodman Anthony 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Environmental factors inﬂuenced the efficacy of governments and the character of political cultures. The power structures which existed in 1300 were shaken up by the economic and social eﬀects of climatic deterioration, the pandemics of 1348–9, 1361, and 1379, and the persisting low levels of population in the ﬁfteenth century until its last decades.
The Churches and Peoples of the Three Kingdoms, 1603 – 1641
Authors: McCafferty John 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
The first two Stuart rulers of all Britain and Ireland were faced with many challenges arising from the quite different, but interlocking, pasts of both islands. The varieties of Christianity practised by their subjects presented particularly delicate and potentially, and sometimes actually, explosive problems of government. In Scotland, James VI and I faced and had faced a Reformation worked out while he was a child. It had been achieved without the crown and often against it. In England and Wales he faced a reformed church settled and, to some degree, fine-tuned by the dead queen. In Ireland there were not one but two church settlements. One had been exported there by his Tudor predecessors
Introduction
Authors: Burk Kathleen 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Compared with the first half of the twentieth century, the second half can seem pretty tame. The Korean War (1950–1), Falklands War (1982), and Gulf War (1990–1), while critical in their time, were not remotely on the scale of the two world wars. The interwar Depression was of a different order of magnitude from the recession of the 1980s. Distance, in time as in place, lends romance.
Animal Sociology and a Natural Economy of the Body Politic, Part 11: The Past Is the Contested Zone
Authors: Haraway Donna 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Primatology has focused on two major themes in interpreting the significance of animals for understanding human life-sex and economics, reproduction and production. The crucial transitions from natural to political economy and from biological social groups to the order of human kinship categories and systems of exchange have been basic concerns. These are old questions with complex relations to technical and ideological dimensions of biosocial science. Our understandings of both reproduction and production have double-edged possibilities. On one hand, we may reinforce our vision of the natural and cultural necessity of domination; on the other, we may learn to practise our sciences so as to show more clearly the now fragmentary possibilities of producing and reproducing our lives without overwhelming reliance on the theoretical categories and concrete practices of control and enmity.
Body, Bias, and Behaviour: A Comparative Analysis of Reasoning in Two Areas of Biological Science
Authors: Longino Helen E , Doell Ruth 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Our intention in this essay is to bring to light the variety in the ways masculine bias can express itself in the content and processes of scientific research. The discussion focuses on the two areas of evolutionary studies and endocrinological research into behavioural sex differences. Although both have attempted to construe the relation between sex and gender, the forms of these disciplines differ from one another in significant respects. Examining them together should lead to a broader, more subtle understanding of how allegedly extra-scientific considerations shape scientific inquiry.
Language and Ideology in Evolutionary Theory: Reading Cultural Norms into Natural Law
Authors: Keller Evelyn Fox 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
In the mid-twentieth century, biology became a ‘mature science’, that is, it succeeded, finally, in breaking through the formidable barrier of ‘life’ that had heretofore precluded it from fully joining the mechanico-reductive tradition of the physical sciences. For the first time in history, the ‘secret of life’ could credibly be claimed to have been solved. Living beings—presumably including man along with the rest of the animal kingdom—came to be understood as (mere) chemical machines.
Live Sex Acts (Parental Advisory: Explicit Material)
Authors: Berlant Lauren 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
I am a citizen of the United States, and in this country where I live, every year millions of pictures are being made of women with our legs spread. We are called beaver, we are called pussy, our genitals are tied up, they are pasted, makeup is put on them to make them pop out of a page at a male viewer.... I live in a country where if you film any act of humiliation or torture, and if the victim is a woman, the film is both entertainment and it is protected speech. Now that tells me something about being a woman in this country.
Forecasting, Aggregation, and Nonsymmetry
Authors: Granger Clive W J , Teräsvirta Timo 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
In this chapter three separate but important topics are discussed. One of the major uses for time-series models is to produce forecasts and nonlinear models have particular difficulties in doing this, especially for several steps ahead. Alternative ways of producing multi-step forecasts are discussed and the possibility of combining forecasts is also considered.
Misspecification versus bubbles in the Cagan hyperinflation model
Authors: Durlauf Steven N , Hooker Mark A 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Most test for rational bubbles using Cagan‘s hyperinflation model under rational expectations assume that the model is correctly specified. Rejections of the model are consequently treated as evidence of bubbles. This paper shows that it is possible to test model specification separately from the presence of bubbles. We provide a general framework for identifying all testable implications of the null hypothesis that the model is correctly specified as well as all implications of the null hypothesis that a given price sequence is a bubble-free realisation of the model. We find that in the German hyperinflation, empirical deviations from the fundamental price solution are primarily due to misspecification rather than bubbles, conditional on the same identification restrictions used in the parametric bubble-testing literature. Our analysis potentially reconciles some contradictory results in the literature.
Regime switching with time-varying transition probabilities
Authors: Diebold Francis X , Lee Joon-Haeng , Weinbach Gretchen C 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
The Markov switching model is useful because of the potential it offers for capturing occasional but recurrent regime shifts in a simple dynamic econometric model. Existing treatments, however, restrict the transition probabilities to be constant over time; that is, the probability of switching from one regime to the other cannot depend on the behaviour of underlying economic fundamentals. In contrast, we propose a class of Markov switching models in which the transition probabilities can vary with fundamentals. We develop an EM algorithm for estimation of the model and we illustrate it with a simulation example. We conclude with a discussion of directions for future research, including application to exchange rate and business cycle modelling.
Demarginalizing the Intersection of Race and Sex: A Black Feminist Critique of Antidiscrimination Doctrine, Feminist Theory, and Antiracist Politics
Authors: Crenshaw Kimberle 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
One of the very few Black women’s studies books is entitled All the Women Are White, All the Blacks Are Men, But Some of Us are Brave. I have chosen this title as a point of departure in my efforts to develop a Black feminist criticism2 because it sets forth a problematic consequence of the tendency to treat race and gender as mutually exclusive categories of experience and analysis. In this talk, I want to examine how this tendency is perpetuated by a single-axis framework that is dominant in antidiscrimination law and that is also reflected in feminist theory and antiracist politics.
The Social Construction of Black Feminist Thought
Authors: Collins Patricia Hill 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Sojourner Truth, Anna Julia Cooper, Ida Wells Barnett, and Fannie Lou Hamer are but a few names from a growing list of distinguished African-American women activists. Although their sustained resistance to Black women’s victimization within interlocking systems of race, gender, and class oppression is well known, these women did not act alone. Their actions were nurtured by the support of countless, ordinary African-American women who, through strategies of everyday resistance, created a powerful foundation for this more visible Black feminist activist tradition. Such support has been essential to the shape and goals of Black feminist thought.
Genealogies, Legacies, Movements
Authors: Alexander M Jacqui , Mohanty Chandra Talpade 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
We both came to feminist studies in the US academy through a series of geographical, political, and intellectual dislocations. Our journeys were marked by an educational process in which anticolonial struggle against the British (in Trinidad and Tobago and India) and the founding of the nation-state infused the fabric of everyday life.
General Introduction
Authors: Soskice Janet Martin 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
This collection has been assembled with two readerships especially in mind: first, those with a prior interest in theology and in feminist theology and, second, those interested in feminism who, seeing a book in this series on Feminism and Theology, may wish to pause to make themselves better acquainted. Since we have presumed little previous acquaintance with the literature, this collection can serve as an introduction for those in search of one; we hope, though, that even veterans in the field will find something new here.
On Being a Woman: Thailand
Authors: Mochai Benjaporn 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
First, let me tell you something about myself. I was born to a poor family in Isan (Northeast Thailand). My family was not happy when I was born because, not unlike to many families in the Northeast, a baby girl is not welcome. As someone told my mother: “To have a daughter is like having a toilet in front of your house.” A girl leaves and “des troys” her family. Eventually, when she gets married, she loses her last name. When I was a little girl, I wanted to be a real woman because as a child I was a tomboy.
The Sacrifice of Sarah
Authors: Trible Phyllis 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Phyllis Trible’s Cod and the Rhetoric of Sexuality is a strong contender for the book most often described in citations as ‘groundbreaking’. Reproduced below is the second half of an article in which Trible managed to break ground with one of the most extensively analysed texts in the Hebrew Bible: the sacrifice, or binding, of Isaac in Genesis 22. The first half of the article, in common with the vast majority of exegesis that came before it, focuses on Abraham (the tested) and Isaac (the bound or sacrificed). Trible conducts a close reading that develops the themes of attachment (Abraham and his beloved son Isaac go together up Mount Moriah), detachment (Abraham is willing to raise the knife), and non-attachment (though Abraham had expected to return to his two servants with Isaac, he returns alone).
Towards Inclusive Worship
Authors: Adler Rachel 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Jewish liturgy consists in large measure of biblical citations creatively interwoven with rabbinic texts. Even in non-Orthodox circles, liturgy is remarkably resistant to change; most Jews think their childhood melodies to particular prayers-let alone the words-were given on Sinai! Traditionally, there has been little scope for innovation or variety. Jewish services are repeated prayer by prayer, week after week, and regular ‘daweners’ (worshippers) find comfort and pleasure in familiarity. Not surprisingly, the unchanging nature of Jewish liturgy poses problems for many feminists.
Contours of a Queer Theology
Authors: Jantzen Grace M 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Or should that be, ‘queer contours of theology’? My intention in this paper is certainly not an attempt to fix theological boundaries or positions, even if queer ones, or to generate a queer creed. Rather, I wish to begin an exploration of how queer thinking can be theologic ally creative, offering some suggestions towards a theology that gets rid of the straight and narrow boundaries of traditional christendom and is open to difference, fluidity, curvature.
The Mirror of Pornography
Authors: Brown Wendy 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
This effort to apprehend the rhetorical power of Catharine MacKinnon’ s social theory of gender is compelled by an aim that exceeds critique of her depiction of women as always and only sexually violable, her pornography politics, or her arguments about the First Amendment. Insofar as MacKinnon’s work has extraordinary political purchase, this essay seeks to discern something of the composition and constituency of this power in her theoretical project. How and why does MacKinnon’s complicatedly radical political analysis and voice acquire such hold? And what are the possibilities that other feminisms could rival such power with analyses more multivalent in their representation of gender subordination and gender construction, more attentive to the race and class of gender, more compatible with the rich diversity of female sexual experience,
The Colonial Harem: Images of a Suberoticism
Authors: Alloula Malek 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
We have here the equivalent of an anthology of breasts. And an anthology aims at exhaustive coverage, so the viewer gets to know a large variety of bosoms: first the Beduin, then the Kabyl, then the ‘Uled-Nayl, and so on. There emerges from this anthology a sort of half-aesthetic concept: the Moorish bosom, the exclusive property of the exotic postcard, which sets down its canon. Generally topped off with a smiling or dreamy face, this Moorish bosom, which expresses an obvious invitation, will travel from hand to hand to reach its destination. All along the trajectory, from sender to addressee, it will be offered to view, without any envelope to ensure the intimacy of a private correspondence.1 Even after its arrival, it will be solicited whenever the colony and its indiscreet charms are evoked.
Tambien Somos Mujeres: We Are Women, Too—Cuban Prostitutes after the Revolution
Authors: Ortiz Victoria 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
When 1959 dawned in Cuba, the brand-new revolution faced an almost overwhelming array of social, economic, and political problems, both internal and external. Emerging from a long history as a colony first of Spain and then—virtually—of the United States, Cuba appeared ill-equipped to resolve the difficulties involved in rising out of the oppression and exploitation of centuries. In fact, a multipronged approach to tackling the curing of ingrained and seemingly immutable social ills led the small island nation to achieve a degree of broad communal change that has been internationally hailed and often cited by the United Nations and non-governmental organizations as a model for planned social reform.
Seducing Women into ‘a Lifestyle of Vaginal Fisting’: Lesbian Sex Gets Virtually Dangerous
Authors: Hollibaugh Amber 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Reverend Louis Sheldon, Director, Family Values Coalition, on 28 March 1994, discussing the Safer Sex Handbook for Lesbians, produced by the Lesbian AIDS Project of Gay Men’s Health Crisis and available at a youth peer educators’ conference held in New York City: This is it. I’m sorry, I thought you’d seen it. Is this your first time for—it’s wild. I mean it’s absolutely, it’s so grotesque, it’s so vulgar, it is so obscene that when I first saw it, I had to put it down. I couldn’t look at it because it’s pornography.
Lovers and Workers: Screening the Body in Post-Communist Hungarian Cinema
Authors: Portuges Catherine 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Eastern Europe’s emergence from its Stalinist past is dramatically inscribed in the politics of its recent cinema. Relegated to a secondary status in favor of more pressing economic priorities, filmmakers accustomed to the security of a state-supported industry now find themselves competing for scarce resources in the midst of accusations of complicity with and defenses of opposition to former regimes. In Hungary as elsewhere, cinema continues nonetheless to play a vital role as public forum for the ongoing reassessment of the nation’s political past. Yet despite-or perhaps on account of-the transformations that have overtaken East-Central Europe, there persists in Hungarian cinema a lingering double vision, a depressive symptom of the profound alienation that is a legacy of the post-totalitarian psyche.
‘Holy Liberty’: The Establishment of a Political Tradition,I494—I498
Authors: Polizzotto Lorenzo 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
The Savonarolan movement was born of a conflict that had its immediate origins in the collapse of Medici power in November 1494. The expulsion of the Medici released latent social, political, and religious rivalries which it proved impossible to resolve. Despite his and his followers’ claims, Savonarola’s intervention in politics was in the long run to harden divisions and to embitter the rivalries amongst the Florentines. There is no doubt that, as contemporary observers were already noting, Savonarola’s personality together with his and his followers’ propensity to justify on religious grounds even the most expedient political acts, accounted in part for the ensuing escalation of the conflict; but only in part. For both the conflict and the increasingly disruptive polarization of the Florentine polity had their origins in widely divergent views on the nature of politics and on the scope of political action which predated Savonarola and the events of 1494. If at first, for a variety of reasons, these political principles remained in the background, with the passage of time and with the emergence of cohesive and active political groupings, they were thrust to the fore, becoming in the process more sharply defined.
Introduction to International
Copyright and Neighbouring Rights law
Authors: Lewinski Silke von 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
What is international law and why is it needed at all in the field of copyright and neighbouring rights law? The answers to these questions are essential for under standing the fundamentals of international copyright and neighbouring rights law. First, the notion of ‘international law’ is often misconceived as referring to foreign, national laws or to comparative law. As the Latin origin of the word reveals, however, international law refers to the law governing relations inter nationes, ie between nation-states—it refers to the regulation of relationships between states.1 This traditional concept has been modernized to also include ‘the conduct of states and of international organisations and . . . their relations inter se as well as . . . some of their relations with persons, whether natural or juridical’.2 In the field of copyright and neighbouring rights law, the most import ant rules of international law are those regarding the law of treaties, which addresses in particular treaty-making, application, revision, and interpretation (see Chapters 8 and 7) and the relationship between different treaties that cover the same or similar subject matter (see Chapter 24).
The Inclusion of Copyright and Neighbouring Rights in the Gatt/WTO
Authors: Lewinski Silke von 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
Historical background The GATT is one of several international instruments aimed at avoiding the mistakes that led to the world economic crisis in the 1930s. In 1930, the USA, followed by another twenty-five countries, increased their tariffs by about 60 per cent on the basis of the Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act. As a consequence, world trade decreased by two-thirds. The resulting world economic crisis, which was worse than any before, was also considered one of several reasons for the emergence of totalitarian systems in Europe and for the Second World War. Against the background of these experiences, the founders of the GATT sought to prevent any protectionism and closed national economies; instead, the liberalization of trade, in particular by abolishing or reducing tariffs and by unhampered competition on the world markets, was viewed as crucial means for worldwide prosperity, full employment, and healthy economies—and, as a consequence, as a guarantee for peace.
The WIPO Development Agenda
Authors: Lewinski Silke von 
Published: October 2023

Abstract
General politics increasingly influence the expert bodies of international entities, such as the Specialized UN Agency WIPO. One major, recent political movement aims at generally strengthening developing and least developed countries (LDCs)—an approach considered necessary not least in order to diminish the negative consequences of globalization in these countries. Notably, in September 2000 the General Assembly of the UN adopted the United Nations Millennium Declaration, which contains eight millennium development goals to improve the situation in developing countries and LDCs. Many other actions, declarations, and developments towards such improvements followed in this and other international organizations; for example, the current WTO Doha Round adopted the ‘Doha Development Agenda’ in November 2001; and the World Summit on the Information Society addressed the so-called ‘digital divide’ and similar issues.
