description: The premelting plays an important role in ice growth, but there is a significant gap in our knowledge between the atomistic premelting surface structure and the macroscopic growth mechanism. In this work, using large-scale molecular dynamics simulation, we reveal the existence of clusters on premelting surface, as an intermediate feature bridging the gap. We show the spontaneous formation and evolution of clusters, and they form a stable distribution determined by the growth rate. We demonstrate how this stable distribution is related to the growth mode of ice, connected by the growth of clusters. We come to a bilayer-by-bilayer growth mode under simulation-reachable high growth rates, but another mechanism, namely "cluster stacking", is speculated to exist at lower growth rates. Our work builds a connection between the microscopic structure of premelting layer and the macroscopic growth of ice, making a step forward to the full understanding of premelting and ice growth.

description: Al giorno d'oggi, la maggior parte dei gruppi di ricerca in campo umanistico e nelle scienze sociali si occupano, in un modo o nell'altro, del tema delle donne e del femminile, o, in un senso più ampio, di tematiche di genere. Le questioni sollevate dal movimento femminista nell'ultima parte del XX secolo sembrano aver convinto un certo numero di ricercatori - sia uomini che donne - della necessità di raccontare sia l'azione delle donne - come accade per gli uomini - sia il modo in cui le società del passato hanno usato le categorie di maschile e femminile. L'articolo si propone di riflettere - sia a livello storico che tematico - sul modo in cui queste questioni sono state incorporate negli studi sulla Grecia classica. [...] In seguito, lo studio esamina il modo in cui il genere è stato usato sia da donne che da uomini nella loro ricerca [...]. La differenza sessuale è diventata l'oggetto di studio e il suo significato simbolico è stato politicizzato: tale differenza, è stato detto, ha indicato la divisione, una divisione vista come basilare, dal momento che il conflitto stesso è stato pensato come incarnazione del politico (Nicole Loraux). In questo modo il genere, usato come strumento concettuale che mira ad allontanarsi da una storia delle donne considerata troppo ingenua rispetto a quella derivata dalle società antiche, sotto questo punto di vista ha aiutato a consolidare l'idea, senza dubbio più contemporanea, che gli uomini e le donne formino gruppi che sono sempre distinti, opposti l'un l'altro così come le categorie grammaticali del maschile e del femminile.

description: In this work, we construct a non-commutative (NC) gauge theory of gravity for any metric with spherical symmetries, where we use a non-diagonal tetrad field. The deformed gauge potentials (tetrad fields) and the components of deformed metric are computed to the second order in the NC parameter $Θ^{μν}$, as the application to the Schwarzschild black hole we show that the NC geometry removes the singularity at the origin of the black hole, and increase the event horizon. The non-commutativity correction to the effective potential of the Schwarzschild metric is also computed and we show how this geometry affects the stability condition which it found the NC parameter plays the same role as the mass that can be used to explain the dark matter and we show that the NC Schwarzschild space-time has new stable circular orbits appear near the event horizon that is not allowed by Schwarzschild space-time. The geodesic equations in the NC space and the corrections to the periastron advance in terms of $Θ$ are obtained. We have also specified the problem of Mercury's perihelion and used the experimental data to estimate the NC parameter $Θ$, then we show that $Θ$ of the order $10^{-25}s.kg^{-1}$ gives observable corrections to the movement at a large scale. We show that the NC propriety of the spacetime appears at the High Energy.

Seismic constraints on magnetic fields inside stars
Creators: name: Deheuvels, Sébastien
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: All observational constraints on the internal rotation of stars consistently point to the existence of a missing ingredient in our modeling of angular momentum transport inside stars. Magnetic fields are one of the most serious candidates to produce this additional transport. The recent seismic detection of magnetic fields in the cores of red giants has opened new avenuesto make progress on this important question. The suppression of non-radial modes in a subclass of red giants and in a main-sequence B star has also been interpreted as the potential consequence of strong internal magnetic fields. In this presentation, I will review the seismic methods that have now been explored to reveal magnetic fields in stellar interiors. I will present the constraints that were obtained on the strengths and topologies of these fields, putting the emphasis on the efforts that are still needed to construct an exhaustive catalog of magnetic red giants. Finally, I will briefly touch on how these measurements compare with the few predictions available so far on magnetic angular momentum transport in stars.

description: We consider thermalization of a microscopic quantum system by interaction with a thermal bath. Our interest is the minimal size the bath can have while still being able to thermalize the system. Within a specific thermalization scheme we show that a single spin-1/2 can be fully thermalized by interaction with a bath that consists of just two other spin-1/2. The two bath spins are initially in a pure, entangled state, and the thermalizing interaction is a Heisenberg exchange-interaction of the system-spin with one of the bath spins. The time dependent coupling strength has to obey a single integral constraint. We also present a simple generalization of this minimal model in which the bath consists of an arbitrary number of spin-1/2 pairs.

description: This work gives a blind beamforming strategy for intelligent reflecting surface (IRS), aiming to boost the received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) by coordinating phase shifts across reflective elements in the absence of channel information. While the existing methods of IRS beamforming typically first estimate channels and then optimize phase shifts, we propose a conditional sample mean based statistical approach that explores the wireless environment via random sampling without performing any channel estimation. Remarkably, the new method just requires a polynomial number of random samples to yield an SNR boost that is quadratic in the number of reflective elements, whereas the standard random-max sampling algorithm can only achieve a linear boost under the same condition. Moreover, we gain additional insight into blind beamforming by interpreting it as a least squares problem. Field tests demonstrate the significant advantages of the proposed blind beamforming algorithm over the benchmark algorithms in enhancing wireless transmission.

description: In the context of high-energy physics, a reliable description of the parton-level kinematics plays a crucial role for understanding the internal structure of hadrons and improving the precision of the calculations. Here, we study the production of one hadron and a direct photon, including up to Next-to-Leading Order Quantum Chromodynamics and Leading-Order Quantum Electrodynamics corrections. Using a code based on Monte-Carlo integration, we simulate the collisions and analyze the events to determine the correlations among measurable and partonic quantities. Then, we use these results to feed three different Machine Learning algorithms that allow us to find the momentum fractions of the partons involved in the process, in terms of suitable combinations of the final state momenta. Our results are compatible with previous findings and suggest a powerful application of Machine-Learning to model high-energy collisions at the partonic-level with high-precision.

Organisationsstrukturen, die reale Einkommenssituation, Aufstiegswünsche und -möglichkeiten, aber auch Rollenbilder und Identitätskonstruktionen führen schliesslich dazu, dass schweizweit 8% der Väter (gegenüber 61% der Mütter) mit Kindern unter 15 Jahren Teilzeit arbeiten.

Eine bessere Vereinbarkeit von Familie Beruf und Freizeit bietet viele Chancen, nicht nur für die einzelnen, sondern auch für das Unternehmen. Gleichzeitig sind aber auch die Risiken transparent aufzuzeigen und bei der Gestaltung der Arbeitsverhältnisse zu beachten.

Für die Führungspersonen in den Unternehmen geht es zunehmend darum, qualifizierte Mitarbeitende längerfristig an die Organisation zu binden und somit deren Bedürfnisse mit den Möglichkeiten der Organisation aufeinander abzustimmen.

description: In her groundbreaking book The Divided City Nicole Loraux argued that the most characteristic element of the ‘Athenian politicalʼ (an maybe of the whole Ancient ‘political ʼ) was the volontary forgetting of conflict. By a series of means, Athenian authors relegated the civil stife either to the legendary past of the city (before the birth of the community) or to foreign cities (i.e Thebes). Loraux’s reading of Greek political experience seems to suggest that, on the contrary, the origins of political modernity – from Machiavelli to Hobbes – have to do precisely with the remebrance of the conflictual essence of collective life.

Asymptotics of the critical time in Wiener sausage percolation with a small radius

description: We consider a continuum percolation model on $\R^d$, where $d\geq 4$.The occupied set is given by the union of independent Wiener sausages with radius $r$ running up to time $t$ and whoseinitial points are distributed according to a homogeneous Poisson point process.It was established in a previous work by Erhard, Martínez and Poisat~\cite{EMP13} that (1) if $r$ is small enough there is a non-trivial percolation transitionin $t$ occuring at a critical time $t\_c(r)$ and (2) in the supercritical regime the unbounded cluster is unique. In this paper we investigate the asymptotic behaviour of the critical time when the radius $r$ converges to $0$. The latter does not seem to be deducible from simple scaling arguments. We prove that for $d\geq 4$, there is a positive constant $c$ such that$c^{-1}\sqrt{\log(1/r)}\leq t\_c(r)\leq c\sqrt{\log(1/r)}$ when $d=4$ and $c^{-1}r^{(4-d)/2}\leq t\_c(r) \leq c\ r^{(4-d)/2}$ when $d\geq 5$, as $r$ converges to $0$. We derive along the way moment estimates on the capacity of Wiener sausages, which may be of independent interest.

description: We present a theoretical study of the optical conductivity of graphene with magnetic and nonmagnetic adatoms. First, by introducing alternating potential in a pure graphene, we demonstrate a gap formation in the density of states and the corresponding optical conductivity. We highlight the distinction between such a gap formation and the so-called Pauli blocking effect. Next, we apply this idea to graphene with adatoms by introducing magnetic interactions between the carrier spins and the spins of the adatoms. Exploring various possible ground-state spin configurations of the adatoms, we find that antiferromagnetic configuration yields the lowest total electronic energy, and is the only configuration that forms a gap. Furthermore, we analyze four different circumstances leading to similar gaplike structures and propose a means to interpret the magneticity and the possible orderings of the adatoms on graphene solely from the optical conductivity data. We apply this analysis to the recently reported experimental data of oxygenated graphene.

description: Motivated by recent progress in the superconductivity nonreciprocal phenomena, we study the general theory of Josephson diodes. The central ingredient for Josephson diodes is the asymmetric proximity process inside the tunneling barrier. From the symmetry breaking point of view, there are two types of Josephson diodes, inversion breaking and time-reversal breaking. For the inversion breaking case, applying voltage bias could effectively tune the proximity process like the voltage-dependent Rashba coupling or electric polarization giving rise to $I_c(V)\neq I_c(-V)$ and $I_{r+}\neq I_{r-}$. For the time-reversal breaking case, the current flow could adjust the internal time-reversal breaking field like magnetism or time-reversal breaking electron-electron pairing, which leads to $I_{c+}\neq I_{c-}$. All these results provide a complete understanding and the general principles of realizing Josephson diodes, especially the recently found NbSe$_2$/Nb$_3$Br$_8$/NbSe$_2$ Josephson diodes.

description: The equation for canonical gravity produced by Wheeler and DeWitt in the late 1960s still presents difficulties both in terms of its mathematical solution and its physical interpretation. One of these issues is, notoriously, the absence of an explicit time. In this short note, we suggest one simple and straightforward way to avoid this occurrence. We go back to the classical equation that inspired Wheeler and DeWitt (namely, the Hamilton--Jacobi--Einstein equation) and make explicit, before quantization, the presence of a known, classically meaningful notion of time. We do this by allowing Hamilton's principal function to be explicitly dependent on this time locally. This choice results in a Wheeler--DeWitt equation with time. A working solution for the de Sitter minisuperspace is shown.

description: The expansion of the Universe is observed to be accelerating, with the simplest solution being a classical cosmological constant. However, this receives contributions from the quantum vacuum, which are predicted to be many orders of magnitude larger than observations, and suffers from radiative instabilities requiring repeated fine tuning. In this paper we present a minimal, self tuning scalar field model that can dynamically cancel a large quantum vacuum energy, avoiding Weinberg's No Go Theorem, and produce accelerated de Sitter expansion at a lower energy scale as a solution to the problem. Our minimal model, which contains a non canonical kinetic energy and a linear potential, belongs to the Kinetic Gravity Braiding subclass of Horndeski theory which is not observationally excluded, and lies outside of the known Fab Four or Well Tempered models. We find analytic solutions in the limits of slow roll and fast roll, and numerically solve the equations of motion to illustrate our model. We show that the model allows for a matter dominated era, and that the attractor solution is stable under a phase transition in the vacuum energy density. We also consider the energy scales required to match observations. Our model shows the existence of a wider class of successful self tuning models than previously assumed.

description: Das zwischen 1952 und 1958 entstandene Großprojekt der Wiener Stadthalle spielt nicht nur aufgrund seiner in der vorliegender Arbeit skizzierten Entstehungsumstände nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg eine große politische und gesellschaftliche Rolle, sondern stellt darüber hinaus auch baulich ein Objekt großer internationaler Strahlkraft innerhalb der österreichischen Nachkriegsarchitektur dar.Die Kontextualisierung innerhalb der Bauaufgabe Stadthalle sowie im internationalen Hallenbau der Nachkriegszeit veranschaulicht, dass der realisierte Entwurf des aus Kärnten stammenden Architekten Roland Rainer von einer neuen Architektursprache zeugt. Mit ihrer zum Gestaltungsmittel erhobenen Konstrution, ihrem Fokus auf funktionale Aspekte und der Bewahrung des menschlichen Maßstabs ist die Gestaltung einerseits für Rainers Œuvre charakteristisch, übte andererseits aber auch Einfluss auf den internationalen Hallenbau der Zeit aus.Durch die Aufarbeitung aller 14 beim internationalen Wettbewerb eingereichten Entwürfe kann die Sonderstellung, die Rainers Projekt konzeptionell und gestalterisch einnimmt, verdeutlicht werden.Eine Untersuchung der Vielzahl an Erweiterungsplanungen für den Wiener Stadthallenkomplex sowie weiterer Hallenprojekte illustriert, inwiefern die Wiener Stadthalle als Startpunkt grundlegender Gestaltungsprinzipien auch innerhalb Rainers architektonischen Schaffens als Schlüsselprojekt gesehen werden kann.
description: The Wiener Stadthalle, designed an built between 1952 and 1958, played a major political and social role after the Second World War due to the circumstances of the genesis outlined in the following work, whilst representing an object of great international appeal within Austrian post-war architecture.The contextualization within the evolution of civic hall buildings as well as in the international architecture of hall buildings of the post-war period illustrates that the implemented design by the Carinthian architect Roland Rainer testifies to a new architectural language. With its structure as an aesthetic design element, its focus on functional aspects and the consideration of human scale, the design is on the one hand characteristic of Rainer‘s oeuvre, on the other it also exerted an influence on the international hall design of the time.Through the processing of all 14 designs submitted to the international competition, the significant position Rainer‘s project occupies conceptually and creatively can be demonstrated.An examination of the large number of expansion plans for the Vienna Stadthalle complex – as well as other hall projects designed by Roland Rainer – illustrates to what extent the Viennese project can be considered an exemplar for fundamental design principles and a key project within Rainer‘s architectural work.

description: Einleitung: Diabetes mellitus Typ 2 Erkrankten wird häufig implizit vorgeworfen, sie seien selbst für ihre Erkrankung verantwortlich. Die vorliegende Arbeit hatte zum Ziel, der Verbreitung dieser Vorwürfe anhand zweier Fragestellungen auf den Grund zu gehen. Die erste Frage lautet: Inwiefern berücksichtigen ausgewählte Schweizer Krankenkassen den wissenschaftlichen Diskurs um die Ursache für eine Diabetes mellitus Typ 2 Erkrankung in den Dokumenten auf ihren Internetseiten? Die zweite Frage lautet: Welche sprachlichen Muster sind in den öffentlich zur Verfügung gestellten Dokumenten auf Internetseiten von Krankenkassen erkennbar?

Methode: Die Internetseiten von sechs Schweizer Krankenkassen wurden nach Dokumenten zum Thema Diabetes mellitus Typ 2 durchleuchtet. Anhand dem f4 Textanalyseprogramm wurde eine qualitative Dokumentenanalyse durchgeführt.

Ergebnisse:  Die sechs in die Analyse miteinbezogenen Krankenkassen unterscheiden sich untereinander bezüglich der Darstellung der Entstehungsursachen für einen Diabetes mellitus Typ 2 und der sprachlichen Muster recht stark. Als Entstehungsursache wird die Genetik viermal genannt, zehnmal nebenbei erwähnt und achtmal gar nicht angegeben. Bei der Sprache setzen CSS und Agrisano auf einen wissenschaftlichen und SWICA und Helsana auf einen Populär-Jargon.

Diskussion: Es wird darüber diskutiert, ob Krankenkassen bewusst auf gewisse sprachliche Muster setzen, ob sie am Wohl der Gesellschaft interessiert oder doch eher auf eigene Vorteile bedacht sind und ob Krankenkassen in die Pflicht zu nehmen sind, nur Informationsmaterialien zu veröffentlichen, die frei sind von Stigmatisierungen.
Fazit: Ob zwischen der überwiegenden Verwendung eines wissenschaftlichen Jargons und der Nennung der Genetik ein Kausalzusammenhang besteht, stellt eine mögliche weiterführende Untersuchungsmöglichkeit dar.

description: Im Vergleich zu früher haben Frauen heute bessere Chancen, in eine Führungsposition aufzusteigen. Wie sowohl schweizerische als auch weltweite Statistiken zeigen, sind sie jedoch auch schneller wieder weg als Männer. Die Ursachen dafür sind vielfältig: Freiwillige Austritte und verschiedene Alternativen für Frauen, aber auch unfreiwillige Austritte infolge von kürzerer Betriebszugehörigkeit oder von subtilen rollenspezifischen Zuschreibungsmechanismen führen im Endeffekt dazu, dass der Anteil von Frauen in Führungspositionen weit weniger stark zunimmt, als es aufgrund von Bildungsabschlüssen und Fähigkeiten zu erwarten wäre. Nicht zu vergessen ist, dass auch die Berufslaufbahn von Männern von geschlechtsspezifischen Rollenerwartungen geprägt und nicht immer freiwillig gewählt ist.

description: Death by suicide is the seventh leading death cause worldwide. The recent advancement in Artificial Intelligence (AI), specifically AI applications in image and voice processing, has created a promising opportunity to revolutionize suicide risk assessment. Subsequently, we have witnessed fast-growing literature of research that applies AI to extract audiovisual non-verbal cues for mental illness assessment. However, the majority of the recent works focus on depression, despite the evident difference between depression symptoms and suicidal behavior and non-verbal cues. This paper reviews recent works that study suicide ideation and suicide behavior detection through audiovisual feature analysis, mainly suicidal voice/speech acoustic features analysis and suicidal visual cues. Automatic suicide assessment is a promising research direction that is still in the early stages. Accordingly, there is a lack of large datasets that can be used to train machine learning and deep learning models proven to be effective in other, similar tasks.

BioExcel Webinar #49: Molecular movies made easy with Molywood (2020-10-22)
Creators: name: Miłosz Wieczór

description: Many of us know the frustrations of preparing a scientific video for your latest article or presentation. When you want to share a particular perspective on your molecular system, a single graphics often just doesn’t cut it, but movie making always seems to be that arduous task we start from scratch over and over again, involving complex combinations of graphics design, coding skills and interfacing between a number of existing tools. This webinar will introduce Molywood, a Python-based tool that intends to make movie-making fun and simple, shifting your focus from technical details to the creative process of designing a video. We introduced an intuitive syntax that lets you think in terms of actions and scenes, and made working with multiple panels or molecules feasible with little effort. Following the idea of making “easy things easy, and complex things possible”, the tool enables users to create an early draft in mere seconds, and then iterate the design to an arbitrary level to complexity, rendering the final result on an external machine if high quality is a must. We also provide a range of data visualization routines that can be used to augment the molecular picture with dynamically updated plots and graphs. On our website, the tool is complemented with installation instructions, a number of minimal examples, a gallery of highlights, and an extensive documentation including basic video tutorials.

description: Krein-Hermitian Hamiltonians, i.e., Hamiltonians Hermitian with respect to an indefinite inner product, have emerged as an important class of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians in physics, encompassing both single-particle bosonic Bogoliubov-de Gennes (BdG) Hamiltonians and so-called "$PT$-symmetric" non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. In particular, they have attracted considerable scrutiny owing to the recent surge in interest for boson topology. Motivated by these developments, we formulate a perturbative Krein-unitary Schrieffer-Wolff transformation for finite-size dynamically stable Krein-Hermitian Hamiltonians, yielding an effective Hamiltonian for a subspace of interest. The effective Hamiltonian is Krein Hermitian and, for sufficiently small perturbations, also dynamically stable. As an application, we use this transformation to justify codimension-based analyses of band touchings in bosonic BdG Hamiltonians, which complement topological characterization. We use this simple approach based on symmetry and codimension to revisit known topological magnon band touchings in several materials of recent interest.

description: Investigating principles for storage of quantum information at finite temperature with minimal need for active error correction is an active area of research. We bear upon this question in two-dimensional holographic conformal field theories via the quantum null energy condition (QNEC) that we have shown earlier to implement the restrictions imposed by quantum thermodynamics on such many-body systems. We study an explicit encoding of a logical qubit into two similar chirally propagating excitations of finite von-Neumann entropy on a finite temperature background whose erasure can be implemented by an appropriate inhomogeneous and instantaneous energy-momentum inflow from an infinite energy memoryless bath due to which the system transits to a thermal state. Holographically, these fast erasure processes can be depicted by generalized AdS-Vaidya geometries described previously in which no assumption of specific form of bulk matter is needed. We show that the quantum null energy condition gives analytic results for the minimal finite temperature needed for the deletion which is larger than the initial background temperature in consistency with Landauer's principle. In particular, we find a simple expression for the minimum final temperature needed for the erasure of a large number of encoding qubits. We also find that if the encoding qubits are localized over an interval shorter than a specific localization length, then the fast erasure process is impossible, and furthermore this localization length is the largest for an optimal amount of encoding qubits determined by the central charge. We estimate the optimal encoding qubits for realistic protection against fast erasure. We discuss possible generalizations of our study for novel constructions of fault-tolerant quantum gates operating at finite temperature.

description: We consider the measure-geometric Laplacians $Δ^μ$ with respect to atomless compactly supported Borel probability measures $μ$ as introduced by Freiberg and Zähle in 2002 and show that the harmonic calculus of $Δ^μ$ can be deduced from the classical (weak) Laplacian. We explicitly calculate the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of $Δ^μ$. Further, it is shown that there exists a measure-geometric Laplacian whose eigenfunctions are the Chebyshev polynomials and illustrate our results through specific examples of fractal measures, namely Salem and inhomogeneous self-similar Cantor measures.

description: We show that incompressible polar active fluids can exhibit an ordered, coherently moving phase even in the presence of quenched disorder in two dimensions. Unlike such active fluids with annealed (i.e., time-dependent) disorder only, which behave like equilibrium ferromagnets with long-range interactions, this robustness against quenched disorder is a fundamentally non-equilibrium phenomenon. The ordered state belongs to a new universality class, whose scaling laws we calculate using three different renormalization group schemes, which all give scaling exponents within 0.02 of each other, indicating that our results are quite accurate. Our predictions can be quantitatively tested in readily available artificial active systems, and imply that biological systems such as cell layers can move coherently in vivo, where disorder is inevitable.

The Debt Ceiling Statute and Constitutional Limits on U.S. Economic Policy
Creators: name: Buchanan, Neil H.
Publisher: name: Figshare

Subjects: subject: 160509 Public Administration
subject: FOS: Political science

description: The United
States government has experienced repeated political crises since 2011, caused
by the Republican Party’s legislative strategy of threatening to refuse to
increase the statutory limit on gross public borrowing, also known as the debt
ceiling. This thesis considers what the president must do if Congress passes
spending and taxing laws that can only be carried out with additional federal
borrowing, and when Congress then fails to increase the debt ceiling to
accommodate that needed borrowing. The standard view in U.S. political circles
is that the president would have to refuse to pay some of the parties to whom
money is owed, that is, to cancel spending. That view is incorrect, because the
U.S. Constitution requires the president to borrow sufficient funds to meet all
federal financial obligations, even if doing so requires borrowing in excess of
the statutory ceiling.

   This thesis offers several independent arguments in support
of this conclusion. First, failing to pay obligations when due would violate
the Public Debt Clause of the Constitution. Second, the proper separation of
executive from legislative powers is violated when the president engages in
picking winners and losers through the power of the public purse, especially
because doing so would necessarily cause irreversible harms to innocent
parties. Third, failing to pay the government’s obligations in full and on time
would prevent an increase in debt to a level in excess of the debt ceiling only
if accompanied by a clear repudiation of the obligations, not merely a delay.
But repudiation is a clear constitutional violation, whereas a delay is merely
another name for borrowing. Failing to pay obligations when due is thus a
violation of the Public Debt Clause or fails to avoid the violation of the debt
ceiling that it purports to avoid. All of these problems are of constitutional
dimension, not merely statutory in nature.

   Finally, a debt ceiling crisis would put the Federal Reserve
in the position of having to lend money to the federal Treasury, which would
put the central bank in the position of taking a side in a dispute between
Congress and the president. This would threaten the continued independence of
the central bank, because Congress could respond by putting political
constraints on the central bank (if not dismantling it entirely). This thesis
explains why the central bank should continue to be politically independent,
focusing on the role that monetary policy plays in creating and mitigating
economic crises, and demonstrating that the central bank needs to be
independent to prevent political manipulation of monetary policy and thus avoid
damaging, self-serving choices by Congress and the president.
