The Incidence of the Costs of Compliance with Government Regulation

The Incidence of the Costs of Compliance with Government Regulation
Our study is addressed to the question of how the costs of compliance with regulation are distributed among the population. Essentially our study attempts to answer the question: What can be said about the distribution of benefits and costs of regulation?...Why should we be interested in the distribution of the costs of regulation? One reason is simply to emphaisze that regulation is not a neutral exercise. There are beneficiaries and "victims", gainers and losers. Even if there is a net social benefit from a regulatory regime costs are imposed on someone....To the extent regulation is effective, the protected can be deemed the beneficiaries and those whose actions are proscribed are losers. If we find scarce resources are used up in the regulatory process, there is an added cost to society in the form of reduced final output and higher prices, although the quality of the output or the environment in which the output is consumed may "improve" in sone sense.

Hughie and Paula
In 1997, controversial TV star Paula Yates discovered that her true father was not, as she had believed, disgraced television personality Jess Yates, but the man who had destroyed his career--Hughie Green. Devastated, she approached Green''s son, Christopher, in an effort to unravel the mystery behind her two ''fathers''. Hughie Green was a huge showbiz figure and probably the first star of British TV. His show, Opportunity Knocks, launched the career of Les Dawson and many others. Christopher Green''s investigation, which forms the heart of this extraordinary book, uncovered many of the dark and deeply buried secrets that Paula Yates, tragically, never lived to hear.

A Political Family
The Kuczynskis were a German-Jewish family of active anti-fascists who worked assiduously to combat the rise of Nazism before and during the course of the Second World War. This book focuses on the family of Robert and his wife Berta - both born two decades before the end of the nineteenth century - and their six children, five of whom became communists and one who worked as a Soviet agent. The parents, and later their children, rejected and rebelled against their comfortable bourgeois heritage and devoted their lives to the overthrow of privilege and class society. They chose to do this in a Germany that was rapidly moving in the opposite direction. With the rise of German nationalism and then Hitler fascism, the family was confronted with stark choices and, as a result of making these choices, suffered persecution and exile. Revealing how these experiences shaped their outlook and perception of events, this book documents the story of the Kuczynskis for the first time in the English language and is a fascinating biographical portrait of a unique and radical family.

John Golding

John Golding
John Golding (1929-2012) was a British artist, scholar and curator.Perhaps best known for his seminal book, Cubism: A history and an Analysis 1907-1914 (1959) he actually considered himself primarily a painter and exhibited extensively both in the UK and internationally during a career that spanned almost six decades. In retrospect, his reputation as a notable art historian somewhat, arguably, overshadowed his own practice as an artist. So, this new monograph endeavours to reveal and celebrate the other side of his oeuvre.''Golding''s knowledge of Renaissance painting, especially the great Venetians [...] informed his own work as he moved out of figuration and into abstract canvases in which light was the subject. He painted vertical streaks of colour down his canvases like pleated light (as he put it) and occasionally on, say, a misty blue, he would scatter clusters of gold pigment to reflect the actual light. After the end of the 20th century, he started to structure his paintings so that they appeared to be based on photographs from thousands of feet above the Earth, with ''roads'' and ''bridges'' and ''canals''...'' - Michael McNay, 2012 (The Guardian)Golding''s work was additionally shown alongside Bridget Riley, John Hoyland, Frank Auerbach, Peter Blake and David Hockney in important group exhibitions in London such as, British Painting 74'' at Hayward Gallery and, British Painting 1952-77 at the Royal Academy of Arts.

Une moderne Antiquité
Une analyse de l’influence de l’art antique dans le développement de l’art moderne européen, en particulier dans l’œuvre de De Chirico, Picabia, Léger et Picasso. Les différentes manières dont ces artistes de la modernité ont réinventé l’antiquité à leurs propres fins, surtout à l’époque du « retour à l’ordre », au lendemain de la Première Guerre mondiale. Cette étude met en lumière aussi en quoi ce phénomène s’inscrit dans le contexte de l’élargissement considérable de la connaissance de l’art antique entre les années 1870 et les années 1930, tournant qui voit la conception de l’Antiquité se détacher définitivement de l’idéalisme néo-classique issu des idées de Winckelmann. L’intérêt se porte alors autant sur les époques archaïques que sur les âges d’or de Périclès ou Auguste. Et c’est moins la statuaire classique que la stylisation sommaire des silhouettes sur les vases de céramiques qui retient Picasso. Autre évolution du regard porté sur l’Antiquité, ainsi que le rappellent une partie des essais : la relecture freudienne des mythes grecs et romains à partir du début du XXe siècle, où spécialistes et artistes surréalistes voient la manifestations des désirs et des peurs ancrées au plus profond de l’être humain.
