Serie: The international library of critical writings in economics ; 243

Inhalt: ... the book is a good example of the writing and reasoning style, sometimes vivid and intriguing, often used by NIE authors. Similarly, the book is a good sample of NIE's multidisciplinary approach to economics. . . The range of papers presented gives the reader a good picture of the variety of approaches used by NIE scholars, and their ability to integrate sociological and legal consideration within the economic analysis.' - Martino Bianchi, CEU Political Science Journal The field of institutional economics has witnessed a surge in interest over recent years and has attracted the attention of a growing number of social scientists. This topical and highly informative collection brings together critical writings on the relationship between institutions and economic performance. The included works encompass seminal cross-country studies of 'whether institutions matter', as well as leading examples of within-country studies on the role of specific institutions. This indispensable volume includes an original introduction by the editor which explores the definition and measurement of institutions. The book is essential reading for anyone interested in institutions and economic development.

Originaltitel: Hereafter

Inhalt: George (Matt Damon) hat die Fähigkeit, mit dem Jenseits Kontakt aufzunehmen. Sein Bruder will das als Einnahmequelle nutzen, doch George will kein Medium sein, zu sehr bedrücken ihn die Trauer der Angehörigen und die Botschaften aus dem Jenseits. Er ist zutiefst vereinsamt. Journalistin Marie ist in Thailand bei einem Tsunami beinahe ertrunken, seitdem ist sie besessen von ihrer Nahtoderfahrung und versucht, alles über ein Leben nach dem Tode herauszufinden. Marcus hat seinen Zwilling durch einen Verkehrsunfall verloren und lebt nur noch in der gemeinsamen Vergangenheit. Die zunächst voneinander unabhängigen Erzählstränge werden nach und nach zusammengeführt, bis die Protagonisten sich schließlich in London begegnen. - Trotz Millionen-Dollar-Budget liefert Altmeister Eastwood hier keinen Mysterythriller der publikumsgängigen Art ab, sondern einen Arthaus-Streifen par excellence, der nicht erklärt oder dogmatisiert, sondern vielmehr zum Nachdenken und Auseinandersetzen anregt.
