Varietals of Capitalism

A Political Economy of the Changing Wine Industry

By: Xabier Itçaina,Antoine Roger,Andy Smith

Varietals of Capitalism shows that politics is an omnipresent part of the economics of wine and of economic activity in general. Based on a four-year research project encompassing fieldwork in France, Spain, Italy, and Romania, Xabier Itçaina, Antoine Roger, and Andy Smith examine the causes and effects of a radical reform adopted at the EU level in 2008. Regulatory change politically transformed the rationale of EU support to the wine industry, from shaping the supply side to encouraging producers to adapt to the demands of a supposedly "new consumer."To explain the adoption and impact of the reform, the authors develop an analytical framework to capture the actors—their perceptions, preferences, and interdependencies—within an industry crisscrossed by institutions located at the global, European, national, and local scales. This framework combines concepts and lessons from historical institutionalism and regulationist economics, Bourdieu's field theory, and the sociology of public policymaking. The authors reject accounts that attribute policy change simply to material determinants and "the invisible hand of the market." They emphasize the crucial importance of institutions within sectors of the economy, and propose ways to bolster constructivist approaches to political economy by linking industrial change to scientific and bureaucratic balances of power. This book’s novel focus on different levels of institutional impact should prove influential in the study of the politics of industry, and more broadly within the comparative analysis of capitalism.

Neuromechanics of Human Movement-5th Edition

By: Enoka, Roger M.

Neuromechanics of Human Movement, Fifth Edition, draws on the disciplines of neurophysiology and physics to explore how the nervous system controls the actions of muscles to produce human motion. This contemporary approach is much different from the traditional approach, which focuses solely on mechanics and does not consider the role of the sensorimotor system in the control of human movement. Authored by Roger Enoka, a widely recognized and esteemed scholar in neuromechanics, this influential text is an essential resource in biomechanics, motor learning, and applied physiology, making complex information accessible to students.

Niebuhr in Egypt

European Science in a Biblical World

By: Roger H. Guichard Jr.

As a member of the Royal Danish Expedition to Arabia, Carsten Niebuhr is justly celebrated for his contribution to an understanding of the Arab world. But the most concentrated period of time he and the expedition spent together was not in Arabia at all. It was in Egypt. The sojourn in that country was an unexpected boon, Egypt not even appearing on the expedition's original itinerary. But what an opportunity it presented to an undertaking with an avowedly biblical purpose. When Niebuhr and his companions were detained for a year in Egypt in 1761-62, it was, after all, in a place that some have called the cradle of the Jewish people. Although Egypt had existed for millennia, with or without the Jews, the notion that its history served as little more than stage setting for the drama of mankind as played out in the Hebrew Scriptures was pervasive in eighteenth-century Europe. But freed for the year from the painstaking instructions of Professor Johann David Michaelis, the foremost biblical philologist of the eighteenth century and the expedition's prime mover, Niebuhr was able to approach the country with an open mind and in so doing made an early contribution to the nascent discipline of Egyptology.

Gustav

By: Roger Hanin

Qui est, en vérité, cet étrange « Gustav » ? Disons qu'à première vue c'est un homme qui répond aux questions qu'on ne lui a pas encore posées. Un homme qui vient d'ailleurs, mais qui se conduit comme un proche parent, et dont la sagesse peut s'exprimer à travers la voix de l'un, de l'autre, et même d'un chien. En d'autres termes, ce « Gustav », c'est un peu le Messie qu'on attend. C'est l'étranger qui offre son amour sans compter. Et qui peut disparaître aussi vite qu'il a surgi... Ce bref portrait dit assez que le héros de ce roman se prête à la fantaisie de Roger Hanin. Et à son goût pour l'absurde, le non-sens, la fable... L'histoire ? Un homme et son fils de treize ans vont au Havre en Bentley, pour accueillir l'oncle Gustav - dont un télégramme leur a annoncé la visite. Sur place, le jeune garçon, Pablito, va s'éprendre d'une prostituée Laëtitia, que son père tentera de racheter à son proxénète, avant que celle-ci, devenue lesbienne, ne s'éprenne d'une certaine Madame Livingstone qui voyageait, précisément, avec ledit Gustav... Tout cela semble compliqué ? Mais non ! Car la trame de ces aventures importe moins que les digressions dont elle est le prétexte. Roger Hanin y incruste, à chaque page, sa vision du monde - une vision fraternelle, désespérée, résolument poétique. On peut résister à cet univers. On peut, aussi bien, s'y abandonner, et commence alors un rare plaisir de rêverie et de lecture...
