Overview: Die empirische Kapitalmarktforschung beobachtet in den Volatilitäten von Aktienkursrenditen immer wieder eine lang anhaltende Abhängigkeitsstruktur, ein so genanntes langes Gedächtnis. Dieses hat weit reichende Konsequenzen. Beispielsweise verkompliziert ein tatsächlich vorliegendes langes Gedächtnis die rationale Bewertung von Optionen und die Bestimmung diverser Risikomaße. Weitaus schwerer wiegt jedoch die Tatsache, dass die einschlägigen Standardmodelle diese Abhängigkeitsstrukturen nicht adäquat beschreiben können...Karsten Webel gibt zunächst einen Überblick über die in der Öko

Overview: Our objectives may be briefly stated. They are two. First, we have sought to provide a compact and digestible exposition of some sub-branches of mathematics which are of interest to economists but which are underplayed in mathematical texts and dispersed in the journal literature. Second, we have sought to demonstrate the usefulness of the mathematics by providing a systematic account of modern neoclassical economics, that is, of those parts of economics from which jointness in production has been excluded. The book is introductory not in the sense that it can be read by any high-sch

Welfens Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union have achieved sustained economic growth in first half of the new decade in the 2V^ century. EU ac­ cession countries which have joined the EU have benefited mainly from high capital inflows, a reduced risk premium - with shadow effects of this already occurring in the years before explicit membership - and growing trade.

Overview: Technischer Wandel kennzeichnet die Entwicklung der modernen Gesellschaft seit der industriellen Revolution um die Wende zum 19. Jahrhundert. Das wirklich Erstaunliche an der Geschichte dieser 200 Jahre ist, daß die Revolution nie aufgehört hat. Im Gegen­ teil, sie hat in mehreren Wellen an Intensität zugenommen, und wir haben bis heute nicht gelernt, den Wandel einigermaßen vorherzusehen, geschweige denn zu planen und zu steuern. Eine einzige Gewißheit bleibt: auch der Wandel wandelt sich ständig: "Es geht um ein ständiges Erzeugen von Anderssein" (Luhmann, 1992, 15). Die neuesten W

Overview: Researchers and agencies collect reams of objective data and authors publish volumes of subjective prose in attempts to explain what is meant by environmental quality. Still, we have no universally recognized methods for combining our quantitative measures with our qualitative concepts of environ­ ment. Not all of our environmental goals should be reduced to mere numbers, but many of them can be; and without these quantitative terms, we have no way of defining our present position nor of selecting positions we wish to attain on any logically established scale of environmen tal values

Overview: G. Carstensen Die Chirurgie ist eine Wissenschaft, ihre Ausübl,mg ein Handwerk; sie verlangt eine Übereinstimmung logischer, handwerklicher und intuitiver Vorgänge, wobei der Kopf die Hand leitet. Wissenschaft ist nicht nur der jeweilige Stand unserer Er­ kenntnisse, sondern auch unserer Irrtümer - allerdings mit der Einschränkung, daß der Irrtum von heute der Fortschritt von morgen sein kann und unsere Fähigkeiten, Entwicklungen vorauszusehen, nicht überschätzt werden sollten.
