Four talks on Keynes in relation to the Bloomsbury Group: I. Maynard Keynes of Bloomsbury (Craufurd Goodwin); II. Keynes as Policy Advisor (E. Roy Weintraub); III. Keynes and Economics (Kevin D. Hoover); IV. Keynes and Hayek (Bruce Caldwell). The talks were delivered as part of roundtable discussion on John Maynard Keynes of Bloomsbury, the inaugural event of the Center for the History of Political Economy at Duke University, and were held in conjunction with Vision and Design: A Year of Bloomsbury, a campus-wide interdisciplinary program surrounding an exhibition of Bloomsbury art at Duke University's Nasher Museum of Art.

Fresh air does a body good, the thinking goes. For some people, however, air permeated with an odorless, colorless, and dense noble gas could be even better. In late summer, researchers at Harvard-affiliated McLean Hospital, a psychiatric facility that treated Sylvia Plath, John Nash Jr, and David Foster Wallace, found that xenon gas can reduce memories of traumatic events. Xenon is safe for use in humans, meaning a similar technique could help treat sufferers of post-traumatic stress disorder, which in a given year afflicts millions worldwide.

The past decade has seen the emergence of a new kind of documentary making that marries documentary storytelling and the principles of strategic communication. Strategic impact documentary is a transmedia practice that aims to achieve specific social change by aligning documentary production with online and offline communications practices. The contemporary media environment is one in which a wide range of organizations work to achieve their political and social goals through the media. This article highlights key characteristics of an emerging form of professional documentary production, drawing attention to formal development and changing contexts of production and the implications of this for our understanding of the link between documentary and social change.
