Sovist' (Conscience) – A Rediscovered Showpiece of Ukrainian Poetic Cinema of the 1960s

Blog: TRAFO – Blog for Transregional Research

Forum Transregionale Studien

Forum Transregionale Studien

By Oleksii Isakov. Ukrainian Dreams, a special film event taking place for the first time in Berlin, aims to decolonise and remap Ukrainian cinema by emphasizing its position within the global cultural context and by bringing the works of Ukrainian directors out of the shadow of the mostly hegemonic Soviet and Russian past. Sovist' (1968), directed by Volodymyr Denysenko (1930-1984), is one of the films that certainly deserve a closer look.

The Year of the Defense of Life, Liberty and Property

Following his inauguration on December 10, Argentina's President Javier Milei has pursued his governmental goal to reduce the size and expenses of the state and to deregulate productive activities by issuing Executive Order (DNU) 70/23, titled "Bases for the Reconstruction of the Argentine Republic." This executive order is unprecedented in Argentina's history for its ambitious scope, addressing a wide range of issues in a single directive. This blogpost maps some constitutional questions that arise with Milei's choice of implementing his governmental agenda via Executive Order, including their status in Argentina's constitutional system and available mechanisms for congressional and judicial control.

The privileges of liberty and the sanctity of the individual went out and whipped butt

Blog: Blog - Adam Smith Institute

Harry Wallop has a lovely piece about bananas. The point we'd lift from it being: Keeping track of all the bananas comes down to barcodes on the outside of the boxes and a warehouse that operates, Hopkins says, with "relentless focus". He deciphers the code on one box, which is destined for Iceland supermarket and has come from Colombia. "I can see that it was harvested on March 27 at 10am," he says. "We have 3D warehouses, so I can tell which container, which ship it came in, who drove the forklift truck and which supermarket it will end up at."This is, of course, planning to the nth degree. Bananas crop 52 weeks a year, demand varies little. The entire system faces little variance in either supply or demand and the process is really just about the efficiency with which the transport can be arranged. Profit margins are tiny - 1 to 2% of turnover sorts of levels.This is exactly what a planned economy should be good at - planned economic activity. That is the justification for the entire idea, that planning is more efficient than the chaos of mere markets. But to offer a second PJ O'Rourke quote: "For all the meddling the Communist bloc countries have done in banana republics, they still never seem to be able to get their hands on any actual bananas."Which gives us our lesson for the day. Planned economies aren't even any good at planning. At which point the Hell with them really, there's no other rational response, is there?
