This article provides a biographical look at the American author James Fenimore Cooper. It traces his roots from his youth in Cooperstown—named after his father William—to his ill-timed naval career, and on to his time as a self-conscious novelist.

Michael Lewis is a New York Times bestselling author who has written more than a dozen books on subjects ranging from politics to Wall Street. His recently released book, "Fifth Risk," explores mismanagement in federal government. His other books include "The Big Short," "Moneyball" and "The Blind Side" - all of which were made into movies. Another, "Liar's Poker," was based partly on his experience as a bond salesman at Salomon Brothers. Lewis is a sharp observer of politics, finance and the evolution of American culture, combining keen insight with a sharp sense of humor. He is a columnist for Bloomberg News and a contributing writer to Vanity Fair. His articles have also appeared in The New York Times Magazine, The New Yorker and Sports Illustrated.

The writings of the Indian Diaspora have received a great deal of attention and critical acclaim throughout the world. Rohinton Mistry is a well renowned author in the contemporary commonwealth literature and occupies a significant place among the writers of Indian Diaspora. Even though he is settled in Canada; it is his upbringing in Mumbai that reflects in all his writings. The distinct Mumbai culture, particularly the Parsee way of life, the people of the city and even the politics of India are major themes in his novels. Rohinton Mistry as a writer of Diaspora has carved a niche for himself. His works such as: "Tales from Firozsha Baag", "Such A Long Journey", "A Fine Balance" and "Family Matters";mark a new kind of writing, resulting from a fragmented, splintered world. As a Diasporic Parsi writer, very sensitively he has recalled his community's journey through time and history with a sense of loss and nostalgia. His books portray diverse facets of Indian socioeconomic life; as well as Parsi Zoroastrian life, customs, and religion. Many of his writings are markedly "Indo-nostalgic". Rohinton Mistry through his Diasporic discourse has well depicted his ancestral background, his community's engaged situation in a metropolis like Bombay and his deep attachment with and nostalgia for a world gone by. In this paper an attempt has been made to delineate diasporic discourse in the works of Rohinton Mistry. Although he is obsessed with the colonial and postcolonial experiences in India, we can find some traces of Canada in his literature. His characters dream of being integrated into, and accepted by, Canadian society on the one hand and on the other hand, these same characters are torn by an insatiable desire to be true to their native culture; to honor and cherish their own, distinct cultural identity.

Image text reads "Save the people/Save the children/Save the country.NOW! / McGovern '72" with a graphic of two figures in profile and two doves between them.

Die Schweiz ist ein Land, das seit der Industrialisierung und des damit einhergehenden wirtschaftlichen Aufschwungs am Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts Zuwanderer anzieht. Der Ausländeranteil an der Gesamtbevölkerung lag 2009 bei 22,9 Prozent und damit höher als in vielen anderen europäischen Staaten. Trotz dieser Tatsachen hat die Schweiz es lange Zeit abgelehnt, sich als Einwanderungsland zu sehen. Eine systematische Integrationspolitik wurde daher erst in den letzten Jahren konzipiert. Während seit den 1990er Jahren die Zuwanderungsbedingungen für EU-Staatsangehörige sukzessiv erleichtert wurden, beschränkt sich die Zuwanderung aus Drittstaaten aktuell auf Hochqualifizierte und den Familiennachzug.

Since the industrialization in the 19th century, Switzerland has been an attractive destination for immigrants. In 2009, foreign residents constituted 22.9 percent of the total population. Switzerland was thus host to more foreigners than many other European countries. Despite these facts, Switzerland has - for a long time - denied to be a country of immigration. Coherent integration policies have therefore been designed only in recent years. While conditions for immigration have been eased for EU citizens since the 1990s, immigration of third country citizens is currently limited to the highly qualified and family reunification.
