Zusammenfassung: I krig er sannheten alltid det første offeret. Slik var det også i Norge under andre verdenskrig, men har vi tatt inn over oss den rollen nordmenn selv spilte i spredningen av antisemittisk propaganda under krigen? Det var ikke bare de tyske okkupantene som tok kontroll over norske medier - mindre omtalt er i hvor stor grad Nasjonal Samling presset avisene til å trykke jødefiendtlige artikler fra partiets eget pressebyrå, Norsk Artikkeltjeneste. Det norske jødehatet viser hvordan Nasjonal Samling utnyttet den tyske okkupasjonen til politisk å endre norske aviser og påvirke dets lesere. Innholdet i tekstene har vært lite omtalt i vår okkupasjonshistorie og viser hvor utbredt antisemittisme var i norske aviser under krigen. Forfatter Bjørn Westlie kobler denne propagandaen til tyskernes aksjoner mot de norske jødene. Kunne norske redaktører handlet annerledes enn de gjorde? Og hvorfor ble det ikke tatt et oppgjør med denne hatretorikken i krigsoppgjøret?

This book is a unique guide to making the world a better place. Experts apply a critical eye to the United Nations' Sustainable Development agenda, also known as the Global Goals, which will affect the flow of $2.5 trillion of development aid up until 2030. Renowned economists, led by Bjorn Lomborg, determine what pursuing different targets will cost and achieve in social, environmental and economic benefits. There are 169 targets, covering every area of international development - from health to education, sanitation to conflict. Together, these analyses make the case for prioritizing the most effective development investments. A panel of Nobel Laureate economists identify a set of 19 phenomenal development targets, and argue that this would achieve as much as quadrupling the global aid budget

Panel data is a data type increasingly used in research in economics, social sciences and medicine. Its primary characteristic is that the data variation goes jointly over space (across individuals, firms, countries, etc.) and time (over years, months, etc.). Panel data allow examination of problems that cannot be handled by cross-section data or time-series data. Panel data analysis is a core field in modern econometrics and multivariate statistics, and studies based on such data occupy a growing part of the field in many other disciplines. This work is intended as a text for master and advanced undergraduate courses

Verlagsinfo: "The Skeptical Environmentalist" challenges widely held beliefs that the environmental situation is getting worse and worse. The author, himself a former member of Greenpeace, is critical of the way in which many environmental organisations make selective and misleading use of the scientific evidence. Using the best available statistical information from internationally recognised research institutes, Bjørn Lomborg systematically examines a range of major environmental problems that feature prominently in headline news across the world. His arguments are presented in non-technical, accessible language and are carefully backed up by over 2500 footnotes allowing readers to check sources for themselves. Concluding that there are more reasons for optimism than pessimism, Bjørn Lomborg stresses the need for clear-headed prioritisation of resources to tackle real, not imagined problems. "The Skeptical Environmentalist" offers readers a non-partisan stocktaking exercise that serves as a useful corrective to the more alarmist accounts favoured by campaign groups and the media.

"What do refugee and concentration camps, prisons, terrorist and guerrilla training camps and prisoner of war camps have in common? Arguably, they have all followed an 'outsides inside' model, separating those perceived to be 'undesirable' and 'deviant' from that which is considered 'desirable' and 'normal'. With its predominant focus on camps for refugees and internally displaced persons, this work surveys the many categories of camps and similar spaces of confinement and separation from both a functionalist and multidisciplinary perspective. In a study that is replete with historical examples from across the world, Møller explores various substitutes for camps and camp-like arrangements, deportation and surveillance among them, and surveys the ways in which this separation of the 'normative' and 'deviant' has often served the purposes of the powers that be."--Goodreads.com
