I have a certain thing for Tony Judt's works... "Haven't you guys learnt anything from the 60s? You got the sex, you got the drugs, you got the cultural freedom, but what about the part which said 'don't trust anyone over the age of 30?'"

Quantitative easing is to an extent, uncharted waters, in some case it has worked, in others not. but there are facts which have affected the result say Germany in 1923, having to pay France and Britian. and Romania in the early '90s, where money was stolen by government officials. Though in...

IT will not cost $200/month, that is an accusation made by the opposition for a cheap comeback without evidence, it has been projected by BP Parabas, that it will be far less that; on the ABC on Lateline (8th of April) and analyst from Macquaire Bank predictied it would make all services cheaper...

nothing's wrong with keynsian economics - there isn't a term for post behavioural economics government stimuli as no modern economist has written about since the presumption was that the wealth of globalisation that had occured would continue and thus no need. I read that there are some new...

You obviously haven't read the fine print, the government will invest 51%+; but according the SMH and AFR there has been already interest of 11bn fro mthe private sector, mostly from Optus. http://www.smh.com.au/national/cable-eye-to-the-future-20090409-a27m.html (News Review, Page 1, 2; 10th of...

pfft, I think publications like the Economist and the Sydney Morning Herald do have a certain amount of clout. 10th April News Review, page 2 of the SMH.

nothing under howard is an overstatement, i'll give you that, he did improve rural roads. but the sale of Telstra, and its associated issues is a clear issue. He also did have great financial regulation. Yea, Keynsian economics, nothing wrong with the public sector stepping in to fill the void...

I frankly don't know how that could be, he made this country dependant on the corporate taxes of the mining boom! which aply, are currently non-existant and this goes to show his long term good governance. this is utterly poor governance. He could have invested in those things which are ever so...

And when you say it is "economically fucked up," how so? you should know how Keysian Economics works? and that economic development causes economic growth? and that the conservative estimates that 37000 people will gain job fro mthe building, and that 25000 people will annually for 8 years gain...

THere shouldn't be any government(taxpayer) funding to private schools, for the sole reaso nthat they are private, not public. they are owned by private business, it is unethical to give people who can afford elite education better education by the taxpayer, it is completely oligarchic and...

THanks, I just found a refrance to A.J.P. Taylor who claims that we was a a "brilliant oppertunist" in my Modern History textbook, I'm not studying German history there and I didn't know about it. Now I ha ve to find someone that juxaposes Taylor's view..... ohhhh

There's no referancing on the Wikipedia page so thats a dead end. - and it's one of the first port of calls, been there before. I already have done a NSW USYD and UNSW library search so i know its rather thin.

I know it requires real research, the point of the matter is that I can't seem to find 2 differing views. There's almost nothing on London Protocol (1852), the Second Schleswig War, the November Consitiution, Seven Week War and the Franco Prussian War, the Frankfurt Treaty with directly...

Hey does anyone know of historians who have differing persectives and views on Otto Von Bismarck? I plan to ask the question "Did Count Otto Von Bismarck have a master-plan for the unification of Germany or did he simply wish to extend the power of Prussia?" and I can't find any books in print...
