A Sociology of Monsters Essays on Power Technology and Domination - Original PDF
A Sociology of Monsters Essays on Power Technology and Domination - Original PDF
نویسندگان: John Law خلاصه: We founded ourselves on class; then, at a much later date wc learned a little about ethnicity; more recently we discovered gender; and more recently still we learned something - perhaps not very much yet - about age and disability. So might a white, middle class, middle aged man with a normativcly approved set of physical skills write of the history of his sociology. So might he comment on the way in which he slowly learned that 'his' sociology had never spoken for 'us': that all along the sociological 'wc' was a Leviathan that had achieved its (sense of) order by usurping or silencing the other voices.Even so, this was a sociology always driven, at least in part, by a concern with distribution - for otherwise it would never have learned of its isolation. It was driven by a concern with pain. It was driven by an ambivalent wish to learn of and intervene about injustice. But what should count as a distribution was fought over time and time again in the retreat from a sovereign order. 'We* found it difficult to recognise class - for after all, we are all free and equal in the market. And ethnicity, too, was slow to come into focus, perhaps because it was hoped that this was underpinned by a logic of class. Then those who look class seriously - and, to be sure, those who did not - found it difficult to recognise gender. Where 'we* are now, gender is somewhat, but only somewhat, in focus. Still there are great silences about gender. As there are about age, about disability.
Max Weber Matters: Interweaving Past and Present - Original PDF
Max Weber Matters: Interweaving Past and Present - Original PDF
نویسندگان: David Chalcraft (editor), Fanon Howell (editor), Marisol Lopez Menendez (editor), Hector Vera (editor) خلاصه: Revealing the extent to which scholars are seeking to understand both current and historical issues through the sociology of Max Weber, this book reaffirms and extends the enduring relevance of Weber's thought to contemporary cultural and political questions.Through a thematic structure designed to expose a variety of ways in which Weber's work matters with reference to a given subject, it comprises methodological reflection on Weber's historical sociology, as well as the application and testing of his ideal types in historical enquiry, often to areas that have not yet been approached in this way.With its focus on both the practical application of Weber's thought as well as his philosophical legacy, "Max Weber Matters" will be of interest to scholars across a range of disciplines, including historians, sociologists, political scientists and social theorists.

Bioactives in Fruit: Health Benefits and Functional Foods - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Margot Skinner & Denise Hunter خلاصه: Oils and fats are almost ubiquitous in food processing, whether naturally occurring in foods or added as ingredients that bring functional benefits. Whilst levels of fat intake must be controlled in order to avoid obesity and other health problems, it remains the fact that fats (along with proteins and carbohydrates) are one of the three macronutrients and therefore an essential part of a healthy diet. This second edition presents at professional and reference level the current state of the art of the edible oils in the industry, focusing on the various processing stages and considering both chemistry and process engineering.

Electronic Trading and Blockchain: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow - Original PDF
Electronic Trading and Blockchain: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Richard Sandor خلاصه: Trading floors in the 60s and 70s involved hundreds of people shouting bids and offers in multi-coloured jackets standing next to each other in different pits, gesticulating with their hands. The decibel levels were extremely high, so high that traders who traded every day had hearing problems later in life. In 1980, the first widely used electronic trading exchange was established. On September 1, 1969, the California Commodity Advisory Research Project (CCARP) was formed and housed at UC Berkeley. The project's first aim was to examine the feasibility of an electronic, for-profit exchange. At the time, there were only 12 exchanges worldwide, and none were for-profit – or electronic. Read first-hand from Richard Sandor, the project director and how CCARP was 20 years too early for the financial world.

Global Algorithmic Capital Markets: High Frequency Trading, Dark Pools, and Regulatory Challenges - Original PDF
Global Algorithmic Capital Markets: High Frequency Trading, Dark Pools, and Regulatory Challenges - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Walter Mattli خلاصه: Global capital markets have undergone fundamental transformations in recent years and, as a result, have become extraordinarily complex and opaque. Trading space is no longer measured in minutes or seconds but in time units beyond human perception: milliseconds, microseconds, and even nanoseconds. Technological advances have thus scaled up imperceptible and previously irrelevant time differences into operationally manageable and enormously profitable business opportunities for those with the proper high-tech trading tools. These tools include the fastest private communication and trading lines, the most powerful computers and sophisticated algorithms capable of speedily analysing incoming news and trading data and determining optimal trading strategies in microseconds, as well as the possession of gigantic collections of historic and real-time market data. Fragmented capital markets are also becoming a rapidly growing reality in Europe and Asia, and are an established feature of U.S. trading. This raises urgent market governance issues that have largely been overlooked. Global Algorithmic Capital Markets seeks to understand how recent market transformations are affecting core public policy objectives such as investor protection and reduction of systemic risk, as well as fairness, efficiency, and transparency. The operation and health of capital markets affect all of us and have profound implications for equality and justice in society. This unique set of chapters by leading scholars, industry insiders, and regulators discusses ways to strengthen market governance for the benefit of society at whole.

Hands-On Machine Learning for Algorithmic Trading - Original PDF
نویسندگان: Stefan Jansen خلاصه: Historically, algorithmic trading used to be more narrowly defined as the automation of trade execution to minimize costs as offered by the sell side, but we will take a more comprehensive perspective since the use of algorithms, and ML, in particular, has come to impact a broader range of activities from idea generation and alpha factor design to asset allocation, position sizing, and the testing and evaluation of strategies. This chapter looks at the bigger picture of how the use of ML has emerged as a critical source of competitive advantage in the investment industry and where it fits into the investment process to enable algorithmic trading strategies. We will be covering the following topics in the chapter: How this book is organized and who should read it How ML has come to play a strategic role in algorithmic trading How to design and execute a trading strategy How ML adds value to an algorithmic trading strategy
