Democracy, political risks and stock market performance
2015
We study whether the emerging stock markets’ performance is affected by direct and indirect effects of democracy level and political risk. We argue that the relationship between democracy level and the political risk is parabolic instead of a simple linear relation i.e. there exists a limit in democracy after which the political risk begins to decline and this is reflected in stock prices. Using panel data for 38 emerging markets at yearly frequency and controlling for several domestic and international factors, we find a fairly robust evidence that during the period 2000-2010, this relationship is true and after some threshold, the more democratic countries produce higher returns. Similar …
Ruch pokojowy w RFN (Friedensbewegung) w pierwszej połowie lat osiemdziesiątych XX wieku
2018
In the 1980s, the peace movement, which was mobilizing hundreds of thousands of people in protests against the double act passed by NATO in December 1979, was an integral element of the West-German political stage. It influenced the system of power and internal conflicts within the German Social Democracy (SPD), being the strongest opponent of the policy run by the government of Chancellor Schmidt. It also contributed to the formation of the Green Party and was the object of polemics within trade unions. Apart from that it provided a stimulus for debates of the ethical and religious character within the Catholic and Protestant Churches in the FRG. Lastly, it was the object of controversy an…
Denied and false pregnancies: Opposite settings of a single evolutionary conflict
2016
Aim: A woman in denial of pregnancy is pregnant but remains unaware of her gravid state. In the case of a false pregnancy; the woman is not pregnant but believes she is and presents signs and symptoms of pregnancy. These syndromes correspond to opposite contradictions that were mainly explored separately. Our aim is to explain them by a common and consistent etiology. Method: We explore internal conflicts inherited from the evolutionary transition from solitary animals to social species. Results: The solitary and social characters are contradictory. They induce internal conflicts intrinsic to the human condition. At the reproduction level, those conflicts oppose primitive interests (genes t…
A study of minorities as victims
2006
This article presents the idea that during the 1990s an important change took place in relation between minorities and majorities: the emergence of minorities as victims alongside the formerly predominant active, militant minorities. A hypothesis is raised that these two types of minorities differ in their agenda as well as in the nature of the influence they exert. Active minorities trigger an external conflict with majority and induce conversion (latent rather than overt influence); minorities as victims create an internal conflict, a sense of guilt, within the majority, while they exert an exclusively overt influence. We report two experiments confirming our hypothesis. We discuss the no…
