It also is a contrast to east and the greek orthodox church. The implications of the use is that we are europeans means that they are christians, but that they are latin catholics rather than greek orthodox. These distinctions are crucial to what it means to be a european. Muslim thinkers are moving away from the notion that europe is an active imposer of ideas and the muslim world is the passive receiver of ideas. Instead, they were active appropriators of european ideas. At least at the beginning of the 19th century there were 2 important strands of thought that would influence the way european ideas would be challenged. The idea that 19th century europe was not medieval (they have achieved.

Compare and Contrast European and American Financial Crises and Perspectives on Crises

First, consider what you have learned about the financial crisis, politics, institutions, like the Federal Reserve, and the aftermath of the crisis in the United States and Europe (and, of course, in Europe there is a continuing debt crisis). Has your study in this class changed your perspectives on the economic crisis itself, politics or any aspect of recent American history? Or has study in the course influenced your perspectives on the European crisis? In answering these questions consider whether or not some knowledge acquired in this course has influenced your perspective and the way you think: describe that knowledge and explain how it has influenced or changed your perspective or thinking.

Sample regression question using daily data from January 1st 1999 to January 1st 2002, British Airways estimated the demand function for 8 of its key European routes. The resulting regression equation was estimated: log Q = - 1.55 - 1.71 log F +1.44 log GNP + 1.58 log A - 0.25 log S (0.16) (0.58) (0.83) (0.37). Where Q is the number of passengers flying with BA on their European routes, F is the average yield per passenger-kilometre, GNP combines the real gross national products for the countries involved, A is advertising on European routes, and S is the average speed of all European flights. Standard errors are in brackets, R2 is 0.93. Given the above information, interpret the estimated demand function for BA.

Comment on the significance of this model (use critical = 1.96).

What implications do these results have for BA in formulating its strategy?

What other variables would be of interest to estimate?
