Global economic and financial crisis 2007–2009 had a devastating effect on international capital flows. An assessment of their dynamics over the past decade shows that in certain fields (for example, the volume of international debt securities circulating) the pre-crisis indicators were exceeded, in a number of areas they are close to the pre-crisis level (foreign direct investments, total capitalization of the world stock market), international bank lending remains significantly behind the pre-crisis values. In the leading world economies cross-border capital flows relative to GDP significantly decreased compared to 2007. Global imbalances between savings and investments continued to grow, though their structure by countries changed, and now developed countries play a key role in them. In the structure of international capital flows the main shift occurred from the other to portfolio investment, with a slight increase in the role of direct investment. The “quantitative easing” policy in the USA and euro zone has had a significant impact on international capital flows. With generally positive trends in international capital movements in 2017–2018, new threats to their developments are beginning to emerge, primarily in countries with emerging markets.

On appointment as US ambassador to the United Kingdom John Winant called for E. F. Penrose and Edith to join him as foreign service technical advisers on economic and social affairs. Edith continued to work on food issues, but also on international trade, capital movements, migration, and changes in industrial distribution. E. F. Penrose was involved with a network of economists, including Keynes, James Meade, Lionel Robbins, Austin Robinson in London, Harry Dexter White, Morgenthau, and others in the USA on wartime and postwar planning. Edith’s journal of wartorn London conveys the intensity of the time and reveals the development of her own thinking through prolific reading and thoughtful reflection on the conversations and preoccupations of those she came into contact with, including many prominent economists, diplomats, journalists, and politicians; particularly the varying visions of the postwar world.

The Relationship

Abstract. TV news are essentially cultural phenomena. Previous research suggests that the often-overlooked formal and implicit characteristics of newscasts may be systematically related to culture-specific characteristics. Investigating these characteristics by means of a frame-by-frame content analysis is identified as a particularly promising methodological approach. To examine the relationship between culture and selected formal characteristics of newscasts, we present an explorative study that compares material from the USA, the Arab world, and Germany. Results indicate that there are many significant differences, some of which are in line with expectations derived from cultural specifics. Specifically, we argue that the number of persons presented as well as the context in which they are presented can be interpreted as indicators of Individualism/Collectivism. The conclusions underline the validity of the chosen methodological approach, but also demonstrate the need for more comprehensive and theory-driven category schemes.

Abstract. The current study examines the item and scalar equivalence of an abbreviated school-based universal screener that was cross-culturally translated and adapted from English into German. The instrument was designed to assess student behavior problems that impact classroom learning. Participants were 1,346 K-6 grade students from the US (n = 390, Mage = 9.23, 38.5% female) and Germany (n = 956, Mage = 8.04, 40.1% female). Measurement invariance was tested by multigroup confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) across students from the US and Germany. Results support full scalar invariance between students from the US and Germany (df = 266, χ2 = 790.141, Δχ2 = 6.9, p < .001, CFI = 0.976, ΔCFI = 0.000, RMSEA = 0.052, ΔRMSEA = −0.003) indicating that the factor structure, the factor loadings, and the item thresholds are comparable across samples. This finding implies that a full cross-cultural comparison including latent factor means and structural coefficients between the US and the German version of the abbreviated screener is possible. Therefore, the tool can be used in German schools as well as for cross-cultural research purposes between the US and Germany.
