The underlying theoretical premise of this text is that the separation between the executive and legislative functions has important policy consequences and has influenced legislative outcomes. The study analyzes the pattern of interaction on banking bill introductions over the past 150 years.

This work by the 19th-century historian is available in the 1968 translation. Here, he untangles the events of the Time of Troubles and the emergence of the Romanov dynasty, and develops his interpretation of the century as prologue to the Petrine reforms.

problem (0. 2) was the same u that of problem (0. 1). Incidentally, later on Mandzhavidze and Khvedclidze (I) and Simonenko (I) achieved a direct reduction of problem (0. 2) to problem (0. 1) with the help of conformal mappings. Apparenlly, the first paper in which SIES were considered was the paper by Vekua (2) published in 1948. Vekua verified that the equation (0. 3) where (1, EUR C(f), 5 is the operator of 'ingular integration with a Cauch...

Intersubband transitions in quantum wells have attracted tremendous attention in recent years, mainly due to the promise of applications in the mid and far-infrared regions (2--20 mum). Many of the papers presented in Quantum Well Intersubband Transition Physics and Devices are on the basic linear intersubband transition processes, detector physics and detector application, reflecting the current state of understanding and detector application...
