Wound infections are an emerging medical problem worldwide, frequently neglected in under-resourced countries. Bacterial culture and antimicrobial drug resistance testing of infected wounds in patients in a rural hospital in Ghana identified no methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus or carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae but identified high combined resistance of Enterobacteriaceae against third-generation cephalosporins and fluoroquinolones.
ZusammenfassungDie Krise in der deutschen Nationalökonomie nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg führte zu dem von Alexander Rüstow ab 1926 intensiv betriebenen, am Ende gescheiterten Versuch, eine „geschlossene Front“ aller deutschen Theoretiker gegen die Historische Schule aufzubauen. Die von ihm sogenannten „Ricardianer“ sollten, wie er 1927 an Eucken schrieb, zur Attacke auf die „Ruinen der Historischen Schule“ übergehen. Diese Vorgänge, in denen wir einen Keim des späteren Ordoliberalismus sehen, sind lange unbeachtet geblieben oder in ihrer theoriegeschichtlichen Bedeutung nicht richtig gewürdigt worden. Die vorliegende Studie basiert auf der Auswertung der Korrespondenz Rüstows mit seinen sozialistischen Freunden Adolf Löwe und Eduard Heimann einerseits und seinen liberalen Wegbegleitern Walter Eucken und Wilhelm Röpke andererseits.
Max Weber’s path to economic science was impacted to a large degree by political motives. The question emerges how the depiction, which has been maintained by historians of economics, of Weber as a methodologist – who demands objectivity and value freedom in scientific analysis – is compatible with the view of a young, politically-minded economist who, even from the university lectern, did not shy away from personal value judgments? The manuscripts first published recently in the context of the Max Weber-Gesamtausgabe on his lectures Praktische Nationalökonomie (1895 – 1899) reveal that Weber distinguished sharply between value judgments and scientific analysis – not in order to suppress the former, but in order to be clear about his ultimate goals and its consequences at all times and to elevate these to guide his thinking in practical questions of political economy.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
