Taking Back Control
Taking Back Control:The Role of the EU1 John O'Hagan (bio) It was noted by the German philosopher Jürgen Habermas (b. 1929) that there are some issues whose influence permeates national boundaries and give rise to problems which individual states, or even limited coalitions of states, are no longer able to influence, let alone control (see Habermas, 2012). Habermas was writing shortly after the global financial crisis of the late 2000s. Since the…
Prominent US authors, born 1800 to 1950
This paper examines the lives of US creative writers over time, in terms of geographic location/migration, literary output and age, For this, we have constructed a novel and large data set on the geographic location, and number of major publications, for every year of the lives of 473 US writers listed in Encyclopedia Britannica born between 1800 to 1949. The main findings of interest are: While the number of female authors at the start of the pe…
Do state funding, geographic location, and networks matter
Using a uniquely constructed data set, we look at the ecologies of creative careers in film/TV-drama/theatre, using a detailed interview questionnaire case study of eighty-two prominent workers in the Irish film/TV-drama/theatre sectors. Three influences on career progression are given special attention: state patronage, geographic location and networks. There is strong evidence to show that those interviewed consider state patronage as very impo…
Output Characteristics and Other Determinants of Theatre Attendance—An Econometric Analysis of German Data
The purpose of this paper is to test the sensitivity of theatre attendance in Germany to a number of unique output characteristics of the performing arts, as well as the usual economic variables of price and income. This is made possible by the availability of an exceptionally rich data set relating to the very large theatre sector in Germany. The econometric results indicate that the output characteristics used do impact significantly on theatre…
Clustering and Migration of Important Visual Artists
An article by John O'Hagan and Elish Kelly in 2005 (see Historical Methods 38:118-25) discussed collecting information on visual artists that would allow a broad historical ranking based on "prominence." O'Hagan and Kelly collected these data to examine prominent artists' birth locations, work locations, and their consequential patterns of labor movement during several long periods. In this article, the authors examine artists' migration for four…
Identifying the Most Important Artists in a Historical Context
The authors collect information on visual artists to allow a broad historical ranking of the most prominent artists. Their purpose is to examine the birth and work locations, and the consequential pattern of labor movement, of prominent artists over a number of long time periods. The article indicates that a relatively simple column-inch approach may suffice for the purpose of identifying the thousand or so most prominent artists, but that much m…

If the statistic is (almost) zero, det xoo'xoo (almost) equals det xo'xo, and the multicollinearity among the columns of xo is (almost) wholly attributable to the columns of xoo. Each step in the proposed third stage is virtually a replica of the second stage, the only difference being that …
