Decadence and Decay: Visual Culture of the Weimar Republic, 1919-1933 Research Paper

 
The visual culture of the Weimar Republic vitally inspired many threads of European Modernism through its vibrant and nuanced engagement with new systems of urbanity. Sociopolitical, economic, and sexual roles are just a few of the modes of change affected by Weimar Modernism in the broader context of the European stage. Feminism, political engagement, and aesthetic theories in Europe and the UK were crucially influenced by visualities and discourses to emerge from the glitter and grit of the Metropolis in Germany.
In the first component of the assignment, students will build on their visual analysis by choosing additional works of art/design for comparison and write a research paper. The second component of this assignment is to engage in a studio project relating the student’s visual analysis research and one societal theme discussed in class (sociopolitical, economic, etc.). This studio project can be a theoretical visualization, a collection, a product design, etc. This assignment is intended to contextualize the visual analysis, and to engage with studio practice from a historically inspired perspective. The paper should be 6 pages in length, double ­spaced, using 12­ point Times New Roman font. Use the Chicago style for citations and bibliography. Students need at least six sources. You must limit your use of Internet sources, and you must include: a. At least one academic journal article; b. At least two books (one of your books must be an academic text, published by a university press); c. Primary sources (actual period documents and/or objects); and d. Secondary sources (writings about your topic by critics, historians, and theorists).

The first part of this research paper, I am going to analysis my favorite art works “senecio” and “Cat and Bird” by Paul Klee. I will also do an comparison research paper on two artworks. The second part, I am going to talk about my own design which is a poster. The poster is inspired by Bauhaus design, and I will compare the work I did and Paul Klee did.

Bank capital and solvency risks:

 
Bank capital and solvency risks:
given balance sheet,Retail deposits rate
Bonds and other long term loans rate
Short term wholesale loans rate.
1. What is the probability that the bank is insolvent a year ahead?
2. What is the expected – or average ‐ return on the equity over the year? (remember the shareholders have limited liability so this calculation is not straightforward and you definitely cannot do it with a pocket calculator!).
3. Devise a fair scheme to pay the holders of all the debt of the bank if the bank is insolvent. (Take note of the fact that there are three types of debt and each has been promised a different interest rate and each has provided a different amount of debt).
4. Assuming that there was no change in the return promised on all types of funding or in the returns on assets, how much of the deposits of the bank would need to switched to equity funding for the chances of insolvency to be halved?
5. Could the situation described in question 4 be an equilibrium? If it is not an equilibrium what might change?

The case: Barclays’ interest rate scandal (the Libor scandal) in 2012
Conduct research on and analyze the Barclays’ crisis, then write a crisis case study paper on it. The crisis case study paper should include:

(1) An historical overview of the organization, its brands and or services.
(2) A chronological tracing and a critical assessment of the crisis. Consider conducting research by obtaining organizational documents, official statements, and media reports. Make sure to include direct quotes gathered from these documents to give the case study flavor. Make sure you include in-text citation of research.
(3) An analysis, guided by appropriate theory of the organization’s response to the crisis (e.g. Benoit’s theory of image restoration, news framing theory, situational crisis communication theory etc.).
(4) An assessment of the success or failure of the organization’s actions or communication strategies based on effects, aesthetics, ethics, or comparison to other cases. Select any of the lessons from the course text, Effective Crisis Communication that you feel helps explain the crisis and crisis response (feel free to mix and match lessons). At the end of the crisis case study paper , you should be able to clearly state the lessons that were learned from the Barclay’s case.
(a digital version of the textbook Effective Crisis Communication will be uploaded to this order. The lessons introduced in the textbook can be found at the end of the chapter 3, chapter 5 and chapter 7. Pick a few lessons that you think are relevant to the Barclays’ case to discuss in your paper.)

Game Theory

 
This order is ideally suited for a writer who is familiar with game theory, and the penny matching game in particular, to make the description below easier to understand.

This order is to improve an existing paper about the penny matching game, which is a type of game from game theory. In this assignment, we test the results of changing the payoff of one of the possible combinations in the penny matching game. Ex. A soccer player in a penalty shoot out regular vs if the payout was increased if the kicker scored in the top left hand corner of the goal with a reward of 10,000. How does it effect the goal keeper and kickers decisions vs the zero sum game.

The paper is already written as a first draft. I wanted someone who is an expert in this subject to improve it. The first draft of the paper, the rubric, and the professor’s comments are attached. The first draft and the professor’s comments are attached in PDF form, as the comments were handwritten. The current essay includes references, but the writer is free to add or remove references as they like
