Interest and exchange rate risk and stock returns : a multivariate GARCH-M modelling approach by Beirne, John, Caporale, Guglielmo Maria, Spagnolo, Nicola

“…The econometric framework is a four-variate GARCH-in-mean model, which incorporates long-and short-term interest rates in turn. We find in most cases a positive effect of stock market returns on mean returns in each sector; by contrast, interest rates and exchange rates have a significant effect only in a few cases, respectively negative and without a clear sign pattern. …”

Architecture, festival and the city - introduction by Browne, Jemma, Frost, Christian W., Lucas, Ray

“…Whether religious or civic in nature, these events provided tangible expressions of social, cultural, political, and religious cohesion, often reaffirming a particular shared ethos within diverse urban landscapes. Architecture has long served as a key aspect of this process exhibiting continuity in the flux of these representations through the parading of elaborate ceremonial floats, the construction of temporary buildings, the ‘dressing’ of existing urban space, the alternative occupations of the everyday, and the construction of new buildings and spaces which then become a part of the background fabric of the city. …”
