City of the Falls clippings, 1833, n.d.

The clippings describe the City of the Falls and its attempts by its shareholders to sell lots to this newly developing city. The venture by shareholders W. Allan, James Buchanan, Thomas Clark, J.H. Dunn, Thomas Dixon, General Murray, James Robinson, Samuel Street and William Witla intended to favourably position their city as a destination for “affording an easy approach for the annual assemblage of the Fashionable, the Learned and the Great”. The venture failed due to the building of the Buffalo and Niagara Falls railway.

Intervención del Estado colombiano en el sector solidario

El propósito de este libro es explicar los fundamentos históricos, jurídicos, políticos y económicos que permiten al Estado colombiano incidir en el sector solidario, con base en los principios de igualdad Y libertad y en el marco del Estado social de derecho, que exige su activismo a través de algunos modelos e instrumentos de intervención económica. Para ello, se ha adoptado una taxonomía emergente que aglutina sus componentes en dos subsectores, a partir de una identidad y una racionalidad propias que los diferencia de los demás empresas capitalistas, estos son: el de las organizaciones de economía solidaria (OES) y el de las organizaciones solidarias de desarrollo (OSD). Esta visión holística posibilita aportar ciertos elementos críticos que cuestionan el comportamiento de los actores públicos, cuyo papel está definido por mandato constitucional, y el de las organizaciones, que al proceder de manera disfuncional obstaculizan el progreso económico y social del país.

Letters from Benjamin Welles to John Henry Tudor, 1799-1801

Benjamin Welles wrote these six letters to his friend and classmate, John Henry Tudor, between 1799 and 1801. Four of the letters are dated, and the dates of the other two can be deduced from their contents. Welles wrote Tudor four times in September 1799, at the onset of their senior year at Harvard, in an attempt to clear up hurt feelings and false rumors that he believed had caused a chill in their friendship. The cause of the rift is never fully explained, though Welles alludes to "a viper" and "villainous hypocrite" who apparently spread rumors and fueled discord between the two friends. In one letter, Welles asserts that "College is a rascal's Elysium - or the feeling man's hell." In another he writes: "College, Tudor, is a furnace to the phlegmatic, & a Greenland to thee feeling man; it has an atmosphere which breathes contagion to the soul [...] Villains fatten here. College is the embryo of hell." Whatever their discord, the wounds were apparently eventually healed; in a letter written June 26, 1800, Welles writes to ask Tudor about his impending speech at Commencement exercises. In an October 29, 1801 letter, Welles writes to Tudor in Philadelphia (where he appears to have traveled in attempts to recover his failing health) and expresses strong wishes for his friend's recovery and return to Boston. This letter also contains news of their classmate Washington Allston's meeting with painters Henry Fuseli and Benjamin West.
