• Shedding a Little Bit of Light On Infamous English Moment

Dozens of books, movies, plays and other works have been produced about [Anne Boleyn] and her marriage to Henry VIII, but few have focused on the events that led to Anne's death in May 1536. [Alison Weir] has written about Anne Boleyn in several of her previous tomes about Henry's reign. This is her first to focus exclusively on Anne, let alone on the last four months of her too-short life. Yet despite the objectivity Weir tries to keep, she still treats Boleyn with compassion. She shows sympathy for Boleyn's fate, noting "her body, however, had been consigned to oblivion, for no provision was made for any stone or memorial tablet to mark the place where she lay.

• Accounting and the Pursuit of Utopia: The Possibility of Perfection in Paraguay

In the late 19th century, an attempt was made by a small group of idealistic Australian socialists to put their principles into practice in the jungles of Paraguay by establishing the utopian colonies of New Australia and Cosme. An essential ingredient to their vision was a system of exchange in which goods and services were valued, following Ricardo and Marx, according to their labor content or labor value. This required new forms of accounting to communicate and enhance a set of values, ideals, and permitted behavior which was very different from that associated with capitalism. Accounting was also to prove critical to the survival of the colonies beyond their initial establishment by the legitimacy it afforded the decision to revoke the right of members, who withdrew, to a share of a...
