Actually, the device lasts longer than we might expect. [Stella] and [Blanche DuBois]'s schism plays out pretty believably, particularly when both are coming at sex from different sides of the generational divide - or the century. O'[Berski]'s cultural updates are clever Instead of playing poker, the boys gather for martial arts practice and Fight Club, with not entirely predictable results. Dana Marks' band, The Napoleonic Code, renders a serviceable, live soundtrack, including Tom Waits' "Invitation to the Blues" and Screaming Jay Hawkins' "I Put a Spell on You.

Legal origins" scholars explain economic performance by a country's membership in a given "legal family." To demonstrate the proposition, they regress various indices of performance on, inter alia, that membership. These regressions are properly specified only if (a) countries cannot switch families, and (b) family membership seriously constrains legal change. If countries can switch, then family membership is endogenous to economic performance-since a country will decide whether to stay in a family with an eye to its expected economic effect.

Countries can indeed switch and borrow-easily. That ...
