The Theory of Interstellar Trade - Related Theories and Publications

Related Theories and Publications

In 2004, Espen Gaarder Haug published a theory he titled "SpaceTime-Finance" in Wilmott Magazine to show how a series of finance calculations had to be adjusted to avoid arbitrage when hypothetical traveling at very high velocities relative to other observers (traders). He illustrated how such necessary adjustments already could be measurable at the speed of the space shuttle, but also that such calculations and adjustments was of little or no practical relevance today since we all are moving at the nearly same speed relative to the enormous speed of light.

In 2008, John Hickman at Berry College, Georgia USA published in the Journal of Astro Politics an article related to the political and cultural obstacles that could be related to hypothetical interstellar trade.

    One does not realize the historical sensation as a re-experiencing, but as an understanding that is closely related to the understanding of music, or rather of the world by means of music.
    Johan Huizinga (1872–1945)

    The real trouble about women is that they must always go on trying to adapt themselves to men’s theories of women, as they always have done. When a woman is thoroughly herself, she is being what her type of man wants her to be. When a woman is hysterical it’s because she doesn’t quite know what to be, which pattern to follow, which man’s picture of woman to live up to.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Dr. Calder [a Unitarian minister] said of Dr. [Samuel] Johnson on the publications of Boswell and Mrs. Piozzi, that he was like Actaeon, torn to pieces by his own pack.
