MSSR, Volume 6, edited by Manfred J. Holler, offers a discussion and an analysis of large variety of socio-economic, social and political issues with an historical background. Timo Airaksinen contributes a dialectical approach to pataphysics and pataphors. Referring to Theodore Dreiser¿s novel Sister Carrie and his ¿Trilogy of Desire¿ (or ¿Cowperwood Trilogy¿) and Oscar Wilde¿s 1891 novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, Gloria McMillan demonstrates the effects and consequences of the class gaze. Andreas Pawlas and Florian Follert et al. discuss the interest-ban problem in contemporary Christianity as well its historical background, also in other religions. Emmanouil M.L. Economou offers an analysis of Athen¿s ¿turn to the seä strategy and the transformation of its economy. Mercantilism and free trade are Dan Rees¿ point of departure to study the Chinese opium wars triggered by the UK. In the context of his initiative for a better democracy Peter Emerson reviews the Dutch electoral system.

The papers "Conspiracy Theories as Fiction: Kafka and Sade" by Timo Airaksinen and "Machiavelli's Conspiracy Games Revisited" by Manfred J. Holler and Barbara Klose-Ullmann were initially commissioned by Olli Loukola (Helsinki) and Leonidas Donskis (Kaunas) for their collection of papers tentatively called Secrets and Conspiracy, in Value Inquiry Book Series: Ethical Theory and Practice (Brill, Series Editor Olli Loukola). The publication of this volume has been postponed several times and for various reasons, the final one being the lamentable death of Professor Donskis in 2016. Richard T. McClelland's analysis "Shamelessness in Jane Austen: The Case of Lady Susan" complements the two papers. It is a revised version, by the same title, published in The Journal of Mind and Behavior. An earlier version of Juergen G. Backhaus's article "Lawyers' Economics vs. Economic Analysis of Law. A Critique of Professor Posner's 'Economic' Approach to Law by Reference to a Case Concerning Damages for Loss of Earning Capacity" was published in the Munich Social Science Review in 1978. It is republished in this volume, together with an introduction by Alain Marciano. The volume closes with Heinz D. Kurz's interpretation of "Classical Political Economy."
