Efekt zarażania a działalność organizacji
Efekt zarażania a działalność organizacji to publikacja podejmująca ważną tematykę związaną z objaśnieniem zjawiska, które wywiera istotny wpływ na działalność współczesnych przedsiębiorstw. Niejednokrotnie przesądza ono o ich przetrwaniu lub rozwoju. Zarażanie jest zjawiskiem o rozproszonym pojmowaniu, którego poznanie może się przyczynić do lepszego zrozumienia zachodzących zjawisk i adaptacji przedsiębiorstwa do zmian zachodzących w jego otoczeniu. Wzmiankowana problematyka została relatywnie słabo spenetrowana przez przedstawicieli nauk o zarządzaniu, dlatego publikacja Sławomira Wyciślaka w niemałym stopniu wypełnia lukę piśmienniczą w obszarze nauk o zarządzaniu.
Socialism: The Failed Idea That Never Dies
Socialism is strangely impervious to refutation by real-world experience. Over the past hundred years, there have been more than two dozen attempts to build a socialist society, from the Soviet Union to Maoist China to Venezuela. All of them have ended in varying degrees of failure. But, according to socialism’s adherents, that is only because none of these experiments were “real socialism”. This book documents the history of this, by now, standard response. It shows how the claim of fake socialism is only ever made after the event. As long as a socialist project is in its prime, almost nobody claims that it is not real socialism. On the contrary, virtually every socialist project in history has gone through a honeymoon period, during which it was enthusiastically praised by prominent Western intellectuals. It was only when their failures became too obvious to deny that they got retroactively reclassified as “not real socialism”.
Country Transparency and the Global Transmission of Financial Shocks
This paper considers the role of country-level opacity (the lack of availability of information) in amplifying shocks emanating from financial centers. We provide a simple model where, in the presence of ambiguity (uncertainty about the probability distribution of returns), prices in emerging markets react more strongly to signals from the developed market, the more opaque the emerging market is. The second contribution is empirical evidence for bond and equity markets in line with this prediction. Increasing the availability of information about public policies, improving accounting standards, and enhancing legal frameworks can help reduce the unpleasant side effects of financial globalization.
Hurricane in a Teacup
“The world is ending because of climate change!” Every day we are bombarded with apocalyptic warnings telling us that if we do not change our ways and dismantle our economies, we will destroy the planet. But what if it is all a cynical hoax perpetrated by power-hungry activists and politicians for their own purposes? In this book, James Wright asks that question, joining a multitude of skeptics who challenge the increasingly hysterical claims of “climate fanatics” and the science that supposedly underpins them.

Instrumentalisation of Mass Media in Electoral Authoritarian Regimes
Focusing on the case of Russia during Putin’s first two presidential terms, this book examines media manipulation strategies in electoral authoritarian regimes. Which instruments and approaches do incumbent elites employ to skew media coverage in favor of their preferred candidate in a presidential election? What effects do these strategies have on news content? Based on two case studies of the presidential election campaigns in Russia in 2000 and in 2008, this investigation identifies the critical internal mechanisms according to which these regimes work. Looking at the same country while it transformed from a competitive into a hegemonic authoritarian regime, allows a diachronic comparis...
