This series of four presentations sought to examine case studies of Greek-Russian relations in the early modern and, mostly, modern period. In the choice of topics, I was guided by two considerations: first, I sought to highlight topics that, to my mind, have not yet attracted the attention they deserve in historiography. For example, although alms collections in the Russian Empire in the early modern period have been discussed repeatedly, this has not been the case until quite recently for t...

This paper examines the effect of market-entry timing on a firm’s speed and cost of entry in a setting where a firm needs to build a plant for market entry. Based on our developed analytical model, we provide seven scenarios of the market-entry timing effect on a firm’s entry speed and cost. We test hypotheses in the liquefied natural gas (LNG) industry. We use Wooldridge’s three-step instrumental variable (IV) approach to account for endogeneity bias. We find that a late entrant has (1) a shorter time-to-build and (2) a higher cost-to-build relative to an early entrant. Further, (3) the late entrant positively moderates the negative relationship of time-to-build and cost-to-build (i.e., the negative relationship of time-to build and cost-to-build becomes less negative for the late entrant). These empirical results are consistent with the prediction of when both revenue effect (i.e., revenue curve shift) and cost effect (i.e., cost curve leftward shift) exist.

As the world continues to ponder issues of equity and diversity, U.S. public schools face an expanding demographic divide between teachers and students. While diverse groups of public school students show an increase in population, the teaching workforce in the U.S. remains overwhelmingly White. The purpose of this systematic review is to examine how preservice teachers (PST) are being prepared to be culturally responsive. A total of 26 studies published between 2006 and 2020 were reviewed. The results indicate that PSTs’ learning experiences are varied and tend to be stand-alone approaches focused on changing the attitudes and beliefs of PSTs. Findings also bring to light the vagueness of terminology used in the research to define cultural groups of students, the conspicuous absence of studies related to LGBTQ+ populations, and the lack of study replications. Implications for future research are discussed.

As emerging digital technologies have been used for disruptive innovation and business models, an essential component for hospitality researchers and practitioners is to determine the role of disruptive technologies and innovation in hospitality businesses. This study synthesizes prior research on disruptive innovation and identifies disruptive technologies in the hospitality context. A thematic analysis was performed through a computer-assisted qualitative data analysis approach using 23 publicly traded hospitality companies. Results reveal that disruptive technology and innovation are among the most critical strategic aspects in contemporary hospitality firms. This study provides contributions to hospitality researchers and practitioners to implement disruptive technologies for superior business performance. This study is among the first to introduce and synthesize disruptive technologies and innovation in the hospitality context.

This study provides a new perspective on the determinants of the spread of voluntary corporate social responsibility (CSR) adoption by incorporating the potential role of its adoption by industry competitors. We find supportive evidence that firms make CSR adoption decisions in response to competitive pressure as well as institutional mimetic pressures. Based on an event history analysis of longitudinal data from a sample of 711 Korean publicly traded firms over a 12-year period, our findings suggest that the CSR behavior of competitors is positively associated with a focal firm's earlier adoption of CSR, leading to the diffusion of CSR across firms. Specifically, this study shows that the pure rivalry-driven pressure from non-leader competitors has a stronger positive relationship with earlier CSR adoption. The results also indicate that a firm's CSR adoption decision is accelerated by competitive rivalry as well as social pressures arising from institutional mimetic isomorphism.

This article examines racial capitalism from a semiotic perspective, arguing that economic value, like language and race, can be described in situated and indexical terms. I attempt to show how raciolinguistic bias in and around the workplace is linked to a larger labor market in which minoritized labor is reproduced in a systemic way, and to explore hegemonic formations of racialization in the workplace and beyond. The jumping-off point for much of my argument is the work of the historian and political theorist Cedric Robinson.

This study reports results on the ex ante predictability of stock returns using real-time stock market data in Vietnam, a frontier market, from June 2008 to June 2021. Countries classified as a frontier market are often known for currency manipulation, financial market illiquidity, and political instability. Despite the enormous risk usually posed by these inefficiencies, potential profits are large and achievable for many investors. This study provides evidence on existing a strategy to form out-of-sample long portfolios that generate statistically significant and positive mean monthly returns even in the presence of transaction costs. I also justify the magnitude of these returns by showing that they exceed those of VnIndex and MSCI Vietnam Index. The results reject the hypothesis that the stock prices in Vietnamese market follow random walks, thus oppose the stock market efficiency hypothesis. Evidence found in this study provides a better understanding of informational efficiency in a frontier equity market setting. Specifically, there are several implications on portfolio selection strategies, stock price patterns, and trading behavior bias related to Vietnamese stock market can be drawn from this study.

"This poetry anthology, with poems from poets throughout New England and from other states - is a result of Peterborough Poetry Project's second poetry contest. We invited poets, writers, and observers to submit up to three poems about New Hampshire - past, present, future, or fantasy. Forty-eight poems from the contest form this book. The poems are in three different sections by themes: People, Places, and The Wild, but readers may find that several poems have more than one theme. A poem may appear to be about nature, but also our reactions to it. Another poem may appear to be true, but might be pure fantasy. Such is the nature of poetry: read it for the obvious, then read it again to see if more reveals itself"--Back cover
