The Good News and the Bad News
There is much that is attractive about Michael Burawoy’s examination of the critical turn to a public sociology. I find plausible his account of the academic nature of 1970s radical sociology especially that mobilized notions such as Althusser’s “theoretical practice.” I also was cheered to read the account of the positive developments currently in train in the USA and especially with how socia...
متن کاملConsistent Good News and Inconsistent Bad News
Good news is more persuasive when it is more consistent, and bad news is less damaging when it is less consistent.

Consistent with the hypothesis that firms use open market repurchases to reduce the agency costs of free cash flow, we find that repurchases are positively related to proxies for free cash flow a...
