چکیده
When Mao died in 1976, Russia appeared better poised than China to become an important commerical and industrial power in the global economy. Yet it is China rather than Russia that has embraced globalization and developed trade and manufacturing, exporting increasingly higher-value-added goods. The explanation for this surprising outcome in found is Chinese elites viewing globalization as their best opportunity to catch up and overtake developed nations, while Russian elites are far more guarded in their acceptance of integration. The differences are illustrated by comparing leading sectors, regional development, human capital, and corruption.

متن کاملDiagnosing Decision Quality: A Case Study in Hotel Revenue Management Decision Making
Human decision-making has often being criticized as boundedly rational, and subject to biases (e.g. Tversky and Kahneman 1974). Important information cues are often misweighted (Dawes 1979, Camerer & Johnson 1991) and feedback delays hamper learning (Sterman 1989). Providing useful decision support tools is also not a sure-win solution, as users often erroneously discount the value of the quant...
