Evolutionary Behavioral Economics: Essays on Adaptive Rationality in Complex Environments
Creators: name: Benincasa, Stefano
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Trento
Year: 2020

description: Against the theoretical background of evolutionary behavioral economics, this project analyzes bounded rationality and adaptive behaviour in organizational settings characterized by complexity and persistent uncertainty. In particular, drawing upon the standard NK model, two laboratory experiments investigate individual and collective decision-making in combinatorial problems of resource allocation featuring multiple dimensions and various levels of complexity. In the first study, investment horizons of different length are employed to induce a near or distant future temporal orientation, in order to assess the effects of complexity and time horizon on performance and search behaviour, examine the presence of a temporal midpoint heuristic, and inspect the moderating effects of deadline proximity on the performance-risk relationship. This is relevant for organizational science because the passage of time is essential to articulate many strategic practices, such as assessing progress, scheduling and coordinating task-related activities, discerning the processual dynamics of how these activities emerge, develop, and terminate, or interpreting retrospected, current, and anticipated events. A greater or lesser amount of time reflects then a greater or lesser provision of resources, thereby representing a constraint that can greatly affect the ability to maintain a competitive advantage or ensure organizational survival. In the second study, the accuracy of the imitative process is varied to induce a flawless or flawed information diffusion system and, congruently, an efficient or inefficient communication network, in order to assess the effects of complexity and parallel problem-solving on autonomous search behaviour, clarify the core drivers of imitative behaviour, control for the degree of strategic diversity under different communication networks, and evaluate individual as well as collective performance conditional to the interaction between the levels of complexity and the modalities of parallel problem-solving. This is relevant for organizational science because imitating the practices of high-performing actors is one of the key strategies employed by organizations to solve complex problems and improve their performance, thereby representing a major part of the competitive process. The project is intended to contribute grounding individual and collective behaviour in a more psychologically and socially informed decision-making, with a view to further the research agenda of behavioral strategy and sustain the paradigm shift towards an evolutionary-complexity approach to real economic structures.

description: Observations of the Earth as a planet using the earthshine technique (i.e. looking at the light reflected from the darkside of the Moon), have been used for climate and astrobiology studies. They provide information about the planetary albedo, a fundamental parameter of the Earth's energy balance. Here we present for the first time, observations of the earthshine taken at high spectral resolution. The high spectral resolution was chosen in order to investigate the possibility of detecting metallic layers in the Earth's atmosphere of geological or meteoritic origin. The SARG echelle spectrograph at the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo in La Palma was used to acquire the earthshine data. Observations were carried out on several nights in February 2011, with the spectral resolution set at 29,000, covering a spectral range from the near-ultraviolet (360 nm) to near-infrared (1011.9 nm). While we find evidence for the detection of a Na layer in the earthshine, other atomic species are not detected, perhaps due to the low signal-to-noise ratio of the observations and the difficult telluric corrections. The Na layer is found to vary between observation dates, which we speculate is due to physical variations in mesospheric Na concentrations.

Measurement of segmental mobility during constant strain rate deformation of a poly(methyl methacrylate) glass

description: We describe an apparatus for performing constant strain rate deformations of polymer glasses while simultaneously measuring the segmental mobility with an optical probe reorientation method. Poly(methyl methacrylate) glasses were deformed at Tg - 19 K, for local strain rates between 3.7x10-5/s and 1.2x10-4/s. In these experiments, the mobility initially increases in the pre-yield regime, by a factor of 40 to 160, as compared to the undeformed PMMA glass. The mobility then remains constant after yield, even as the stress is decreasing due to strain softening. This is consistent with the view that the sample is being pulled higher on the potential energy landscape in this regime. Higher strain rates lead to higher mobility in the post-yield regime and, for the range of strain rates investigated, mobility and strain rate are linearly correlated. We observe that thermal history has no influence on mobility after yield and that deformation leads to a narrowing of the distribution of segmental relaxation times. These last three observations are consistent with previously reported constant stress experiments on PMMA glasses. The experimental features reported here are compared to computer simulations and theoretical models.

La Pace di Filocrate e l'enigma della clausola focidese
Creators: name: Franchi, Elena
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Trento
Year: 2017

description: One of the most debated topics regarding the Peace of Philocrates (346 BC) is the fate of the Phocians: were they excluded by a specific clause or not? This paper argues that if we take Demosthenes at face value the Athenians debated about more than one clause concerning the Phocians. A closer analysis of the historical, performative and memorial context of the peace negotiations, on the one hand, and of the legal proceedings against parapresbeia, on the other, suggests that the clause !"#$%&"'($%)*+%,()'($ was debated in the assembly, and then deleted, whereas the attempt to furtively reinsert it afterwards by Aeschines and Philocrates was invented by Demosthenes in order to get Aeschines into trouble and promote his own policy. For the same reason, the relevance of other Phocian clauses was emphasized. One of the main aims of the whole ?Phocian discourse? by Demosthenes was to articulate and share with the Athenians a specific version of the past in order to plot, and increase fear of, the future: the ruin of the Phocians, who were deceived (by Philip and by Aeschines) in the past, is equated with the risk the Athenians are running to be deceived (again by Philip and by Aeschines) and fall into disrepair in the future. Several war scenarios are opening up, the battle of Chaeronea is at the gate: a specific memory of the past raises anxiety levels about the future in the Athenian assembly, a fact Demosthenes is well aware of.
Providing Arms and Weapons to Parties Involved in Civil Wars: The Legal Framework for EU Member States
Creators: name: Lerer, Iotam Andrea
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Trento
Year: 2020

description: At a time when the majority of conflicts are non-international, providing arms to the legitimate government or to the opposition forces may influence and even determine the outcome of a civil war. It is, therefore, not surprising that such a provision is subject to a web of rules. This dissertation focuses on those applicable to the EU Member States, which arise from international, European, and domestic law. Sanctions regimes are an integral part of this legal framework. Of primary importance are, naturally, sanctions adopted by the Security Council under Chapter VII, but also the more controversial EU restrictive measures are accounted for. The dissertation aims to clarify to whom EU Member States can legally provide arms and weapons during a civil war. This investigation is justified also in light of the positions adopted by individual EU Member States vis-a-vis the conflicts in Libya, Syria, and Yemen, three conflicts particularly relevant in political and economic terms for the EU and its Member States. By analysing these three case studies and putting the whole legal framework to the test the dissertation sheds light on how EU Member States justify their intervention. The adoption of these specific case studies allows for the assessment of their positions both when they provide arms to parties that intervene on request of the legitimate government and when they provide support to opposition forces. Despite being EU Member States subject to common European rules on arms exports and being all party to the Arms Trade Treaty, their practice is far from uniform. The result of these differences is far-reaching and has an impact not only on the civil war where the arms are provided but also on the EU.

La Predica d'Amore: indagine su un genere parodistico quattro-cinquecentesco con edizione critica dei testi
Creators: name: Largaiolli, Matteo
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Trento
Year: 2019

description: La Predica d?Amore � un genere letterario parodico che ha conosciuto un?effimera fortuna tra la fine del Quattrocento e i primi decenni del Cinquecento. Un piccolo ma compatto corpus di testi permette di osservarne i tratti fondamentali: inserite nella secolare tradizione della parodia sacra, le prediche d?Amore, in prosa e in versi, riprendono il modello formale del sermone tardomedievale per comunicare contenuti non devoti, ma erotici. Probabilmente recitate in occasioni festive, circolavano manoscritte e a stampa, e in molti casi anonime, tra le tipografie, le corti, le piazze. Il volume descrive il genere nel suo complesso e presenta l?edizione di dodici prediche, con particolare attenzione a quella di maggior successo, attribuita a Marco Rosiglia.
La scultura trecentesca in marmo nella Lombardia orientale. Una ricognizione nelle province di Brescia, Mantova e Cremona
Creators: name: Gorio, Gigliola
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Trento
Year: 2022

description: The project aims to develop a corpus of the 14th century marble sculptures in Brescia, Mantua and Cremona. After mapping the materials localized in these territories, which was made possible thanks to the inventories of the respective Superintendencies and Dioceses, as well as the bibliography, it was possible to collect a large number of testimonies. The resulting archival investigation allowed to refine the research on the history of the pieces, to update and correct the data already reported in bibliography and to investigate unpublished works. From a methodological point of view it was considered appropriate to proceed with the stylistic analysis of the sculptures in parallel with the identification of contexts, origins, authors, models and influences. This made it possible to identify and deepen a critical chapter, the history of Gothic sculpture in this part of Lombardy, which until a few decades ago was rather neglected by studies. The development of a catalog, divided into territorial sections, aims to be an easy reference tool for scholars of Italian sculpture. Several unpublished works have emerged in Brescia and in its province. Some hypotheses have been advanced about the path of the sculptor Delaido da Lodi, active in 1301 in Gargnano, and about the artworks in and from Brescia realized by the Master of Sant?Anastasia. The Mantua area, which returned the most significant results, was analyzed from the beginning of the fourteenth century to the eve of the dalle Masegne season. During this period of time, various artists, mainly from Venice, were active in the city. Among them, the sculptor Andrea da San Felice, the anonymous artist baptized here with the name of "Maestro di Piero Maser" and Antonio da Mestre. Some of the sculptures collected can be related to Lombard artists such as the "Maestro di Viboldone", to whom a new sculpture is attributed, and Guido Frisoni, an artist mentioned in some documents preserved in the State Archive of Mantua, to whom it is now possible to trace the "Madonna with Child" in Grazie di Curtatone, thanks to the interpretation of the epigraph placed at the base. The Cremona area closes the catalogue, which stands out for the quality of the surviving works, at the expense of quantity. The famous reliefs preserved in the church of San Bassiano in Pizzighettone are exemplary of the formal refinement of the survivals of this territory.
Crowd and Hybrid Algorithms for Cost-Aware Classification
Creators: name: Krivosheev, Evgeny
Publisher: name: Universit� degli studi di Trento
Year: 2020

description: Classification is a pervasive problem in research that aims at grouping items in categories according to established criteria. There are two prevalent ways to classify items of interest: i) to train and exploit machine learning (ML) algorithms or ii) to resort to human classification (via experts or crowdsourcing). Machine Learning algorithms have been rapidly improving with an impressive performance in complex problems such as object recognition and natural language understanding. However, in many cases they cannot yet deliver the required levels of precision and recall, typically due to difficulty of the problem and (lack of) availability of sufficiently large and clean datasets. Research in crowdsourcing has also made impressive progress in the last few years, and the crowd has been shown to perform well even in difficult tasks [Callaghan et al., 2018; Ranard et al., 2014]. However, crowdsourcing remains expensive, especially when aiming at high levels of accuracy, which often implies collecting more votes per item to make classification more robust to workers' errors. Recently, we witness rapidly emerging the third direction of hybrid crowd-machine classification that can achieve superior performance by combining the cost-effectiveness of automatic machine classifiers with the accuracy of human judgment. In this thesis, we focus on designing crowdsourcing strategies and hybrid crowd-machine approaches that optimize the item classification problem in terms of results and budget. We start by investigating crowd-based classification under the budget constraint with different loss implications, i.,e., when false positive and false negative errors carry different harm to the task. Further, we propose and validate a probabilistic crowd classification algorithm that iteratively estimates the statistical parameters of the task and data to efficiently manage the accuracy vs. cost trade-off. We then investigate how the crowd and machines can support each other in tackling classification problems. We present and evaluate a set of hybrid strategies balancing between investing money in building machines and exploiting them jointly with crowd-based classifiers. While analyzing our results of crowd and hybrid classification, we found it is relevant to study the problem of quality of crowd observations and their confusions as well as another promising direction of linking entities from structured and unstructured sources of data. We propose crowd and neural network grounded algorithms to cope with these challenges followed by rich evaluation on synthetic and real-world datasets.

description: We find the asymptotic formula for quasinormal mode frequencies omega_n of the Dirac equation in a Schwarzschild-AdS_D background in space-time dimension D > 3, in the large black-hole limit appropriate to many applications of the AdS/CFT correspondence. By asymptotic, we mean large overtone number n with everything else held fixed, and we find the O(n^0) correction to the known leading O(n) behavior of omega_n. The result has the schematic form omega_n =~ n Delta(omega) + A ln(n) + B, where Delta(omega) and A are constants and B depends logarithmically on the (D-2)-dimensional spatial momentum k parallel to the horizon. We show that the asymptotic result agrees well with exact quasinormal mode frequencies computed numerically.

description: Using the simple case of Blasius similarity solution, we illustrate a recently developed general method that reduces a strongly nonlinear problem into a weakly nonlinear analysis. The basic idea is to find a quasi-solution $F_0$ that satisfies the nonlinear problem and boundary conditions to within small errors. Then, by decomposing the true solution $F=F_0+E$, a weakly nonlinear analysis of $E$, using contraction mapping theorem in a suitable space of functions provides the existence of solution as well as bounds on the error $E$. The quasi-solution construction relies on a combination of exponential asymptotics and standard orthogonal polynomial representations in finite domain.

description: Using a geographical scale-free network to describe relations between people in a city, we explain both superlinear and sublinear allometric scaling of urban indicators that quantify activities or performances of the city. The urban indicator $Y(N)$ of a city with the population size $N$ is analytically calculated by summing up all individual activities produced by person-to-person relationships. Our results show that the urban indicator scales superlinearly with the population, namely, $Y(N)\propto N^β$ with $β>1$ if $Y(N)$ represents a creative productivity and the indicator scales sublinearly ($β<1$) if $Y(N)$ is related to the degree of infrastructure development. These coincide with allometric scaling observed in real-world urban indicators. We also show how the scaling exponent $β$ depends on the strength of the geographical constraint in the network formation.

description: With the following essays, our goal is to bring together scholars from different fields in order to trace the history, politics, beliefs, attitudes, and values of conservative cultures and to explore an obscure, but perhaps still viable common ground of liberalism and conservatism in the United States. The articles also demonstrate the heterogeneity of conservatism. As a loose coalition of anti-communists, libertarians, and traditionalists in the fifties, the movement has incorporated Christian conservatives, nationalists, and foreign policy hawks throughout the second half of the twentieth century. These groups often pursue different political and social agendas that, more often than not, cause inner tension within the movement.

description: Jamming crossovers occur at zero temperature in assemblies of particles interacting via finite range repulsive potentials, when on increasing the density particles make contacts with those of subsequent coordination shells. Density anomalies, including an increased diffusivity upon isothermal compression and a negative thermal expansion coefficient, are the finite temperature signatures of the jamming crossovers. In this manuscript we show that the jamming crossovers are correlated to an increase of the non affine response of the system to density changes, and clarify that jammed systems evolve upon compression through subsequent Eshlby-like plastic instabilities.

description: Brazil, one of the world's largest producers and exporters of Robusta coffee can experience droughts and poor harvest and becomes a temporary importer of Robusta. The 2016-17 drought lowered Brazilian Robusta production and depleted stocks. Imports of one million 60-kg bags of Robusta coffee were temporarily allowed in the spring of 2017. An import ban was set before imports occurred, due to rent-seeking pressures of coffee farmers. We analyze the welfare and trade implications of this drought episode and coffee import ban for various actors in the Robusta bean and soluble markets. The ban increased Brazilian Robusta producers’ welfare between $174 and $277 million nearly offsetting the impact of the drought. The ban hurt Brazilian soluble processors by raising their cost by 10% and lowered final consumers’ surplus in Brazil between $109 and $173 million. Deadweight losses were small as these markets are price inelastic. Major Robusta exporters lost 32 to 69 thousand metric tons (tmt) of exports to Brazil and faced up to 9 % lower prices on their total exports of Robusta. Foreign consumers of Brazilian soluble coffee lost between $62 and $107 million of consumer welfare because of higher prices. The world price in the absence of the ban would have been 12$/bag higher for these stakeholders. The import ban benefited Robusta buyers in the rest-of-the-world (RoW). The drought itself created large rents for the RoW net exporters of Robusta but at the cost of net importers of Robusta beans and soluble coffee, globally.

description: In March 2022, the Karnataka High Court in Resham v. State of Karnataka upheld a ban on the hijab in public educational institutions imposed by the then Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) led state government. In doing so, the court endorsed the state’s supposed interest in preserving unity and fostering fraternity and also judged the case based on the nature of the religious practice under scrutiny. Sartorial uniformity was thus treated as an equalizer, where its sanctity was sought to be maintained at the expense of an access to education. The focus on discipline as a fundamental value to be protected was also evident in the Indian Supreme Court’s split verdict in Aishat Shifa v. State of Karnataka in October 2022, on the constitutionality of the ban. More important however was the language of argumentation that seemingly entrenched assumptions that were taken for granted and stated in a matter-of-fact manner, mainly on the contentions and contestations around the meaning of secularism and pluralism in India. My larger aim, following from these legal developments, is to lay out the problem space of constitutionalism in a plural and secular nation within the political conjuncture of the rise and consolidation of Hindu majoritarianism. I suggest that secularism and pluralism form (and have always formed) a dialectic, that has implications for its determination of meaning in constitutional politics and deliberation. This thesis attempts to explicate this dialectic. What does this mean for our fundamental presumptions about the constitutional order? By developing my conceptual and analytical categories, I suggest that the problem and challenge that confronts constitutionalism in India is the use of constitutionalism as a terrain of majoritarian politics. The co-production of secularism and pluralism as formative of a political community which is fundamentally antithetical to the Hindutva project, thus necessitates its appropriation as a discursive counter-strategy by the Hindu right. While this framework informs my broader understanding, I attempt to take this forward by drawing on a few cases and political moments empirically, and the hijab judgments more specifically.
A Possible Hoard of Judaean and Nabataean Coins from Cyprus
Creators: Harvey, Craig A.
Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2015

This article presents a group of 57 Judaean and Nabataean bronze coins said to have been found on the Karpas Peninsula in Cyprus, donated to the ANS in 1978. Although the existence of this group has been mentioned by two prior publications, these coins are presented here for the first time fully and properly identified and analyzed. In addition to discussing the cohesion of this group as an ancient hoard, this article examines the context for these coins’ arrival and use in Cyprus. Although Judaean and Nabataean coins have previously been found in Cyprus, the coins presented here constitute a significant addition to this corpus.
Field Theory of the d+t -> n+alpha Reaction Dominated by a 5He* Unstable Particle

description: An effective, non-relativistic field theory for low-energy d+t -> n+alpha reaction is presented. The theory assumes that the reaction is dominated by an intermediate 5He* unstable spin 3/2+ resonance. It involves two parameters in the coupling of the d+t and n+alpha particles to the unstable resonant state, and the resonance energy level -- only three real parameters in all. All Coulomb corrections to this process are computed. The resultant field theory is exactly solvable and provides an excellent description of the d+t fusion process.

Collapse or Triumph? The Modern American Conservative Movement at Sixty
Creators: name: Shermer, Elizabeth Tandy
Publisher: name: ASJ

description: Just how powerful, unified, and successful was and is American conservatism? Arguably, the conservative movement has been one of the most powerful and successful uprisings in twentieth-century American history and perhaps the whole of US history. However, reassessing its sixty-year trajectory raises serious questions about its past, present, and future trajectories. In retrospect, this juggernaut looks fragmented, disjointed, and contested. Moreover, the movement and the Republican Party that houses it also seems fractured since conservatives have struggled to govern in the past, are struggling now, and will most likely struggle in the foreseeable future. As such, there is currently a need to reexamine persistent historical myths about conservatism’s rise as well as liberalism’s supposed fall in order to best understand how the American experiment has and will continue to unfold.

description: It has been speculated that low luminosity radio-loud AGN have the potential to serve as an important source of AGN feedback, and may be responsible for suppressing star-formation activity in massive elliptical galaxies at late times. As such the cosmic evolution of these sources is vitally important to understanding the significance of such AGN feedback processes and their influence on the global star-formation history of the universe. In this paper we present a new investigation of the evolution of faint radio sources out to $z{\sim}2.5$. We combine a 1 square degree VLA radio survey, complete to a depth of 100 $μ$Jy, with accurate 10 band photometric redshifts from the VIDEO and CFHTLS surveys. The results indicate that the radio population experiences mild positive evolution out to $z{\sim}1.2$ increasing their space density by a factor of $\sim$3, consistent with results of several previous studies. Beyond $z$=1.2 there is evidence of a slowing down of this evolution. Star-forming galaxies drive the more rapid evolution at low redshifts, $z{}$1.2. The evolution is best fit by pure luminosity evolution with star-forming galaxies evolving as $(1+z)^{2.47\pm0.12}$ and AGN as $(1+z)^{1.18\pm0.21}$.

description: We investigate magnetic domain wall (MDW) dynamics induced by applied electric fields in ferromagnetic-ferroelectric thin-film heterostructures. In contrast to conventional driving mechanisms where MDW motion is induced directly by magnetic fields or electric currents, MDW motion arises here as a result of strong pinning of MDWs onto ferroelectric domain walls (FDWs) via local strain coupling. By performing extensive micromagnetic simulations, we find several dynamical regimes, including instabilities such as spin wave emission and complex transformations of the MDW structure. In all cases, the time-averaged MDW velocity equals that of the FDW, indicating the absence of Walker breakdown.

description: We study the zero channel radius limit of Wigner's R-matrix theory for two cases, and show that it corresponds to non-relativistic effective quantum field theory. We begin with the simple problem of single-channel n-p elastic scattering in the 1S0 channel. The dependence of the R matrix width and level energy on the channel radius, "a" for fixed scattering length a0 and effective range r0 is determined. It is shown that these quantities have a simple pole for a critical value of the channel radius. The 3H(d,n)4He reaction cross section, analyzed with a two-channel effective field theory in the previous paper, is then examined using a two-channel, single-level R-matrix parametrization. The resulting S matrix is shown to be identical in these two representations in the limit that R-matrix channel radii are taken to zero. This equivalence is established by giving the relationship between the low-energy constants of the effective field theory (couplings and mass) and the R-matrix parameters (reduced width amplitudes and level energy). An excellent three-parameter fit to the observed astrophysical factor S is found for "unphysical" values of the reduced widths.

description: MQXC is a Nb-Ti quadrupole designed to meet the accelerator quality requirements needed for the phase-1 LHC upgrade, now superseded by the high luminosity upgrade foreseen in 2021. The 2-m-long model magnet was tested at room temperature and 1.9 K. The technology developed for this magnet is relevant for other magnets currently under development for the high-luminosity upgrade, namely D1 (at KEK) and the large aperture twin quadrupole Q4 (at CEA). In this paper we present MQXC test results, some of the specialized heat extraction features, spot heaters, temperature sensor mounting and voltage tap development for the special open cable insulation. We look at some problem solving with noisy signals, give an overview of electrical testing, look at how we calculate the coil resistance during at quench and show that the heaters are not working We describe the quench signals and its timing, the development of the quench heaters and give an explanation of an Excel quench calculation and its comparison including the good agreement with the MQXC test results. We propose an improvement to the magnet circuit design to reduce voltage to ground values by factor 2. The program is then used to predict quench Hot-Spot and Voltages values for the D1 dipole and the Q4 quadrupole.

description: Time-sharing Experiments for the Social Sciences (TESS) offers researchers the opportunity to capture the internal validity of experiments. Investigators submit proposals, and TESS fields successful proposals for free on a representative sample of adults in the United States. This experiment was conducted to test an intervention to reduce the perception that equality is harmful to the advantaged group and to increase the support for equality-enhancing policies. The 2,013 total respondents were randomly assigned to read either a joint policy article (intervention condition) or a single policy article (control condition). The joint policy article proposed to reduce the racial wage gap by either a) increasing income supplement payments and tax breaks to Black and Hispanic workers while not changing income supplement payments or tax breaks for white (non-Hispanic) workers until average wages were equal or b) decreasing income supplement payments and tax breaks for white (non-Hispanic) workers while not changing income supplement payments for Black and Hispanic workers until average wages were equal. The single policy article proposed only to increase income supplement payments and tax breaks to Black and Hispanic workers while not changing income supplement payments or tax breaks for white (non-Hispanic) workers until average wages were equal. This allowed for analysis of respondents’ attitudes toward reducing the racial wage gap when policy solutions are put into perspective.
The Rise of the Small Business Owner in Progressive Era Culture
Creators: name: Dorson, James

description: Small business owners played a key role in the rise of postwar conservatism. New historians of capitalism have shown how business activism shaped the politics of the postwar era, funded the rise of movement conservatism, and endeavored to roll back the New Deal. But the image of the small businessman is also an important figure in the struggle for the cultural legitimacy of conservatism. This essay looks at the role that Progressive Era writers, such as Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Jack London, and Edgar Rice Burroughs, played in restoring the image of the small business owner—especially after the shady business practices, corruption of politics, and scandalous personal lives of the captains of industry in the preceding decades had dealt a severe blow to the image of business
