Abstract:
Purpose This paper aims to propose a new model of economic behaviour in which activities are led by greed rather than by the traditional formal rules of capitalism. Design/methodology/approach This paper relies on the empirical observation of bad practices that developed in synchrony during the collapse of the former communist economic system and the rise of global financial capitalism. Both were fuelled by greedy behaviour of asset grabbing, and paved the way to an emerging greed-led economic system. Findings First, microeconomic individual greedy behaviours that drive asset grabbing are identified, such as rigged or corrupt privatisation drives, subprime mortgage loans, Ponzi schemes, lending to insolvent clients, bad loan securitisation, stock options, fraudulent accounting and online betting on fixed matches. Then systematic changes in the traditional formal rules of capitalism that favour those having adopted a greedy strategy are pointed at; greedy behaviour is institutionalised when these capture the state and successfully lobby for rules change. Contrary to capitalism, systemic greed uses asset grabbing, instead of capital accumulation, as its major means for wealth maximisation without constraint, in a winner-take-all economy beneficial to oligarchs. Research limitations/implications The implications of this new systemic behaviour have implications for further economic modelling. Practical implications The emergence of systemic greed will have implications for the design of regulatory systems. Originality/value This paper proposes that a greed-controlled economy is replacing the traditional capitalist economy.

Abstract:
In this study, we examined the association between CEO greed and corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance with a particular emphasis on the curtailing role of corporate governance. We found that CEO greed has a negative effect on CSR, since an uncontrolled pursuit of personal gain typically reveals myopic behavior and the foregoing of investment in CSR by a greedy CEO. Additionally, we found that CEO compensation in the form of large bonuses, support, and restricted stocks options weakened the link between CEO greed and CSR. Concerning the power dynamics amongst CEOs (CEO duality and tenure), we found that CEO duality moderates the negative relation between CEO greed and CSR. We also explored the curtailing role of corporate governance (proxies represented by board gender diversity and board independence) in the association between CEO greed and CSR. Our findings show that gender diversity curtails the negative effect of CEO greed on CSR once it reaches critical mass on the corporate board. Gender critical mass also curtails the negative impact of CEO greed on CSR, even if the CEO exercises duality. Our findings have empirical and practical implications. This study contributes to the existing literature by exploring the relationship between CEO greed and CSR in Asia, a region not renowned for CSR performance. This study also provides evidence for the curtailing role of compensation and governance factors in the negative relationship between CEO greed and CSR.

Abstract:
Perceptions of greed permeate the popular business and management environment, yet the scholarly literature in these areas has given scant attention to greed and perceptions of greed. In three laboratory studies, I investigated both the antecedents and consequences of perceived greed. Contrary to a number of literatures' treatment of greed as simply a synonym for selfishness, I proposed that the three antecedents of perceived greed are distributive injustice, inference of a selfish motive to acquire, and relative deprivation. I then explored four key outcomes of perceived of greed: personal anger, moral outrage, punishment behaviors, and social distancing behaviors. Results demonstrated that perceptions of greed are formed when an individual experiences a distributive injustice, combined with an inference of a selfish motive to acquire, and that each of personal anger, moral outrage, punishment behaviors and social distancing are consequences of perceiving others as greedy. Relative deprivation contributed to perceptions of greed, but in a manner different from the hypothesized model.

Full text
Abstract:
Thesis: S.M., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, 2018.
Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 153-156).
This thesis revisits the well-studied and practically motivated problem of minimizing a strongly convex, smooth function with first-order information. The first main message of the thesis is that, surprisingly, algorithms which are individually suboptimal can be combined to achieve accelerated convergence rates. This phenomenon can be intuively understood as "hedging" between safe strategies (e.g. slowly converging algorithms) and aggressive strategies (e.g. divergent algorithms) since bad cases for the former are good cases for the latter, and vice versa. Concretely, we implement the optimal hedging by simply running Gradient Descent (GD) with prudently chosen stepsizes. This result goes against the conventional wisdom that acceleration is impossible without momentum. The second main message is a universality result for quadratic optimization. We show that, roughly speaking, "most" Krylov-subspace algorithms are asymptotically optimal (in the worst-case) and "most" quadratic functions are asymptotically worst-case functions (for all algorithms). From an algorithmic perspective, this goes against the conventional wisdom that accelerated algorithms require extremely careful parameter tuning. From a lower-bound perspective, this goes against the conventional wisdom that there are relatively few "worst functions in the world" and they have lots of structure. It also goes against the conventional wisdom that a quadratic function is easier to optimize when the initialization error is more concentrated on certain eigenspaces - counterintuitively, we show that so long as this concentration is not "pathologically" extreme, this only leads to faster convergence in the beginning iterations and is irrelevant asymptotically. Part I of the thesis shows the algorithmic side of this universality by leveraging tools from potential theory and harmonic analysis. The main result is a characterization of non-adaptive randomized Krylov-subspace algorithms which asymptotically achieve the so-called "accelerated rate" in the worst case. As a special case, this recovers the known fact that GD accelerates when inverse stepsizes are i.i.d. from the Arcsine distribution. This distribution has a remarkable "equalizing" property: every quadratic function is equally easy to optimize. We interpret this as "optimal hedging" since there is no worst-case function. Leveraging the equalizing property also provides other new insights including asymptotic isotropy of the iterates around the optimum, and uniform convergence guarantees for extending our analysis to l2. Part II of the thesis shows the lower-bound side of this universality by connecting quadratic optimization to the universality of orthogonal polynomials. We also characterize, for every finite number of iterations n, all worst-case quadratic functions for n iterations of any Krylov-subspace algorithm. Previously no tight constructions were known. (Note the classical construction of [Nemirovskii and Yudin, 1983] is only tight asymptotically.) As a corollary, this result also proves that randomness does not help Krylov-subspace algorithms. Combining the results in Parts I and II uncovers a duality between optimal Krylov-subspace algorithms and worst-case quadratic functions. It also shows new close connections between quadratic optimization, orthogonal polynomials, Gaussian quadrature, Jacobi operators, and their spectral measures. Part III of the thesis extends the algorithmic techniques in Part I to convex optimization. We first show that running the aforementioned random GD algorithm accelerates on separable convex functions. This is the first convergence rate that exactly matches the classical quadratic-optimization lower bound of [Nemirovskii and Yudin, 1983] on any class of convex functions richer than quadratics. This provides partial evidence suggesting that convex optimization might be no harder than quadratic optimization. However, these techniques (provably) do not extend to general convex functions. This is roughly because they do not require all observed data to be consistent with a single valid function - we call this "stitching." We turn to a semidefinite programming formulation of worst-case rate from [Taylor et al., 2017] that ensures stitching. Using this we compute the optimal GD stepsize schedules for 1, 2, and 3 iterations, and show that they partially accelerate on general convex functions. These optimal schedules for convex optimization are remarkably different from the optimal schedules for quadratic optimization. The rate improves as the number of iterations increases, but the algebraic systems become increasingly complicated to solve and the general case eludes us.

Abstract:

I Sverige började användandet av incitamentsprogram under 1980-talet. Sedan dess har formerna för incitamentsprogram utvecklats och de har kommit att bli allt vanligare och allt mer omfattande. Efter ett antal ”bonusskandaler” under början av 2000-talet blev det vanligare att koppla incitamentsprogrammen till någon form av motprestation. Det var våra funderingar kring hur kopplingen hänger ihop som ledde oss fram till problemformuleringen om det finns något samband mellan vd:ns rörliga ersättning och bolagets aktiekurs. Vi har utifrån en positivistisk syn behandlat problemet med ett deduktivt angreppssätt. Med en kvantitativ metod har vi undersökt sambandet i 66 svenska börsnoterade bolag. Undersökningen genomfördes via datainsamling från bolagens årsredovisningar under åren 2002-2006. De data som vi erhållit har analyserats statistiskt med hjälp av bland annat regressionsanalys. Den teoretiska grunden utgörs av agentteorin som kompletteras med motivations- och förväntningsteori. Tidigare forskning visar på blandade resultat när det gäller sambandet mellan ersättning och prestation. Tydligt är att det finns en mängd olika variabler som påverkar hur väl ett samband framträder, samt att åsikterna är delade om vilka dessa kan vara. De empiriska resultaten visar att det linjära sambandet mellan rörlig ersättning och kursutveckling är mycket svagt. Detta har varit den genomgående trenden i undersökningen. Vår undersökning har därför inte kunnat fastställa att det finns något samband mellan vd:ns rörliga ersättning och bolagets aktiekursutveckling. Den låga förklaringsgraden och de låga Betavärdena leder till slutsatsen att det är andra faktorer än de vi undersökt som påverkar vd:ns ersättning.

Abstract:
The financial crisis of 2008 has been the most significant global economic phenomenon of the new century. Sudden and largely unanticipated, this crisis nonetheless marks the latest in a series of financial panics that forms a welldocumented feature of finance capitalism stretching back to the Dutch Tulip Bubble of 1637 and beyond, including such notorious crises as the South Sea Bubble of 1720, the Railway Shares panics of 1837 and 1847, the Wall Street Crash of 1929, and Black Monday in 1987. These and other crises have fostered a complex and diverse intellectual response - particularly since the South Sea Bubble - that has included interventions not only from economists and economic historians, but poets, dramatists, novelists, and others. This raises the question of whether the novel’s contribution to our wider understanding of financial crises has been fully acknowledged and assessed. In this thesis, the complex and shifting relationship between literary and non-literary responses to financial crisis is explored through an examination of the ideas of political economists, philosophers, journalists, financiers, and others, including Adam Smith, David Ricardo, Lord Overstone, Walter Bagehot, Herbert Spencer, Thorstein Veblen, Joseph Schumpeter, and J.M. Keynes, that situates their theories alongside readings of novels of financial crisis from the 1850s onward.

Full text
Abstract:
This study explores the phenomenon of domestic cannabis cultivation in the UK and examines its impact on the wider cannabis market. Cannabis growers were studied using both traditional and on-line ethnographic methods. Data was analysed both to produce a description of cannabis cultivation (and cannabis cultivators) in Britain and to analyse how domestic production of cannabis fits into our wider understanding of illegal drug markets. The thesis explores UK cannabis growing on a number of levels. Firstly it seeks to describe how cannabis is grown in Britain. Some is grown outside in natural conditions but most British cannabis is grown indoors with increasingly hi-tech cultivation methods being utilised. The method employed by an individual grower will depend on his opportunities, his intention for the crop and any ideological position which may influence his choice. We then explore who is involved in cannabis growing. At a basic level featuresdemographic and' ideological' - common to cannabis growers are considered. At a deeper level a typology of cannabis growers is offered based predominantly on motivation and ideology. The key point here is that a large number of cannabis growers seek no financial reward whatsoever for their involvement in what is essentially an act of drug trafficking. Others grow cannabis to make money, but are equally motivated by non-financial 'drivers'. Still others are mostly or entirely driven by financial considerations. These growers often display the same hall-marks as other organised crime outfits. Consumer concerns can be seen to influence the market with smaller independent 'social' and 'social/commercial' growers offering an ideo logical - ethical, even - alternative to larger scale organised crime outfits. Finally explanations for the recent surge in domestic cannabis cultivation are offered along with predictions for the future domestic production, not just of cannabis but other drugs as well.

Full text
Abstract:
In modern pop-culture, the prevalence of tropes is eminent. Without a knowledge of common themes and overgeneralizations, an author’s work will fail to attract a sufficient audience. One of these encompassing tropes includes the pirate trope. Pirate tropes range from physical aspects, such as eyepatches and tricornes, to the psychological implications of greed and villainy. Understanding the origin of tropes helps eliminate the over usage and transformation of tropes. The current study, a textual analysis, examines the popularized pirate novel Treasure Island and compares its’ tropes to the first collection of pirate biographies, A General History of Pyrates. The researcher hopes to discover many, if not all, of the tropes found in Treasure Island originated, through explicit evidence or variances, from A General History of Pyrates. The study will also utilize the New Historicism approach. Through New Historicism, the researcher will examine what historical accounts, including political, cultural, and economic strife, led Treasure Island to emerge as the most well-known pirate novel, rather than its predecessors. Thus far, the research has indicated that Treasure Island emerged as the prime pirate novel due to several factors, including America’s proximity to piracy during the 18th century. These associations include, but are not limited to: America’s trade system with pirates, proximity to pirate dwellings in North America, Americans’ desire of freedom associated with pirates, and democracy based politics practiced among outlaw captains and crewmembers. Stevenson illustrated these points in Treasure Island, which ties the novel’s timeless tropes with today’s conceptions of piracy. In addition, Stevenson used tropes from other novels associated with pirates including: Sir Walter Scott’s The Pirate; Washington Irving’s Tales of a Traveller; Captain Frederick Marryat’s “The Pirate”; Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Gold-Bug”; and several works by Daniel Defoe. Stevenson combined these tropes in Treasure Island while also using A General History of Pirates as a guide to ensure creditability. These tropes, brought to attention by Stevenson, continue to flourish in modern depictions of 18th century pirates.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation explores the universality of trauma-storing in the body and the need for contextualization when it comes to treatment. Of the two central themes addressed, the first is war-related trauma and the intersection of expressive arts therapy and South (East) Asia (Nepal and Hong Kong in particular) with its specific imagery, art, and culture, and to see how both feed into each another and can transform as a result. The question is how to locally sensitize expressive arts therapy, which has its roots in Europe and the United States, to the Hong Kong setting; more specifically, to working with Nepali women who try to make Hong Kong their new home. The dissertation suggests a holistic, locally, and culturally sensitive approach to expressive arts therapy. This means adjusting the expressive arts framework and practices to the local and cultural setting, as well as looking at the resources (myths, dance forms, breathing practices, rituals, etc.) present in the local culture and including them in the anthropological approach to trauma transformation. The second theme addressed is the importance of critically reflecting on power within therapeutic relationships, especially in trauma treatment, and recognizing the ontological underpinnings underlying therapy as well as our ‘human self-concept’, which leads to the acknowledgement of only a certain type of human experience, that of conscious, self-aware subjects in control of their acts. The latter leaves little room for understanding traumatic experiences, in which trauma victims seem to be unable to remember or shape the traumatic event. In Walter Benjamin’s dissertation, any kind of representation of our personal and collective identities is seen as a curation. When approaching history as a ‘collection’ of memories, it creates room for traumatic experiences to exist. Benjamin’s dissertation is applied to understanding trauma in such a way where it is precisely the discontinuity, the disparities, the ruptures of history and memory that make trauma visible; these are the gifts handed to the next generation. It is the piecing together of fragments and uncertainties that transforms trauma into a space of insight, creating meaning from what is known and unknown, bridging the stories and images of history present in our implicit and explicit memory. In the critical reflection on traumatology, a Foucauldian approach is taken regarding the therapist-client relationship. Foucault speaks of a top-down apparatus with policies that act under the guise of ‘protect and serve’, and language that frames the clients as a helpless victim in need of ‘betterment’ by the therapist. The only way for therapists to tackle the problem of trauma and psychotherapy, and to admit its social/cultural construction and the role of power, is to read themselves into the problem, to go beyond one-way mirroring, to analyze their pathology, and attempt to change patterns of communication that reproduce the psy-complex apparatus. In this thesis the latter is done by including the creative and analytic reflections of expressive arts therapists and of the author herself.

Abstract:
Armed groups tax. Journalistic accounts often include a tone of surprise about this fact, while policy reports tend to strike a tone of alarm, highlighting the link between armed group taxation and ongoing conflict. Policymakers often focus on targeting the mechanisms of armed group taxation as part of their conflict strategy, often described as ‘following the money’. We argue that what is instead needed is a deeper understanding of the nuanced realities of armed group taxation, the motivations behind it, and the implications it has for an armed group’s relationship with civilian and diaspora populations, as well as the broader international community. This paper builds on two distinct literatures, on armed groups and on taxation, to provide the first systematic exploration into the motivation of armed group taxation. Based on a review of the diverse practices of how armed groups tax, we highlight that a full account of their motivation needs to go beyond revenue collection, and engage with key themes around legitimacy, population control, institution building, and the performance of public authority. We problematise common approaches towards armed group taxation and state-building, and outline key questions of a new research agenda.

Abstract:
This paper expands the micro-foundations of the traditional greed and grievance non-cooperative model of civil conflict between a government and a rebel group.First, the papers model allows for greed and grievance to be orthogonal, so that they may affect each other. Second, the model allows for the reaction curves of both parties in non-cooperative games to be substitutes and not inevitably complementary. Third, the paper allows for Diaspora transfers to rebel groups.Fourth, the paper expands external aid in the form of fungible financing of government transfers buying peace. These extensions provide a better understanding of conflict persistence, the consequences of competing international aid and why sub-optimal sanctions provision (cheap talk) by the international community are frequent.

Abstract:
This paper examines whether individual investors’ green preference will be reflected in their investment decisions. It provides compelling evidence that individuals with stronger green preference invest more in green mutual funds, influenced by concerns over the physical and regulatory risks of climate change. It suggests that this behavior is not driven by financial incentives as preference-related investments may not always lead to financial gains from trading.
