The Red Queen: sex and the evolution of human nature
Автор: Ridley Matt
Год издания:
Почему мы занимаемся сексом? Одной из главных причин, утверждает Ридли, является борьба с болезнью. Постоянно объединяя и рекомбинируя гены каждого поколения, "людские гены на шаг опережают организмы-паразиты", укрепляя тем самым устойчивость к бактериям и вирусам, которые вызывают смертельные заболевания или эпидемии. Теория "Красной Королевы", получившая название от имени шахматной фигуры в Зазеркалье Кэрролла, которая функционирует, не двигаясь с места, эта гипотеза является лишь одной из спорных идей, которые были изложены в этом остроумном, элегантном письменном исследовании. Ридли, лондонский ученый и бывший редактор Economist утверждает, что мужчины полигамны по той очевидной причине, что тот пол, которому приходится тратить больше времени и энергии на создание и воспитание потомства, будет стремится избежать дополнительных спариваний. Женщины, хотя и гораздо меньше заинтересованы в нескольких партнерах, будут прелюбодействовать, если окружены посредственными партнерами. По не совсем убедительному выводу Ридли даже свойства интеллекта завязаны на секс: артистизм, индивидуальность, изобретательность и связанные с этим черты, которые делают людей сексуально привлекательными.

Social Capital and Strategy Effectiveness: An Empirical Study of Entrepreneurial Ventures in a Transition Economy
Автор: I. Manev
Год издания:
Although new ventures’ competitive positioning and their founders’ social networks are both recognized as important in the context of transition economies, not much is known about their multiplicative effect on performance. We build on the strategic management literature and social network theory to develop theoretical predictions about the role of competitive strategies and social capital for entrepreneurial performance. These are tested with survey data from Bulgaria. We find that both the venture’s competitive strategic positioning and the founder’s networking positively influence performance. The hypothesized moderating effect of networking for the relationship between differentiation strategy and performance received only tentative support. Contrary to expectations, we find a negative moderating effect of networking for the relationship of cost leadership with performance. These results suggest that the entrepreneur’s network plays a role in shaping how strategies influence performance by possibly upholding differentiation and deemphasizing cost leadership strategy. Implications for managerial practice and public policy are discussed.
