In The White Company (1891) and Sir Nigel (1906), Arthur Conan Doyle reconstructed the fourteenth century and explored the culture and visions of chivalry. He created many different knights with the intention of dissecting the mind and conduct of this historical type. He was concerned with his human as well as his romantic aspect, and he addressed the conflicts the divergent obligations of external duty and personal aspirations caused. Doyle’s reflections focused on the dreadful and illusory game played by knights like Sir Nigel Loring, the most curious and significant representative of idealistic and delusional chivalry in his medieval fiction. His youth and adult age show the tensions between the two worlds whose paths he must tread. His life is a long struggle for virtue and honour, oscillating between the responsibilities of a nobleman in the days of Edward III and the Hundred Years War and the pursuit of chivalry.

In his acclaimed synthesis of the Mexican Revolution of 1910, Alan Knight observed that “the social bandit's career in Academe has somewhat paralleled his life under the greenwood tree. Introduced by Professor Hobsbawm, he was initially welcomed, even feted, and he put in many appearances in academic company; but then (inevitably, after such uncritical acceptance) some academics grew leery, and the recent trend-especially among experts—has been to qualify, de-emphasise and even deny his role.”

Craig Knight, Asia Pacific Digital Business and Customer Services Manager of Eastman Chemical Company, was given a mandate to sell Eastman's philosophy for an integrated electronic supply chain, otherwise known as the Integrated System Solution (ISS), to its business partners in the region, and to encourage adoption. Having invested in a state-of-the-art technical architecture that would support interconnectivity with all parties along the supply chain, Eastman was keen to realise the full benefits to be gained from an integrated e-supply chain on a global scale. Following numerous rounds of discussion with key business partners in the Asia Pacific region, some progress had been made. Nagase & Co., Ltd. of Japan had agreed to adopt ISS connections with Eastman, but had some reservations regarding the extent of integration. Although the benefits of integration were proven, suppliers, customers, distributors and other interested parties were faced with numerous limitations and considerations that would have significant implications on their established business processes and even the shaping of their corporate strategy. Adoption was not a simple choice. Craig understood these shortcomings and was making every effort to ease the adoption process by identifying the longer-term benefits to Nagase and other business partners of applying XML technology to their businesses.

The Thirteenth Company Law Directive (“the Directive”) seeks to create a level playing field within the Community so as to allow EU companies to freely establish themselves in the EU through the acquisition of control over EU listed companies. In this context, the Directive prohibits the board of the target company from taking any action that could result in the frustration of the bid without express shareholder consent (the neutrality rule). Nevertheless, the Directive allows the board of the target company to seek a competitive bidder (a white knight) to ward off a public bid. The Directive requires Member States to provide for legislation on competing bids. The question may be raised whether the discretion left to Member States in this regard will not bring into jeopardy the objectives of the Directive. The answer to this question is complex, more particularly in the light of the opt-outs that are incorporated in the Directive. As the Directive does not provide for a comprehensive harmonization, the article discusses to what extent the powers of Member States and the freedom of EU companies in the field of takeover law are affected by primary Community law. Finally the authors look at the remedies which are available for shareholders or bidders suffering a prejudice as a result of a corporate decision (in particular with respect to a competing bid) that complies with the national rules on takeover bids but is contrary to the Directive or the EC Treaty.

I first met George Mosse in late August 1967. That summer I carried my worn copy of his book on the roots of Nazi ideology, The Crisis of German Ideology: Intellectual Origins of the Third Reich (1964), with Hubert Lanzinger's bizarre painting of Hider as a German knight on the cover, to Salzburg where I studied German before going on to graduate school at the University of Wisconsin. Though I admired the book, it did not prepare me for meeting the man. In 1967 I drove out to the Midwest from New York in my VW bug. To my surprise, as soon as I arrived in Madison, someone pointed him out, sitting on the Terrace of the Wisconsin Memorial Union in his short sleeve shirt, smoking his pipe, and arguing intensely with a group of students who were planning to sit in to block the Dow Chemical Company campus recruiter in the Fall (Dow was chosen because the company was manufacturing napalm).

Marketing can be very profitable for a company and the success of well-known companies is often accompanied by a successful marketing strategy. Bill Bowerman and Phil Knight founded the largest sportswear firm in the world, Nike, under the name Blue Ribbon Sports in 1964. The company changed its name to Nike in 1971, and as the industry leader, it ascended to become one of the top sports brands in the world, with revenues far exceeding those of its competitors and a market share of 38.23% of the entire industry, and is widely recognised in the sports industry for its strong marketing capabilities. It has positioned itself as an active brand with people's aspirations, comfort and national values in mind and has achieved great success worldwide. In this paper, authors will use Nike as case study and conduct an in-depth analysis of the marketing strategies used by Nike personalised customization, content marketing, social media, and hungry marketing. Combined with a comprehensive analysis of relevant literature and market data, consumer demand for unique, bespoke, personalised experiences can be met by personalisation, increasing customer loyalty and generating more business for the company. Content marketing builds consumer awareness and loyalty through the creation of engaging content and effectively communicates brand image and values. The rise of social media has provided consumers with an avenue to identify product needs and reference the buying behaviour of others, while helping to build brand awareness and positive emotional communication. Hunger marketing creates higher brand value and consumer demand through scarcity and limited sales strategies, further enhancing Nikes uniqueness and price premium. The author also uses the current emerging sports brands lululemon and lining as references and uses the successful development strategies of these two brands to provide effective marketing suggestions for Nike.

Batik was one of Indonesia's cultural heritages that had been recognized worldwide. Batik in Indonesia was diverse in terms of products and producing regions. One of the Batik-producing areas in Indonesia was Masaran in Sragen Regency. Batik producers in Kliwonan had their business names complete with logos as trademarks. One form of this was using names and images of wayang characters in trademarks, which had been done for a long time. This study analyzed four Batik company logos in Kliwonan Village, Masaran District, Sragen Regency, which were found using images of puppet figures, namely Janoko Kembar Batik, Sadewa Batik, Dewi Brotojoyo Batik, and Dewa Rama Batik. The research phase begins with data collection in the form of visual logos and literature related to the meaning of puppet figures. Data analysis is carried out by identifying the visual elements of the logo, including colors, illustrative images, typography, and layout as the first sign system (denotation). The denotational data is then read using a second sign system (connotation), which involves analyzing the characters of the puppet characters. The character of the puppet character that is understood is then discussed in a cultural context (myth). Roland Barthes' semiotic analysis is used to describe signs through first-order meaning (denotative), second-order meaning (connotative), and interpretation of meaning in cultural contexts (myth) The reading of the logo sign system was confirmed by interviews with the Batik entrepreneurs. The research results described the system of signs in denotation, connotation, and mythical meaning in the logos studied, which was in line with the application of visual elements and design principles. This research concluded that wayang could be used to discover self-identity for brand owners. The visual formation of brand identity in this study occurs through the selection of illustrations of images, colors, typography, and personal layout by brand owners. Illustrations of puppet characters are selected from the types of knights and princesses that give good character meaning. The selection of knight and princess characters can be a logo design model that uses puppet characters.

This document contains a meta-commentary on the article that I co-authored with Dr. Corry Cropper entitled Breaking the Duel's Rules: Brantôme, Mérimée, and Melville, that will be published in the next issue of Essays in French Literature and Culture, and an annotated bibliography of primary and secondary sources featuring summaries and important quotes dealing with duels, honor, honor codes, cheating, historical causality, chance, and sexuality. Also, several examples of film noir are cited with brief summaries and key events noted. The article we wrote studies two instances of cheating in duels: one found in Brantôme's Discours sur les duels and the other in Prosper Mérimée's Chronique du règne de Charles IX, and the traditional, as well as anti-causal, repercussions they had. Melville's Le Deuxième souffle is also analyzed with regards to the Gaullist Gu Minda and the end of the aristocratic codes of honor that those of his generation dearly respected but that were overcome by the commercial world of republican law and order.

Opérations particulièrement complexes, les offres publiques d'acquisition ne cessent de faire parler d'elles, plus particulièrement lorsqu'elles présentent un caractère hostile pour la société visée. De nombreux efforts législatifs ont été mis en œuvre en vue d'encadrer les OPA et de lutter contre les prises de contrôle rampantes. L'analyse du droit positif permet de mettre en lumière ces différents efforts ainsi que leur mise en œuvre à travers diverses techniques par les sociétés visées. Ces dernières ont par ailleurs développé un certain nombre de mécanismes de défense anti-OPA particulièrement efficaces, mais se révélant le plus souvent insuffisants face à l'ingéniosité dont peut faire preuve l'initiateur. Le droit positif montre ainsi ses limites face à des pratiques qui ne cessent d'évoluer. L'analyse prospective du droit anti-OPA permet d'observer les nouvelles mutations que subit le droit positif au regard des nouveaux enjeux économiques. Elle permet également d'envisager de nouveaux modes d'appréhension des OPA hostiles. Il est ainsi possible d'observer que le gouvernement d'entreprise prend une place considérable dans la vie des sociétés cotées. De même, la montée en puissance de la régulation et l'interventionnisme de l’État sont de plus en plus marqués ; et les salariés s'impliquent de plus en plus dans la gestion de l'entreprise. L'ensemble de ces paramètres marquent un glissement progressif vers une réorganisation du mode de fonctionnement des sociétés, ce qui a amené au développement du soft law, un droit à la frontière du droit positif et des pratiques des sociétés. Le soft law constitue à ce titre une approche inédite des OPA hostiles, dont l'analyse permet de cerner les apports liés à la mutation du droit positif et d'envisager l'émergence de nouveaux moyens de défense. Celui-ci doit toutefois demeurer complémentaire au cadre législatif et réglementaire existant

L'objectif de cette thèse est d'analyser le système juridique français et brésilien concernant les stratégies de défense contre les offres publiques d'acquisition visant à prendre le contrôle des sociétés cotées en bourse. Les offres publiques d'acquisition font l'objet d'un vif débat, plus particulièrement lorsqu'elles présentent un caractère hostile pour la société cible. En France, de nombreux efforts législatifs ont été mis en œuvre en vue d'encadrer les OPA et de lutter contre les prises de contrôle rampantes. L'analyse du droit positif permet de mettre en lumière ces différents efforts ainsi que leur mise en œuvre à travers diverses techniques par les sociétés visées. Grâce à l'analyse juridique des stratégies anti-OPA en France, le système brésilien peut prendre connaissance de cette expérience et trouver la meilleure approche juridique pour les sociétés cotées ayant un capital flottant important. Au Brésil, la récente vague d'IPO a été possible grâce à la réforme dans la bourse BM&FBOVESPA. Dorénavant, la BM&FBOVESPA présente le scénario idéal pour prendre le contrôle des sociétés cotées. Ainsi, l'importance de ce thème est le résultat de la dispersion de l'actionnariat après la première vague d'introduction en bourse dans le marché de capitaux brésilien, et en France, elle se traduit par l'évolution dans environnement légal des défenses anti-OPA face à des pratiques qui ne cessent d'évoluer
The objective of this thesis is to analyse the French experience and the Brazilian legal environment concerning the defense strategies against hostile corporate takeovers aimed at taking control over public companies. Through the analysis of the French legal system of the anti-takeover strategies, the Brazilian system will be able to acquire this experience and find the best legal approach for Brazilian public companies with dispersed ownership. The importance of this theme is the result of the ownership dispersion following the first IPOs in the current Brazilian securities exchange market, which provides the ideal scenario for taking control of these publicly-traded companies, as well as the changes and the evolution in the French legal environment

AbstractIn the European Union, SMEs represent as much as 99% of businesses, but only 3 out of 10 companies have some international involvement. EU policy makers perceive SMEs internationalization as a desired path for global growth; thus, they have put forward certain tools which aim to boost the pace and scope of internationalization, i.e., by creating and facilitating access to support activities, sharing information, promoting cluster and networking initiatives, making support schemes consistent throughout the EU, etc. (Della Corte, Handbook of research on startegic Management in Small and Medium Enterprises. IGI Global, 2014). However, a vital point in creating a successful internationalization framework requires understanding that SMEs internationalization models may and do differ from those of multinational enterprises (MNEs). SMEs have a different structure, and they act differently, since their aims vary from those of MNEs (Knight and Liesch, Journal of World Business 51(1): 93–102, 2016; Buckley, Journal of World Business, 51(1): 74–82, 2016).Former studies of European SMEs indicate that there are specific traits of company characteristics that determine their internationalization process. Amongst the distinguished factors, size, activities performed, age, and experience counted as the most significant determinants of the expansion. However, these findings refer to occurrences dating back at least 5 years. In the era of rapid digitalization and—still—ongoing globalization, the impact of these factors might have diminished, making place for others. Therefore, the rising importance of digitalization calls for the need to identify new barriers and opportunities for SMEs to become international.The aim of this chapter is to see whether and how digitalization has influenced the internationalization models of Polish SMEs. We do not provide quantitative analysis that would allow us to statistically verify hypotheses on that matter; however, given the recent developments of the business world and internationalization trends, we assume that digitalization has had an impact on how companies expand abroad nowadays. The study has a screening aim and should allow us to determine whether, in the case of the Polish context, the matter requires further pursuit. The remainder of this chapter is structured as follows: first, we discuss the internationalization models which commonly referred to the international expansion of SMEs. Secondly, we discuss how digitalization can influence the process and its determinants. Finally, we present our research results based on quasi-focus group discussion with Polish SMEs. The study concerned the impact the digitalization has on the internationalization experience of those companies.

AbstractDeployable structures have become increasingly popular due to their ability to transform from a compact form into a larger structure. They are also typically lightweight, resulting in a lower carbon footprint than heavy permanent building methods. These structures are popular within the field of architecture, as well as in robotics, aerospace engineering, and other fields.This paper explores the design and development of a deployable hyperboloid structure with a connected knitted membrane. The knitted material is specifically designed to stretch and fit the transforming geometry of the hyperboloid. This is achieved by manipulating the types of yarn used across the membrane, as well as the number of short rows in the knit material, to create a more specified material. The design for this material was developed using Rhino3d and Grasshopper. Throughout the design and fabrication process, there was a feedback loop between the digital design models and physical material test samples to ensure that the knit would fit the final hyperboloid structure. The result is a two-meter-tall structure when upright and a two-meter-diameter circle when collapsed, with a knit membrane that supports the structure and transforms seamlessly by stretching and shrinking to the different shapes of transformation.

Abstract Prior to being acquired in a leveraged buyout (LBO) in 1986, Beatrice Food Company had three major businesses—U.S. food, consumer products, and international food—and was arguably the largest packaged food and consumer products company in the United States. In August 1985 the LBO firm Kohlberg, Kravis, Roberts & Company made an offer to buy the company, and, after failing to elicit a white knight (a company, friendly to existing management, that offers a competing bid with the goal of defeating the original offer), Beatrice’s board accepted a sweetened offer in February 1986. The deal cost $8.2 billion and was hailed as “the deal of the century.”

Abstract The first Whitefriars company, or the ‘King’s Revels’, was a short lived failure: a boys’ company that survived just over a year, leaving behind it a flotilla of lawsuits and prison terms for debt. Its eight known plays are tawdry and imitative. Two were revived from earlier performances and four were composed by playwrights/ shareholders who had written, at most, one other play. Those plays which are conclusively accepted as written for the Whitefriars repertory are Lording Barry’s Ram Alley (16w), John Day’s Humour out qf Breath (1608), Gervase Markham and Lewis Machin’s The Dumb Knight (1608),John Mason’s The Turke (1609), and Edward Sharpham’s Cupid’s Whirligig (1607).1 The quarto editions of these five plays boast of performances ‘by the Children of the Kings Reuels’.2 In addition, I follow Harold Hillebrand in maintaining thatJohn Day’s Law Tricks (1608) was part of the Whitefriars repertory.

Chapter 6 asks readers to consider the position of a property developer within the UK volume housebuilding sector. It contains a tripartite story that portrays a company director based on documentary analysis and real events, including everyday interactions and observations from industry. Part A examines common perceptions of property developers within popular culture and the architectural profession especially. Part B presents ‘George’, a composite character based on members of a fictional board of directors at development company ‘Pink & Knight’. The story then shifts from a narration of George, as character, to George as narrator. Part C presents George’s thinking around a staff symposium called ‘Back-To-Basics’, which is used by the author to roll-call Pink & Knight directors, as well as unpack everyday operational challenges and business decisions, including investment in product review and exploring design ‘tweaks’. The story extends empathy towards an actor rarely captured by research and invites readers to look beyond popular stereotypes that cast developers as villains. Here the developer is presented as a built environment professional and visionary change-maker; one committed to developing a ‘needs oriented’ retirement-living product, while keeping a close eye on build cost, profit margins and sustaining livelihoods.

Abstract Nike’s founder-leader Phil Knight and his emerging corporation were hit by a 1980s crisis that was overcome through a hybrid combination of redevelopment and revived development. Sneaker (athletic-shoe) company Nike was led in the 1980s by a leadership team in which Rob Strasser played a key role. He helped Nike overcome its crisis by making a redeveloping diversification into popular fashion, based on a joint venture with Michael Jordan that launched the Air Jordan basketball sneakers. An accompanying revival of development, returning to rapid/innovative adaptation, led to such superb new products as the Air Trainer and Air Max sneakers. So Nike was rescued and renewed by a hybrid combination of redevelopment and revived development: in other words, hybridized development-redevelopment (HDR). It included some brilliant advertising that boosted the Nike sneakers’ appeal as ‘cool’ popular fashion. And in the 1990s‒2000s CEO Knight’s enhancement of Nike created a globally iconic corporation.

This chapter tells the story of the North Pond Hermit who lived without social contact for 30 years and the subsequent effect on his identity. As a result of his severe social isolation, Christopher Thomas Knight lost his bearings on where he fit into society and how he should interact with others. The freedom he gained in not being defined came at the cost of becoming disjointed from the world around him. The way social labels and multiple group memberships define personal identity can be understood by the Twenty Statements Test and is brought to life through the case study of Tim Fischer, the former head of diversity and inclusion at Marathon Oil, a company where the average employee is said to “bleed blue.” Identity is in constant flux and, as such, shared identities should be enjoyed for as long as they last.

With an overall company lifespan of only four years, Vertol Aircraft Corporation continued the tandem-rotor helicopter legacy of its predecessor, Piasecki Helicopter Corp., as well as research, development and testing of other V/STOL aircraft and technologies while concurrently designing two medium-lift transport helicopters that are still in worldwide use and/or production today. During this short timeframe, the company finalized production and deliveries of the H-21C Shawnee/V-44 for the US Army and international customers. The company designed and flew the world’s first tilt-wing VTOL, the NACA/Army/Navy/Vertol VZ-2A. Application of T53 and T58 turbine powerplants led to twin-turbine engine trials and flight tests with experimental H-21 variants. With Vertol’s in-theater customer support, the French Army and Navy introduced the H-21 into combat in Algeria which included the early use of armed, troop-carrying helicopters. The design, test and successful US and worldwide demonstrations of the privately-funded Vertol 107 led to development and certification of the 107-II airliner version and follow-on military transports as the Boeing H-46 Sea Knight. The contract to design and build the YHC-1B was won by Vertol in 1959 and led to the enduring Boeing H-47 Chinook.

This paper proposes a simulation-based contact pressure (CP) prediction model for prototyping electronic textile (e-textile) wearable devices for health monitoring. This study uses a CLO 3D garment simulator, and knit fabrics are investigated in different weights and polyurethane contents. The first phase presents a comparative analysis of simulated and experimental stress. Based on the understanding of simulated stress, the CP model is developed by modifying Laplace’s law and using the simulated stress. The CP model is validated using a pressure sensor to compare the actual contact pressure. The developed CP model helps garment designers and engineers select the appropriate material and product size to achieve the target pressure required for ECG health monitoring in their decision-making.

Abstract: Effective establishment of cross-cultural communication is a prerequisite for business success, regardless of the field in which it is organized or already exists. The issue ap-pears especially relevant against the background of the rapid development of infor-mation technologies, digitalization, socialization, and globalization of business. Cross-cultural communication is a process of information exchange among repre-sentatives of different cultures, which aims to establish mutual understanding through the achievement of conformity of different culturally determined value sys-tems. As the sector of information technology grows ever more complex, Information Technology (IT) professionals are called upon daily to explain technology applications to coworkers from other departments, managers, and customers. Building effective cross-cultural communication within an IT company and establishing the right communication links with stakeholders affect the effectiveness of management deci-sions both at the operational and strategic levels. Barriers to the formation of cross-cultural communication skills in the IT industry include IT professionals being used to working in isolation or functioning within tight-knit teams, differing work expectations, varying values and customs, and different levels of technological knowledge. Formation of cross-cultural communication skills should create a basis for effective establishment of communication in the development team, providing sup-port for the common organization of the group work on the processing of general in-formation and information linked to the project, creating conditions for collaborative software development, and promoting the formation and development of corporate culture in IT companies.
