    On B******t (Frankfurt, 1986;2005) - Weekend Classics

    English Podcast starts at 00:00:00 Bengali Podcast Starts at 00:15:44 Hindi Podcast Starts at 00:31:31 Welcome into the podcast Revise and Resubmit. This is Weekend Classics. 🎙️📚Today we are diving into a razor-sharp little book with a big bite: On B******t by Harry Gordon Frankfurt, published in 2005 after its first life as a 1986 essay, brought to bookshelves by Princeton University Press. 🧠✨ Listen to this. The title makes you grin. The argument makes you flinch. The prose makes you nod. Then it makes you think again. That is why we are here. This is a book review, and I am holding a slim volume that teaches like a heavyweight. Frankfurt sets a simple trap and invites us to step in. He separates lying from the thing he calls b******t. A liar knows the truth and rejects it. A bullshitter shrugs at truth and aims only to persuade. One is a duel with facts. The other is a fog machine. 🌫️ How does he prove it? With patient definitions. With crisp logic. With a story that passes through Wittgenstein like a bright flare. Not wrong, Wittgenstein says. Just careless with accuracy. In a world that rewards hot takes, Frankfurt argues we drift from accuracy to sincerity, from evidence to performance, and the cost is truth itself. That indifference, he warns, is more dangerous than a lie, because it erodes our ability to care what is real. 📖🔥 Let me pause on the man behind the pages. Harry Gordon Frankfurt was an American philosopher with a career that reads like a corridor of thinking rooms. Professor emeritus at Princeton University from 1990 to 2002. Earlier chapters at Yale University, Rockefeller University, and Ohio State University. He wrote with a teacher’s ear and a watchmaker’s patience, and this little book clicks with that exacting rhythm. 🎓⏱️ So here we are, in Weekend Classics, where small books can change big habits. I am not here to scold your timeline. I am here to sharpen your filter. I want sentences that stand up straight. I want claims that can be checked. I want voices that care if they are right. And I want to read with you, out loud, until the fog lifts. 🗣️🔎 Thank you, Harry Gordon Frankfurt, and thank you, Princeton University Press. 🙏If you enjoyed this, hit follow on Spotify, subscribe to our YouTube channel Weekend Researcher, and find us on Amazon Prime Music and Apple Podcast. ⭐🔔🎧Here is my question for you as we begin: when you speak today, will you serve the audience, the argument, or the truth?

    The Inclusionary Effects of Performing Work (Dobusch et al. 2025) | FT50 JMS

    English Podcast Start at 00:00:00 Bengali Podcast Start at 00:18:08 Hindi Podcast Start at 00:47:15 Welcome to Revise and Resubmit 🎙️✨Today we taxi onto the runway of ideas 🛫 to explore “The Inclusionary Effects of Performing Work: A Practice-Theoretical Study of Airport Security Work.” Short sentence. Sharp point. Work isn’t background noise—it’s the beat. It speaks. It shapes. It includes. It excludes. And when people perform safety and hospitality together, something more than a shift happens. A collective happens. Recognition happens. Egalitarian relationships take off. ✈️🤝 This is Journal of Management Studies—prestigious, field-defining, FT50-level prestige 📚🏛️—published online 10 September 2025. We’re talking practice theory in motion: discourse, embodiment, material arrangements; the nexus that knits tasks, tools, and talk into belonging. Not policy on paper, but practice in hands. Not slogans, but scanners. Not HR memos, but the horizon of intelligible actions—what feels thinkable, doable, sayable—expanding as people perform the work that keeps us safe and makes us welcome. 🔐🧰🗣️ Picture the checkpoint. The tray slides. The badge glints. A greeting lands. Small acts, big outcomes. When ends like safety and hospitality are enacted together, inclusion isn’t a program—it’s a practice. It’s local. It’s situated. It’s learned, repeated, refined. Do it once; it’s protocol. Do it well; it’s culture. Do it together; it’s inclusion. 🔄🌱 Smarter sentences follow slower ones. Fast beats meet long lines. Rhythm makes meaning. That’s the joy of research like this—from Laura Dobusch, Dide van Eck, Maddy Janssens, and Marieke van den Brink—because it doesn’t just tell us what inclusion is; it shows us how inclusion works. And if work can widen the circle, then every shift can be an intervention, every handoff a hinge, every material arrangement a quiet amplifier. 📡🧩 Before we push back from the gate, hit follow on Spotify for Revise and Resubmit 🎧, subscribe on YouTube at Weekend Researcher 📺, and find us on Amazon Prime and Apple Podcast. Your support keeps the ideas flying. 🚀Huge thanks to the authors—and to the Society for the Advancement of Management Studies and John Wiley & Sons Ltd.—for publishing in the FT50 Journal of Management Studies. 🙏 Curious question to taxi into today’s episode: If inclusion lives in the doing, which horizon of intelligible actions will you open at your organization today? 💡❓ Reference Dobusch, L., van Eck, D., Janssens, M. and van den Brink, M.

    Accounting and post-colonial resistance (Duenas 2025) | FT50 AOS

    English Podcast Start at 00:00:00 Bengali Podcast Start at 00:19:15 Hindi Podcast Start at 00:47:24 Welcome to Revise and Resubmit 🎙️✨ Today we crack open a powerhouse from a prestigious FT50 journal—Accounting, Organizations and Society—published online on 24 June 2025 by Elsevier: “Accounting and post-colonial resistance: Affective ambivalence in the international development assemblage” by Nelson Duenas. 🌍📚 Some sentences are quick. They spark. Others unspool—slow, layered, careful—like field notes written after a long day in a Southern NGO’s office, where spreadsheets hum and histories echo. Here, resistance doesn’t shout; it shivers. It leans in, then leans away. It’s attraction and repulsion, tethered together. 💥🧲 In this episode, we step into that “third space” where Homi Bhabha’s postcolonial theory meets managerial discourse. Hybridity. Ambivalence. Feeling as method. Accounting becomes a double-edged tool—discipline and doorway, control and possibility. The NGO navigates donor demands with a pulse of affects—sometimes yielding, sometimes bending, always moving. Not a barricade. A braid. Not a line. A loop. 🧵🌀 We’ll ask: When accounting mediates colonial legacies, how do emotions make policy? How does a budget become both a boundary and a bridge? And what happens when resistance is not a moment, but a motion—an ongoing flux that shifts relationships and quietly redistributes power? 🔍🧭 If this kind of rigorous, field-sharp scholarship excites you, hit follow on Spotify for Revise and Resubmit, and subscribe to our YouTube companion, Weekend Researcher. We’re also on Amazon Prime and Apple Podcast—tap in, rate, and share so these ideas travel. 🚀📈 Deep thanks to Nelson Duenas and to Elsevier for this vital contribution from the esteemed FT50 journal, Accounting, Organizations and Society. 🙏 So tell me: when a ledger speaks in two voices—one of control and one of care—where, exactly, does resistance write its line? ❓ Reference Duenas, N.

    Incentive alignment in ecosystems (Chatain & Plaksenkova, 2025) | FT50 SMJ

    English Podcast Start at 00:00:00 Bengali Podcast Start at 00:18:54 Hindi Podcast Start at 00:44:38 Welcome to Revise and Resubmit 🎙️ Where ideas sharpen. Where evidence sings. Where strategy meets the street. 🚦 Today, we’re unpacking a fresh gem 📘 “Incentive alignment in ecosystems: The role of complementarity types and multi‐sided bargaining” by Olivier Chatain and Elena Plaksenkova, published online on 15 September 2025 in the prestigious Strategic Management Journal—an FT50 journal—published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd. 🏛️✨ Ecosystems rise when incentives align. They stall when they don’t. Simple. Then complex. In this study, multi-sided bargaining bends alignment in surprising ways, and the type of complementarity makes all the difference. 🔗 Multiplicative complementarities? Alignment is typically weak. Additive? Different story, different stakes. Weakest-link? It can snap tight—or snap apart—depending on who’s lagging. 🧩And those starting functionality levels? They matter more than you think. A nudge here. A gap there. Value at risk—or value unlocked. 🚀 If you’re a manager, architect, or ecosystem strategist, this is a diagnostic kit: what to look for, where alignment hides, and how much value might be slipping through the cracks. 🧠📈 Before we dive in, tap follow and subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify 🔔, and hit up our YouTube home, Weekend Researcher ▶️. We’re also available on Amazon Prime and Apple Podcast. And say hi in the chat 💬—tell us where you’re listening from! Now, here’s the spark: as complementarity types and bargaining collide, what hidden levers decide whether partners pull together—or pull apart—and how would your ecosystem look if you mapped those levers today? 🤔 Big thanks to Olivier Chatain, Elena Plaksenkova, and John Wiley & Sons Ltd. for this outstanding contribution.

    Creating a breakthrough invention (Roy et al. 2025) | FT50 RP

    English Podcast Start at 00:00:00 Bengali Podcast Start at 00:14:42 Hindi Podcast Start at 00:32:47 Welcome to "Revise and Resubmit" 🎙️✨ Let’s light the engines, clear the tower, and climb into a story of how big ideas actually get built. 🚀 Today’s spotlight is on a gem from the prestigious FT50-listed journal Research Policy: "Creating a breakthrough invention: NASA’s internal knowledge generation for the Space Shuttle" by Raja Roy, Curba Morris Lampert, Francisco Polidoro Jr., and Minyoung Kim. Published online on 11 September 2025 and scheduled for Volume 54, Issue 10 (December 2025) by Elsevier, this paper doesn’t just tell history—it teaches a method. 🛰️ Here’s the beat. NASA didn’t march straight to a miracle. They moved. They paused. They returned. That’s oscillation: reach the aspiration level for one performance attribute, step away, circle back with sharper eyes. Then they stacked. Brick by brick. Iteration by iteration. That’s accumulation: satisfy a few attributes now, add more in the next design, and the next, until the whole craft hums at the aspiration level. One rhythm. Then another rhythm. Together, a score. 🎼 What emerges is a dynamic, non-random search—a satisficing solution forged at the intersection of oscillation and accumulation. It’s disciplined curiosity. It’s method made music. It’s how a reusable spacecraft was not only imagined, but engineered. 🧠🔧 Before we dive, tap that follow.

    Spouse Gets Angry, Company Suffers (Yao et al 2025) | FT50 JBR

    English Podcast Start at 00:00:00 Bengali Podcast Start at 00:17:54 Hindi Podcast Start at 00:38:49 🎙️ Welcome to Revise and Resubmit! 🎙️ Today, we’re diving into a paper with a title that’s impossible to ignore — “Spouse Gets Angry, Company Suffers: The Impact of Spousal Anger Expression on Employee Unethical Pro-Family Behavior.” 🥵💼❤️ Written by Zhu Yao, Na Fu, Yurong Liu, Chenqian Xu & Chao Zhang and published in the prestigious Journal of Business Ethics 🏛️ — yes, one of the coveted FT50 journals — this study takes us into a fascinating intersection where family life collides with workplace ethics. Here’s the big idea: when your spouse gets angry about family-related issues, it doesn’t just stay at home. 🏠💥 It can push employees to bend the rules at work to help the family — something researchers call Unethical Pro-Family Behavior (UPFB). And it doesn’t stop there. Using Emotions as Social Information (EASI) theory, the authors show that this chain reaction happens through two powerful pathways:💔 Guilt for family — the emotional “I need to make this right” response.🧠 Family identification — the cognitive “I’m doing this for us” thought process. The team tested this through an experiment AND a multi-wave, multi-source field study 📊📑 — and the results? Both guilt and identification play a role, but only family identification gets stronger when family motivation is high. So next time your spouse is upset, could that anger ripple all the way to your workplace ethics? 🤔 🙏 A huge thanks to Zhu Yao, Na Fu, Yurong Liu, Chenqian Xu & Chao Zhang and to Springer Nature for publishing such thought-provoking work in a top-tier journal. 📢 Don’t forget to subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify, and check out our Weekend Researcher channel on YouTube.

    Mathematical Models of Meaning (Kockelman 2025) - Weekend Book Review

    English Podcast starts at 00:00:00 Bengali Podcast Starts at 00:19:56 Hindi Podcast Starts at 00:40:23 Welcome to Revise and Resubmit, and welcome to our Weekend Book Review 🎙️📚 Hey everyone, I’m so glad you’re here. Today I’m cracking open Mathematical Models of Meaning: A Dynamic Systems Approach to Possible World Semiotics by Paul Kockelman, published by MIT Press on 19 August 2025. 🔬🧠 This book asks the questions that keep me up at night: What is meaning? How do information, value, and purpose braid together when agents make choices in real time, grow over developmental time, and evolve across phylogenetic time? I love that. Short. Sharp. Then bigger. Then wide as the sky. 🌌 Kockelman builds a bridge where others build borders. He blends Bayesian inference with statistical mechanics and evolutionary game theory, then walks us across to the semiotics of Peirce, where signs meet objects, interpretants spark, and consequents ripple into action. ♟️🌀 He puts possible worlds and social relations at center stage, turning abstract equations into living drama, where distributed agents learn, coordinate, compete, and sometimes invent codes that feel like language growing roots in the soil of interaction. 🌱🤝 What I admire most is how the math never forgets the life inside it. Predator and prey teach strategy. Reinforcement learning becomes a biography of attention. Meta-semiotic processes let agents revise their own models, folding knowledge back onto itself like origami thought. And those equations? They are not just numbers. They are choices rehearsed, futures weighed, worlds compared. 🎲🔭 And the guide through all of this is Paul Kockelman, anthropologist at Yale, whose books range from The Art of Interpretation in the Age of Computation to The Anthropology of Intensity to Last Words: Large Language Models and the AI Apocalypse. He writes like a theorist who has lived with code-switchers, coders, and codes themselves. He listens to systems the way fieldworkers listen to stories. Then he rewrites the map. 🧭✨ So here’s my promise for this episode: I’ll keep the rhythm lively and the details grounded. Short lines for spark. Longer lines for texture and depth. We’ll wander possible worlds, but we’ll come back carrying tools you can use. Because meaning is not just what a sentence says. It is what an agent can do next. 🚀 🙏 Thank you, Paul Kockelman, and thank you, MIT Press.🎧 If you enjoy this, subscribe on Spotify and on our YouTube channel Weekend Researcher. We’re also available on Amazon Prime Music and Apple Podcast.🤩 Now tell me, when an agent updates its model of the world, is it discovering meaning or inventing it? Reference Kockelman, P. (2025).

    English Podcast Start at 00:00:00 Bengali Podcast Start at 00:22:16 Hindi Podcast Start at 00:51:43 Welcome to Revise and Resubmit — weekend classics! 🎙️✨Today we crack open “Prospect Theory: An Analysis of Decision under Risk” by Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky, published March 1979 in Econometrica — a prestigious journal on the FT50 list — by The Econometric Society. 📚🏛️ Some sentences are long, unspooling like a lottery wheel 🎡; some are short. Flip. 🎯We follow choices where certainty seduces and probability whispers.We watch the certainty effect turn sure gains into caution and sure losses into daring. ⚖️We see the isolation effect snip away shared parts of a decision, then—surprise—preferences flip when the frame flips. 🔁Value is felt as gains and losses from a reference point, not as final wealth. 📈➡️📉Losses shout louder than gains. 🗣️Probabilities bend into decision weights: low odds loom large (hello gambling and insurance), while medium odds shrink in the mind. 🎲🧠 This is a weekend classic because it changed how we explain risk, not with tidy axioms, but with human hands on the scale.
