Mindset Theory and Impostor Phenomenon: A Typology and Implications for Organizations
Impostor phenomenon (IP) exerts considerable economic and psychological costs on individuals and organizations, justifying the need for a deeper understanding of its antecedents. Extant literature largely overlooks the role of contextual factors in influencing the manifestation and/or intensity of IP. In this paper, we draw upon mindset and self‐discrepancy theories to explain how individual and organizational mindsets interact to affect the indi…
Governance by Perpetual Conflict: How Early Colonial Political Practices Undermine Democracy in Post-Civil War Sri Lanka
The 1978 Constitution of Sri Lanka established a semi-presidential system within the country with constitutional provisions for a powerful executive presidency. Three decades later, practices of the presidents in the post-war period show commonalities with the Sinhala monarchy that prevailed in early colonial Sri Lanka. To substantiate this argument, this paper focuses on four kings from the Sithavaka and Kandyan kingdoms who reigned in Sri Lanka…
The School Strike for Climate as people’s engagement in the transnational legal process and global constitutionalism
What is the significance of the School Strike for Climate from an international constitutional perspective? In this article, I compare the School Strike for Climate with the Hong Kong protests of 2019–20. Both these movements became necessary because of gaps in their countries’ respective domestic and international legal frameworks – what I term constitutionalism gaps. The immediate cause of each protest was how state and non-state actors exploit…
The unresolved constitutional dilemma: Persisting Imbalance of power exposed by the Constitutional Coup 2018
On 26th October 2018, Sri Lankan President surprised the nation with his abrupt removal of the Prime Minister in office and the appointment of another Prime Minister on ambivalent constitutional grounds. Through his actions, President Sirisena was attempting to bring to the power the former strongman Rajapaksa from his own party to entrench himself as well as their party, while undercutting Wickremasinghe and his party. Constitutional Coup 2018 w…
Pursuing fitness: How Dialectic Goal Striving and Intersubjectivity Influence Consumer Outcomes
Consumers increasingly engage expert service providers in their goal pursuits. While the literature focuses primarily on goal attainment, this presents just one stage of extended goal striving. Using Bagozzi and Dholakia’s [(1999). “Goal Setting and Goal Striving in Consumer Behavior.” Journal of Marketing 63 (Special Issue): 19–32] goal-striving framework as the foundation, this qualitative research examines the client–trainer interactions in th…
Alternative marketplaces in the 21st century: Building community through sharing events
We examine alternative consumption including collaborative consumption, sharing, and unconsumption (i.e., postconsumption activities such as upcycling, reuse, recycling, etc.) at non‐monetary‐based private and public sharing events including Really Really Free Markets (RRFMs). These alternative marketplaces (RRFMs) were initially organized by the Anarchist Movement as a form of resistance to the capitalist economic model. However, many consumer g…
