Neural Network Nebulae: Black Boxes’ of Technologies and Object-Lessons from the Opacities of Algorithms
The paper deals with the quandary of the neutrality and transparency of technologies. First, I show how this problem is connected with the image of the opening of 'black boxes' that is pivotal to much of science and technology studies. Second, methodological and socio-political dimensions of the 'black box' metaphor are discussed. Third, I analyze three typical solutions to the problem of the neutrality of technologies outside and inside construc…
And then there were none: What a UCU archive tells us about employee relations in marketising universities
Our study engages evidence from a University and College Union branch archive to explore developments in employee relations (ER) that reflect the organisational effects of marketisation of UK universities. The evidence exposes points of strain in ER at a level of professional divide between managers and academics, and helps to understand their roots in the context of universities as organisational hybrids. Our investigation reveals the failure of…
Contextual constraints and the relevance discovery process: Challenges Facing Knowledge Gatekeepers in Emerging Economies
This paper explores conceptually the process of relevance discovery prompted by a major alteration in the institutional settings that has caused a radical change in the existing management knowledge paradigm, as new, mostly “imported”, knowledge replaces the “old” knowledge base. This situation puts significant pressure on a particular group of experts designated in the literature as “knowledge gatekeepers”. Their role is particularly important w…

Russia's struggle with the language of marketing in the communist and post-communist eras
The status and understanding of marketing in the USSR and post-Soviet Russia are tracked over a 40-year period, making extensive use of Russian-language sources. In the late Soviet period marketing is seen as a Western business system that was not applicable to an economy based on extreme centralisation and state-inspired conditions of shortage. With the collapse of communism, marketing is variously seen as still not quite suitable for Russian co…
Institutions, Business and the State in Russia
THIS ARTICLE LOOKS AT LINKS between firms’ behaviour and the institutional set-up in Russia. It seeks to achieve two objectives. The first is to demonstrate that an institutional approach may achieve what the neoclassical approach has largely failed to accomplish, i.e. explain the factors that forced a great number of firms in Russia to delay restructuring and other anticipated responses following privatisation and price liberalisation. The secon…
The State as a Shareholder: Responsibilities and Objectives
THE CREATION OF A PRIVATE SECTOR in the economy has been one of the most conspicuous elements of post-communist reforms in Russia. The most dramatic manifestation of this policy has been the mass privatisation of public property. The government also seeks to encourage new private businesses by setting up a markettype institutional environment. The results are not straightforward. Private capital has achieved some success in such sectors as bankin…
Privatisation, shareholding and the efficiency argument: Russian experience
THIS ARTICLE ADDRESSES A MAJOR AND YET UNDER-RESEARCHED ISSUE of the disciplinary mechanism in corporate systems of transition economies with a particular emphasis on Russia. The importance of this issue follows from the fact that privatisation and hence creation of corporations is the core process in the institutional restructuring in the economies of Central and Eastern Europe and the CIS. The successes of privatisation in terms of the absolute…

To Farm or Not to Farm: Rural Dilemma in Russia and Ukraine
Employing primary data collected in the summer of 1991 in a representative survey of two farming areas in the territory of the republics of Russia and Ukraine, this study addresses the issue of the future involvement of collective and state-farm workers in private farming. Through the use of a LISREL model, it is argued that those who have been involved in small-scale private farming show no interest in expanding their farm operations or in buyin…
