Man hat mich und meinen Kollegen Mariano Riestra gebeten, über Wirtschaft und Kultur zu spre­ chen, insbesondere über die Unternehmenskultur in Deutschland und Spanien, wie auch über die Beziehungen zwischen Unternehmen und Kultur. Meine erste Reaktion war: „Welch leichte Aufgabe!“. Die zweite war die Erkenntnis, dass diese Themen genug Stoff bieten, um an der Fakultät unseres Moderators der heutigen Gesprächsrunde, Professor Santiago García Echevarría, mehrere Doktorarbeiten zu verfassen. Und die dritte Reaktion war die Einsicht, dass grundlegende Gedanken, sub­ jektive Eindrücke und persönliche Erlebnisse das Einzige sind, was ich zu diesem Thema beitragen kann. 1. Unternehmenskultur in Deutschland und Spanien Beginnen wir also mit dem Thema „Unternehmenskultur in Deutsch­ land und Spanien“.

Alternative organizing is one response to the critique of capitalism. As an embodied and constructive form of critique it takes place in prefigurative organizations and communities on the ground that experiment with alter- native forms of organizing economic exchanges and lives.

  • The Impact of Computerized Agents on Immediate Emotions, Overall Arousal and Bidding Behavior in Electronic Auctions
    To appear in Journal of the Association for Information Systems (JAIS) 1 Institute of Information Systems and Marketing (IISM) The Impact of Computerized Agents on Immediate Emotions, Overall Arousal and Bidding Behavior in Electronic Auctions Timm Teubnera,* , Marc T. P.Adamb, Ryan Rioardanc a Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT), Germany b University of Newcastle, Australia c Queen’s University, Ontario, Canada ABSTRACT The presence of computerized agents has become pervasive in everyday live. In this paper, we examine the impact of agency on human bidders’ affective processes and bidding behavior in an electronic auction environment. In particular, we use skin conductance response and heart rate measurements as proxies for the immediate emotions and overall arousal of human bidders in a lab experiment with human and computerized counterparts. Our results show that computerized agents mitigate the intensity of bidders’ immediate emotions in response to discrete auction events, such as submitting a bid and winning or losing an auction, as well as the bidders’ overall arousal levels during the auction. Moreover, bidding behavior and its relation to overall arousal are affected by agency: whereas overall arousal and bids are negatively correlated when competing against human bidders, this relationship is not observable for computerized agents. In other words, lower levels of agency yield less emotional behavior. The results of our study have implications for the design of electronic auction platforms and markets that include both human and computerized actors. Keywords: agency; auctions; e-commerce; NeuroIS; emotions; arousal; human-computer interaction 1 Introduction ing many of these tasks. As markets have automated and j increased their operating speeds, so have the participants in Information technology has revolutionized markets.
