Young Man Buys Newspaper and Grows UpBy pippalouA good story about a wealthy young man who buys a newspaper just to make them stop printing things against his father (who is a quack doctor). The story centers around the struggles and difficult decisions the young man has to make as to whether to keep the paper going or let it die, and central to that is the fact that he eventually has to wake up to the fact that his father really is a quack. Good writing and good plot, although the book itself is a trifle long.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

    BUSENV 1706: Market Manipulations: Crises, Bubbles, Robber Barons, and Corporate Saints University Honors College Course Fall 2015, 3cr., Mon-Wed, 9:30-10:45am, Room B-75 Mervis Hall, CRN 24170 Instructor: Prof. Barry M. Mitnick Office: 261 Mervis Hall Phone: 412 648-1555 Email: [email protected] Secretary: Elizabeth Ann Sismour <[email protected]>, 412 648-1703, 341 Mervis Hall Course Description: We are emerging from one of the most severe economic crises in the nation’s history. In two such crises over a hundred years ago, J.P. Morgan, one of the most reviled and caricatured men of his day, twice rescued the U.S. economy from disaster. How did he do it? Who plays the role of J.P Morgan today? Can we learn anything from the historical parallels? This course examines a range of market manipulations, including speculation events such as bubbles, panics, and manias; scams such as Ponzi schemes; “exploits” that use the rules of the organization for corrupt purposes; cost or risk-shifting; rent-controlling behavior that takes advantage of control over essential resources producing market power; expropriations such as theft and embezzlement; enticement events such as bribery; and normative rents or cover that use trust- producing or promise-keeping processes or institutions to conceal fraud. It also examines some of the social, institutional, and governmental attempts to deal with these manipulations. Thus, what is perhaps unusual in this course is its dual treatment of both the mechanisms by which opportunistic actions are taken in markets, and the attempts to ameliorate impacts that occur as byproducts of such actions.

The Determinants of Progressive Era Reform: The Pure Food and Drugs Act of 1906 Marc T. Law and Gary D. Libecap NBER Working Paper No. 10984 December 2004 JEL No. I1, N4, L5 ABSTRACT We examine three theories of Progressive Era regulation: public interest, industry capture, and information manipulation by the federal bureaucracy and muckraking press. Based on analysis of qualitative legislative histories and econometric evidence, we argue that the adoption of the 1906 Pure Food and Drugs Act was due to all three factors. Select producer groups sought regulation to tilt the competitive playing field to their advantage. Progressive reform interests desired regulation to reduce uncertainty about food and drug quality. Additionally, rent-seeking by the muckraking press and its bureaucratic allies played a key role in the timing of the legislation. We also find that because the interests behind regulation could not shape the enforcing agency or the legal environment in which enforcement took place, these groups did not ultimately benefit from regulation in the ways originally anticipated.

  • A History of the Rochester City Club by BLAKE MCKELVEY
    Edited by DEXTER PERKINS, City Historian and BLAKE MCKELVEY, As&ant City Historian Vol. IX. October, 1947 A History of the Rochester City Club by BLAKE MCKELVEY The City Club’s more significant contributions were written in the minds and hearts of the countless thousands who heard or participated in its forums. No historian can fathom such sources, yet we may learn much from the records kept by conscientious officers and from the press notices preserved in bulging scrapbooks. A voluminous correspond- ence file and the recollections of old and long-faithful members* have helped to recreate the drama hidden behind the formal records, thus giving life to at least some of the more memorable sessions. From, these varied sources emerges the story of a noteworthy venture in adult education, in democratic citizenship-a continuing institution still vibrantly alive in its 39th year. We can of course detect some of the Club’s influence in Rochester’s sturdy tradition of free discussion, in the community’s broad-minded approach to many public questions (particularly those of an international scope), and in the tolerant spirit so characteristic of the relations between many segments of the population. The City Club has not been the only builder of present-day Rochester, nor has its influence been equally significant over the years. There have been shifts in its emphasis, critical periods in its career. A study of the affairs of such a representative institution as the City Club, an appraisal of the issues raised and of the programs developed, will throw much light on the city’s history during the last four decades.

Course Description: After years of recovery, we recently emerged from one of the most severe economic crises in the nation’s history. In two such crises over a hundred years ago, J.P. Morgan, one of the most reviled and caricatured men of his day, twice rescued the U.S. economy from disaster. How did he do it? Who plays the role of J.P Morgan today? Can we learn anything from the historical parallels? One of the most formidable challenges to modern management stems from the need to manage opportunism in market systems and the sometimes devastating effects of market failures. Thus, this course seeks to provide a basic and critical understanding of the range of market manipulations, including speculation events such as bubbles, panics, and manias; scams such as Ponzi schemes; “exploits” that use the rules of the organization for corrupt purposes; cost or risk-shifting; rent- controlling behavior that takes advantage of control over essential resources producing market power; expropriations such as theft and embezzlement; enticement events such as bribery; and normative rents or cover that use trust-producing or promise-keeping processes or institutions to conceal fraud.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact.
