  • The Koch Network and Republican Party Extremism Theda Skocpol and Alexander Hertel-Fernandez
    Articles The Koch Network and Republican Party Extremism Theda Skocpol and Alexander Hertel-Fernandez Presidential election years attract attention to the rhetoric, personalities, and agendas of contending White House aspirants, but these headlines do not reflect the ongoing political shifts that will confront whoever moves into the White House in 2017. Earthquakes and erosions have remade the U.S. political terrain, reconfiguring the ground on which politicians and social groups must maneuver, and it is important to make sure that narrow and short-term analyses do not blind us to this shifting terrain. We draw from research on changes since 2000 in the organizational universes surrounding the Republican and Democratic parties to highlight a major emergent force in U.S. politics: the recently expanded “Koch network” that coordinates big money funders, idea producers, issue advocates, and innovative constituency-building efforts in an ongoing effort to pull the Republican Party and agendas of U.S. politics sharply to the right. We review the major components and evolution of the Koch network and explore how it has reshaped American politics and policy agendas, focusing especially on implications for right-tilted partisan polarization and rising economic inequality. he Republican Party has become ... ideologi- legitimacy of its political opposition.”1 This startling “T cally extreme; contemptuous of the inherited description appeared not in a broadside issued by the social and economic policy regime; scornful of Democratic National Committee but in a wonkish 2012 compromise; unpersuaded by conventional understanding book, It’s Even Worse Than It Looks: How the American of facts, evidence, and science; and dismissive of the Constitutional System Collided with the New Politics of Extremism, co-authored by two sober-minded analysts of different personal political persuasions, Thomas Mann A list of supplementary materials provided by the authors and Norman Ornstein.

  • The State of the ERP 2Nd Edition | September 2020 | Trenegy Incorporated the Modern ERP
    The State of the ERP 2nd Edition | September 2020 | Trenegy Incorporated The Modern ERP Widespread use and development of the ERP as we know it today—a multi-functional, integrated, company-wide system of record—boomed in the 1990s. Since then, many companies have kept those same base systems, simply upgrading, patching, and bolting on more capabilities. Today, nearly 25 years later, organizations are finding ERPs have advanced to such a degree that patches and bolt-ons may no longer be enough. After all this time, their systems have been so customized they can no longer be supported or upgraded to house modern tools. ERP systems have evolved, and the industry is nearing maturity. 2020 will see the full development of once cutting-edge technologies, increased demand for integrated, real-time data transmission, and automated compliance capabilities. Technology Jargon Technology is rapidly advancing and changing how businesses operate. Incorporating advanced technology within an ERP is a trend for many ERP providers. Below are explanations of the jargon ERP vendors use along with 2019 trends. Artificial Intelligence (AI) AI was, at one time, arguably the most disruptive concept on the planet. Today, it is accepted and working its way into the ERP space. Whether companies are using it to identify unique customer characteristics, simplify system functionality, or improve production utilization, AI in ERP has potential. Larger companies like SAP, Oracle, and Microsoft are exploring this space, but revolutionary AI breakthroughs for the ERP are likely several years away. Business Intelligence (BI) BI is where the most applicable, current use of AI capabilities is seen in ERPs.
