Entrepreneurship in the Natural Food and Beauty Categories Before 2000: Global Visions and Local Expressions
Entrepreneurship in the Natural Food and Beauty Categories before 2000: Global Visions and Local Expressions Geoffrey Jones Working Paper 13-024 August 28, 2012 Copyright © 2012 by Geoffrey Jones Working papers are in draft form.

Copies of working papers are available from the author. Entrepreneurship in the Natural Food and Beauty Categories before 2000: Global Visions and Local Expressions Geoffrey Jones Harvard Business School August 2012 Abstract This working paper examines the creation of the global natural food and beauty categories before 2000. This is shown to have been a lengthy process of new category creation involving the exercise of entrepreneurial imagination. Pioneering entrepreneurs faced little consumer demand for natural products, and little consumer knowledge of what they entailed. The creation of new categories involved three overlapping waves of entrepreneurship. The first involved making the ideological case for natural products. This often entailed investment in education and publishing activities. Second, entrepreneurs engaged in the creation of industry associations which could advocate, as well as give the nascent industry credibility and create standards. Finally, entrepreneurs established retail stores, supply and distribution networks, and created brands. Entrepreneurial cognition and motivation frequently lay in individual, and very local, experiences, but many of the key pioneers were also highly globalized in their world views, with strong perception of how small, local efforts related to much bigger and global pictures. A significant sub-set of the influential historical figures were articulate in expressing strong religious convictions. -
Modernism and Fascism in Norway by Dean N. Krouk A
Catastrophes of Redemption: Modernism and Fascism in Norway By Dean N. Krouk A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Scandinavian in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Mark Sandberg, Chair Professor Linda Rugg Professor Karin Sanders Professor Dorothy Hale Spring 2011 Abstract Catastrophes of Redemption: Modernism and Fascism in Norway by Dean N. Krouk Doctor of Philosophy in Scandinavian University of California, Berkeley Professor Mark Sandberg, Chair This study examines selections from the work of three modernist writers who also supported Norwegian fascism and the Nazi occupation of Norway: Knut Hamsun (1859- 1952), winner of the 1920 Nobel Prize; Rolf Jacobsen (1907-1994), Norway’s major modernist poet; and Åsmund Sveen (1910-1963), a fascinating but forgotten expressionist figure. In literary studies, the connection between fascism and modernism is often associated with writers such as Ezra Pound or Filippo Marinetti. I look to a new national context and some less familiar figures to think through this international issue. Employing critical models from both literary and historical scholarship in modernist and fascist studies, I examine the unique and troubling intersection of aesthetics and politics presented by each figure. After establishing a conceptual framework in the first chapter, “Unsettling Modernity,” I devote a separate chapter to each author. Analyzing both literary publications and lesser-known documents, I describe how Hamsun’s early modernist fiction carnivalizes literary realism and bourgeois liberalism; how Sveen’s mystical and queer erotic vitalism overlapped with aspects of fascist discourse; and how Jacobsen imagined fascism as way to overcome modernity’s culture of nihilism. -

From the Unity of Life to the Coequality of the Forms of Consciousness
József Pál From the Unity of Life to the Coequality of the Forms of Consciousness. Worries of Albert Szent-Györgyi in Times of War Szent-Györgyi studied the internal connections between the different forms of cognition, the secret threads that bind public life, historical knowledge and artistic creations with nature and natural sciences on many occasions. He was surprised to see that his “Master,” Kuno von Klebelsberg found, with great intuition, a rule that applied to Biology and which he, the researcher, found only as a result of one and a half decades of research.1 Later, after the pre- sumable end of the age considered as the “Revolt of the Masses” (fascism), he saw a new, historical opportunity only for the human mind and soul that draws from three sources. Ethics, science and arts (literature), he said, were the forms and areas of the search for truth. All three teach us that we should seek the truth, and not try to justify our truth, that all three are commu- nications of divine wisdom.2 In relation to university education, he greatly regretted the phenomenon of the presence of a spiritual proletariat: students are designated to one area only (homo unius libri) although they should leave the university with the love of culture and the completion of comprehensive education. The classical majors of arts and humanities should not be sharply divided from natural sciences and vice versa; this would become destructive to both, moreover, would ruin the former one.3 On Scientific Cognition “The only aim of natural sciences is to learn the deepest truths, the deepest wisdom: to experience God.”4Whoever wishes to study the laws of nature, tries to understand the uttermost wisdom, the wisdom of God. -
