Thank you, Jacob. This discussion has sometimes deteriorated into
personal attacks that I find offensive and that do not contribute to a
useful discussion for me. I expect I am opening myself to attack now by
some of those who have engaged in such attacks. It feels more
comfortable to do it openly in this way than to offer my own ideas and
wait for them to be ridiculed. I have appreciated much of the
discussion, however. I will be chairing a symposium at the AOM meetings
this August that is co-sponsored by MED, CMS, and ONE on the topic of
the management professor's role in developing student awareness about
the current state of capitalism, so have found much good material from
this discussion. I hope some of you will be able to attend the session
and we can carry on a spirited discussion face-to-face then.
