🎙️ Welcome, everyone, to "Revise and Resubmit" — your go-to show for that irresistible mix of bookish curiosity and sharp, no-nonsense conversation. Today’s episode is the "Weekend Book Review," and we’re taking a deep dive into the dazzling, dramatic, and sometimes dangerous story of modern China. Welcome to the party, fellow readers! 🚀

This week, we’ve got a book that's as wide as the Himalayas and as deep as the South China Sea. "Decoding China: Hard Perspectives from India," published just this August by Bloomsbury India, is not your usual weekend read. No, this one’s packed. It roars. It asks big questions, sometimes in short, sharp bursts, sometimes in winding, epic sentences that echo the sweep of history — the kind Gary Provost would craft and smile at. 📚✨

Let’s talk about the editor, Ambassador Ashok Kantha, the steady hand behind this volume. He is a man who has spent nearly four decades in the thick of diplomacy, specializing in Asian affairs, three separate postings in China, and an advanced certificate in Chinese language for good measure. From New Delhi to Hong Kong, from Sri Lanka to the USA, Kantha has been there, has seen it, has shaped the dialogue. Who better to bring together insights from 21 of the sharpest minds — diplomats, military pros, scholars — all with ringside seats to China’s breathtaking rise?

This book? It’s not just about China. It’s about India’s gaze. It’s about power and risk, about ambition and anxiety. It’s a symphony of essays — some short and punchy, some long and tempestuous — that track China’s big picture, global ambitions, domestic puzzles, and military dreams. Each section raises new questions. Each chapter splits open the headlines and lets the stories, and the stakes, tumble out. 🌏🔍

So here’s where you come in. What does it really mean, for India, for the world, when two giants share a border and a destiny — but not always the same dreams? Why does China’s ‘rejuvenation’ keep diplomats, generals, and strategists up at night? And how do you even begin to decode a country that’s both ancient and radically new?

Stick around. We’ll break it down. We’ll ask the questions no one else dares to ask. We’ll thank Ambassador Kantha and the folks at Bloomsbury India for giving us the map. And then — well, the rest is up to you.

Don’t forget to hit that subscribe button on Spotify and our YouTube channel, Weekend Researcher! We’re also spinning on Amazon Prime Music and Apple Podcast. The story is far from over, and you won’t want to miss what’s next.

So here’s the big question: If you had one burning question for China’s leaders or for India’s, what would you want answered first? 🔥🇮🇳🇨🇳

Let’s get curious together — right here, on "Revise and Resubmit."

Welcome to "Revise and Resubmit," the podcast where ideas evolve and stories resound. This is the episode, "Weekend Classics." Today, we gather in the quiet light of reflection to honor a giant of storytelling—Piyush Pandey. 🎙️✨

Pandey was no ordinary man—born in Jaipur, a cricket-loving boy with a mind sharp enough to top his first year at St. Stephen’s College in history. It was his relentless travel on trains across India to play Ranji Trophy cricket that gifted him a panoramic view of life’s many faces. These journeys filled a treasure chest of human stories and emotions, all of which he carried into his work, forever changing advertising in India with warmth, humor, and authentic resonance.

From the unforgettable Fevicol bus that held together more than just wood, to the musical unity of “Mile Sur Mera Tumhara” and the soul-stirring classical homage of “Desh Raag,” Pandey created more than ads—he crafted culture itself. His genius connected millions, transcending products to become part of India’s collective heart. 🧡📺

On October 24, 2025, at precisely 5:50 a.m., he left us—his sister Ila Arun solemnly confirming the moment. Yet, his stories live on—in jingles, in memories, in the pulse of a nation.

Today's journey is inspired by the brilliant memoir "Pandeymonium: Piyush Pandey on Advertising," published by Penguin Books India in 2015, where Pandey himself reveals the philosophy behind his vibrant life and career.

Curious: What is it about the everyday that transforms into something extraordinary in the hands of a storyteller like Pandey? 🤔

Thank you to Piyush Pandey for his enduring gifts.

🎧 Welcome to "Revise and Resubmit"! 🎤

Step into the pages of history and let the story of Bengal sweep you away. Today, we journey to a time when headlines were alive with liberation and identity, where the ink of an ad could unite people across borders. This is no ordinary episode—this is a story composed with rhythm, color, and the restless beat of cultural memory.

In this episode, we’ll unravel the research behind “Bengal and the Bengals: The Bengali Homeland in Advertisements of West Bengal During Bangladesh Liberation War 1971,” authored by Dr. Tiyasha Sengupta and published in the esteemed Journal of Intercultural Studies. Yes, that’s right—a Scopus Q1 journal, a beacon in the world of academic research! 🏆

Published online by Taylor & Francis on October 27, 2025, this study opens a panoramic window to the past, where Bengali-language advertisements celebrated homeland, language, people, and geography, wrapping pain and pride together in every word. Using a multimodal Discourse-Historical Approach, Dr. Sengupta explores how these cultural products built bridges, not walls. What stories do these ads tell? How did a region torn by Partition reclaim solidarity through media?

But here's what will keep you wondering: How does a border printed on a map hold back shared songs, or stop a memory passed from one generation to the next?🗺️📰
Why does the idea of “homeland” pulse so powerfully, especially when the world seems to be busy drawing lines in the sand?

🌟 Special thanks to Dr. Tiyasha Sengupta for this eye-opening work, and hats off to Taylor & Francis for bringing it to the world stage! 🌟

Before you go—hit subscribe on "Revise and Resubmit" on Spotify, and check out "Weekend Researcher" on YouTube! We’re also streaming on Amazon Prime and Apple Podcast—wherever inspiration finds you! 🚀✨

Now, let’s ask: How do you define your homeland? And could a simple advertisement change the way you see a boundary forever?

🎙️ Welcome to Revise and Resubmit! 💡
The podcast where we dive deep into the stories, struggles, and sparks behind the world’s most cutting-edge academic research — one paper at a time.

Today, we’re unravelling a piece that hits like thunder ⚡ — “Mastanocracy: The legitimization of criminal governance and violence in Bangladesh’s garment industry”, by Shoaib Ahmed, Chandana Alawattage, and Kelum Jayasinghe. Published online on October 17, 2025, in the prestigious Human Relations — yes, that’s an FT50 Journal 🏛️ — and brought to you by SAGE Publications. 📚

In this groundbreaking study, the authors escort us into the tangled alleys of Bangladesh’s garment industry — a place where power is stitched with fear, and violence is woven into the fabric of production. They show us how mastans — politically connected enforcers — shape an invisible empire of influence, discipline, and control. The paper doesn’t just ask who holds the power… it asks how that power becomes legitimate, even celebrated, in the name of progress. 🧵🔥

And so, as we revisit this remarkable research, one thought lingers in the air —
✨ When does governance cease to protect, and start to coerce? ✨

A huge thank-you to the brilliant authors, Shoaib Ahmed, Chandana Alawattage, and Kelum Jayasinghe, and to SAGE Publications for making this vital work accessible through such a respected platform. 🙏

🎙️✨ Welcome to “Revise and Resubmit”! This is where academic stories come alive, where the margins of scholarship whisper louder than the headlines, and where every citation hides a spark of rebellion.

📚 Today, we dive into a conceptual battlefield — a story of law without lawmakers, rules rewritten in soft ink, and two mighty boards shaping the pulse of our financial language. The paper — “When Living Laws Collide: FASB/IASB Conceptual Framework Development as a Contested Discursive Space” — is authored by Selina Orthaus-Wahl, Christoph Pelger, and Carsten Erb, and published in the prestigious Accounting, Organizations and Society, an FT50 Journal from Elsevier. 🌟

From the 1970s to the 2010s, they trace a tug-of-war between stewardship and decision usefulness, between tradition and independence. Through 1,300 comment letters — each, a small revolution in tone — standard setters tried to script their own “living law,” only to find that every rule they wrote was already being un-written by the very voices they invited to comment. 🌀

It’s a tale of soft law, hard boundaries, and the quiet war of ideas that defines our accounting civilization. But here’s the real question that echoes beyond the journal page — when standard setters create a law for themselves, do they govern… or do they get governed? 🤔💭

🎧 Thank you to the authors and to Elsevier for this remarkable contribution to our understanding of standard-setting discourse.

🎤 Welcome, listeners, to Revise and Resubmit!
📚 Today’s episode spotlights research at its sharpest edge. We’re stepping right into the FT50 spotlight, where the world’s most prestigious academic journals set the gold standard — and Contemporary Accounting Research stands tall among them.

Our feature?
✨ “On the valuation implications of unbundled disclosure” — written by the brilliant duo Xue Jia and Jeroen Suijs.

Imagine a firm with two secrets: one whispered among insiders, the other hidden from every market eye. Should it reveal both at once? Or stretch the story, letting the market puzzle through clues one at a time? Jia and Suijs take us deep into this dance of information — bundled versus unbundled disclosure — and show us how it remakes the cost of capital, reshaping the very bones of risk and reward.

By modeling the complex ballet between private knowledge and public surprises, their findings spark a revelation: Unbundled disclosure can lower the cost of capital by refining risk allocation and making prices wiser, sooner. But switch the sequence, and the story changes — uncertainty can rise, the crowd left guessing, prices flickering in the dark.

Published online on 8 October 2025 by Wiley Periodicals LLC for the Canadian Academic Accounting Association, this paper proves why FT50 journals are where innovation comes alive.

🌈 Don’t miss a beat — subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify, Amazon Prime, and Apple Podcast! Want more deep dives? Hit up our YouTube channel, Weekend Researcher, for premium content where research meets real curiosity.

📝 Huge gratitude to Xue Jia and Jeroen Suijs — and to Wiley Periodicals LLC — for lighting up today’s discussion.

🤔 But here’s the puzzle for the weekend: If unbundling makes prices more informative, what hidden risks might still sneak through when disclosure comes in pieces?

🎙️ Welcome to Revise and Resubmit!
🌟 It’s our “Weekend Classics” episode — where words don’t just whisper ancient truths, they dance, twirl, and reimagine the limits of storytelling.

Today, we tumble into a dream — half Dublin, half eternity — waking and laughing beside a river that never really ends. Our companion on this winding journey? None other than James Joyce, the Irish maverick who turned sentences into symphonies and everyday chatter into cosmic echo chambers.

📖 Finnegans Wake — first unveiled to the world on May 4, 1939 by Faber and Faber — isn’t just a book. It’s an experiment in human thought, a wild linguistic carnival where time, myth, and memory blur into one. Within its shifting pages, an innkeeper sleeps, the cosmos stirs, and the whole history of mankind snoozes beside the Liffey.

From the mischievous twins Shem and Shaun to the flowing spirit of Anna Livia herself, Joyce crafts a world where every sound means something — and maybe everything. His prose pushes us to lose ourselves, only to emerge awake — changed, if not entirely sure how.

💫 James Joyce, born in Dublin in 1882, lived much of his life in self-exile but never left Ireland behind. With every sentence, he rewrote the rules of modern storytelling — bold, defiant, unapologetically original. From Dubliners to Ulysses, and finally Finnegans Wake, he proved that the novel could be not just read… but heard, felt, and decoded.

✨ So before the next dream begins — smash that subscribe button to stay tuned with Revise and Resubmit on Spotify, Apple Podcast, and Amazon Prime. And if you want to see more deep dives like this, head to our YouTube channel Weekend Researcher — where literature meets late-night curiosity!

📚 Big thanks to the brilliant author at the heart of today’s episode — the inimitable James Joyce — for reshaping how we think, read, and even breathe language.

🤔 But tell me… if words have dreams, what do they wake into?

🎙️ Hey hey! Welcome back to Revise and Resubmit — your cozy corner for curious minds and caffeinated weekend thoughts. 💫 Today’s special episode of Weekend Book Review has me absolutely buzzing 📚 because we’re diving into a world that doesn’t just report stories… it creates them.

Our spotlight this weekend? The Routledge Handbook of Chinese Media (2nd Edition) — published in August 2025 by none other than Routledge. This isn’t just a book; it’s a panoramic lens on how China’s media breathes, beats, and battles across the networks of the twenty-first century. 🌏 From Hong Kong’s street stories to Taiwan’s democratic voices to the digital ripples of TikTok and WeChat, this book connects the dots of power, protest, and pixels.

And let’s talk about the minds behind it — the phenomenal trio Ming-Yeh T. Rawnsley, Yiben Ma, and Gary D. Rawnsley. 🧠 Their collective vision feels like a symphony of perspectives — scholarly yet soulful, analytical yet alive. Reading their work feels like stepping into a control room where every screen flickers with fragments of real, contemporary China.

So grab your notebook, your tea, maybe even your curiosity hat, because by the end of this episode, you might just find yourself rethinking what “media” means in a world where every click shapes a nation’s narrative.

Thank you to the editors and to Routledge for making such a bold and brilliant publication possible! 🌟

Today we step into a world where voices do more than tell stories. They persuade. They brand. They cross borders without passports. Our journey begins with a single sound—China’s podcast diplomacy.

In his paper Sonic Soft Power: China’s Podcast Diplomacy, presented at the 18th All India Conference of China Studies in October 2025, Mayukh Mukhopadhyay takes us behind the microphone. He shows us how, in a media landscape bound by regulation, podcasts become tools of entrepreneurship, storytelling, and soft power.

He lays out how technology, platforms, and culture weave together to create a Chinese podcasting model that is not just about entertainment but about influence. About teaching and selling. About intimacy and control. About telling the world a story—and deciding who gets to listen, and how.

But here is the question that lingers: when a podcast becomes a diplomat, who is really speaking—the storyteller, or the state?

We thank the hosts and moderators of the 18th All India Conference of China Studies, organized by the Institute of Chinese Studies Delhi and IIM Indore.

🎙️✨ Welcome to Revise and Resubmit!
Today, we’re tuning in to a world where science meets screens, and posture becomes persuasion. 🎥💡
From one of the most prestigious FT50 journals — the Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science — comes a study that quite literally changes the way we see selling.

Our spotlight article is titled “Posture as Information: Streamer Postures and the Purchase of Micro and Small Enterprise Resellers in Livestreaming” — authored by Lu Liu, Jiaming Fang, and Zhenyu Ji, and published on October 13, 2025, by Springer Nature. 🌍📘

💫 Picture this: a livestreamer sways forward, gestures wide, leans in closer — and suddenly, sales spike. This isn’t a coincidence; it’s communication in motion. The authors dive deep into over 5 million frames from 423 livestreams, using deep learning and econometric modeling to decode how movement creates meaning.

They reveal something remarkable: it’s not just what a streamer says, but how they move that moves the market. Richer, more dynamic postures translate into higher energy, stronger mental imagery, and ultimately — more buying behavior. 💸🧠✨ And when these movements are synced with descriptive speech, the effect amplifies, shaping not just emotion, but decision.

The implications stretch beyond screens — into every brand interaction, pitch, and performance. Livestreaming, it seems, isn’t just about selling a product; it’s about choreographing trust.

📈 This is why the Journal of the Academy of Marketing Science, part of the elite FT50 list, stands as a beacon of excellence in marketing research — where data meets human nuance and theory comes alive.

Before we wrap up, make sure you subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify, Amazon Prime, and Apple Podcast, and catch us in action on YouTube at Weekend Researcher — the home of insightful, engaging, and downright fascinating research storytelling! 🔥🎧

🙏 Massive thanks to Lu Liu, Jiaming Fang, and Zhenyu Ji, and to Springer Nature, for showing us that even posture — when analyzed deeply — can reveal the future of digital commerce.

🤔 But here’s a question to leave you thinking — if a posture can sell a product, could the next frontier of marketing be… body language decoded by AI? 💭📡

🎙️🔥 Welcome to Revise and Resubmit!
Today, we’re turning the dial to full emotion — the electric heart of entrepreneurial life. ⚡ Startups don’t just grow from ideas or strategy; they grow from feeling. And that’s where today’s spotlight from an FT50 powerhouse journal, the Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, comes in. 🚀

Our featured paper — “Don’t calm down! How affective climate emerges in start-ups” — is a thrilling exploration by Marius Jones, Elisabeth Norman, Therese Egeland, and Vidar Schei, published on October 13, 2025, by John Wiley & Sons Ltd for the Strategic Management Society.

😮 In the world of new ventures, emotions run wild — optimism ignites one day, anxiety shadows the next, and somewhere between those highs and lows... a culture begins to breathe. This study dives deep into that heartbeat, following five early-stage start-ups over twenty-two months to watch how affective climate — the shared emotional atmosphere — takes shape.

The authors reveal that the most creative, high-performing start-ups don’t chase constant positivity or suppress tension. Instead, they cultivate authenticity — a climate where people can show up as they are, neither too calm nor too chaotic. Emotions here aren’t enemies; they’re signals, sparks, and sometimes, solutions. From constructive meta-emotions to interpersonal validation, this research shows that emotional honesty might just be the secret competitive advantage for founders navigating uncertainty.

💡 And that’s why the Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, one of the FT50 elite, stands out — bridging cutting-edge management theory with the raw, real pulse of human behavior in business.

🎧 So before you ride the next emotional curve of your own creative journey, hit subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify, Amazon Prime, and Apple Podcast. And don’t miss our visual takes on the Weekend Researcher YouTube channel — where academic ideas meet entrepreneurial chaos with flair and fun. 🤓🚀

🙏 Huge thanks to Marius Jones, Elisabeth Norman, Therese Egeland, and Vidar Schei, and to John Wiley & Sons Ltd, for giving us a reason to rethink emotion not as noise… but as the rhythm of innovation.

🤔 Here’s our question for you — in a world obsessed with staying calm, could feeling deeply be the real superpower of successful founders? 💭🔥

🌿🎧 Welcome to Revise and Resubmit!
Today’s episode of insight, empathy, and ethics comes straight from one of the world’s most prestigious FT50 journals — the Journal of Business Ethics. 🌍✨

We’re diving into a groundbreaking study that stirs both the mind and the conscience — “Climate Action Through a Feminist Lens: The Role of Gender Inequality Awareness, Nature Empathy, and Climate Change Concern,” authored by Vanessa Apaolaza, Patrick Hartmann, Virginia Rincón, and Mario R. Paredes.

🔥 Published online on October 18, 2025, by Springer Nature, this paper doesn’t just ask why we act on climate change — it asks who we become when we do.

💪 It tells the story of how feminist identity — an identity built on care, collaboration, and equity — shapes the road to environmental action. The authors reveal that people who identify as feminists don’t just see climate change as a planet problem, but as a people problem. Their empathy with nature and awareness of gendered climate impacts transform concern into action — from small sustainable choices to powerful moral commitments.

🪞 Imagine this: every time a feminist sees a flooded village, a burned forest, or a silent river, they don’t just see loss; they see inequality, and that realization turns into responsibility. Through theories of ethics, psychology, and identity, the study shows how who we are can shape what we save.

📚 The authors remind us that true sustainability isn’t technical — it’s ethical, compassionate, inclusive. And that’s exactly what makes the Journal of Business Ethics shine as a pillar among the world’s FT50 journals — rigorous, visionary, and deeply human.

💫 Before we close, don’t forget to subscribe to Revise and Resubmit on Spotify, Amazon Prime, and Apple Podcast, and join us visually on our YouTube channel, Weekend Researcher, where ideas spark, and research finds its voice.

🙏 Heartfelt thanks to Vanessa Apaolaza, Patrick Hartmann, Virginia Rincón, and Mario R. Paredes, and to Springer Nature, for gifting us an inspiring look at the future of ethical climate action.

🌈 But here’s the question to leave your mind wandering — if empathy can move mountains, could equality be the force that finally heals the Earth? 🌍💭

🎙️✨ Welcome, listeners, to “Revise and Resubmit” — and this weekend, we’re diving into another spellbinding episode of “Weekend Classics”!

📚 Today’s feature takes us through light, loss, and the language of survival — a memoir that rewinds time to reveal the woman behind the lens. It’s called “The Photographer at Sixteen: The Death and the Life of a Fighter”, written by the extraordinary poet and translator George Szirtes — published by MacLehose Press back in 2019.

🕰️ It begins with an ending — a mother’s final breath in an ambulance in 1975 — and then, in prose as delicate as a photograph fading in reverse, it travels back through memory, exile, and war. This is not just a book about death. It’s about how life insists on remembering, even when memory hurts.

🎞️ George Szirtes — Hungarian-born, refugee, poet, translator of the 2025 Nobel Laureate László Krasznahorkai, and winner of the T.S. Eliot Prize — picks up the fragments of his mother’s life and turns them into a quiet symphony of survival. His words remind us that even silence can have texture, and even tragedy can have tenderness.

So, grab your coffee, pause your weekend scroll, and think with me — when we look at an old photograph, are we seeing memory… or are we seeing ourselves? 🤔📸

💫 Huge thanks to George Szirtes for this hauntingly beautiful work and for teaching us that reversing a story can sometimes bring it closer to the truth.

🎙️ Welcome to "Revise and Resubmit"! It’s the "Weekend Book Review" episode, and today I’m holding a book that pulses with courage, hope, and pure unstoppable energy—"My Beautiful Sisters: A Memoir of Courage, Hope, and the Afghan Women’s Soccer Team." I’m your host, and if you love stories that knock down walls and build bridges, you’re in the right place. ⚡️⚽️

Today we dive headfirst into Khalida Popal’s astonishing journey. Khalida, once the heartthrob captain of Afghanistan’s brave—yes, banned—national women’s soccer team, was born into a world where freedom wore running shoes and feminism had to hide in the shadows. From a refugee camp in Pakistan, Khalida found soccer, found sisterhood, and found the guts to challenge the unchallengeable. Her story isn’t just about survival—it’s a rallying cry for every woman who ever dared to dream. 🌍✨

As bombs fell and old terrors returned in Kabul, Khalida didn’t run. She organized. She defended her "beautiful sisters"—teammates, friends, women who risked everything to play the sport they loved. The book is gripping, wrenching, and more than readable; it’s alive with the sound of footfalls, the hush of secrets, and the roar of defiance. Popal, now leading the charge from Denmark, reminds us that courage doesn’t need permission and hope is contagious.

Thank you, Khalida Popal, and thank you Citadel for gifting us this electrifying memoir. 🚀📚

🎙️✨ Welcome to “Revise and Resubmit”! The podcast where research papers don’t just sit on your shelf—they come alive, one theory, one story, one spark of curiosity at a time.

Today, we’re diving into a fascinating tale of legacy and reinvention—“Post-Succession Innovation in Family Businesses: Exploring the Tension Between Incumbent Imprinting and Successor Self-Determination” by Ludovica Del Barone, Maria Carmela Annosi, Evelyn Micelotta, and Filomena Buonocore.

🍽️ Imagine a bustling family bakery in the Netherlands—flour in the air, recipes whispered across generations. The founder imprinted not just tradition but a way of thinking. Then, one day, the successor steps in—full of ambition, ideas, and self-determination. What happens next? Innovation takes shape in four flavors—Inherited, Ancillary, Synergistic, and Detached.

💡 Published in Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice—a prestigious FT50 journal from SAGE Publications, released October 14, 2025—this study unwraps how successors negotiate the invisible tug-of-war between past and possibility.

👩‍🔬 From structural and behavioral imprinting to Self-Determination Theory, this isn’t just business succession—it’s human psychology meeting entrepreneurial renewal.

So here’s the burning question for today 🔥: When you inherit a legacy, are you bound by its blueprint—or free to redraw it entirely? 🤔

🙏 Huge thanks to the authors and SAGE Publications for this thought-provoking work, and to Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice for advancing cutting-edge scholarship in entrepreneurship research.

🎙️ Welcome to “Revise and Resubmit”! 🚀

Where research meets rhythm, and ideas get the mic they deserve. 🎧 Today, we dive into the surge—the real surge—not just of prices, but of questions, ethics, and innovation. ⚡

Picture this: a buzzing city, lights flickering on car roofs, algorithms quietly flexing their invisible muscles. Uber rides rise, prices surge, and behind every digital ping lies a silent equation balancing supply, demand, and human ambition. 🧠💸

Our featured study asks a deceptively simple question: Who Benefits from Surge Pricing? Written by Juan Camilo Castillo and published in Econometrica—yes, that prestigious FT50 journal from the Econometric Society—this 2025 research takes you under the hood of real-time pricing. It fuses data, equilibrium theory, and human behavior into one tight economic symphony. 🎼

But the melody twists: riders win, yet drivers lose. Welfare rises, but fairness flickers. When profit and equity pull in opposite directions, whose algorithm should rule the road? 🚗💥

Big thanks to Juan Camilo Castillo and The Econometric Society for this crucial contribution to academic discourse. 🙏

🎙️ Welcome to “Revise and Resubmit” — the podcast where ideas evolve, research gets a second life, and the world of academia finds its rhythm again! 🌍✨

Today, we’re diving into a story wrapped in silence, ambition, and atomic brilliance — a story that changed the world, one guarded secret at a time.

💥 The paper we’re exploring is titled “Adaptive Secrecy in the Making of the Atomic Bomb: Toward a Process View of Secretive Innovation”, authored by Rohin Borpujari and published in the prestigious Organization Science — yes, you heard it right — an FT50 journal, powered by INFORMS. 🏛️📚

In this thought-provoking study, Borpujari takes us back to the Manhattan Project — a time when scientists, soldiers, and statesmen worked in the shadows, balancing knowledge creation with the peril of exposure. What happens when innovation itself becomes a secret weapon? 🔐

Through the lens of adaptive secrecy, we witness how the boundaries between sharing and concealing knowledge aren’t fixed — they shift like sand dunes under wartime winds. The paper uncovers three types of uncertainty — evaluative, boundary, and performance — and shows how organizations use adaptive disclosures to navigate them: sometimes revealing a little, sometimes hiding even that revelation.

In a world obsessed with transparency, this paper makes us ask: maybe secrecy isn’t the enemy of innovation... maybe it’s the silent architect of it? 🤔

So, as we unpack how secrecy adapts, evolves, and sometimes saves innovation itself, let’s pause and wonder —
💭 What if the world’s greatest discoveries were born not in light... but in the disciplined darkness of secrecy?

🙏 Special thanks to Rohin Borpujari for this remarkable contribution and to INFORMS for publishing it in Organization Science, one of academia’s most respected FT50 journals.

Welcome to 🎙️ Revise and Resubmit — the podcast where big ideas meet bigger questions. Today, we’re stepping into the fascinating crossroads between moral aspirations and the everyday grind, exploring how institutions transform their deepest purposes without losing their soul.

Our spotlight shines on an exceptional 2025 study: "Bridging Moral Aspirations and the Mundane Reality: A Grounded Study of the Process of Radical Purpose Adaptation in a Business School" 🏛️ — penned by Luca Manelli, Carlotta Benedetti, Josip Kotlar, and Federico Frattini. Published in the highly prestigious Journal of Management Studies — part of the FT50 journal list — this research takes us inside a European business school’s bold journey to reimagine its mission for society.

From proactive purpose work 🎯 that sparks new visions — and unexpected tensions — to reactive purpose work 🛠️ that contains and redirects them, this paper offers a rare, longitudinal lens on how repurposing plays out in reality. It’s a living dance between ideals and constraints, between visionary leaps and stabilising steps.

So… 😏 what does it really take for leaders to rewrite an organization’s purpose without watching it unravel in their hands?
