As my "about" page tells, I have been teaching at the American University of Sharjah since the fall of 2005. All of my posts are not about the Middle East, however. I write on a variety of other business, strategy, management, and economics-related topics. Those of you familiar with FA Hayek's seminal work, 'The Road to Serfdom', might find interetsing my application of that work to Hurricane Hugo Chavez' "21st Century Socialism."
