Nicholas Taleb sales. Out of a million submitted manuscripts, a handful account for the bulk of book sales. One percent of the U.S. population earns close to 90 times what the bottom 20% does, and half the capitalization of the stock market (close to 10,000 companies) is in fewer than 100 corporations.

Similarly, a very small number of days accounts for the bulk of stock market movements: Just ten trading days can represent half

of planned legislation to increase maritime safety arising from the accident of the tanker Erika in 1999. OCIMF’s lobbying targeted two proposals: the fast phasing-out of single hull tankers, which would have led to a potential shortage of ships for hire, and the planned establishment of a European compensation fund complementary to an already existing American one – which would have caused additional costs to the oil industry.

contingent factors exist that strategy must be highly situational (Hatten, Schendel, & Cooper, 1978). In the latter vein, Hofer (1975) set forth what he considered to be a manageable list of 20 contingent factors (narrowed down from 54) that affect strategy for The authors gratefully acknowledge sponsorship by the Strategy Research Center, Columbia University Graduate School of Business, and generous support from the Strategic Planning Institute, Cambridge, Mass.

(contrary to around 85% in France), but a quarter out of the 647 000 students who applied for university were not accepted. This observation is a proof of a British educational system in crisis. Nevertheless, for years, different measures have been implemented in order to improve the situation. But the system still encounters many difficulties. To what extent can we describe the British educational system for being unfair and elitist? First of all, the main problem of British society is that it
