Certainty addiction

From Zero-COVID policy to no COVID policy - can North Korea follow China´s lead?
One of the most stunning reversals of health policy anywhere in the world happened in early December, when the three-year-old Chinese strict zero-COVID policy was effectively abandoned, to such an extent that the Chinese Center for Disease Control had to admit, after less than a week, that they had no more clue where and how frequent the COVID virus was infecting citizens.

On patriotism, nationalism and other -isms, or, let's not burn the house down
What motivation drives a decision maker's choices in his policies?

Universities need to design liquid syllabuses
A traditional syllabus serves as a learner's guide to a course and outlines the expectations for each participant. Typically, it comprises topics covered, a schedule for submitting assignments, a list of the required textbooks and other instructional materials, course policies, rules, and regulations.

Whirlwind month for World Cup
Many governments still perceive that hosting major sporting contests command significant prestige. Yet that has been tested in recent weeks with the challenges facing the soccer World Cup whose much anticipated France-Argentina final ended on Sunday.

Making a big deal is unrealistic to denuclearize North Korea
North Korea used to pursue a big deal with the United States by utilizing its nuclear arsenal in exchange for lifting all economic sanctions. However, this strategy seems to have adjusted in the Kim Jong-un era.
