- Jim Hoesterey from the Center for Southeast Asian Studies at the University of Michigan delivers a talk titled, Building the Islamic work ethic?: tailoring global capitalism for the Indonesian workplace. Hoesterey suggests that Indonesia has successfully blended Islam with free market capitalism. Hoesterey uses a variety of examples to show how Western style capitalism and entrepreneurship are being reinterpreted and integrated into marketing and business strategies in a Muslim friendly manner. He draws parallels between what is happening in Indonesian culture with what has been common for many decades in the U.S. with business and self-help gurus like Stephen Covey and Tony Robbins. Hoesterey is introduced by Professor John P. Beck, Associate Director, Michigan State University School of Human Resources and Labor Relations. Part of the "Our Daily Work/Our Daily Lives" Brown Bag series sponsored by the MSU School of Human Resources and Labor Relations, the MSU Museum, The Journal for the Study of Radicalism and the MSU Asian Studies Center.
