Mapping the impact of COVID-19 crisis on the progress of sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)a focus on global environment and energy efficiencies
The novel coronavirus disease has spread uncontrollably all over the world within a short span of time and has affected the development of the world in many ways. All the nations have directed their technical, financial, and political resources towards controlling the COVID-19 pandemic across the world. It is predicted that the impact of this crisis will remain for longer period of time, affecting the livelihood of people and all those activities that were contributing to the development of the nations across the globe. In fact, the most promising and significant seventeen Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that were adopted in the year 2015 by the United Nations (UN) Member States addressing various global issues, now seem difficult to be achieved by 2030 due to coronavirus pandemic. However, even though the COVID-19 pandemic might have turmoil effect on the existing growth of the world, still few positive developments may be observed in the long run due to this pandemic. Therefore, this study focuses on identifying and quantifying the impact of COVID-19 pandemic in achieving the UN SDGs. This study brings out both negative as well as positive influences of the pandemic on the environment and energy related SDGs. The study uses Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to calculate the weights of the identified positive and negative influences for each environment and energy related goals. Further, 4–1 ratings are used to identify the severity of the influences on the SDGs. Finally, a score is calculated using weights and ratings that indicates the overall impact of the pandemic on environment and energy related SDGs. The result obtained in the study shows that the pandemic offers an opportunity to develop action plans that can build more environmentally sustainable future.
The paper aims to: a) estimate the research efficiency scores of Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) in India, b) compare efficiencies in research and teaching according to characteristics like ownership, specialization of courses, and age, and c) estimate the group efficiencies of HEIs categorized according to their characteristics. We estimate efficiency scores using Data Envelopment Analysis and, for the first time, find out the Meta-technology ratio for each group to identify the group which represents the operations and processes of the entire higher education. Research efficiencies are higher than teaching efficiencies. In terms of research efficiency, old HEIs perform better than young HEIs, Public HEIs perform better than Private HEIs, and HEIs specializing in Non-professional courses perform better than HEIs specializing in Professional courses. The teaching-learning and research processes followed by public HEIs are closer to those followed by the entire higher education system. The association between teaching and research is low.

Artificial
intelligence and people management: A critical assessment through the ethical lens
leaders to tread with caution. In this paper, we argue that as the foremost worker advocates in the firm, HR managers must be ethically sensitive and accountable. They have responsibility to carefully monitor AI programs to ensure that these systems do what they are purported to do and protect the dignity of the worker through transparency regarding the data being collected and privacy regarding its usage. Lastly, the HR manager must closely monitor the fairness and equity impacts of AI such that its use is procedurally and distributivity just.

How Smart are Cities without Adequate Finances? A Comparative Analysis in South Asia
This book compares urban finances in cities located in two different South Asian countries and assesses their fiscal health. It uses simulation to estimate the required augmentation in financial resources by the urban local bodies (ULBs) to reach a level of city development that is significantly better compared to existing levels. The book provides a systematic analysis of the fiscal health of two city corporations in Bangladesh, viz. Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) and Dhaka South City Corporation (DSCC); and one city corporation in the Indian state of West Bengal viz. Kolkata Municipal Corporation (KMC).

Network centrality and negative ties in feminine and masculine occupations
Negative ties and gender (as a contextual variable) have remained under-studied in the social networks research in management. Drawing on occupational gender-typing theory, the paper hypothesizes that the relationship between in-degree centrality of employees in a positive ties-based network and their tendency to cite their colleagues in negative ties differs in a feminine and a masculine occupation. Using network data from two organizations in India, the paper shows that in a feminine occupation (nursing), the higher the indegree centrality of the employees in a positive ties -based network, the less likely are they to cite negative ties whereas, in a masculine occupation (mining), the higher the indegree centrality of the employees in a positive ties-based network, more likely are they to cite negative ties. We make a theoretical contribution by extending the occupational gender-typing theory in social networks research by theorizing and examining the distinctive effects of the context – feminine and masculine occupations – on networks and work relations. We also discuss the managerial implications of the study.

Integrating
social enterprise and social marketing with shadow framework: A case for peacebuilding
The purpose of this paper is to argue for an integrative model of social enterprises (SE) and social marketing (SM) to usher in desirable change, instead of the currently adopted either/or approach. We offer the shadow framework to integrate these two paradigms in the context of peace-building organizations.

Innovative pedagogy: When STEM meets story telling
In a novel course taught by Professor Paromita Goswami and Anirban Ghosh, undergraduate students work with research papers published by STEM faculty. We teach them essential story-telling techniques using advertisements, terribly tiny tales and like, and help students convert papers authored by STEM faculty to media posts targeted at a non-science audience.
