The play opens with reporters waiting on the execution of Earl Williams (Graham H. Lazar ’12), an alleged communist who is convicted for shooting a policeman. The star reporter for The Chicago Enquirer, Hildy Johnson (Ryan P. Halprin ’12), strolls in smugly with the news that he is leaving the crummy newspaper world, getting married, and moving to New York to enter the glamorous advertising industry. Yet just...

...close friends and colleagues in Harvard’s economics department.In the early 1990s, Andrei Shleifer had been the Russian project director for the Harvard Institute for International Development, which received funding from the U.S. State Department’s Agency for International Development to advise the former communist country as it moved toward economic privatization.

The country's growth--and intense competition among manufacturers in industry after industry--has gone far beyond the government's ability to regulate the economy effectively. In an ostensibly communist country, unfettered competition combined with nonexistent or, in many cases, corrupt government oversight has often produced a race to the bottom among businesses.
