...Harvard does not exactly enjoy the reputation of a warm, sympathetic employer. Many University workers resent the attitude of the administrators toward negotiations, as embodied by Edward W. Powers, associate general counsel for employee relations and the University's principal negotiator: "Harvard is primarily an educational institution, and it's a shame to drain off financial resources unnecessarily to support services...
...province, of which Kwangju (pop. 800,000) is the capital. Cholla is the poorest region of the country, and was consistently neglected by President Park during his 18 years in power. The people of Cholla have long complained of unfair treatment by the central government. Most of all, they resent the fact that their area has been deprived of the industrialization that has benefited the rest of the country.

...Neckarvise, the grassy bank of the river. On a Sunday afternoon, no trace remains of last night's cowboys or clowns, only docile families, discreet and not-so-discreet sweethearts, and decrepit ice cream peddlers. The Germans don't play American football or drive Mercedes, and they resent the wealthy foreigners who make no attempt to learn their language. Although the Germans respect American business expertise, they think of Americans as naive, ill-mannered, and offensively chauvinistic. American visitors often bear out the Germans' worst expectations...
