CAPITALIST SCHOOLS
If education is any predictor of the future, fans of global
capitalism may still have their day. This past summer, as world

hundred thousand students are just starting their M.B.A. classes.
And many of them came from outside of America, ___( II )___
free markets and large bonus checks are, apparently, still
something to strive for .
This year, as many as 30 percent to 40 percent of the
students in Americas top M.B.A. programs will be from outside
the United States, up from the teens and twenties 10 years ago.
Many more of them would like to attend but get turned down;

half a million since 1994. What ___( IV )___ is their preferred

having earned it, most students eventually head back home.

promising young managers. Twenty-nine-year-old Brazilian
student Rodrigo Abreu is attending the Stanford School of
Business courtesy of his employer, Promon, a Brazilian telecomsystems integrator. With the rapid deregulation of that countrys
communications industry, Promon must do battle with the likes
of Lucent and NEC. The financial and organizational skills that
Abreu brings home from Stanford will help. We were always a
company run by engineers, says Abreu, ___( VI )___ has an
engineering degree himself. Now we are starting to get more
