Escalating disputes between Paramount and DuMont concerning breaches of contract , company control , and network competition erupted regularly between 1940 and 1956 , and culminated in the dismantling of the DuMont Network .

query: Wonder Woman has skills in strategy.

pos: Wonder Woman Wonder Woman is a fictional superhero appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics . The character is a founding member of the Justice League , demigoddess , warrior princess , and Ambassador-at-Large of the Amazonian people . In her homeland , she is Princess Diana of Themyscira , and outside of her homeland , she is known by her civilian identity Diana Prince .   Wonder Woman was created by the American psychologist and writer William Moulton Marston , and artist Harry G. Peter . Marston and his wife Elizabeth 's cohabitant , Olive Byrne , is credited as being his inspiration for the character 's appearance . Marston drew a great deal of inspiration from early feminists , and especially from birth control pioneer Margaret Sanger . The character first appeared in All Star Comics # 8 in October 1941 and first cover-dated on Sensation Comics # 1 , January 1942 . The Wonder Woman title has been published by DC Comics almost continuously except for a brief hiatus in 1986 .   Wonder Woman 's origin story relates that she was sculpted from clay by her mother Queen Hippolyta and given life by Aphrodite , along with superhuman powers as gifts by the Greek Gods . However , in recent years artists updated her profile : she has been depicted as the daughter of Zeus , and jointly raised by her mother Hippolyta and her aunts Antiope and Menalippe ; artists George Perez gave her a muscular look and emphasized her Amazonian heritage ; artist Jim Lee redesigned Diana 's costume to include pants ; she inherits Ares 's divine abilities , becoming the personified `` God of War '' ; and writer Greg Rucka clarified her sexual orientation as bisexual , giving her a backstory that includes positive relationships with women .   Her Amazonian training helped to develop a wide range of extraordinary skills in strategy , hunting , and combat . She possesses an arsenal of advanced technology , including the Lasso of Truth , a pair of indestructible bracelets , a tiara which serves as a projectile , and , in older stories , a range of devices based on Amazon technology . Wonder Woman was created during World War II ; the character was initially depicted fighting Axis military forces as well as an assortment of colorful supervillains , although over time her stories came to place greater emphasis on characters , deities , and monsters from Greek mythology . Many stories depicted Wonder Woman rescuing herself from bondage , which defeated the `` damsels in distress '' trope that was common in comics during the 1940s . In the decades since her debut , Wonder Woman has gained a formidable cast of enemies bent on eliminating the Amazon , including classic villains such as Ares , Cheetah , Doctor Poison , Circe , Doctor Psycho , and Giganta , along with more recent adversaries such as Veronica Cale . Wonder Woman has also regularly appeared in comic books featuring the superhero teams Justice Society ( from 1941 ) and Justice League ( from 1960 ) .   Notable depictions of the character in other media include Gloria Steinem placing the character on the cover of Ms. magazine in 1971 ; the 1975 -- 1979 Wonder Woman TV series starring Lynda Carter ; as well as animated series such as the Super Friends and Justice League . Since Carter 's television series , studios struggled to introduce a new live-action Wonder Woman to audiences , although the character continued to feature in a variety of toys and merchandise , as well as animated adaptations of DC properties , including a direct-to-DVD animated feature . Attempts to return Wonder Woman to television have included a television pilot for NBC in 2011 , closely followed by another stalled production for The CW . Gal Gadot portrays Wonder Woman in the DC Extended Universe , starting with the 2016 film Batman v Superman : Dawn of Justice , marking the character 's feature film debut after over 70 years of history . Gadot will also star in the character 's first solo live-action film Wonder Woman , set to be released on June 2 , 2017 .   On October 21 , 2016 , the United Nations sparked controversy by naming Wonder Woman a UN Honorary Ambassador for the Empowerment of Women and Girls in a ceremony attended by Under-Secretary-General for Communications and Public Information Cristina Gallach and by actors Lynda Carter and Gal Gadot . Critics regard the character as not being a worthy role model for women , deeming the scantily clad `` large breasted , white woman of impossible proportions '' as being overtly sexualized and not culturally sensitive . Two months later she was dropped from her role as a UN Ambassador following a petition .

neg: Women's World Chess Championship The Women 's World Chess Championship ( WWCC ) is played to determine the women 's world champion in chess . Like the World Chess Championship , it is administered by FIDE .   Unlike with most sports recognized by the International Olympic Committee , where competition is either `` mixed '' ( containing everyone ) or split into men and women , in chess women are both allowed to compete in the `` open '' division ( including the World Chess Championship ) yet also have a separate Women 's Championship ( only open to females ) . Notably however , the top-rated female player for over 20 years ( with the highest FIDE rating in history of any woman ) , Judit Polgár , has never competed for the women 's title .

neg: Superstate A superstate is defined as `` a large and powerful State formed when several smaller countries unite '' , `` A large and powerful state formed from a federation or union of nations '' .  This is distinct from the concept of superpower , although these are frequently seen together . It is also distinct from the concept of empire , where one nation dominates other nations through military , political , and economic power , although an empire may also be a superstate .   In the early 20th century , `` superstate '' had a similar definition as today 's supranational organisations . In a 1927 article by Edward A. Harriman on the League of Nations , a superstate was defined as merely `` an organisation , of which a state is a member , which is superior to the member themselves '' , in that '' -LSB- a -RSB- complete superstate has legislative , executive and judicial organs to make , to execute and to interpret its laws '' . According to this definition , Harriman saw the League of Nations as a `` rudimentary superstate '' , and the United States as `` an example of a complete and perfect superstate '' .   In World Order of Bahá ` u 'll áh , first published in 1938 , Shoghi Effendi , the Guardian of the Bahá ' í Faith , described the anticipated world government of that religion as the `` world 's future super-state '' with the Bahá ' í Faith as the `` State Religion of an independent and Sovereign Power . ''   In the 1970s , academic literature used the term `` superstate '' to indicate a particularly rich and powerful state , in a similar fashion to the term superpower .   In contemporary political debate , especially the one centred on the European Union , the term `` superstate '' is used to indicate a ( usually deemed unwelcome ) development in which the Union takes over the character of a State ( including the monopoly on violence ) thus abolishing the sovereignty and independence of its member states .  For instance , Glyn Morgan opposes the perspective of a `` European superstate '' to the ones of `` a Europe of nation-states '' and of `` a post-sovereign European polity '' . In her definition , a `` European superstate is nothing more than a sovereign state - a tried and tested type of polity that predominates in the modern world - operating on a European wide scale '' , i.e. , `` a unitary European state ''   The term was famously used by Margaret Thatcher in her 1988 Bruges speech , when she decried the perspective of `` a European super-state exercising a new dominance from Brussels '' , and has since entered the eurosceptic lexicon .  Tony Blair argued in 2000 that he welcomed an EU as a `` superpower , not a superstate ''

neg: In Search of Wonder In Search of Wonder : Essays on Modern Science Fiction is a collection of critical essays by Damon Knight . Most of the material in the original version of the book was originally published between 1952 and 1955 in various science fiction magazines including Infinity Science Fiction , Original SF Stories , and Future SF . The essays were highly influential , and contributed to Knight 's stature as the foremost critic of science fiction of his generation . The book also constitutes an informal record of the `` Boom Years '' of science fiction from 1950-1955 .   In the opening chapter , Knight states his `` credos '' , two of which are :   That science fiction is a field of literature worth taking seriously , and that ordinary critical standards can be meaningfully applied to it : e.g. , originality , sincerity , style , construction , logic , coherence , sanity , garden-variety grammar .   That a bad book hurts science fiction more than ten bad notices .   Perhaps the most famous essay in the book is `` Cosmic Jerrybuilder : A. E. van Vogt '' , a review of the 1945 magazine serialization of A.E. Van Vogt 's The World of Null-A , in which Knight `` exposed the profound irrationality lying at the heart of much traditional science fiction '' .   In 1956 Knight was awarded a Hugo as `` Best Book Reviewer '' based largely on the essays reprinted in this book .

neg: Strategic leadership Strategic Leadership is the ability of influencing others to voluntarily make decisions that enhance the prospects for the organisation 's long-term success while maintaining long-term financial stability.Different leadership approaches impact the vision and direction of growth and the potential success of an organization . To successfully deal with change , all executives need the skills and tools for both strategy formulation and implementation .  Managing change and ambiguity requires strategic leaders who not only provide a sense of direction , but who can also build ownership and alignment within their workgroups to implement change .

neg: Zone of control In board wargames , zones of control ( ZOC ) represent the tiles adjacent to tiles occupied by objects . For example , in hexagonal tiled maps , the six hexagons adjacent to the hexagon occupied by a unit could be considered to be in its `` zone of control . ''   Zones of control commonly are used to represent the portion of the map over which a military ground formation has a direct influence , due to the range of its weapons and the distance its sub-units may deploy from its center of gravity . Game rules often include specific effects associated with a zone of control . Typical effects include one or more of the following :   Destruction of retreating enemy units .  Enemy units must be attacked .  Increased movement cost .  Interdiction of enemy supply lines .  Partly negate enemy zone of control .  Prevent further movement , including voluntary advances or retreats .  Reveal hidden enemy units .   Zones of Control also represent the indirect effect a formation has on the movement rate of an enemy unit in its vicinity . That is , units deep behind friendly lines , and so outside enemy zones of control , may move almost at road speed under many conditions , while once they approach an enemy unit - and so enter its Zone of Control - their movement rate should slow dramatically , perhaps only to yards per hour , which in game terms is indistinguishable from stopping in the presence of the enemy .   Zones of control come in many forms , including fluid ( sometimes called elastic ) , rigid and locking . Each type is judged by its effect on an enemy unit . For example , a fluid zone of control increases the movement cost of an enemy unit in its grasp ( that is , it slows the enemy unit 's speed ) ; a rigid zone of control will force enemy units to stop and a locking zone of control will prevent an enemy unit from voluntarily leaving its position without combat . A zone of control may produce almost any combination of effects the game designer wishes .   Depending on what a designer is trying to represent , zones of control may be cancelled by terrain features such as mountains and rivers , by the presence of enemy units , or even by enemy zones of control .   Strategy computer games , such as the Civilization series , commonly use zones of control as a method to balance combat and grant extra strength to units in pairs .

The feature , which ran through November 3 , 1946 , with one months-long interruption , was reprinted in comic books published by Quality Comics . A revamped version of the character debuted in 2013 in DC Comics 's Phantom Stranger comic . Lady Luck was ranked 84th in Comics Buyer 's Guide 's `` 100 Sexiest Women in Comics '' list .

neg: Cognitive strategy Cognitive strategies are the specific methods that people use to solve problems , including all sorts of reasoning , planning , arithmetic , etc. .

neg: Functional Strategy Functional strategy - organizational plans prepared for various functional areas of a company 's organizational structure ( e.g. , marketing strategy , financial strategy , production strategy etc. ) . Functional strategies can be part of overall corporate strategy or serve as separate plans of strategy cascading/implementation within a functional area .   Some common functional strategies are :  Production strategy ( `` make or buy '' ) - defines what the company produces itself , and that purchases from suppliers or partners , that is , how far worked out the production chain .  Financial Strategy - to select the main source of funding : the development of their own funds ( depreciation , profit , the issue of shares , etc. ) or through debt financing ( bank loans , bonds , commodity suppliers ' credits , etc. ) .  Organizational strategy - decision on the organization of the staff ( choose the type of organizational structure , compensation system , etc. ) .  others , such as : research and development ( R & D ) strategy , investment strategy , etc. .   In addition , each of the functional strategies can be divided into components . For example , organizational strategy can be divided into three components :   strategy of building organizations - to select the type of structure ( divisional , functional , project , etc. ) ;  strategy to work with the staff - a way of training ( mainly administrative staff ) , training of staff ( in a business or educational institutions ) , career planning , etc. ;  strategy of remuneration ( wages , rewards and penalties ) - in particular , the approach to the compensation of senior managers ( salary , bonuses , profit sharing , etc. ) .   Responsible for implementation of the strategy at the functional level are senior specialists ( Ch . Engineer , Director of Finance ) . At the enterprise level - CEO , general director or director of the department , at the level of groups of companies - a collegiate body ( board of directors ) .

neg: Wonder Woman: Amazonia Wonder Woman : Amazonia is a comic book one-shot , written by William Messner-Loebs , illustrated by Phil Winslade , and published by DC Comics under its Elseworlds imprint . As with all Elseworlds it tells a non-canon story of a DC hero , this time Wonder Woman , outside regular continuity . The story is set between 1888 and 1928 in an alternate history with steampunk overtones , previously considered `` Earth-34 '' in the post-Infinite Crisis DC multiverse , now considered `` Earth-19 '' in the The New 52 ( post - `` Flashpoint '' ) universe .

neg: Foresight (futures studies) In futures studies , especially in Europe , the term `` foresight '' has become widely used to describe activities such as :  critical thinking concerning long-term developments ,  debate and for some futurists who are normative and focus on action driven by their values who may be concerned with effort to create wider participatory democracy . Foresight is a set of competencies and not a value system , however .  shaping the future , especially by influencing public policy .   In the last decade , scenario methods , for example , have become widely used in some European countries in policy-making . The FORSOCIETY network brings together national Foresight teams from most European countries , and the European Foresight Monitoring Project is collating material on Foresight activities around the world . In addition , foresight methods are being used more and more in regional planning and decision -- making ( `` regional foresight '' ) . Several non-European think-tanks like Strategic Foresight Group are also enagaged in foresight studies .   The foresight of futures studies is also known as strategic foresight . this foresight used by and describing professional futurists trained in Master 's programs is the research-driven practice of exploring expected and alternative futures and guiding futures to inform strategy . Foresight includes understanding the relevant recent past ; scanning to collect insight about present , futuring to describe the understood future including trend research ; environment research to explore possible trend breaks from developments on the fringe and other divergencies that may lead to alternative futures ; visioning to define preferred future states ; designing strategies to craft this future ; and adapting the present forces to implement this plan . There is notable but not complete overlap between foresight and strategic planning , change management , forecasting , and design thinking .   At the same time , the use of foresight for companies ( `` corporate foresight '' ) is becoming more professional and widespread Corporate foresight is used to support strategic management , identify new business fields and increase the innovation capacity of a firm .   Foresight is not the same as futures research or strategic planning . It encompasses a range of approaches that combine the three components mentioned above , which may be recast as :  futures ( forecasting , forward thinking , prospectives ) ,  planning ( strategic analysis , priority setting ) , and  networking ( participatory , dialogic ) tools and orientations .   Much futures research has been rather ivory tower work , but Foresight programmes were designed to influence policy - often R&D policy . Much technology policy had been very elitist ; Foresight attempts to go beyond the `` usual suspects '' and gather widely distributed intelligence . These three lines of work were already common in Francophone futures studies going by the name la prospective . But in the 1990s we began to see what became an explosion of systematic organisation of these methods in large scale TECHNOLOGY FORESIGHT programmes in Europe and more widely .   Foresight thus draws on traditions of work in long-range planning and strategic planning , horizontal policymaking and democratic planning , and participatory futures studies - but was also highly influenced by systemic approaches to innovation studies , science and technology policy , and analysis of `` critical technologies '' .   Many of the methods that are commonly associated with Foresight - Delphi surveys , scenario workshops , etc. - derive from the futures field . So does the fact that Foresight is concerned with :   The longer-term - futures that are usually at least 10 years away ( though there are some exceptions to this , especially in its use in private business ) . Since Foresight is action-oriented ( the planning link ) it will rarely be oriented to perspectives beyond a few decades out ( though where decisions like aircraft design , power station construction or other major infrastructural decisions are concerned , then the planning horizon may well be half a century ) .  Alternative futures : it is helpful to examine alternative paths of development , not just what is currently believed to be most likely or business as usual . Often Foresight will construct multiple scenarios . These may be an interim step on the way to creating what may be known as positive visions , success scenarios , aspirational futures . Sometimes alternative scenarios will be a major part of the output of Foresight work , with the decision about what future to build being left to other mechanisms .

neg: Elective rights Two central issues for democracies are the right to candidate , and suffrage or the franchise -- that is , the decision as to who is entitled to vote . For example , Athenian democracy limited the vote to male citizens , while slaves , foreigners , and women of any status were excluded . Requirements and exclusions such as these , along with racial prohibitions , have been common in democracies . The definition of legal personhood has been historically tied up with these questions .   Generally , franchise is restricted on account of one or more of the following :  age ( in all democracies ) ,  gender ,  nationality ,  race ,  religion ,  wealth ,  birth ( e.g. , inherited social status ) ,  education ,  previous crimes , etc. .   Most contemporary democracies agree that only age , citizenship and ( in some jurisdictions ) serious , previously-committed crimes are the only of these restrictions which apply . One prominent exception to this is the limited representation available for denizens of the capital of the United States , Washington , DC ( see District of Columbia voting rights ) .   A recent example of how the `` right to vote '' changed over history is New Zealand , which was the first country to give women the right to vote ( September 19 , 1893 ) , though not the right to be elected . The participation in politics via both candidacy and suffrage in Europe and the Americas is , largely , a 20th-century phenomenon .   Sex equity has been recognized in other ways in other societies , however . The Iroquois Confederacy gave a strong political role to women perhaps to as far back as its origins in the 12th century , although , as in 19th century New Zealand , this was expressed as support for a specific male , not the right to sit in council . The Iroquois Confederacy , like many Native American societies , recognized rituals to allow post-menopausal or powerful widowed women to assume the role of a man -- because of this , it is possible that at some point in its history , the Confederacy permitted a full and formal role to women .   Some limited ( to a greater or lesser degree ) alternative voting and official appointing systems claim to be democratic . One-party states such as the People 's Republic of China apply a limited form of disapproval voting that helps to signal the acceptance of those promoted into new posts . Those who do not receive very high ( over 80 % ) acceptance generally rise no further in rank or position .   Under perestroika , shortly before its collapse , the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics under Mikhail Gorbachev implemented reforms to allow multiple candidates , all from the local Communist Party , to run against each other . Such methods are not generally viewed as providing an equivalent political expression to the right to replace an entire centralized power group by way of election , as can occur in a multi-party system .   Another means of limited democracy is that practiced in the Islamic Republic of Iran , where the right to run as a candidate is controlled by the religious authorities . Such groups as the Communist Party and the Green Party of Iran are excluded from the slate of candidates . Recent elections in Iran have suffered from very low turnout .   In the United States of America , restrictions on the right to vote due to property ownership or lack thereof , and in some places literacy , were common until the Voting Rights Act of 1965 . Today all but a few states deny the right to vote to those who have been convicted of a felony at any point in their past ( voting rights are , in some cases , restored via executive ( on the state or federal level ) pardon ) .   In the European Union every citizen has the right to participate in the elections of the European Parliament . Not every vote is counted equally , however : Voters from bigger countries are significantly underrepresented relative to voters from smaller countries . E.g. , a vote from Luxembourg carries 12 times as much weight as does a vote from Germany . Many places have similar problems with the distribution of votes per region . In the US , a Californian vote carries four times the weight of a Montana vote in the presidential election .   Category : Democracy

neg: The World's Greatest Super-Heroes The World 's Greatest Super-Heroes is the name to the oversized slipcased hardcover anthology collection , that reprinted six oversized graphic novels all created by artist Alex Ross and writer Paul Dini . Four graphic novels were originally published to celebrate the 60th anniversary of DC main characters : Superman , Batman , Captain Marvel and Wonder Woman , thus Superman : Peace on Earth were published in 1998 , Batman : War on Crime in 1999 , Shazam ! : Power of Hope in 2000 and finally Wonder Woman : Spirit of Truth in 2001 . Alex Ross original idea was make a statement about the four superhero comics archetypes : Science Fiction ( Superman ) , Crime/Mystery ( Batman ) , Magic ( Captain Marvel ) and Myth ( Wonder Woman ) .   In the following year , DC Comics also published one extra book : JLA : Secret Origins . Not featuring any storyline whatsoever , it only presented the origins of the four main characters already published in the previous books and the origins of other Justice League characters : Green Lantern , Flash , Green Arrow , Black Canary , Martian Manhunter , Hawkman , Hawkgirl and Plastic Man . Every origin was present in two-pages layout based on Joe Shuster 's origin of Superman from Action Comics # 1 .   The final book , published in 2003 , JLA : Liberty and Justice presented a full story featuring the entire group , the first time that Alex Ross was able to use all characters in the current timeline . The artwork is of Ross ' very own photorealism , and the books themselves were created after the success of Ross ' and writer Mark Waid 's famous Kingdom Come .   The World 's Greatest Super-Heroes was released on August 1 , 2005 on dust-jacket slipcase hardcover edition ( 9.6 '' x 13 '' ) and got paperback reprint ( 8.2 '' x 11 '' ) on September 28 , 2010 . Both collected versions are smaller than the original Treasury Editions ( 10 '' x 13.5 '' ) .

neg: Women's Islamic Initiative in Spirituality and Equality Women 's Islamic Initiative in Spirituality and Equality , ( WISE , or WISE Muslim Women ) is a global organization dedicated to promoting women 's rights , and social justice which is led by Muslim women . WISE takes the stance that patriarchal culture , not Islam , takes away women 's rights and helps Muslims feel that they do not have to choose between their religion and their rights . The organization is able to provide Muslims around the world with a place and platform to discuss interpretations of the Quran , confront harmful traditions and prejudice and also to raise awareness of women in Islam . As an international movement , it has been considered by scholar and social scientist , Julie Pruzan-Jørgensen , to `` hold important potentials for strengthening Arab women 's authority and for pushing for reform of patriarchal practices . '' WISE is sponsored by the New York-based American Society for Muslim Advancement ( ASMA ) .

neg: Scenario planning Scenario planning , also called scenario thinking or scenario analysis , is a strategic planning method that some organizations use to make flexible long-term plans . It is in large part an adaptation and generalization of classic methods used by military intelligence .   The original method was that a group of analysts would generate simulation games for policy makers . The games combine known facts about the future , such as demographics , geography , military , political , industrial information , and mineral reserves , with key driving forces identified by considering social , technical , economic , environmental , and political ( STEEP ) trends .   In business applications , the emphasis on gaming the behavior of opponents was reduced ( shifting more toward a game against nature ) . At Royal Dutch/Shell for example , scenario planning was viewed as changing mindsets about the exogenous part of the world , prior to formulating specific strategies .   Scenario planning may involve aspects of systems thinking , specifically the recognition that many factors may combine in complex ways to create sometime surprising futures ( due to non-linear feedback loops ) . The method also allows the inclusion of factors that are difficult to formalize , such as novel insights about the future , deep shifts in values , unprecedented regulations or inventions . Systems thinking used in conjunction with scenario planning leads to plausible scenario story lines because the causal relationship between factors can be demonstrated . In these cases when scenario planning is integrated with a systems thinking approach to scenario development , it is sometimes referred to as dynamic scenarios .

neg: Events from the Modern Age of Comic Books One of the key aspects of the Modern Age of Comic Books was that it was the beginning of big events . In 1984 , Marvel Comics debuted the first large crossover , Secret Wars , a storyline featuring the company 's most prolific superheroes , which overlapped into a 12-issue limited series and many monthly comic books . A year later , DC Comics introduced its first large scale crossover , Crisis on Infinite Earths , which had long-term effects on the `` DC Universe '' continuity .   In the early and mid-1990s , big events were regularly published by Marvel and DC , often leading to extra publicity and sales . These events helped fend-off competition from Image Comics , and such events were more likely to become `` collector 's items . '' Some events , such as DC 's `` Zero Hour '' and Marvel 's `` Onslaught saga '' spanned a publisher 's entire line while others only affected a `` family '' of interrelated titles . The X-Men and Batman franchises featured crossovers almost annually .   Some of the most significant mid-1990s events , such as Spider-Man 's `` Clone Saga , '' Batman 's `` Batman : Knightfall '' and particularly , `` The Death of Superman '' caused dramatic changes to long-running characters and received coverage in the mainstream media .   These events led to significant sales boosts and publicity , but many fans began to criticize them as excessive and lacking compelling storytelling . They also complained that monthly series had become inaccessible because one had to follow a number of comics to understand the full storyline . By the end of the 1990s , the number of large crossovers decreased , but they were still launched sporadically .

neg: Adaptive expertise Adaptive expertise is a broad construct that encompasses a range of cognitive , motivational , and personality-related components , as well as habits of mind and dispositions . Generally , problem-solvers demonstrate adaptive expertise when they are able to efficiently solve previously encountered tasks and generate new procedures for new tasks . This definition can be contrasted with more traditional ideas of expertise popularized by Chi and others , which do not typically consider adaptation to completely novel situations . Its empirical validity has been examined in a number of training and learning contexts . The term was first coined by Giyoo Hatano and Kayoko Inagaki , to tease out the variability within groups of experts . Hatano and Inagaki , described two types of expertise : routine expertise , or classic expertise , and adaptive expertise . They defined routine expertise as involving mastering procedures in such a way as to become highly efficient and accurate , whereas developing adaptive expertise requires an individual to develop conceptual understanding that allows the `` expert '' to invent new solutions to problems and even new procedures for solving problems . To illustrate , imagine two sushi chefs : one who makes every piece perfectly but routinely makes the same few types over and over ( routine , or classic , expertise ) , and one produces new menus frequently ( adaptive expertise ) . To some , this is an unfair comparison , as ones ' environment supports behavior . For example , the routine of the classic expert sushi chef may be tied to his restaurant environment , and this chef may be able to break out of the routines easily given a different situation . However , the adaptive expert chef clearly demonstrates flexible knowledge and performance of sushi-making . Learning Scientists are interested in adaptive expertise , in part because they would like to understand the types of learning trajectories that may allow practitioners break free from routines when necessary .   There is not , however , a true dichotomy between adaptive and classic expertise . Expertise can be thought of as a continuum of adaptive ability . On one end , practitioners can be classified as `` routinely skilled '' versus `` innovatively competent '' ; as `` artisans '' versus `` virtuosos '' ; or as those approaching a task in a routine versus more flexible way . The notion of adaptive expertise suggests that new problems can be viewed as a platform for exploration in a new problem space and not just an opportunity to practice completing a task more efficiently . For example , adaptability enabled the Apollo 13 crew to successfully build an air filter from ill-fitting parts whilst in space , while the TV chef , Jamie Oliver , is able to flamboyantly and creatively produce good food using only simple ingredients .   A distinguishing feature of adaptive expertise is the ability to apply knowledge effectively to novel problems or atypical cases in a domain . Holyoak characterized adaptive experts as being capable of drawing on their knowledge to invent new procedures for solving unique or fresh problems , rather than simply applying already mastered procedures . Adaptability allows experts to recognize when highly practiced rules and principles do not apply in certain situations in which other solvers might typically attempt to use a previously learned procedure . Moreover , studies have shown that this flexibility can result in better performance than that of classically defined experts , resulting in , amongst other things , better technical trouble shooting ; workplace error avoidance ; and more accurate medical diagnosis . John D. Bransford considers this flexible , innovative application of knowledge , in large part , underlies adaptive experts ' greater tendency to enrich and refine their understanding on the basis of continuing experience to learn from problem-solving episodes .

neg: Machiavellian intelligence In cognitive science and evolutionary psychology , Machiavellian intelligence ( also known as political intelligence or social intelligence ) is the capacity of an entity to be in a successful political engagement with social groups . The first introduction of this concept to primatology came from Frans de Waal 's book `` Chimpanzee Politics '' ( 1982 ) , which described social maneuvering while explicitly quoting Machiavelli . Also known as machiavellianism , it is the art of manipulation in which others are socially manipulated in a way that benefits the user .

neg: Intelligence analysis management Intelligence Analysis Management is the process of managing and organizing the analytical processing of raw intelligence information . The terms `` analysis '' , `` production '' , and `` processing '' denote the organization and evaluation of raw information used in a phase informally called `` connecting the dots '' , thus creating an `` intelligence mosaic '' . The information may result in multiple analytic products , each with different security classifications , time scales , and levels of detail . Intelligence analysis goes back to the beginning of history . Sherman Kent is often considered the father of modern intelligence analysis . His writings include a 1947 book , Strategic Intelligence for American World Policy .   During his career in the Office of Strategic Services and the Central Intelligence Agency ( CIA ) , Kent defined many of the parameters of modern analysis and its use . Kent disagreed with the philosophy that analysts never recommend policy , but only advise policymakers . He considered it a partnership in which the analyst did not push a personal point of view .   Recent scholarship drawing upon theories of the sociology of knowledge has criticized Kent 's work for being over-positivist and for failing to recognize the role the identity and culture of the analytic unit play in formulating , accepting , and rejecting the hypotheses used to collect and analyze intelligence .
