This paper explores binge-eating disorder at work. Through autoethnography, experiences and documentation from the first decade of the author's career (2014-2023) are culled in an effort to examine and convey how food and body challenges related to binge-eating disorder may interact with various aspects of working life, such as socializing, collaborating, mentoring, dressing, eating, traveling, attending meetings and conferences, and carrying out basic professional responsibilities. The story has marks of privilege: The job is white collar and cushy, the demographics and socioeconomics are largely advantaged. The hope is that such a perspective may nonetheless advance our understanding, representation, and discussion of food and body struggles at work. Examining how binge-eating disorder may be battled, endured, succumbed to, managed, feared, hidden, shared, ignored, coped with, detested, obsessed over, and despaired of brings forth how individuals may live and work with multiple bodies at once – where each body has its own profile of behaviors and experiences, each body's comings and goings are not wholly predictable, and most bodies are unwanted yet resistant to efforts to discard them. The paper concludes by considering implications of this body multiplicity for our understanding of identity, purposive action, motivation, masculinity, and empathy.

Extraordinary events are exceptional and leave lasting memories in participants’ minds and sometimes in those of a broader audience. Digital technologies, and social media in particular, seem to be playing a growing role in the occurrence of such events. We analyze the physical interactions between actors and their digital exchanges via social media, which shaped the emergence of an event that developed around an unexpectedly successful, self-directed street art phenomenon. Interviews, onsite observations, and statistical analyses of social media traces reveal patterns in which the physical event and its digital counterpart recursively nurtured each other. These factors operated as a complex dissipative system in which independent actors interacted within and across physical and digital boundaries. Physical activities influenced digital activities, which in turn affected artistic creation and fueled the public’s eagerness to participate, transforming the event into a large art happening. Empirical observations reveal that the digitalization of the art show shaped the emergence of the event and stabilized it by placing it in a state of dynamic equilibrium. The event’s evolution, measured by social media activity, followed a Power Law, indicative of a phenomenon induced by multiple interdependent interactions. This signifies the existence of a statistically extreme, rare event.

In recent years, the Amazon rainforest has faced voracious depletion due to logging and farming activities. These activities are often justified as necessary for economic development in the region. However, effective leadership, particularly at the local level, can play a crucial role in promoting simultaneously both economic growth and ecological sustainability. This study examines the effects of leaders’ occupational background in agribusiness on economic development and environmental preservation. We employ a Regression Discontinuity Design (RDD) to compare the performance of marginally elected (almost randomly) agribusiness leaders with non-agribusiness leaders in terms of new firm creation and deforestation rates in Brazilian Amazon municipalities from 2004 to 2016. Our findings suggest that agribusiness leaders are more effective than their non-agribusiness counterparts in promoting the creation of new businesses in their municipalities. This increased economic activity has not necessarily been accompanied by higher deforestation rates. The analysis of mechanisms shows the importance of fiscal policies, which are under the control of local leaders, in promoting economic prosperity without sacrificing environmental sustainability. This study underscores the need to move beyond simplistic notions of “heroes” and “villains” in the quest to reconcile economic and ecological objectives as aimed by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
