----------------------------------------------------------------- Mailing Lists: Management Education in Transition Countries ----------------------------------------------------------------- The Maine Business School manages three internet mailing lists which may be of interest to list members who follow management education issues in transition economies.

The mailing list for the Russian Association of Business Education (RABE) has been activated today. A brief profile of RABE-L is attached to this note. For more information about the Russian Association of Business Education, please feel free to contact Natalia Evtikhieva, Director General of RABE. Her e-address: mailto:4257.g23@g23.relcom.ru

The Maine Business School also manages two related lists: UKRAINE and CEEMAN-L. The UKRAINE list (114 list members in 9 countries) serves a purpose similar to that of the RABE-L list, but focuses on management education topics in Ukraine. The CEEMAN-L list (821 list members in 45 countries), managed on behalf of the Central and East European Management Development Association (CEEMAN), located in Slovenia, posts announcements related to management education in the Baltics, Central/Eastern Europe, Russia, Central Asia, Mongolia, and Vietnam. Postings to the CEEMAN-L list are archived at the University of Geneva. To review postings to date in 1998, you may go the following URL:

List members who would like to be on any of the lists can send a request directly to me at the e-mail address noted below. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Profile: RABE-L Internet List ----------------------------------------------------------------- RABE-L is an internet mailing list administered at the Maine Business School (USA) on behalf of the Russian Association of Business Education (RABE) and managed by Dr. Dennis McConnell. Most list members are representatives of business schools and management training programs in Russia, and international organizations interested in working with business schools in Russia.

The primary purpose of RABE-L is to provide information to faculty and academic administrators in Russia who have been isolated from important information sources for many years. The list also seeks to facilitate cooperation and collaboration among business schools and management training institutions in Russia. The list serves more as a bulletin board than as a traditional internet discussion list. The list is moderated (all messages to the list are first screened by the list manager) - a feature which protects the e-mail budgets of list members who are required to pay substantial fees to receive e-mail at some locations in Russia.

As list manager, my task is to monitor many electronic and print information sources, to learn of new publications and information resources, academic conferences, publishing and consulting opportunities, and funding programs for research and academic exchanges. Any information that would seem to be of interested to Russian business/management educators is posted to RABE-L.

Interested individuals from other countries are welcome to join the mailing list, and may find some of the postings useful / interesting. However, the primary purpose of the list is to serve the information needs of Russian faculty and educational administrators.

Faculty and administrators in Russian business schools, manag- ement training institutions, and economics programs, and other individuals interested in the development of such programs in Russia, can be added to the RABE-L mailing list by sending a message directly to the list manager (mailto:Mac@maine.edu). Please provide your name, e-mail address, postal address, institutional affiliation, and academic/professional interests.
