This article reflectively deals with the course taken by the journal over the 60 years it has been in existence, based on the author's experience as someone who was been associated with RAE-Revista de Administração de Empresas for all these years. We deal with its beginning as a pioneering periodical of business administration that divulged concepts, theories and practices that are predominantly American in origin, until we reach today when it emerges as a journal that has left behind its generalist origin and has begun to emphasize areas such as Organization and Organizational Studies, Strategy and Human Resources or People Management. Initially as a journal that was identified with a business school, FGV EAESP, it became a Brazilian journal with its own authors, consultants and associate editors from other institutions, and today it is working to establish itself as an international journal that is published in Portuguese and English, and that deals with contemporary topics mostly from a critical perspective. The growing methodological sophistication of the journal and the topics it publishes are a far cry from the early years, when it was a journal we could consider to be provincial. There is no doubt that we have made progress. Congratulations and a happy 60 years to RAE. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Management education as developed in the United States became prominent worldwide after the end of World War Two. Many authors considered this part of the Americanization process going on in many other ways of life. This article starts by disagreeing with this current position on Americanization when dealing with management education. The objective is to present the case of the São Paulo School of Business Administration/Getulio Vargas Foundation as not being a literal replica of the US business Schools in the Brazilian educational landscape. Based upon reports of the US Mission, that was responsible for assisting in the creation of the school, and in interviews with Brazilian professors that participated in the process working with the mission, a school historiography was developed. The conclusion was that a hybrid institution resulted where the American management education model was reshaped in order to conform to Brazilian reality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Dogs have coexisted with humans for centuries. In the West, in particular, their social representations have made them the object of esteem and care, with an important role in various activities. More recently, the social role of dogs has expanded. In the USA, they begin to become part of firms, having been brought into the work environment. The article analyzes the bases of this phenomenon and their advantages in terms of people management today. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
