Abstract
—
This essay examines the interconnectedness of whiteness and heterosexual masculinity in the autobiography of Mario Vargas Llosa, EI pez en el agua [A Fish in the Water]. In this text Vargas Llosa critiques Peruvian racism and machismo, and in his self‐portrait attempts to distance himself from the categories of whiteness and masculinity. But in so doing he in fact obscures the workings of race and gender not only in Peruvian society but in his own writing, where the self is implicitly asserted in opposition to an image of nature as the realm of the indigenous and the feminine.

Abstract
Regenerating a business's strategy by conceiving strategic change helps leaders achieve higher and more sustainable financial performance.
Recent shifts in the world economy and new technology have put pressure on many businesses. Cost cutting and clever pricing cannot solve these problems alone because they require systemic attention and qualitative change.
Enterprise architectures seldom deliver expected profits. Standard solutions often reduce the competitive distinctions that sustain prices long run. By addressing the business holistically in full context, this method builds a strategic solution that increases profitability.
This article shows managers how to examine the intrinsic value of their business strategy and then build a more valuable strategy that can be sustained into the future. Conventional and contemporary thinking are combined into a method that managers can use to improve or regenerate a strategy for their organization.
Several checklists and frameworks are provided together with competitive insights on defining, evaluating and conceiving strategic change. These guidelines enable all members of a management team to contribute significantly to strengthening their business.
