论民法典的形式、价值与中国民法典

民法典是大陆法系国家民事法律系统化的传统,其表现为形式上的合理性,内容上储藏着以人为本的理念,以自由、平等为其基本要素,并以此规制着人类的社会秩序。中国一向缺乏私法传统,而经济制度和社会结构的变迁,使民法典的制定成为客观上的需求。面对民法价值模式的变迁,确定我们的民法价值观的选择,以实现中国民法典目的和理想。     

执政党不忘初心、牢记使命的制度建设研究

不忘初心、牢记使命是中国共产党对全体党员的价值要求,是执政党对广大人民群众的政治承诺。十九届四中全会提出要建设不忘初心、牢记使命的制度,是不忘初心、牢记使命主题教育常态化的现实要求,也是提升执政党制度建设水平的内在要求,更是提升执政党治理水平、巩固执政地位的迫切需求。不忘初心、牢记使命制度作为党内重要制度,涵盖着党员教育、党员学习与党性修养等制度,与干部选拔任用制度、纪检检查制度等相衔接。推动不忘初心、牢记使命制度落地生根,就要建立党中央领导、各级党委负责的领导机制,将不忘初心、牢记使命上升为党章要求,通过尊重党员主体地位、调动党员积极性等方面来推动不忘初心、牢记使命制度的落实。

社会主义市场经济条件下工会的根本历史使命--对"组织起来,切实维权"的再认识

当今我国市场经济体制日趋完善,与市场经济共生的各类矛盾也相伴而生。在众多矛盾中,劳动关系矛盾非常突出。协调好劳动关系,是构建和谐社会的关键问题。作为协调劳动关系主角的工会,其作用也随之凸显出来。“组织起来,切实维权”作为协调劳动关系的根本原则,理所当然地成为工会工作的指导方针,成为社会主义市场经济条件下工会的历史使命。     

新世纪中国西部发展与公共管理学的使命

研究领域和范围偏狭,西部发展问题公共管理研究的缺席,是我国公共管理学存在的严重缺陷。拓展公共管理学的研究视角,关注西部地区的发展问题,探索适合西部地区的公共管理模式,在西部地区现代化进程中发挥应有的作用,是21世纪中国公共管理学的重要历史使命。公共管理学应该在与其他学科进行对话的基础上,立足于西部地区公共管理环境,研究以政府为核心的公共部门如何对该地区多民族传统文化的保护与管理,对自然生态环境的保护与管理,对公共产品的提供与管理,对民族关系的协调与管理,以及加强危机管理研究,为西部地区经济建设与政治体制改革创造良好的公共管理环境发挥独特作用。     

How Organizational Identity Affects Hospital Performance: Comparing Predictive Power of Mission Statements and Sector Affiliation

Abstract

Organizational identity is an important concept in organizational theory, as it can contextualize the behavior of organizations and members. The literature presents divergent perspectives on organizational identity: some studies have characterized organizational identity as constrained by institutional forces, whereas others have contended it is socially constructed by organizational members. Studies have largely focused on the former perspective, measuring organizational identity by sector affiliation; the latter approach has rarely been empirically tested. Therefore, in addition to sector affiliation, this article proposes a different approach to operationalizing organizational identity by examining hospitals’ mission statements. The study also examines which of these dual forces have more predictive power regarding organizational performance. Together with hospitals’ sector affiliation, we test how the presence and frequency of mission statement language regarding access, cost, quality, or unique organizational values affect hospitals’ various performance metrics. Regression analyses with 172 acute hospitals in Florida reveal significant relationships between types of mission statement content, sectors, and performance indicators.     

Exit, voice, and loyalty in international organizations: US involvement in the League of Nations

Recent challenges to traditional international relations theory have questioned the nature of international organizations (IOs) as agents of powerful state-members and have examined various conduits through which non-state actors can voice their concerns. Yet little work has focused on participation in IOs when a powerful state’s official position contradicts the goals of actors within it. This article examines the archival record of American involvement in the League of Nations’ economic section to explore such a circumstance. I correct the prevailing historical view of American isolationism in the interwar period and argue that participation by advanced, industrial democracies can better be understood as combinations of exit, voice, and loyalty on the part of individual components of state and civil societies.

A community under siege: exclusionary education policies and indigenous Santals* in the Bangladeshi context

Abstract

This article presents and analyses the voices and responses of the research participants about the impact of exclusionary formal and informal education policies imposed on the Santal community in Palashpur, Bangladesh (Palashpur is a pseudonym for the site of my research; it is also a metaphor for contested space where the colonial power and politics of the nation state exert domination and subordination). These policies are implemented through a state-led, centralised, monolingual and exclusionary curriculum in local primary and secondary schools, schools run by the churches, and schools supported by nongovernmental organisations. The education policies in Bangladesh bear the legacy of the combined forces of cultural homogenisation and social exclusion rooted in the colonial learning structure and its objectives. Embedded in these policies are elements of the civilising mission, an ultra-religious assimilative but exclusionary nationalistic agenda, and Western values of modernity and development. In this rural context, these alien ideologies and practices in education are actively engaged in eliminating local institutions, the knowledge system of indigenous peoples, the texture of their lives, their joy of living, their spirituality and their sense of being. This article reveals how, imposed from above, education policy and practices have dispersed an indigenous community to negotiate a life that goes against the interests of the community itself and its members.

Exploring Collaboration,Its Antecedents,and Perceived Outcomes in Service Partnerships of Community-Based Organizations in South Florida

This article examines the temporal sequence of inter-organizational collaboration by investigating what factors contribute to collaboration and which collaboration practices influence collaborative outcomes in service partnerships formed by community-based organizations (CBOs) in South Florida. The article uses structural equation modeling to test the service partnership model. Findings indicate that development of service partnerships are mostly affected by environmental factors related to solving social problems (p < 0.001) which accounts for 37% of variance in inter-organizational collaboration. In addition, cognitive and resource reciprocity, indicators used to measure inter-organizational collaboration, had statistically significant influence (p < 0.001) on perceived collaboration outcomes. These findings shed light on how CBOs transfer theirs social mission in collaborative actions to alleviate social problems. Implications of this study can help service partnerships in identifying best practices and areas for improvement which are needed to build capacity at the inter-organizational level.
