Core self-evaluations in the military context： Relative effects on job satisfaction and organizational commitment

This study validates the construct of core self-evaluations （CSE） and examines the relationship of CSE with global job satisfaction and organizational commitment in the military context. Analytical results from 114 sergeants in the military school are summarized as follows： （1） Analytical results validate the convergent and discriminant validity of the constructs; （2） CSE has significant positive relationships with global job satisfaction and organizational commitment. This study provides practical implications for management in both business and military organizations and suggestions for future studies.     

The land grab and corporate food regime restructuring

Land grab appears to be a phenomenal expression of deepening contradictions in the corporate food regime. In particular, the end of cheap food (signaled in the 2008 ‘food crisis’) has generated renewed interest in agriculture for development on the part of the development industry, matched by a rising interest in offshore land investments, driven by governments securing food and fuel exports and financiers speculating on commodity futures and land price inflation. This paper interprets these developments as illusory solutions to a fundamental accumulation crisis of the neoliberal project. While this new (and final?) enclosure registers a restructuring of the food regime, as its geopolitical relations and productive content re-centers on Southern land and an emergent bioeconomic imperative, it is likely to only buy time (and space) in the short run for political and economic elites and a global consuming class. In the longer run, the attempt to resolve food regime contradictions by a spatial fix may well be catastrophic.     

从全球女性主义到跨国女性主义--兼论跨国女性主义的知识生产

当前,全球化正以摧枯拉朽之势,冲破民族国家的疆界,迅速改写着地方、国家和地区的意义。对妇女而言,全球化的发展,一方面使超越国家边界的妇女问题迅速攀升,如贫困的女性化,女性移民人口的增长,等等;另一方面也增强了妇女运动在全球范围里的连接,比如联合国的世界妇女大会,跨国NGO妇女组织和因特网。为界定这些全球化的新发展,推动全球范围内妇女运动的发展,自上世纪后期,“全球女性主义”,“跨国女性主义”的概念先后出现。本文将以上世纪70年代之后历次联合国世界妇女大会的实践为开端,进而转入对全球女性主义的思想理念——全球姐妹情谊(globalsisterhood)的分析,然后通过对跨国女性主义的实践和理论的介绍,进一步考察跨国女性主义的知识生产过程的特点。     

全球环境治理的有效性

全球环境治理经过三十多年的发展,已经形成了一个体制。然而,这个体制是有效的吗?为了回答这个问题,本文首先界定了全球环境治理有效性的概念和前提,然后分析了全球环境治理体制的功能与要素,随后根据确立的分析框架,评估了现有全球环境治理体制的有效性,并且认为该体制的有效性得分是中等偏低的。这也表明了该体制进行改革的必要性。论文最后提出了相关的政策建议。     

Building an integrated issue management process as a source of sustainable competitive advantage

This paper defines the key values, principal participants and operational requirements that characterise a strategically relevant global issue management process. It is the authors' intention to reveal and provide support for the most important ‘truth’ about this great discipline: ‘Excellence and relevance is determined by the optimal mix of dedicated, focused and highly imaginative people with processes that unleash their remarkable innovative potential. You need both.’ Copyright © 2002 Henry Stewart Publications.     

Direct and Derived Policies: Illicit Drug Use and Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Australia

We distinguish two types of public policy issues: direct issues, in which concern comes bottom-up from the electorate at large; and derived issues, in which pressure for change comes top-down from expert opinion. We outline two continuing, contentious issues: policies towards illegal drug use and policies towards the prospect of global climate change. We argue that the media play a role in both policies' formulation: chaneling concern up in direct policy, and maintaining general interest and motivating the electorate to accept the pain of change in derived policy.

中华文明的世界主义对于构建全球伦理可有之贡献

中华明自古就有一个世界主义的传统，有破“国家中心论”的较低层次的世界主义，如梁启超、顾炎武；有破“区域中心论”的较高层次的世界主义，如先秦诸家；有破“人类中心论”的最高层次的世界主义，如张载、陆象山、康有为。世界主义的各种形态，在中华明中是齐备的。建立“全球伦理”这座大厦，需要动用全人类的智慧资源。中华明之世界主义在此重大构建活动中，至少可有如下之贡献：可以对全球伦理之各项要求提供全方位的支持；可以纠全球伦理之所偏，帮助全球伦理获得平衡稳定的发展；可以为全球伦理之实现提供方法与途径；可以提升全球伦理之视野，使全球伦理真正成为“普世伦理”或“普遍伦理”，把全球伦理之“全球”视野，提升到“宇宙”视野、“天下”视野。     

全球金融危机视阈下的宽严相济刑事政策之演进

全球金融危机的强烈危害性、综合性、规律性分别同现行宽严相济刑事政策的立法理念、运作结构、具体制定存在差异。而全球金融危机又进一步推动了刑罚的宽缓化、凸显了社会多元主体在刑法治理中之重要性,并加速了刑法治理的技术化。通过对立法理念、运作结构、具体制定三方面路径依赖进行调整,该政策便能充分发挥出刑法的社会调控矫正机能。     

Global economic resilience: Analyzing the diverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the US,Pakistan, and the world

The economic development of a state can be accurately characterized as the measurable changes in macroeconomic indicators that result in an increase in the overall production or output over a specific timeframe, in comparison to the previous period. Several key macroeconomic factors contribute to the advancement of economic growth. These factors include the industrial production, unemployment rate, business Confidence Index, government budget deficit, and the labor force participation rate. The study employed secondary data from January 2016 to August 2023, with a monthly frequency, to estimate the coefficients. The data encompassed the United States, Pakistan, and the rest of the world. The empirical findings indicate that there exists a negative relationship between equality and economic growth in the United States, Pakistan, and other countries worldwide. The findings demonstrate that the global pandemic has had a notable impact on the industrial production of the World, the United States, and Pakistan, with an initial increase followed by a gradual decline. The unemployment rates in the United States, Pakistan, and the rest of the world have experienced a substantial decline. Simultaneously, the rate of unemployment has witnessed a notable increase, resulting in significant and adverse effects on the respective economies. The decrease in the Business Confidence Index can be attributed to heightened levels of uncertainty, which in turn have had a detrimental impact on the gross domestic product of the United States, Pakistan, and other countries worldwide. The reduction in imports has resulted in a decrease in the government budget deficit, which has had a notable impact on the economy.
