Limits to non‐state market regulation: A qualitative comparative analysis of the international sport footwear industry and the Fair Labor Association

Non‐state market regulation has become a central focus and continues to receive scholarly attention. The present paper provides an assessment of the conditions under which multinational firms join a multi‐stakeholder certification initiative. The cases of the Fair labor Association and 17 international sport footwear companies have been selected for this purpose. A Qualitative Comparative Analysis of the 17 cases is performed. The paper argues that the combination of sustained NGO pressure and public ownership of a firm is a necessary precondition for firms joining a multi‐stakeholder certification initiative. The theoretical and policy implications of this result are discussed.     

论新时期寻根电影思潮的发展历程

新时期寻根电影对传统文化,或批判或皈依,都充溢着浓郁的文化意蕴。从1980年代的“电影民族化”大讨论开始,到90年代新民俗电影的兴盛,新时期寻根电影思潮的发展历程依稀可辨。80年代中期以后,电影界自觉地呼应文学界的文化寻根运动,一批寻根电影相继问世,展现了这一思潮的创作实绩。进入90年代以后,在主旋律电影和商业电影对艺术电影的挤压和吸附的生存困境中,电影依然充溢着绵延不断的寻根精神,一部分呈现出强烈的皈依趋向,另一部分如新民俗电影集中对传统文化进行批判,产生了广泛的影响。     

启蒙、理性与神话——浅谈霍克海默和阿道尔诺对启蒙的批判

霍克海默和阿道尔诺作为法兰克福学派的第一批理论家,凭借他们敏锐的洞察力认识到,启蒙在帮助人们摆脱了神话的控制,并且声称要为人们带来完全的自由和彻底的解放的同时,又将人类带入了另外一个温柔的陷阱——一个更加美丽的神话当中。因此,如何揭穿这个虚伪的神话就成为了他们首当其冲的任务。

Corporate Incubators: Industrial R&D and What Universities can Learn from them

The explosive growth of incubation has seen a concurrent and significant increase in research on and knowledge of the incubation phenomenon. However, instead of comprehensively differentiating between non-profit and for-profit incubators, research has described a whole array of partly overlapping archetypes, thus missing out on important aspects. This article first offers two arguments validating a framework of what non-profit university incubators can learn from for-profit corporate incubators before presenting the framework itself. While corporate incubators are for-profit organizations with which to enhance a corporation’s technology development, university incubators try to leverage technological insights from the university in a similar manner. In accordance with their respective missions, organizational structures, incubator processes and resource flows, it is possible to transfer lessons learned from two corporate incubator archetypes—the fast-profit incubator and leveraging incubator—to the world of university incubator. Our empirical findings are based on in-depth case studies of 25 companies through 52 semi-structured interviews with managers of corporate incubators of large technology-intensive corporations in Europe and the U.S., two EU incubator benchmarking surveys and five interviews with the heads of technology transfer offices of two top technology universities.

Managing Complex Collaborative Projects: Lessons from the Development of a New Satellite

This paper examines the case of a Complex Product System (CoPS)—a new satellite—and the combination of international firms and agencies that contributed to its development. Despite many political, organisational and interpersonal tensions, divergent objectives and strategic misjudgements, the satellite was successfully launched in 2002. It was found that a number of factors contributed to the successful conclusion of the project, including the evolution of organisational structures between different actors as the project progressed, the use of a range of innovation management tools accompanied by personnel with significant discretion and judgement, and a unifying methodology for satellite production called the Small Satellite Philosophy (SSP), which helped provide an approach for its effective integration. The paper describes the satellite project and the problems of technology transfer it confronted, then examines whether the solutions adopted could be appropriate for other complex innovative projects, particularly those involving joint public–private investments. It also describes the interaction between development time, mission cost, risk and return in reduced resource CoPS. Although the satellite itself was a technical success, government policy objectives for the project were not realised and the paper considers mismatches between policy objectives and mechanisms in complex projects.
