A Grounded Theory of Korean Immigrants' Experiences of Re-Establishing Everyday Activities in New Zealand

This study explored how immigrants locate themselves in a new culture through analyzing 25 Korean immigrants' everyday activities in New Zealand. The findings suggest that they opted to either behave in Korean ways or to take up behaviors reflective of the receiving society, based on their level of control over activities disrupted by immigration. The findings supplement the concept of acculturation, explaining how 21st-century immigrants who retain transnational status engage in the acculturation process within a globalized context.     

Abating the Consequences of Managerialism on the Forgotten Employees: The Issues of Support,Control, Coping,and Pay

With the widespread and continuing adoption of managerialism in the public sector, ignoring the impact of change on employees could prevent managerialism from achieving its goals. Subsequently, this study investigates the efficacy of an augmented demand-control-support (D-C-S) model in predicting three of the key employee outcomes in the context of organizational change—psychological health, job satisfaction, and organizational commitment. Analyses of a survey of 207 employees in the Australian public sector, a sector that has undergone, and continues to undergo, substantial change toward managerialism, found that the augmented D-C-S model explained a significant proportion of the employee outcomes in the public sector context. The most important variables were work-based social support and job control. Coping style and perceptions of work conditions, such as pay, were also significant. The augmented D-C-S model provides a useful, proven tool for managers operating within the contemporary public sector.

SUMMARY

The Hawaiian Studies Program (HSP) integrates the learning of Hawaiian culture with more traditional secondary curriculum in science, social studies, and English. Students also participate in weekly community service-learning sessions. Fifty-five HSP students and 29 peers (who were not involved in the program), completed a survey measuring: students' connection to, pride in, and responsibility for their community; civic attitudes; and career knowledge and preparedness. HSP teachers, community members, and students were also interviewed about program outcomes. Compared to other peers, HSP students tended to report feeling more connected to their community and school and to agree that they had career-related skills. Participants believed that service-learning contributed to these outcomes by making connections between school and community life and by exposing students to a variety of careers.

应当赋予律师绝对保守职业秘密的权利与义务

目前,我国律师保守职业秘密的规则尚未完全确立,但随着无罪推定、罪疑从无等原则在诉讼程序中逐步确立,这一现状不利于全面地保障当事人的权益,与律师职业特性相悖,且与国际通行做法相离甚远。因此,赋予律师绝对保守职业秘密的权利与义务,是整个诉讼制度和律师制度的良性运作所必需要的。

“性恶论”视野下之职务犯罪问题思考

我国的主流思想历来坚信人性本善,然而在职务犯罪中,对人性的过于信任,难免会让人陷入道德理想主义的泥潭,这不利于职务犯罪的惩治和预防。将性恶论的思想引入职务犯罪体系,一方面,可以促使监督者以看待犯罪嫌疑人的姿态来审视权力者,这有利于监督者加大对权力运行的监督力度;另一方面,公职人员也会以权力的危险性来认识权力,这有利于公职人员在行使职权时提高警惕,时刻自我监督和自我内省。
