Avoiding Theoretical Stagnation: A Systematic Review and Framework for Measuring Public Value

Public value theory has become a hot topic in public administration research, but its proponents have long recognised difficulties in empirically testing the theory's central propositions. There has been a lack of clarity about how to measure the extent to which organisations are generating public value, which has rendered researchers unable to quantitatively study the causes, consequences and correlates of public value. The current study systematically reviews the growing literature on public value measurement to identify, evaluate, and synthesise available measures. Through a qualitative synthesis of the themes present in published measures, we identify four key components for measuring public value that appear to be important across a range of policy and national contexts. Our review identifies a promising framework that could be used to structure a comprehensive measure of public value and, in doing so, provides a means to progress theoretical development and testing of the public value approach.     

A Knowledge‐Based Approach to Public Value Management: A Case Study of Change Implementation in Disability Services in Western Australia

This paper provides a knowledge‐based perspective to understanding public value management (PVM). As distinct from other approaches to public administration, PVM focuses on collaborative capacity building for the creation of public value. To develop the notion of PVM further, we explore the role of a knowledge‐based strategy in a case study of change implementation in 18 disability service organisations in Western Australia. Our findings show important inter‐relationships between knowledge management strategy, adopting a person‐centred approach to service provision, and sustainability of change implementation. We discuss the implications of the study for disability sector change management and for the further exploration of the strategic role of knowledge management capabilities in the study and practice of PVM in public sector administration. The paper explores the relationship between an organisation's knowledge capture and sharing systems and processes and its ability to implement change in a way that generates long‐term benefits for both public sector employees (e.g., engaging with key stakeholders to generate innovative solutions for serving client needs) and clients (i.e., increased well‐being through better service design and support).

家务劳动的经济价值及其法律保护

在广义劳动价值论视野,家务劳动是社会必要劳动,是提供劳动力产品、创造经济价值的劳动.目前在我国,家务劳动的法律保护缺失,这对家庭的分工合作、社会的稳定和谐有着直接的影响.因此,有必要建立完善的家务劳动保护法律制度,将家务劳动作为国家正式职业列入全国职业分类,政府部门应建立家务劳动的评估标准和体系.     

法治实践中价值、规范与事实关系初探

法是存在于价值、规范和事实三个不同界域中的统一体.在这三种界域当中,法律中分别以价值形态、规范形态和事实形态存在.法的这三种形态既有明显区别、彼此独立,又互相连接并互相转化.从这一基本原理出发,可以揭示出法治的新结构与新内涵,即法治是一个包括立法、守法、执法和司法及其后的反思评价三个不同阶段及其不同内容的完整统一体.     

从传统文化探析日本人的和谐观

法制现代化的哲学思考

从哲学的层面对法制现代化这一重要的社会现象进行思考与探讨,有助于我们加深对法制现代化基本内涵的认识和对法制现代化进程的把握。人的现代化是法制现代化的核心与逻辑起点。民众对法律的信仰是法制现代化的心理基础。自由、平等、正义是法制现代化的价值目标。     

普世价值存在性论争的逻辑起点

绝大多数论者在关于普世价值存在性的讨论时,忽视了论争的逻辑起点,即普世价值与普世价值观的界分,就是说他们往往把普世价值误解为普世价值观、普世价值追求或者普世伦理,而这源于把价值误解为价值观。     

资本、机器、土地为什么不创造剩余价值

资本的本质是增值,资本不转化为生产要素就不会增值;机器是无数代人劳动积累的结果,构成机器的各部分也不创造剩余价值;自然资源土地也不会创造剩余价值。相反,前人积累的劳动价值、自然资源的价值都是公共的,都应归公共所有,因而社会主义是人类社会发展的必然。
