The Influence of Emotional Labor and Emotional Intelligence on Job Performance: Does Ownership Type Matter? A Comparison of Public and Private Organizations in China

ABSTRACT

Given the limited knowledge about the effect of contextual factors of organizational ownership types on emotional labor, this research addresses two main questions: (1) whether emotional labor varies among organizations with different ownership types; and (2) whether emotional labor and emotional intelligence relate to job performance in different ways in public and private organizations. This paper examines the research questions with 306 self-report questionnaires from the public sector, domestic privately-owned enterprises and foreign-invested firms in China. Significant differences were found in the emotional labor reported in public and private organizations. Overall, emotional labor was found to have a significant effect on in-role performance, and emotional intelligence moderated the link between emotional labor and job performance in public organizations, but not in private organizations.     

“Dieselgate:” How Different Approaches to Decentralization,the Role of NGOs,Tort Law and the Regulatory Process Affected Comparative U.S. and European Union Outcomes in the Biggest Scandal in Automotive History

ABSTRACT

The VW diesel emissions scandal (“dieselgate”) recounts how Volkswagen became ensnared in a self-inflicted and staggeringly costly cheating scandal that started in the U.S. and then spread to the European Union. This case study shows how fundamental differences in comparative public administration (CPA) between the U.S. and the European Union (EU) led to different consequences for one of the world’s largest and most highly-regarded European auto manufacturers with respect to four institutional variables: (a) approaches to decentralization, (b) the role of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), (c) civil (tort) law, and (d) regulatory environment.

中国社区民间组织法律治理机制探析

社区民间组织具有基层性、规模需求和影响相对小、数量多的属性。目前对社区民间组织的法律治理已基本做到了有法可依,各地也积累了一定的实践经验,但社区民间组织在成立门槛、竞争主体、活动资源、内部自律和外部监督等方面还存在诸多问题。当前应针对社区民间组织本身的特点,结合实践经验,完善社区民间组织的立法,并通过立法和法律的实施建立促进该组织发展的准入、竞争、激励和监督等四大法律治理机制。

评"西方列宁学"关于列宁政党学说的观点

在列宁的思想中,知识分子创造科学社会主义理论与无产阶级创造这种理论是统一的,在革命斗争过程中党同无产阶级的关系是一种密切的宣传与被宣传、鼓动与被鼓动的关系,而不是取代者与被取代者的关系。“西方列宁学”所谓列宁以“知识分子”取代无产阶级或者以“党”取代无产阶级的说法是对列宁新型无产阶级政党学说的歪曲。列宁十分注重处理好党中央与党的地方组织之间的关系,十分重视发挥党的地方组织的作用和党员的作用;作为党的领袖的列宁,一向尊重党的代表大会和中央全会的意见,执行党的决议。“西方列宁学”提出列宁以党中央取代党的地方组织和党员,以自己取代党中央,是完全站不住脚的。     

浅论公益性社会中介组织的行为约束

公益性社会中介组织的公共责任机制在目前的中国存在严重的制度缺失。考虑到制度缺失的完善是需要一个过程的,因此,内部的“自律”就自然地成了构建公益性社会中介组织责任机制的核心。     

国际非政府组织——主权国家不可忽视的力量

国际非政府组织是近二三十年来国际舞台上十分活跃的非国家行为主体.其庞大的数量、宏观的全球视野、强烈的道义性和在国际政治领域内不断增强的作用,都从不同角度影响着主权国家的外交.但是,国际非政府组织自身的各种结构性缺陷又不同程度地制约其全球影响力的发挥.面对这一国际政治现实,崛起的中国应在加强对国际非政府组织研究的同时,以积极稳妥的方式促成同国际非政府组织间的良性互动.     

试析部分农村基层组织的黑社会化倾向

由于黑社会势力的侵袭、腐蚀甚至吞噬 ,部分农村基层组织存在着黑社会化的倾向。农村基层组织的黑社会化倾向主要表现为部分农村基层组织的性质、人员构成和干部的所作所为均发生了很大的变化 ;其重要原因是职权的弱化和丧失 ,管理手段的简单和乏力以及农村基层组织领导人中“能人”的缺乏 ;其基本方式是由红转黑 ,由黑转“红”和以黑压红。
