The Relationship between the Leadership Effectiveness and Emotional Competence of Managers in the Public Sector

This article reports on the perceived relationship between leadership effectiveness and the emotional competencies of managers in the public sector, and the impact of this relationship on service delivery. In the light of continual protests over government’s poor service delivery to the public, doubts are raised about the leadership effectiveness of public officials. Research has identified the leadership effectiveness of managers in the public service as crucial for quality service delivery. Industrial psychologists have also identified leadership effectiveness and emotional competencies as important ingredients for success in organizations. This is due to the facts that effectiveness and efficiency can be attained only if an appropriate leadership style and manager’s emotional competencies or abilities are in place. Findings from the research indicate that currently managers in the public sector possess insufficient emotional competencies to subdue emotional outbursts and achieve effective leadership. Based on the findings and the literature, the conclusion is that it is imperative for managers of public entities to acquire effective leadership skills and become emotionally competent. Relevant training and interventions, and a comprehensive management recruitment process, should be put in place.

法学知识的属性与进步

法学理论的创新是当下学术界法治论式中的一种普遍诉求 ,但是 ,法学理论研究中的这种创新努力是建立在科学主义的法学本体论和方法论基础上的。自 1 9世纪以来形成的科学主义对人文社会科学的影响不仅在西方 ,而且在中国都是深远、厚重的 ,这种科学主义对我国法学理论和法律实践的负面影响也是广泛深刻的。由于法学理论作为一种人文社会科学知识与科学有着十分广泛且重要的区别 ,因此 ,尽管我们需要在法学理论的研究中坚持科学精神 ,但科学主义却是我们应当警惕的。否则 ,围绕理论创新所进行的各种努力恰恰可能滞碍我们所希望得到的进步

Manliness,Religion, and Our Manly Scientists

The source of the manly exaggerations characteristic of members of our species is our abstract and idealistic ability to imagine ourselves as more than we really are. Our scientists are right that religious cruelty has often been the product of our manly inclination to exaggerate our personal importance. Our scientists, however, characteristically forget that we also have the abstract and idealistic ability to imagine ourselves as less than we really are. Surely their theoretical manliness or proud self-transcendence is also unrealistically self-confident, and it can even produce its own forms of “dehumanizing” cruelty. In spite of our scientists’ criticisms, the truth will always be known by a particular person, and any realistic account of all we can know must include room for persons.

生成整体论视野下的乡土聚落研究方法

文章针对乡土聚落既有研究方法的不足,基于生成整体论的哲学思维与人居环境科学作为复杂科学的契合性,提出"源头-节点-边界-格局"的乡土聚落的整体研究框架,该方法的特征为大主导小、空间嵌套、时间包含,以尺度交叉的学科集群为研究途径。案例在流域的整体视野下,以盐的生产与流通为线索,探讨沘江流域内外的盐井、村落与古桥的空间关联性。认为,生成整体论赋予乡土聚落的研究方法以普遍意义:从分析思维走向生成思维;重视多尺度、多学科的视角转换;积极面对经典空间研究的转向。     

The European Union in global environmental governance: Leadership in the making?

For well over a decade, the European Union (EU) has proclaimed its leadership role in global environmental governance (GEG). In this article, we examine both the nature of its leadership and the underlying conditions for ‘actorness’ upon which leadership must depend. The EU’s record in the global conferences as well as its influence on the reform of the Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) are also investigated. We argue that the EU has frequently sought to shape international environmental negotiations and promote sustainable development as an organising principle of global governance. Despite its inadequate status at the UN and internal problems, it has had a significant effect on the global agenda. However, due to persistent diplomatic opposition from other coalitions, its real, directly visible influence has been more modest. For genuine directional leadership, which goes beyond the defence of self-interest, the Union will have to make internal policy coherence a greater priority. Moreover, apart from relying solely on its weighty presence in the international system or its potential capabilities, the EU needs to achieve a high level of credibility in order to enhance its powers of persuasion.

中关村知识产权发展问题浅析

作为中国首个国家自主创新示范区,中关村理应成为中国知识产权战略实施的桥头堡。但是,与国际知名园区相比,中关村的知识产权发展水平存在较大差距,与国内的深圳、浙江等地的知识产权发展水平相比,中关村的优势也并不明显,这一点与中关村集中国政治、经济、科技、教育等优势于一身的地位不相匹配。该文就中关村知识产权发展中存在的问题进行了剖析,并就提高中关村知识产权发展水平提出建议。
