The Experience of Gender Change in Public Sector Organizations

The state has a twofold relationship to gender change in society, through its overall steering capacity and through the gendered character of its constituent agencies. It is therefore important to understand the experience of gender change in state organizations. The findings from a study of gender relations in ten public‐sector worksites in New South Wales, Australia are presented. There is a widespread consciousness of gender change linked with new labour processes, restructuring and new patterns of management. These changes are uneven and limits to change are visible. Gender is recognized as an organizational problem in specific circumstances, most visibly where men’s resistance to change appears. A number of mechanisms limit the consciousness of gender as a problem. Several trends, including the current strength of neo‐liberalism, converge to make the gender‐neutral workplace the principal goal of gender reform in the public‐sector workplace. This, however, limits the state’s steering capacity in regard to societal gender relations.     

Collapsing the Boundaries? Fatherhood,Organization and Home‐Working

In the modern western world, the discursive construction of fatherhood and everyday fathering practices has been underpinned by the spatial separation of work from home, of public from private. However, increasing numbers of employees are now working from home and a disproportionate number of these are men with young children. This article draws on new empirical research to examine the implications for fathers and for organizations as home‐working disrupts earlier spatial configurations of fatherhood and fathering practices. The article concludes that as the spatial boundaries between home and work collapse, new accommodations between fatherhood/fathering and organization are emerging. However, these are underpinned by a traditional gender division of labour in the household. More broadly, these findings confirm the inadequacy of static distinctions between public and private, showing that while such distinctions are still used to mark space and time, this is relational, contingent and unstable.     

蒂布特模型启迪下的可流动公共产品供给

中国目前正处于城乡公共产品统筹供给的关键时期,研究符合中国国情的公共产品供给理论具有重要意义。蒂布特模型是关于公共产品供给机制的理论研究,其政策含义是政府要采取促进居民流动的方式来提高公共产品的配置效率。由于该模型所作假设的现实性较弱,其结论和应用有一定局限性。根据流动程度,可以把公共产品划分为可流动公共产品和不可流动公共产品两类,可以通过可流动公共产品的流动来提高公共产品的配置效率。中国目前在城乡可流动公共产品优化配置方面有较大发展空间。     

转型期民间投资及其法律规制的制度逻辑--一个关于中国经济法现实运作基础的经验考察

本文立足于已持续二十多年的中国市场化取向的渐进改革,借助发生在甘肃省古浪县时间跨度超过15年的农村"机井"投资纠纷司法个案,对其中牵涉到的农业生产基本设施(机井),及其所引发的公有产权(特别是集体产权)与私人产权之间因"产权交易"而展开的"博弈"的具体分析,揭示了中国社会经济转型期民间投资的真实和普遍语境--即始终存在于同公有产权和国家权力相互碰撞和纠缠的夹缝中.在此基础上,通过反思现有法学研究及司法审判在方法和思路方面的缺憾,对转型期民间投资法律规制的制度逻辑进行了探讨,并结合其他领域的民闻投资实践,对转型期中国经济法存在和发挥作用的现实基础进行了思考.     

公共部门信用管理:理论与实践

在公共管理中,公共部门信用是一种重要的资源,需要合理地开发和利用,加强管理.该文尝试提出公共部门信用管理这一概念,并且对公共部门信用管理的主要特征和效果体现进行初步的探讨:公共部门信用管理相对于私人部门信用管理,具有本质的公共性、主体的广泛性和内容的多样性特点;公共部门信用管理的效果,透过公共政策信用、公共服务的契约信用和公共管理的规则信用体现出来;公共部门应该通过倡导公共部门信用意识和意愿、提高公共部门信用能力、加强公共部门行为过程约束和强化、对公共部门行为效果的信用责任追究等来实施信用管理.     

Television and Violence in the Economy of Memory

The present paper aims to consider the cultural function of television as a technology for the creation of a public memory. The television system records past images, preserves them, and broadcasts various historical programs. A viewer owns the public memory jointly, through watching/consuming programs. However, the process of production and consumption of programs is linked with the exclusion of other historical memories from the public space. After all, the creation of public memories in depth is related to social power. Through the analysis in concrete terms of a series of programs of Project X and the second episode of the Nippon Hoso Kyokai (NHK; Japan Broadcasting Corporation) series, Special Edition: Judging War, the relationship between the organization of public memories and social power is explored. Project X depicts the challenges of engineers of middle standing who initiated new industrial and technological developments in the 1960s and 1970s. Special Edition: Judging War is based on coverage of the Women's International War Crimes Tribunal on Japan's Military Sexual Slavery. This program was subjected to revision on the eve of its broadcast. What forms of expression were eliminated? These two programs should help us define more clearly what the Japanese media selects for incorporation into the public memory.     

行政合同的基本特性

行政合同是行政主体为直接实现行政的目的或单纯为行政事务与他方订立的合同.在行政主体合同权利的限制、行政主体在合同中的特权、合同的瑕疵与救济方面,行政合同均存在有别于普通合同的特性.这些特性意味着行政合同具备自身存在的理论基础和实践价值.

“哲学意味”与“补史之阙”

传统上西方人为小说辩护的理由是它“更富于哲学意味” ,中国人的辩护理由是它“有可观之辞”。从文化传播的角度看 ,小说的功能正在补正统文化之缺 ,后一种理由更符合实际。文人大规模地介入小说活动 ,使小说成为沟通各种文化的公共领域。 2 0世纪以后 ,西方出现了将哲学“非中心化”的主张 ;从鲁迅开始 ,中国现代小说摆脱“历史癖” ,强化了批判精神。当代小说仍应发挥传统 ,沟通文人的批判意识和民众智慧 ,采取积极策略
