Identity work in female‐led creative businesses

This study explores the identity work carried out by three female owner‐managers in creative industry businesses, identified in Government reports as a discriminatory industrial sector for women in the UK. Through the development of narratives by the owners and other participants, observation of practice and review of online and offline materials, three cases emerged. These showed overlapping, different identities developed and performed through identity work. Each presented rational and logical persona as business leaders despite observation showing extensive use of intuition and gut feeling in both creative and entrepreneurial aspects of the business. Intuition and gut feeling were seen as inappropriate at work as they belonged to the home sphere, emotionally based and therefore automatically unreliable. While occupying male stereotypes and avoiding the female realm of emotion at work, these women expressed femininity through their emphasis on the maternal, ‘being a good mother' as a desired ideal being embedded in work as well as home practice.     

Catch-up as a Survival Strategy in the Solar Power Industry

We evaluate the strategies of the emerging market firms in the context of nascent industries. We use the Indian solar power industry as the empirical setting, against the backdrop of the evolution of the global industry, While in traditional industries emerging market firms learn from advanced economy multinational enterprises (MNEs) and slowly upgrade their capabilities, in the intensely competitive environment of nascent innovative industries, emerging market firms are exposed to global competition in their home market right from the early years. This shortens their catch-up clock. As a result, their long-term survival depends on their ability to catch-up fast, both in output and innovation capabilities. In the solar power industry, we find that innovations stem, in the main, from advanced economy firms. Further, Chinese firms are beginning to move from cost-based imitation to innovation. In contrast, with a few key exceptions, most firms in the Indian solar industry remain locked within a narrow niche of downstream site-based installation. Their operations are opportunistic, short term, and without specific catch-up goals, a scenario that does not bode well for the industry's future in India.     

企业资源配置战略与盈余持续性

盈余持续性是盈余质量的重要特征。较高的盈余持续性预示着企业的盈余质量较高,在一定程度上表明企业的经营状况平稳并具有良好的管理水平,有利于企业降低经营风险、提升公司价值。近年来,盈余持续性已经成为资本市场研究领域的一个热点问题。以我国A股市场2007—2017年非金融类上市公司为样本,对企业资源配置战略与盈余持续性之间的关系进行了实证研究。研究结果表明,经营主导型公司的盈余持续性要显著强于投资主导型公司;进一步区分具体的盈余构成后发现,经营主导型公司核心利润的持续性显著强于投资主导型公司,但其投资收益的持续性显著弱于投资主导型公司。上述结论表明,盈余及其构成的持续性均会受到公司资源配置战略的影响。相关研究结论既为公司资源配置战略影响盈余特征提供了经验证据,又对外部利益相关者透过战略本质看清会计信息的内在价值具有一定的启示作用。     

关于高校中层副职干部几个基本问题的思考

高校中层副职干部具有高校干部、中层干部和副职干部的群体特征，应当具备相应的政治、思想、道德、业务、能力和身体等方面的基本素质。高校应当按照现行干部配置规制，结合内部管理体制和工作机制任用干部。高校中层副职干部的日常活动涉及到社会、学校、家庭等多个层面，必须妥善处理好各种人事关系。     

地方党政主要领导职位空缺的现状、成因及对策

地方党政主要领导职位空缺是指在领导干部选任和调配过程中，由于诸多常规或非常规原因导致某一地区的党委或政府部门主要领导职位在较长时间内空缺，进而直接或间接影响地方党政工作的特殊现状，广泛存在于各级、各地党政部门。由于我国有关干部职位空缺的制度建设和管理规范尚不完善，地方党政主要领导职位空缺产生一些消极影响，主要表现为不利于地方党政机关运行，存在腐败风险，触发舆论风险等。在充分认识空缺危害性的基础上，深入分析造成职位空缺的干部调配因素、选任导向变革因素以及其他非常规因素等，从完善遴选机制、衔接制度、保障机制、舆论生态治理、干部教育等五个方面切实解决地方党政主要领导职位空缺带来的一系列问题。     

At the intersection of globalization and ‘civilizational originality’: cultural production in Putin’s Russia

ABSTRACT

This special issue originates from a transnational collaboration of scholars in philology, comparative literature, social theory, sociology, anthropology, ethnography, and media studies. The collection strives to advance a research agenda built on the nexus of three intellectual and academic domains: post-Soviet ‘Russian cultural studies’, the research paradigm put forward by Cultural Studies, as well as empirical methods developed in sociology. The collection illustrates the importance of expanding the experience of Cultural Studies beyond its established spheres of national investigation, while it also speaks to the necessity to re-evaluate the hegemony of the English-language academic and cultural production on the global scale. The collection offers insights into the gamut of cultural practices and institutional environments in which Russian cultural production happens today. It shows how cultural industries and institutions in Russia are integrated into the global marketplace and transnational communities, while they also draw on and contribute to local lives and experiences by trying to create an autonomous space for symbolic production at personal and collective levels. Through diverse topics, the issue sheds light on the agency, i.e. practitioners and participants, creators and consumers, of Russian cultural production and the neoliberal practices implemented on creative work and cultural administration in Russia today. The Introduction outlines the development of academic studies on Russian cultural practices since 1991; describes main political developments shaping the cultural field in Putin’s Russia; and, finally, identifies the Cultural Studies debates the editors of the collection find most productive for investigations of Russia, i.e. the instrumentalization of culture and culture as resource. Relocated in an analysis of a post-socialist society, these conceptualisations seem increasingly problematic in a situation where local and federal policies governing cultural and creative work focus simultaneously on marketization and on nationalism as the main tools of legitimizing the federal government.     

战略性新兴产业创新能力影响因素研究综述

从战略性新兴产业的特征入手, 对战略性新兴产业创新能力影响因素的相关文献进行综述。战略性新兴产业创新能力的影响因素主要包括知识产权能力、产业集群、金融支持、政府补助、产业政策与技术创新六大方面,现有文献主要围绕这六个方面进行相关研究。现有研究主要采用假设检验、实证分析、构建模型等研究方法与评估体系,而比较研究是战略性新兴产业创新能力研究中的重要内容。学界对战略性新兴产业的研究数量较多,但大多数只是宏观地探讨战略性新兴产业的发展及某些影响因素。由于战略性新兴产业包含不同行业,各个产业的特性存在差异,对于具体某一个战略性新兴产业的发展还需要进行更广泛更深入的研究;同时,技术、政策以及融资环境等某一因素对战略性新兴产业的影响研究慢慢增多,但是对不同因素带来的交叉影响研究还有待深入。     

政府R&D补贴、产权性质与实质性创新绩效 ——基于中国高技术产业的经验数据

以我国高技术产业为样本,采用面板门槛效应模型,实证检验了政府R&D补贴、产权性质与企业实质性创新绩效之间的关系。结果表明,高强度补贴会显著降低政府R&D补贴的正向作用;民营经济比重的上升则有助于政府R&D补贴作用的充分发挥。进一步研究发现,2000—2018年,仅2005、2011和2013等三个年份的补贴强度过高,2007年以后,民营经济的发展均处于合理区间。分区域来看,补贴强度过高的省份多达12个,且大多数位于中部和西部地区;民营经济比重过低的省份有7个,且大多数位于西部地区;补贴强度和民营经济均处于合理区间的有北京、天津、河北等14个省份,而两者均处于不合理区间的有山西、江西、湖北等5个省份。因此,合理设置补贴额度、充分发挥民营经济优势,是真正发挥政府R&D补贴作用、实现高技术产业创新发展的关键所在。     

论中国共产党党组制度的逻辑展开

中国共产党党组制度是党的领导制度体系的重要组成部分,也是推动国家治理体系和治理能力现代化的制度力量。党组是党对非党组织实施领导的重要载体,通过党组的整合与汲取,实现党的集中统一领导。党组在中国特色的党政“条块治理结构”中,实现了“集中力量办大事”的制度优势,也承载着打破官僚主义的希冀。党组是正确处理党政关系、实现依法执政的组织形式,将党的领导行为转化为执政行为,从而实现坚持党的领导、人民当家作主和依法治国的有机统一。     

网络生态场域中高校意识形态工作的引领路径

在移动互联发展与“网生一代”成长同构背景下,如何契合网络生态场域下认同机理、传播方式,正是新时代高校意识形态的新挑战。要契合网络生态场域的知识性要素、价值要素、实践要素和操作要素,需要话语体系的重构、传播阵地的整合、人才队伍立体化和管理体制的效能提升,这样才能发挥对大学生意识形态的引领和聚合作用。
