We study the general class of two-player public-policy contests and specify the asymmetry condition under which a more restrained government intervention that reduces the contestants’ prizes has the “perverse” effect of increasing their aggregate lobbying efforts.

China’s previous contract laws had many contradictions and failed to meet the needs of China’s developing market economy.
Although some problems still need to be dealt with, the unified contract law is more advanced, systematic and plays an important
role in fostering and encouraging transactions.

The Dutch are the world’s leaders in the flower business even though they seem to lack comparative advantage in the traditional
sense. Comparative advantages played a role in the history of the Dutch flower cluster and they still have a role today. Based
on a critic of Porter’s theories, the investigation suggests that the exploitation of comparative advantages is allowed only
to those firms and clusters that already possess a competitive advantage, based on technology, logistics infrastructure, innovation
and human skills. So that comparative advantages and competitive advantages join in a sort of helix process based on social
innovation and collective learning.

Top-Down Civic Projects Are Not Grassroots Associations: How The Differences Matter in Everyday Life
Nina Eliasoph 《Voluntas: International Journal of Voluntary and Nonprofit Organizations》2009,20(3):291-308
Research on civic associations blurs an important distinction between the unfunded, informal, ongoing associations that theorists
like de Tocqueville described versus current participatory democracy projects that are funded by the state and large nongovernmental
organizations, are open to all, and are usually short-term. Based on a long-term ethnography of youth programs in the United
States, this paper shows that entities like these, which participants and researchers alike often called “volunteer” or “civic”
groups, operate very differently from traditional civic groups. The ethnography systematically details prevalent tensions
that actors face when they try to cultivate the civic spirit in these increasingly typical organizations.

This study explores the imagined interactions college students have with their parents about money and credit, their attitudes
toward credit and money, the ways they say their parents deal with financial decisions, and the communication coalitions regarding
finances they perceive existing within their family. Students’ imagined interaction pleasantness is greatest when parents
jointly form a plan for paying off credit card debt and lowest when parents argue. When family coalitions exist, students
report more frequent imagined interactions. Imagined interaction frequency and pleasantness are related to credit and money
attitudes.

In the 1970s, as children of Holocaust survivors reached adulthood, many began to excavate, piece together, and re-fashion
their fractured family histories. This movement achieved momentum in the 1980s and 1990s, as the so-called “second generation”
moved into middle age. Drawing from data gleaned from participant observation on a listserv for children of survivors and
from interviews, I argue that those who engage in post-Holocaust genealogy are searching for coherent narratives that place
their own origin in the context of the families into which they were born. By seeking, borrowing from and selectively appropriating
traces of the past, they are using them as raw material in the production of new stories about the past and, by implication,
the present.

The inverse plurality rule—an axiomatization 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Under the ‘inverse plurality rule’, voters specify only their least preferred alternative. Our first result establishes that
this rule is the only scoring rule that satisfies the minimal veto condition (MV). We then prove that the inverse plurality
rule is characterized by MV and the four well known conditions that characterize scoring rules; namely, Anonymity (A), Neutrality
(N), Reinforcement (RE) and Continuity (CO). Our new characterization result is related to the characterizations of approval
voting and of the widely used plurality rule. We finally show how the axiomatization of the inverse plurality rule can be
extended to the axiomatization of elementary scoring rules (vote for t-alternatives scoring rules).
We are indebted to two anonymous referees for their most useful comments.

This paper concerns the author’s countertransference reflections on her work with a gay adolescent who identifies with powerfully
destructive internal objects, including Hitler and the Monster. The author describes her countertransference inquiry through
which she experiences her own potential destructiveness in order to help accommodate her adolescent patient’s rejected and
disowned self states.

The legal transitions of private ownership from being admitted limitedly to being protected equally with public ownership,
and of the peasants’ right on rural lands from a contractual right to the right in rem, are almost the same process of social reform. And in the interaction of social development and legislation, the law has
taken on an increasing role in social transition.

This paper provides insight into the wage gap between lesbians and heterosexual women. Using data from the 2000 Decennial
Census, we find a lesbian premium that equals approximately 10% for women without a bachelor’s degree, and is nearly non-existent
for women with higher levels of education. These findings are consistent with proposition that the gap between lesbians’ and
heterosexual women’s commitment to the labor market narrows at higher levels of education. We also find that controls for
industry and occupation exert only a small effect on the gap between lesbian and heterosexual women’s wages.

This paper uses the theoretical lens of object relations and takes the position that the paranoid-schizoid position and the
related mechanism of projective identification—cornerstone pathology found in the phenomenon of fascism and totalitarianism—are
not atypical, but rather live within the seemingly normal individual. Using Rwanda as a case example, the author illustrates
the continuum of beliefs and actions that can result in genocide, and then describes some of the treatment considerations
facing the clinician dealing with victims of genocide.

This paper expands on the ideas presented by Barth’s article on hidden eating disorders. The topic of eating disorders continues
to be an important focus of clinical work. Applying constructs related to the experience of shame, I explore the way that
feelings of shame may impact an exploration of eating disorders by the patient and clinician.

Gendered definitions of care influence breast cancer survivors’ coping strategies, sense of entitlement to care, and ultimately
their capacity to receive care. Using qualitative data from 60 intensive interviews, this study examines how gendered definitions
of care influence women’s experiences as care-receivers. Findings indicate that negotiating gender boundaries to care for
the self is both empowering and stigmatizing. Women with breast cancer are required to break gender norms that stress compliance,
nurturing, and putting the needs of others first to prioritize their own needs for care. Concurrently, they take on additional
nurturing roles to provide support to other women with breast cancer, relinquishing to some degree the individualistic approach
to life they found necessary to cope with their illness in the first place.

It is a stylized fact that marriage formation involves positive assortative matching on education. We also find this in the
case of immigrants, even when they tend to “import” their spouses and potentially trade off education for other favorable
characteristics. For Pakistanis, we find positive compensating differentials in terms of high education to youth having adopted
host country norms, when marrying a marriage migrant. This indicates that Pakistani marriage migrants pay a premium to be
able to marry and live in Denmark. For Turks, individuals having source country norms pay a premium in order to import a partner,
indicating that unspoiled traditional norms are traded off for education.

Plurality rule is mostly criticized from being capable of choosing an alternative considered as worst by a strict majority.
This paper considers elections in which the agenda consists of potential candidates strategically choosing whether or not
to enter the election. In this context, we examine the ability of scoring rules to fulfil the Condorcet criterion. We show
for the case of three potential candidates that Plurality rule is the only scoring rule that satisfies a version of the Condorcet
criterion in two cases: 1) when preferences are single-peaked and, 2) when preferences are single-dipped.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) has not traditionally utilized “use of self” to describe the clinician’s role in counseling
but much attention has been given to the importance of the therapeutic relationship and the components necessary and appropriate
for a strong working alliance. The CBT approach is discussed within the framework of previously articulated five uses of selves.
A case example is presented.

By applying the non-parametric Malmquist Productivity Index (MPI) method, this paper attempts to investigate the sources of
productivity changes of China’s State Owned Commercial Banks (SOCBs) and Joint Stock Commercial Banks (JSCBs) during the period
2000–2005. The empirical findings suggest that the China banking sector has exhibited productivity progress attributed to
the increase in efficiency. The empirical findings suggest that the SOCBs and the JSCBs have exhibited productivity progress
of 0.2 and 1.3%, respectively.

Transference enactments play a central role in clinical supervision regardless of whether supervisors or supervisees consciously
recognize or acknowledge their presence. Supervisors who do recognize enactments better understand the core issues that interfere
with supervisees’ capacity to relate therapeutically to patients. Supervisory process is markedly enhanced when supervisors
consciously study manifestations of transference within the supervisory relationship and respond to them correctively. Corrective
interventions, whether purposeful or unintentional, expand supervisees’ relational and self-reflective capacities.

The article describes the policy-making structure which governs the reform of justice in Afghanistan. It is characterized
by an evolution from a bilateral to a multilateral approach, aimed at increasing the Afghan ownership. However, observing
the system ‘from within’, it seems currently ruled by a mixed regime, being still deeply influenced by external inputs. As
a consequence, the final outcome of the process remains uncertain.

Using data collected from surveys conducted in 1990 and 2000, we examine changes in the administrative practices of US-based
national and international unions. We examine the hiring, human resource, financial, strategic planning, and organizational
practices and how they have changed over time. We find that unions are changing their staff hiring practices in ways that
contribute to workforce professionalization and that unions are moving toward more formal human resource policies and more
systematic financial and strategic planning practices. These developments appear to be a reaction to the unions’ changing
operating environment and reflect the pressure on union leaders to make effective use of their declining resources.
