论意象与联想力、想象力之互动——以“多”、“二”、“一（0）”螺旋结构切入作考察

联想力与想象力是思维力的两大翅膀,藉以让思维力遨游于客观与主观时空,以通贯心、物,上撤其本、下撤其末,将真实世界、伦理世界与艺术世界融通为一,以呈现真、善、美的圆融境域.而意与象即相当于心与物,为人类思维活动的原动力,自然和联想力与想象力关系密切.大体说来,就在联想力与想象力的作用下,意象得以形成、表现、组织与统合;其中意象之形成、表现,关涉到偏于主观的"联想力与想象力"所形成之形象思维;意象之组织,关涉到偏于客观的"联想力与想象力"所形成之逻辑思维;而意象之统合,则关涉到合客观与主观为一的"联想力与想象力"所形成之综合思维.由此可知意象与联想力、想象力,在思维力的大力牵合下,不但三位一体,而且使它们形成"意象←→联想力、想象力"的"多"、"二"、"一(0)"螺旋结构.     

农业产业的竞争力:技术、组织和制度创新

加入WTO以后,我国农业国际竞争力的增强体现为着力推进技术、组织和制度创新。把高新技术融入传统农业促进技术创新;发展公司农业与农业公司以促进组织创新;建立合理、稳定的利益联结机制以促进制度创新。制度创新可以形成稳定高效的农业产业化价值链,促进公司农业的发展,技术创新则可以提升和延伸农业产业化价值链。组织创新是依托,技术创新是根本,制度创新是条件,三者相辅相成,相互促进。     

文化经济时代:中国文化产业的发展与管理

世界经济发展经过了一个文化与产业不断接近以至融合甚至部分重合的过程。文化产业的出现,标志着“文化经济”这一新的经济类型或者经济发展模式的诞生;“文化经济”应该是一种“人文化的知识经济,”即一种在世性与神性追求双赢的知识经济。作为世贸组织的成员,中国政府发展与管理文化产业,应该将自己放在全面的文化开放平台上,按照世贸规则调整和重构中国的交往理念、制度形态和法律文化,提高中国文化的核心竞争力;用竞争促发展的眼光和文化生态主义的思想范式充分发挥“后发现代化国家”的后发优势,为经济全球化下的中国文化建设与文化产业的健康发展提供强大的原动力。     

我国图书馆面临的新挑战

随着因特网在世界范围的迅速发展及中国加入(WTO)世界贸易组织,图书馆面临着新的挑战和机遇,因特网的迅猛发展使信息资源的全球化正在变成现实。面对自动化,网络化,数字化的挑战,必须转变观念,与时俱进,加快图书馆现代化建设的进程和服务方式的改变,才能适应信息时代的要求;中国加入WTO, 使我国面对世界。随着WTO组织对知识产权的保护,文献信息资源共建共享应成为高校图书馆的共识和对策。

A framework to study strategizing activities at the field level: The example of CSR rating agencies

This paper responds to recent calls to bridge strategy and organization research by combining Strategy-as-Practice and Neo-Institutional Theory through re-theorizing the notion of strategic actor. We problematize the notion of strategic actor at the field level, and rely on insights from management and organization studies and sociology to advance a theoretical framework that conceptualizes organizations as social actors at the field level. We demonstrate our theoretical framework by drawing on corporate social responsibility rating agencies. We see corporate social responsibility rating agencies as supra-individual, social actors that are predisposed to assume an active role in defining and revisiting structural parameters within the society through their purposeful, meaningful actions and interactions. Our main contribution is to the development of the Strategy-as-Practice literature, achieved by re-theorizing the notion of strategic actor at the field level. This contribution responds to the micro-isolationism critique, and proposes a new focus for Strategy-as Practice research.     

Examining the Nursing Home Physical Environment Through Policy-Driven Culture Change

A critical need exists to challenge approaches to nursing home care due to rigid organizational factors and hospital-like culture. It has been argued that resident care needs to move toward a person-centered approach by addressing the organizational, social, and physical environments in nursing home facilities, a process often known as culture change. In response to this need, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has created funding for pay for performance (P4P) nursing home incentive programs to allow nursing home providers to receive CMS reimbursements for culture change in the facilities. Through care staff interviews, site observations, and a document review, this qualitative study assesses the impact of a Midwestern state P4P incentive program in three participating nursing homes. Using an environment and behavior (E-B) policy orientation framework, this study examines culture change through a focus on policy, the physical environment, place attachment, and social and psychological processes in the study settings.     

Family involvement in the institutional eldercare context. Towards a new understanding

This article focuses on family involvement and its various patterns and expressions in the context of end-of-life care in a nursing home. Based on analyses from an ethnographic study carried out at a nursing home ward, the aim is to describe and analyze the conditions of aging and dying for the old residents, as well as effects on their visiting families and relatives. As in similar research findings, it became clear from the study that families continue to visit and contribute to the care of the old resident throughout the years, from the time of placement to their demise, but that this involvement might vary both in content and in extent. However, it was found that families' involvement (as well as their changing relationships and roles) is particularly shaped by the very process of dying and lingering aura of death on the ward. The analysis presented in the article evinces the difficult — and in many ways impossible — role of the family in the institutional end-of-life setting, and discloses the various patterns and manifestations of family involvement in this environment. Different meanings and implications of family involvement are discussed and highlighted.     

The Global Politics of Forced Labour

This article examines the politics of governing forced labour. It develops and applies an approach drawing on Marx’s conception of the historical formation of ‘free’ labour in the process of ‘primitive accumulation’ and Gramsci’s conception of the ‘relations of force’. Viewed through this lens, rather than representing discrete ontological categories, the boundary between ‘free’ and ‘forced’ labour is repositioned as largely a contested and ambivalent artefact of governance. The concept of the ‘political relations of force’ highlights the ways in which such constructions are shaped by complex intersections between a diversity of different social forces. This approach is subsequently applied in an analysis of an International Labour Organization project on dealing with ‘traditional slavery’ in Niger.
