Black men teaching: toward a theory of social isolation in organizations

ABSTRACT

While there continues to be increasing research about Black male teachers’ school-based experiences, there is less empirical evidence on the variation in these experiences for this subgroup. Drawing on Kanter’s Theory of Numbers and Group Composition, the researcher used the qualitative method to compare the perceptions of Black male teachers in schools that employ just one Black male teacher versus schools with larger numbers of Black male teachers. A theory of social isolation in organizations is proposed to explain differences in the variation of school-based experiences for Black male teachers. When compared to Black men in schools with larger percentages of Black male teachers on the faculty, those Black men who were the only Black male teachers on their faculty were more likely to describe feeling socially isolated and disconnected from their colleagues.     

后现代语境下的"写文化"与"写文化之后"

80年代 ,人类学曾经出现了一个引人注目的“写文化”大论争 ,其代表就是《写文化 :民族志的诗学和政治学》与《作为文化批评的人类学 :一个人文学科的实验时代》。其核心问题就是民族志写作中的修辞、叙事的政治和策略等 ,对传统民族志提出反思和挑战。之后 ,一些人类学家鉴于“写文化”基本只是提出问题 ,却没有提供答案 ,于 1998年结集出版了《写文化之后 :当代人类学的认识论和实践》 ,试图提出一些可能的方案。反观“写文化”和“写文化之后” ,我们可以看到一些对人类学理论和实践发展具有深刻意义的方面。     

制度环境、风险感知对供应链网络治理模式选择的影响研究

本文以新制度理论与交易成本理论进行对话,从合法性视角构建中国情境下制度环境、风险感知与供应链网络治理模式选择之间影响机理的理论模型。通过问卷调查的方式收集117份有效问卷,并采用结构方程模型方法实证检验制度环境、风险感知对供应链网络治理模式的"形塑"作用。研究结果表明,制度环境是影响供应链网络治理模式选择的重要因素,强制制度对供应链网络治理模式选择具有显著影响,规范制度的影响作用不显著。在供应链网络治理模式选择过程中关系风险感知具有完全中介作用,而绩效风险感知具有部分中介作用。     

试探《论语》语境恢复法

读书分两种目的,或为修身（做人）而读书,或为治学（立业）而读书,相应有两种读法：为修身而读书当重在一个“悟”字,为治学而读书则当重在一个“懂”字。《论语》在记载、誊写、编纂各个环节造成了语境缺失,使读“懂”《论语》变得很困难,要读懂《论语》就要尽可能恢复《论语》的语境。其基本做法,就是根据《论语》章中所透露的信息（诸如人物、事件、时间、地点等）来追寻某言某事得以发生的场景,以追溯其言语背景。     

功能语境视域的《论语》歧义句语内翻译模式研究

语内翻译是典籍翻译过程中一个重要步骤,其对典籍歧义句的处理直接影响最终的翻译质量。在功能语境理论框架内,采用宏观功能语境分析和自下而上的具体分析相结合的方法,以《论语·学而篇》第8章“学则不固”的“固”字为例,对《论语》歧义句语内翻译进行研究,探讨可操作的翻译模式。研究发现在歧义句语内翻译过程中进行语境还原,有助消除词汇歧义;研究认为“学则不固”的“固”字应作“固陋”解译。

论电子场景下现代科学教育的重塑

历史上的科学教育经历了由“专才教育”向“通识教育”再到“通才教育”转变的过程。“通才教育”在现代社会发挥着重要的人才培养功能,但 IT(电子信息)技术在现代科学教育中所形成的特定“电子场景”使得科学教育致力于追求普遍显性知识的“通识教育”,一定程度上缺失了隐性意会知识的养成,而后者是现代“通才教育”所必需的。现代科学教育应该重塑“通才教育”,其本质是一种显性知识与隐性知识相结合的 STS 教育。     

新传媒语境下电视新闻节目的时空观

信息传播技术革命在社会的方方面面产生了深刻的影响,最为突出的表现就是公众时空观的变化,这构成了学术界和业界一直关注的新传媒生态的根本话题。以电视新闻节目为研究的具体对象,从新媒介语境下时空观的变化入手,并以电视新闻报道节目的实践为参考,从理论而后实践的维度系统地考察了新传媒语境下时空观对电视新闻节目产生的影响。     

Bridging the gap between social work practice and community based welfare agencies

This article argues that social work in the UK needs to renegotiate its relationship with community welfare agencies. It begins by examining what we mean by local community and how welfare needs reflect complex non-linear dynamics unique to the local circumstances. It is argued that these are not always recognised in centralised policy agendas. The article broadly draws a parallel between policy issues for the European Community and for the national state. The drive for both is towards uniformity, which potentially fails to acknowledge the unique circumstances at both the national level between nations and the local level between communities.

The focus of the analysis is the lack of engagement with the subtleties of the local within the arena of social work education and practice. With the opportunity presented by the introduction of a new social work degree in the UK, the authors describe how a social work programme in Liverpool undertook a piece of research with the aim of creating an appropriate place for community welfare agencies in practice placements, the academic curriculum and, ultimately, with the next generation of social work practitioners. Eight welfare agencies within the proximity of Liverpool University, an area known as Toxteth, agreed to participate in the research to investigate what kind of placement module would enable local welfare agencies to engage meaningfully in the social work degree. Out of this process emerged a model for research based curriculum development involving local community agencies and academic institutions. More specifically for Liverpool, it placed the notion of social work's relationship with local community welfare at the heart of professional development for qualifying social workers, paving the way in this region of England for closer links between welfare agencies associated with civil society and professional social workers.
