When the Export of Social Problems Is No Longer Possible: Immigration Policies and Unemployment in Switzerland

Throughout the twentieth century, Switzerland has been one of the OECD countries with the highest proportion of immigrants in its population. The aim of this article is to show how institutional factors have shaped the opportunities for change in immigration and immigrant‐employment‐related policies there in the 1990s. Whereas unemployment had remained low in the 1970s and 1980s, there was a marked increase at the beginning of the 1990s. Existing migration policies were considered a central cause of this increase, since the great majority of foreigners who had come and settled in Switzerland in the periods of economic expansion were low‐skilled, and were now over‐represented among the unemployed. The reforms undertaken in the field of immigration and integration policy to respond to these new problems have been determined by specific institutional factors: direct democracy, a defensive migration regime, the development of immigrant rights and the weak autonomy of the central state. These factors account to a large extent for the limited scope and specific pathways of policy reforms in these two domains.

清代桂籍儒官陈继昌政见探析

清代广西临桂横山陈氏家族是当时声名显赫的官宦学术家族。陈宏谋为雍乾时著名大学士和理学名家,其玄孙陈继昌为中国封建社会史上的最后一位“三元及第”的著名士子和清官。文章分析陈继昌的乡试、殿试文章,认为察贤任能、天人和谐、守创结合、君臣尽职、借古鉴今、盛极必衰、无为而治、立教为先是陈继昌的主要政治思想。陈继昌的思想和生平,反映了嘉道年间清代由盛转衰的过程和这位爱国学者对治国安邦的关切,对当今也有一定的借鉴意义。

试析中国诗性智慧语境下的《镜花缘》

在理性的语境下解读充满浪漫主义色彩的<镜化缘>,一方面扭曲了固有的鲜活灵动的审美旨趣,另一方面遮蔽了艺术思维与人类思维的血脉渊源.因此,只有把<镜化缘>放到中国诗性智慧的独特语境下,才能使文本凸显中国诗性文化特有的生命一体化的哲学维度以及女性崇拜的原形题旨.     

古典诗学原则：阅读教学的新视点

古典诗学原则作为中国古典美学的核心成分,是中华民族重要而又富有魅力的精神文化。它的诸多范畴以及重境界、重性情、重风骨、重体悟、重涵咏、重生成等基本精神,应当成为中学语文教学的重要资源。这样一种古代与当代的契合,是文化的契合、资源的契合、发展的契合、育人的契合,所以,值得我们充分重视。本文主要探讨古典诗学原则在阅读教学中的点化作用。     

社会史论战的先声——《新生命》杂志对中国社会结构的探讨

20世纪20年代末30年代初,《新生命》杂志作者群体围绕着中国社会结构进行过一场讨论,可以视之为其后中国社会史论战的先导。这次讨论最大的特点,是关注中国社会及其社会史的特殊性,而不是共同性;所用的方法是社会学的方法,包括马克思主义的社会学。在探讨中国社会结构问题时,《新生命》杂志是一份既非反对唯物史观,也不是完全意义上坚持唯物史观的刊物。     

More (new) products,more problems? A systems perspective on increased capability deployment and organizational errors

The capabilities-based view postulates that organizational capabilities are a key driver of competitive advantage. However, while increasing the pace of deploying organizational capabilities, such as new product development (NPD), may enable alignment with changing environments, it may also have unintended consequences. In this study, we advance theory on these unintended consequences by investigating how the increased deployment of NPD capability leads to organizational errors. Borrowing from organizational research employing systems theory, we argue that an increase in NPD deployment may increase the likelihood of routine discoordination and, thus, the incidence of intra-firm and interfirm errors. However, we also proffer that firms can mitigate errors from increases in NPD capability deployment by engaging in distinct internal and external activities that enable the accumulation of knowledge on how to coordinate systemic change. We distinguish between internal and external errors, demonstrating that in the context of increased NPD deployments, internal voluntary investigations ameliorate internal manufacturing errors, while supplier alliances mitigate outsourced component errors. We find support for our predictions using data from new product introductions and recalls in the U.S. automotive industry. This study sheds light on the tension inherent to accelerating the deployment of patterned organizational activities and suggests that the outcomes of deploying an organizational capability are best viewed holistically within the milieu of organizational systems the capability spans.
