Help or hype: Symbolic or behavioral communication during Hurricane Katrina

Public relations professionals increasingly rely on the World Wide Web to communicate with their publics on a variety of issues, including the corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts the organization has undertaken. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, there is an opportunity to discover how the Best 100 Global Brands used their corporate websites and the power of their brand equity to help the victims of the disaster, as well as to communicate their own CSR efforts. Results show that 51% of these Top 100 firms had messages on their homepages about Hurricane Katrina, and 86% of those firms made donations totaling $105,000,000. The remaining 14% of firms exhibited symbolic communication only, with links to philanthropic organizations aiding rescue efforts.     

An analysis of other countries’ international public relations in the U.S.

The purpose of this study was to examine the various aspects of international public relations by other countries in the U.S. Based on the Foreign Agency Registration Act (FARA) report in 2002, this study analyzed client, activity types, purpose of activity, and key U.S. partners for activity. This study found that (1) business organizations and central governments were major clients of international public relations in the U.S., (2) meeting with governmental officials and congressional leaders was the primary type of activity followed by information dissemination, and (3) economic purpose led by trade promotion was the primary motive for these activities.     

Qualified privilege: A defense for the public relations function

Technology continues to challenge the public relations practitioner to find ways to inform key constituents. The new technology has given rise to the “new journalism” that includes a declining traditional media and exploding internet media filled with websites and bloggers. The question posed by this research asks: Does the public relations practitioner inherit the same protection offered by “qualified privilege” that is most often associated with the traditional “press” or “reporter?” The research lays a foundation with an examination of defamation and the defense of qualified privilege. The research concludes that if information gathered by the public relations practitioner meets the “intent” and “content” tests, the information qualifies as news. Passing the “news” test, the defense of “qualified privilege” also attaches to the public relations practitioner.     

北京市公交系统两种运行模式的比较研究

本文认为，与北京市目前的公交系统运行模式相比，双层“网络＋环形”的运行模式是一种新型高效、有可持续发展功能的公交系统运行模式。主要表现在：贯通型公交网络与环形的结合既能提高公交的机动性，又能提高其可迭性；单线路公交车安排和“枢纽一枢纽”型综合换乘方式都比旧的模式更能提高公交系统的运行效率。

政府在增加农村公共产品供给中的职责定位

农村公共产品具有一般公共产品的特征,政府有责任、有义务为广大农民提供基本而有保障的公共产品。长期以来我国采用城乡分割的二元化的公共产品供给体制,政府在农村公共产品的提供上都没有发挥应有的职能,致使农村公共产品严重不足。在建设社会主义新农村的背景下,增加农村公共产品的供给成为当务之急。分析了政府在增加农村公共产品供给中应承担的主导作用、监管职责、统筹规划职能、扶持职责和法律保障职责。     

"民官比"不是影响政治体制改革的重要因素

在政治体制改革中,公务员或国家干部人数的多少并不是一个关键因素,重要的是必须把政府的社会定位(包括角色、权力和责任)划分清楚。与世界各国相比较,我国197.69∶1(或116.27∶1)的“民官比”并不高,因此,今后的政治体制改革不需要再把精力集中在“精简”上,而应按邓小平的部署,首先把党政分开和权力下放的工作做好。毕竟“小政府”是指“政府权力受限制”,而非“人数更少”;“大社会”是指“社会权利更广泛”,而非“人数更多”。
