Playing,Sitting Out,and Observing the Game: An Investigation of Faculty Members’ Perspectives on Political Behavior in Ethical Decision Making

Ethical dilemmas are inherently ambiguous, complex, and ill-defined. Additionally, these dilemmas involve multiple stakeholders. These characteristics may induce political behavior as a resolution tactic. Thus, the goal of the present effort was to investigate perspectives on politics among researchers in an ethical decision-making context. A qualitative analysis of interviews with university faculty members revealed that faculty members’ perspectives on political behavior in an ethical decision-making context fall into a number of categories, including positive, negative, and realistic views of political activity. The implications of these varying perspectives on ethical decision making are discussed.     

Infusing Research Integrity Principles and Practices into a Regional Master's Degree–Intensive University: A Case Study

The need for institutions of higher education to advance research and scholarly integrity across graduate degree programs involves a strong commitment from each institution to develop a comprehensive approach for promoting responsible conduct of research (RCR). In response to this need, one master's-intensive regional university implemented a three-tier model project (focusing, developing, and evaluating/sustaining) for infusing research integrity principles and practices while promoting RCR. Components of the model and implementation strategies are presented as a case study analysis. Implications of the model for promoting the RCR are projected relative to graduate programs focused on applied research.

从山东省德州学院看当代大学生的责任意识

本文通过对山建省德州学院521名在校大学生的问卷调查,对当前大学生责任意识发展的现状、存在的问题与成因进行了探讨。通过调查发现,当前大学生责任意识的整体发展是健康的,但是也存在瞄自我为中心、效能低下、知情行不一致等诸多问题,因此,改变旧有的、自在的培养方式,倡导主体性、生活化的培养思路是解决现有问题的根本出路。     

社会管理创新过程中的农村社区与基层责任政府建设

农村社区是伴随着新公共管理学兴起的一种主要社会管理方式,而我国农村独特的"内在熟人社会"发展模式,决定了当前在加强社会管理创新时期农村和谐社区建设的必然性。同时,在政府社会管理转型时期,政府主导依然是推进农村和谐社区建设的主要模式,因此,政府责任体系建设也是必然的选择。     

唐代酒令与令词

酒令是唐代酒筵间十分常见的一种有规则的游戏活动。盛唐以后,酒令普遍采用了曲子歌舞的形式,因此,作为酒令节目的酒令著辞大量涌现。酒令著辞的创作和演唱表现为依调撰辞与依曲唱辞,从而直接推动了按谱填词、以词合乐的小令创作,并孕育了令词。所以,唐五代小令词体在曲体形态上带有不少酒令著辞的痕迹。     

Decision Making in Multiple Value Perspectives

The paper presents an operationalised model for responsible decision making in corporate context. The starting point is Kenneth E. Goodpaster's conception of moral responsibility. Basic empirical findings of decision psychology are used to arrive at a robust model of making responsible decisions. In the proposed model decision alternatives are simultaneously evaluated from different value perspectives. Responsible decision making is defined as finding the least worst alternative in the multidimensional decision space of deontological, goal-achievement, and stakeholder values. Some character traits of the responsible decision maker are also provided. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Supply Chain Models with Mutual Commitments and Implications for Social Responsibility

In today's increasingly globalized environment, more and more companies recognize the mutual dependence of supply chain partners in value creation. When making business decisions, they take into consideration their partners’ bottom line profitability, especially in emerging markets. The question is, is this kind of practice sustainable? This study makes an attempt to formalize this issue by examining a stylized two‐party supply chain model in which each player maximizes its own profit while making a certain commitment to its partner. We compare five different games between the two supply‐chain partners, which reflect different power positions of the players and different levels of commitment. We identify conditions under which both players are better off with mutual commitments than without, a situation we call win–win. We show that win–win can be achieved if and only if the mutual commitments are comparable. Thus, the recognition of mutual dependence of the supply chain members needs to be translated into reciprocal concerns. In addition, different players’ commitments play different roles but together they have a similar effect as a profit sharing contract. Finally, we discuss the implications of our findings in the context of socially responsible operations. In particular, our analyses show that it is possible to care about the supply chain partners’ bottom line without sacrificing one's own profitability, and our models can be used as a tool to determine the commitment levels by evaluating the predicted outcome.
