Download or read book Organizing China written by Harry Harding and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1981-06-01 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the establishment of the People's Republic in 1949, Chinese Communist leaders have constructed an administrative apparatus that has exercised broader and tighter control over Chinese society than any previous government in the country's history. This is a history of the development of Chinese organizational policy - a topic of constant concern and often strident debate - from 1949 to the death of Mao Tse-tung in 1976. The author argues that Chinese organizational policy has been controversial because of the complexity of administrative problems, the effects of policy changes on the distribution of power and status, and the philosophical dilemma of whether the efficiency of modern bureaucracy outweighs its social and political costs. He also shows how extreme approaches, such as demands during the Cultural Revolution that bureaucracy be destroyed altogether or proposals during the 1950s that the bureaucracy be rationalized, have been repeatedly rejected in favor of a policy more in keeping with much of Chinese tradition: to recruit officials on the basis of their political views, subject them to ideological indoctrination, and rely on mass campaigns to implement Party policy.
Book Synopsis Organizing Rural China — Rural China Organizing by : Ane Bislev
Download or read book Organizing Rural China — Rural China Organizing written by Ane Bislev and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012-04-05 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the early 1980s China embarked on what can be seen as one of the world’s largest social experiments ever. Decollectivization meant much more than the reorganization of agricultural production into family based farming. It signalled significant changes to rural social relations, when privatization, marketization and increased geographical mobility started tearing apart the economic and social institutions that had structured collective village life under Mao. The focus of this book is on how rural society has been reorganized in the 21st century. The first chapters outline the basic organizational structure of rural China and can be used as an introduction to the topic in a classroom setting. They show how the state and its social scientists draw up plans to overcome the perceived lack of rural social organization, and discuss the often problem-ridden implementation of their ideas. The second section presents case studies of institutions that organize key aspects of rural life: Boarding schools where rural children learn to accept organizational hierarchies; lineage organizations carving out new roles for themselves; “dragonhead enterprises” expected to organize agricultural production and support rural development, and several others. The book is of theoretical interest because of its focus on the re-embedding, or reintegration, of individuals into new types of collectivities, which are less predetermined by tradition and habit and more a matter of, at least perceived, individual choice. Most chapters are based on extensive fieldwork and contain vivid examples from daily life, which will make the book attractive to anyone who wants to understand how Chinese villagers experience the extraordinary social changes they are going through.
Book Synopsis Chinese Women Organizing by : Ping-Chun Hsiung
Download or read book Chinese Women Organizing written by Ping-Chun Hsiung and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-05-26 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the process of helping women to help themselves, female activists have assumed a decisive role in negotiating social and political transformations in Chinese society. This is the first book that describes and analyzes the new phase of women's organizing in China, which started in the 1980s, and remains a vital force to the present day. The political and social changes taking place in contemporary Chinese society have, surprisingly, received scant attention. This volume enriches our understanding of the working of grassroots democracy in China by exploring women's popular organizing activities and their interaction with party-state institutions. By subjecting these activities to both empirical enquiry and theoretical scrutiny, a rigorous analysis of the exchange, dialogue, negotiation and transformation among and within three groups of political actors - popular women's groups, religious groups and the All China Women's Federation - is concisely presented to the reader. This book will be of tremendous interest to students of Chinese Studies, Political Science and Gender Studies alike.
Book Synopsis Entering China - Which aspects should a transnational organization consider when entering the Chinese market by : Simon Hecker
Download or read book Entering China - Which aspects should a transnational organization consider when entering the Chinese market written by Simon Hecker and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2011-10-21 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2008 in the subject Economics - International Economic Relations, grade: 1.2, Fontys University of Applied Sciences Venlo, language: English, abstract: Globalization presents risk and opportunities today and in the future. Transnational Organizations (TNOs) were the beneficiaries of the globalization; they expanded their activities aboard, created an international mentality and adapted their strategies for substantial growths. Many domestic markets of TNOs are already saturated and through the process of expanding abroad TNOs have been looking for new markets with a high growth potential. Nowadays, China represents a promising target for nearly every TNO. However, many TNOs fail to enter the Chinese market successfully or are not able to capitalize their potential. The purpose of this report is to conclude why China is attractive for TNOs, what the specific risks and challenges are, when operating in the Chinese market and on which aspects a TNO should focus when entering China. In order to answer these questions, the present economic situation, including the influences by the economic crisis, is analysed to demonstrate the relevance of the Chinese market. The current situation of TNOs in China is explored to provide an understanding of the different strategies to cope with the various challenges and risks in China. As a result an outline of the key success factors and most relevant strategic decision will give advice for the implementation of an efficient strategy. Transnational organizations have to target the Chinese market in order to remain competitive in the process of globalization. Poor infrastructures, different cultural behavior, copyright violations, fierce competition or concerns on the legal systems are risks that TNOs have to face in China. Therefore, transnational organizations need to implement efficient strategies in order to exploit their full potential in the Chinese market. Entering the Chinese market can be done by four major entry modes: Exporting, Licensing (Franchising), Joint Ventures or Foreign Direct Investment. It can be concluded that TNOs have to focus on an efficient innovation strategy and incorporate local responsiveness in their culture in order to adapt their company to the market environment of China. One global strategy for all countries, as in the past, is not possible anymore. TNOs have to implement a “Think Global – Act Local” strategy. The prospects for the Chinese economy are still promising and will continue to offer TNOs enormous competitive advantages.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organizing Academic Work in Higher Education explores how managers influence teaching, learning and academic identities and how new initiatives in teaching and learning change the organizational structure of universities.

This edited collection provides a conceptual frame of organizational change in universities in the context of New Public Management reforms and links it to the core activities of teaching and learning.

Book Synopsis From Iron Rice Bowl to Informalization by : Sarosh Kuruvilla
Download or read book From Iron Rice Bowl to Informalization written by Sarosh Kuruvilla and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-15 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the thirty years since the opening of China's economy, China's economic growth has been nothing short of phenomenal. At the same time, however, its employment relations system has undergone a gradual but fundamental transformation from stable and permanent employment with good benefits (often called the iron rice bowl), to a system characterized by highly precarious employment with no benefits for about 40 percent of the population. Similar transitions have occurred in other countries, such as Korea, although perhaps not at such a rapid pace as in China. This shift echoes the move from "breadwinning" careers to contingent employment in the postindustrial United States. In From Iron Rice Bowl to Informalization, an interdisciplinary group of authors examines the nature, causes, and consequences of informal employment in China at a time of major changes in Chinese society. This book provides a guide to the evolving dynamics among workers, unions, NGOs, employers, and the state as they deal with the new landscape of insecure employment.

Book Synopsis American Images of China, 1931-1949 by : T. Christopher Jespersen
Download or read book American Images of China, 1931-1949 written by T. Christopher Jespersen and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1999-02-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1930's and 1940's, the prevalent American view of China was that of a friendly, democratic, and increasingly Christian state, in many ways akin to the United States. This view was fostered by a wide range of literary, political, and business leaders, including Pearl S. Buck, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Wendell Willkie, Joseph Stillwell, Claire Chennault, and most notably, the powerful publisher of Life and Time, Henry R. Luce. This book shows how the notion of the Chinese as aspiring Americans helped shape American opinions and policies toward Asia for almost twenty years. This notion derived less from the reality of Chinese historical or cultural similarities than from a projection of American values and culture; in the American view, fueled by various political, economic, and religious interests, China was less a geographical entity than a symbol of American hopes and fears. One of the more important consequences was the idealization of China and the demonization of Japan.

Book Synopsis China's Logic: The Balance Development by : Lixing Zou
Download or read book China's Logic: The Balance Development written by Lixing Zou and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The law of balance is not just a motivating power but also serves the purpose of development. How did human society develop in a balanced manner in history? How is China's Modernization impacted by the law of equilibrium? How does the law of balance affect China's economic and trade relations with other countries?This book attempts to answer these questions and more. It applies the balance law methodology to systematically analyze major factors influencing the sustainable development of the Chinese economy and society, and to discuss the balanced way of thinking, market credit, innovation energy and international collaboration that boost sustainable development. While the theoretical system of socialism with Chinese characteristics needs a balanced development perspective, solving the problem of imbalance requires a balanced approach as well as a balanced interaction between man, nature and society, which is the key factor for economic development in the 21st century.
