Jhao, Wei-li 07 July 2008 (has links)
Research this probe into Greenpeace actives in entering China change to launch activities with case study. In every activity of Greenpeace, especially observe the development patterns in China of the Greenpeace organization with the contamination accident of the electronics waste. Each aspects involved can be found out how the international NGO uses one's own influence to influence the decision on the environmental protection topic of Chinese Government in the incident. Understanding it influences making propping up Corporatism how the international NGO comes from it. The thesis carries on the discussion on the development of the NGOs in China. Probe into Chinese society and the transitions of the state-society relationship with the evolution of the NGOs of China themselves, and then introduce China¡¦s NGOs versus one's own NGOs with the norm on the system legally separately. It also helps to understand and make the Corporatism controlling the state-society relationship of China. And then we come to regard globalization of the environmental protection topic as the theme, and explain the influence that the environmental protection topic is globalization. Globalization has condensed panhuman the environmental consciousness of civil society. It is through the envirmental international NGOs to practice the goals to protect our envirnment. The environmental problem of China is paid attention to gradually this wave of globalization at the same time. It also lets the international NGOs realize that launch the necessity of the activities in China, too. On the other hand, it introduces development and operations of the Greenpeace by the discussion of this component; it will offer us an intacter understanding. It is the focal point of this thesis that Greenpeace and government, enterprise, media, international organization, etc. Regarding contaminatal accident of the electronics waste is as individual case finally. In this dissertaton, I also discuss with more specific introduction about how the Greenpeace uses its own resource to enforce every activies, build and constructe the advocacy networks of proposing, make the best of the relation with each side to give play to the influence of international NGOs. From the electronics waste contamination accident, it shows that the Greenpeace is engaged in. We can find out how the international NGOs use huge resource to develop in China. Under making up doctrine influence, it reflects one's own value to prove that China still needs international NGOs to help to Chinese problems under the same topic. It shows the important role of the international NGOs in the world.

Why factions matter : a theory of party dominance at the subnational level

Ibarra-Rueda, Hector 04 November 2013 (has links)
What explains the resilience of formerly nationally dominant parties at the subnational level? This dissertation demonstrates that factionalism is key. When intra-party factions are united, subnational dominant parties retain power even under adverse electoral conditions. By contrast, divisions and conflicts among internal groups lead these parties to lose even in favorable electoral contexts. I test these claims using a variety of quantitative and qualitative evidence from Mexico, focusing on the electoral performance of the Revolutionary Institutional Party (PRI) in contemporary gubernatorial elections. Democratization potentially undermines unity in dominant parties because it provides politicians with viable exit options (i.e., joining the opposition) and because authoritarian central party committees no longer control subnational politics. Yet, I argue that factions can cooperate under democracy when they were more autonomous from the center during the authoritarian period. The negotiation skills acquired in the past help them "get along" in the absence of an external enforcer. By contrast, previously subordinated factions never acquired such skills and quickly became antagonistic to each other under democracy. As I show, collaboration had positive electoral consequences in subnational elections whereas antagonism had pernicious ones. / text

Habitação e cidadania : a vila operária do IAPI : Porto Alegre 1940/1950

Costa, Lucila Pinheiro da January 2009 (has links)
Esta dissertação analisa a relação política existente entre o projeto de construção do Conjunto Residencial Passo D´Areia (Vila do IAPI) de Porto Alegre e a estrutura políticopartidária- sindical do fim dos anos 40, inicio dos 50. Para tanto, foi analisado o padrão de construção da cidadania no Brasil; como uma das questões mais importantes que emergem no cenário político da década de 1930. O trabalho justifica-se na medida em que a produção acadêmica existente pouco tem avaliado o papel desempenhado pelas vilas operárias durante o período abordado. Trata-se de uma pesquisa baseada, principalmente, na análise documental sobre o tema e em entrevistas semi-estruturadas. As questões são discutidas na seguinte perspectiva: a primeira delas visa abordar uma discussão teórica sobre a cidadania no Brasil; a segunda discute o Estado brasileiro a partir de 1930, dando ênfase ao corporativismo montado durante o Estado Novo, no qual a política sindical atrelada ao Estado via legislação trabalhista, estrutura o processo de cooptação; e a terceira, discute o objeto central da pesquisa - a vila do IAPI. Desta forma, o trabalho busca compreender em que medida a política habitacional gestada no Estado se constitui em moeda de troca com determinados grupos sociais. Este estudo de caso, tendo como foco uma vila operária, permite uma ótica centrada no fato de que o projeto de construção da cidadania regulada ensejou políticas públicas cujo objetivo foi definir o padrão de inserção da massa trabalhadora no processo político. / This dissertation analyzes the political relation between the construction project of the Passo D' Areia Housing Complex ( IAPI Village) in Porto Alegre and the political - party - union structure in the late 40's and early 50's. For that, the pattern of the citizen building in Brazil; was analyzed as one of the most important issues that emerged in the political scene in the 1930's. The paper's justification lies in the fact that the current academic production has not been evaluating the role of the working villages in the period described in here. It is a research based mostly in the documental analysis about the theme and in semi structured interviews. The issues are discussed in the following perspective: the first one brings a theoretical discussion about the citizenship in Brazil; the second one is about the Brazilian State and from 1930 on, putting emphasis on the corporatism in the New State period, in which the union policy, intertwined with the State via work legislation, structures the cooptation project; and the third aspect discusssed is the main point of the research - the IAPI Village. By that, the paper tries to understand in which ways the housing policies of the State turn into a currency exchange with some social groups. This case study is focused on a working village, allowing a view centered in the fact that the construction project of the regulated citizenship permitted public policies which object was to define the insertion of the workforce in the political process.

Sindicalismo rural no âmbito do sistema agroindustrial leiteiro do Rio Grande do Sul – 1995-2010

Raupp, André Kuhn January 2013 (has links)
Diversos foram os motivos que historicamente conduziram os agricultores, independente de seu perfil socioeconômico, a desenvolver estratégias coletivas de defesa de seus interesses. No âmbito do sistema agroindustrial leiteiro do RS, as federações de sindicatos rurais e de trabalhadores rurais, apesar de dividirem esse papel com outras formas de organização dos agricultores com caráter mais específico, têm se mantido como interlocutoras e representantes privilegiadas dos interesses das categorias representadas em distintos fóruns públicos e privados. Nesse contexto, estabeleceu-se como objetivo geral deste trabalho identificar e analisar as ações, proposições e reivindicações desencadeadas e formuladas pela Federação dos Trabalhadores na Agricultura no Rio Grande do Sul e Federação da Agricultura do Rio Grande do Sul, a partir das mudanças no sistema agroindustrial leiteiro, no período 1995-2010. A pesquisa que fundamentou tal propósito envolveu as técnicas de pesquisa bibliográfica, pesquisa documental, pesquisa eletrônica, observação e entrevista semiestruturada. Os dados obtidos foram analisados através da técnica de análise de conteúdo. A bibliografia consultada diz respeito a cinco grandes temas que se inter-relacionam e complementam: representação sindical no rural, sistema agroindustrial leiteiro, sistema agroalimentar, políticas públicas e neocorporativismo. Evidenciou-se que as tendências de mudança do sistema agroindustrial leiteiro dizem respeito aos seus diversos elementos integrantes e múltiplas dimensões que lhe são inerentes. A natureza dos processos de mudança é igualmente diversa, abrangendo questões de ordem técnica, organizacional, social, institucional e econômica. As federações sindicais rurais elaboraram reivindicações e proposições, no período 1995-2010, que buscaram influenciar três conjuntos principais de mudanças: a) as relacionadas ao sistema de formação de preços ao produtor de leite; b) as relacionadas aos aspectos sanitários da produção; c) as políticas públicas com impactos no sistema agroindustrial leiteiro. Várias ações foram desencadeadas no intuito de viabilizar as proposições e reivindicações formuladas, direcionadas majoritariamente para as instâncias de decisão do Estado. Diversas mudanças vêm ocorrendo sem nenhum tipo de ação efetiva por parte das federações sindicais, cuja atuação tem sido marcada por convergências e divergências. / There were several reasons that historically conducted farmers, independently on their social-economic profile, to develop collective strategies for defending their interests. In the scope of the dairy agro-industrial system in RS, rural union federations and rural workers, despite of dividing this role with other forms of farmers’ organizations with a more specific feature, have remained as interlocutors and privileged representatives of interests of the categories represented in distinct public and private forums. In this context, the general goal of this research has been identifying and analyzing actions, propositions and claims triggered and formulated by the Federation of Agricultural Workers in Rio Grande do Sul and Federation of Agriculture in Rio Grande do Sul, derived from adjustments in the dairy agro-industrial system, from 1995 to 2010. In addition, the research that has based such objective involved technical bibliographic, documentary and electronic search, observation and a semi-structured interview. Data obtained were analyzed through the technique of content analysis, and the consulted bibliography regards five major themes that have been interrelated and have complemented: the rural union representation, dairy agro-industrial and agro-food system, public policies and neo-corporatism. Moreover, the changing trends in the dairy agro-industrial system were evidenced regarding their several integrant elements and multiple dimensions which are inherent to them, and the nature of adjustment processes has been equally diverse, approaching technical, organizational, social, institutional and economic issues. Furthermore, rural union federations elaborated claims and propositions, from 1995 to 2010, which aimed to influence three main groups of adjustments: a) the ones related to the pricing system towards the dairy producer; b) the ones related to the sanitary aspects of the production; c) public policies with impacts in the dairy agro-industrial system. Therefore, several actions were initiated with the means of enabling formulated propositions and claims, majorly directed to instances of State decisions, as well as several adjustments have been occurring without any type of effective action by union federations, whose action has been marked by convergences and divergences.

Constructing domains of corporate social responsibility: a politicization of corporations at the expense of a de-politicization of society?

Höllerer, Markus, Meyer, Renate 25 August 2017 (has links) (PDF)
Using annual reports of Austrian listed corporations between 1990 and 2005, we analyze how corporations theorize their social and societal responsibilities. We empirically illustrate that these organizations not only evoke several distinct domains of corporate responsibility, but also assign themselves and others specific positions in the social matrix of relevancy and power - which in turn gives rise to a distinct pattern on the field level. We discuss various features and implications of what we describe as a politicization of individual corporations at the price of a relocation of politics away from recognized and firmly institutionalized arenas of collective interest representation (i.e., the polity) as well as a broad-scale de-politicization of society.
