Something new: value and change in finance*     

Daniel Souleles 《Journal of Cultural Economy》2017,10(4):393-404

ABSTRACT

Ethnographic and social scientific accounts of the financiers that buy and sell companies for profit often homogenize the players in these social dramas, relying on blunt, totalizing definitions of culture or overly deterministic articulations of habitus. This article, drawing on a two-year study of private equity investors, offers an alternative analytic frame for making sense of how private equity people buy and sell companies. It explores the ways in which private equity people make arguments persuading one another and the larger public that an investment is worth making. Important to these arguments are not only substantive content, the evidence that investors marshal to support a thesis, but also reflective evaluation of what counts as good evidence, meta-commentary. It is in these split levels of analysis that we can appreciate the cultural diversity within finance, Wall Street, and investment banking. I will also suggest that understanding how investors are arguing substantively as well as meta-pragmatically begins to outline a useful theory of culture change within the world of investment banking.  相似文献

庄子摆脱社会之困的方法论探讨及其生态解读     

王素芬  丁全忠 《保定学院学报》2017,30(1)

庄子认为，人的一生都面临着命运、社会、自我以及环境等因素带来的难以摆脱的困境。其中，社会之困主要是指时势、儒家仁义等对人的限制或束缚。庄子对时势之困采取了安时处顺、无为而治的消解方法，对仁义之困采取了法天贵真、掊击圣人、以道释儒的化解策略。在庄子所采取的摆脱社会困境的种种策略和方法中所贯穿的都是顺物自然的生态学原则。  相似文献   

Converging Higher Education Systems in a Global Setting: the example of France and India     

Marc Pilkington 《European Journal of Education》2014,49(1):113-126

We present a comparative survey between the French and Indian higher education systems. In spite of their respective idiosyncratic features, we show that the two countries have both evolved comprehensively toward a knowledge-based society, in order to ensure the prosperity of their citizens. Secondly, we single out a threefold convergence between the two higher education systems on academic, technological and institutional grounds.  相似文献   

论镖局文化与中国武术文化的融合     

周义义  王智慧 《北京体育大学学报》2016,39(2):29-34

摘要：镖局文化是中国武术文化的重要组成部分，也是武术强势价值与功能的集中展现。采用文献资料法、对比研究和逻辑分析等方法，对镖局文化对中国武术文化的影响进行研究。认为：镖局是特殊社会环境和历史背景的催生以及经济演化的结果，武术搏击护卫价值的强势显现是镖局的基本入世态势；镖局的产生具有地缘、尚武和诚信三个方面的社会文化属性，在运作模式上主要体现为宗族属性和关系属性；镖局与镖局文化的出现促使习武者职业选择的多元化，在一定程度上促进了武术文化的扩布；促使崇尚强者、尚武精神与社会软性控制的文化元素在武术文化中进一步融入；在传统的道德伦理约束之下尚武、谦和、隐忍、诚信、无畏、正义、助人的镖局文化精神与武术文化精神相互融通；诚信教化、关系互动的社会属性与武术文化深入融合。  相似文献

‘The Winner Takes it All’: Values and Benefits of Israeli Sports Gambling Advertisements     

Osnat Roth-Cohen  Ilan Tamir 《国际体育史杂志》2017,34(7-8):639-655

Sports gambling is a well-established practice in Israel, whose beginnings can be traced to 1951. In recent years, the activities of the Israel Sports Betting Board (ISBB), also known as the ‘Toto Commission’, have become extremely popular with the public at large, and especially with sports fans. The study examines the changing advertising messages and creative appeals featured in the ISBB’s various advertising campaigns throughout Israeli history, and specifically the broad social meanings that can be inferred from these campaigns. The findings illustrate how significant structures of meaning in advertising function as reflections of the state of sports and society in Israel and as representations of some of the most salient phenomena in these domains. For example, for many years advertisements have been dominated by male presence, reflected primarily in the featured characters and language representations. Also prominent are representations of militarism as well as global biases, which are illustrated by the use of English in the local Israeli gambling brand name (‘Winner’), for example.  相似文献

志愿服务与弱势群体的权利保障   总被引：8，自引：0，他引：8  

李迎生 《教学与研究》2005,(3):27-32

在仅仅依靠政府和社会难以全面实现对弱势群体的基本权利保障的情况下,充分发挥青年志愿者组织对弱势群体的志愿服务的特色和优势,切实保障弱势群体的基本权利,以弥补政府和社会相关服务的不足,对促进社会的公平与和谐,具有重要的意义。鉴于对弱势群体的志愿服务的长期性、复杂性及较强的专业性等特点,青年志愿者的相关服务尚有一些需要进一步完善之处。  相似文献
