Abstract:
Chinese cities are characterized with administrative hierarchy. According to administrative hierarchy and government seat, Chinese cities can be divided into seven levels including municipality, vice-provincial city, general provincial capital, general prefecture-level city, county-level city, county town, and general designated town. As the analysis result shows, urban scale and growth is closely related to their administrative hierarchy, and with the upgrading of administrative hierarchy, both the urban population and land scale present a tendency of exponential increase. From the perspective of population and land scale growth, cities with higher administrative hierarchy grow faster than those with lower administrative hierarchy. The differentiation of urban scale and growth is greatly influenced by administration-center bias of governmental resource allocation because cities with different administrative hierarchies make diverse administrative power, resource allocation and institutional arrangement. Under the existing urban system, administration-center bias is also a kind of metropolis bias, and both of them reinforce each other which lead to overexpansion of cities with higher administrative hierarchy and the failure of the policy of urban scale control. To promote the harmonious development of small towns and cities, medium and large cities, we should radically change the administration-center bias in resource allocation, weaken the influence of administrative hierarchy, control the urban scale according to comprehensive carrying capacity and stimulate the development of economy strong town through focusing power expansion to impulse the equality of intercity development and interest equality.

Abstract:
Systems of law usually establish a hierarchy of norms based on the particular source from which the norms derive. In national legal systems, it is commonplace for the fundamental values of society to be given constitutional status and afforded precedence in the event of a conflict with norms enacted by legislation or adopted by administrative regulation; administrative rules themselves must conform to legislative mandates, while written law usually takes precedence over unwritten law and legal norms prevail over nonlegal (political or moral) rules. Norms of equal status must be balanced and reconciled to the extent possible. The mode of legal reasoning applied in practice is thus naturally hierarchical, establishing relationships and order between normative statements and levels of authority.

Abstract:
Yurii Yaremenko was one of the late great theorists of the Soviet planning system. His theory, as presented first in censored and self-censored form in his major monograph, Structural Changes in the Socialist Economy (1981), describes the planned economy as composed of groups of technologically differentiated industries, ordered by their priority for receiving scarce high-quality goods. The forced development of the economy is its qualitative differentiation, which over time creates inherent structural imperatives for large-scale reorderings of that priority hierarchy, lest the phenomena of structural transformation become pathological. This account is supplemented by post-Soviet published interviews and by the author’s own interviews with Yaremenko’s associates. They reveal what Yaremenko’s theory left unsaid: that the disintegration of the late Soviet state into a multitude of competing, self-reproducing “administrative monsters,” the most powerful being the military industries distorted industrial structure, degraded civilian life, and ultimately made reform impossible.

Abstract:
Due to China’s rapid urbanization, the growing presence of land-lost farmers in land acquisition and resettlement (LAR) cases has led to major practical and academic concerns. However, few studies have focused on administration policy restrictions and how they affect land-lost farmers in Chinese courts for land resources. Based on the quantitative analysis and case studies involving 2,242 administrative LAR cases, this interdisciplinary work examines how administrative bureaucracy affects public departments’ ability to win in court. The findings of this study are twofold. First, in the relationship of Tiao, public departments at the top of the hierarchy can use administration policies to screen conflicts, which can increase the win rate of LAR cases. Second, in the relationship of Kuai, authorities’ relationships limit the investment in administration policies, which in turn decide the utility of administration policies in LAR cases. The findings can facilitate the implementation of appropriate administrative and judicial measures in different departments to promote land-lost farmers.

Abstract:
The expansion of urban built-up areas is one of the most prominent characteristics of land use change in China. A growing body of literature has emphasized the triple spatial effects of the administrative hierarchy on urban built-up areas expansion, including heterogeneity, radiation, and segmentation. However, the existing studies have mainly focused on the administrative hierarchy at the prefectural level and above and have primarily concentrated on one single effect; few have integrated the triple effects as a whole. Based on high-resolution land use data and taking Fujian province as a study case, this study proposes an integrated theoretical framework and modeling approach and investigates the triple spatial effects of administrative hierarchy on built-up areas at the prefectural level and below. Descriptive statistics show the following: (1) Built-up areas of municipal districts are significantly larger than those of county-level units, showing the heterogeneity characteristics of urban land distribution across different levels of administrative hierarchy; (2) The county-level units adjacent to municipal districts exploit more built-up areas than other county-level units, indicating the radiation effects of municipal districts; (3) The radiation effects tend to be reduced if a municipal district and its adjacent county-level units are not located in the same prefectural city, revealing the segmentation effects among the different prefectural cities. Using the spatial econometric model with regimes, we further find the following: (1) The strengths of driving forces of built-up areas are heterogeneous between municipal districts and county-level units, and there are significant spatial interactions among administrative units; (2) The spatial interactions between municipal districts and county-level units are stronger than those between two county-level units, but the strength is restricted by the prefectural boundary, reflecting the radiation effects of municipal districts and the segmentation effects of the prefectural boundary, respectively. By investigating the triple spatial effects of the administrative hierarchy on urban built-up areas, we conclude that comprehensively considering these triple effects as a whole will result in a fuller understanding of the rapid built-up areas expansion in China, especially at the prefectural level and below.

Abstract:
The modern administrative systems are huge bureaucratic mechanisms, defined by hierarchy, continuity, impersonality and expertize. There are multiple power games that operate within those systems, and that attenuate the mechanical and rational functionning of the government. When it takes the executive’s place, the administration becomes an independent bureaucracy, out of control and capable of undermining or even blocking the political initiatives of the government.

Abstract:
In this paper we show the properties of a spatial hierarchy found in a random configuration in which points are randomly placed on a plane and ranks are randomly assigned to these points. First we show a method of detecting a spatial hierarchy in a configuration of ranked points on a plane (not necessarily the random configuration). Second, using this method we obtain the spatial hierarchy of the random configuration mentioned above, and examine its properties theoretically as well as numerically with the Monte Carlo simulation. From this examination, we find that the spatial hierarchy of the random configuration shares more or less similar properties with Christaller's spatial hierarchy. Stated explicitly, the shape of dominant regions is hexagonal on average; the areas of the same rank centers are fairly homogeneous; the K value defined by Christaller is almost constant. The constant K of the random configuration is close to seven, implying that the spatial hierarchy of the random configuration is close to Christaller's hierarchy of the administrative principle. These results explain to a certain extent why spatial hierarchies are often observed in the real world. At the same time, these results give us a warning. Even if we find a spatial hierarchy in the real world, we should question whether or not the observed hierarchy is a seeming hierarchy like the spatial hierarchy in the random configuration.

A proposta dessa pesquisa é apresentar as características das carreiras de docente e de técnico administrativo em educação das Instituições Federais de Ensino Superior no Brasil, investigar se existem relações hierárquicas entre essas distintas carreiras, baseada no que dispõe a legislação, e, ainda, analisar as relações de trabalho entre esses servidores, no âmbito das IFES e, em especial, na Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), a partir do método do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo (DSC).Esta pesquisa pode ser classificada como histórico-documental, visto que buscou apurar e ordenar os documentos históricos e a legislação que abrange as carreiras docente e técnico-administrativo em educação, no âmbito das universidades federais brasileiras, analisando a natureza das relações de hierarquia existentes entre ambas. Ainda, como complemento à pesquisa documental, foi realizada uma pesquisa qualitativa semiestruturada, objetivando entender quais as convergências e divergências entre o que preceitua a legislação acerca da linha hierárquica entre as carreiras e como se procede no dia a dia na prática. Foram utilizados dois critérios de análise dos dados: no que concerne à legislação a análise foi histórico-documental; com relação aos dados coletados da pesquisa foi utilizada a metodologia de análise do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo (DSC). Como resultado da pesquisa e dos DSCs elaborados, foram construídas algumas propostas direcionadas às IFES e seus servidores, dentre elas a de maior valorização de seus recursos humanos, em especial dos TAEs, a necessidade de profissionalização e capacitação dos gestores acadêmicos, a possibilidade de técnicos-administrativos assumirem cargos de gestão nas IFES e a melhoria no ambiente organizacional, através da eliminação da partidarização, da transformação de sua estrutura interna e do desenvolvimento de um novo contexto de relações de trabalho, eliminando o corporativismo, o conservadorismo e o individualismo.
The purpose of this research is to present the characteristics of the careers of teachers and administrative technicians in education of the Federal Institutions of Higher Education in Brazil, investigate if there are hierarchical relationships between these different careers, based on what the legislation provides, and also analyze the scope of the IFES, especially for the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS), using the Collective Subject Discourse (DSC) method. This research can be classified as historical-documentary, since it sought to ascertain and order the historical documents and the legislation that covers the teaching and technical-administrative careers in education, in the scope of the Brazilian federal universities, analyzing the nature of the hierarchical relationships existing between both. In addition, as a complement to documentary research, a semi– structured qualitative research was carried out to understand the convergences and divergences between what precepts the legislation about the hierarchical line between careers and how it is carried out day by day in practice. Two data analysis criteria were used: as far as the legislation was concerned, the analysis was historical-documentary; in relation to the data collected from the research, the Discourse of the Collective Subject (DSC) methodology was used. As a result of the research and the elaborated DSCs, some proposals were made directed to the IFES and its employees, among them the one of greater valorization of its human resources, in particular theTAEs, the necessity of professionalization and qualification of the academic managers, the possibility of technicians to assume managerial positions in the IFES and improve the organization at the environment by elimination of partisanization, transforming the internal structure and developing a new context of labor relations, eliminating corporatism, conservatism and individualism.

Xefteri, Stamatina. "Les directives européennes, instrument juridique des autorités administratives nationales." Thesis, Paris 2, 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019PA020022.

Full text
Abstract:
Les directives européennes ont toujours été considérées comme un instrument juridique à la disposition des particuliers face à un État membre défaillant. L’invocabilité et l’application des directives sont analysées sous l’unique prisme des droits des justiciables. Contrairement à cette perspective, la présente étude vise à démontrer que la directive devient un moyen juridique d’intervention dans l’ordre juridique interne, dans la mesure où les autorités nationales l’invoquent et l’appliquent dans leurs rapports avec les administrés et les autres autorités nationales ou européennes. L’apparition du droit dérivé a bouleversé la hiérarchie des normes, ainsi que les obligations pesant sur les autorités administratives. Grâce à la primauté du droit de l’Union européenne et à l’impératif d’efficacité dans tous les États membres, la directive est devenue un paramètre de légalité des normes nationales: elle revendique sa place parmi les paramètres traditionnels de légalité, mais parfois elle se trouve en conflit avec eux ou elle se substitue à toute règle nationale contraire. Toutefois, la directive est, entre les mains de l’administration, non seulement une source de droit supranationale à appliquer de manière passive, mais également une norme utilisée pour servir ses propres causes, ainsi que les buts poursuivis par l’Union européenne. En effet, l’évolution de la jurisprudence européenne et administrative a abouti non seulement à un renforcement des obligations de l’administration, mais aussi à l’amplification des formes d’invocabilité au profit de l’administration et à la reconnaissance d’une autonomie du pouvoir réglementaire à l’égard du pouvoir législatif dans le respect des directives. Ces éléments révèlent le rôle particulièrement dynamique de toutes les autorités administratives agissant dans le champ d’application des directives, dans leur transposition, et exécution dans les ordres juridiques nationaux
European Union directives have always been considered as a legal instrument relied upon by individuals vis-à-vis a defaulting Member State. The right to rely on directives as well as their application are examined under the sole lens of the rights of the litigants. Contrary to this perspective, the present study aims to demonstrate that directives become a legal means of intervention in the domestic legal order, insofar as national authorities rely on and apply them in their relations with citizens and other national or European authorities. The emergence of secondary legislation has disrupted the hierarchy of norms, as well as reshaped the obligations imposed on the administrative authorities. On the basis of the primacy of European Union law and the imperative of efficiency in all Member States, the legality of national rules requires compliance with directives. Thus, directives claim their place among the conventional parameters of legality, but they also come in conflict with the latter at times or even replace any national rule to the contrary effect. However, the directive as an instrument is not only a source of supranational law in the hands of the administration to be applied passively, but also a European standard used to serve its own purposes, as well as the objectives pursued by the European Union. In fact, the evolution of European and administrative case-law has not only led to a strengthening of the obligations of the administration, but has also amplified the forms of relying on a directive to the benefit of the administration and recognized the autonomy of the administrative authorities over the legislature as far as the implementation of directives is concerned. These elements reveal the particularly dynamic role of all the administrative authorities acting within the scope of the directives, in their transposition and implementation in the national legal orders

Full text
Abstract:
This doctoral thesis explores the factors that influence the decisions and intentions behind two key stages in the entrepreneurial process, namely, new venture entry and continuance, among entrepreneurs of Chinese origin and Chinese nationality. Using the push and pull framework and incorporating different theoretical perspectives, the thesis comprises three independent studies that investigate socio-economic, institutional, cultural and political determinants contributing to entrepreneurs’ entrepreneurial entry and continuance processes. The three studies explore Chinese entrepreneurs in different challenging situations to contribute to understanding the push and pull forces affecting entrepreneurial decisions and intentions. Building on the middleman minority theory, Study 1 focuses on both venture entry and entrepreneurial continuance stages by exploring Chinese immigrant entrepreneurs in the Asia-Pacific region. Study 2 draws on the underdog entrepreneurship model and examines new venture entry decisions made by internal migrant entrepreneurs in China. Study 3 applies the theory of planned behaviour (TPB) to investigate entrepreneurial continuance intentions among Chinese entrepreneurs in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) during the COVID-19 pandemic. This thesis makes use of both primary and secondary data, as well as archival data, and employs a combination of qualitative and quantitative analytical approaches to show how socio-economic, institutional, cultural and political factors influence entrepreneurial decisions and intentions. The study finds evidence that push and pull factors significantly influence entrepreneurs’ venture creation and continuance decisions or intentions, but the effects vary between different entrepreneurial contexts. This thesis enhances understanding of push and pull dynamics influencing entrepreneurial activities. It also extends knowledge of the relevant theories (i.e., middleman minorities, underdog entrepreneurship, and TPB) as developed and tested in the three studies. The results will help policymakers in the immigration, entrepreneurship and innovation sectors to develop better systems to support international and internal migrant entrepreneurs as well as SME entrepreneurs and their ventures.

Abstract:
L’abondance des propositions de redécoupage de la carte des collectivités territoriales témoigne du décalage persistant entre leur taille et leur rôle. Leur territoire ne permet plus à certaines collectivités d’exercer efficacement leurs compétences. La première solution consisterait à redécouper le territoire des collectivités territoriales ; la seconde consisterait à modifier le rôle de chaque niveau de collectivités territoriales. Dans les deux cas, c’est l’organisation territoriale de la République qu’il faudrait réformer. Il appartient alors au juriste de déterminer si le législateur est compétent, à droit constitutionnel constant, pour mener seul ces réformes. Le droit constitutionnel, s’il ne prévoit pas toujours la compétence de l’État pour réformer l’organisation territoriale de la République, ne s’oppose pas à ce que l’État engage seul de telles réformes. Pourtant le législateur s’est montré soucieux des intérêts des collectivités territoriales existantes en évitant d’en supprimer des unités et en ne mettant pas en place une hiérarchie normative entre elles. En conséquence, les réformes menées par l’État n’ont pas permis de résorber le décalage entre la taille des collectivités et leur rôle. Cet échec ne saurait témoigner de contraintes constitutionnelles contrairement à ce qui est parfois soutenu dans le discours politique. Il révèle en revanche le poids des contraintes politiques qui s’exercent sur le législateur, notamment par le biais du cumul des mandats. La fin de cette originalité française viendra peut-être confirmer cette affirmation
The abundance of proposals aiming to redraw the map of the local authorities reflects the remaining gap between their size and their role. Some authorities cannot effectively exercise their powers anymore. The first solution would be to redraw the boundaries of the local authorities; the second one would be to change the role of each level of local authorities. In both case, it is the territorial organisation of the Republic which should be reformed. It is then up to legal experts to determine whether the legislative power is allowed by the Constitution to carry out alone those reforms. If the Constitution does not always assert the jurisdiction of the State to reform the territorial organisation of the Republic, it does not forbid the State to engage alone such reforms. However, the attitude of the legislative power was to protect the interests of the existing local authorities by avoiding to remove units and by not setting a normative hierarchy between them. Consequently, the reforms carried out by the State have failed to resorb the gap between the size and the role of the local authorities. This failure does not give proof of constitutional constraints, contrary to what is argued in the political discourse. It reveals by contrast the weight of the political constraints which the legislative power has to face with, especially because of the combination of elective offices. The end of this French peculiarity will maybe confirm this assert

Full text
Abstract:

Jungian Psychological Type is the foundation of many modern theories of personality. Many aspects of the theory have yet to be explored with empirical research, one area in particular being the theory behind the hierarchy of preferences, which is important because the Types are classified by the order of their preferred functions. A latent class analysis technique was applied to the eight ranked function-attitude scores of 5,247 participants who took the Majors Personality Type IndicatorTM (PTI) and Majors Personality Type Elements™ (PTE) assessments. The superior, auxiliary, and tertiary preferences of the latent classes were examined so that the nature of the relationships amongst the three preferences could be observed. Results show that the superior/auxiliary preferences were consistently opposite in process (one rational and one irrational)—but not consistently in attitude. Not only did the superior/auxiliary/tertiary preferences exhibit complementary relationships to one another, the tertiary function was never antagonistic to the auxiliary or superior preference. Remarkably, the superior and inferior functions were antagonistic to one another in 46 out of the 47 classes that resulted from the analysis. Thus, the outcomes support Jung’s theory but also present evidence against other popular Type theories. The resulting profiles support the hypothesis that there may be more than 8 or 16 Types, which holds implications for the practical application of the Type theory as well as the classification and assessment of Psychological Type. A model for a systemic conceptualization of the hierarchy is presented and suggestions for future research are proposed.

Full text
Abstract:
Oil companies in Alberta, Canada, invested $32 billion on new oil sands projects in 2013. Despite the size of this investment, there is a demonstrable deficiency in the uniformity and understanding of environmental legislation requirements that manifest into increased project compliance risks. This descriptive study developed 2 prioritized lists of environmental regulatory compliance risks and mitigation strategies and used multi-criteria decision theory for its theoretical framework. Information from compiled lists of environmental compliance risks and mitigation strategies was used to generate a specialized pairwise survey, which was piloted by 5 subject matter experts (SMEs). The survey was validated by a sample of 16 SMEs, after which the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to rank a total of 33 compliance risks and 12 mitigation strategy criteria. A key finding was that the AHP is a suitable tool for ranking of compliance risks and mitigation strategies. Several working hypotheses were also tested regarding how SMEs prioritized 1 compliance risk or mitigation strategy compared to another. The AHP showed that regulatory compliance, company reputation, environmental compliance, and economics ranked the highest and that a multi criteria mitigation strategy for environmental compliance ranked the highest. The study results will inform Alberta oil sands industry leaders about the ranking and utility of specific compliance risks and mitigations strategies, enabling them to focus on actions that will generate legislative and public trust. Oil sands leaders implementing a risk management program using the risks and mitigation strategies identified in this study will contribute to environmental conservation, economic growth, and positive social change.

Abstract:
Purpose: The purpose of this explanatory study is to extend the knowledge of how to develop an employer value proposition that conveys an attractive employer brand. Literature Review: Literature reviewed for this study includes the concepts of employer brand, employee value proposition, and different aspects of work attributes (i.e. interest value, social value, economic value, development value, and application value) that together form perceived employer attractiveness. Further literature that is reviewed includes the concepts of attitudes and the hierarchy of effects. Methodology: A mixed-method approach with a deductive logic of inquiry was adopted for this explanatory study, for which primary data of both quantitative and qualitative nature were collected from engineers, through the conduction of web-based self-completion questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Findings: The study found that the involvement and motivation level behind the hierarchy of effects had a significant impact on the perceived value of one of the categories of the work attributes reflecting the employer's attractiveness, whilst the perceived value of the other work attributes included in the study were not expected to increase or decrease in combination with the intensity towards job search activities. It was also found that the attitudes towards the behavior of applying for a job, measured through the involvement and motivation level towards job search activities, were shifting within the target group, hence influencing their perceived employer attractiveness. Further on, the study showed a consistent high perceived value of all work attributes that were studied, in terms of what work attributes to include in the employer value proposition. Meanwhile, a multidimensional nature of the perceptions on employer attractiveness was also acknowledged, which hence could be crucial in developing an employer value proposition that stands out on the employer market.

Abstract:
This thesis studies how decision-making might work in an organization without a predetermined formal decision-maker. By studying three selected areas in organizational decision making at a flat organization, the way decisions are made without a formal decision-maker is presented. The study includes an analysis of what factors drive decisions and possible effects of the flat organizational approach. This thesis focuses on decisions regarding wage-setting, recruitment, and the setting of long-term goals. The study finds several relevant conditions which contribute to making a flat organization's decision-making system possible, including organizational culture and transparency. The study indicates that cultural fit is an important aspect in maintaining a flat structure at an organization. To access data, in order to examine the principles of decisions, study at Menlo Innovations has been performed. The core of the study relies on semi-structured interviews with the employees, a virtual tour of the organization, a pre-recorded interview with Menlo representatives, and additional articles and documents. This data has helped the thesis answer how decision-making in the areas of wage-setting, recruitment, and the setting of long-term goals, might work in an organization without a predetermined formal decision-maker.

Abstract:
This chapter examines administrative rationalism, a discourse of environmental problem solving which captures the dominant governmental response to the onset of environmental crisis. Administrative rationalism emphasizes the role of the expert rather than the citizen or producer/consumer in social problem solving, and which stresses social relationships of hierarchy rather than equality or competition. The chapter first considers the manifestations of administrative rationalism in various institutions and practices, including environmental impact assessment, planning, and rationalistic policy analysis techniques, before discussing the discourse analysis of administrative rationalism. It then explains the justification of administrative rationalism and problems of administrative rationalism, caused in part by its association with bureaucracy. It also explores the implications of the transition from government to governance for administrative rationalism.

Abstract:
This chapter describes Inca political and economic organization and the infrastructure established to support imperial administration. Inca conceptualizations of politics and economics differed from those of the West, and the organization of power in the imperial capital relied heavily on the ruler’s person. Provincial areas were conceived as four distinct regions bound to the ruler by a hierarchy of Inca governors, record-keepers, and local officials. Inca rule modified local labor practices to increase economic production, using resettlement and special labor statuses to ensure the production of specific products across their diverse empire. Royal estates sustained royal households in the Cuzco region, and in the provinces, a road network connected administrative centers and storage facilities to the capital.

Abstract:
After many years of scholarship, administrative experience, and leadership in Catholic higher education, the author has written a book that draws upon many academic disciplines to paint a picture of the past and the current situation (challenges, strengths, and weaknesses) of Catholic universities. After identifying the foundational pillars of Catholic higher education, he points the way to a future that is open to modern culture without capitulating to it, embraces Catholic intellectual traditions without fossilizing them, and presents a vision of its relationship to the hierarchy that is respectful, independent, faithful, and dynamic.

Abstract:
AbstractThe social is constituted by on-going communication and behavior patterns that influence participants perceptions, expectations and moral boundaries. For some, moral boundaries protect the racial hierarchy of American prosperity by calling natural what is actually social. Controversary about the meaning of sex, race, and ancestry can help us understand this difference, and thereby sharpen our awareness of our experiences of the social from social diversity to social amnesia. Social amnesia eliminates any awareness of the climate of injustice. In this context, a disturbing trend is our increasing reliance on private philanthropy to solve social problems, which moves us toward a new form of feudalism instead of a civic democracy. In a civic space that arises from the connections between our shared humanity and social differences, it is possible to listen to diverse voices and to make incoherent stories coherent.

Full text
Abstract:
The boundaries of the modern city are defined by administrative divisions – boards informing about the lines created artificially on a map and not by physical “barriers” – walls, gates, frontages. At the same time, dynamic urbanization of suburbs takes a spontaneous and often chaotic nature which satisfies the immediate needs of today's generation. This is often done without any reflection on the future order and shape of urban spaces. These are the lost spaces where the essence of urbanity has been eliminated – i.e. a clear hierarchy of public interiors which the local community is organized around and which the accepted forms of private buildings have been subordinated to. Numerous, often radical voices and opinions meaning to improve the status quo appear among contemporary and renowned artists. The article attempts to provide a synthesis of a certain range of issues related to the blurring of urban boundaries’ readability and the need to return to the distinctive definition of today's urban structures and spaces.
