Full textAbstract:
If innovative work practices improve performance, why does the intensity of their adoption vary substantially across establishments? Following a lead suggested by some sociological studies, the authors empirically investigate the role of social networks (ties to other organizations) in the organizational learning associated with diffusion of innovative work practices. Using establishment data on formal affiliation and other network measures, they find that managerial participation in networks—specifically, in industry and cross-industry associations, civic organizations, and the internal networks of multi-unit firms—positively affected both the probability that high-performance work practices and employee training programs would be adopted and, where they were adopted, the intensity of their adoption. Furthermore, multiple affiliations raised the likelihood that an establishment would pursue an intensive approach to work reorganization and training.

Full textAbstract:
The article gives a review on key directions of ostracism and social shunning in foreign studies. In the context of ostracism the satisfaction of one or few fundamental individual needs may be limited: needs of control, self-respect, affiliation and meaningful existence - causing pain and distress. Ostracism can cause extremely radical behavioral reactions of an individual (mass murder of innocent people, conversion to a religious cult or extremism, etc.). Although anger and aggression are the most predicted reaction to ostracism and related phenomena in recent years more and more studies have shown that prosocial reactions are possible as a response, i.e. increased emotional intelligence, increased social sensitivity, demonstration of social mimicry in order to enhance affiliation and establishment of rapport.

Full textAbstract:
The Nagarjunakonda stone inscription dated in the reign of the Ābhīra king Vasuṣeṇa presents many problems of interpretation, solutions for some of which are proposed in this article. For example, it has been understood by previous editors as referring to the joint establishment of an image of Aṣṭabhujasvāmin by a group of kings, but in reality it refers to the establishment by a single person, apparently an official of Vasuṣeṇa. The mention of the other kings actually refers to the well-attested custom of seizing sacred images from rivals. The deity Aṣṭabhujasvāmin, whose affiliation was previously contested, is shown on comparative grounds to be a form of Viṣṇu.

Full textAbstract:
Various factors influence the development of collective bargaining structures. Based on cross-sectional and pooled cross-sectional data from the British Workplace Employment Relations Survey series, this article discusses and empirically analyses the establishment-level determinants of collective bargaining centralization, i.e. whether an establishment is covered by single-employer collective bargaining or multi-employer collective bargaining. It argues that the employers' and trade unions' preferences for a particular bargaining structure depend on the outcome of cost—benefit analyses of different available institutional alternatives. The actual choice of a collective bargaining structure then reflects the interaction of the actors' preferences, moderated by an institutionally determined decision-making process. Estimation of a probit model with pooled cross-sectional data shows that the number of unions present at the establishment, membership of an employers' association, and public sector affiliation are positively associated with collective bargaining centralization. In contrast to this, establishment size, trade union density, foreign ownership and control, and international product markets are negatively associated with centralization. Neither establishment age nor foreign ownership appeared to be significant.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractIn the debate about indigenous cultural property, the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) of the United States has developed and implemented an unorthodox concept of “cultural affiliation.” The act entitles Indian tribes and Native Hawaiian organizations to claim repatriation of their cultural property—comprising human remains, funerary objects, sacred objects, and objects of cultural patrimony—upon the establishment of a specific shared group identity and a cultural affiliation to an object. The concept of cultural affiliation in the act replaces proof of ownership, or proof that an object was stolen or illicitly removed. It thereby amends traditional standards saturated in notions of property and ownership that have perpetuated since Roman law and allows the evolution of a control regime over cultural property that takes into account the cultural aspects of the objects. On an international level, the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) of 2007 stipulates a similar emancipation of indigenous peoples' cultural property claims from notions of property and ownership. This article explores NAGPRA's cultural affiliation concept as it stands between private property and human rights law and brings into focus the concept's elements that go beyond traditional property law. It ultimately looks at the potential and limits of the concept from an international perspective as a standard for other countries that consider implementation of UNDRIP's provisions on indigenous, tangible, movable cultural property.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractThrough an examination of a case of a popular switch in religious affiliation in the small regional capital of Fatick, this article explores the factors that give rise to new Muslim maraboutic movements in Senegal. While the majority of the Serer population of the town had previously claimed an affiliation with the Sy family branch of the Tijaniyya order, based in Tivaouane, over the course of the past six to eight years there has been a widespread transfer of allegiance to a Serer marabout, El Hajj Ousmane Mama Ansou Niang, known popularly as Ma Ansou Niang. A consideration of this realignment reveals little basis for interpreting it as a function of maraboutic ‘charisma’ in the sense of any distinctive qualities of the religious message or of the messenger himself. It is, rather, the ‘popular demand’ side of charisma which emerges as important, an aspect that must be understood in the context of the particular local implications of Serer ethnicity. Because a religious model has thus been adopted to address primarily secular concerns, the study supports the argument that the entire maraboutic system has been institutionalised as the prevailing means of organising societal concerns in Senegal. The case thus has significant implications not only forthe study of Senegalese Sufi movements but also for an understanding of the socio-political impact of Islam in the country.

Full textAbstract:
John Locke was a famous political philosopher in the 17th century. The theory of limited government proposed by Locke in the Second Treatise of Government has delivered a profound impact on the modern politics. Based on the theoretical foundation of liberalism, Locke argues that, for the purpose of defending the right to private property, only when the majority agree can we establish a government after signing the social contract and shifting from the state of nature to the political society. By analyzing the limitations of the source, affiliation and range of government power, this paper demonstrates the limitations of the limited government as the rule of law and the separation of powers on the inside, and the collapse of government and people’s revolution on the outside. In the process of modernizing the national governance system and governance capacity, it is necessary for developing countries to be fully confident in their political systems and absorb what is best from Locke’s theory so as to build a modern service-oriented government.

Full textAbstract:
Artistic Research (AR) in collective, industrial arts can find itself to be an intense balancing act: film and new media are expensive forms that rely on commercial expectations and industrial integration, while artistic experimentation flourishes in independence and creative freedom. Transposing the model of the independent artist to large-scale collective productions challenges our vision of art, affiliation and integrity. AR researchers in film and new media can have radically different practices: from industrial creative producers to one-person camera documentarists, from VR designers to screenwriters and 3D artists. While our potential for creation and innovation is similar, our expectations and abilities are as diverse as the cost of our projects. Our contribution spans questions of affiliation, authorship, production and speculation, with the aim to bring clarification on what can be expected for and of diverse AR researchers in film and new media, and to promote the concrete establishment of appropriate support and supervision.

Full textAbstract:
A photograph taken in 1896, the year of Miami's incorporation, circulated widely in periodicals of the time, and it came to symbolize the founding of the city in the local and national imagination (figure 1). “That picture has gone all over this country,” one of the men who posed for it recalled, “showing the start of Miami.” In the image seventeen men stand by the mouth of the Miami River, where workers were clearing the ground for the construction of the first tourist hotel, a building owned by a wealthy northern Protestant. For the historian, the carefully posed photograph is illuminating. Most important for the purposes of this essay, it offers hints about power relations in that urban frontier. Note the four white men dressed in their Sunday best who stand behind the workers and observe the scene. They were there that day because John Sewell, the white Baptist who supervised the crew, had hurried down the dirt street to invite "the boys" to get into the historic picture. For Sewell, “the boys” meant white mainline Protestants, each of whom had arrived relatively recently to seek his fortune.

Dissertação de Mestrado em Ciências Jurídico-Forenses apresentada à Faculdade de Direito<br>Com o presente trabalho pretendemos efetuar uma análise sobre a evolução da lei da nacionalidade portuguesa, nomeadamente no âmbito da atribuição da nacionalidade a filho de mãe portuguesa ou pai português, nascido no estrangeiro, bem como aos descendentes em 2º grau na linha reta de um cidadão português que não tenha perdido essa nacionalidade, ou seja aos netos de cidadãos portugueses nascidos no estrangeiro.Este ensaio partiu da aplicação dos dois princípios basilares que estão subjacentes à lei da nacionalidade que são o “ius solis” e o “ius sanguinis” e que permitem definir quem pode ser titular da nacionalidade portuguesa. É de salientar que ao longo dos tempos, estes dois princípios foram tendo importâncias diferentes, tendo-se dado mais ênfase ora a um, ora a outro, de acordo com os objetivos das políticas públicas de acolhimento e de integração de estrangeiros, sendo que a legislação que presentemente regulamenta a matéria da nacionalidade absorveu um misto dos dois critérios.Portanto, é de salientar, neste âmbito, a importância que o registo de nascimento estrangeiro tem no pedido de nacionalidade, assim a certidão de nascimento estrangeira terá que ser analisada de forma cuidadosa, para se verificar se os pressupostos que permitem a atribuição da nacionalidade se encontram reunidos face à luz da lei portuguesa pois como ao estabelecimento da filiação se aplica nos termos do artigo 56º do Código Civil a “lei pessoal do progenitor, à data do estabelecimento dessa mesma relação”, sem esquecer que essa filiação tem que se estabelecer na menoridade. Iremos abordar de forma sumária, os conceitos subjacentes ao estabelecimento da filiação e os efeitos que a mesma tem na atribuição originária da nacionalidade, tendo em conta a evolução histórica da legislação que regulamenta esta matéria, sabendo desde já que os instrumentos mais importantes são o Código Civil, o Código de Registo Civil e os diplomas próprios da nacionalidade.<br>The purpose of this work, is pretending to make an analysis of the portuguese´s nationality law evolution, namely in the scope of the nationality attribution to a son of portuguese mother or portuguese father born in a foreign country, and also to second straight descendants of a portuguese citizen, that didn´t lose the ownership of the portuguese nationality, which that means the grandsons of portuguese citizen born abroad-This academic paperwork starts with the application of two principles implicit in nationality law which are “ius solis” and “ius sanguinis”and these principles permits decided who can be portuguese citizen.Across the ages, these two rules have differents relevances, taken in consideration public policies of reception and integration of foreign people and the present nationality legislation have the combination of those two principles.Consequently, in this domain, the foreign birth registration has a big importance in the nationality request, so the birth certificate must be very carefully analyzed to verify that the purposes to give portuguese nationality are reunited because the paternity established affiliation, we apply the article 56th of the “Portuguese Civil Code”, which said that is “the progenitor personal law which is applied to the affiliation” without forgetting that link must be recognized in minority age.It will be mentioned, in a summarised way the concepts of establishment of parenthood and their effects on the portuguese nationality original acquisition, take into consideration the historical law evolution in this domain and the more important law instruments are “Portuguese Civil Code”, “Registration Civil Code” and the “nationality laws”.

Pina, Catarina Isabel da Costa. "Os afetos como critério de vinculação familiar no Direito da Família português." Master's thesis, 2020. http://hdl.handle.net/10362/111461.
Full textAbstract:
The present report focuses, essentially, on “affection” as one of the family bonding criteria and that, in view of the transformations of society that led to a new and broad interpretation of the concept of “family”, considering the admission of new forms of family and the principle of the child's best interest, it has been shown to be a determining factor in establishing affiliation, since the biological ties have ceased to be so, to establish the legal ties of affiliation.
Initially, a brief reference will be made to the evolution of the concept of "family" and the rise of affections in Portuguese Family Law. It will be observed, both in Portuguese Family Law and in the light of the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights, the inclusion of affection as one of the family bonding criteria.
On the other hand, using Brazilian Law, socio-affective affiliation will be emphasized, namely the possession of the status of a child, derived from the bonds of affection built in lasting family life, as a basis for establishing paternity and motherhood, always in view of the child's best interests.
Finally, it will be observed that, although Portuguese Law, since the 1977 Reform, express an interest in coinciding the legal truth with the biological truth, the biological truth is not absolute and that not all paternity or maternity results from biological bonds, since it is possible to identify several examples of manifestation of affection as a criterion for family ties, among the various exceptions to biological truth.
In view of the above, the possibility developed that socio-affective affiliation, especially the possession of the status of a child (presuppositions: “nomen”, “tractatus” and “fama”), derived from the bonds of affection built in lasting family life, could be recognized in the Portuguese legal system as a foundation for establishing paternity and maternity, but also to prevent the impugnation of affiliation, always taking into account the child's best interests.<br>O presente relatório incide, essencialmente, no “afeto” como um dos critérios de vinculação familiar e que, face às transformações da sociedade que conduziram a uma nova e ampla interpretação do conceito de “família”, considerando a admissão de novas formas de família e o princípio do superior interesse da criança, tem se vindo a demonstrar determinante para estabelecer a filiação, uma vez que os vínculos biológicos deixaram de o ser, para estabelecer os laços jurídicos de filiação.
Inicialmente, far-se-á uma breve alusão à ascensão dos afetos no Direito da Família Português. Observar-se-á, tanto no Direito da Família Português como à luz da jurisprudência do Tribunal Europeu dos Direitos Humanos, a inclusão do afeto como um dos critérios de vinculação familiar.
Por sua vez, recorrendo ao Direito Brasileiro, ressaltar-se-á a filiação socioafetiva, nomeadamente a posse de estado de filho, derivada dos laços de afeto construídos na convivência familiar duradoura, como fundamento para se estabelecer a paternidade e a maternidade, sempre tendo em vista o superior interesse da criança.
Por último, observar-se-á que, apesar de o Direito Português, desde a Reforma de 1977, manifestar o interesse de coincidir a verdade jurídica com a verdade biológica, esta última não é absoluta e que nem toda a paternidade ou maternidade resulta dos vínculos genéticos, pois é possível identificar vários exemplos de manifestação de afetos como critério de vinculação familiar, entre as várias exceções à verdade biológica.
Face ao exposto desenvolveu-se a possibilidade de a filiação socioafetiva, mormente a posse de estado de filho (pressupostos: “nomen”, “tractatus” e “fama”), derivada dos laços de afeto construídos na convivência familiar duradoura, poder vir a ser reconhecida no sistema jurídico português como fundamento para se estabelecer a paternidade e a maternidade, como também para obstar à impugnação da filiação, sempre tendo em consideração o superior interesse da criança.

This introductory chapter provides an overview of the book's study. This volume covers the novel in English in countries other than Britain and the United States over four and a half centuries. At the centre of this period is the British Empire, not merely in its political and territorial manifestations, but as a literary empire, processing and reconfiguring the English literary canon through the medium of the English language. The period encompasses satire, fantasy, migration narratives, the literature of dispersal and return, of the growth of empire, and of its lapse, that brings new modes of literary affiliation. Moreover, it sees, throughout the empire, the establishment of new communities of writers and readers, publishers, and booksellers.

Full textAbstract:
How parties structure their interaction with social groups is a key determinant of their capacity to provide linkage between the institutions of government and the public at large. This chapter investigates the extent to which modern political parties use formal measures to connect to relevant societal interests and strengthen their anchorage in society. The analysis centres on parties’ use of formal rules governing affiliation and representation to link with externally organized interests and parties’ establishment of sub-organizations with representation rights within the party. The chapter authors develop and test several hypotheses concerning cross-country and within-country sources of variation in formal linkage and test them empirically. In addition, they examine whether formal status and representation rights shape parties’ ability to represent descriptively the associated latent social interests focusing on the case of women and ethnic minorities.

Full textAbstract:
Although Georges Auric (1899–1983) is best remembered today for his affiliation with the Groupe des Six, his musical career was long, productive, complex, and intimately attuned to the realities of modern life. His polyvalent career—as a composer of concert, theatrical, ballet, popular, film, and television music; music critic; opera director; and arts administrator—reveals a diversity of engagements that speak to a reconfiguration of the role of the composer in the modern world. Auric was a product of his time, with deep connections to France’s artistic, social, and political elites. At the same time, he drew on his prestige and privilege to improve the country’s musical life in tangible ways, whether with regard to musical education and accessibility or to the establishment of fair copyright laws. He took artistic collaboration, already a hallmark of the short-lived Groupe des Six, to a level that surpassed any of the other members of that group. Diverging from the romantic trope of individual creation, Auric’s legacy troubles conventional ideas of what it means to be a composer.

Full textAbstract:
Occupy Wall Street (OWS) is a massive protest movement calling for radical social change and an end to unbridled corruption. OWS emerged in September 2011 in New York with highly confrontational demonstrations against the Wall Street banks, and a small encampment in the city’s financial district. Within weeks, hundreds of local camps emerged throughout the U.S., along with ongoing series of vehement, decentralized protest actions. Much to the chagrin of the American political establishment, OWS operates as an elusive and flexible, “leaderless” organization, without a centralized authority or party affiliation, and uses occupation as a primary form of protest. This paper looks at the ways in which the movements’ leaderless organization and egalitarian social vision were/are deeply influenced by anarchist principles like anti-authoritarianism (anti-statism), anti-capitalism, direct action, and prefiguration. It then discusses attempts by Occupy camps, such as those in New York, Philadelphia, and Oakland, to repossess spaces, rights, and other forms of social wealth within different urban contexts. It analyzes how the Occupy camps, as well as innovations like the General Assemblies, spokescouncils, and social media formations, are transforming urban landscapes and creating new forms of social and political engagement based on anarchist praxis.

Full textAbstract:
Conversatio, mutual conduct, had possessed loose affiliations with sermo in ancient and medieval times. During the Renaissance, conversatio shifted far closer to sermo and its constellation of cognate concepts. Stefano Guazzo elaborated an influential theory of civil conversation in his eponymous late-sixteenth-century dialogue, which reconceived conversatio in secular terms as the realm of society. This Italian conception of civil conversation then received a universalizing spin from the natural law jurisprudential tradition of Grotius and Pufendorf, transforming it into an amoral disposition toward sociability shared by all humanity. The long parallel tracks of sermo and conversatio now finally converged: sermo became conversation as conversatio became sociability. The convergence of sermo and conversatio made possible the establishment of a causal connection between the two concepts. This connection appeared viadoux commerce, the application of sociability to the realm of economics: sociability, by the means of economic self-interest, became the conceptual and historical predicate to conversation—and, as the Enlightenment progressively tied together manners with the civic humanist tradition, the predicate in turn for both virtue and liberty. Sociability thus at last substituted for Platonic love an amoral, entirely human motivation for conversation—the discourse of reason found its base in human passions.

Full textAbstract:
The Muhammad Avatāra: Salvation History, Translation, and the Making of Bengali Islam reveals the powerful role of vernacular translation in the Islamization of Bengal. Its focus is on the magnificent seventeenth-century Nabīvaṃśa of Saiyad Sultān, who lived in Arakanese-controlled Chittagong. Drawing upon the Arabo-Persian Tales of the Prophets genre, the Nabīvaṃśa (“Lineage of the Prophet”) retells the life of the Prophet Muhammad for the first time to Bengalis in their mother-tongue. This book delineates the challenges faced by the author in articulating the pre-eminence of Islam and its Arabian prophet in a land where multiple religious affiliations were common, and when Gauṛīya Vaiṣṇava missionary activity was at its zenith. Sultān played a pioneering role in setting into motion various lexical, literary, performative, theological, and, ultimately, ideological processes that led to the establishment of a distinctively Bengali Islam in east Bengal. At the heart of this transformation lay the persuasiveness of translation on a new Islamic frontier. The Nabīvaṃśa not only kindled a veritable translation movement of Arabo-Persian Islamic literature into Bangla, but established the grammar of creative translation that was to become canonical for this regional tradition. This text-critical study lays bare the sophisticated strategies of translation used by a prominent early modern Muslim Bengali intellectual to invite others to his faith.

This chapter discusses Norman Vincent Peale’s life and career as a Methodist minister during the years 1932–1942. It first describes Peale’s move to New York in 1932 during the darkest days of the Depression, hoping to develop an innovative ministry around a message of practical Christianity and fight the New Deal. It then considers Peale’s decision to change his religious affiliation to the Reformed Church in America and his tenure as pastor of Marble Collegiate Church, along with the early challenges he encountered there. It also examines how Peale used the internal polarized struggles of Protestantism, real and imagined, as the special focus of his public platform. Finally, it analyses changes in Peale’s New York ministry and the growth of Marble Church under his watch; his establishment of a religio-psychiatric outpatient clinic that later became known as Institutes of Religion and Health; and his ministry to businessmen.

In particular, the chapter compares it to the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA), Pioneer Women, and the Mizrachi Women's Organization of America, and also with WIZO, the Women's International Zionist Organization. Through these comparisons, the chapter aims to better understand Hadassah's sources of strength. In addition to these, Hadassah drew strength from its apolitical character. The avoidance in principle of any affiliation with any political party, either in the United States or in Israel, was based on the central objective of Hadassah to be a popular, mass-based Zionist movement of Jewish women. This motive was coupled with the accepted view at the time of its establishment that political involvement was not appropriate for women. Indeed, to this day the largest women's organizations, Jewish and non-Jewish alike, are mainly involved in humanitarian work, and declare themselves non-partisan.

The Introduction contextualizes the Armenian population in Lebanon. It distinguishes between Armenians who lived in Lebanon prior to the division of the Ottoman Empire, in the wake of the Armenian Genocide, and after the establishment of French and British mandatory rule in the Levant. In addition, it outlines the ecclesiastic, class, linguistic, and political gamut of the Armenian population in Lebanon. It analyzes how Armenians organized themselves according to the villages and centers in the Ottoman Empire that they hailed from and reformed their political ideologies, affiliations, and ecclesiastic connections resulting in the establishment of mini-enclaves within Armenian-populated neighborhoods in Lebanon. The introduction also positions the book within four fields: histories of Armenians, Lebanon, the Cold War in the Middle East, and the Diaspora Studies. The innovation of linking these fields together through the themes of identification, belonging, and articulating citizenship produces fresh readings of the time period. This intervention draws attention to experiences that established scholarship does not adequately tackle, increasing the possible ways and methods to study and approach the region, its inhabitants, and historical time frame.

Full textAbstract:
The history of genetic counseling as a clinical practice ultimately has its roots in eugenics. Although medical geneticists distanced themselves from eugenic ideology after World War II, that separation was sometimes more in name than practice. The history of the genetic counseling profession does not have direct connections to eugenics, although the profession has since its inception been intimately connected with medical genetics and medical geneticists. Key historical moments in the emergence of genetic counseling as an independent profession include the creation of specialized master’s-level training programs beginning in 1969 at Sarah Lawrence College, the formation of a professional society (the National Society of Genetic Counselors), a professional certification process governed by genetic counselors separate from medical geneticists, the establishment of a professional journal, and working affiliations with a wide range of clinicians beyond medical geneticists such as obstetricians, oncologists, surgeons, cardiologists, and neurologists.
