Abstract:
Abstract The means by which the Shi jing was transmitted were, primarily, written texts as well as oral recitation and singing, and the textual features formed by these processes were often quite varied. During the pre-Qin period, written texts were frequently “open documents”; therefore, discrepancies among texts do not necessarily indicate distinctions of relative quality. Moreover, texts with different features do not necessarily belong to different textual systems. Therefore, one should adopt a holistic, open-minded attitude toward early textual forms of the Shi jing, and avoid hastily proceeding from discrepancies of format to rash judgments that they belong to different texts.

Abstract:
This study identifies behaviours and perceptions of the individuals involved that affect grievance resolutions. Based on conflict research, the study proposes that cooperative goals promote the direct, open-minded consideration of opposing views which leads to quality solutions efficiently developed. Management and union representatives in two large Western Canadian forest product companies were interviewed about grievances they had handled that were and were not settled within their committee. They first described in detail a recent, significant grievance and then answered specific questions to code the incident. Structural-equation results and the analysis ofthe qualitative data suggest that cooperative goals induce the open-minded discussion of diverse views, which in turn results in high-quality, integrative solutions. However, with competitive goals, managers and employees interacted close-mindedly and were unable to agree upon integrative solutions efficiently. If replicated, the framework developed can help structure cooperative interdependence and guide skill training in grievance handling.

Abstract:
Teams are increasingly recognized as critical for strategy, innovation, and other key organizational activities. This study used the theory of cooperation and competition to identify conditions that promote student team effectiveness in Hong Kong university undergraduate strategic management courses. Results from 70 teams across 12 classes indicate that groups with cooperative goals engaged in the open-minded constructive controversy; teams with independent goals avoided open discussion. Teams with a high level of constructive controversy rated themselves as effective; these teams also were rated as giving high quality presentations as measured by instructors’ marks but this result was not statistically significant. These results suggest that structuring cooperative teams can help students perform well in the classroom and may help prepared them to work in the emerging team organization.

Abstract:
AbstractIslamic centrism (Wasaiyya) is commonly presented as an open-minded and dialogue-oriented form of Islamism. This article questions that view by analyzing texts written by two prominent centrists: Muammad ‘Ammāra and Fahmī Huwaydī. Focusing on rhetorical techniques, the article argues that their texts are characterized by aggressive polemics not conducive to pluralist public debate. While relying heavily on barrages of rhetorical questions and implicit arguments, they avoid serious discussion of difficult issues. These characteristics of their texts are brought out by a discourse analysis based on modern text linguistics, specifically Functional Grammar as developed by Michael Halliday. This approach to Islamism is new and helps explaining why centrism, despite its professed open-mindedness, has failed both to defuse the high ideological tension in contemporary Egyptian debates about Islam in society and to contribute to bringing those debates forward.

Full text
Abstract:
Combining theories of social motives, goal interdependence, and conflict management, this study theorized a model in which interdepartmental goal interdependence affects conflict outcomes between different departments through open-minded discussion dynamics adopted by employees from different departments in the organization. This study also proposes that social motives moderate the link between inter-departmental goal interdependence and open-minded discussion. A sample of 133 employees from different business organizations in China were interviewed to recall a critical incident when they had a conflict with their coworker from different departments. SEM results and other analysis results support the hypotheses that cooperative interdepartmental goal interdependence and competitive goal interdependence are antecedents to employees engaging in open-minded discussion in the context of interdepartmental collaboration, and that open-minded discussion in turn influences conflict outcomes, i.e. task accomplishment, relationship strengthening, and future collaboration. Results further suggest that employee’s pro-social motive moderates the relationship between competitive goal interdependence and open-minded discussion, and that proself motive moderates the relationship between cooperative goal interdependence and open-minded discussion. Findings also suggest that practitioners promote effective interdepartmental collaboration by strengthening their prosocial motive when perceiving competitive goal and proself motive when perceiving cooperative goal, setting cooperative interdepartmental goal interdependence, and handling conflict through open-minded discussion. The study contributes to conflict management literature as well as the goal interdependence theory in the organizational behavior literatures.

Abstract:
This chapter argues for a deeper intellectual engagement between Grattius and Virgil’s Aeneid than has been posited by some previous scholars, who argue that Grattius borrows words and phrases from Virgil in a somewhat sporadic and magpie-like fashion. The discussion focuses upon key hunting passages and hunter figures in the epic: the figure of Camilla, Aeneas as hunter, the Trojans’ stay on the Strophades, and Allecto’s incitement of the war in Latium. The investigation remains open-minded on the relative chronology of these two works, and entertains fruitful readings irrespective of the ‘direction of travel’ of the interaction between the texts.

Abstract:
This article begins by defending the so-called Proposition 1, which claims that for the linguist Arabic is the most interesting language in the world. It then describes the handbook’s scope and choice of topics, followed by a discussion of the real world of research on Arabic. It suggests that the study of a language must be more than the sum of its parts. However, as far as Arabic goes, a holistic linguistic tradition remains an unrealized desideratum. A number of factors continue to militate against this development, including the fact that Arabic is a very large language, the stovepiping characteristic of contemporary academia and the clash of academic and cultural traditions. Finally, the article discusses how the only approach that does justice to Proposition 1 is one grounded in radically open-minded empiricism.

Full text
Abstract:
AbstractDue to the cyclic or systemic nature of both aquaponics and organic production, organic certification appears to be a natural step for a researcher, system designer or commercial-oriented aquaponics producer to engage in. However, the underlying principles and justifications of aquaponics and organic production differ considerably between respectively a technological- and a soil-based understanding of nutrient cycles and long-term sustainability in food production. These principles are confirmed in both the organic regulation regime of the EU and USA, and presently leave the question ambiguously open as to whether aquaponics as a food production system can be recognized and certified as organic. Despite an openness in the organic regulation for new knowledge, adaptations and innovations, the organic sector itself has shown a reluctance to recognize more knowledge-based intensive speciality crops and technologies. This is particularly difficult with respect to small organic sub-sectors such as horticulture and aquaculture production. Both are very specific subsystems of the agricultural sector, where aquaponics potentially would belong at the intersection between organic greenhouse horticulture and organic aquaculture. Organically certified aquaponics would therefore need to establish a niche within the organic sector. So in order to move forward, there is a great need for a more serious but open-minded exchange and discussion among the aquaponics and organic sub-sectors themselves to explore the potential but also limitations of their respective production models. However, between the two food production systems, there should be room for debate with a view to finding new and feasible roles for aquaponics in the organic community.

Abstract:
This study takes issue with Samuel P. Huntington’s identification of the Chinese Communists as “Confucians” and discussion of contemporary China in terms of Confucianism. It gives a brief account of how the Chinese Confucian elite—the best-known reform-minded Confucians—responded, mostly positively, to Western civilization when China encountered the West in recent centuries. The encounter is discussed under the three headings of religion, science, and democracy. “Sinic civilization” is demonstrated to have been remarkably open to foreign influence. The essay concludes that it is not Confucianism but Communism that inhibits China's development of democracy.

Abstract:
Psychotherapy integration has become a well-established and influential movement in mental health. In this chapter, the authors explore where psychotherapy integration may be headed in the areas of theory, practice, research, and training, and as a formal movement. The authors hope to advance discussion about future directions that seem particularly promising. As an indication of therapeutic flexibility, the authors believe that the most valuable aspects of integration may prove to be (1) the enthusiastic, open-minded stance of the integrative therapist who (2) is willing to change his or her approach in order to be responsive to a patient’s needs.

Abstract:
James Marriott’s close reading of Neil Marshall’s The Descent is a gem of accessible psychoanalytic film theory. Speaking as a reader of many texts on horror, it seems to me that psychoanalytical writing on the subject can often stray into aridity, dissertation-speak, convoluted argument and counter-argument and, worst of all, the dogmatic assertion of psychoanalysis as the primary index of truth. This book, however, is meticulous, open-minded and immensely readable. What distinguishes it is Marriott’s clarity of engagement and his readiness to acknowledge branching points of view. There is no need to worry here about abstruse jargon, or the tendency – endemic for a while in psychoanalytic treatises on horror – to neglect the film under discussion in favour of plucking at some ingrown Freudian hair....

Abstract:
The purpose of this chapter is twofold: to examine the political position of academic librarianship in the context of recent changes in English Higher Education and to explore existing and emergent moments of radical educational possibility. Firstly, we argue for critical attention being paid to the university library – a site often perceived as self-evident, neutral, predictable – and highlight ways in which the work of the library has been affected by processes of neoliberalisation. Secondly, we investigate Radical Librarians Collective (RLC), an open, horizontalist organisation of library workers and supporters, as a potential site through which to counter these developments and foster radical alternatives. RLC’s successes are primarily within its aims to provide solidarity, space for discussion, and mutual aid nationally between like-minded library workers, and its support for everyday workplace practices of resistance. We conclude with suggestions for the collective’s development which focus on structure and local action.

Abstract:
The present study seeks to understand intercultural communication patterns, characteristics, and styles of team members that engage in virtual collaboration with people from diverse backgrounds known as global virtual team (GVT). Twenty respondents were interviewed in order to develop a rich understanding of the intercultural communication and styles within a GVT, based on Edward Hall's cultural dimensions. The results reveal that GVT members from high context cultures demonstrate indirect communication styles, use non-verbal approaches, and employ silence and polite gestures in certain situations, while low context GVT members are more prone to direct and straightforward communication styles with many verbal responses in online team discussion. In essence, the findings provide key implication to global managers: be prepared to work with cultural diversity in terms of being open-minded, develop a high level of tolerance, and become culturally sensitive to different approaches and preferences of communication styles as employed by team members when working at a distance.

Abstract:
This chapter queries why would the vulnerable adopt nationalism as their preferred strategy. It provides a detailed discussion about the economic crisis and crisis of identity. The chapter argues that the roots of this state of affairs are to be found somewhere at the very end of the last century — a growing sense of self-satisfaction led liberal democratic nation-states to passivity. The chapter also elaborates the significant change that happened in schools and academic institutions which were no longer called on to make and remake the national narrative but rather to be critical, open-minded, and pluralistic. It then shifts to review how the vulnerable found themselves at the bottom of the social heap after having lost their protected social status. It illustrates how the poor all over the world are stereotyped in similar ways. The chapter discusses the implications of the elimination of class from the social and the political discourse. It then examines the strong affinity between class and national choices.

Abstract:
The purpose of research is to acquire knowledge. In pure fields such as philosophy or science, the pursuit of knowledge is ideally an open-minded affair engaged in for its own sake. In other activities such as applied research or industrial development, the inquiring mind seeks out new knowledge to support specific objectives. The open-ended nature of research endeavors and their lack of obvious solutions and promising avenues usually qualify them as difficult problems. This chapter explores a number of domain-independent issues and techniques for pursuing research in various disciplines. For the sake of concreteness, much of our discussion in this chapter focuses on the academic environment of graduate research. However, most of the topics and approaches pertain as well to research in other settings, whether a government laboratory or a corporate marketing office. The newcomer to the research enterprise tends to have a simple view of what research entails. He initially believes that following a few suggestions from the advisor will lead to demonstrable results, a series of advances that can be measured by the hour or week. He has a tacit belief that progress will ensue automatically over time, much like attending a hamburger stand, raking autumn leaves, or solving homework problems. How could he believe otherwise? He has little or no prior experience with difficult problems of the magnitude that now face him. Perhaps the most important thing he will learn in the first year or so is the environment of research. Addressing difficult problems requires a new mind-set, a willingness to explore new horizons, maintain an open mind, appreciate small insights, and even enjoy the steady stream of failures as well as successes. Learning to conduct research systematically will be the most important aspect of his education in the first year. If the research effort spans a planning horizon of about two years, the indoctrination will occur in conjunction with an orientation phase during the first half-year, a period for defining the problem and gathering relevant information.

Abstract:
Since 2000, I have been coordinating a web-based Virtual Exchange (VE) project, Project Ibunka. Ibunka means different cultures in Japanese. It aims to provide opportunities for authentic interaction among English as a Foreign Language (EFL) and English as a Second Language (ESL) learners all over the world. By the end of our last project, Project Ibunka 2018, more than 6,600 students from 22 different countries had participated in this project. The Asia-Pacific countries, such as Japan, China, Taiwan, South Korea, Indonesia, the US, Argentina, and others, have always played an active role in Project Ibunka. Though not so often, participants had taken up international controversies, such as territorial disputes, wartime responsibility, compensation for war victims and survivors, and others. Fortunately, the messages posted did not result in fruitless debate among participants. These issues can sometimes be seen to be too sensitive to be taken up in VE. However, the study and discussion of such issues are inevitable if we are to promote mutual understanding especially in the Asia-Pacific region. In my article, I would like to show how VE language teachers and students can take an acceptable, open-minded stance in VE, free from any stereotypes and prejudices. Teachers should set a goal of multicultural understanding and encourage students to gain insights using conflict resolution approaches. They also should push students to reconsider their own values from the standpoint of basic human needs.
