Nurturing Authority     

Tanya Muscat 《Journalism Practice》2018,12(2):220-235

When considering the role of local journalism in a networked media environment, it is crucial to examine how audiences attribute news with the power to define social knowledge. In particular, television news programs need to appeal to audiences by reinforcing a sense of local journalistic authority to assert the parameters of who and what is worthy of coverage. This article presents the findings from interviews with a range of commercial television news viewers in Sydney, Australia. It positions viewership in the context of people’s wider engagement with news, and in relation to their interpersonal and digital social interactions. The paper argues that local audiences have conflicting attitudes to the role of television news, both contesting and re-inscribing the programs with the power to demarcate social, political, and cultural knowledge. It traces how local audiences challenge the ability of news to convey boundaries within the community through processes of exclusion, connecting the contestations to the lived experiences of the individuals. It identifies that television news programs nurture journalistic authority in terms of their local relevance, and it contributes insights on the significance of local news by engaging with the means by which audiences themselves attach social power to journalism.  相似文献   

Social relations as predictors of achievement in math in Kenyan primary schools     

《International Journal of Educational Development》2014

In sub-Saharan Africa, where there is limited financial and human capital, it is important to examine how social relationships may serve to promote or undermine human capital formation. However, little is known about the contributions of social relations to human capital development, especially in terms of academic achievement in Africa. This study examined how variations in key aspects of social relations among teachers; between teachers and students; between principals, teachers, parents and students affect achievement in mathematics among sixth graders in 70 schools in six districts in Kenya. We modeled mathematics achievement as a function of measures of social perception and support while adjusting for school-, classroom- and student level background characteristics. We found that net of teacher subject knowledge and background characteristics, teachers who display commitment to teaching by always correcting homework and keeping students engaged during math lessons had their students performing better. Teacher absenteeism and lack of interest in teaching were negatively associated with performance in math. Lack of parental involvement in the classroom also had negative effects on grades. At the school level, the level of engagement of the principal, measured by supervision of teachers and good interpersonal interactions with parents had positive effects on math achievement. Schools where parents provided material and financial support had better grades, while student delinquency and absenteeism negatively affected grades.  相似文献   

No harmless child labor: The effect of child labor on academic achievement in francophone Western and Central Africa     

《International Journal of Educational Development》2021

This study empirically examines the effect of child labor on academic achievement in 10 francophone Western and Central African countries. The data were taken from the Programme d’Analyse des Systèmes Educatifs de la CONFEMEN and comprised characteristics of 25,288 grade six students across 1803 schools. Two-stage least squares analysis highlights that child labor undermines academic achievement regardless of subject, gender, and age. It lowers reading and mathematics scores for both genders and for children under 12 and over 13 years. Child labor therefore hinders human capital accumulation in African countries, and it takes place at the cost of future prosperity.  相似文献

论转让定价手段对企业全球化经营的作用     

王学鸿 《楚雄师范学院学报》2001,16(1):128-129

转让定价是跨国公司实现全球利润最大化绩效目标的重要手段。我国对外开放不能只引进处来直接投资(FDI)，我国企业还应开展国际化生产经营。我国企业国际化经营可以借鉴跨国公司转让定价策略，扬其所长，避其所短。但为促进我国企业国际化的进程，企业对转让价格的作用必须有比较清醒的认识。  相似文献   

社会资本与文化资本视野下的现代学校制度变革   总被引：11，自引：0，他引：11  

盛冰 《教育研究》2006,(1)

社会阶层与教育获得之间存在着密切的联系。由于社会分层、社会流动以及家庭结构的变迁,导致人们之间社会资本与文化资本的差别日益扩大,从而使教育不平等问题愈加凸显。在某种程度上,一个好的学校制度能够降低出身的不平等或者降低家庭背景的重要性,因此,当今学校制度改革的一个重要方面就是弥补人们之间社会资本与文化资本方面的差异,即通过建立“公平教室”、创建“功能共同体”、改革考试制度等,以促进教育平等。  相似文献   

全球化语境下的跨国公司及其对它的争论——一个认识当代资本主义的视角     

向红 《平原大学学报》2007,24(6):1-4

作为全球新资本主义组织的中心,跨国公司起着十分重要的作用。资本的特性与跨国公司推动的全球化在实现资本世界一切的目标上相同。就本质而言,全球化就是资本全球化。资本全球化、跨国公司推动的全球化、全球资本主义化在本质上相通。全球化的支持者与全球化的反对者关于跨国公司的争论,实际上涉及到人类需要什么样的全球化以及全球化该由谁来主导等深层次理论问题。  相似文献

“人力资本理论”非经济学贡献解读   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

孟丽菊  王续琨 《辽宁师范大学学报(社会科学版)》2006,29(4):64-67

人力资本理论通过对经济增长方式的重新阐释,建立了经济学研究的新范式,开创了教育研究的新领域———教育经济学的诞生。然而20世纪后期人力理论却遭遇了来自人力资本理论学派内部的批评与挑战。基于此,从学科对话的角度对“人力资本投资理论”内涵的边界限度进行了更深入的挖掘和剖析,从而对众多被“人力资本理论”挑战者所忽视的思想和观点进行阐释,并以此表明这些思想是极具理论价值和现实意义的。  相似文献
