    Transforming corporate social responsibilities:Toward an intellectual activist research agenda for micro-CSR research

    Get PDF
    In their recent essay, Gond and Moser (2019) have proposed that micro-CSR research has the potential to “matter” and transform business practices as it engages closely with how individuals in companies work with and experience corporate social responsibility (CSR). But can micro-CSR research in its current form realize this transformative potential and serve social justice? Adopting an intellectual activist position, we argue that the transformative potential of micro-CSR is severely limited by its predominant focus on CSR as defined, presented, and promoted by companies themselves, thereby serving to sustain the hegemony of the business case for CSR, promoting narrow interests and maintaining managerial control over corporate responsibilities. We propose that micro-CSR researchers broaden the scope of their research to cultivate the potential of alternative ideas, voices, and activities found in organizational life. In so doing we lay out a research agenda that embraces employee activism, listens to alternative voices, and unfolds confrontational, subversive, and covert activities. In the hope of inspiring other micro-CSR researchers to explore these unconventional paths, we also offer suggestions as to how we can pursue them through empirical research

    Показано, що основними критеріями патоморфологічної діагностики ензоотичної пневмонії у свиней є зміни, характерні для десквамативної пневмонії з геморагічним акцентом або інтерстиціальної пневмонії і деструкція епітелію бронхів. Завершенням хвороби є пневмофіброз як результат продуктивного запалення.При патоморфологічному дослідженні імунокомпетентних органів виявляли: структурні еквіваленти нормальної імунної відповіді; морфологічні ознаки порушень імунної відповіді внаслідок пригнічення функції органів імуногенезу під час захворювання на ензоотичну пневмонію (вторинний імунодефіцит). Такі зміни можна ідентифікувати як прояви декомпенсації імунної відповіді, які суттєво впливають на подальший перебіг інфекційного захворювання, оскільки відомо, що дефіцит клітинного імунітету характеризується рецидивами інфекцій різної етіології, а також генералізацією процесу.Показано, что основными критериями патоморфологической диагностики энзоотической пневмонии у свиней являются изменения характерные для десквамативной пневмонии с геморрагическим акцентом или интерстициальной пневмонии и деструкция эпителия бронхов. Завершением болезни является пневмофиброз, как результат продуктивного воспаления.При патоморфологическом исследовании иммунокомпетентных органов выявляли: структурные эквиваленты нормального иммунного ответа; морфологические признаки нарушений иммунного ответа вследствие угнетения функции органов иммуногенеза во время заболевания энзоотической пневмонией (вторичный иммунодефицит). Такие изменения идентифицируются как проявления декомпенсации иммунного ответа, которые существенно влияют на дальнейшее течение инфекционного заболевания, поскольку известно, что дефицит клеточного иммунитета характеризуется рецидивами инфекций разной этиологии, а также генерализацией процесса.It was shown that the basic criteria of pathomorphological diagnostics of enzootic pneumonia in pigs are changes, characteristic for desquamative pneumonia with a hemorragic accent or interstitial pneumonia and destruction of epithelium of bronchial tubes. Completion of illness is pneumofibrosis, as a result of productive inflammation.At pathomorphological investigation of immunological competent organs established: the structural equivalents of normal immune answer;  morphological symptoms of violations of immune answer by suppressing of function of organs of immunogenesis during the disease of enzootic pneumonia (secondary immunodeficiency). Such changes can be identified as manifestations of decompensation of immune response, which affect importantly on the following development of infectious disease, because it is known, that deficit of cellular immunity is characterized by relapses of different infections and the generalization of the process as well

    Literary Work as «Language Disease»: the Theme of Language in Modern Belarusian Literature

    У перыяд мультыкультурнага, полімоўнага існавання чалавека трансфармуюцца мастацкія ўяўленні пра моўныя вобразы твораў. Для беларускай літаратуры характэрны дзве галоўныя тэндэнцыі ўвасаблення тэмы мовы: распрацоўка літаратурнай нармаванай мовы на аснове бытавога ўжывання і іранічна парадыйнае адлюстраванне недахопаў беларускамоўнай сацыяльнай камунікацыі. У творах сучасных беларускіх пісьменнікаў усё часцей вызначаюцца матывамі «смерці мовы» і «пошуку мовы». У сувязі з тым, што сённяшняя сітуацыя з моваю выглядае як драматычныя стасункі розных лінгвістычных сістэм і моўных культур стылістыка твораў пра мову набывае іранічна-сатырычны характар. Напрыканцы ХХ стагоддзя і напачатку ХХІ стало ўжо традыцыяй выкарыстоўваць лексічныя, фанетычныя, граматычныя памылкі як характарыстыкі часу, беларускага топасу.During the period of multicultural, multilingual human existence, artistic ideas about the linguistic images of works are transformed. Belarusian literature is characterized by two main trends in the embodiment of the theme of language: the development of literary standardized language on the basis of everyday use and ironic and parody reflection of the shortcomings of Belarusian-language social communication. In the works of modern Belarusian writers are increasingly determined by the motives of «death of language» and «search for language». Due to the fact that today’s situation with language looks like a dramatic relationship between different linguistic systems and language cultures, the stylistics of works about language becomes ironic and satirical. At the end of the XX century and the beginning of the XXI it became a tradition to use lexical, phonetic, grammatical errors as characteristics of time, Belarusian topos

    The article considers the stages of building structures calculations during the pre-computer period and after the introduction of computers into the engineering process. The article describes the functions and capabilities of modern calculated software systems used to improve the automation rate and the quality of designing and erecting buildings. The possible problems of calculated software complexes are clarified, and attention is focused on the lack of the information base about methods of forming frameworks calculated schemes in software complexes. Examples confirm the analyzing necessity calculation results in software packages. Conclusions in further research about calculated software systems using are formulated

    Sequel as A Type of Metatext Practice: Philosophical Perspective

    Get PDF
    The article considers the phenomenon of the sequel as a type of metatext practice and as an integral component in the chain of knowledge transfer. The reproducibility of the original text is thus correlated with "unlimited" semiosis / interpretation. The phenomenon of metatext is closely related to the functioning of secondary texts, since any metatext belongs to the category of secondary texts. By secondary, we mean text created as a result of processing the original, primary text.The sequel acts as a secondary text, and the text that interprets the main text. The relevance of the research, therefore, is related to such philosophical and linguistic problems as reference and interpretation. The popularity of sequels written by modern authors to Jane Austen's novels can be seen as a particular manifestation of the general "fashion" for secondariness. Consciously or not, modern "successors" of her novels tend to repeat her style, even if they simply borrow the characters and plot of the novels. Within the framework of semiotics, the sequel can be considered as a "sign" that displays its referent - the novels of Austen. However (from the point of view of stylistics), the sequel cannot be an exact copy of its original, since it is invariably created in other socio-cultural conditions. A sequel as a sign can display its referent (novel) in three main types: index, icon, symbol, and their combinations. Thus, the article analyzes each of the ways of display and concludes that it is impossible to symbolically reflect the proto-text on the example of the novel "Pride and prejudice" and its sequels written by contemporary authors. One of the results of the work is the assumption that the ontological status of the new "possible world" in the sequel and therefore its communicative success, are in direct correlation with the way of referential representation of the original
