What Happens in Organizations When Enhancing Organizational Culture Toward Being More Conscious?

The purpose of this study is to offer a better comprehension of what happens in organizations when enhancing organizational culture through consciousness by linking the market-oriented ecosystem variables and analyzing their relationship with a conscious organization.Design and methodology:Two questionnaires were used to test the hypotheses,the market-oriented ecosystem 38-item(Yeung&Ulrich,2019),and the conscious organization model 7-item adaptation(Sisoda,2018).Pearson correlations were calculated to measure the strength of the linear relationship among the variables involved in each one of the hypotheses,and coefficient alpha(coefficient𝛼)was used to analyze the reliability,to measure the internal consistency of the scales.Relevant findings:Context,ecosystem organizational structure,governance,and people ecosystem were positively correlated to a conscious organization.The originality of this study is based on use of the interaction among the variables of the market-oriented ecosystem model(continuous changing context,ecosystem organizational structure,governance,and people ecosystem)and a conscious organizational culture.Finally,the practical implications of having high levels of the market-oriented ecosystem variables predict high level of consciousness in organizations.These variables require careful consideration,a proactive planning process to enhance organizational culture through consciousness.

Research on the Problematic Consciousness of Western Translation Theories

From sticking to certain western translating theory to combining western translating theories to eastern translating theories,the problematic consciousness keeps implicit on the way to seeking translating rules. However,when researching on the problematic consciousness of the western translation theories,the paper finds that the translation theories of the western linguistics aim to strengthen the western centrism thought;the translation theories of the western culture attempt to deconstruct the western centrism thought through translation. The ideology,time and region of the problems concerning translation lead to the distinctiveness of translation theories,reducing its general characteristics. As a result,the construction of the modern Chinese translation theories must be based on the present translation problems instead of adopting the western translation theories or combining the western and eastern translation theories.

以文化之名:民国时期政学两界对“中国式边疆”现代化的思考

民国时期政学两界对“边疆”的界定除了基于政治与地理意义外,更多考察其“文化”元素,普遍认为如不从“文化”着眼,无法道尽“边疆的涵义”。这是一种典型的“中国式边疆”,形成了“中国边疆”独特的“边疆性”,由此中国边政内涵也极为丰富。“边疆性”之形成,既然主要来自“文化”因素,那么边疆现代化的实质就是要消除“边疆性”,让其失去“文化上的意义”。所谓“文化”,包括物质文化和精神文化。消除“边疆性”并非抹杀文化,而是通过发展经济和增进认同,按李安宅的观点,就是要通过物质和精神的“区域分工”,也就是要实现边疆现代化及其与内地的一体化。
