Dimensions of cosmopolitanism and their influence on political consumption: an analysis focused on Spanish consumers

The purpose of this study was to confirm the hypothesis that political consumption – a form of consumerism whose importance has increased during the past few years – can be considered a form of critical action, and that cosmopolitanism contributes to its development. The main objective was, first, to analyse an unexplored dimension of political consumption and, second, to obtain a measurement proposal for what some authors have called ordinary cosmopolitanism. The study, based on a survey, was divided into three sections. The first section offers a theoretical introduction to the study proposal. The second describes the hypothesis and the data analysis strategy, and proposes an operationalization of cosmopolitanism in three dimensions – symbolic cosmopolitanism, experiential cosmopolitanism and moral cosmopolitanism – which have been obtained by means of the application of categorical principal components analysis. By applying one‐way analysis of variance and Tukey's test, the third section shows the existence of significantly higher scores in these three dimensions for those individuals who have bought or boycotted products for ethical, political or environmental reasons. Finally, an ordinary least squares regression analysis was performed to test the association between cosmopolitanism and political consumerism, controlling the effect of the main socio‐demographic variables. The study confirms the initial hypothesis; therefore, political consumption could be considered a type of consumerism that is clearly related to cosmopolitanism.

THE VALUE OF TIGER SHARK DIVING WITHIN THE ALIWAL SHOAL MARINE PROTECTED AREA: A TRAVEL COST ANALYSIS

Using on‐site survey data collected via the administration of a questionnaire to 197 respondents during the period stretching from January 2007 to December 2007 from the Aliwal Shoal Marine Protected Area, this study estimates and compares an ordinary least squares and two Poisson count data models of recreational tiger shark diving demand. The Poisson model corrected for endogenous stratification and truncation provided the best results. It was concluded that in 2007, the consumer surplus per person per tiger shark dive was R1,136, and the total consumer surplus per annum was R2,080,925.

浅析数控车床刀尖圆弧半径补偿

在应用数控车床车削工件时由于有端面、圆锥、及各种曲线等形状,加工中会出现各种形状误差,为了避免形状误差的发生,在加工工件中必须掌握刀尖圆弧半径补偿功能,即刀尖圆弧半径补偿方向的判别,刀补的建立、补偿、取消过程。文章通过加工中产生的形状误差分析,与实例结合,阐述了刀尖圆弧半径补偿在加工时的应用和对工件质量的影响。     

地方普通高校内涵式发展战略研究

我国地方普通高校在经历了普遍的规模扩张之后,面临着如何实现质量提高的考验,“以促进公平和提高质量为重点”的内涵式发展道路成为其必然选择。置身国外名校、国内重点院校和民办、高职院校同台竞技的国内高教市场,地方普通高校在资金、生源和人才竞争中都承受着巨大压力,这就需要他们立足本校和本地区的实际,走“特色”办学之路,在提高内部管理水平的同时,借助相关扶助政策,走出适合自己的内涵式发展之路。     

国有企业普通员工激励机制建设研究

近些年来普通员工的激励模式和方法逐渐为我国国有企业管理层所重视,但在实践中,仍然存在诸如激励形式和对象单一化、约束和评价机制不完善等问题。逐步降低保健的功能、提高激励功能已成为国有企业员工激励机制改革的方向。国有企业应按照对实现企业的战略意图和战略目标贡献的大小来取酬设计和完善激励机制建设。
