Business groups and environmental violations: evidence from China
Full text linkAlthough, in the modern era, stakeholders put pressure on firms to engage in environmental friendly practices, yet collaborative arrangements in the shape of business group affiliations may prove a double-edged sword. Accordingly, this study examines the impact of such collaborative arrangements on firm's environmental violations. On one hand, this affiliation can better pursue environmental policies and regulations because of their higher political or social visibility and reduce environmental infractions. Conversely, higher political legitimacy may derive from engaging in environmental violations. Using a unique sample from China comprising 6,860 firm-year observations over the 2010 to 2020 time period, we find that business group affiliation increases environmental violations, implying that stronger political legitimacy provides them relaxation in strictly following environmental regulations in comparison to standalone firms. We also find that this nexus is more pronounced when the affiliated firms have poor shareholder and board monitoring. These findings are helpful for policymakers/regulators concerning the initiative's evaluation regarding sustainable development and ecological protection
Asian business and management: review and future directions
No full textThis century has been proclaimed the Asian century, as industrialised countries such as Japan, Singapore, and South Korea, along with rapidly emerging nations such China and India, have contributed to worldwide economic growth. In response, research has analysed the reasons why Asian business and management have found such success. Based on a bibliometric analysis of Asian Business & Management (ABM), a premier journal devoted to Asian management, here we examine the performance of the research constituents, social structure, and intellectual structure of 331 scholarly papers, which sheds light on the growing influence of ABM through six major knowledge clusters: corporate social responsibility; business management in emerging markets; corporate governance; internationalization; political and business ties; and organization culture and performance. Temporal analysis reveals the emergence of strategy and human resource management as a distinct knowledge cluster and the increasing importance of China as a research context and producer. Based on this analysis, we propose future research directions
Investigation of Slurry Erosion in Pipeline Materials
No full textME, MEDErosion wear is very serious problem in slurry pipelines specifically in thermal power plants. Wear of the pipelines results in loss of capital money due to failure and frequent replacement of pipelines. According to FAU-2012, 88 thermal power plants in India with installed capacity of 80458MW, consume 407.61 million tonne of coal (lignite based) every year. Huge amount of bottom ash is produced every year in these thermal power plants and this is transported to ash ponds mainly through mild steel piping system. Literature survey of various researchers shows the high erosion wear of mild steel pipeline material with bottom ash slurry.
In the view of above, author is motivated to study erosion wear behavior of different general purpose materials and coatings. Erosion wear of WC-12Co and Ni-20Cr2O3 coated and uncoated Mild steel, SS 304 and SS 202 materials is evaluated by using slurry pot tester with bottom ash slurry. High velocity oxy-fuel process is used for the coating. Erosion wear at four different speeds 500rpm, 800rpm, 1100rpm and 1400rpm is evaluated at 25% and 45% slurry concentrations with 90min and 180min experimental study. Erosion wear increases with increase in slurry concentration and speed, it is noticed that at low speeds (500rpm to 800rpm) rate of erosion wear is more as compared to higher speeds(1100rpm to 1400rpm). The speed exponent and concentration exponent are also calculated and are in good agreement with previous research works, experimental results are also investigated with taguchi approach so as to evaluate the influence of speed, concentration and time parameters on the erosion wear of the materials and it is found that influence (percentage) of speed is more on erosion wear and is followed by time and concentration parameters.MED TU PATIAL
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
