Because of globalization, U.S. corporations must become more "competitive." They do this by firing people. Whether the term used is "restructuring" "reorganizing" or TQM-ing (Total Quality Management), the end result is the firing of people, presumably to compete with other people who will also, in all likelihood, soon be churned. Seldom do we ask our political leaders and our CEOs who the hell we're competing with. Who are the market forces pushing this relentless drive toward competitiveness, i.e., higher and higher profits, lower and lower wages? If we did ask, we would find out that American workers have become disposable because American corporations have made them so. Not Japanese, European or Chinese companies. Companies based in Europe and Japan are bound by much stricter labor ...

This article offers a critique of some recent work on gender, which, influenced by the linguistic turn, over-states the historical significance of identity. Drawing on the work of the First World War tank commander and later Kleinian psychoanalyst Wilfred Bion, the article offers some suggestions about what a history of masculinity in the First World War might look if emotional experience, rather than "identity," was at the centre of study. Focusing on two men, one an officer and Regular soldier, the other a rank-and-file Volunteer, the article explores the emotional impact of the war on the domestic lives of veterans. The war, it argues, drew men into relationships of care that had traditionally been women's domain; in the process creating both a crisis and an opportunity for subjectiv...

Though they cannot supplant nor replace other methodologies, films can possibly raise new questions, provide different perspectives, and reveal unique ways of knowing about seminal subject, at least by comparison to the standard fare of academic analysis. Each one, "ethics" and "leadership," draw upon substantially different intellectual literatures, scholarly methodologies, traditional assumptions, and disciplinary perspectives. Film, often far better than social science literature, may provide a more "holistic account" of not only individual lives, but entire situations where ethical leadership is practiced. Finally, ethical leadership includes the use of symbols. Symbols abound throughout, thus giving the story meaning, depth, and power beyond simply "a typical feel-good" movie. List...

A grounded theory study to describe how one cohort of Australian nurses dealt with an allegation of unprofessional conduct was undertaken in response to limited research and discourse on this phenomenon. The exploration of the social problem-an allegation of unprofessional conduct-revealed that nurses bring to and experience personal and professional vulnerability in their practice contexts. These vulnerabilities can be distinguished on two trajectories: first, as causal attributes to a fragmentation of decision making and resultant allegation of substandard practice; and second, as motivations to report the nurse to a nurse regulatory authority. These findings have relevance for nurses, nurse administrators, and legal practitioners to enhance understanding of the nature and causation o...
