"Summary: "Over the past two decades, an unprecedented burst of entrepreneurialism has transformed China's economy from a closed, impoverished, state-run system into a major power in global business. As products in China become more and more sophisticated, and as its companies embrace domestically developed technology, we will increasingly see Chinese goods setting global standards. Meanwhile, companies in the rest of the world wonder how they can access the fast-rising incomes of China's 1.3 billion consumers. Now Edward Tse, a leading global strategy consultant, reveals how China got to this point, and what the country's rise means for the United States and the rest of the world"

"Langkah privatisasi yang dilakukan sejak zaman Deng Xiaoping membuat ekonomi China terus bertumbuh dengan pesat. Pertumbuhan ekonomi tersebut pun semakin berkembang pesat saat akhir 1990-an ketika internet mulai menjadi konsumsi publik. Dari perkembangan internet tersebut, muncullah Alibaba Group sebagai e-commerce B2B yang menjalankan bisnis melalui skema platformisasi. Model bisnis tersebut pun terbukti berhasil dan mengantarkan Alibaba Group sebagai raksasa bisnis di China. Dengan akumulasi kapital yang diperoleh, keberadaan Alibaba Group tidak lepas dari perhatian Pemerintah China. Kedua belah pihak memiliki hubungan yang baik sejak awal Alibaba Group berdiri pada tahun 1999 hingga tercatat telah melakukan berbagai kerjasama pada tahun 2019. Namun, hubungan baik tersebut pun pecah pada tahun 2020 ketika Alibaba Group dikenakan denda oleh Pemerintah China dikarenakan ekspansi anak perusahaannya yang bergerak di bidang finansial dan e-commerce menyalahi regulasi Pemerintah China. Menggunakan pisau analisis tipologi strategi manajemen politik, penelitian ini berupaya untuk menjelaskan kegagalan Alibaba Group dalam menjaga hubungannya dengan pemerintah China. Penelitian ini menemukan bahwa ketidaksesuaian pemilihan strategi politik yang diterapkan Alibaba Group menyebabkan respons negatif dari Pemerintah China sehingga mereka mendapatkan denda.

Privatization taken since Deng Xiaoping era has made China’s economy grow rapidly. This economic growth accelerated in the late 1990s when the internet began to become public consumption. The Internet development led to the born of Alibaba Group with its first B2B e-commerce platform. The platform business model proved successful and made Alibaba Group become a giant in the Chinese platform economy. With the huge amount of capital gained, Alibaba Group cannot get out of the government's sight. Both parties had a good relationship since Alibaba Group was established in 2019 with various collaborations between the two. However, the good relationship ended in 2020 when Alibaba Group was fined by the government due to regulatory violations in the finance and e-commerce sector. Using the political management strategy typology, this study aims to explain the failure of Alibaba Group to maintain its relationship with the government. The analysis found that the incorrect type of political strategy chosen by Alibaba Group made a negative response from the government. The negative response eventually led to the imposition of fines on the Alibaba Group."

"Penelitian ini, secara umum, ditujukan untuk mengetahui persepsi masyarakat Cina moderen terhadap konsep tradisional Confucianism tentang wajah (lian atau mianzi). Secara khusus, penelitian ini mengungkap bagaimana persepsi tersebut tercermin dalam pola komunikasi antarpersonal mereka. 100 orang Shanghai terlibat dalam penelitian ini, 50 orang diambil dari daerah perkotaan dan 50 orang dari pedesaan. Mereka merepresentasikan berbagai latar belakang sosial yang berbeda, meliputi usia, jenis kelamin, tempat tinggal, dan pekerjaan. Data penelitian dikumpulkan melalui wawancara semi-terstruktur, kemudian dianalisis dengan menggunakan kerangka ajaran Confucianism tentang sifat-sifat yang mendasari konsep wajah. Sifat-sifat itu meliputi relasional, komunal/sosial, hirarkis, dan moral.Analisis data menunjukan bahwa dalam keseluruhan interaksi berbahasanya, para responden sangat memperhatikan nilai-nilai yang terkandung dalam konsep wajah seperti terkandung dalam Confucianism. Diketahui bahwa dari keempat sifat wajah itu, integritas moral de menjadi acuan paling penting untuk menilai apakah seseorang itu masih memiliki wajah atau justru sebaliknya. Hilangnya moralitas berarti hilangnya sifat-sifat manusiawi pada seseorang.

This study aims to investigate the Chinese perceptions about the traditional Confucius concepts mianzi/lian ?face? in the context of the world that is changing. In particular, the study focuses on how such perceptions are reflected in their interpersonal communication. Data was collected through direct semi-structured interviews with the respondents, guided by a set of questions regarding the situations they might hypothetically find themselves. Shanghai was chosen as the site for this study because, among other places in China, it has undergone considerable changes. 100 Shanghainese were involved in the study; 50 were city dwellers and 50 villagers, representing their various social backgrounds. The data were analysed by using the Chinese cultural notions underlying the concepts of face: relational, communal, hierarchical, and moral. Analyses show that the respondents often avoid conflicts with their interlocutors, even if they were put in very unfortunate circumstances. These face-favouring acts are indicative of their closed observance of the norms and hence the concepts of face, by which they could gain, maintain, and enhance their own face. In return, they would be regarded as members of the society with polite behaviours and with other good moral characters.The study concludes that although China is changing, the conceptions and practices of the traditional concepts mianzi/lian "face" among Chinese have remained constant. This is because into these concepts are attached the most basic concepts of humanity; the absence of the concepts of face in the mind of human beings can mean the loss of humanity as a whole."

"This book, based on a survey of academics in 19 nations and conducted by leading global scholars, is a thorough sounding of the attitudes of academics to their working environment. As the post-WWII liberal consensus crumbles, higher education is increasingly viewed as a private and personal investment in individual social mobility rather than as a public good and, ipso facto, a responsibility of public authorities. The incursion of corporate culture into academe, with its ?stakeholders?, ?performance pay? and obsession with ?competitiveness? is a matter of bitter debate, with some arguing that short-termism is obviating epoch-making research which by definition requires patience and persistence in the face of the risk of failure."
