Reiner Ph.D. business and public policy University of California at Berkeley, M.A. English Florida International University, graduate study in history College of William and Mary, A.B. history Duke University This study explores transnational and inter-regional parallels and connections in basic science, technological innovation and commercialization, scientific and technological expertise formations, and technologically based development in the Asia-Pacific region during the early and mid 20th century, also considering late 19th century situations. Path dependence and discontinuities, institutional change and organizational development including patent and securities systems and medical, scientific, and engineering publishing are of interest, along with technological innovation and market development linkages, geographic contexts and demographic change, and individual and institutional leadership. East-west linkages in the late 19th century occurred around developments including the Yugoslavian Nicola Tesla’s wireless wave transmission and Thomas Edison’s electrical generator and distribution systems, as uranium mining developed in the western United States and South Africa, as X-ray science and technology developed. Westinghouse, a competitor of GE’s, gained rights to Tesla’s alternating current motor technology, a technology apparently referred to, likely along with high-energy detonation, in New York Times stories about technology diffusion during the 1884 Philadelphia Electrical Exhibition, as the Sino-France conflict developed.1 The Paris 1 Michael Aaron Dennis, “Accounting for Research: New Histories of Corporate Laboratories and the Social History of American Science,” Social Studies of Science 17.3 (August 1987), 483.

  • Labor Relations and Industrial Adjustment in Japan and the United States: a Comparative Analysis
    Labor Relations and Industrial Adjustment in Japan and the United States: A Comparative Analysis Yoshihiro Tsurumi* There is a specter haunting America-the specter of industrial de- cline. Among the most controversial of the proposed responses to this problem is the development and implementation of a national industrial policy.' Unfortunately, the current industrial policy debate is misdi- rected. Frequently, for example, discussion focuses on the need for a national industrial policy to counteract an imagined conspiracy of Japa- nese competition.2 The decline of American industrial fortunes, how- ever, is internally generated-a direct result of the misguided and shortsighted policies of politicians and corporate executives. This article attempts to provide a conceptual framework for the crea- tion of an effective American industrial policy. Sections I and II outline the nature and scope of the difficulties facing American industry. The discussion then proceeds to consider the major actors in industrial rela- * Professor of International Business, Baruch College, City University of New York, and President of the Pacific Basin Center Foundation. Professor Tsurumi is a graduate of Keio University in Tokyo and the Harvard Business School (Ph.D.). 1. In general, the term industrial policy suggests a consistent, coordinated, and industry- specific government policy designed to facilitate a nation's industrial growth. Although advo- cates differ as to the details, an underlying core of ideas is identifiable. These include: the restructuring of managerial and labor practices, the targeting of government aid to selected industries, the retraining of unemployed or underemployed workers and the rebuilding of the nation's infrastructure. See, e.g., LAWRENCE & DYER, RENEWING AMERICAN INDUSTRY (1983); MAGAZINER & REICH, THE DECLINE AND RISE OF THE AMERICAN ECONOMY (1982); Kantrow, The Political Reahties of Industrial Pol'iy, HARV.

Public awareness of the fluctuations in international automobile trade has come about as a result of recent developments' and concerns 3 affecting the Ameri- can automobile industry. United States lawmakers are currently faced with pressure to take measures to aid the industry and pre- serve the jobs that the industry provides. In dealing with this pres- sure, the lawmakers must take into account the applicable provi- sions4 of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT).'

    REQUEST TO OFFER A JOINT DOCTORAL DEGREE IN BUSINESS Submitted By Baruch College The Graduate Center Of Of The City University of New York The City University of New York Zicklin School of Business PhD Program in Business PhD Program in Business Approved by Zicklin School Faculty Approved by the Graduate Council April 15, 2010 May 8, 2013 1 DRAFT Executive Summary We propose that Baruch College of The City University of New York (Baruch College) be authorized to award doctoral degrees, jointly with The Graduate Center of The City University of New York (Graduate Center) in the area of Business. This proposal calls for a change in the relationship between the Graduate Center, Baruch College and the Zicklin School of Business (Zicklin) with regards to its doctoral education in Business. (Baruch College appreciates the opportunity of having a joint PhD in Business.) As co-issuer of the degree, Baruch College foresees no change in the operations of the program and anticipates significant academic benefits for the future. This is a step in recognizing the significant role that Baruch College plays in doctoral education, and will minimize the confusion that exists among program applicants and employers in the academic marketplace as to whether Baruch College offers a PhD degree. The goal of this joint degree is to move the PhD program into Zicklin, so that the Business program would operate in a manner similar to other academic PhD programs at leading public universities in the United States and globally. The joint endeavor will add program identity to Zicklin, Baruch College and PhD studies in Business.
