BUGAS* When I started thinking about these remarks, I wondered what I might say that would be of interest to you. At first thought, it seemed that labor negotiations, union demands and strike votes were hardly the thing to talk about in Wyoming. After all, this is primarily cattle and sheep country. Industry and unions play a relatively small part in your affairs. But, after thinking about it a little, I realized I was wrong-and I knew what it was I wanted to say today. We Americans may have been doing too little thinking and talking about things, when they don't seem to affect us right here and now. Too often, we fail to notice that what may be the other fellow's problem today may very well turn out to be our problem tomorrow- magnified and complicated because we were unwilling to do anything about it when it first appeared.

  • Exploring the Meaning of Ethical Consumption: a Chinese Perspective
    EXPLORING THE MEANING OF ETHICAL CONSUMPTION: A CHINESE PERSPECTIVE Yan Huo A thesis submitted to The University of Gloucestershire in Accordance with the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Business School September 2016 Abstract The existing literature on ethical consumption is primarily developed from a Western perspective; those from other parts of the world remain under- represented. This study offers an authentic Chinese perspective of ethical consumption: revealing Chinese consumers’ responses to the Western notion of ethical consumption and describing their interpretations of ethical consumption in a Chinese context. A phenomenological approach was adopted to explore this Chinese perceptive through consumers’ lived life stories and experiences. Four focus groups and fourteen interviews were conducted to ‘make text’, thematic analysis, guided by a hermeneutic approach to interpretation, was then used to produce rich meanings. This study’s findings highlight the significance of traditional Chinese cultural virtues, and in particular, those attached to reconstructionist Confucianism. The outcomes illustrate that these traditional Chinese virtues are still deeply embedded in Chinese consumers, speaking through them and influencing their construction of the meanings of ethical consumption. Virtues such as harmony, thrift, being humble, trustworthiness, humanness and righteousness, loving one’s family and extending this love to others, are particularly relevant. This Chinese perspective of ethical consumption, therefore, can be viewed as ‘a bundle of virtues’. This bundle does not operate in a fixed order, but rather the elements interact with the external environment and thus the virtues used are influenced by specific situations to provide the basis for ‘ethical consumption’ in context.
