  • Chapter 7 the Social Capital of Structural
    201 Chapter 7 The Social Capital of Structural Holes Ronald S. Burt © Ronald S. Burt, 2001, pending copyright transfer to the Russell Sage Foundation. This is a pre-print of a chapter in New Directions in Economic Sociology, edited by Mauro F. Guillén, Randall Collins, Paula England and Marshall Meyer. New York: Russell Sage Foundation. 202 INTRODUCTION This chapter — drawn in large part from lengthy review elsewhere of argument and evidence on social capital (Burt, 2000) — is about current work on the social capital of structural holes. I begin broadly with social capital in metaphor, get more specific with four network mechanisms that define social capital in theory (contagion, prominence, closure, and brokerage across structural holes), then focus on three categories of empirical evidence on the fourth mechanism: evidence of rewards and achievement associated with brokerage, evidence of creativity and learning associated with brokerage, and evidence on the process of bridging structural holes. SOCIAL CAPITAL METAPHOR Figure 1 is an overview of social capital in metaphor and network structure. The diagram is a road map through the next few pages, and a reminder that beneath general agreement about social capital as a metaphor lie a variety of network mechanisms that can make contradictory predictions about social capital. Cast in diverse styles of argument (e.g., Coleman 1990; Bourdieu and Wacquant 1992; Burt 1992; Putnam 1993), social capital is a metaphor about advantage. Society can be viewed as a market in which people exchange all variety of goods and ideas in pursuit of their interests. Certain people, or certain groups of people, do better in the sense of receiving higher returns to their efforts.

  • An Exploratory Study of Factors Influencing Examing-Into Xuchang University Ming Guan
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com ScienceDirect Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences 116 ( 2014 ) 2664 – 2669 5th World Conference on Educational Sciences - WCES 2013 An exploratory study of factors influencing examing-into Xuchang University Ming Guan School of Economics,Henan University, Kaifeng and 475004,China Xuchang University,, Xuchang and 461000,China Abstract This case study seeks to explain why students choose to pursue advanced education at Xuchang University, and to assess the strengths and dynamics of the factors influencing the enrollment decision. This study used a combination of quantitative and qualitative research methods to explain the factors and process. Quantitative data from a survey questionnaire were used to identify the factors and to measure their significance in influencing or determining the choice of Xuchang University. Qualitative data from in-person interviews were used to gain insights into how freshmen decide to pursue higher education at Xuchang University. The research findings reveal the significant influence of academic, economic, environmental, and job offer /settledown pulling factors as well as a set of negative pushing factors. This research suggests that to attract top freshmen, Xuchang University should focus on investing in research and ensuring the quality of higher education, while crafting a strategy to enhance awareness of and the overall image of their higher education institutions and programs. © 2013 The Authors.

  • Bo ZHANG Henan University
    Bo ZHANG Henan University Abstract: In today’s college English teaching, there are often many kinds of diffi- cult problems. Teachers generally attach importance to language education and despise traditional cultural education in the process of teaching. This kind of edu- cation is not conducive to the widespread of traditional culture in China, and hin- ders the inheritance and continuation of traditional culture. In the process of histor- ical development, China’s traditional culture has a long history. If the teaching of English affects the popularization of traditional culture in domestic colleges and universities, it will be a behavior of loss and gain. Therefore, this paper aims to study the heritage of traditional culture in higher English education, and analyzes the existing problems and solutions. Key words: Higher English; Education and teaching; English teaching; Traditional culture DOI: 10.12184/wspiedWSP2516-250006.20190303 With the continuous development of science and technology and the increas- ing economic level in China, the traditional culture of our country has gradually played its own cultural value in the world cultural stage, and has a very profound and extensive impact. But at present, there is still a phenomenon that the education of our country pays attention to foreign cultures and ignoring local cultures. In or- der to improve the incorrect values and ideas of the new generation of teenagers, it is necessary to integrate traditional culture into the teaching of higher English and allow students to continuously understand the unique advantages of the traditional culture in the process of learning English. In this process, teachers can also inte- grate traditional culture and higher English knowledge, so that students can con- About the author: Bo ZHANG (1980-05), male, Han, Zhengzhou, Henan Province, As- sociate Professor, Postgraduate, Research on Cross-cultural Communication.

  • Social Capital: a Theory of Social Structure and Action - Nan Lin Frontmatter More Information
    Cambridge University Press 0521474310 - Social Capital: A Theory of Social Structure and Action - Nan Lin Frontmatter More information Social Capital A Theory of Social Structure and Action In Social Capital, Nan Lin explains the importance of using social connections and social relations in achieving goals. Social capital, or resources accessed through such connections and rela- tions, is critical (along with human capital, or what a person or an organization actually possesses) to individuals, social groups, organizations, and communities in achieving objectives. This book places social capital in the family of capital theo- ries (the classical and neoclassical theories), articulates its ele- ments and propositions, presents research programs, findings, and agendas, and theorizes its significance in various moments of interactions between individual actions and social structure (for example, the primordial groups, social exchanges, organi- zations, institutional transformations, and cybernetworks). Nan Lin eloquently introduces a groundbreaking theory that force- fully argues and shows why “it is who you know” as well as “what you know” that make a difference in life and society. Nan Lin is Professor of Sociology and Director of the Asian/ Pacific Studies Institutes at Duke University. He is author of The Struggle for Tiananmen (1992); Social Support, Life Events and Depression (with Alfred Dean and Walter Ensel, 1986); Foun- dation of Social Research (1976); and The Study of Human Communication (1973). He is coeditor (with Peter Marsden) of Social Structure and Network Analysis (1982). His work has appeared in American Sociological Review, American Journal of Sociology, Journal of Health and Social Behavior, and Social Forces, among other journals.

Exploring the relationship between cultivated land change and economic development has become a hot issue for scholars.in this paper,The methods of regression analysis, land use elastic coefficient method, location entropy are used to empirically describe the relationship between cultivated land change and economic development.The results show: Since the 20th century, the change of cultivated land area has experienced three distinct stages of change, showing a process of recovery, decline, and steady evolution in Henan Province. The per capita cultivated land area is characterized by an upward trend, and the per capita cultivated land area is increasing year by year. In general, the intensive use of cultivated land in Henan Province is still not high, but the momentum of a sharp decline in cultivated land is basically controlled.

  • Structuring Social Capital: Social, Cultural and Institutional Dimensions
    Structuring Social Capital: Social, Cultural and Institutional Dimensions Nan Lin Yang-chih Fu Chih-jou Chen Academia Sinica This is a draft; do not quote without permission 5/ 24/2008 Paper presented at the International Conference on Social Capital, May 28, 2008 at the Academia Sinica, Taiwan. Data used in this paper were drawn from the thematic research project “Social Capital: Its Origins and Consequences", sponsored by Academia Sinica, Taiwan, through its Research Center for Humanities and Social Sciences, and the Institute of Sociology. The principal investigator of the project is Nan Lin. We acknowledge the assistance of Siyin Lee in the data analysis. Lin, Fu and Chen 1 Abstract Using the attribute data (gender, strength of ties and relationships) in the position generator from three societies (US, China and Taiwan) we examine how the societies are differentiated by how these attributes differentially describe access to social capital (embedded resources). We consider possible differential patterns relative to social (friendships), cultural (nuclear, extended and pseudo-kinships), and institutional (school, work, clan ties) dimensions. Results show that different patterns can be discerned between the US and China samples. For the US respondents, friends emerge as an important source in accessing better social capital. For the Chinese respondents, kin ties and institutional ties are more important. Taiwan seems to fall in-between with the continued but weakened significance of kin ties, the cont inued significance of institutional ties, and the increasing significance of friends. We suggest that these patterns are more consistent with an industrialization explanation than a cultural or political-economic regime explanation.
