    Occupation, Class, and Social Networks in Urban China* yanjie bian, Hong Kong University of Science and Technology ronald breiger, University of Arizona deborah davis, Yale University joseph galaskiewicz, University of Arizona Abstract China’s class structure is changing dramatically in the wake of post-1978 market- oriented economic reforms. The creation of a mixed “market-socialist” economy has eroded the institutional bases of a cadre-dominated social hierarchy and created conditions for a new pattern of social stratification. Although conditions remain dynamic, results of a 1998 urban survey that measured strength and diversity of social ties among 400 households in four of China’s largest cities documented networks of social exchange among 13 occupation-based classes that identify a class structure distinct from the cadre-dominated social hierarchy of the Mao era. In particular, analysis of visiting during the Lunar New Year celebration suggests an urban society simultaneously divided along two axes: one by economic success in the more privatized economy and one by distinctions in political authority at the workplace. Thus contrary to those who privilege market transactions as the primary engine for creating a new class hierarchy, we conclude that to understand processes of social stratification one needs theories and methods that work simultaneously with multiple dynamics of class differentiation rather than presuming linear hierarchy. * Earlier versions of this article were presented at the Sunbelt International Conference on Social Network Analysis, Cancun, Mexico, February 12–16, 2003; the annual meetings of the American Sociological Association, Atlanta, August 15–19, 2003; and the conference “Current Situations in China,” in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Universities Service Center, Chinese University of Hong Kong, January 5–7, 2004.

Our recommendations have the synergistic goals of improving employee wellbeing, employee productivity, and agency performance and innovation, which will result in increased agency efficiency and effectiveness for the taxpayer. Specifically, we describe empirical findings and offer suggestions for interventions to improve (a) employee motivation through engagement, empowerment, and embeddedness; (b) employee voice; and (c) within- and across-unit cooperation, communication, and collaboration. We offer recommendations that are sufficiently general to be relevant to many agencies, while also being concrete and actionable.

BRASS University of Kentucky JOSEPH GALASKIEWICZ University of Arizona HENRICH R. GREVE Norwegian School of Management BI WENPIN TSAI Pennsylvania State University The central argument of network research is that actors are embedded in networks of interconnected social relationships that offer opportunities for and constraints on behavior. We review research on the antecedents and consequences of networks at the interpersonal, interunit, and interorganizational levels of analysis, evaluate recent theoretical and empirical trends, and give directions for future research, highlighting the importance of investigating cross-level network phenomena. A quarter century of social network research in nected relationships that provide opportunities for management journals has resulted in the accumu- and constraints on behavior.

    Prototyping: Weaving Together Conceptual, Empirical, and Applied Perspectives A Proposal to the Design Thinking Research Program Principal Investigator: Professor Robert I. Sutton Department of Management Science & Engineering Stanford University [email protected] Co-Investigator: Debra L. Dunn Consulting Associate Professor Hasso Plattner Institute of Design at Stanford [email protected] Stanford University Co-Investigator: Jeffrey Pfeffer Thomas D. Dee II Professor of Organizational Behavior Graduate School of Business Stanford University [email protected] July, 2008 1 Abstract This proposed stream of research will focus on developing a conceptual perspective on prototyping, which is intended to be both empirically grounded and practical. This stream of research will begin with efforts by Scott Klemmer, Jeffrey, Pfeffer, and Robert Sutton to develop a working framework that specifies the process and effects of rapid prototyping; this framework will be grounded in diverse theory and research from the behavioral sciences and engineering. The ideas from this framework will be further developed, tested, and revised on the basis of quantitative and qualitative evidence generated through a year-long d.school “lab” or “learning community” of 8 to 12 organizations that will focus on prototyping potentially better ways of designing and using employee performance evaluations. This set of pilot studies and experiments will focus on using a “bottoms-up” and human-centered approach to reinventing performance evaluation systems and experiences. Debra Dunn, Jeffrey Pfeffer, and Robert Sutton will take the primary leadership roles in developing, guiding, and evaluating the prototypes designed and implemented by this learning community. Finally, we will use our work on this conceptual framework, evidence from the learning community, and input from design classes and faculty (at both Stanford and Potsdam) to generate and continuously refine a set of practical and valid guidelines for people and organizations that adopt prototyping mindsets and methods.

    Sociology 527 Joseph Galaskiewicz Spring, 2012 Social Science 434 Social Science 415 520-621-7084 Wednesday, 3:30-6:00 PM [email protected] SOCIAL NETWORK ANALYSIS Introduction: The purpose of this course is to give graduate students in the social and behavioral sciences a better understanding of how social network analysis has been used to study a variety of social processes. More specifically, we want to identify the key network concepts that have been used by social and behavioral scientists, describe the ways in which they've been operationalized in empirical research, evaluate their contribution to the understanding of substantive problems in sociology and administrative science in particular, and critique their use. This course cannot cover all the work that has been done in the social and behavioral sciences in the network tradition. The literature is too massive. Nonetheless, the course will be useful for those who wish to learn more about social network analysis and some of its applications. Soc 527 (this course) and Soc 526 (Research Methods in Social Network Analysis) are often offered in alternate years. Students may, if they want, take both courses for credit, in either order. Soc 526 concerns qualitative and quantitative methods for researching social networks. Soc 527 touches upon methods but focuses more on substantive problems in the social and behavioral sciences where networks analysis has made some contribution. Format: For the first twelve weeks the format for the seminar is straightforward. Students are expected to do all the readings beforehand. The instructor will give some background on the topics and some of his own opinions on the readings.
