But while corporations are ostensibly regulated by citizens through their governments, the firms in turn regulate many aspects of social and political life for individuals beyond their own employees and the communities that support them. Corporations are endowed with many of the same rights as citizens, such as freedom of speech, but are not themselves typically constituted around ideals of national belonging and democracy. In the wake of the global financial collapse of 2008, the question of what relationship corporations should have to governing institutions has only increased in urgency. As a democratically sanctioned social institution, should a corporation operate primarily toward profit accumulation or should its proper goal be to provision society with needed goods and services?Corporations and Citizenship addresses the role of modern for-profit corporations as a distinctive kind of social formation within democratic national states. Scholars of legal studies, business ethics, politics, history, and anthropology bring their perspectives to bear on particular case studies, such as Enron and Wall Street, as well as broader issues of belonging, social responsibility, for-profit higher education, and regulation. Together, these essays establish a complex and detailed understanding of the ways corporations contribute positively to human well-being as well as the dangers that they pose.

So, What Was All the Fuss About?. 330 $aThis book offers a precise and rigorous analysis of the meanings of offensive words in Chinese. Adopting a semantic and cultural approach, the authors demonstrate how offensive words can and should be systematically researched, documented and accounted for as a valid aspect of any language. The book will be of interest to academics, practitioners and students of sociolinguistics, language and culture, linguistic taboo, Chinese studies and Chinese linguistics. Adrian Tien was Associate Professor in Chinese Studies (Linguistics) at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. His co-authors, also at Trinity, are Lorna Carson, Associate Professor in Applied Linguistics and Director of the Trinity Centre for Asian Studies, and Ning Jiang, Assistant Professor in Chinese Studies. . 606 $aLinguistics 606 $aSociolinguistics 606 $aCulture 606 $aOriental languages 606 $aAnthropological linguistics 606 $aLinguistics 606 $aSociolinguistics 606 $aSociology of Culture 606 $aOriental or Semitic Languages 606 $aLinguistic Anthropology 615 0$aLinguistics. 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aOriental languages. 615 0$aAnthropological linguistics. 615 14$aLinguistics. 615 24$aSociolinguistics. 615 24$aSociology of Culture. 615 24$aOriental or Semitic Languages. 615 24$aLinguistic Anthropology. 676 $a495.12 676 $a495.17 700 $aTien$b Adrian$0847459 702 $aCarson$b Lorna 702 $aJiang$b Ning 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484472303321 996 $aAn Anatomy of Chinese Offensive Words$92276574 997 $aUNINA
