Resumo: Em 1904, chegou ao Brasil um grupo de empresários a fim de investirem e explorarem o transporte ferroviário. Tiveram como principal representante Percival Farquhar, que desempenhou atividades que foram desde os serviços públicos, como distribuição de energia, até o transporte. Em 1906, o grupo cria a Brazil Railway Company, um holding, e assume a grande maioria das concessões das ferrovias brasileiras. Suas atividades estavam concentradas principalmente no Sul e Sudeste do país. A administração de Farquhar chegou até os anos de 1920, quando mudam a gestão devido a uma crise econômica. A Brazil Railway Company tem características peculiares: desenvolveu, além do transporte ferroviário, a colonização e atividades extrativistas, como a exploração da madeira no Sul e carne bovina congelada. Nossa pesquisa tem por intuito estudar as atividades ferroviárias desse holding no Sul e Sudeste do país, entre os anos 1904 até 1920. Utilizamos como fonte os documentos oficiais da própria empresa, periódicos e Relatórios Ministeriais, além de documentações pessoais, como cartas e Ofícios de Farquhar e outros membros do grupo
Abstract: In 1904, a group of businessmen arrived in Brazil to invest and explore rail transport. Their main representative was Percival Farquhar, who performed activities ranging from utilities such as power distribution to transportation. In 1906, the group creates Brazil Railway Company, a holding company, and takes over the vast majority of Brazilian railroad concessions. Its activities were concentrated mainly in the South and Southeast of the country. Farquhar's administration arrived until the 1920s, when management changed due to an economic crisis. The Brazil Railway Company has peculiar characteristics: it has developed, in addition to rail transportation, colonization and extractive activities, such as the exploitation of timber in the South and frozen beef. Our research aims to study the railway activities of this holding in the South and Southeast of the country, from 1904 to 1920. We use as source the official documents of the company itself, periodicals and Ministerial Reports, as well as personal documentation, such as letters and Crafts of Farquhar and other members of the group

Abstract (sommario):

Attitudes to environmental and investment risk are examined to determine whether they were a defining characteristic of middle-class behaviour in the period 1760 to 1850. Approximately 6,000 investors in eleven canal companies and seven railway companies were investigated to determine whether evaluation and mitigation of investment risk is determined by socio-economic background and gender. Investment risk was defined as inadequate access to, and imperfect interpretation of, information. The effectiveness of information transfer through public and private spheres was examined and the effect of differential access to these information conduits, as a consequence of gender or socio-economic background, was investigated. Investors' response to the risk environment of early death, war and unpredictable economic cycles was examined. Each canal company and the group of railway companies was ranked according to the level of investment risk during both the construction and operating period, using a mix of quantitative and qualitative tests. The risk preferences of 'economic' and 'financial' investors were compared. The strategies used by each group of investor to mitigate risk were examined. The study provides new evidence of the effective transmission of national market sentiment by the 1770s, but reveals that the physical market in canal company shares remained local and continued its separate existence long after the institutionalised national market for railway shares was established. Perceptible differences in the risk assessment and risk mitigation strategies of different groups of investors were observed. This was attributed to differential access to information, which in turn was attributed to gender and social, political and religious affiliation. The study provides evidence that although differences in behaviour were observed amongst groups within the sample population, it shared common investment strategies and that attitudes to risk and risk mitigation should be considered as valid criteria for class differentiation.

Abstract (sommario):

Since the completion of the CPR, the railway has held an important place in the Canadian imagination as a symbol of national unity, industry, and cooperation. It would seem to follow, given the widely held belief that national literatures help to engender national self-recognition in their readers, that Canadian literature would make incessant use of the railway to address themes of national community and identity. This assumption is false. With a few notable exceptions, Canadian literature has in fact made very little deliberate effort to propagate the idea that the railway is a vital symbol of Canadian unity and identity.
Literary depictions of the railway do, however, exhibit a tension between communitarian and individualist values that may itself lie at the heart of the Canadian character. Some of the earliest representations of the railway, in travel narratives of the late nineteenth century, make explicit reference to the notion that the railway was a sign and a product of a common national imagination. But poets of this period virtually ignored the railway for fear that its presence would disturb the peaceful contemplation, and thus the identity, of the individuals who populated the pastoral spaces of their verse. Modern poets did eventually manage to include the train in their work, but used it most often as a vehicle to continue the private musings of their individual lyric speakers rather than to explore the terrain of the national consciousness. One prominent exception to this tendency is E. J. Pratt's Towards the Last Spike, in which imposing individuals such as Sir John A. Macdonald and William Van Horne and thousands of unnamed rail workers combine their efforts in order to construct the railway, which stands as a symbol of how individuals and communities can work together in the national interest. Canadian fiction demonstrates the same impulses as Canadian poetry by using the railway as a means of depicting the thoughts, feelings, and experiences of individuals, but it also challenges the myth of the railway's creation of a unitary national culture by showing how diverse communities---of race, class, and region---imagine their relationship to the railway in very different ways.
The varied character of Canada's literary treatment of one of the country's central national symbols suggests that a tension between individualism and communitarianism also informs Canadian literature itself, whose writers have used the railway to fulfill their goals in individual texts but have rarely employed it as a symbol of national community.

No impulso do progresso no Brasil Império do século XIX, surgem as primeiras ferrovias. Surgiria, em 1875, a Estrada de Ferro Sorocabana. Durante os anos iniciais de República, o governo paulista, por meio da Secretaria de Agricultura, Comércio e Obras Públicas, passou a desenvolver propostas para coordenar as ferrovias e sua expansão no estado, em prol de suas diretrizes de ocupação do território e da dinamização econômica. Durante esses mesmos anos, em 1907, a Sorocabana será arrendada para um grupo de empresários representados por Percival Farquhar, passando a fazer parte de um holding. Sob os anos de administração particular, de 1907 a 1919, ocorreram diversas mudanças, tanto com propostas do governo, até com pressões contra esse grupo. Tais fatos levaram ao rompimento de contrato e a volta dessa empresa à administração pública. Visto isso, nossa pesquisa tem por objetivo analisar primeiramente quais eram as propostas e diretrizes do governo para organização e desenvolvimento das ferrovias. Por fim, compreender qual o envolvimento e relação da Sorocabana Railway Company com tais diretrizes.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis focuses on Litchurch, the railway suburb of Derby, the headquarters of the Midland Railway Company and its workforce, during the period 1840-1900, It examines the consequences of factory paternalism and company loyalty for the construction of 'community', exploring the connections between work, family, and wider social and political life. It begins by looking at Derby as a county town where an early alliance between Whigs and Liberals resulted in the political dominance of the town by a group of Liberal-radical textile manufacturers as a form of extended factory village. There is then a discussion of railway paternalism which investigates the many differences between the family firm and the corporate railway company. The relationship between the railways and the state is examined, through the twin theorization of the railway within the state-intrinsic to national integrity and as a state in microcosm- a form of space management derived from military and civil government. The role of Derby as headquarters of the M.R.is then considered: its decision making and service function; the technological mix of productive techniques; and the distinctive relationship between public and private space. A model of company loyalty based on the experience of the physical and organizational space of the railway company is developed through the notions of the career and the appropriation to the self of organisational space, the 'bailiwick'. The spatial and social structure of Litchurch is examined and its marriage and residence patterns. In the discussion of social institutions, churches, recreation and self-help, the tensions are explored between vertical integration and horizontal stratification which are intrinsic to corporate culture. The extent and limits of collective action in terms of local and national consciousness are then considered. A model of community is then proposed, founded on the routine practices of everyday life, which recognises the multiplicity of motivations and experiences subsumed within the symbolic affirmations of collective solidarity. It concludes with an examination of the antagonism between the county town of Derby, with its history and expectations of paternal intervention, and the corporate Midland Railway 1 which was economically, socially and politically independent of local systems.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis examines the introduction of electric household appliances in Victoria, British Columbia between the world wars. As of 1919, electric lighting had already replaced gas, but electric appliances were still uncommon. Expensive to buy and use, their diffusion was further retarded by poor household wiring standards and uneven service from the monopoly utility, the British Columbia Electric Railway Company (BCER). This firm at first showed little interest in developing the domestic market. However, problems with industrial and corporate customers showed that household customers provided more stable and reliable revenues. Simultaneously, time payments, standardized electrical outlets, and improved wiring standards made its service more attractive to Victoria's consumers. Even so, the BCER remained cautious in developing this market though, maintaining high rates and at first discouraging the spread of electric ranges, as these intensified peak demand. Overall, one does not find a patriarchal, manipulative corporation imposing appliances on Victorians. Consumers, women in particular, were more autonomous than most scholars suggest. Electrical capitalists trailed behind rather than led demand.

This thesis analyzes the performance of Brazil Railway Company, holding company created by Percival Farquhar in 1906 in the United States and it acted in the Region of Contestado at railway, timbering and colonizing branches. Through the subsidiary Southern Brazil Lumber & Colonization Company, Brazil Railway installed a large timber complex extractive exporter and promoted the colonization of land granted or acquired setting immigrants and settlers in deforested areas. During the period from 1906 to 1916 the Region of Contestado went through a process of profound transformations that provoked economic, social, cultural, political and environmental changes. These changes were crucial factors in the outbreak of armed struggle unleashed in 1912 which was extended until 1916 and it was named the Contestado War. The outbreak of the Contestado war is addressed in the context of changes occurred with the opening of the railroad Sao Paulo-Rio Grande, which cut vertically the Region of Contestado in 1910 and it was the beginning of timbering and colonizing activities of Southern Brazil Lumber & Colonization Company in 1911 and the consequent occupation of land for projects of colonization. Former residents of the Contestado Region, many of them, settlers who occupied the vacant lands that were granted to Brazil Railway Company, revolted and destroyed railway stations, burned the timber Lumber of Calmon and attacked the settlers installed by the Company in Rio das Antas. The war of Contestado left a balance of aproximately eight thousand deaths, the vast majority, poor country people who lived in the Contestado Region. The study was compiled from a documentary research based on public and private archives, bibliographies on the subject, and also through oral history from interviews with former employees of the Southern Brazil Lumber & Colonization Company and their descendants.
Esta tese analisa a atuação da Brazil Railway Company, holding criada por Percival Farquhar em 1906 nos Estados Unidos e que atuou na Região do Contestado nos ramos ferroviário, madeireiro e colonizador. Através da subsidiária Southern Brazil Lumber & Colonization Company, a Brazil Railway instalou um grande complexo madeireiro extrativo exportador e promoveu a colonização de terras concedidas ou compradas, estabelecendo imigrantes e colonos nas áreas desmatadas. Durante o período de 1906 a 1916, a Região do Contestado passou por um processo de profundas transformações, que provocaram mudanças econômicas, sociais, culturais, políticas e ambientais. Estas mudanças foram fatores decisivos na deflagração da luta armada desencadeada em 1912, que se estendeu até 1916 e foi denominada de Guerra do Contestado. A eclosão da Guerra do Contestado é abordada no contexto das transformações ocorridas com a inauguração da ferrovia São Paulo-Rio Grande, que cortou verticalmente a Região do Contestado em 1910, o início das atividades madeireiras e colonizadoras da Southern Brazil Lumber & Colonization Company em 1911 e a conseqüente ocupação das terras para projetos de colonização. Os antigos moradores da Região do Contestado, muitos dos quais posseiros que ocupavam as terras devolutas que foram concedidas a Brazil Railway Company, revoltaram-se e destruíram estações ferroviárias, queimaram a madeireira da Lumber de Calmon e atacaram os colonos instalados pela Companhia no Rio das Antas. A Guerra do Contestado deixou um saldo de, aproximadamente, 8. 000 mortos, a grande maioria, sertanejos pobres que viviam na Região do Contestado. Este estudo foi elaborado a partir de uma pesquisa documental fundamentada nos arquivos públicos e particulares, nas bibliografias sobre o tema e, também, através da história oral, a partir de entrevistas realizadas com antigos trabalhadores da Southern Brazil Lumber & Colonization Company e seus descendentes.

Abstract (sommario):

Sudbury serves as a relevant historical case study of a settlement that has undergone several transformations since its inception as a fledgling village in the latter part of the nineteenth century. Though changes of this kind have been frequent in Ontario, they have not normally happened to hinterland resource communities. This article suggests that Sudbury is unique in this regard, having evolved through five distinct stages: (I) a railway company village, (2) a colonial-frontier mining town and city, (3) a regional central-place, (4) a declining metropolis, and (5) a nearly selfsustaining community. The constant restructuring of Sudbury's society and economic base has been caused by a variety of external and internal forces, among which the "human dynamic" has been vital and ever present. The paper suggests that under certain circumstances a resource community can progress from a staples and boom-bust existence to a more sustainable urban economy based on local and regional influences.

Abstract (sommario):

The aim of master thesis is to analyze the economic development of Manchukuo and to answer the question whether the establishment of Manchukuo had positive or negative impact on the economic development of the area. The analysis of the economic development of the region in 1929-1945 proves that the economic impact on the development of the area was positive. Despite an effort to have Manchukuo economically self-sufficient, the region was still very dependent on Japan in both economical and political aspects. However, the comparison of Chinese and Manchukuo's economies shows a higher level of economic development of Manchukuo. The thesis uses the method of the probe and historical-critical method. The conclusions are primarily based on historical and up-to-date literature written by foreign and Czech authors.

Abstract (sommario):

As ferrovias desempenharam um papel fundamental na transformação econômica pela qual passaram a Argentina e o Brasil, na segunda metade do século XIX. Estes países adotaram um modelo agroexportador, a fim de se inserirem na economia internacional que se desenvolvia à época. Milhares de quilômetro de trilhos foram construídos em cada país, boa parte deles por particulares, que recebiam concessões dos governos argentino e brasileiro tanto nacionais quanto provinciais. Para promover a construção de trilhos em países que, até meados do século XIX, se encontravam praticamente às margens da economia mundial e que não tinham qualquer tradição ferroviária, os governos precisaram outorgar uma série de benefícios a particulares, de modo a tornar as concessões atrativas. O objetivo deste trabalho é investigar os contratos e as condições das primeiras concessões ferroviárias de quatro estradas de ferro construídas na Argentina e no Brasil: o Ferrocarril Central Argentino, o Ferrocarril del Sud, a Companhia Paulista de Estradas de Ferro e a Companhia Mogiana de Estradas de Ferro. Essas ferrovias se instalaram em regiões importantes para o complexo agroexportador que se desenvolveu em ambos os países. Além do estudo de suas concessões, também se analisou o desempenho das companhias em apreço, entre 1880 e 1888. As principais fontes deste trabalho são (i) as próprias concessões ferroviárias, (ii) documentos normativos argentinos e brasileiros sobre estradas de ferro, (iii) os relatórios dos diretores aos acionistas das empresas estudadas e (iv) revistas do século XIX sobre ferrovias. Os benefícios outorgados a investidores foram importantes para a promoção das primeiras estradas de ferro na Argentina e no Brasil. A garantia de juros foi o principal deles e ajudou a tornar as concessões desses dois países atrativas, visto que tal benefício era utilizado por diversos países. Contudo, a garantia de juros foi, frequentemente, concedida de maneira não criteriosa assim como outros benefícios outorgados pelos governos. Muitas das críticas que podem ser feitas à outorga de benefícios nas concessões questionam não os benefícios per se, mas o modo com que eles foram concedidos e, posteriormente, regulados. Se, por um lado, sustentou algumas estradas de ferro que não se revelaram lucrativas, a garantia de juros também conseguiu promover ferrovias rentáveis, que se tornaram independentes desse subsídio e ajudaram a desenvolver a economia do país em que se inseriam. É o caso das quatro companhias estudadas: todas elas se revelaram lucrativas na década de 1880, apesar das diferenças existentes entre elas em diversos aspectos como extensão, diferenças na colonização da região em
Railways have performed a significant role on the Argentine and Brazilian economic development during the second half of nineteenth century. These countries have adopted an agro-export economic model, with the purpose of deepening their ties with the international economy that was being developed. Thousands of kilometers of rails were built in each country. A good amount of them by privates, who were granted a concession from Argentine and Brazilian Governments both national and provincial. In order to build rails in countries that were, during mid-nineteenth century, loosely linked with the worlds economy and lacking railways, the governments had to bestow benefits to privates, to make concessions more attractive. This study aims to investigate the conditions and the contracts of the first railway concessions of four Argentine and Brazilian companies: the Central Argentine Railway Company, the Buenos Aires Great Southern Railway Company, the Companhia Paulista de Estradas de Ferro and the Companhia Mogiana de Estradas de Ferro. These companies were established in regions in which the agro-export model has developed. In addition to the study of the concessions, the companies performance was also analyzed. The main sources of this work are: (i) the railways concessions; (ii) normative documents about railways in Argentina and Brazil; (iii) report of the directors to shareholders of the analyzed companies; and (iv) railway magazines from the nineteenth century. The privileges conceded to investors were important to promote the first railways in Argentina and Brazil. A guarantee of interest was the main privilege given in order to render the concessions attractive, as this benefit was also bestowed by different countries. However, the guarantee of interest was, oftenly, given in a non careful manner as other benefits conceded by the government. Many of the criticisms related to the grant of benefits in concessions question not the benefits per se, but the way they were bestowed and, afterwards, regulated. If, on one hand, the guarantee of interest has sustained unprofitable railways, it has also had the ability to promote lucrative railways, that have become free of this subsidy and have developed their own national economy. It is the case of the four investigated companies: they have revealed themselves profitable during the 1880s, despite the differences that distinguished them: extension, differences at the colonization of the regions in which they were built, gauge, passenger and good carried, among others.

Abstract (sommario):

This thesis examines the role of photography in making the Canadian Pacific Railway company (CPR) an integral part of Canadian mythology. It focuses on the company's photographic advertising in the 1920s, and the ways in which its increasingly nationalistic transcontinental brochures framed the country, and equated the act of travelling with nation-building and national identity.
The CPR's tourist brochures established a visual vocabulary of the travelling experience, which was readily employed by individuals such as Montreal journalist Frank Randall Clarke. Clarke was sponsored by the CPR to travel across the country in the summer of 1929. His journalistic writing and personal photograph album allow for a rich analysis of the visual culture of the period, and they will be used to illustrate the ways in which the CPR represented Canadian progress, immigration, and tourism.

Abstract (sommario):

La construction et l'exploitation de la ligne Haiphong-Yunnan avaient lieu dans le cadre de la présentation française au Viet Nam, débutée en1858 par l'attaque du port de Tourane (Đà Nẵng) et interrompue en 1945, après le coup de force japonais et la déclaration de l'indépendance du Vietnam. En réalité, les processus de construction et d'exploitation de cette ligne avaient une influence sur la société et sur l'économie du Tonkin dans la période coloniale. L'objectif de cette thèse donc consiste à examiner ces influences socio-économiques et sociopolitiques de ce chemin de fer. De plus, la thèse vise également 1) à la vie des travailleurs sur les chantiers de construction dans la haute région du Tonkin, 2) à la rentabilité de la Compagnie des chemins de fer de l'Indochine et du Yunnan et 3) au rôle de cette ligne dans la Deuxième Guerre Mondiale
The construction and the operation of the Haiphong-Yunnan railway took place in the framework of the French presentation in Viet Nam, started by the attack in 1858 at the port Tourane (Da Nang) and suspended in 1945, after the Japanese coup and the declaration of the independence of Vietnam. In fact, the process of construction and operation of this line had an influence on the society and the economy of Tonkin. The objective of this thesis is to examine the socio-economic and socio-political influences of this railway. In addition, the thesis also aims 1) to the lives of workers on construction sites in the Upper-Tonkin, 2) the profitability of the Company railways Indochina and Yunnan and 3) the role of this line throughout the Second World War

Abstract (sommario):

A presente tese objetiva estudar os “turmeiros”, trabalhadores envolvidos na construção da Linha Sul da Estrada de Ferro São Paulo – Rio Grande (1908-1910), especificamente no trecho em que mais tarde ocorreu o Movimento do Contestado (1912- 1916). A historiografia sobre este, via de regra, retrata tais personagens de maneira depreciativa e sugere sua liderança no conflito. Após um profundo estudo historiográfico, constatou-se que esta representação encontrava-se amparada por única fonte, partindo-se então para a coleta de outros documentos. Os estudos demonstraram que a construção da ferrovia em questão envolveu o uso constante de corrupção e negociatas. Recorreu ainda ao desgastado discurso da modernidade, que não correspondeu à experiência desfrutada pelos moradores locais e pelos construtores, que sofreram as conseqüências de uma intensa exploração. O próprio Movimento do Contestado, se por um lado causou perdas à Companhia, por outro resgatou a ferrovia de um constante déficit, levando-a a um curto período de superávit. Ao aproximar-se o foco investigativo, constatou-se a imprecisão de afirmações categóricas feitas pela historiografia sobre os trabalhadores da construção da Linha Sul. Segundo esta, tratava-se de homens desclassificados, vindos do centro do país e que teriam permanecido na região, tornando-a mais violenta. Os estudos demonstraram que um contingente muito significativo, talvez mesmo a maioria dos trabalhadores, era composto de imigrantes. Parte destes foi trazida especialmente pela Companhia, outros abandonaram temporariamente as regiões coloniais dos estados do sul, especialmente do Paraná, para auferir ganhos provisórios com a construção. Tudo indica que a maioria não permaneceu na região ao final dos trabalhos, que se deu se forma paulatina e possibilitou uma lenta retirada. Questiona-se, desta maneira, a participação em grande número destes homens no Movimento do Contestado, apontando para uma permanência bem menos expressiva que afirma a historiografia. A investigação teve seus pressupostos teóricos tomados da micro-história, através do recorte preciso do objeto, do uso intensivo de fontes e do método indiciário.
The present thesis aims to study the workers, known as “turmeiros”, who were hired to work in the construction of the south line of the railroad that connected São Paulo to Rio Grande (1908-1910) specifically in the part that was later called the Contestado Movement (1912-1916). The historiography about this movement gives a depreciative idea of these workers and suggests their leadership in the conflict. After a deep historigraphic study, it was observed that this representation was supported by only one source so other documents were collected. The study showed that the railway construction was involved with corruption and shady business. A worn out speech of modernity was used but it did not correspond the experience the locals and the constructors had, who suffered the consequences of intense exploration. The Contestado Movement itself had caused some loss to the Company but on the other side rescued the railway from a constant deficit taking it to a short period of surplus. Getting closer to the investigative focus, it was noted the imprecision of some categorical affirmations that were done by the historiography about the construction workers of the South Line. According to them, they were discredited people who came from the center of the country and who stayed in the region making it more violent. Studies showed that a very significant contingent or perhaps even the majority of the workers were immigrants. Some of those workers were brought by the Railway Company; others left some colonial regions temporarily in the south states, especially from Paraná, to obtain some provisional money with the construction of the railroad. There was some indication that most of them did not stay in the region when the work was finished, it happened gradually and the withdrawal was slow. The participation of a great number of these men in the Contestado Movement is questioned and it points to permanence much less expressive than what was affirmed in the historiography. The investigation had its theoretical suppositions that were taken from the microhistory, through the precise clipping of the object and also from the intensive use of sources and evidentiary method.

Most firms have numerous problems in organizational employee cognition and communication. Despite their negative effects were reported to higher level management, business managers cannot realize the root and essence of these issues. Therefore, paying more attention to organizational communication and taking effective measures to improve organizational communication is an important key to achieving organizational goals and creating good performance. This study selects the Railway Operating Division staff in T Company, which its scale of first-line employees is largest within the company, as main study targets. By using qualitative research to interview three employees representing low, medium, and high level managers, this study targets to investigate: (a) The effect of employee’s cognition and work attitude on operation execution; (b) The cognitive difference between low, medium, and high level management in terms of organizational goal setting and decision making; (c) The correlation between organizational communication and overall performance of the firm. Results of this study shows many cognitive differences between low, medium, and high level management, with ineffective communication in formal communicating platforms, accompanied by low willingness of employees to express opinions. Effectiveness of organizational communication has a substantial impact on the organization’s performance, good organizational communication not only can smoothen the flow of information or messages, but also have a positive effect on the organization’s decision making, execution and performance, which is a matter worthy of attention and serious consideration to managers in each level of a firm.

For a long period, the Taiwan Railway has played a major role in the transportation services along the western corridor of Taiwan since 1887. This unique operational condition will no longer exist after the high-speed railway of Taiwan begins operating. Taiwan Railway Company’s performance in recent years has not been outstanding, and has had to face the Taiwan High-speed Railway’s competition. How to position and dominate the market is the challenge for the Taiwan Railway Company. This study uses Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) to analyze the affect among Perceived Organizational Support, Job Satisfaction, Job Involvement, Organizational Commitment and Organizational Citizenship Behavior. The results can be used as a reference for firms and the staff. According to this study result, the main discoveries are: 1. Generally, the whole theory model is acceptable, suitable and can be supported, so these five constructs have a relationship to each other. 2. Regarding the whole model, the direct relationship between Perceived Organizational Support and Organizational Citizenship Behavior does not exist, and only an indirect relationship exists. The direct relationship between Job Satisfaction and Organizational Citizenship Behavior does not exist, and only an indirect relationship exists. The direct relationship between Job Satisfaction and Organizational Commitment does not exist, and only an indirect relationship exists. This is results means that the staff members of Taiwan Railway Company more care more about the inherent impression of their work relatively, and when their contribution and value are approved by the organization, they will promote the self-cognitive and will bring extra behavior spontaneously and put in more effort to benefit the organization. 3. According to this study model, both Job Involvement and Organizational Commitment directly affect Organizational Citizenship Behavior. This result means that they have already experienced the value of self-promotion obtained from the job as a staff member of Taiwan Railway Company, and have approved the goal and value of the organization. Through binding the emotion, it will impel the staff to have confidence in the organization, and will be willing to devote their mental and physical efforts to the organization.

International labor movement has been inevitable under the globalization trend. And it also leads the development of entire macroeconomics and improvement of enterprise’s performance? Or it turns the competition between local workers and overseas workers? Or the overseas adjustment for foreign workers will affect the enterprise consideration of the rate of flow? Or the consideration of company labor cost ? Therefore, the international company consider all of these to their human resource policy. And all of these are the important issues for discussing. Majority of foreign workers in Taiwan come from the countries more backward, like as from Tailand and India. This research differs from the others is to investigate the overseas adjustments for white color foreign workers in Taiwan railway dispatching industries .In view of the fact that the recent years, big national constructions as Taiwan High Speed Railway, more overseas professional workers we need, more overseas adjustments issues happen . This research is to study the overseas adjustments for the white color foreigners in railway industries. Thus, this study use one railway company as an example, and the white color foreigners who work for , use the interview process , total are 10 persons , 4 Australians , 2 Britishs , 1 South African, 1 Norwegian , 1 Canadian, I Filipino. This research is by interview and questionnaires , collect the Q & A from four variables: national cultural distance, emotional intelligence and social capital to analyze the data and detect hypotheses. In the research process, the participants have had repelled and were not willing to be disturbed , but after persuading step by step, they began to tell their real feeling. One week before Q & A, the interviewer has to send the questionnaires to each possible participants to let them have time to glance the contents which inquired. The results are as follow: 1、 There was no significantly effect of national cultural distance on oversea adjustment of foreign workers. 2、 There were most significantly positive effects of motional intelligence on overseas adjustment of foreign workers. 3、 There were most significantly positive effects of social capital dimensions on overseas adjustment of foreign workers from different nationality. Furthermore, the present study suggested the emphases on selection, training, and policies exercising to promote benefits while introducing foreign workers into our country.

Abstract (sommario):

Cette thèse étudie le problème du routage des locomotives qui se pose à la Compagnie des chemins de fer nationaux du Canada (CN) - le plus grand chemin de fer au Canada en termes de revenus et de taille physique de son réseau ferroviaire. Le problème vise à déterminer la séquence des activités de chaque locomotive sur un horizon de planification donné. Dans ce contexte, il faut prendre des décisions liées à l'affectation de locomotives aux trains planifiés en tenant compte des besoins d'entretien des locomotives. D’autres décisions traitant l'envoi de locomotives aux gares par mouvements à vide, les déplacements légers (sans tirer des wagons) et la location de locomotives tierces doivent également être prises en compte. Sur la base d'une formulation de programmation en nombres entiers et d'un réseau espace-temps présentés dans la littérature, nous introduisons une approche par horizon roulant pour trouver des solutions sous-optimales de ce problème dans un temps de calcul acceptable. Une formulation mathématique et un réseau espace-temps issus de la littérature sont adaptés à notre problème. Nous introduisons un nouveau type d'arcs pour le réseau et de nouvelles contraintes pour le modèle pour faire face aux problèmes qui se posent lors de la division de l'horizon de planification en plus petits morceaux. Les expériences numériques sur des instances réelles montrent les avantages et les inconvénients de notre algorithme par rapport à une approche exacte.
This thesis addresses the locomotive routing problem arising at the Canadian National Railway Company (CN) - the largest railway in Canada in terms of both revenue and the physical size of its rail network. The problem aims to determine the sequence of activities for each locomotive over the planning horizon. Besides assigning locomotives to scheduled trains and considering scheduled locomotive maintenance requirements, the problem also includes other decisions, such as sending locomotives to stations by deadheading, light traveling, and leasing of third-party locomotives. Based on an Integer Programming formulation and a Time-Expanded Network presented in the literature, we introduce a Rolling Horizon Approach (RHA) as a method to find near-optimal solutions of this problem in acceptable computing time. We adapt a mathematical formulation and a space-time network from the literature. We introduce a new type of arcs for the network and new constraints for the model to cope with issues arising when dividing the planning horizon into smaller ones. Computational experiments on real-life instances show the pros and cons of our algorithm when compared to an exact solution approach.

The cost of electricity for the electric rail transport is a major burden, under normal operation, overall electric power cost can be reduced with time-of-use rates and optimal contract capacity. But abnormality still occurs occasionally and causes abnormal operation, resulting in abnormal demand for electricity, violation of the electricity supply contract, and huge surcharge payment. Through the occurrence of abnormal events, this study calculates the train energy consumption and substation load with the use of train operation diagram of abnormal events, and analyses the change of electricity use, to understand the impact to the operation as well as to the substation load. The results show that the "equipment failure" type of abnormal events has the longest and the most serious impact to the substation load, and bigger impact is made when the abnormality occurs in off-peak hours. If the influence time is longer, the deferred effect is caused and the impact will be extended to other substation power supply range. The findings suggest railway operators to consider the possible impact of abnormalities in advance when planning electricity contract capacity, in order to reduce the surcharge and avoid the heavy burden of electricity bill . Measure the minimized total cost and achieve the minimum cost of electricity by considering the probability of abnormality or soft/hardware maintenance costs, not only to reduce the loss of operation cost but also the waste of basic tariff.

After government financial assistance in 2015, Taiwan High Speed Rail has turn from a private company to a public-oriented company, which means government will control key operation assets or rights, such as ticket fare. However, the government insist launch to stock market and promise a 4.9% return rate in long-run. The only and most valuable asset that Taiwan High Speed Rail Company owned is over one million passengers per year. Therefore, this study is to invite experts to discuss how big data can applied to customer relationship management and therefore to create more business opportunity The study found that the company has valuable data information, if the company can conducted a well-planned membership program and collect overall information properly, the company in the end can understand each customer’s lifestyle, that is the most precious information and powerful tool to increase revenue. - Railway business: to drive customers from peak train to off-peak train, by offering a promotion which meet customer’ preference - Affiliated business: by understanding customers’ preference to recommend sales item, to pricing advertising fee, or to develop new product/service. - Marketing cooperation: A lifestyle database of over hundred million customers is rare in the market, the company can leverage it and co-op with different industries.

Due to energy decreasing and industrialized countries are polluting the global environment causing the climate dramatic changes, the government thus began to develop rail industry and construct the rail transport infrastructure to reduce using in the energy, carbon dioxide emissions, and the impact on the global environment. However, Taiwan began to build rail infrastructure , due to the limitations of past market demand resulting in industrial technology and supply chain unable to support large-scale construction project, only through the assistance of foreign track manufacturers or track consultants to provide technical and equipment to help Taiwan build rail transport system. After the commencement of operation of the track built up through BOT or by Taiwan local government, the equipment gradually needs to be maintained, and the consumable parts must be replaced. Particularly in the rail project, vehicle parts are in enormous quantities and the procurement cost is hard to be reduced due to the limitation of sole supplier. In order to solve the problem of a deficient supplier source, the railway company to, began to develop alternative products. Nevertheless, due to the selection of suppliers lacks of a thorough consideration, the result of supplier development often fails that leads to a loss. Therefore, this study will explore the impact factor of supplier selected by the railway transport operations for an alternative product development, and take the example of the pantograph components used in rail vehicles. Invite experts to investigate the factors that influence supplier through Delphi method and then use the right vendor analysis and statistical factors influence weight of AHP, statistical results of the indicators, intended to solve the existing problems faced by the railway company in the selection of suppliers︰ 1.To reduce development risk of failure and the results of statistical indicators can facilitate the decision-makers quickly making a decision. 2.This paper discusses the analysis method used in the future to serve Lee issues on the development of other components.

According to Ministry of Transportation and Communications R.O.C, the rate of passengers of intercity bus had decreased from 20% to 13.5% since 2007 to 2009, and the rate of revenues of intercity bus had decreased from 48.2% to 36%. The operation of Taiwan High Speed Railway is one of the major factors of this recession. The enterprise reduced price to confront the threat of high speed railway. For example, Kou-Kuang Motor Transportation Company cut down the 20% price of Taipei to Kaohsiung route in 2008. We can analyze the operation data of this route to confirm the efficacy of this strategy. The results of price elasticity of demand analysis showed that: 1)The value of price elasticity violated the law of demand since 2004 to 2007. 2)The value of price elasticity conformed the law of demand since 2007 to 2010. It was elastic when Kou-Kuang raise the price, and it was inelastic when Kou-Kuang reduced the price. We also use the multiple linear regression and Chow breakpoint test to prove that the operation of high speed railway is the major factor of the recession of the intercity bus. The results showed that: 1)The operation of high speed railway caused the structural change on the intercept of the regression model. 2)The operation of high speed railway had significant relationship to the recession of the intercity bus.

The purpose of the paper is to find a new community plan for Zeng Zai Liao community, which focuses on the priorities of pedestrians and bicycles as well as preserving community landscape and historic sites, instead of only thinking of linking the path of motor vehicles in the community . The old houses in Zeng Zai Liao community need maintenance , which also makes the pedestrian path cluttering. Besides , the recent urban renewal of the Zeng Zai Liao community adjacent to the Keelung Railway station and the Zong-shan First Road widening case brings new public constructions and new opportunities for the community . However , new public constructions always bring highly-intense destruction . In addition , the Keelung City intends to develop an urban renewal plan which contains larger street blocks with the vehicle-based model, challenging the current and future development of the organic community texture . Through interviewing the local residents and observing the community life routes and the state of houses, the researcher attempts to combine four urban design theories and derive three value systems: 1. the value of urban cities 2. a vertical moving-line landscape value 3. the pedestrian-ramp-bicycle priority value system. In design, the researcher places a linear ladder, a rain corridor and squares and parks, in addition to transforming houses to a public hall and undergoing necessary old houses refurbishment. The research results are found in designing: a new vertical movement route can be operated in the community with parks and squares surrounded. Besides, the new railway station renewal brings new commercial needs in the current context of the organic community texture. With the three value systems mentioned above, it is possible to create new opportunities of leisure and life for the Zeng Zai Liao community.

Abstract (sommario):

A Companhia Real dos Caminhos de Ferro Portugueses, criada em 1860, na sequência da concessão das linhas de Leste e do Norte a José de Salamanca, tornou-se a principal companhia ferroviária portuguesa. Surgiu num momento em que a viação acelerada já tinha sido introduzida no País, mas em que tentava ainda afirmar as suas potencialidades. Desta forma, a nova Companhia possibilitou, definitivamente, o arranque do transporte ferroviário e a sua rede tornou-se mesmo na base da actual rede ferroviária portuguesa. Nenhuma das companhias criadas posteriormente adquiriu a sua importância económica nem o seu peso institucional, pelo que a sua influência sobre o poder político e sobre a regulação das políticas de transporte em Portugal foi decisiva. Para além do desenvolvimento das infra-estruturas e da construção de obras emblemáticas da Engenharia portuguesa, como a Ponte de Maria Pia ou a estação do Rossio, a Companhia Real impôs-se como um agente importante na atracção do capital internacional para o mercado português. Foi uma das poucas empresas a internacionalizar a sua actividade, promovendo e sustentando uma rede extensa em Espanha. Organismo dinâmico, profundamente influenciado pelas conjunturas nacional e internacional, também funcionou como agente de mutação dessa mesma realidade. Diversos outputs e inputs lhe podem ser atribuídos, dos quais se destaca, pelo seu pioneirismo o papel na atracção de técnicas e técnicos estrangeiros, no domínio da engenharia e da finança, que iriam ter impactos decisivos no contexto nacional. O período cronológico analisado neste trabalho vai até ao ano de 1891, momento da grave crise económica e financeira que marca a mudança do paradigma sobre o entendimento do transporte ferroviário em Portugal.
The Companhia Real dos Caminhos de Ferro Portugueses, created in 1860, following the concession of East and North lines to José de Salamanca, became the main Portuguese railway company. It appeared at a moment when the accelerated means of transportation existed already in Portugal, but was trying to show its advantages. In this way, the new company ultimately allowed the appearance of railroad transport and its network became the basis of the current Portuguese railroad network. None of the companies created afterwards manage to be as economic and politically successful as this first company. Therefore, this company influenced some political decisions and transport policies. In addition to the development in the infrastructures, the Company contributed to the construction of famous structures of the Portuguese Engineering, such as the bridge of Maria Pia and the Rossio station. The Companhia Real became an important agent by catching the attention of international investments in the Portuguese market. It was one of few enterprises to establish its activity on an international basis, promoting and supporting an extensive network in Spain. The company was a dynamic organism deeply influenced by national and international political frameworks and also functioned as an important agent of change of that same reality. Several outputs and inputs can be attributed to the Company, from which must be highlighted its role in the attraction of foreign technicians and techniques, due to its pioneer characteristics, mainly in Engineering and Finance, which had decisive impacts in the national context. Chronologically, this dissertation focuses the period until 1891, which is the moment of a severe economic and financial crisis that changes the paradigm about the understanding of railroad transport in Portugal.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI)
This study explores the intersection of the developments in the growing advertising, railroad, and automotive sectors of the U.S. economy. It examines the latter two sectors’ advertising to the elite by focusing on how industries that targeted the luxury market used fine art to emphasize and underscore the exceptionalism of that high-end market compared with the mass market. It does so by looking at the transition from using art as a decorative component unrelated to the product to using art specifically designed to advertise a product or experience. In the literature, advertising history has been delineated rather narrowly as the history of advertising to the mass consumer or as the history of advertising a specific type of product. This work broadens the focus in advertising history to show that luxury advertisers, as a sub-category of advertisers, developed particular advertising strategies, which recognized and exploited the relationship between their respective service or product, and a consciously selected audience for their respective advertisements. It shows that high art became a differentiating characteristic of advertising strategies aimed at the social elite market. This work also proposes the need for adding a specific timeline for the development of luxury advertising to the broad, more generally known outline of advertising history.
