This study concerns foreign language learners' motivational changes over a long period of time; it is an investigation of the learning histories of six learners who have achieved high proficiency in English. Unlike a large body of conventional foreign language learning motivational research, which has primarily been conducted using quantitative methodologies, this study employs two non-conventional approaches, a combination of learners' biographies and case study research. The primary purpose of the study is to holistically explore successful English learners' motivational trajectories and their learning histories in the Japanese context. To this end, foreign language learning motivation is conceptualized and illustrated as a dynamically changing construct that plays an important role in the process of foreign language learning. In the literature review, longitudinal studies concerning foreign language learning motivation and autobiographical studies and case studies that are relevant to this study are examined. The central research question is what motivational trajectories and learning histories these highly proficient learners have had, and how these learners have sustained their learning motivation over time and eventually achieved high proficiency while in an EFL (English as a foreign language) environment. The participants are six Japanese adults who have achieved high levels of English proficiency and who use English in their jobs. The design used in this case study involves both holistic and specifically focused analyses, by which each participant's learning history is collected through individual interviews. The author reports each participant's learning history, and the initial proposition concerning motivational change and salient motivational sources found in the participants' learning histories are collectively analyzed and discussed. Exploring the data concerning how the participants have maintained foreign language learning motivation resulting in the idea that sustained motivation is not always present in successful foreign language learning and that the key to success involves a cognitive change from a state in which motivation is present to one in which a more intentional psychological force, commitment to learning, develops. Based on this thought, a model illustrating the key to success in foreign language learning in the EFL context is presented. The results provide new, engaging, and important information to people who are seriously involved in foreign language learning in EFL contexts, where the majority of learners fail to attain high levels of foreign language proficiency after receiving years of formal education.

Повний текст джерелаThe dissolution of the Soviet Union and the end of the Cold War are widely recognized as watershed events in the history of world affairs. Decision-makers and scholars in many fields are only beginning to understand the profound shifts and realignments in global political and economic relationships in a post-Cold War world. An important link between the United States and the former Soviet republics is the foreign assistance program in the region, since assistance efforts often serve as an important lens through which to view strategic relationships between nations. This evaluative policy research explores that link through qualitative case studies of three US Agency for International Development (USAID) projects in the region. Each qualitative case study represents a distinct approach to foreign assistance delivery in the region: classical technical assistance (represented by ZdravReform in contracts with Abt Associates), formal site partnership (in cooperative agreements with the American International Health Alliance), and experimental technology (a cooperative agreement with the former Selentec, Inc.). Three policy context chapters (Chapters I, II, and III) introduce the case studies, in which historical trends of the assistance effort and of the domestic foreign policy-making framework in Washington, DC, are highlighted. A final chapter (VII) examines the findings from the study and recommends a refocusing of the foreign assistance effort in the NIS toward more long-term developmental strategies. Theoretical and methodological assumptions in the study are informed by the constructionist approach to policy evaluation described by Guba and Lincoln (1989). This broad approach assumes that different constructions or interpretations exist concerning the nature and goals of projects. Unlike typical project evaluations, this approach does not assume that stakeholders in projects share common perceptions of the expected goals for and outcomes of their projects. Constructionist approaches to qualitative study fall within the interpretative stream of social science explored by theorists and researchers from a number of disciplines (Geertz, 1973; Denzin, 1992; Hammersley, 1989; Bruner, 1990). More specific conceptual assumptions also are explored in Chapter I, drawn from the literature on institutional research . Emphasis is placed in the evaluative analysis on how effectively conflicts that arose among the multiple stakeholders in each project were addressed.

Повний текст джерелаThe primary cases, American Express, Case and Vacuum Oil Company, offer a detailed insight into: motives for opening installations in Russia, daily operations, the effects of war, revolution and nationalization as well as business relations under the early Soviet government. The secondary case studies include, Citibank, Chase Manhattan Bank, Morgan Guaranty and New York Life Insurance Company in the financial group; Western Electric, Westinghouse Airbrake and General Electric in the manufacturing group; and United Shoe, Otis, Moline Plow, Kodak, Parke, Davis & Co., Chesebrough-Pond's and Continental Gin in the sales, services and light manufacturing group.
Collectively these firms present a comprehensive account of the largely neglected and misunderstood role of private American business in Russia. The experiences of these companies help dispel conventional notions of U.S. commercial interests in Russia and place American involvement in proper perspective.

Taiwan government legally opened foreign labor to work in Taiwan since 1992. Generally most foreign labors in Taiwan are female except Thailand. Thai labor is mostly dominated by men who came to do a short-term supplementary work in manufacturing and construction industry. The initially limitation of staying for them is three years per time but now it has been extended to 12 years. Although the duration has been extended but foreign workers still have to face many restrictions. In addition, many Southeast Asian women came to Taiwan by “marriage immigration” as foreign bride that has been discussed for so many years, however, there’s only few research for discussing transnational marriage of men. This research is aimed to the interviewees who are the Thai workers intended to work in Taiwan at first but later on married with Taiwanese. The research is also discussed why they chose to marry after worked in Taiwan. Is the reason for economic factor or for non-economic factor? According to this study, the primary reasons that cause the Thai workers to come to Taiwan for a job are based on the economical factors, but after they have a factory life in Taiwan and get along with the Taiwanese for a longer time, the co-workers from Taiwan are those they choose to marry finally. This fact shows that the economical factors are not the only reasons in these marriages and indicates that the foreign workers can get married due to the love since Taiwan has welcomed them to have a job legally twenty years ago. However, there is a contradiction now─ Taiwan needs more foreign workers and agrees them to stay here for a longer time, but at the same time, strongly forbids them to be immigrants by the exotic marriage. In this study, all of the respondents are willing to become a foreign spouse from a foreign worker. No matter their marriages are based on the love or the economical factors, all of them show that they can get higher salary in Taiwan instead of in Thailand, especially for those are in the exotic marriage because of the endless time for staying in Taiwan and the fact that they can change their boss. To sum up, the exotic marriages are so related to the jobs so that the boundary between them is very difficult to point out clearly.

Since the end of colonization and the subsequent accession of former colonies to independence, foreign aid has always played an important role in Africa’s political economy. Previously designed to solve imminent economic crises faced by Europe at the end of the Second World War, it has now become the major source of funding for many African countries for the last 50 years. Aid as a concept has been influenced by western paradigms and economic theories and throughout the years, it has evolved from bilateral tomultilateral level with international financial Institutions such as the World Bank and IMFas itsmain actors. However,the recent emergence of a new type of donors, particularly China, Brazil, and Korea is gradually undermining the influence of traditional western donors. Contrary to traditional donors, these emerging donors usually engage in bilateral relation with recipient countries and have once belonged to the group of developing countries themselves, or are still considered developing countries as in the case of China and Brazil. This type of cooperation between developing countries is called south-south cooperation with China seen as the prominent actor. The growing presence of China in the developing world in general and Africa in particular and the focus on commodity as the main sources of transaction has led to accusations of neo-imperialism, neocolonialism and exploitationby many traditional donors. Our research goes beyond this rhetoric and argues that African states are not passive receptacles of Chinese aid and investment, but rather very active and motivated partners who have in mind their own domestic interests. In addition, since China’s renewed interest to Africa in beginning of the year 2000, economic outcomes as a result of this engagement have shown positive results: highGDP growth rates, increase in GDP per capita, and increase in GNI. Our analysis of Chinese aid to sub-Saharan Africa reveals that the focus of Chinese cooperation on growth oriented activitiessuch as trade, investment;infrastructure development and the building of special economic zones have created spillovers for social and economic development in Africa. Therefore, the relation between China and Africa is not only beneficial to China but also to Africa. In countries such as Angola and Niger, China is very welcomed and many people see in it a source of countless opportunities. The reasons stem from the fact that relation with China could bring industrialization with many countries in Africa reaping the fruit of China’s experience of development. Our findings from the analysis of Chinese aid to Sub-Saharan Africa showthat Chinese foreign assistance reflects the concept of south-south cooperation and is based on a realistic relation. Both regions are motivated by their domestic needs and derive some benefits from their relations. Therefore, the argument of a dependent relation between China and Africa does not hold given that African agency is at work in this relation. We can see that the countries in our case study African are very active in their relation with China and even sometimes use this relation as a bargaining power against western donors.

The purpose of this thesis is to investigate the motivations and goals of foreign direct investment patterns of China’s multinational enterprises. We employ the traditional Intangible Asset Theory and Resource Based View as our main hypotheses. The case studies of Haier and Lenovo groups, which are the titans in China’s household appliances and IT industries, are conducted to prove the consistency with the theories. We proceed by taking up sequentially the following four questions: (1) What is a firm’s specific advantage? Is it applied in foreign markets? (2) Does a firm get new technologies or knowledge through foreign direct investment? If so, is it the very consideration for a firm to invest abroad? Does a firm face any restrictions or difficulties in home markets? (3) Does internationalization process of a firm exhibit increasing foreign market commitments? (4) What benefits do government policies do to the internationalization of firms? We conclude that the Haier group followed the same route as multinational enterprises in western developed countries, but Lenovo group did not. The internationalization process of Lenovo group is much like Barney’s (1991) Resource Based View. The differences between the two patterns come from (1) differences in corporate ownership; (2) differences in firm-specific advantages and (3) differences in market structures.
