Abstract: |
|
The objective of this proposal is to statistically evaluate the sustainability of a development control system in terms of self-financing, control of externalities and efficiency using publicly available data. The key issues would be the justification relevant evaluation criteria and the design of the statistical method to carry out the evaluation. The problem is largely a matter of the time consuming nature of data collection and data analysis. In addition, it is worth interviewing practitioners, developers and officials but work of this nature will be performed by tyhe investigators, not the RA1. |

Abstract: |
|
Construction procurement systems exhibit patterns of power disposition of various parties with shifting focal points. The nature of the project organisation, being a temporary multi-organisation, gives rise to a potential interplay of multi-organisational power relations. The present study aims to reveal the relationship between the project manager's power and performance and whether the different procurement systems give rise to different degrees of power-resistance/obedience in terms of management control. |

Abstract: |

KEY ISSUE: In the Hong Kong environment
where the economic, political and social systems have been changing, the
workforce faces dynamism with relatively unpredictable outcomes that might
deter their commitment to their organizations, e.g. when will I lose my job;
when will I face a salary cut; when will I be asked to undertake more
overtime without pay etc.? Even the apparent economic recovery has been
viewed with skepticism. The construction industry has faced a major downturn
with lower/decreased property prices in the last few years. It is timely to
investigate organisational commitment levels of
project participants in the construction industry and to investigate the
antecedents to commitment and organisational
effectiveness. The key issue is to examine if effectiveness of the porject organization can be improved by increasing
project participants’ commitment through work empowerment. RESEARCH
OBJECTIVES: Since employees’ commitment contribute to organisational
effectiveness, it is desirable for the construction project participants to
investigate means of sustaining organisational
commitment; hence, the research objectives are: 1. To investigate project
participants' perceived means and levels of work empowerment in the various organisational types where they are employed. 2. To
examine whether work empowerment is an antecedent of organisational
commitment in construction projects. 3. To explore if the above antecedent,
if exists, is applicable beyond HKSAR, i.e. whether HK is increasingly
pulsing in tune with the mainland, or vice-versa, so much that project
participants' behavioural patterns are similar.
PROBLEMS: Both commitment and work empowerment are alleged to be attributable
to organizational effectiveness. In the context of the construction industry,
the research problems are: (1) what are the factors that contribute to
commitment? (2) can work empowerment increase
commitment? (3) what is the relationship between
work empowerment and commitment? (4) can we increase
commitment through work empowerment in order to imporve
organizational effectiveness in the construction industry? Commitment to an
organization reflects the relative strength of an individual’s identification
with and involvement in that organization (Steers 1977). However, some
theorists suggest that a high level of commitment may not be beneficial to an
organization. High levels of commitment, especially continuance commitment,
may hinder/limit opportunities for mobility and may result in unquestioning
obedience that may suppress creativity and innovation (Suliman
and Iles, 1999). Allen and Meyer (1990) identify 19
variables as antecedents to different types of commitment but the 19
variables are, arguably, similar to the dimensions of work empowerment,
including opportunity (Kirkman and Rosen 1999),
information (Lawler 1992), support (Spreitzer 1996)
and resources (Kanter 1977). It is generally agreed
that work empowerment brings about effectiveness in an organization (Kanter 1983) but the link between these two concepts are
intuitively perceived. Organizational effectiveness is measured in terms of
productivity (Kirkman and Rosen 1999), quality
(Cohen, Ledford and Spreitzer 1996), job
satisfaction and organizational commitment (Wilson and Laschinger
1994, Locke, Schweiger and Latham, 1986, Tao,
Takagi, Ishida and Masuda,1998). Empowerment is one
of the means to maintain the internal consistency of an organisation
to accomplish objectives and productivity. Empowered individuals have control
over opportunities, information, support and resources, thus, organizational
effectiveness is improved through individuals' motivation and power
sharing/amassing with others. RATIONALE: Work empowerment is referred as a
motivational construct (Conger and Kanungo 1988)
while commitment is regarded as a measures of organisational effectiveness (Laschinger
1996) whereby the willingness of social actors (the project participants) to
give their energy and loyalty to the social system (organization) is defined
(Kanter 1968). A consequence of specialisation
in the construction industry is the dependencies of the activities and the
necessary integration to obtain the desired construction output. Such
integration leads to power structuring in project organization due to the
dependencies. However, such structuring is dynamic in construction projects
and so, the shifting multi-goal coalition which
results reflects the changing power structure of the main actors (Walker and Newcombe 2000). Emerson (1962) proposed a model of social
exchanges via analysis of power differentials and dependencies between
people. Clearly, power imbalances are not always equalised.
Generally, the greater the dependency, the greater the power of the agent.
Contrary to the Machiavellian approach, modern management literature suggests
the practice of empowerment (e.g. Kanter 1983).
Empowerment is the act of strengthening an individual’s beliefs in his/her
sense of effectiveness – a process of changing the internal beliefs of people
(Conger and Kanungo 1988) or self efficacy (see Bandura 1986 on social cognitive theory for self
efficacy). The sense of powerlessness maximises
feelings of inadequacy and lower self-confidence which, in turn, lessen
motivation and effectiveness (Conger 1989) and may reduce the sense of organisational commitment. REFERENCES: Allen N.J., Meyer

To test empirically selected realtionships surrounding PF arrangements in Asian developing countries, focusing on two phenomena: the financial structure of PFs (specially the level of debt), and transaction costs of PF arrangements when legal, regulatory and political institutions are underdeveloped. Two questions are to be addressed empirically: 1) is the institutional and informational infrastructure in transition economies stable enough to finance a project through PF arrangements? 2) Can the specially designed institutions and additional financial intermediaries control the transaction costs of PF arrangements in poor institutional environment? |

Abstract: |

This research aims to: establish the nature of risk culture; enhance understanding of the concepts of risk and culture; develop methodologies to study organisations at a distance; and benchmark organisation risk perceptions across sectors and national boundaries This research builds on existing research output in the field of health and safety management but addresses a fundamental issue, risk perception, which has a profound effect on the development and management of organisational safety culture and safety climate. Increasing emphasis has been put on health and safety objectives within organisations and, in particular, on developing a safety culture and a safety climate. However, much of this work has been pushed forward without going back to the very basics of risk, its perception and management, and its impact upon safety performance. Safety management is basically a domain bound concept whereas risk is pervasive across the whole organisation. Therefore, risk perception is the basic starting point for improving health and safety management. As such, it is important to study and define an organisation’s risk culture before moving on to define and mould its safety culture and safety climate. Currently, our understanding of the concepts of risk and culture are somewhat fuzzy. This research aims to put these issues into sharp focus. Currently, the concept of risk is undergoing considerable investigation in many fields. It is variously addressed by formulating the concept under, inter alia, risk-management, risk perception, risk taking and risk decision-making. This research aims to conceptualise and define risk perception within the organisational context. The research proposed here will improve our understanding of this concept and integrate the different and divergent conceptualisations which currently exist and which can be characterised on a spectrum of approaches from psychometric through to cultural theory. The research will provide a sound basis for conceptualising risk in organisations and within different cultural contexts and provide the opportunity to develop valid methodologies to manage risk in a manner which deals with health and safety issues, such as culture and climate, from a grounded perspective taking into account not just culture and perceptions but also industry and organisational contexts. Thus, a contribution will be made in terms of both theory and practice. This proposed project forms part of an international cluster of projects and so the synergy which can be developed from this research is extensive and the potential for broad ranging, high impact results is high. |

Abstract: |
|
Social and public policy themes are important at the global, national, regional and local levels. To understand why specific issues enter onto the policy agenda, why some policies are implemented and not others, and the consequences of policies requires an understanding of the overall context within which policies are implemented and why responses to particular problems were chosen. |

Abstract: |
|
The purpose of the investigation is to: (a) make a first time application of new institutional economics (NIE) to Chinese urban housing markets; (b) use NIE to understand processes of reform and impact in Chinese urban housing markets; (c) explore the utility of a theory-led evluation framework for the analysis of resturcturing in Chinese urban housing markets; (d) develop new evidence and datasets in a case study of Wuhan; and (e) contribute towards theoretical, empirical and policy debates on institutional reform in urban China through the findings of this theoretically-led evaluation. The project addresses two central issues within the literature, one conceptual the second methodological: 1. New Institutional Economics, that is theories of property rights (Barxel, 1997; Webster and Lai, 2003), transaction costs (Williamson, 1975) and public choice (Down, 1967; Niskanen, 1971), suggests itself as a conceptual framework that will be of great value in explaining and interpreting the processes of commodification in Chinese urban housing markets. It offers a lens that will explain a range of issues and problems. For example, the various 'strata' in housing markets, such as commodity housing, or partly privatised housing can be understood through a property rights lens were commodity housing offers full property rights, urban farm villages collective rights, and partial rights in partly privatized state housing. Furthermore, we can understand these 'strata' as transitional-full property rights have not yet been attained. This leads to emergent market structures and the development of new institutions, for example property management agents. A second illustrative example of how NIE offers an important insight into issues and problems comes from a public choice perspective: the ongoing change in the size and nature of city government bureaux can be seen as a response to changes in the housing market, the way in which information is available to actors in the market to exercise choice (for example transitional arrangements are emerging to arbitrate disputes between property management companies and unincorporated homeowners associations) and the power of city majors to implement new approaches. Alongside explaintions of urban housing markets the NIE perspective also allows issues of impact to be addressed, this could be city-wide changes in efficiency or responsiveness or between households accorded different property rights or to assess the impact on equity (use, access, outcome and final income) as market processes are rolled out. 2. The RGC application proposed developing a multi-site comparative case study method. Given this application is to improve upon that application, and to undertake exploratory case studies, the methodological contribution will be to implement the proposed theory-led evauation within one city (allowing vertical and horizontal comparisons within a city). |
