There was a time, indeed, not very long ago, when Western scholars thought and wrote that primitive and tribal societies in Africa had no laws. Of course, they saw 'law' as a word and concept of the western culture, in which there was the possible use of force, coercion, the courts and officials like judges, lawyers and policemen. Because the early European visitors to Africa did not observe such force, coercion or officials in black robes they concluded that Africa had no 'law.' For them, what 'law' the observed in Africa was European law, which had been introduced as part of the white man's colonizing and civilizing influence. What they observed in the courts of rulers like the Emire of Kano, Sokoto or Timbukto was attributed to the Islamic influence of the Arabs, who penetrated the Western Sudan in the 10th and 11 th centuries. Be that as it may, it is now well established that every human organization, be it primitive or modem, small- or large- scale societies, whether in Africa or else where, has its own law, which it has developed or made out of its own experiences, environment and needs. Such laws aid human organizations in the task of social control and survival, just as language aid their communication, and religion support their morality. Indeed, law has always been part of a society's culture and an important aspect of its heritage, because it stems from the economic, religious, political and social processes that support the society's culture. Law in Africa can only be seen, felt and defined according to the culture of the society or community whose law is being investigated. Just as each society has its own language, its religion and its rituals, so would it have its own history, its own culture and its own law. Africa is diverse and complex. Within this diversity, however, Africa has some unifying characteristics, especially within climatic and economic religions. In the same way, there are certain aspects of law in Africa which have common characteristics, particularly within cultural zones. For example, no indigenous African society has any law disallowing the practice of polygamy. Indeed, many African societies have laws stipulating that payment of brideprice or bridewealth was an essential condition for a valid marriage. There are laws in almost all parts of Africa which define the rules of succession and inheritance through the male line. Within these general categories, however, each society and each cultural zone would have its own particular variation of the general law.

아프리카 여성 할례와 인권문제

Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is the set of procedures used to remove or cause injury to part or all of the external female genitals. Women and girls of all ages are at risk for being genitally mutilated in Africa. However, the procedure most often is practiced on girls aged four to eight. The World Health Organization estimates that over 130 million girls and women have been genitally mutilated, and about 2 million more are at risk each year. Most of the girls who have been circumcised are from one of 28 practicing countries in Africa; however, FGM is also practiced in Asia, the Middle East, and in immigrant populations in industrialized countries such as Australia and the United States. In the African countries of Djibouti, Eritrea, Sierra Leone, Somalia, and Sudan, nearly 90% of women are estimated to have been genitally mutilated. Why is Female Genital Mutilation practiced? There are follows that : "It's tradition", "Allah says so", "Uncircumcised women are unclean" and "It makes her a woman". What should be done about Female Genital Mutilation? There is little consensus about the continued practice of FGM in some countries. Many international organizations, such as the World Health Organization, the United Nations, and Amnesty International, call for the eradication of FGM as a human rights abuse.

Since the advent of the Information Technology such as the Internet, many consumers are shopping through a new channel called the on-line channel. Further information diffusion in the on-line channel is relatively faster than that of the off-line channel. While dividing two channels(on-line and off-line) completely, we investigate the role of information diffusion under diverse conditions. We identify the information management strategy, which motivates consumers’ purchasing action through comparing the characteristics between two channels. Our analysis indicates that the optimal marketing effort to improve the information diffusion is required for making a larger demand base, which is related with the profit improvement.

The environment has been on top of the agenda in global economy, and companies have been trying to find opportunities for sustainability in green growth. While green management has been considered as a new opportunity for growth, strategy for environment-friendly management remains an uncharted terrain. We aim to investigate the nature of green productivity and propose the evaluation system, which induces green productivity improvement. Green Productivity Improvement Award(GPIA) has been suggested for the purpose of attracting companies` interest more on green productivity improvement. Development of criteria for GPIA is the main purpose of this paper. To establish a new award, it is important to build a clear evaluation system, and that system should be equipped with evaluation criteria inducing potential candidates` efforts, relative weights reflecting key factors to be rated higher, and evaluation methodology providing systematic assessment guidelines. In this paper, we limit ourselves to the scope of evaluation criteria and relative weights, with evaluation methodology remained for the future research. We developed Green Productivity Improvement Index(GPII) as a set of evaluation criteria, and recommend it to be applied to evaluate the company`s green productivity improvement efforts. While most previous studies have been focusing on Green Productivity Index(GPI) which only considered the relationship between productivity and its environmental impact, GPII more focuses on the processes and drivers of green productivity, assuming that results would be the outcome of those drivers and processes. It also widens its evaluation window from the Corporate orientation to Shareholders` perspective with series of green productivity improvement activities. Based on the Balanced Score Card(BSC), we build six perspectives derived from four original BSC perspectives(Learning and Growth, Internal Business Process, Customers, and Shareholders) and two new perspectives(External Process and Social Responsibility) which have been proposed to consider green productivity characteristics. Corporate Orientation and six perspectives are subdivided into thirty KPIs, and those KPIs are weighted by its relative importance. Analytic Hierarchy Process(AHP) methodology has been applied to rate the relative weight of each KPI. Nine-point Likert-type scales are used in paired comparison. Respondents for this analysis are consultants who have expertise in corporate evaluation, professors, Ph. D. holders and Ph. D. students who major in operations management. We propose relative weights and ranks for perspectives and KPIs respectively, based on the results of AHP. Findings of this study are as follows. First, we develop a set of evaluation criteria for GPIA which fulfills the needs to evaluate green management and productivity improvement. We also emphasize the importance of drivers and processes which have received little attention. Proposed GPIA would be a unique tool to Green productivity improvement. Secondly, criteria could be used as a green productivity management tool for the for-profit organization when that company implement the strategy for productivity improvement with green management. BSC has been widely applied to business area, so we believe that GPIA could be easily adopted by the practitioners. Lastly, proposed tools would be valuable for companies` sustainable development and social responsibility. Evaluation methodology has not been covered in this research and remains for the future research. Refinement for weights on criteria considering different characteristics of industries has also been recommended for future research.

서비스 아웃소싱에서의 구매사 몰입이 공급사에 대한 유지관성에 미치는 영향

Trust and commitment have been widely accepted as buyers’ relationship strategy in services supply chain management. The extant literatures have focused on positive effects of relationship strategy with little attention towards negative influences such as buyer’s switching inertia. Suppliers will have higher competitive advantages when buyer’s switching inertia exists in the incumbent?challenger rivalry, while buyer would lose flexibility when switching inertia is evident. In this paper, we primarily investigate the effects of buyer’s strategy, i.e. commitment, on buyer"s switching inertia mediated by supplier’s collaboration in services outsourcing context. And, we divide the sample into two groups, i.e. IT and non-IT services outsourcing, to identify the difference among different outsourcing phases. IT services outsourcing has been considered as a phase of business transformational outsourcing while non-IT services outsourcing is in contract-based outsourcing phase. The results show that buyer’s commitment positively influences the buyer"s switching inertia mediated by supplier collaboration without direct relationship in non-IT services outsourcing. We believe that the full mediation effects present the building process of switching inertia. Buyer’s effort (i.e. commitment) leads supplier’s collaboration which would turn into performance which guarantee buyer’s switching inertia in general services outsourcing. However, no mediation effect has been revealed in IT services outsourcing with just direct impacts on supplier’s collaboration and buyer’s switching inertia. So we recommend buyers for business transformational services outsourcing to cautiously compare positive effect (i.e. supplier’s collaboration) and negative effect (i.e. buyer’s switching inertia) when they apply relationship strategy.

최근 구매사와 공급사 간의 정보 공유 및 협업 등의 아웃소싱 활동은 공급사슬관리에서 매우 중요한 전략으로 자리매 김하고 있다. 아웃소싱은 경쟁우위 확보를 위해 필수적인 방안으로 활용되고 있으나, 계약이 체결된 이후에는 공급사에 대한 통제력이 저하된다. 이러한 상황에서는 공급사에 대한 모니터링을 통한 일상적인 통제만이 유일한 공식적 통제수단으로 남 게 되며, 통제관리가 어떻게 이루어지느냐에 따라 기업성과에 영향을 미치게 된다. 본 연구에서는 아웃소싱 계약 체결 이후 공급사의 외주 구매성과와 구매사와 공급사 간의 운영통합 강화를 위한 전략을 제시하였다. 선행요인으로 공급사 모니터링 을 고려하였으며, 공급사 모니터링 노력에 의한 외주 구매성과와 구매사와 공급사 간 운영통합을 강화하여 구매사의 현장생 산성 향상으로 반영되는 연구 모형을 제시하였다. 연구결과에 따르면, 구매사의 역량 모니터링, 행위 모니터링, 결과 모니터 링은 공급사의 외주 구매성과와 운영통합 강화에 유의미한 선행요인으로 나타났다. 또한, 공급사 모니터링은 공급사의 외주 구매성과와 공급사 운영통합을 완전매개로 하여 구매사의 현장생산성에 유의미한 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 행위 모니터링의 부정적인 효과가 특이한 점으로 나타났는데, 행위 모니터링이 공급사 운영통합에 음(-)의 효과는 공급사 운영통 합이 공급사 현장생산성 향상에 미치는 정(+)의 효과를 상쇄시키기 때문에 매개효과가 나타나지 않은 것으로 추정되었다. 이를 통해 이론적, 실무적 시사점과 본 연구의 한계점, 향후 연구수행 방안 등이 제시되었다. Focal companies (hereafter called buyers) adopt outsourcing practices from a supply chain management strategy to be competitive. Buyers face the bridge transfer after outsourcing contracts, and the monitoring practices would be the only control mechanism left to prevent losing control over the suppliers. This study suggests the set of monitoring practices (i.e., capability, activity and outcome monitoring) as the independent variables to enhance the buyer-supplier collaboration and supplier’s performance. In addition the buyer’s efforts of monitoring are assumed to influence the buyer’s shop floor productivity mediated by the supplier’s performance and buyer-supplier collaboration. The results showed that the monitoring practices are meaningful antecedents to the supplier’s performance and buyer-supplier collaboration, which fully mediates between the monitoring practices and buyer’s shop floor productivity. The mediating role of the buyer-supplier collaboration between activity monitoring and shop floor productive has been rejected, because the negative effect of activity monitoring on buyer-supplier collaboration conflicts with the positive impact of buyer-supplier collaboration on shop floor productive. The theoretical contribution and managerial implications with limitations have been discussed.
