Ensnared By Custom: Mary Astell And The American Bar Association On Female Autonomy, Judy Cornett
Book Chapters
Rhetoric—the arts of practical discourse that we broadly define as the use of symbols to influence belief and action—has something to say about contemporary legal theory and practice. Law and rhetoric in the West were born together nearly 2500 years ago in the Mediterranean. American law has eschewed its rhetorical roots since the late nineteenth century. Denying law’s rhetorical nature helps to construct an impartial façade, shoring up law’s legitimacy. Admitting the rhetorical nature of law would be to admit its partiality, or the point of view inevitably inscribed with every textual choice. At the same time, rhetorical theorists have …

A History Of The Development Of Alternatives To Animals In Research And Testing, John Parascandola
A History Of The Development Of Alternatives To Animals In Research And Testing, John Parascandola
New Directions in the Human-Animal Bond
Growing public interest in animal welfare issues in recent decades has prompted increased attention to the efforts to develop alternative, nonanimal methods for use in biomedical research and product testing. In A History of the Development of Alternatives to Animals in Research and Testing, the first book-length study of the subject, John Parascandola traces the history of the concept of alternatives to the use of animals in research and testing in Britain and the United States from its beginnings until it had become firmly established in the scientific and animal protection communities by the end of the 1980s. This …

What's The Deal With Conspiracy Theories?, Blake Ross
What's The Deal With Conspiracy Theories?, Blake Ross
Transformations: Research Papers
The usage of the word Conspiracy Theory isn't anything new. In fact it is a word used widely in today's society. But what is a conspiracy theory, how are conspiracy theorists and believers viewed in the public eye, and what about conspiracy theories do people find so alluring?
The common notion of conspiracy theories are that they are inherently wronged, that history just happens. That people are wrong for trying to connect dots that aren’t there and are a result of un-informed, ill-educated people lacking skeptical and critical thinking skills. In testing this notion I examined two conspiracy theories, one …

CCRD Research Report
推動影視業發展是港府近年的文創政策重心。影視業較為人注目的是黃金年代後票房積弱和創作自由的議題;而銀幕背後,從業員的處境則容易被忽略。本研究報告兼用定量和定質的調查,深入淺出地分析本地投身電影、電視、廣告、網片等影像製作的從業員的勞動條件,探討不合理待遇的成因,並按研究結果提出政策及行業倡議。
本研究以問卷調查了212為從業員的工作狀況,與44名從業員進行深度訪談,得出以下主要發現:
1)影視業以自由工作者為主,他們的僱傭型態零散,普遍沒有明文及完整合約便要開工,並容易面臨拖糧和其他形式的剝削(詳見第5部分):
- 影視從業員以自由工作者為主,缺乏保障,面對多種危脆性(見p.26)
- 多數從業員開工前不會簽署正規協議(見p.35)
- 業內實際工作協議的完整度,比從業員理想的完整度有很大落差(見p.38)
- 行業零散度高,導致拖糧問題普遍(見p.47)
- 從業員容易面臨壓價和被資方轉移商業風險(見p.53)
2)影視業的生態和文化令從業員面對不公的操作和「行規」亦難以改變。這些因素包括:行業以人脈為重、行內層級文化較強、從業員願意為創作犧牲待遇、行內較缺乏團結及行動意識(詳見第6部分):
- 從業員極度依賴人脈接觸工作機會。遇到不合理待遇時,顧慮到自己形象和開罪前輩的可能性,很多人都會忍氣吞聲,避免被行家覺得麻煩、小器,導致不獲重用。這無疑是製造了灰色地帶,讓掌握工作機會的人士和單位可以刻薄對待和剝削勞工,而毋須被問責(見p.58)
- 行內論資排輩的文化仍然存在,底層從業員要對前輩服從,表現出「肯捱」、願意「跟師傅學嘢」、甚至「任砌」等特質,難以反駁不合理要求,勞動尊嚴受損(見p.62)
- 從業員對藝術創作抱有熱誠,在商業製作中亦未必完全以金錢衡量自己的付出,因此容易陷入甘願「自我犧牲」的心態,導致被剝削(見p.64)
- 從業員若遇到不公平待遇,普遍不傾向團結行家一起尋求改變。主流的做法是在個人網絡傳播、私下聯絡對方追討、或放棄追究。多名受訪者歡迎行內發展出爭取權益導向的工會,惟他們認為現時並未有足夠條件推動(見p.65)
3)影視製作市道不佳,令製作預算壓縮,令長工時、職安意識不足問題亦更難有資源應對(詳見第7部分):
- 拍攝現場有不少職安隱患,頗多從業員曾經歷或目睹工傷發生。從業員工時長、經常在疲勞狀態下工作;拍攝節奏趕急;現場未必有專業人員把關安全,僅靠經驗判斷安危等,都是造成職安隱患的原因(見p.77)
- 從業員連續多日超時工作的情況非常嚴重。受訪從業員認為行內有必要對作息時間有合理的規範,不應犧牲從業員健康(見p.74)
- 從業員認同需要專人負責監察片場安全,但對於如何實行並無共識(見p.81)
- 從業員普遍認為政府對行業的支援資源不足、不到位,應邁向更開放、不以商業效益為主要考量的方向改善(見p.84)
基於研究結果,我們對香港影視行業及政府提出以下倡議(詳見第8部分):
保障自由工作者基本待遇(見p.87)
- 業界引入標準合約,推廣開工前先簽訂完整協議的文化
- 政府透過資助影像製作項目,推廣勞工友善措施
- 業界規範工時,減低超時、高強度工作的情況
改善工作條件及職業安全(見p.89)
- 業界和政府合作,設定適用於影視製作的職安課程、認證系統、作業指引
- 政府改善職安執法
- 從業員自我組織,維護及推動權益
支援業界發展(見p.92)
- 政府改善資助制度,支援各規模、多元創作
- 增加畢業生支援,輔助院校新晉人才與業界接軌
