At the time when the country is dealing with impacts of the global financial crisis, the All-China Federation of Trade Unions has been working fruitfully and effectively to accelerate economic and social development and safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of workers, therefore making contributions to the protection of the rights and interests of Chinese workers. Now I would like to make a brief introduction on this subject.展开更多

Drawing upon the archival records and publications of the American Federation of Teachers and National Education Association, the following paper argues that the ideological inclinations of union leaders hindered their efforts to protect K-12 public school teachers. The attacks on academic freedom rights during the McCarthy era would thus have implications for years to come in regard to the ability of K-12 teachers to exercise their intellectual autonomy.展开更多

It is the political principle and basic experience of trade union work to carry out work independently under the leadership of the party and in accordance with the law and the articles of association, and must be unswervingly adhered to. The trade union of basic-level communications enterprises should adapt to the new situation, new tasks and new requirements of communications development during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, and play a greater role in effectively safeguarding the rights and interests of workers and building a harmonious and happy enterprise. Many problems existing in the work of trade unions in enterprises have brought great damage to the legitimate rights and interests of the masses of workers. Therefore, the current work of trade unions in enterprises should be improved in order to promote the healthy development of enterprises.展开更多

In Beijing, a local newspaper reported that at a construction site,migrant workers from poor rural villages across China were often given leftovers to eat as their employer tried by every possible means to reduce the cost. The news report instantly aroused public indignation, and Cui Ruilan, a local union leader, felt uneasy about what had happened to those migrant workers she was supposed to protect. She lost no time to intervene in her capacity as vice- chairperson of the Construction Industry Work Committee of the Beijing Municipal Federation of Trade Unions. She went down to the construction site, found the contractor and talked with him. In just a few days migrant workersthere were able to find that their food and accommodation had improved a great deal.展开更多

Compared with the independent cooperatives,the FPCUs can integrate the union's structure and have more cooperation in business. In a wider range,it can also let every member of the union exchange the market information efficiently,and adjust the circulation of cash products,share the technology,generate a mechanism to complement each other's advantages and help each other. The basic situation and effects of farmer professional cooperative unions in Jingzhou City of Hubei Province are analyzed in this paper,by selecting Jing Chu Fu Min Agricultural Cooperative Union,Jianli Fu Wa San Feng Farmer Specialized Cooperative Union and Honghu Chun Lu Agricultural Cooperative Union as typical cases. The prominent problems in the agricultural cooperation are analyzed emphatically,and then the corresponding measures and suggestions are put forward.展开更多

G is called X-cyclable if G has an X-cycle, i.e., a cycle containing all vertices of X. Define the parameters a(X) = max{|S| S is an independent vertex set in G[X] induced by X}, σk(X) = min{∑ki=1dG(x.i| {x1, x1…, xk} is an independent vertex set in G[X]} and NCk(X) = min{|∪ki=1 NG(xi)| | {x1, x2…,xk} is an independent vertex set in G[X] }. Our main result is as follows: If G is a 1-tough graph and X V(G) with σ3(X)≥ n, then for every integer t ≥ 1, G has a cycle C containing at least min{|X|, (2|X| - n + 3δ + 1 - t), |X| + NCt(X) - a(X)} venices of X, where δ(X) = [σ3(X)]. This result further extends previous results in H.J. Broersma et al. in terms of X-cyclability. We also obtain that if G is a 1-tough graph with σ3 (X) ≥ n, then for every integer t ≥ 1, G has a cycle containing at least min{|X|, (4|X|- 2n+4δ(X) + 1 - 2t), NCt (X) +NCt (X)} vertices of X, where NCt (X) = min{|N(I) ∩X|| I is an independent set of t vertices of X}. Analogous results are established for 2-connected graphs.展开更多
