The validity of indices for rural health manpower needs assessment

Population-to-practitioner ratios have long been the primary index in the designation of health manpower shortage areas. This paper documents that application of the widely used population-to-dentist index results in understatement of the need for dental health manpower in rural areas. Through the analysis of utilization data collected from a statewide health screening program in Colorado, the practice of sole reliance on the population-to-dentist indices as an indicator of need was tested. Another measure, the area-(square miles) to-dentist ratio was formulated, examined, and found to be a more useful referent of the need for additional health manpower in rural areas. Utilization of dental services in sparsely settled rural counties of Colorado was unrelated to population-to-dentist ratios. A strong, statistically significant association of utilization with land area-to-dentist ratios was found. The findings of this analysis suggest a need for reevaluation of needs assessment methodologies used in the designation of health manpower shortage areas. Indices more sensitive to consumer circumstance than to the number of health care providers available must be considered.     

Whither the Internal Conversation?

The internal conversation has a venerable place in the symbolic interactionist tradition but has been the focus of little empirical research by interactionists. After reviewing selected research on the internal conversation (most by noninteractionist sociologists or nonsociologists), we argue that interactionists ought to conduct research of our own to examine claims we have been making and to better understand social life. We propose some worthy areas and avenues of investigation.     

Neoconservatism,bohemia and the moral economy of neoliberalism

This paper is concerned with the moral economy of neoliberalism. The goal is to show the development of this moral economy through the discourse of neoconservatism. The research pays particular attention to the incorporation of aspects of bohemia in the construction of this moral economy. The paper charts the development of the neoconservative moral critique of political modernity in the second half of the twentieth century by drawing on the leading neoconservative figures, Norman Podhoretz and Irving Kristol. The first part of this research makes clear the homology between the neoconservative critique of bohemia and excessive capitalism, where both are accused of nihilism as part of the moral abyss of liberal modernity. The second part of this research shows how, through the work of George Gilder, neoconservatives re-imagined a moral economy for capitalism that overcame the apparent nihilism whilst retaining the unrestrained nature of accumulation. Through a celebration of the heroic entrepreneur, neoliberalism’s moral economy is based upon a celebration of risk, an embrace of chance and an overturning of bourgeois morality. Neoliberalism incorporates the bohemian critique of bourgeois capitalism into a critique of the social democratic welfare state which, by prioritising safety over pleasure and excess, is deemed to be both incapable of offering spiritual satisfaction as well as being ill suited to a post-Fordist economy. The flexible nature of bohemia that rebelled against organised strictures of bourgeois morality and Fordist organisation is welcomed by the neoliberal turn. The spiritual satisfaction of life on the edge offered to the neoliberal subject acts as a form seduction and mirrors the creative freedom offered through bohemia. Neoliberalism’s gift, however, comes at a price, the edgy existence is coupled with removal of social safety nets and increasing insecurity and precariatisation.     

T.S.艾略特在《四个四重奏》中的本土意识

T.S.艾略特的《四个四重奏》反映出诗人的本土意识,即美国及美国文化的烙印.虽然艾略特并没有像其他美国诗人如惠特曼那样成为真正"美国制造"的本土诗人,《四个四重奏》却不妨被贴上"美国制造"的标签--诗歌中流露出的美国哲学思想的影响,具有美国本土影像的意象清晰可辨.文章着重挖掘诗歌中体现美国文化的哲学内容和诗歌意象,从而证明本土意识在艾略特《四个四重奏》创作中的重要意义.     

理性与感性的统一——玄学派诗歌溯源及特色探究

“理性与感性的统一”不仅是玄学派诗歌,而且也是二十世纪诗人艾略特所倡导的现代派诗歌的主要特点之一。本文试图通过对这一概念作“关键词”式的梳理并结合玄学派诗歌进行文本分析,以帮助读者对其进行更为全面和深入的理解。     

乔治·艾略特矛盾的女性主义观及其背景渊源

英国女作家乔治·艾略特杰出的成就使其被公认为维多利亚时期最伟大的女作家之一。但是，她对于女性主义的态度却十分矛盾，一方面支持女性在婚姻、教育和职业上争取自己的权益；另一方面则高度赞扬女性的克己、屈从和自我牺牲等品质。     

The Past in the Present. Lessons on Semiotics of History from George H. Mead and Boris A. Uspensky

This article examines the parallels between George H. Mead's theory of time and Boris A. Uspensky's semiotics of history, looking for implications relevant to the symbolic interactionist theory of historical processes. It suggests that Mead's theory of time and theory of communication hold important implications for semiotic analysis of the historical dimension of sociocultural phenomena. A further aim is to link the symbolic interactionist tradition of the Chicago school with the Tartu school and its semiotics of history. This would fuel the further development of both theoretical orientations.     

试论乔治·艾略特女性意识的独特性--对《米德尔马契》的重新解读

对《米德尔马契》中多萝西娅从胸怀理想的非凡女性沦落到为妻为母的普通角色的生存现实的描写,女权主义评论从艾略特与女主角命运之间的巨大落差中寻找批评的靶实,认为作者对女主角的理想诉求的低调处理没有给女性指更好的出路。这种评论往往忽略了作品所蕴含的独特的女性意识:艾略特除了把女性"三寸金莲"般的心灵空间和边缘地位归咎于男权的无情压制外,还把矛头直接指向女性群体本身,即对女性自身的弱点与不足进行剖析和展示。女性尴尬的生存现实和女作家成功背后的艰辛与失落,使其在痛楚与无奈中完成对女性命运的反思和理性超越。女性应看清自身的不足,提高自己以求改善境遇,避免盲目地采取激进行动。     

论“J·阿尔弗瑞德·普鲁弗洛克的情歌”的语言艺术

"J.阿尔弗瑞德.普鲁弗洛克的情歌"是T.S.艾略特语言艺术精湛的典型范例。艾略特在诗歌中大用意象,巧用意象,并运用了丰富的文学和文化暗指;同时,借助拼贴、反复和组合前人作品中看似无关的片段等语言手段来突现诗歌中奥妙鲜明的意象,给诗歌的表达带来沉郁顿挫、一咏三叹的韵味,使灰暗、无奈的主调显露得淋漓尽致,充分展示了诗作丰富的内涵和外延,从而开创了一种新的诗歌表达方式。
