Sometimes Words Just Ain't Enough – Enhancing the Contribution of Children in Therapy through Creative Expression

The meaningful inclusion of children in family therapy is an ideal that therapists readily align with and yet struggle to implement effectively. Within a practice that relies heavily on verbal expression, young children provide a unique challenge for therapists, who require developmentally appropriate opportunities for the child to express, document, and share his or her experience in all its richness and colour. In this paper the author utilises art therapy to support greater inclusion of children in family therapy by capitalising on their creative talents and facilitating the child's visual story within the family dialogue. This can assist in the formulation and treatment of systemic issues.     

《周易》中正之道与人生

中正之道是《周易》全文倡导的一种思想,也是当代人趋吉避凶、和谐生活的一种有效方法.有中正继而达到合和,而要达到中正合和就需要人们日常的言行当位,当位进而处顺；而要达到中正合和、当位处顺,则需要正确把握时机,时行则行,时止则止.中正和合、当位处顺、时行则行、时止则止,强调的都是时、位、度的重要性,在合适的时间、合适的地点、做合适的事情关系到对度的把握,而度的把握更多的是需要一种智慧.     

浅析和谐社会视角下人的发展

人的发展是整个人类社会历史发展的主题，人的发展与社会发展互为前提，互相促进，二者是同步前进的。在阶级社会，统治阶级虽然也关注人的发展问题，但最终目的是为寻求政治统治的合法性和合理性。只有在社会主义社会乃至共产主义社会才能真正实现人的自由全面发展。构建和谐社会的最终目的也在于促进人的自由而全面的发展。     

Sex and Gender Implications in Cases of Elder Abuse

This paper focuses on caregiving which has failed. Although little attention has been given to the role of sex and gender in elder abuse, an analysis of 77 cases of elder abuse seen in the Detroit area in 1981 revealed that both factors play a role in generating elder abuse, neglect, or exploitation, or in determining its form. Gender issues included: patterns of spouse abuse in old a e; gender differences in the types of abuse/neglect/exploitation wfich were perpetrated; gender concerns of the abuser which generate abuse; and sex or gender discrimination as a type of abuse of the elderly. Sexual factors observed included: parent-child incest; marital rape in old age; and problems of sexual malfunction which helped to generate the abuse. Suggestions for improved professional identification and management of elder abuse cases are made.     

No place called home: the causes and social consequences of the UK housing ‘bubble’

This paper examines the key causes and social consequences of the much debated UK ‘housing bubble’ and its aftermath from a multidimensional sociological approach, as opposed to the economic perspective of many popular discussions. This is a phenomenon that has affected numerous economies in the first decade of the new millennium. The discussion is based on a comprehensive study that includes exhaustive analysis of secondary data, content and debate in the mass media and academia, primary data gathered from the monitoring of weblogs and forums debating housing issues, and case histories of individuals experiencing housing difficulties during this period. This paper is intended to provide a broad overview of the key findings and preliminary analysis of this ongoing study, and is informed by a perspective which considers secure and affordable housing to be an essential foundation of stable and cohesive societies, with its absence contributing to a range of social ills that negatively impact on both individual and collective well being. Overall, it is argued that we must return to viewing decent, affordable housing as an essential social resource, that provides the bedrock of stable individual, family and community life, while recognizing that its increasing treatment as a purely economic asset is a key contributor to our so‐called ‘broken society’.

社会转型期助人被讹现象的人类学分析

历史经验表明,现代化过程往往会导致传统与现代在价值观、道德判断和行为规范方面的冲突;当代中国也不可避免要经历这些变化。通过分析助人被讹现象的特点、社会原因和道德后果,试图揭示社会转型期间两种伦理体系的冲突及其对个体行动者的影响。文章将首先考察"做好事被讹"现象的主要特征。大多数讹人者都是那些本该获得同情和帮助的年长者。再将探讨"做好事被讹"现象对社会的多方面影响,认为"做好事被讹"事件尽管少有发生,但它对社会信任、同情和道德互惠原则造成了重创。最后探究导致这种令人恼火的行为产生的多种社会原因,也广泛讨论了当代中国社会的道德风貌。     

人类学视野下的权力与文化表达——关于非暴力支配的一些表现形式

依权力的支配大略可以分为两种形式,即使用暴力或强力的权力以及使用非暴力的权力。前者更多是跟战争、强力以及暴力紧密相连,而后者则是在文明化社会之后的一种权力表达方式,是采用一种符号、象征以及让渡等等形式来达成的一种支配形式,在不同的社会中,其表现形式各有不同,但是这些都可以称之为是一种文化的表达。
