论德莱塞《嘉莉妹妹》中的哲学沉思

德莱塞之重要性在于:他通过对社会犀利的观察、深切的体会,率先在其作品<嘉莉妹妹>中真实记录了时代跳动的脉搏,展示出美国社会转型时期大众社会价值观的分裂性变化.德莱塞的<嘉莉妹妹>不仅是作家对机械论哲学观的演绎与证明,同时也渗透出作家浪漫主义的理想主义者的一面以及他对新兴消费意识形态的矛盾态度,从而构成他复杂的人生哲学与潜在的动态创作观,而这些主要应归因于他对生命意义的深沉的追求与探寻.     

An Exposure Assessment of Methyl Mercury via Fish Consumption for the Japanese Population

The objective of this article was to propose an exposure assessment model to describe the relationship between fish consumption and body methyl mercury (MeHg) levels in the Japanese population. Individual MeHg intake was estimated by the summation of species-specific fish consumption multiplied by species-specific fish MeHg levels. The distribution of fish consumed by individuals and the MeHg level in each fish species were assigned based on published data from Japanese government institutions. The probability of MeHg intake for a population was accomplished through a Monte Carlo simulation by the random sampling of fish consumption and species-specific MeHg levels. Internal body MeHg levels in blood and hair were estimated using a one-compartment model. Overall, the mean value of MeHg intake for the Japanese population was estimated to be 6.76 μg/day or 0.14 μg/kg body weight per day (bw/day), while the mean value for the hair mercury level was 2.02 μg/g. Compared with the survey data that tabulated hair mercury levels in a cross-section of the Japanese population, the simulation results matched the hair mercury survey data very well for women, but somewhat underestimated for men and all of the population. This exposure assessment model is a useful attempt at further risk assessment with respect to a risk-benefit analysis.     

文学接受与传播中的“《白鹿原》热”探析

《白鹿原》是广受读者和评论家热捧的小说。探讨其背后的深层原因、民族历史与文化的深刻反思是该书的新突破,文学叙事理念的回归使其具有阅读吸引力,中西方文化思潮相交融的背景使其具有较高的艺术品味和审美价值;出版体制的变革、文学消费观念的变化,文学商业化突出,使具有雅俗共赏特点的《白鹿原》获得读者共鸣。茅盾文学奖等奖项的获得、文学评论家的好评、现代传媒的介入也起到了推波助澜的作用,以上综合因素是《白鹿原》20年来经久不衰的重要因素。     

生态消费模式:社会主义生态文明建设的必然选择

当前,伴随着经济的快速发展,我国新富群体中存在着一种"病态式消费"现象,加上西方消费主义影响,引发了诸多的社会问题。实践证明,只有树立正确的消费观念、克制消费欲望、调整消费行为,才能建立生态消费模式,才能符合社会主义生态文明的要求,实现人与自然的协调发展。     

Making a difference: ethical consumption and the everyday

Our everyday shopping practices are increasingly marketed as opportunities to ‘make a difference’ via our ethical consumption choices. In response to a growing body of work detailing the ways in which specific alignments of ‘ethics’ and ‘consumption’ are mediated, we explore how ‘ethical’ opportunities such as the consumption of Fairtrade products are recognized, experienced and taken‐up in the everyday. The ‘everyday’ is approached here via a specially commissioned Mass Observation directive, a volunteer panel of correspondents in the UK. Our on‐going thematic analysis of their autobiographical accounts aims to explore a complex unevenness in the ways ‘ordinary’ people experience and negotiate calls to enact their ethical agency through consumption. Situating ethical consumption, moral obligation and choice in the everyday is, we argue, important if we are to avoid both over‐exaggerating the reflexive and self‐conscious sensibilities involved in ethical consumption, and, adhering to a reductive understanding of ethical self‐expression.     

我国消费、投资、净出口与经济增长

 消费、投资与出口通常并称为拉动经济增长的三驾马车，对经济增长产生重要作用。同时，经济增长也影响着它们的规模。针对这种情况，本文通过建立联立方程模型以及脉冲响应函数，对我国经济1978-2006年的历史数据进行实证分析，揭示我国改革开放以来它们之间的关系。     

调整利息税率对中国居民人均消费影响的实证分析—基于1985—2008年的经验数据

 本文通过所构建的居民消费效用函数模型，得到利息税率调整引起居民人均消费的变化量,并利用中国1985—2007年的数据估计出模型中的参数。通过实证分析发现：第一，调整利息税率对我国人均消费产生的收入效应大于替代效应；第二，调整利息税率对城镇和农村居民的人均消费影响的效应不同：提高利息税率对城镇居民人均消费产生的总效应相对较大，而降低利息税率对农村居民人均消费产生的总效应相对较大；第三，城镇居民消费时间偏好、储蓄效用因子大于农村居民的消费时间偏好和储蓄效用因子。     

Demand Systems Estimation With Microdata: A Censored Regression Approach

Demand systems estimation increasingly makes use of household-level microdata, mainly to measure the effects of demographic variables. Data based on these household-expenditure surveys present a major estimation problem. For any given household, many of the goods have zero consumption, implying a censored dependent variable. Techniques which do not take this censored dependent variable into account will yield biased results. We utilize a censored regression approach that is computationally simple, consistent, and asymptotically efficient. The results are then presented and compared with those obtained using an uncensored technique.     

北京市能源节约策略研究

能源节约与环境保护是北京市经济社会持续发展中的重要现实问题。本文首先介绍北京市能源发展现状,然后分析北京市能源发展存在的风险。最后结合国外各国先进节能经验,从经济发展模式、从产业结构调整、行业结构布局等方面来探讨降低北京市能源强度的路径选择策略和节能政策建议。     

消费伦理与现代消费主义文化精神

消费主义是消费社会的核心价值观。批判消费主义是当前消费伦理学的前沿性课题,追问消费主义的伦理基础是文化批判理论不可或缺的重要内容。自消费革命以来,西方消费伦理思想大致经历了两次变革:一是消费的去道德化;二是消费的伦理价值重构。两次变革一方面以过度消费取代了满足基本生存需要的自然消费;另一方面,还以奢侈消费为善的道德判断颠覆了节俭消费的美德传统。解读西方消费主义文化与消费伦理之间的关系,对于我们认清当前消费生活颠倒性的实质内涵具有重要启示意义。
