Do information,price, or morals influence ethical consumption? A natural field experiment and customer survey on the purchase of Fair Trade coffee

We address ethical consumption using a natural field experiment on the actual purchase of Fair Trade (FT) coffee in three supermarkets in Germany. Based on a quasi-experimental before-and-after design the effects of three different treatments – information, 20% price reduction, and a moral appeal – are analyzed. Sales data cover actual ethical purchase behavior and avoid problems of social desirability. But they offer only limited insights into the motivations of individual consumers. We therefore complemented the field experiment with a customer survey that allows us to contrast observed (ethical) buying behavior with self-reported FT consumption. Results from the experiment suggest that only the price reduction had the expected positive and statistically significant effect on FT consumption.     

康定市吉居藏语所属问题

本文针对分布在四川甘孜州康定市吉居乡的藏族语言进行分析。吉居话的语言所属在以往研究里没有共识，有属于扎巴语的意见和属于康巴藏语的意见。通过与藏文的对比，可见该语言为一个属于康巴藏语崩波岗方言群的土话，并非木雅语或扎巴语。基于与吉居话周边土话的比较，我们提出吉居话属于崩波岗方言群雅砻江组的假设性结论。本文的分析方法亦能作为识别康巴藏语中方言所属的参考。     

从《文心雕龙》“由内及外”的思维方式看其礼学蕴涵

刘勰《文心雕龙》无论是对理论体系的设置,还是对具体问题的论述,或是对总纲五篇的排序,抑或是用“文心”来为全书命名,均体现出一种由内及外的思维方式。而归根结底,这种思维方式源于南朝礼学,所以《文心雕龙》与礼学在思维方式层面具有鲜明的异质同构性。刘勰的思想精神与立身行事体现出其积极入世的儒家情怀,彰显出对礼学的热衷推崇,可以说进行礼学批评是其撰写《文心雕龙》的一个动机,以此敷赞圣旨,进而谋求仕进。因此,《文心雕龙》彰显出浓厚的礼学思想特色,具有深厚的礼学蕴涵,由内及外的思维方式正是其礼学蕴涵的表现之一。     

Can a Munro-Inspired Approach Transform the Lives of Looked after Children in England?

This discussion paper will examine the lessons from the Munro Review relevant for looked after children. Although the Munro Review focuses on child protection, we will argue that some of its key principles have relevance for understanding looked after childhoods. The Munro Review provides an analysis of the current state of the child protection system, challenging bureaucratised practice and arguing for a reclaiming of professional social work identity, knowledge and understanding. There are three key principles of the Munro Review that this paper will focus upon. The first two are the recognition that risk cannot be eradicated and the bureaucratisation of practice is an inadequate response to the demand for public accountability. The third principle is that ethical integrity lies at the heart of services for children in public care. The key message of this paper is that a Munro approach can transform looked after childhoods. However, the current ‘child protection’ model of social work in England may prevent this shift in social work practice.

身份、 知识与文学创作——基于汉代文学主体的思考

汉代作家是具有不同社会身份、 知识结构及审美取向的个体, 身份、 知识背景对作家创作有直接的影响和规约. 不同阶层、 不同社会身份的文学主体, 日常所关注的事务不同, 所思所想有异, 因此, 诉诸文学创作即形成了言说内容及主题话语的明显差异. 与身份相应, 不同的学术背景及知识结构,也会直接带来文学主体审美取向及话语方式的差别. 身份、 知识结构、 审美取向之异是汉代文学生成及发展的重要内驱力.     

马克思经济价值批判解析

马克思的价值批判蕴涵着他对现代社会中人之生存的物化和异化状态的反思和批判,在马克思的《资本论》手稿中,他着重分析了交换价值带有资本主义社会历史特征的特殊性,指出交换价值形式是人的物化存在形式。在这种特殊历史条件下的货币(交换价值)制度,实质上反映了社会异化状态下的自由与平等的丧失。而作为价值总体的资本,反映的是资本与劳动之间以交换为形式产生的对立,而这种阶级对立的解决将是人的自由全面发展的社会条件之一。
