Partner Choice and the Differential Retreat From Marriage

The contemporary retreat from marriage in the United States has had a differential impact across socioeconomic and racial groups. Here, 1990 marriage rates and propensities for Virginia, North Carolina, and Wisconsin are analyzed regarding (a) the likelihood that persons in different groups ever marry and (b) patterns of partner choice with respect to race and educational level. Marriage remains strong in most race‐education groups but is substantially lower among Blacks and among those with less than 12 years of education. Patterns of partner choice have shifted to show greater symmetry between the educational levels of brides and grooms. Changes have been modest with regard to the level and pattern of interracial (Black‐White) marriage. Marriage is increasingly a union of equals, but a union chosen more by Whites than by Blacks and more by the well educated than by the poorly educated.

The Division of Household Labor in Germany and Israel

We compare the patterns of household division of labor in Germany and Israel—two countries that share key elements of the corporatist welfare regime but differ in their gender regimes—and evaluate several hypotheses using data from the 2002 International Social Survey Program. Although time constraints and relative resources affect the division of household labor and women’s housework in both societies, we find that in Germany the gender order of household labor is more rigid, whereas in Israel the spouses’ linked labor market status exerts distinctive effects. We also find significant relationships between gender ideology and the division of household labor. We discuss the theoretical advantages of approaching the comparative study of gender inequality from the vantage point of family and gender regimes.     

西安环境污染经济损失估算与分析

为有效监测、控制环境污染,保护城市环境,采用市场价值法、修正人力资本法和工程费用法等估算方法,对2002年西安市大气污染、水污染和固体废弃物污染造成的经济损失进行测算评估,通过各项指标和数据分析环境污染状况,给出西安市因大气、水和固体废弃物污染造成的经济损失估算结果。结论认为,西安市环境状况依然十分严峻,2002年因环境污染造成的直接经济损失高达7.30亿元。城市污染治理和城市环境保护由此成为西安市经济可持续发展的首要前提。     

大众化视野下高等教育质量问题探析

当前我国高等教育正处于从精英教育阶段向大众教育阶段过渡的重要时期。财政投入不足、教学基础设施与设备的相对滞后、师资队伍的数量短缺与结构失衡以及人才流动的全球化和科学技术的飞速发展使传统的高等教育质量受到严峻挑战。确立与大众高等教育相适应的教育质量观是高等教育改革与时俱进的体现。建立有效的高等教育质量保证体系是不断扩大办学规模的前提     

在传统的祭坛上——《白鹿原》女性形象评析

陈忠实的<白鹿原>是我国当代长篇小说创作中不可多得的含义深刻的作品,它体现了作者对传统道德文化回归的深切渴望,但同时又流露出作者对传统道德伦理的矛盾心态.小说中田小蛾等女性形象的塑造正是这种矛盾心态的体现,作品一方面表现她们在伦理道德束缚之下的不幸命运,一方面又以传统的道德伦理为准绳来审视和评判她们,使她们成为回归传统、重塑道德的理所当然的牺牲品.
