论毛泽东时代的民族主义与外交

在毛泽东时代中国的政治话语中,民族主义有其特定的内涵且整体上是一个贬义词,但中国的民族主义以曲折的方式与各种思潮结合着,并影响着中国外交.文章首先分析了毛泽东时代中国政府对民族主义的认识及其在中国外交中的地位,然后以中苏关系为案例来阐释中国外交中无产阶级国际主义与国家民族主义的竞争共生关系,并对这一竞争共生关系进行理论...     

税法理念探析

税法理念问题是税法领域研究的空白之处。在当前非均衡发展的经济背景下,如何通过揭示税法的理念来衡平税收法律关系各方利益是我们研究的主要命题。通过对理念和法的理念的初步考察后明确了税法理念的内涵与功能。然后在提出了认知税法理念的途径之后,确立"无代表不得征税"为税法的元理念,并在此基础上引申出税收法定、纳税人权利本位和税收负担实质公平三个理念。     

信托连续受益人制度

在信托有效存续期限内设立多顺次的连续受益人,不但有利于委托人实现多数受益人受益的愿望、保障财产的安全和增值保值,而且还可以在课税环节上合法地节约一次以上的继承税,这是一般民法下的遗产继承无法实现的。信托连续受益人制度与我国现行法并无矛盾。该制度的引进,不但可完善我国信托法律制度,而且还将催生和发展我国的民事信托。

Medicare and Medicaid Reimbursement Rates for Nursing Homes Motivate Select Culture Change Practices But Not Comprehensive Culture Change

Components of nursing home (NH) culture change include resident-centeredness, empowerment, and home likeness, but practices reflective of these components may be found in both traditional and “culture change” NHs. We use mixed methods to examine the presence of culture change practices in the context of an NH’s payer sources. Qualitative data show how higher pay from Medicare versus Medicaid influences implementation of select culture change practices, and quantitative data show NHs with higher proportions of Medicare residents have significantly higher (measured) environmental culture change implementation. Findings indicate that heightened coordination of Medicare and Medicaid could influence NH implementation of reform practices.     

The LGBQ Social Climate Matters: Policies,Protests, and Placards and Psychological Well-Being Among LGBQ Emerging Adults

Sexual minority youth, including emerging adults, are at risk for negative health outcomes. Minority stress theory posits that heterosexism can contribute to these outcomes among sexual minorities. Researchers have tested this theory with respect to interpersonal heterosexism; however, little attention has been given to macro-level and environmental forms of heterosexism, especially among lesbian, gay, bisexual, and queer (LGBQ) youth. In this study, we examine the role of objective social climate (LGB state-level policies) and experiential distal and proximal environmental microaggressions on the psychological well-being of LGBQ emerging adults. Furthermore, we examine the role of LGBQ identity salience as a moderating factor on the macro/environmental-heterosexism and well-being relationship. Multivariable linear regression results suggest that living in a state without same-sex marriage laws is associated with greater self-esteem, whereas both distal and proximal environmental microaggressions are risk factors for anxiety and perceived stress. Furthermore, identity salience can ameliorate the effects of distal microaggressions and intensify the effects of proximal microaggressions and same-sex marriage legislation. Implications for practice with sexual minority youth are discussed.     

Transitions to adulthood in contexts of economic crisis and post-recession. The case of Argentina

The possibilities that are available to youth in contemporary Western societies are highly sophisticated and related mostly to the transition between secondary school and higher education, the first job placement, independent housing, lifestyle construction and the consumption of goods produced by cultural industries in a globalist world. Secondary education represents a main factor in terms of socialisation, training, access to employment, citizenship and youth identity construction, making it a key for public policies aimed at youth in Latin America. The article presents the initial results of a research project on transition processes from secondary school to employment in Argentina. The findings are based on statistical information and the empirical analysis of data gathered in two very different economic and social contexts: the first was one of the worst social and economic crisis in the country's history (1999–2003), and the second was a long period of economic growth and increased social welfare (2004–2012). The data are presented in response to the following question: How do different economic contexts influence the transitions of youth in different social class contexts? By answering this question, the significant role of public policies in generating better living conditions for youth becomes clear.
