The dilemma of recognition: Administrative categories and cultural diversity

Governments around the world combat inequality by means of group-specific redistribution. Some pursue redistribution that benefits groups, but also wish to avoid accentuating or even recognizing group distinctions. This poses a dilemma that they try to resolve by adjusting the category system used to target redistribution. There are three types of adjustment: accommodation (the multicultural approach), denial (the ideal-typical liberal solution), and replacement (a compromise). In replacement the targets of redistributive policies are constructed to avoid accentuation or recognition of inconvenient group distinctions, but still allow redistribution that benefits these groups. Replacement is increasingly in demand around the world because the disadvantages of multiculturalism are becoming apparent while denial is hard to sustain in the face of group inequality. The actual effect of replacement is little researched and less understood, however. Does it resolve the dilemma of recognition? Two examples–India and Nigeria–where replacement has been tried ever since the 1950s cast doubt on its viability.

再论用马克思主义世界观培养创新精神

科学技术创新和理论创新过程 ,是人类对物质世界和社会发展变化及其运动规律的认识深化过程 ,是一个永无止境地由浅入深 ,向更深层次延伸和向更宽广度伸展的过程。客观物质世界和人类社会发展变化及其运动是无限的 ,人们主观世界所达到的科学技术和理论认识都是有限的 ,都不是绝对的。与时俱进 ,开拓创新 ,是自然界和人类社会发展运动的内在要求。科学实验是发现科学、创新科学的必要手段。支持创新 ,允许失败。在科学技术创新过程中有失败的人 ,未必不是成功者 ;不求探索、没有失败的人 ,未必就是成功者。现代化大生产、现代化科学实验 ,是一个创新科学技术和理论的广阔天地。爱国并始终把国家的繁荣昌盛、民族的兴旺发达视为自己毕生追求 ,是我国历代科学家所共有的崇高品格 ,是中华民族的伟大民族精神的体现

Labor relations and technological change at Canadian Pacific Railway

There was a time in this fair land when the railroad did not run When the wild majestic mountains stood alone against the sun Long before the white man and long before the wheel When the green dark forest was too silent to be real For they looked into the future and what did they see They saw an iron road running from the sea to the sea Bringing the goods to a young growing land All up through the seaports and into their hands From “Canadian Railroad Trilogy” by Gordon Lightfoot The authors thank CPR managers and union officials representing CPR employees for their cooperation and patience in explaining the intricacies of the railroad industry. Special appreciation is extended to Jason Copping, Labour Relations Manager, for his facilitating our initial access to the company.     

树立马克思主义自然观

人类是自然界的产物。自然环境是哺育人类的摇篮 ,是人类生存和发展的物质基础。人类与自然环境是内在的依存、保护、改造和利用的关系。科学的自然观 ,是马克思主义的辩证唯物主义的基本原理 ,是认识和处理人类与自然界关系的唯一正确的思维形式。保护自然环境和生态平衡 ,是人类同自然界关系的内在要求。如果人类不顾自然界的运动规律 ,任意损害自然环境和生态平衡 ,其后果必然危及人类自身的生存和发展。现代文明社会不仅应该是社会经济、科学技术和文化教育高度发达的社会 ,而且也应该是保护自然环境和生态平衡、人与自然和谐发展的社会     

WTO规则与中国食品安全保障

食品是人们生活最基本的必需品 ,食品安全是关系国计民生的大问题。农产品和食品的质量安全问题 ,不仅困扰着国内消费市场的健康发展 ,而且严重地制约着我国食品的出口贸易。在中国加入WTO的情况下 ,必须构建中国食品质量安全的新理念 ,尽快使我国食品安全标准与国际食品安全标准相适应。食品行业的标准必须采纳国际标准 ,对食品工业必须实行强制性产品认证制度 ,对进出口食品必须实行严格的检测检疫措施 ,对生产、销售有毒食品致人损害的必须依法严惩
