The sexual in Chinese sociology: homosexuality studies in contemporary China

Through a meta‐literature review, this paper examines the changing contours of Chinese sociology of homosexuality in contemporary China. It unfolds the different theoretical orientations and methodologies that construct the modern male homosexual subject under major socio‐economic and political changes. Chinese sociology of homosexuality started in the reform era and has been dominated by Western knowledge production and the political ideology of the communist party‐state. Fused with the bio‐medical model and the state's modernization project in the 1980s–1990s, the sociological study adopted a functionalist and positivistic approach with survey‐based methodology in the main which focused on the etiology of homosexuality. A new transnational knowledge production of sociology of homosexuality has formed since the 2000s which has shifted towards a constructivist/ post‐structuralist approach and reflexive qualitative methodology. The new sociological study examines the rise of male (as well as female) homosexual identity in China, questions the hetero/homosexual binary and discusses how an individual makes sense of homosexual identity to form same‐sex intimate relationships. By tracing the epistemology of homosexuality in contemporary China, this paper rethinks the dominance of the Western construction and the role of the state in shaping the knowledge of homosexuality and proposes alternative spaces for theorizing Chinese sexual identities, desires and practices.     

Whither the virtuous cycle? Past and future trends in black-white inequality in educational attainment

The inequality in the relative years of education between blacks and whites has diminished dramatically over the 20th century. One possible explanation for this convergence is a virtuous cycle of parents passing on educational advantage, from one generation to the next, leading to an overall educational upgrading. In this paper we test the virtuous cycle hypothesis by estimating the three way interaction of cohort, race, and family background. We find that the convergence in educational attainment between blacks and whites over the past century was driven by processes unrelated to family background.     

论版权领域的平行进口

版权领域的平行进口既是版权制度的重要内容,也是国际贸易中不可回避的问题。一方面,它涉及到作者及利害关系人与社会公众之间权益的协调保护,另一方面,它又可能影响到一个国家技术贸易战略的实施。在比较观察的基础上,作者以前瞻性的态度确立我国在版权领域平行进口问题上的原则立场,具有现实意义。

Improving outcomes for children in out‐of‐home care: the role of therapeutic foster care

How best to support children and young people in foster care remains a challenge for child welfare. There has been little Australian research on the outcomes for children and young people placed in therapeutic foster care (TFC). This article aims to address this knowledge gap, presenting the evaluation of a state‐wide model of TFC known as the Circle Program operating in Victoria, Australia. Data sources for the study were case assessment analysis; surveys of foster carers, program workers and other stakeholders in the sector; and both focus groups and individual interviews with foster care workers. The evaluation found that the Circle Program lessened the number of unplanned exits of children from foster placements compared with generalist foster care. Another important finding was that the Circle Program positively influenced foster carers' decisions to stay in the carer role. Key components perceived as contributing to outcomes of the Circle Program included enhanced training of foster carers, intensive carer support, specialist therapeutic support to the child and carer, therapeutic service to family members and a network of services to provide support to the child.     

农户对公共产品需求的优先序及供给主体研究——以福建省永安市为例

在农户的视角下,从农户认为“对自己和村里人最重要的公共产品”和“最急需政府投资的公共产品”两个方面进行的聚类分析显示,农民自己最迫切需求的公共产品和最急需政府投资的公共产品的排列顺序有很大不同。这说明有些公共产品属于“俱乐部产品”,农民可以自己投资或者投资一部分;农民最需要政府投资的是自己急需但不愿意投资或无法投资的公共产品。建议尽快建立政府决策和农民自主决策相结合的农村公共物品建设体制。涉及宏观的、外部性强的公共产品主要由政府决策;外部性不是很强的准公共产品和俱乐部产品,则建立消费者参与机制,让农村社区居民参与公共物品供给的决策和管理。     

政治宽容：概念的厘定

政治宽容不是一种美德,它是一种允许不同政见存在并使它们得以和平共存的政治手段,其本质是建立和维护有利于政治统治与管理和谐的政治秩序。政治宽容的限度为宪法规定。据此政治宽容概念可界定为：政治宽容是政治权力主体在宪法范围内,通过尊重和保障政治权力对象的政治自由与权利,允许不同政见的存在并使它们得以和平共存,以实现有利于政治统治与管理和谐的政治秩序的一种政治手段。     

适应网络发展形势 加强大学生伦理道德教育
