有关社会科学方法论的反思——来自法学立场的发言

反思社会科学的方法论在当下我国尤有意义,在此方面,法学方法论可为整个人文社会学科提供一种有效的借镜;据此而言,吾人要在人文社会学科的研究之中深入反思并戒备科学(至上)主义,并重视规范主义的研究进路,同时尤要认真对待价值判断;而对于价值判断,吾人一方面要认识到追求价值判断的绝对客观性乃是行不通的,另一方面也不能由此就放任价值判断的主观恣意性,而须追求价值判断的正当化;但追求价值判断的正当性,则又需要一定可靠的方法和技术。     

沉重的文化变迁--读阿来的《尘埃落定》

阿来的小说<尘埃落定>透视出来沉重的历史演变的沧桑和异文化进入、本土文化沉沦的文化变迁给人带来人生无望和痛苦挣扎,使小说具有一种透视历史、透视民族性的震撼人心的效果.本文着重从人类学文化变迁的角度来分析<尘埃落定>如何反映这一段特殊的历史的演变带来的文化变迁及文化变迁给人心、人格带来的波动,以期对小说有更为深入的理解.并在这基础上对阿来及<尘埃落定>的写作进行分析.     

论消费动机的中介效应

随着以消费者为中心的超强竞争时代的到来,明确自我概念、消费动机与消费行为之间的关系对于商家而言意义重大。本文从综合的视角,通过实证研究的方法,深入剖析了自我概念、消费动机与消费行为之间的关系。结果显示,家庭自我、情感自我及交际自我对社会消费动机与消费行为的影响显著;社会消费动机在自我概念与消费行为之间的关系中起着中介作用。     

Exact confidence interval estimation for the difference in diagnostic accuracy with three ordinal diagnostic groups

In the cases with three ordinal diagnostic groups, the important measures of diagnostic accuracy are the volume under surface (VUS) and the partial volume under surface (PVUS) which are the extended forms of the area under curve (AUC) and the partial area under curve (PAUC). This article addresses confidence interval estimation of the difference in paired VUS s and the difference in paired PVUS s. To focus especially on studies with small to moderate sample sizes, we propose an approach based on the concepts of generalized inference. A Monte Carlo study demonstrates that the proposed approach generally can provide confidence intervals with reasonable coverage probabilities even at small sample sizes. The proposed approach is compared to a parametric bootstrap approach and a large sample approach through simulation. Finally, the proposed approach is illustrated via an application to a data set of blood test results of anemia patients.     

Responsive supply chain: A competitive strategy in a networked economy

Supply chain management (SCM) has been considered as the most popular operations strategy for improving organizational competitiveness in the twenty-first century. In the early 1990s, agile manufacturing (AM) gained momentum and received due attention from both researchers and practitioners. In the mid-1990s, SCM began to attract interest. Both AM and SCM appear to differ in philosophical emphasis, but each complements the other in objectives for improving organizational competitiveness. For example, AM relies more on strategic alliances/partnerships (virtual enterprise environment) to achieve speed and flexibility. But the issues of cost and the integration of suppliers and customers have not been given due consideration in AM. By contrast, cost is given a great deal of attention in SCM, which focuses on the integration of suppliers and customers to achieve an integrated value chain with the help of information technologies and systems. Considering the significance of both AM and SCM for firms to improve their performance, an attempt has been made in this paper to analyze both AM and SCM with the objective of developing a framework for responsive supply chain (RSC). We compare their characteristics and objectives, review the selected literature, and analyze some case experiences on AM and SCM, and develop an integrated framework for a RSC. The proposed framework can be employed as a competitive strategy in a networked economy in which customized products/services are produced with virtual organizations and exchanged using e-commerce.     

“金砖国家”经贸合作面临的机遇和挑战

为了克服传统的基于显性比较优势指数的非对称性缺陷,本文基于对称性显性比较优势指数构建了对称性相对贸易优势指数,根据该指数确定了金砖国家各自的优势产业和劣势产业,进而确定金砖国家相互间具有高贸易增长潜力的行业。为了进一步准确地衡量金砖国家间的贸易竞争和互补状况,本文基于对称性显性比较优势指数构建了“对称性贸易互补性指数”和“对称性贸易竞争性指数”,利用这两个指数从细分的产业层面研究确定了金砖国家内部任意两国之间竞争（或互补）的广度和深度。最后根据实证研究结论提出了深化金砖国家合作的对策建议。     

Estimation and variable selection for generalised partially linear single-index models

In this paper, we study the problem of estimation and variable selection for generalised partially linear single-index models based on quasi-likelihood, extending existing studies on variable selection for partially linear single-index models to binary and count responses. To take into account the unit norm constraint of the index parameter, we use the ‘delete-one-component’ approach. The asymptotic normality of the estimates is demonstrated. Furthermore, the smoothly clipped absolute deviation penalty is added for variable selection of parameters both in the nonparametric part and the parametric part, and the oracle property of the variable selection procedure is shown. Finally, some simulation studies are carried out to illustrate the finite sample performance.     

哲学与社会现实——吉林大学贺来教授访谈录

哲学关注现实的特有方式是,通过对现存世界的批判和超越去构造一个新的、"应然的"意义上的现实。哲学关注现实很大程度上是关注人和人的发展。当代中国最大的现实是让每一个中国人变得更加自由、独立,有尊严、更幸福。哲学关注幸福问题是当代哲学发展的主要趋势和重大主题之一。在哲学与现实生活之间,现实生活优先于哲学。哲学是人类幸福生活的仆人。哲学的任务和使命就是要真正服务人类,成为推动人追求幸福的思想力量。现代社会的基本特征是开放性、流动性和价值观念的多元化。社会要实现团结必定需要核心价值。核心价值观应能够真正融入心灵,成为人们自觉的共识。要达成这样一种共识,必须确立一种"为他人的主体性"观念,基于主体性与主体间性的统一建构一种新型的、关系性主体观念。现代性的建构是我们未完成的使命。中西方人所谈的现代性因其背后社会语境的不同而存在很大差异。我们应把现代性价值确定为时代的主流价值。努力把现代性价值确立起来,是当代中国知识分子重要的价值和追求。
