Sexual objectification decreases women’s experiential consumption (but not material consumption)

The current investigation examined our prediction that sexual objectification decreases women’s experiential consumption but not material consumption. Three experiments provided converging support for this prediction. In particular, female participants reported lower tendency to engage in experiential consumption after recalling a past experience of objectification (Studies 1 and 3) and chose a material product over an experiential one after receiving objectifying comments (Study 2). Furthermore, Study 3 found that sexual objectification reduced purchase inclination of experiential products, and this effect did not emerge for material products. These findings contribute to the literature on sexual objectification by showing the impact of sexual objectification on women’s economic decisions and behaviors.     

Operational Risk in Financial Services: A Review and New Research Opportunities

We present a framework to describe and analyze operational risk in financial services from an operations management perspective, focusing in particular on process design, process management, and human behavior aspects. The financial services industry differs from other service industries in ways that affect the nature of the operational risks it is subject to. In recent decades, many books and papers have focused on operational risk in financial services; however, this literature has focused mainly on the conceptual and statistical aspects of operational risk management and not on its operational aspects. Operational risk in financial services has not received much attention from the operations management community. The framework presented here is based on the premise that operational risk in financial services can reap significant benefits from research done in the theory and practice of operations management in manufacturing industries as well as in other services industries. The objective of this study is to propose particular challenges and questions raised in the practice of operational risk management that may stimulate future research in this particular area of operations management.     

传播学视野下大学生村官推进农村马克思主义大众化的思考——基于山西省运城市的抽样调查

大学生村官是农村马克思主义的传播者。但是,通过调查发现,大学生村官在传播马克思主义过程中却遇到马克思主义理论素养不高、马克思主义理论信仰度不够、农村实践能力不足、传播意识淡薄、传播知识与传播技能欠缺等困境。为了进一步推进大学生村官在农村中传播马克思主义的效果,必须提高大学生村官的马克思主义理论素养,推动大学生村官的知与行的统一,加强他们对农村的认识,培养其传播意识以及提高传播技巧。

马克思主义时代化的历史必然及其进程

马克思主义时代化是一个根植于现实的土壤,在实践中不断拓展,在理论上不断丰富的命题。它之所以发生,是理论自身的内在要求和实践发展的客观需要。探索其历史进程,总结经验教训,才能更有效推进马克思主义时代化发展。解放思想、实事求是是推进马克思主义时代化的思想基础,科学对待马克思主义是它的理论前提。以解决时代问题为中心是它的基本目的,坚持世界眼光科学判断世界形势是它关键所在。     

法律选择中的最密切联系原则探析——以《涉外民事关系法律适用法》的规定为视角

我国《涉外民事关系法律适用法》明确了最密切联系原则作为法律选择原则的地位,但对于该原则的具体功能学界仍有争议。本文结合该法中关于最密切联系的规定,通过追溯最密切联系原则的渊源,着重研究该原则在法律选择中的地位和功能。本文在承认该原则在解决涉外民事关系法律选择中的重要性的同时将其定位为一项补充性原则而非基本原则,同时指出在法官适用该原则时为了防止权力滥用应该对其自由裁量权有所限制,希望能对该原则的司法适用提供帮助。     

交易获利机会损失的侵权损害赔偿

法经济学的一种通行观点认为,交易获利机会的损失在相当大的程度上并非"真实社会成本",而仅仅是不同市场主体之间的转移支付,因此原则上否定此种交易获利机会赔偿的侵权法规则具有合理性。提出该观点的早期文献系统性低估了交易获利机会损失事件引发的"真实社会成本"。实际上,如果坚持使用"真实社会成本"概念对侵权法规则进行分析,最终甚至会导致对物之损害赔偿的传统规则的正当性也发生疑问。适宜的作法是放弃"真实社会成本"概念而代之以"相对社会成本"概念,原则上将成本——收益分析限定于加害人与被害人之间的关系。按照此种思路,除第三人提供交易机会所导致的或具有合同法救济渠道的交易获利机会损失需要特殊处理外,并无效率方面的原则性理由支持侵权法一般性地排除交易获利机会损失的可赔性。

宋代专门编敕机构——详定编敕所述论

详定编敕所是宋代"以删立法令"为主的一个机构,设立于仁宗天圣五年(1027年),历经了从详定编敕所到详定敕令所的演变.它由提举、同提举、详定官、删定官和一定数量的胥吏组成.通过对"宣敕"的删、润、编,进行编敕,并在立法建设上取得了重大成绩,在宋代立法链条上是散敕上升为一般法律的重要环节,同时也是终端环节.     

现行成品油定价机制背后的税利博弈简

自成品油定价机制改革以来,成品油定价机制饱受争议,油价一直是人们关注的焦点。分析了国内需求拉动和国际输入型价格变动是引起油价上涨的主要原因;油价变动对用油企业、个人及产油企业的影响。随着我国国内成品油需求量日益增加,引发用油企业、个人及产油的上游企业与下游企业以及国家各方不断进行利益博弈,提出只有通过国家税收政策经济杠杆的调节作用,才能逐步调整各方利益及分配关系。
