Minority ethnicity,social status and Uyghur community involvement in urban Xinjiang

Using a dataset (n = 4,012) from a 2001 survey in Xinjiang, I examine the effect of minority status and social status on neighbouring behaviour in urban China. Data analysis indicates that Uyghur Muslims are more neighbouring than Han Chinese. However, there is no evidence that the Uyghur approach to neighbourhood interaction can be attributed to Uyghur culture as many inter-group differences fade away once ethnic parity in social status is attained. I use my study to consider some methodological approaches used in research on ethnic behaviour in China.     

当前"伊扎布特"组织在中亚发展态势研究

"伊扎布特"是一个国际宗教极端组织,20世纪90年代开始在中亚地区发展蔓延.当前"伊扎布特"组织在中亚的发展态势包括逐步实现公开化、合法化,政治化趋势明显,发展趋于社会化,在意识形态领域散布极端宗教思想;明显的暴力恐怖化倾向,与国际恐怖势力联手,向中国边疆地区渗透."伊扎布特"在中亚的发展态势给新疆及周边国家和地区的安全带来严重的影响.     

作为南方道德想像历史的《喧哗与骚动》

福克纳在《喧哗与骚动》中建构了美国南方的道德想像的历史,以建构的载体为标准,可以将之分为三个层面,即意象、南方神话与历史观,从而可看出基于不同的层面所建构的对于社会历史的解释,也即三种道德想像的历史:昆丁的过去与现在的共存及对现在的压迫;旧南方的辩护型的自我安慰;和福克纳的痛苦中的批判反思。与此同时文本中也将三种自我身份的建构呈现出来,即昆丁的他我、旧南方的美化的想象的自我、和福克纳的批判反思的自我。     

Ethnic differences in neighbourly relations in urban China

Using data collected in Lanzhou, this paper examines the effect of minority ethnicity on neighbourly relations in China. It shows that the Hui as a whole express a higher level of satisfaction at relations with neighbours than the Han do. It also shows that the Hui advantage is removed with key background characteristics controlled. Finally, this paper shows intra-group variation among the Hui. These findings suggest that social status is a better predictor of neighbourly relations than the focus on inter-group contrast in traditionality in the existing scholarship of the Hui. Both inter- and intra-group variation in urban life must be examined to attain a more balanced picture of Hui Muslims in China.

Generalized phase I-II designs to increase long term therapeutic success rate

Designs for early phase dose finding clinical trials typically are either phase I based on toxicity, or phase I-II based on toxicity and efficacy. These designs rely on the implicit assumption that the dose of an experimental agent chosen using these short-term outcomes will maximize the agent's long-term therapeutic success rate. In many clinical settings, this assumption is not true. A dose selected in an early phase oncology trial may give suboptimal progression-free survival or overall survival time, often due to a high rate of relapse following response. To address this problem, a new family of Bayesian generalized phase I-II designs is proposed. First, a conventional phase I-II design based on short-term outcomes is used to identify a set of candidate doses, rather than selecting one dose. Additional patients then are randomized among the candidates, patients are followed for a predefined longer time period, and a final dose is selected to maximize the long-term therapeutic success rate, defined in terms of duration of response. Dose-specific sample sizes in the randomization are determined adaptively to obtain a desired level of selection reliability. The design was motivated by a phase I-II trial to find an optimal dose of natural killer cells as targeted immunotherapy for recurrent or treatment-resistant B-cell hematologic malignancies. A simulation study shows that, under a range of scenarios in the context of this trial, the proposed design has much better performance than two conventional phase I-II designs.     

住房攀比与居民消费

本文基于CFPS微观跟踪调查数据,从地位寻求角度分析了住房攀比行为对城镇家庭消费的影响。结果表明：①家庭对自身社会地位等级的主观评价与住房面积、消费水平、户主学历等因素呈显著的正相关关系;②住房面积攀比对城镇家庭消费有明显的抑制作用;③社会地位高的家庭的消费行为对其它家庭的示范效应显著,即中国城镇家庭存在向上攀比的地位寻求动机。     

收入风险、金融教育与家庭金融市场参与

运用中国城市居民消费金融调查数据,基于因果推断的分析框架,采用倾向分值匹配法研究了收入风险、金融教育对家庭金融市场参与的影响。研究发现,收入越稳定,家庭开展金融教育的概率越高;金融教育显著提高了家庭的金融市场参与;按收入风险将样本分组后,上述结论依然稳健,且金融教育对不同家庭金融市场参与的影响具有非对称性。在对家庭收入稳定性分类的基础上,有针对性地增加金融教育的供给,提升家庭整体的金融教育水平,有利于提高家庭金融市场参与度,优化家庭金融资产配置,进而改善家庭金融福利。     

从政治实践视角看马克思人学变革

在对青年黑格尔派的批判过程中,马克思人学变革逐渐展开,他揭示了施特劳斯、鲍威尔、赫斯、费尔巴哈、斯蒂纳等的人论缺乏实践视域,本质上是具有普适倾向的人性诉求,他们对人的发展所做的政治哲学努力对现实政治的改善是乏力的。马克思人学变革与其经济学研究紧密相关,在对劳资
