广西沿边"适应-竞争-合作"式 城镇演化模式研究 ——以凭祥、东兴为例

新时代不充分不平衡发展问题突出,加大力度支持边疆民族地区加快发展的要求迫在眉睫。广西沿边民族地区发展总体滞后,城镇发展模式趋同;东兴和凭祥在沿边城镇发展模式趋同的情况下,在“适应-竞争-合作”式城镇演化过程中,充分利用国家政策、发挥比较优势、培育优势特色产业、深化内外合作,实现了城镇经济的跨越式发展。本文以生物学“趋同进化”理论为基础,结合新发展理念和东兴、凭祥的发展经验建议：广西沿边民族地区采取“适应-竞争-合作”式城镇发展模式,以创新增强各城镇内生动力,以互补合作促进协调发展,以绿色发展道路助推城镇发展的可持续性,以加强内外市场的联动性来深化城镇开放、合作式发展,以“省-市-县”、“县-镇-村”的互联互通推进共享发展。     

A new tool for urban governance or just rhetoric? The case of participatory budgeting in Taipei City

Increasing interest in participatory budgeting has been observed in local governments around the world. This paper stresses direct citizen participation in the budgeting process leads to good governance, deepens democracy and improves social justice, while also highlighting some challenges in its efficiency and effectiveness. Unlike participatory budgeting, the Sub-borough Chiefs Forum is a community-based representative democratic mechanism; it could be regarded as a form of participatory budgeting in a broad sense. If so, then did the Taipei programme simply duplicate the goals of the Forum or lead to a better governance by making up for the inadequacies of the Chiefs Forum? To find out whether the Taipei participatory budgeting programme made a difference, we carried out qualitative and quantitative comparisons of projects passed under the participatory budgeting process and at the Forum. We also interviewed several participatory budgeting participants and sub-borough chiefs. The findings suggested that participatory budgeting and the Forum generated different proposals and budget requests, and the Taipei programme supplemented the shortcomings of the Forum and therefore led to deeper civic engagement and better urban governance.

自然人民事责任能力新论

民事责任能力在自然人民事主体能力制度中占有重要地位,它与民事权利能力共同体现了自然人民事主体的平等性;民事责任能力也是民事责任制度的理论前提,它体现和贯彻了自己行为、自己责任原则;它不囿于侵权行为法领域,在因合同、不当得利、无因管理引起的民事责任制度中也同样适用。民事责任能力的理念是通过自己责任实现人格独立。     

越南濒危民族语言的现状及应对濒危语言的政策

由于交际环境变小、与其它人口多的民族杂居等原因,越南的尔都、布依、仡佬、阿连和马良等少数民族的语言正在出现逐渐消亡的危机。要保留和发展这些濒危语言,笔者认为这些民族必须得到良好的普通话(即国家通用语言)教育,以便创造与各民族进行平等交际的环境。同时,要多种形式地组织这些民族的传统文化活动,为他们使用母语进行交际创造环境。     

论吴浊流小说中的祖国认同

文章以吴浊流小说中对于岛与大陆关系构成的叙述为探讨对象,意图从此一类叙述中,梳理出吴浊流如何揭示新一代台湾人的"我城"心态为一认识上的误区。此外,亦从吴浊流书写上述一类叙述时隐含的态度,论述吴浊流对于"中国"此一文化身份的认同并没有根本上的改变。小说中,当吴浊流终于确认了"我城"心态的不合理性之时,其实也就是否决了"我城"心态持有者对祖国由希望到失望这一立场的合理性。换言之,吴浊流其实也就是解决了自己徘徊于岛与大陆之间的认同困惑,确认了自身的祖国意识、原乡情结,实现了自身的祖国认同。     

文化视阈下构建党内和谐的路径分析

党的自身文化建设与党内关系和谐紧密相连,党内和谐孕育升华党内先进文化,党内先进文化促进党内和谐;实现党内和谐,必然要求党加强自身的党内文化建设,必然要求党内具有先进文化。文化的本质属性决定了必须加强党内文化建设;全球化背景下,党内文化建设面临着前所未有的严峻挑战。构建党内和谐必须加强党内和谐文化建设,将"四个坚持"进行到底,即坚持以马克思主义文化观为指导、坚持激发两大动力、坚持抓好四个着力点和坚持"五个相统一"。     

On hysteretic vector autoregressive model with applications

This paper proposes a new hysteretic vector autoregressive (HVAR) model in which the regime switching may be delayed when the hysteresis variable lies in a hysteresis zone. We integrate an adapted multivariate Student-t distribution from amending the scale mixtures of normal distributions. This HVAR model allows for a higher degree of flexibility in the degrees of freedom for each time series. We use the proposed model to test for a causal relationship between any two target time series. Using posterior odds ratios, we overcome the limitations of the classical approach to multiple testing. Both simulated and real examples herein help illustrate the suggested methods. We apply the proposed HVAR model to investigate the causal relationship between the quarterly growth rates of gross domestic product of United Kingdom and United States. Moreover, we check the pairwise lagged dependence of daily PM2.5 levels in three districts of Taipei.
