Interactions among the human and organizational factors within the public sector regarding epidemic prevention and control

The management of human and organizational factors (HOFs) within the public sector directly concerns the efficacy of epidemic prevention and control (EPC). Insufficient examination of such HOFs has led to defective countermeasures. This study attempts to comprehensively identify the HOFs within the public sector critical to EPC and investigate their interactions with the weighted network theory. A total of 55 HOFs were identified, and their interactions were assessed and visualized in the Chinese context. Then, the established weighted network was analyzed to investigate the interactions and diagnose critical factors and sectors. The analysis shows that there are strong interactions among HOFs, and that the human and organizational risks emerging from administrative departments of public health, centers for disease control and prevention, and medical institutions act as the key risk sources in the complex interconnected EPC system, exacerbating risk and causing a significant domino effect. It is recommended that the authorities devote more resources to the core sectors and endeavor to reinforce those critical HOFs by implementing closer risk communication, collaboration, and response. This study may deepen and broaden the authorities’ awareness and understanding of interactions among HOFs regarding epidemic mitigation, and strengthen their capacity to perceive, evaluate, and manage these factors in a proactive and effective way, thereby facilitating the success of EPC.     

当代彝族社会转型与文化建构

彝族传统社会发展的缓慢性和不平衡性势必影响当代彝族社会现代化的进程。当代彝族社会转型是一种综合的社会文化变迁,它包括经济形态、社会结构和价值观念三个方面的转型,具有缓慢性、二元复合性和前趋性的特征。要充分估量转型过程中的负面效益。要力戒文化保守主义和文化虚无主义,以“三立足”为基础,即立足于彝族社会,立足于现代化,立足于民族文化土壤,建构一种有利于社会发展的先进民族文化。     

农户分化、信息分割与金融联结：基于信号传递博弈理论

为探索农户分化背景下,信息分割是否促使金融两部门在信息领域自发合作而形成一种新的金融联结即信息领域的水平联结,基于农户分化及其信息结构变化的现实背景,通过信号传递博弈模型,逻辑演绎农户分化—信息分割—金融联结的分析框架。研究发现,随着工业化、城镇化推进,农户呈现亲缘小型化、地缘远距离化以及业缘多元化等特征;农户分化导致还款能力信息和还款意愿信息在金融两部门分割,诱使金融两部门通过信号传递形成水平的信息联结模式。因此,建议以新型金融联结模式发展为着力点,创新农户贷款模式,助推农村金融市场高质量发展。
