推动科学发展必须始终把握好的几个问题

发展是当今世界的主题,推动科学发展、促进社会和谐已成为我们这个时代的主旋律。努力实现以人为本、全面协调可持续的科学发展是科学发展观最基本、最内在、最核心的要求;党的基本路线是实现科学发展的政治保证;优良的党风政风是凝聚民心、带动发展的巨大力量;看科学发展是否上了水平,主要是看人民群众是否得到了实惠,要以人民群众评判为依据。     

西方20世纪文学理论的创新之路及其教训——兼谈对中国新时期文论的影响

西方20世纪文学理论走的是一条不断创新的路,譬如现象学开启或鼓励了文本中心主义及读者中心主义的研究路经,继其后的诸如新批评、结构主义、接受主义、解构主义等,依次更新了文学批评的研究方法,但它们几乎都是以某种片面修正上家的片面,以极端否定另一种极端,结果一条不断创新之路,成为不断自设陷阱的过程。这种创新是通过文学理论批评化完成的。应该吸取的教训是,创新不是目的,文学理论批评化不应该取代文学理论本身。对于这些理论,由于中国基本是多元共时性引进,不是线性追逐,选择空间较大,所以20世纪西方批评化的文学理论对中国新时期文论的影响还是利大于弊的。中国的文学理论建设应该以马克思主义文论为统摄源,介入价值论视角,直逼中国当下文学问题,加强原理性研究,走改造提炼、守正创新之路。

城市化视域下空巢青年的归因分析与理性审视

空巢青年的兴起与城市化息息相关.空巢青年,是城市化过程中的一种必然现象,是家庭核心化后家庭资源聚集的可行性产物,是青年个性发展和主体选择的结果.在城市化进程中助推空巢青年的健康成长与发展,需要我们打破标签,树立对空巢青年的理性认知和正确态度,正视空巢青年面临的困难及潜在的风险,构建城市共同体,推动空巢青年向筑巢青年转变.     

Guns,Money and Justice

In late 2005, Suzette Nicolas, then known publicly only as ‘Nicole’, alleged that on 1 November of that year she had been gang-raped by US Marines in Olongapo City in the Subic Bay area on the island of Luzon, site of one of two former large US military bases in the Philippines. Thus began what was to become an internationally notorious rape case, involving the US and Philippine governments, the US military, the Philippine judiciary and a broad feminist-led activist coalition. The case, played out against the backdrop of the US state's Asian front in the ‘War on Terror’, has become inextricably linked with the ongoing Philippine campaign against the US–Philippines Visiting Forces Agreement. This article looks at the case, its background, its symbolism and the current political debate on the ongoing connections between militarism, globalization, US imperialism and violence against women in the Philippines.     

Online lazy bureaucrat scheduling with a machine deadline

The lazy bureaucrat scheduling problem was first introduced by Arkin et al. (Inf Comput 184:129–146, 2003). Since then, a number of variants have been addressed. However, very little is known on the online version. In this note we focus on the scenario of online scheduling, in which the jobs arrive over time. The bureaucrat (machine) has a working time interval. Namely, he has a deadline by which all scheduled jobs must be completed. A decision is only based on released jobs without any information on the future. We consider two objective functions of [min-makespan] and [min-time-spent]. Both admit best possible online algorithms with competitive ratio of \(\frac{\sqrt{5}+1}{2}\approx 1.618\).

Ethics in context: essential flexibility in an international photo-elicitation project with children and young people

ABSTRACT

Existing literatures have discussed both ethical issues in visual research with young people, and the problems associated with applying ‘universal’ ethical guidelines across varied cultural contexts. There has been little consideration, however, of specific issues raised in projects where visual research is being conducted with young people simultaneously in multiple national contexts. This paper contributes to knowledge in this area. We reflect on our experiences of planning and conducting the International CYCLES project involving photo elicitation with young people in Bangladesh, Brazil, India, Japan, New Zealand, South Africa and the UK. While some issues such as varying access to technology for taking and sharing photos and diverse cultural sensitivities around the use of photography were anticipated in advance, others were more unexpected. Balancing the need for methods to be appropriate, ethical and feasible within each setting with the desire for sufficient consistency across the project is challenging. We argue that an ‘ethics in context’ approach and an attitude of ‘methodological immaturity’ is critical in international visual research projects with young people.     

Improving the Archiving of Records in the Out-of-home Care Sector

Abstract

Senate Inquiries into the lives of people who grew up in care, highly critical Ombudsman reports, and advocacy groups for recent and past “care leavers” draw attention to the significance of the records for children growing up in out-of-home care. This article reports on a project in which an interdisciplinary team of social workers, archivists, and historians worked together with 12 community-sector (nongovernment) organisations to look at the question of how to improve the management of the records for people with experience of out-of-home care. A Self Assessment Tool was developed and deployed at two points in time to provide feedback to organisations about the quality of their record-keeping practices. Clear improvements could be documented over a 2-year period in all 12 of the organisations involved.
