略论英美宪法对公民人身权利的保护及对我国的启示

英美宪法比较重视对公民人身权利的保障,如对公民人身权利规定得比较全面详细,对逮捕、拘禁、拘留、搜查等措施规定了具体而严格的条件,并特别要求说明采取这些措施的理由;对公民人身权利的限制或剥夺必须遵循正当法律程序;确立了人身保护令状制度;重申了刑法或刑事诉讼法的一些基本原则等。这些"他山之石",对解决我国公民人身权利的保障问题具有一定的启示作用。     

The Experience-Earnings Profile: Productivity-Augmenting or Purely Contractual? Evidence from the UK

We test the human capital interpretation of the experience-earnings profile. Does the upward sloping portion of the experience-earnings profile reflect on-the-job training which in turn causes the experience-productivity profile to slope upwards, or do purely contractual factors determine the nature of life-cycle earnings. Herein, we provide additional evidence on the relationship between productivity and earnings by examining earnings differentials in the UK academic labor market for economists. Using a test first suggested by Mincer, we find that the empirical results are consistent with human capital theory. We find that, although the positive relationship between earnings and experience persists when individual productivity measures are included in the salary equations for lecturers and senior lecturers, the positive relationship becomes statistically insignificant when the same productivity measures are included in the salary equations for professors. For lecturers and senior lecturers, the experience-salary profile properly reflects the structure of the national pay scale rather than variations in individual research productivity. At the professor level, where individual salaries are not determined by a pay scale, the data support the human capital explanation of the positive experience-earnings profile.

从吐鲁番出土文献看高昌王国

本文用吐鲁番出土的大量高昌国文献,对正史中诸《高昌传》所记“兼用胡书”、“皆为胡语”、“俗事天神,兼信佛法”等作了分析和校正。指出这些记载不符合高昌王国实际,认为无论是语言文字、生活习俗,还是文化传承及宗教信仰,高昌王国都与中原内地具有一体性,她并非化外的异域,而是华夏之邦,是历史上中国的一部分。

纬书政治神话与禹形象的演变

在先秦至汉初的典籍中,禹是一位造福于民的治水英雄和人间君王。在纬书中,禹由凡人转变成充满神奇怪异色彩的受命圣王,从受命治水到受天赐、受天书,再到受舜,禅都是出自天命。纬书中的禹形象对后世史著和小说产生了较大的影响,如《吴越春秋》中禹出生、得天书、遇九尾白狐等情节都源自纬书,《博物志》等志怪小说多采用纬书中的资料。     

西域传说中的特殊国度

无论是正史"四夷传"还是地理博物类小说所记载的西域地区,都存在着小人国与女儿国这样的特殊国度。小人国的传说既有西南地区僬侥国的史实依据,也深受小大之言等俳词传统的影响;女儿国的传说既有西藏地区东女国的现实投影,也反映了印度传说的流播与接受;西域地区的特殊性使得这些传说在此地汇聚。这些传说除了满足好奇心与求知欲以外,更潜隐着通过强调他族的异质性以凝聚本族的文化功能.     

从一则史料看清王朝与琉球王国的贸易

The Promethean role of Europe: changing narratives of the political and scholarly left

ABSTRACT

The gradual abandoning of the ‘socialism in one country’ doctrine during the post-war period and the intensive transformation of European social democracy in the 1990s pushed social democratic politicians and intellectuals into the front line of advocates of a unified and powerful Europe. They contributed to the inclusion of social democratic and environmentalist values in the EU’s official narrative. The success of European integration and George W. Bush’s presidency created the narrative of the Promethean role of Europe. Scholars with a social democratic or environmentalist background created this narrative and it was also shaped by authors’ national contexts.
