Sexuality Information Seeking and Sexual Function Among Women Attending In-Home Sex Toy Parties

ABSTRACT. Outside traditional risk-oriented public health campaigns, few sexuality education opportunities exist for adult women, particularly those in partnered relationships, that address issues related to sexual desire and pleasure. Data were collected from 677 women attending in-home sex toy parties to assess whether they sought sexuality-related information at a recent party they attended. Participants reported asking 765 questions at parties. The questions were analyzed for their content and for relations with sexual function scores. Question topics were varied, related to various domains of sexual function, and provided insight into the contributions that these parties may make to women's sexual health.     

欧洲中世纪有宪法吗

谈到近现代欧洲各国的宪法或民主政治,人们宁可到古希腊和古罗马的民主政治中寻找根源,而不愿将之与近代毗邻的"黑暗的"中世纪相联系.人们概念中的等级、特权和专制的欧洲中世纪是没有宪法的.但果真如此吗?本文以有别于传统宪法定义的方式,在对欧洲中世纪宪法进行科学界定的基础上,通过理论论证和实证分析,得出欧洲中世纪有宪法的结论.     

北约“新战略”与欧美关系

北约“新战略”是90年代以来西方尤其是美国的军事政治战略，它的基本内容是1.北约的“全欧化”；2.行动方式从“集体防御”转向“积极防御”；3.非联合国授权的行动。这种战略的目标是1.为美国的全球利益服务；2.北约功能的政治-军事化；3.构筑新欧洲的安全框架。这必将带来北约内部美欧关系的变化，表现在1.双方在安全利益上的一致与冲突；2.调整双方的权力与责任关系；3.“授权”问题上的矛盾难以协调。     

European identity: between modernity and postmodernity

The purpose of this inquiry is to rethink the concept of European identity within the framework of the Declaration on European Identity and the Charter of European Identity. It will be argued that those documents employ the modernist notion of a centered, rational, stable, autonomous and unified self. However, this idea of the self leads to exclusion and essentialism. In this way, European identity cannot embrace the multiculturalism of European societies. Thus, it should be replaced by a more flexible, dynamic and shifting concept of identity.     

Social innovation,an answer to contemporary societal challenges? Locating the concept in theory and practice

Social innovation discourses see in social challenges opportunities to make societies more sustainable and cohesive through inclusive practices, coproduction and pro-active grassroots initiatives. In this paper we are concerned first that the concept has been stretched in so many directions that it is at breaking point. We illustrate this by documenting the varied uses of social innovation in different academic and policy discourses. Second, we assume that, if social innovation is to be a useful concept for policy-makers, then it must tell us something about what adjustments are needed to develop an effective political economy that is social innovation ready. Finally, we argue that what is needed is more theoretical and empirical work to help social innovation to develop into an effective policy tool.     

欧美国家教师领导研究进展及其对我国教育改革的启示

教师领导是近20年倍受欧美教育管理研究者、政策制定者和实践者重视的理论,并被应用于教育改革实践,且产生了良好的效果。由官僚领导模式向专业模式转变经历了三次浪潮,触及到教师领导内涵,教师领导在教育改革实践中所发挥的作用等问题。这一理论对我国学校内部管理体制改革有重要启示。     

欧盟扩大后的多边治理

欧盟扩大被认为是对现有治理体系的一种外在冲击,它扩大了欧洲的公共空间,也使得这种公共空间多样化。在这种新的环境下,等级制的治理模式越发显得缺乏解释力,欧盟不得不采用更为灵活、分权和软性的治理模式。     

NEW MEDIA AND DISTANCE EDUCATION: AN EU-US PERSPECTIVE

This paper presents an overview of the development of new media in the secondary and higher education systems of the European Union (EU) and USA. A combination of driving forces in pedagogical thinking, technological progress and business models have raised new expectations for the wide-spread use of educational technology, such as by providing major market opportunities as in the adult training segment. Many public sector and private commercial initiatives for connecting schools to the Internet, first adopted in the USA, and then in member states of the EU, have met with marked success. Most of the secondary schools are, or are being, wired, if but to a limited extent. The diffusion of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in the EU schools is particularly rapid given their initially low penetration rate. If American organizations are indeed leading the development of online courses and programmes in the higher education sector, European universities have now realized the importance of investing in this field. However, for new media to significantly improve the educational process in the EU and in the USA, they must be embodied in the complex school or university environment, and be nurtured by new partnerships between business and the academy.

中国共产党创建时期的一支劲旅——留法勤工俭学运动和中共旅欧支部的共产党员

五四运动前后,超过1600名中国青年参加了留法勤工俭学运动。他们在法国、比利时、德国、英国等地通过各种形式"勤于作工,俭以求学"。其中的先进分子接受了马列主义,成立了各种革命团体和中国共产党旅欧支部,领导了勤工俭学生和华侨、华人的反帝爱国民族民主运动。还有一些同志,通过其他途径参加了中共旅欧支部的工作。留法勤工俭学运动和中共旅欧支部,为中国革命培养了一大批领导骨干和周恩来、朱德、邓小平等革命领袖。他们先后回国,投身于伟大的革命和建设事业。
