香港公立大学学术副校长之学术背景

在界定“学术背景”内涵的基础上,对香港八所公立大学学术副校长的学术背景进行了较为系统的描述与分析,结果表明：香港公立大学学术副校长全都拥有博士学位,且大都是国外知名大学毕业的博士,其学科背景呈现出明显的多元化特征,都有海外留学以及在国外大学或者科研机构工作的经历;在遴选方式上大都是“内部选拔模式”;在就职前都曾担任过本校二级学院院长等职务。

Comparing professional identities, attitudes, and views in public communication: A study of Chilean journalists and public relations practitioners

Public relations (PR) practitioners’ and journalists’ professional views and attitudes toward each other have been a subject of academic inquiry during the past decades; however, much of this research has focused on Europe and North America. In other regions of the world, for example in Latin America, historical developments and social understandings have led to slightly different conceptualizations of PR and journalism. Using Chile as a case study, this paper reports the results of an examination of Chilean journalists’ and PR practitioners’ professional conceptions. While both groups tend to have somewhat similar views of media relations and see themselves as part of the same profession, there are also important differences which are most likely based on professional socialization processes rather than educational backgrounds or sociodemographic and work related variables. Implications for contextually grounded approaches to the study of PR and journalism are highlighted.     

Public relations education in a divided society: PR, terrorism and critical pedagogy in post-conflict Northern Ireland

Most students entering higher education in Northern Ireland's two universities have experienced a highly segregated educational system since they were five years old. This context creates a specific set of issues and problems for the educator who wishes to engage with student groups in a critical analysis of complex and controversial topics within the curriculum. This article presents the results of a research project which was designed to assess student (and educator) experiences of studying the issue of ‘PR and terrorism’ at Northern Ireland's largest university. Data was gathered from undergraduate public relations students using survey questionnaires (administered before and after the teaching and learning experience). The educators engaged in this activity also report on their own ‘participant observation’ experiences and reflect critically upon the role academic staff might play in developing pedagogic practices which are accepting of diversity in respect to controversial and complex curriculum topics.     

公共财政投入农村社会福利事业和农业战略研究——以上海市为例

实现和保障城乡一体的农村社会福利发展,加强公共财政对现代农业投入是发达国家的基本经验。上海加大公共财政对农村社会福利事业和农业投入的重点应当是加强城乡一体的农村社会保障体系建设,在财权与事权相匹配前提下,建立科学的市、区(县)、镇三级公共财政支农体系。     

论新公共服务理论视域下的公务员服务意识

美国学者登哈特的“新公共服务”理论,将理论视角聚焦到公共生活的主体———公民而不再是“掌舵”的公共行政官员,提出了“服务,而不是掌舵”的新理念,主张公务员在其管理公共组织和执行公共政策时应该集中承担为公民服务和向公民放权的职责,工作的重点应该是建立一些明显具有完善整合力和回应力的公共机构。同时,新公共服务理论给予公务员以明确的定位———服务于公民,重视公民权,促进公共利益,重视人的价值。探讨新公共服务理论视域下的公务员服务意识,对强化我国公务员服务意识很有借鉴意义。     

民营企业发达地区城中村改造的困境与出路

本研究主要采用案例分析法和调查访谈法,对温州市L街道城中村的特点、现行改造方案以及改造中出现的问题进行了深入的剖析和思考,试图为深化该类地区城中村改造提供建议和思路。研究发现,改造中存在的问题主要为村民失去租金收入、外来人口流失以及产业转移的低效益,通过再思考发现关键在于现行改造方案忽视对村民的人文关怀、缺少对外来人口的关注以及产业转移补偿方式的单一。基于此本研究认为民营企业发达地区城中村改造应从留地政策、产业安置等方面进行模式创新。     

论海瑞直言进谏

海瑞是中国古代历史上直言进谏的典型人物,他的《治安疏》更是直言进谏的代表作。海瑞对嘉靖帝的＂君道＂之失进行了痛快淋漓的揭露和批判,对其崇道修玄进行批驳,对其以刑赏督责臣下进行批驳,吁请嘉靖帝翻然悔悟,与民更始。这样冒死进谏,需要有坚毅的心理品质和大无畏的勇敢精神,后人将其概括为＂海瑞精神＂。这种精神的形成,从微观的视角看,是海瑞母亲谢氏家教以及＂严师＂教育的成果;从中观的视角看,是明代海南文化氛围的影响;从宏观的视角看,是中国传统文化中优秀成分的积极影响。海瑞的《治安疏》及其直言进谏所体现出的海瑞精神,已经融入中国古代优秀文化传统中,成为中华文化的宝贵遗产,成为中华文明史中的精华,值得认真进行总结。     

基于人口结构的基础教育投资模型构建

研究人口结构与基础教育投资的数量关系对于基础公共教育政策制定具有重要参考意义。首先探讨了纽约、东京及英国等城市与国家的人口结构与基础教育经费投资的关系,找出影响因素并建立基础教育经费支出模型,以此为基础建立适用于北京基础教育经费支出的数学模型,是由基于低生育率、基于高人口密度及基于高人口成长率的三个子模型组成,并提供了参考数据,未来北京市可依据实际人口发展,有选择地使用三个子模型进行基础教育规划。     

公共服务型政府建设问题研究分析

中国理论界在公共服务型政府的思想理念和价值取向、公共服务型政府的背景动力和具体操作步骤等方面的研究,取得了不少成果,但还存在着一些薄弱环节和空白点。对公共服务型政府建设的理论研究成果进行系统归纳,分析研究格局和现状,进一步规范这一成果,从而提高指导公共服务型政府建设实践的有效性,十分必要。其理论意义在于尝试提出了公共服务型政府建设问题进一步研究的重点和下一步学术探讨的方向。
