先秦时期的听觉文化

在先秦时期,人们有着灵敏的听觉辨别能力,这是人们长期听觉实践的产物。夏商以后的声音世界里又多了丰富的人造声音。在听觉的社会性认识上,人们注重正常的听觉需要,反对听觉过度,能够描述声音共振现象,注重听觉的情感功能和社会功能。在听觉和社会事象的关系上,先秦时期的人们已经能够从听觉中窥探到政治色彩,充分发挥听觉在战争中的辨别与指导功能,发挥听觉在外交场合的悦宾功能,发挥听觉在法律诉讼中的察觉功能。不仅如此,先秦听觉还存在着听觉崇拜色彩,对于医疗养生有着重要的指导作用,有力地促进了音乐文化的发展,在日常生活中还有着丰富的体现。     

许明：审美学理的比照解读

美的认知结构包含美的客体系统、美感反应系统,由此对康德的纯粹美与依存美进行学理阐析。康德建构了德国美学体系,作出了巨大贡献,但其学理内核是主观唯心主义的。这就制造了封闭式的终端格局。许明在其《美的认知结构》中,突破了美的主体性与客体性以及两极化封闭格局,走出了这一困域误区,作出了某些相应的局部性超越,其论述表现为四个维度及相对应的理念。

唐代魏征执政思想的启示

唐代魏征关于执政者必须具有责任意识、公正意识和危机意识的执政思想,曾指导唐太宗李世民执政23年,成就了其功载史册的“贞观之治”。在新的历史条件下,汲取魏征这一执政思想的积极成果,强化共产党人对国家和人民的责任意识、对社会和人事的公正意识、对现实和未来的危机意识,有益于贯彻我们党的十六届四中全会精神,加强中国共产党的执政能力建设。     

论中国古代的司法时令制度

“刑以秋冬”的司法时令思想有确切文字记载的是春秋时期,但这一思想的起源还应早于此。自汉代起,“刑以秋冬”的思想逐渐发展成我国古代的一项司法制度,并最终在唐代得到完善。在发展的过程中,轻罪与时令的关系逐渐断绝,而关于死刑行刑的规定却越来越详细。司法时令制度的哲学基础是“天人合一”、“天人相关”的思想,其现实基础是以农业为主的经济状况。

Social security privatisation: the lessons from the Chilean experience for other Latin American countries and the USA

The purpose of this article is to analyse the economic and social implications of the privatisation of social security in Chile and to draw some lessons from the Chilean experience. The focus of the analysis is on the costs and benefits of the privatised system and its impact on social equity. Thus, the main section of the article is devoted to the analysis of the 20-year-old Chilean experience. This section is followed by a discussion of privatisation in other Latin American countries and the impact that World Bank's policies have had on the region. The last section looks at the lessons for the United States and argues against the establishment of a partially private plan in the USA.     

Life values,family support and psychosocial adaptation among older people in Taiwan: an institutional and community comparison

The purpose of this study was to investigate the psychosocial adaptation among elderly persons in institutional and community settings, and to explore factors influencing their adaptation. A cross-sectional survey was conducted with a convenience sample of 165 residents of four institutions (two assisted-living facilities and two nursing homes) and 209 community-dwelling elders served by a primary care centre, all located in middle Taiwan. A structured interview questionnaire was used to collect data. Results: community-dwelling elderly had significantly higher adaptation scores than those in institutional settings. Factors related to adaptation differed between institutional and community settings, with more variables influencing adaptation in the community than in the institution. Physical functional status was the major influence on adaptation of the elderly in institutions. Dietary support from family was negatively associated with adaptation in this group. Influencing factors for community-dwelling elders were more complicated, including perceived family emotional and economic support, personal life values and physical functional status. Implications: greater support from government, including economic resources and assistance in community care are needed to achieve the policy goal of ‘aging in place’. Further investigation of the influence of family interaction on elders' adaptation is needed.     

The performance of the income protection system for older adults in Ecuador and future challenges

The objective of this article is to analyse the performance of Ecuador’s pension system and the challenges it will face in the future. Over the last 13 years, the pension system has made significant advances in terms of coverage and adequacy. However, demographic ageing is straining the financial sustainability of the contributory scheme. In this context, a number of public policy areas are identified, in terms of parameters and structures, which, together with the expansion of non-contributory coverage, could provide a more equitable and sustainable scheme.     

旁观者心态与张爱玲小说的叙事策略

中国文学史对张爱玲一直有某些误解,其中之一就是张爱玲的“冷眼旁观”。她这种貌似清高的创作姿态,给很多读者留下了冷漠薄情的印象。事实上,张爱玲是个“外冷内热”的人,这也正是她的旁观者心态的本质。了解她的旁观者心态的表现与动因对于她的叙事策略研究有很大帮助,也有利于我们进一步了解她的创作在人性、历史、哲学等方面达到的深度。
