论英国浪漫主义文学对古典主义的继承与超越

传统观点认为英国浪漫主义文学与古典主义是两元对立的。本文通过分析论证说明,英国浪漫主义对古典主义来说,是“后来者”,后来者本身中总是包含着一种对先来者的继承、反抗和超越。     

Liberal dreams: Materialism and evolutionary civil society in the projection of nation in Southeast Asia

This article focuses on the introduction of ethnicity into Southeast Asia, as a component of the nineteenth century British projection of empire. The argument is that rather than projecting a cosmopolitan vision of community, British liberalism naturalised ethnicity through the concept of civil society. This presented a global vision of societies being independent and emerging from the local landscape. These liberal notions of civil society represent an early incarnation of self-determination. The British Empire in Southeast Asia emerged within this intellectual climate, and its early construction reflected this vision. In essence, the British Empire in Southeast Asia was founded on the nebulous idea of providing self-determination to Southeast Asian nations. This notion of self-determination was a qualified concept of independence, framed around opening these civil societies to British trading hegemony.     

Young Fatherhood and Subsequent Disadvantage in the United Kingdom

Although there has been increasing attention to the importance of fathers and their relationships with their children, few studies have examined young parenthood and its consequences for fathers’ life chances. In recent years, this has begun to change, and research is examining, to a far greater extent, the experiences of young fathers. Using data from a cohort of British men born in 1970, this paper uses a propensity score–matching technique to compare the well‐being of 344 men who reported becoming fathers before the age of 22 with men from similar backgrounds who did not. The findings suggest that selection into young fatherhood is substantial but, for some outcomes, significant differences remain.     

海权、霸权与英帝国(1688～1815)

英国在1688~1815的一百多年时间里,由一个一般的民族国家发展成为世界强国、海上霸主、殖民帝国,究其原因,海军与海权对英国这一阶段的发展起到了极其重要的作用。英国历届政府坚持把赢得制海权作为战略目标,把海权与海外贸易和殖民扩张三者有机地结合起来。三者紧密结合、相互促进,成为英帝国强大、繁荣的重要基石,也是英国在同西班牙、荷兰、法国争夺海上霸权的斗争中立于不败之地的关键。     

对菲利普斯曲线不稳定性的一种新解释

通货膨胀率和失业率之间关系,是菲利普斯曲线描述的基本内容,也是经济学争论的焦点之一。在所有有关菲利普斯曲线的讨论中,假定劳动供给曲线是正斜率曲线是一个基本前提。但劳动供给曲线不一定是正斜率,它既可能是正斜率、负斜率,也可能是水平或垂直线,正是由于劳动供给曲线的不稳定性,导致了通货膨胀率和失业率之间关系的不稳定,因此依据菲利普斯曲线来决策并不可靠。     

国外经济公益诉讼制度的理论与实践

当前,我国经济法存在着较大的可诉性缺陷,导致经济违法行难以受到制裁,社会公共利益难以得到保护。借鉴国外的经济公益诉讼制度,研究经济法的可诉性问题,具有十分重要的意义。横向比较国外经济公益诉讼制度的理论与实践,有益于构建我国经济公益诉讼制度和充分发挥经济法社会调整功能。     

失业背后的权力因素

以“经济高速增长下的高失业率”和“一些失业者不愿从事低薪工作”两个现象为切入点,从社会学的角度探讨失业背后的权力因素。在这两个现象的背后,是劳资之间权力的失衡:经营者能够利用不受约束的权力解雇工人,压低就业者的工资,压低到就业者不能接受的地步。因此,失业问题的解决不能仅仅停留在解决存量失业的层面,需要政府干预经营者的行为,从源头上控制失业。     

从传统反法到海上争霸─—中古英国对外关系的演进

１１－１７世纪英国对外关系的演进，经历了一个由与法国争夺领地的传统战争到与欧陆海上强国争夺海洋霸权的过程，表现出古代封建王室外交向近代资产阶级国家外交转变的特征。这一转变是封建盛、晚期政治、经济、文化等诸因素共同作用的结果。它对这一时期英国及西欧大陆各主要国家的发展产生了重大影响，为近代欧洲和世界关系格局的形成奠定了基础。     

英国高校学生事务的概况与特点—以里丁大学为例

英国高校具有学生支持的历史传统，但是学生事务并没有一个被广泛接受的模式和具体范围的规定。里丁大学学生事务具有英国传统大学和现代大学的双重特点。文章以该校为例，从学生服务部门的组成、个人导师体系和学生会等三个方面介绍了英国高校学生事务的概况，并以此为基础分析了英国高校学生事务的一些特点。
