制度嵌入性与地方食品系统——基于Z市三个典型社区支持农业（CSA）的案例研究

针对日益恶化的食品安全现实,部分消费者退出了部分主流食品系统,转而纷纷采用替代性的地方食品系统模式。而在地方食品系统中,社区支持农业(CSA)是其最主要的表现形式。文章对Z市三个典型的社区支持农业模式(即消费者推动型、生产者推动型以及NGO推动型)是如何再嵌入到具体的制度情境中,从而解决食品品质不确定性这一问题进行了论述。同时,对于这三大模式之间的异同也进行了简要的分析。     

社区治理主体问关系:问题、成因与重构

社区治理主体间关系是一个关乎社区治理绩效的重要问题.当前我国社区治理主体间存在着权力冲突、关系混乱的状态,不利于推进社区的和谐与发展.社区治理主体间关系存在问题的直接原因在于社区治理明显的"行政化倾向",而这又根源于我国传统计划经济体制、行政管理体制以及文化观念的影响.要理顺社区治理主体间关系,需要综合平衡各种社区治理...     

试论农村环境保护中公众参与现状与提升策略

农民在农村环境保护中公众参与不足,总体体现为被动参与状态。这归因于农民在观念上欠缺整体性的认识,环境权利意识薄弱,农村环保公众参与的法律规定不明晰等。将农民的公众参与由被动化为主动有三大策略,包括健全农村公众参与环境保护的法律法规,提高农民的环境权利意识;加强环境信息公开,激发农民参与环境保护的主观能动性;发展农村环境保护的社会组织,丰富公众参与渠道等。     

以人口健康观看我国健康保障制度改革

人口健康观是将健康的概念由个体健康拓展到以人口为基础的群体层面的一种新理念．它关注的是健康而不是疾病。从人口健康观看,我国健康保障制度改革存在着许多认识上的误区,应该以社区健康为中心重建健康保障制度。     

从"公民参与"到"群众参与"——转型期城市社区参与的范式转换与实践逻辑

中国的城市社区参与是一种出于国家治理需要的自上而下的制度安排,居民的行动逻辑与行动策略以及政府与居民的互动过程呈现出不同的特点,社区参与具有很强的革命时期形成的国家动员、群众参与的传统烙印。群众参与理论对国家动员机制和动员技术、群众参与逻辑与参与策略,以及国家与群众的复杂而微妙的互动过程的研究,能为当前中国城市的社区参与提供更富解释力的理论视角。在动员居民参与社区事务过程中,基层政府和社区居委会采取地方性权威式动员,它是社会转型背景下适应城市社会变迁的一种新型的权力技术,既运用原有行政组织网络的强大动员力量,又借用基于人情的地方性互动网络等非正式因素,将社区居民纳入社区建设和国家政权建设过程之中。     

Incorporating human sexuality content into a positive youth development framework: Implications for community prevention

As approaches to positive youth development (PYD) gain momentum, the issue of sexuality – a critical component of human development – is being subsumed by ideological debates. In the current political climate, sexuality education is often relegated to biological and/or values-based approaches, neglecting essential relational and collective aspects of sexuality. Through the explication of sexuality as an important component of youth's social ecology, this paper provides a conceptual link between the goals of the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States' (SIECUS) Guidelines for comprehensive sexuality education and those of PYD. We argue that sexuality, as a normative part of human development, culture, identity, and relationships, be approached from an asset-based perspective, rather than a deficit-based perspective. We propose a framework that illustrates how aspects of sexuality are embedded within PYD contexts, and demonstrates how a sexuality education program rooted in SIECUS guidelines can further PYD goals across community contexts.     

Using GIS in community design charrettes: Lessons from a Japan–U.S. collaboration in earthquake recovery and mitigation planning for Kobe

Charrettes have become popular in the urban design field, especially for use among multidisciplinary teams of professionals and non-professional community stakeholders seeking to incorporate a rich array of expertise in short visioning activities. Geographic Information Systems are among the technologies with potential to provide sophisticated spatial information to charrette participants efficiently. This article reports on a charrette carried out jointly by teams from Kobe University and the University of Washington, Seattle, USA, using GIS to inform urban design in three neighborhoods affected by the Great Hanshin–Awaji Earthquake of 1995 in Kobe, Japan. The article describes the charrette itself, and discusses the utility of GIS, given the challenges of disaster recovery in a context of undeveloped institutions for public participation, and with participants of different linguistic and educational backgrounds. In combination with electronically storable drawing technology, GIS proved useful in enlarging the multidisciplinary and cross-cultural reach of urban design; in incorporating new layers of pre-prepared expert data, and in combining such data with dynamically-generated “advice maps” and design ideas. For GIS-based charrettes to become more widely useful in community-scale design in Japan, however, additional property-scale data need to be available.     

Unequal Partners? Local Government Reorganization and the Voluntary Sector

British local government has recently undergone its most far-reaching reorganization for twenty-five years. The impact of this reorganization was considerable within local authorities but it also substantially affected other organizations with which they worked at a local level. This paper explores the perspectives of voluntary sector organizations involved in social care: a set of actors which, prior to reorganization, had been encouraged by central and local government, through notions of partnership and through community care legislation, to undertake more direct roles in service delivery, consultation and strategic planning. During the consultative period prior to reorganization, many voluntary organizations reported that they had been marginal to the process. Reflecting on the process of reorganization itself, many voluntary organization respondents commented that it had been disruptive and provoked considerable anxiety. Post-reorganization, voluntary organizations felt that rebuilding of relationships was necessary and that the promise of partnership had meant little in practice at a time of potential crisis for local.     

面向未来的埃及教育改革

埃及实行免费教育体制,长期和持续的国家投入保证了教育在大众中间的普及,使埃及教育长期在阿拉伯国家和非洲地区处于领先地位。但随着全球化的日益深入以及埃及国内经济形势的变化,单纯依靠政府投入越来越不能满足人民群众对高质量教育服务的需求。埃及教育主管部门根据形势发展的迫切要求,一方面大力推进教育体制改革,力行非中央化的政策,在教育投入和管理上,加大社会力量参与的力度,加强了教育基础设施建设,提高了教师待遇;另一方面用先进的信息技术手段改造传统教育模式,并在教学过程中引入问责制度,保证教育质量不断提高,使其更好地服务于社会经济的发展。     

论欧共体反倾销退税制度

欧共体在反倾销立法之初就设立了反倾销退税制度,并在实践中不断加以改进,以纠正预期征收反倾销税可能造成的过度征税问题。了解欧共体反倾销退税制度,有利于我国完善反倾销退税制度。我国企业也应有效利用退税制度,维护自己和他国贸易伙伴的合法利益。
