Power and the perception of social networks

Previous work has led to divergent conclusions about how power affects the accuracy of network perceptions in groups and organizations. This paper develops and tests an argument linking higher power to less accurate network perception. Results from the first experiment showed that, relative to participants primed with high power, those primed with low power had more accurate perceptions of who was tied to whom in novel networks. The second experiment demonstrated that such differences in perceptual accuracy do not emerge for non-social relations.

当代中国法律体系形成过程中的权利观变迁及其启示

从权利观念变迁的视角出发,当代中国法律体系的形成过程可以划分为两个阶段,第一个是工具性权利观阶段,第二个是个体化权利观阶段,而个体化权利观阶段又可以被划分为意志论的权利观阶段和利益论的权利观阶段。不同的权利观反映了其所属阶段的社会生活状态,并将这种状态通过权利话语表达在法律体系中。权利观变迁的背后是在形塑主体性过程中自我与他者的关系变化,而权利冲突、权利滥用现象的普遍化所表征的利益论权利观的失灵恰恰源自主体在追求利益时对自身的遗忘。发展一种适合我国国情和法治实践的共同体权利观是解决权利冲突、权利滥用问题,完善我国法律体系的可行路径。     

海外人类学的风景研究综述

直至20世纪末,"风景"才逐渐进入海外人类学研究的视野,成为人类学研究和探讨的话题。海外人类学视野中的风景研究可以从三个脉络进行梳理:脉络一是将风景视为文化的建构及过程;脉络二是对风景、记忆与身份认同的研究;脉络三是对风景与权力关系的考察。海外人类学的风景研究对中国人类学界在该领域的开拓和探索颇具启发性。在中国社会转型过程中,中国的人类学研究者们可以在这个文化巨变的时代经由对风景的探讨,将地域文化的历史与现实、普通人的家园感/恋地情结与国家/市场的权力相勾连,深描一幅时代的图景。     

美国实施亚太再平衡战略的制度途径--TP P框架的权力分析

国际制度是国际社会在发展进程中,在民族国家之间的联系更为密切、互动更为频繁的基础上逐渐产生的一种国际关系现象。冷战结束后,美国凸显为国际体系中综合实力最强大的国家,成为占据体系权力结构中心的单极权力国家。美国在强调凭借军事手段塑造国际新秩序的同时,并没有放弃发挥国际制度的权力作用。美国在有效发挥其军事、经济、文化和科技等表现为具体形式的实体权力竞争力、吸引力和号召力的同时,强化了国际制度规则的构建和运用。     

Power differentials and identity formation: Images of self and other on the Russian–Georgian boundary

This article looks at how Russia places herself in relation to one of her southern neighbours, Georgia, and vice versa. Russia and Georgia have recently been engaged in a short but full-fledged war, hence their interrelationship has been intensely debated in both countries. Both Russia and Georgia are, as it were, poised ‘between East and West’.

As a starting point, therefore, we hypothesized that Russians would present themselves as a European nation while they would orientalise the Georgians. Conversely, the Georgians would define themselves into and the Russians out of Europe. We found, however, that identity construction on the Russian-Georgian border is not symmetrical. While the Georigan discourse basically confirmed our assumption, in Russia the dominant discourse is that Russia and Georgia are closely related, fraternal peoples. This shows the importance of power relations in the study of reciprocal identity formations.

While hegemonic discourses often are discourses of exclusion our study shows that a discourse of inclusion—in our case a rhetoric of ‘brotherhood’—often may be a more effective technique of domination. The prevailing discourse in the weaker group, on the other hand, will focus more on cultural distance towards the more powerful Other.     

Modernism,postmodernism and global standards setting

This paper discusses the key features of modernism and postmodernism, and critiques global standards setting from a postmodern theoretical perspective. The main areas of critique consist of the possibility of the creation of yet another totalizing discourse or grand narrative; debates around the particular and the universal; issues around representation; and power, knowledge and discursive formations. We argue that to treat modernism and postmodernism as a linear progression and as a bi‐polar categorization is to fall within the traps of modernism itself. We have thus avoided making a choice between modernism and postmodernism—between justification, objectivity, reason, universalism, proof and unity of science on the one hand and the postmodern emphases on language, power, and the particular, contingent and relational on the other hand.

Testing for Generalized Lorenz Dominance

The Generalized Lorenz dominance can be used to take account of differences in mean income as well as income inequality in case of two income distributions possessing unequal means. Asymptotically distribution-free and consistent tests have been proposed for comparing two generalized Lorenz curves in the whole interval [p ₁, p ₂] where 0 < p ₁ < p ₂ < 1. Size and power of the test has been derived.
