但丁的声誉与但丁政治理念在欧洲的命运

梳理了14世纪至19世纪后半叶但丁政治理念在欧洲的境遇及其与但丁诗人声誉的联系。除“俗语问题”外,但丁在《帝制论》中提出的政教分离的政治理念是他最初遭到反对的最重要原因,虽然在15世纪~16世纪欧洲文艺复兴与宗教改革运动中但丁的理论曾引起人们的注意,但17世纪~18世纪人们对但丁的低俗化误读使他的诗人声誉仍然下滑。但丁的声誉随着意大利民族意识的觉醒与呼唤民族解放的欧洲浪漫主义运动而不断走向辉煌,这一转折点就是意大利历史哲学家维柯。     

“Still Looking for My Jonathan”: Gay Black Men's Management of Religious and Sexual Identity Conflicts

This article looks at homosexual Black men who are heavily involved in fundamentalist African-American churches. These men describe themselves as “out as same-sex loving individuals” even though the messages preached by their church leaders and the doctrines of their churches are, at the very least, heterosexist, but more likely to be stridently anti-homosexuality. Not only do these men attend the churches they are parts of, but they are viewed as leaders in these churches in positions ranging from associate pastor to director of facilities management. The study uses structured interviews to understand how these men manage the conflict between a committed gay identity and a strong religious identity that says the two cannot coexist.     

农村校车安全事故背后的教育公平问题

近年来农村校车事故频发,使得校车安全问题浮出了水面。其实,校车不够规范只是校车事故频发的表层原因,而更深层次的原因却在于城乡教育资源配置的不公平。所以要解决校车安全问题,不仅在于规范校车、提高校车的质量,还在于合理配置教育资源,实现城乡教育公平。     

俄国政教关系的历史嬗变

政教关系即指国家政权同教会之间的关系。俄罗斯从拜占庭接受基督教以后,基督教作为一种文化现象一直伴随着整个俄罗斯社会历史发展的进程。教权与皇权之间的关系在不同时期也经历着不同的变化,政教关系的问题一直是国家与教会所关心的问题,但总体上保持着政教合一的局面。由于俄国的地缘政治,必然要求内部思想的高度统一,要求政教合一的一元化政治,但它对东正教自身的发展有着消极的影响。     

群体性事件之伦理辨思

群体性事件是当前影响中国社会稳定的重要因素。个体利益受损与诱因发生、负面道德评价与人群聚集、良心拒绝与暴力反抗的组合,构成了群体性事件演化的微观过程。以此伦理分析为依据,源头阻断群体性事件并有效消除其负面影响,不仅要强调社会管控,还要强调合法性、责任性、回应以及有效等社会管理核心价值的指导作用。     

向边疆布道:中华国内布道会史初探

中华国内布道会源于1918年8月中外基督徒在庐山举行的一次灵修会,七位著名华人信徒提议向云南宣教,先于1919年4月成立"中华国内布道会云南之部",后于1920年7月改称"中华国内布道会"。该会先后在云南、黑龙江、蒙古、四川会理开辟教区。该会开启了华人信徒边疆布道的先河,也是当时本色教会运动的一部分,女基督徒在其中扮演了很重要的角色。     

Collaborative Responses to the Demands of Emerging Human Needs

Abstract

The paper explores the disintegration and integration which exist between faith and religion and social work and learning. There is a brief explanation of Catholic Papal Teachings and Catholic Social Teaching as a demonstration of de facto concordance between social work and religion. The paper contains citations based on the current social principles of the Catholic Church, several recent papal exhortations and encyclicals. These readings highlight the need for good social work practice. The paper ends with some practical suggestions in ways to promote collaboration between the two fields of endeavor.     

社会认知偏差:群体性事件生成的社会心理启动根源

社会认知偏差是群体性事件生成的深层次社会心理现象,通过对山东部分地区进行抽样调查,并结合近几年来全国群体性事件典型案例的分析发现,生成群体性事件的社会认知偏差,主要包括事件诱因责任归因偏差、行为模式结果预期偏差和行为结果价值偏差。因此,改善法的实施现状,消除社会认知偏差;提高公众法律意识,优化社会认知;建立心理危机干预队伍,合理引导社会认知,是群体性事件社会认知偏差的有效干预对策。     

Regional Religions?: Extending the “Semi-involuntary” Thesis of African-American Religious Participation

This research examines religious affiliation and church attendance among African-Americans in three different regions of the United States to evaluate the thesis that the Black church represents a semi-involuntary institution shaped by historical dynamics of segregation in the rural South. We extend the analyses of others who have found the rural South to have distinctive church participation patterns by examining two nationally representative data sets (the 1972–1996 General Social Surveys and the 1984 National Alcohol Study). We explore both level and type of church attendance of African-Americans, and how patterns differ by region. Further, we refine prior analyses by (1) differentiating between members of historically White and conservative churches from those in the black mainline, (2) examining racial segregation, and (3) focusing on the type of church attendance (rather than just overall level). Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) and logistic regression models support the thesis that the rural South exhibits some distinctive patterns that make the semi-involuntary institution notion a useful concept, although patterns not predicted by the thesis are also found. The semi-involuntary thesis is also used to illuminate some church attendance patterns observed outside the rural South.
