World revolution or socialism,community by community,in the Anthropocene?

ABSTRACT

The idea of a Fifth International has been around for some time and the historical record is not encouraging. We have all been wrestling with the contradictions the Left faces. The transnational capitalist class has taken setbacks in its stride, while the Left flounders almost everywhere. No communist revolution has resulted in the capture of power by the working class. Now we are all confronted by a new, rapidly unfolding ecological crisis, the Anthropocene. I argue that the most effective response is to exit rather than attempt to overthrow capitalism and the hierarchical state by international revolution. Socialists in positions of authority in state institutions and capitalist enterprises can facilitate this process by enacting legislation that helps people to transition to new smaller-scale non-statist social units, such as producer-consumer co-operatives producing their own food and other essential services over time. Mobilizing the ideas of degrowth, anarching, and consumer-producer cooperatives in the digital age, I argue that under Anthropocene conditions democratic socialism is best constructed from the bottom up, community by community, networked in mutually nurturing relationships.     

Roads,tribes, and identity in Northeast India

ABSTRACT

Along with military expeditions and social and anthropological surveys, road-building projects were prominent strategies of the British in India when it came to dealing with tribes and territorialization of the frontier regions. Roads for territorial expansion and resource extraction were the core agenda of the colonial project in Northeast India. The post-colonial Indian state on the other hand built roads in the region for securing the borders, promoting national integration, and linking external markets. This article posits that road building has always been an act of power, which has at different times been aimed at smoothening relationships, securing borders, (dis)connecting people, enabling trade, creating spaces of contestation, or diluting boundaries between varied ethnic groups. The article analyzed the colonial state-making project through road construction and linked to the contemporary Indian state approach to infrastructure development in tribal-dominated areas of Northeast India.     

论现代西方政府权力的结构变化与平衡模式完善

20世纪前 ,西方资本主义国家的政府权力结构是议会主导型。 2 0世纪后 ,随着社会的发展和行政权力的扩张 ,政府权力结构由议会主导型向行政主导型转变。与此相适应 ,权力的制约与平衡机制也由单一控权模式向多元控权模式转变。现代西方政府权力的结构变化及其平衡模式完善 ,对我国的改革和建设具有重要的启示意义

不同精神状态下EEG序列复杂性研究(英文)

构造了与脑电的源熵相同的（０，１）分布随机序列，以及用白噪激励依据脑电构造出的ＡＲ模型而得到的ＡＲ序列来作为伪脑电信号。通过比较这三种序列的复杂度，证明了脑电远非随机信号，而是存在某种模式，这种模式可以由ＡＲ模型部分表示出来。在此基础上，对三种精神状态下的脑电序列的复杂度进行了双因素方差分析，结果表明复杂度可以显著地区分这三种状态。     

简论现代市场经济运行的调节机制

本文通过对现代市场经济运行调节机制的分析。认为市场经济运行的调节机制不是计划和市场机制的二元结合。而是在国家垄断基础上,国家作为宏观经济主体运用现代市场经济运行的市场调节机制对市场经济运行进行自觉调节。我把自觉运用市场机制对市场经济运行进行调节的模式称为计划市场调节机制模式。以区别于传统自由市场经济中完全、自发地市场调节模式。     

时谐偶极子在介质球头模型中的电位分布

考虑到脑电源的时谐性和头的电容效应,在电准静态近似下,建立了时谐等效电流偶极子模型;给出了其在均匀无限介质中和均匀介质球中的电位表达式;并正向计算了脑电源在非均匀各向同性三层同心介质球壳中的电位分布。最后讨论了时谐性和电容率对电位分布的影响。理论计算结果表明时谐性和电容率对电位分布确实有影响。
