论丁芒新诗的诗思意识

在丁芒的诗思意识里,他所秉持的诗人个性情感必须与人民的利益、情感相一致的观念明显带有＂群我＂的、集体的、民族性的和阶级性的特征。在新诗体型的认识上,他主张新旧体诗的互相融合,创制出＂短小、集中、格律化＂的新诗体式,藉此表现＂人＂的生命体验、时代风云与民族心声。丁芒从20世纪40年代初——90年代末的新诗创作历程,诗思路径呈现出这样的流变过程：个我人生——社会人生——群体人生——个我人生。其诗境的创造主要表现三大类：抒写个我生命体验;反映现实苦难;讴歌战斗豪情与光明的未来。     

新女性主义的先声——评伍尔夫的小说《一个协会》

英国女作家弗吉尼亚*伍尔夫1921年发表的小说<一个协会>,以一群中、上层阶级妇女对传统性别观念进行反思作为主要情节,探讨了一个极为深刻的主题--女性对男性神话的批评和质疑.作者从女性的视角出发,对统治人类几千年的男性中心社会的政治、文化和历史进行了激烈批判,突出体现了一种20世纪60年代末才开始在西方广为流传的新女性主义思想,使这篇小说成为新女性主义的先声.     

论汉语诗歌语言的音乐性(上)——新诗音律研究

这篇长文写于1980年夏秋季,即23岁时,当时我在成都大学中文系的学习即将结束。此文后来一直放在那里,未刊。时隔三十多年,今天看来,这篇东西还是有其意义的:旧体诗词的格律被打破以后,汉语诗歌的音乐性传统如何在新诗中重新得到发扬?这远不仅仅是关乎诗歌的问题,也不仅仅是关乎汉语的问题,而且是关乎民族文化传统的现代转化问题。如果我们今天已经不能"原教旨主义"式地照搬中国古代文化的某些具体形式,那么,我们的民族文化传统精神如何才能得到弘扬?本文对汉语诗歌的音乐性及其在现代新诗中的体现形式的探索,可以说是为这方面的探索提供了一个具体例证。现在把它整理出来,一仍其旧,以存原貌;只是加上了全文的副标题"新诗音律研究"及各节的小标题。

The roles of human capital and social capital in the economic integration of new arrivals from Mainland China to Hong Kong

Although it has been hypothesized in the literature that both human capital and social capital are important for the economic performance of new immigrants, few studies have examined these relationships empirically, especially in understudied populations such as Chinese populations. This study simultaneously examines the roles of human capital and social capital in the economic integration of new arrivals from Mainland China to Hong Kong, using a random sample of immigrants. In the early stage of immigration (less than 6 months after arrival), we find little support for the presumed positive effects of both human capital and social capital on employment status among new arrivals in Hong Kong. Follow-up studies are underway to investigate the dynamic relationship between social capital and economic integration in this group of new arrivals, and whether social capital, especially friendship networks, plays a more important role in the economic integration of new immigrants 1 or 2 years after arrival.     

New cultural economies of marginality: revisiting the West Coast,South Island,New Zealand

Marginal regions have been the subject of political concern and remedial action in western states for several decades now. The West Coast of the South Island of New Zealand is an interesting case study in this regard, for recent economic growth has confounded earlier expectations of post-restructuring decline, while also contradicting several of the nostrums of new regionalism. In an effort to understand this trajectory, this paper draws on documents from public and private sector organisations, newspaper articles and field visits to examine developments in four key sectors of the West Coast's economy: mining, dairy farming, forestry and tourism. Economic growth is found to be closely linked to the cultivation of new markets for primary products, but efforts to rework the cultural dimensions of marginality have also been important. Value has been added to specific products through the insertion of references to the region's alpine and forested landscapes. Isolation and peripherality have been recast in more positive terms, echoing the broader reframing of New Zealand as a scenic, unspoiled destination. In adopting a cultural economic perspective on marginal regions, the paper illustrates the significance of symbolic forms of value, the potentially flexible nature of marginality as a discursive category, and the importance of the networks which connect regions to national and international flows of capital and tourists.     

Barriers to Help-seeking for a Gambling Problem: The Experiences of Gamblers Who Have Sought Specialist Assistance and the Perceptions of Those Who Have Not

This paper presents barriers to help-seeking data as reported by users of a national gambling helpline (help-seekers, HS, N = 125) as well as data pertaining to perceived barriers to seeking help as reported by gamblers recruited from the general population (non-help-seekers, NHS, N = 104). All data were collected via a structured, multi-modal survey. When asked to identify actual or perceived barriers to seeking help, responses indicative of pride (78% of HS participants, 84% of NHS participants), shame (73% of HS participants, 84% of NHS participants) or denial (87% of NHS participants) were most frequently reported. These three factors were also most often identified as the real or perceived primary barrier to help-seeking (collectively accounting for 55% of HS, and 60% of NHS, responses to this question) and were the only barriers to be identified by more than 10% of either HS and NHS participants without prompting. It was of note, however, that participants in both groups identified multiple barriers to help-seeking (mean of 6.7 and 12.2, respectively) and that, when presented with a list of 21 possible barrier items, NHS participants endorsed 19 of the listed items significantly more often than their HS counterparts. The implications of these findings, with respect to promoting greater or earlier help-seeking activity amongst problem gamblers, are discussed.

The Tunnel at the End of the Light: the Crisis of Transition in Hungary

The economic, political and social transition processes of the last two decades, far from being in harmony, clearly have a detrimental rather than an enriching influence on each other. These processes will never become harmonised just by themselves in a natural fashion. The worst obstacle of a successful transformation is that the chief actors, such as the government, the market and the representatives of the society. The Prince, the Merchant and the Citizen do not show the necessary commitment, competence and determination to create a new, effective type of partnership. This is a challenge which urgently demands answers on all levels of governance, economic and social life. This must be done in the frames of local communities, and on the regional, the European and the global levels. Nearly twenty years after the political turnabout, Hungary now needs a new social contract and must lay down the ethical, political, institutional and intellectual foundations for its twenty-first century democracy.

“Gimme a Pigfoot and a Bottle of Beer”: Food as Cultural Performance in the Aftermath of Hurricane Katrina

In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and the federal levee failures, hundreds of thousands of volunteers went to New Orleans to help rebuild. Food was quickly used as a way to welcome volunteers, to compensate them for their hard work, to celebrate progress in rebuilding community, and to interact with others. In time, however, the giving and consuming of food was renegotiated. Volunteers coming to New Orleans expected meals representative of New Orleans's foodways. This article looks at the cultural performance of food in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. In particular, I analyze the symbolic exchanges of food in what I call performances of reciprocity and performances of solidarity. This study adds to the burgeoning work in symbolic interaction on food, especially as it pertains to progressive spaces of cultural politics.
