How Employed Mothers in Australia Find Time for Both Market Work and Childcare

Time use studies find that employed mothers reduce their parental childcare time by much less than an hour for every hour they spend in market work. This paper uses data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics Time Use Survey 1997 (4,059 randomly selected households) to investigate how employed mothers manage to avoid a one-for-one trade-off between work and childcare. It compares the time allocation of employed fathers, employed mothers and non-employed mothers and finds that parents use non-parental childcare to reschedule as well as to replace their own childcare, that employed mothers reschedule activities from weekdays to weekends or to earlier or later in the day, and spend less time than other mothers in housework, childfree leisure and personal care.

均势和平论剖析

均势是个理论内涵丰富,实践操作复杂的国际战略,从近代以来它一直为西方政治家、战略家和外交家所推崇,因为他们相信均势能够给“自然状态”下的国际社会带来和平愿景。本文对国际国内学术界关于和平与均势的定义、特征、分类以及均势的功用等方面所取得的研究成果进行梳理,对国际关系理论范式关于均势与和平互动解读的得失作一个客观性评价。     

刑事证人不出庭作证制度研究--证人问题研究的新视角

在我国刑事诉讼改革的进程中,证人出庭问题始终是个不容回避的问题。它对我国庭审方式的改革和一系列相关制度的建立和完善有举足轻重的作用。而当前我国对证人出庭问题的研究明显存在偏差,没有区分不出庭证人的具体情况,忽视证人不出庭价值的研究和证人不出庭制度的完善。本文没有具体论述证人不出庭的制度,只是引出问题解决的思路,起个抛砖引玉的作用。     

和谐社会运行机制研究

本文运用管理学原理中的基本思想,从分析社会运行的基本原理出发,提出社会的良性运行、协调发展需要以有效的动力机制和矛盾制衡机制为保障,动力机制激发社会活力,促进社会发展,矛盾制衡机制则确保社会系统各要素及各种关系之间的协调、稳定和平衡。同时,社会良性运行机制的建立还需要通过有效发挥政府、市场以及社会三者的功能来实现。     

个人生物识别信息的公益诉讼制度优化研究

个人生物识别信息公益诉讼制度建立在信息的公共性基础之上,能有效改善信息个人的弱势处境,缓解公权力与私权利的内在张力。公益诉讼制度介入到个人生物识别信息保护中,其法律依据是《个人信息保护法》第70条。当前,在适用上还存在着适用条件不具体、起诉主体顺位难确定、举证责任未合理分配以及不同公益诉讼关系未厘清等问题,需要细化具体适用条件、明晰起诉主体顺位、公平分配证明责任以及整体把握不同公益诉讼的衔接与配合,从而保障个人生物识别信息公益诉讼制度在实践中有效落实,实现平衡信息主体间的利益,维护信息公共安全的目标。     

Recent developments in D-optimal designs

In the paper, some issues concerned with the determining spring balance weighing designs satisfying the criterion of D-optimality under the assumption measurement errors are uncorrelated and they have the same variances are discussed. In addition, highly D-efficient spring balance weighing designs are also considered. Some conditions under which any spring balance weighing design is regular D-optimal or highly D-efficient are proved. What is more, new construction methods of regular D-optimal and highly D-efficient spring balance weighing designs are presented.     

Women Who Work: The limits of the neoliberal feminist paradigm

This article examines Ivanka Trump's Women Who Work, arguing that it represents the newest permutation of the neoliberal feminist subject. After providing an overview of the recent emergence of neoliberal feminism, I explain why the book should be considered part of the wider cultural landscape in which this variant of feminism has increasingly become commonsensical. I then turn to demonstrate how Women Who Work construes the ideal female subject not only as generic human capital but also incites her to invest in herself constantly, where activities ranging from professional workshops through hobbies to friendships are understood as practices that appreciate the value of the self. The conversion of women into generic rather than gendered human capital remains, however, incomplete, since the ideal of a happy work–family balance continues to serve as a push back to the wholesale erasure of traditional notions of sexual difference. Finally, I highlight that neoliberal feminism is erasing other long‐standing divisions and political differences. Not only does the private–public divide collapse, but so, too, does the distinction between one's private self and one's public enterprise as the self itself becomes an enterprise. This dual process of collapse and reconfiguration shapes the newest neoliberal feminist subject, the main protagonist of Trump's Women Who Work.     

Life Balance and Work Addiction Among NCAA Administrators and Coaches

Intercollegiate athletics represent an industry prone to challenges of work addiction and life balance. Work addiction and life balance domains in male and female intercollegiate athletic coaches and administrators (N = 245) were examined using multiple regression analysis. Higher levels of stress/anxiety, sleep disturbance, and career satisfaction and lower levels of quality of relationships and friendships were the strongest predictors of work addiction. Counseling focused on reducing the negative aspects of work addiction, while maintaining job performance, may benefit this population.     

论可持续发展的代价调控与实现

可持续发展战略是人类在面临一系列冲突和矛盾时所作的一种选择,任何一种选择都不会是无代价的,可持续发展战略也不例外。面对可持续发展选择下的代价及其产生的根源,我们可以做积极的调控努力,一方面可以从发展伦理学中汲取有益的启示,同时在代价调控的宏观目标设定上要保持代价与创价的博弈均衡。     

新型农村社会养老保险基金收支测算分析——以宝鸡市为例

农村社会养老保险制度是农村养老保障体系的重要组成部分.陕西省宝鸡市于2007年率先在全国进行了新型农村社会养老保险的试点工作.该制度实行以来取得了较好的效果,维护了农民的养老保障权益,为全国新型农村社会养老保险制度的建设和实行积累了经验.但是随着该制度的推广和时间的推移,能否持续稳定运行以渡过人口老龄化高峰期仍需进一步验证.基于宝鸡市的数据,利用模型构建测算了养老保险基金累积结余变化情况,提出了政策建议.
