Subjective well‐being in the new China: religion,social capital,and social status

We present the first nationally representative evidence on the relationship between religion and subjective well‐being for the case of China. Research on Western societies tends to find a positive association between being religious and level of well‐being. China provides an interesting critical case as the religious population is growing rapidly and the religious and socioeconomic environments are profoundly different from Western societies, implying different mechanisms might be at work. We hypothesize to find a positive association between religion and well‐being in China too, but argue social capital, for which strong evidence is often found in Western societies, is unlikely to be an important mechanism because religion in China is generally non‐congregational. Instead, we argue that the private and subjective dimension of religion matters for well‐being in China by helping adherents have an improved sense of social status relative to the non‐religious in the context of rapid social change and growing inequality. Our results generally support these predictions.     

从《多余的话》看文人瞿秋白的荒诞存在体验

《多余的话》是文人瞿秋白面对死亡考量自己短暂一生的荒诞体验书写。瞿秋白站在死亡的边缘,终于从"沉沦"中解放,获得了彻底的自由,发现了自己的荒诞性生存状态。命运的左右,主观愿望与客观现实的对立,真实自我与社会身份的疏离,失去了精神故乡的流浪,与现象生活的隔膜,所有这些都构成了瞿秋白的荒诞感。《多余的话》超越了阶级、政党和各种"名目",是文人瞿秋白源于生命存在的自由言说。

《周易》中正之道与人生

中正之道是《周易》全文倡导的一种思想,也是当代人趋吉避凶、和谐生活的一种有效方法.有中正继而达到合和,而要达到中正合和就需要人们日常的言行当位,当位进而处顺；而要达到中正合和、当位处顺,则需要正确把握时机,时行则行,时止则止.中正和合、当位处顺、时行则行、时止则止,强调的都是时、位、度的重要性,在合适的时间、合适的地点、做合适的事情关系到对度的把握,而度的把握更多的是需要一种智慧.     

No place called home: the causes and social consequences of the UK housing ‘bubble’

This paper examines the key causes and social consequences of the much debated UK ‘housing bubble’ and its aftermath from a multidimensional sociological approach, as opposed to the economic perspective of many popular discussions. This is a phenomenon that has affected numerous economies in the first decade of the new millennium. The discussion is based on a comprehensive study that includes exhaustive analysis of secondary data, content and debate in the mass media and academia, primary data gathered from the monitoring of weblogs and forums debating housing issues, and case histories of individuals experiencing housing difficulties during this period. This paper is intended to provide a broad overview of the key findings and preliminary analysis of this ongoing study, and is informed by a perspective which considers secure and affordable housing to be an essential foundation of stable and cohesive societies, with its absence contributing to a range of social ills that negatively impact on both individual and collective well being. Overall, it is argued that we must return to viewing decent, affordable housing as an essential social resource, that provides the bedrock of stable individual, family and community life, while recognizing that its increasing treatment as a purely economic asset is a key contributor to our so‐called ‘broken society’.

Children Selectively Trust Individuals Who Have Imitated Them

We investigated the influence of being imitated on children's subsequent trust. Five‐ to six‐year‐olds interacted with one experimenter who mimicked their choices and another experimenter who made different choices. Children were then presented with two tests. In a preference test, the experimenters offered conflicting preferences for the contents of two opaque boxes, and children were asked to choose a box. In a factual claims test, the experimenters offered conflicting claims about the referent for a novel word, and children were asked to state which object the word referred to. Children were significantly more likely to endorse both the preferences and the factual claims of the experimenter who had mimicked them. These results demonstrate that imitation is a powerful means of social influence in development.     

论马尔库塞的《爱欲与文明》中的人与自然观

马尔库塞的《爱欲与文明》一书中包含着深刻的人与自然观。依照弗洛伊德理论 ,人与自然的冲突起源于原始本能的“放荡不羁”,所以 ,要发展文明必须压抑性欲。但马尔库塞认为 ,对性欲的压抑不仅不能促进文明的进程 ,相反却隐藏着严重的人与自然的危机 ,对爱欲的约束最终将摧毁自然及人类自身。因此 ,要发展文明 ,只能通过对爱欲的解放 ,从而解放自然 ,最终达成人的解放     

形而上与形而下:后形而上学的解读--王船山的道器之辨及其哲学意蕴

作为中国古代哲学的总结者,王船山对于形而上与形而下之间的区分作出了不同于宋明儒家的理解.他的理解主要从两个前提出发:第一,之谓与谓之之辨,通过这两个语词的区分,王船山明确了形而上与形而下的区分不是世界固有区域的客观划分,而是根据主体的存在方式才作出的主观性划分;第二,有无与隐显之辨,通过这个讨论,王船山告诉我们,形而上与形而下之别是隐显之别,而不是有无之辨.王船山对形上、形下的如上解读意味着把哲学之思从形而上学框架内解放出来的努力,意味着后形而上学视域的开启.
