林区农民对林改政策认知的实证分析——基于江西10县400个样本农户的调查

基于江西省10县400农户对林改政策认知和响应情况的实地调查,将影响农民对林改政策认知与响应因素分为两大类,应用描述性统计和相关性分析计量方法对林农对林改政策的认知与响应情况及影响因素进行实证分析.结果表明:林改程序相对比较规范民主,但农民对林改政策的认知仍然有限;集体林权主体改革实施到位率比较高,但“林地流转、林权抵押贷款、森林保险”等配套改革政策实施进度缓慢,农民对配套改革政策实施的响应度不高;农户对林改政策信息的获取能力以及政策信息渠道是否畅通是影响农户的政策认知与响应程度的关键因素;林改政策制度安排与政策实施程序透明度是影响农户林改政策认知与响应的又一关键因素.     

1930年代苏联构建集体安全的失败——一种基于“威胁平衡理论”的分析

1930年代,如何认识和应对德国法西斯的威胁是摆在欧洲各国面前的一道难题.苏联基于自身对威胁的感知,提出共同应对德国威胁的“集体安全政策”,最后以失败告终.从国际关系结盟理论视角来看,沃尔兹代表的“传统结盟理论”认为各国会制衡权力最大的国家,斯蒂芬·沃尔特在对沃尔兹批判的基础上提出“威胁平衡理论”,认为国家需要制衡对其威胁最大的国家,而不一定是权力最大者.从“威胁平衡理论”的基本观点来看,苏联建立集体安全努力失败的根本原因是欧洲各国对“谁是最大威胁国家”的不同认定,进而加剧了集体行动的难度.     

Building a Dignified Identity: An Ethnographic Case Study of LGBT Catholics

ABSTRACT

This ethnographic case study offers insight into religiously devout sexual minorities and the reasons behind their continued participation in an anti-gay religious institution, the Roman Catholic Church. I demonstrate how members of Dignity, an organization for gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) Catholics, strategically use their identity as gay Catholics to initiate action, to build community, and to destigmatize other religious sexual minorities. Members leverage this unique identity to push for change and equality within the Church. At the same time, this identity also allows members to see their continued participation in the anti-gay Roman Catholic Church as activism, a positive and affirming identity, thereby alleviating potential conflict and contradiction between their sexuality and their spirituality as Roman Catholics.     

Digitization and materiality: researching community memory practice today

Among the most deep‐seated anxieties of the Internet age is the fear of technologically produced forgetting. Technology critics and sociologists of memory alike argue that daily exposure to overwhelming flows of information is undermining our ability to connect and synthesize past and present. Acknowledging the salience of these concerns our approach seeks to understand the contemporary conditions of collective memory practice in relation to processes of digitization. We do so by developing an analysis of how digital technologies (image and audio capture, storage, editing, reproduction, distribution and exhibition) have become embedded in wider memory practices of storytelling and commemoration in a community setting: the Salford Lads Club, an organization in the north of England in continuous operation since 1903. The diverse memory practices prompted by the 100th anniversary of the Club's annual camp provide a context in which to explore the transformations of access, interpretation and use, that occur when the archives of civic organizations are digitized. Returning to Halbwachs' (1992) seminal insight that all collective memory requires a material social framework, we argue, contrary to prevailing characterizations of digitization, that under specific conditions, digital resources facilitate new forms of materialization that contribute to sustaining a civic organization's intergenerational continuity.     

The Institutional Construction of Collective Contracts under the Labor Contract Law: Dilemma and Solution

The Labor Contract Law classifies collective contracts as special labor contracts, ignoring the fundamental differences between collective contracts and labor contracts. This has plunged it into jurisprudential obstacles and institutional difficulties. In terms of the main entities, efficacy, dispute settlement mechanisms, etc. collective contracts have their own institutional characteristics. They should be incorporated into the legislative framework for collective labor relations in future legislation, and should link up with trade unions, collective consultation and collective dispute settlement to form a complete system of collective labor law.     

Social media time,identity narratives and the construction of political biographies

ABSTRACT

The question of identity narrative is at the core of the interaction between social movements and temporalities. In this paper, we draw on long-term qualitative research amongst activists engaged in Italian social movements and argue that identity narratives are often the result of a complex mnemonic, contradictory and open-ended process that spans through a life-time of engagement with multiple collectives. We then question whether the use of social media reshape these dynamics. The analysis shows that the construction of identity narratives on social media tends to take place with knowledge of the complexity and overlaps that characterise these processes online. Nevertheless, the temporality of social media, based on immediacy, archival and predictive time, challenges the unpredictable, contradictory, and open-ended nature of political identity construction offline. The need to escape the hegemonic temporalities of social media poses new challenges to activists in their creative agency.     

村级民主制度创新的实践与机制

当前的村级民主制度难以克服农村政治社会的现实问题。成都市的村级民主制度创新提供了一个可行思路,重点围绕村庄公共品供给、成立村民议事会和输入公共服务资金,在组织和规则的框架内动员村庄多元主体参与民主协商与决策。这种民主制度运行的机制在于：一是通过以需求为导向的资源输入方式激发农民参与的积极性;二是在组织和规则的框架内分层级地统筹与协商;三是平衡村庄多元参与主体的权利与义务关系。在上述机制的作用下,村级民主制度不仅运行成本较低,而且实践效果较好。村级民主建设的核心是要树立农民的主体性,而在操作步骤上需要有针对性、分阶段地推进。     

教师“教育理论失觉”现象

在教育教学实践中,“言理论”与“行理论”脱节反映了教师“教育理论失觉”现象。对教育理论作用认识不足,对教育理论的理解能力有待提高,忽视教育实践中存在的问题,以及迷失于对万能教学法的追寻是造成这一现象的成因。重视理论,内化理论,提升根植于自身实践的理论,是培育教师理论自觉的理想策略。     

‘Self’ (ziji), ‘others’ (taren) and ‘collective’ (jiti): Friendships at school embedded with China's Confucian–collectivist sociocultural values

Friendship, an important type of interpersonal relationship, has been studied in various disciplines. When studying friendship, sociologists highlight the importance of placing friendships in context to build up a connection between friendship, a type of interpersonal relationship between individuals, and the surrounding social and cultural environment. In sociological studies of friendship, children's friendships in the Chinese context have not been explored thoroughly. To contribute to closing this gap, this article places children's peer friendships in a rural Chinese primary boarding school context and focuses on exploring Chinese Confucian – collectivist sociocultural values that emerged in these children's daily practices of peer friendships.
