再论历史流传物——文化实践解释学阅读札记之二

金元浦认为文化的历史流传物作为集体文化记忆,是作为当时文化事件的延伸活动被记录的,是由诸多个体记忆碰撞、对话、沟通、交流而形成集体记忆的。集体前理解正是通过不断生成的第三生成物调整、修正、转换,生成新的文化集体记忆和文化集体无意识,改变传统文化意识的既成结构,形成新的集群/民族文化心理共同体。史蝶飞等认为当代中国的新兴中产阶级通过都市化的报刊阅读、旅游文化和教育选择确立起了自己独特的品位结构与身份认同。中国中产阶级的崛起不能简单地根据收入和社会行为进行界划,也不能仅仅按照西方通行的理论看待这一现象,它受到了中国特色的政治、经济、社会和文化等语境的多维而复杂的影响。罗如春提出赛义德是后殖民知识分子中惟一一位系统探讨知识分子角色身份的思想家。赛义德心目中的理想知识分子的形象就是：以流亡者、边缘人身份,打破专业藩篱,秉持业余态度,坚持社会批判,面对权势说真话,成为普适价值的捍卫者。赛义德本人就是这样的知识分子的典型代表,他也表征了后殖民知识分子带有普遍性的角色身份及其认同期许。     

文化生态视域下阴山地域民族文化资源的数字化保护研究

从文化生态学的角度,对阴山地域民族文化资源进行数字化保护是促进阴山文化认同、实现阴山文化生态建设的重要技术手段。阴山地域各部门应该积极建设阴山地域民族文化资源数据库、展开多领域数字化合作和宣传,将数字化技术与文化产业有效对接,实现生产性保护等,有效促进阴山地域民族文化资源的保护和传承,实现阴山文化认同,全方位构建阴山文化生态圈,促进阴山地域经济和社会的全面发展。     

Culture, Cosmopolitanism, and Risk Management

Most cultural approaches to risk management deal with the connections between the forms of social relations within groups and the risk concerns of those groups. According to these theories, a certain limited set of different relational forms (usually three, four, or five) lead to specific, different and conflicting, risk concerns. In contrast to these theories, cosmopolitanism is an approach to culture that focuses, not on forms of sociality, but on changes among forms—expansions and contractions in the inclusivity of forms and movement by persons from one form of sociality to another. Relative to other cultural theories, cosmopolitanism thus is much more concerned with the solution of risk management problems than with their origins. Cosmopolitanism can be thought of as a cultural continuum, with cosmopolitanism at one end and pluralism at the other. Cosmopolitan persons are more open to cultural change—and thus the solution of risk management problems. In this article, we outline our new theory of cosmopolitanism, describe a method for measuring it and present an experimental study that tests some implications of the theory. Results from the study support the theory by showing that, compared to pluralistic respondents, cosmopolitan respondents are more inclusive in their risk management judgments—that is, they express equal concern for a local and a national issue, whereas the pluralistic respondents express greater concern in the local case. We discuss the risk management implications of a cosmopolitan approach to culture.     

New innovational outlier unit root test with a break at an unknown time

The Perron test which is based on a Dickey–Fuller test regression is a commonly employed approach to test for a unit root in the presence of a structural break of unknown timing. In the case of an innovational outlier (IO), the Perron test tends to exhibit spurious rejections in finite samples when the break occurs under the null hypothesis. In the present paper, a new Perron-type IO unit root test is developed. It is shown in Monte Carlo experiments that the new test does not over-reject the null hypothesis. Even for the case of a level and slope break for trending data, the empirical size is near its nominal level. The test distribution equals the case of a known break date. Furthermore, the test is able to identify the true break date very accurately even for small breaks. As an application serves the Nelson–Plosser data set.     

Modern likelihood inference for the maximum/minimum of a bivariate normal vector

ABSTRACT

We consider the use of modern likelihood asymptotics in the construction of confidence intervals for the parameter which determines the skewness of the distribution of the maximum/minimum of an exchangeable bivariate normal random vector. Simulation studies were conducted to investigate the accuracy of the proposed methods and to compare them to available alternatives. Accuracy is evaluated in terms of both coverage probability and expected length of the interval. We furthermore illustrate the suitability of our proposals by means of two data sets, consisting of, respectively, measurements taken on the brains of 10 mono-zygotic twins and measurements of mineral content of bones in the dominant and non-dominant arms for 25 elderly women.     

Structural changes and unit roots in non-stationary time series

The problem of testing hypotheses of a unit root and a structural change in one-dimensional time series is considered. A non-parametric two-step method for solution of the problem is proposed. The method is based upon the modified Kolmogorov-Smirnov statistic. At the first step of this method the hypothesis of stationarity of an obtained sample is tested against a unified alternative of a statistical non-stationarity of a time series (a unit root or a structural change). At the second step of the proposed method, in case of rejecting the stationarity hypothesis at the first step, the hypothesis of an unknown structural change is tested against the alternative of a unit root. We prove that probabilities of errors (false classification of hypotheses) of the proposed method converge to zero as the sample size tends to infinity.     

安徽省金融发展与经济增长的因果关系检验

文章从实证角度研究了安徽省金融发展与经济增长的关系,得出两个主要结论:一是安徽省金融发展是经济增长的格兰杰原因,是单方向的,即金融发展推动了经济增长而经济增长没有促进金融的发展;二是资本市场还不规范,它不构成经济增长的显著影响因素。通过对安徽省经济运行特点的分析,对产生结论的原因给出了合理解释并且提出了相应的政策建议。     

以文化产业化模式推动中华文化走出去的思考

以文化产业化模式推动中华文化走出去,是全球化和信息化时代的必要之举.这一做法既有助于促进我国贸易结构调整,弥补文化贸易逆差,又有助于提升文化软实力和国际影响力.文化创意是文化产业发展的制胜要素,文化内容的吸引力是文化产业赖以生存的基石,承载着文化精神的文化产品是中华文化走出去的重要载体.发展文化产业,应避免陷入泛文化化和简单经济化的误区,应该处理好文化经济效益和社会效益的关系,发展健康的文化产业.要多措并举,着力培育有利于中华文化走出去的文化产业化模式.     

文化产业发展中主流意识形态的反思及责任定位

主流意识形态自我批评和时代更新问题理应是当代中国文化建设的关键所在。面对文化产业泛娱乐化、主流价值观弱化等诸多问题的现实困扰,主流意识形态亟须反思其调整适应性的不足:话语体系的不适应、价值引导的有效作用机制缺乏、解释和回应职能的缺失等。这需要主流意识形态以一种"前所未有"的姿态认真地回应挑战,即以主流意识形态责任上的担当、意识上的自觉更为有效地发挥主流意识形态对文化产业的现实引导力,深刻回应文化产业中主流意识形态应引导什么、如何引导等命题,以此为文化产业更好发展、马克思主义真正发挥理论掌握群众的实际效果提供现实基础。     

析托妮·莫里森小说《柏油孩子》的黑人女权主义话语

从女权主义话语的视角对莫里森的小说《柏油孩子》进行关照,诠释小说中体现女权主义话语的"黑色"声音、黑人女性文化身份的认同与颠覆以及消解、重构黑人女权主义话语的路径——喻指。小说以人名、物名、地名喻指白人文化主导下黑人女性的生存境遇,折射出黑人妇女在追求自我解放的过程中从"迷失自我"到"彰显自我"的成长之路,形成了独具特色的女权主义话语叙述风格。
