农村居民家庭生命周期各阶段教育与培训消费研究

在对家庭生命周期理论综述的基础上,依据我国农村居民家庭现阶段的特征,尝试着把我国农村居民家庭生命周期划分为结婚生育期、子女成长期、子女离巢期、空巢期、鳏寡寓居期五个阶段。在结婚生育期,农村妇女受教育水平偏低,不重视婴幼儿教育。在子女成长期,农村家庭对子女成长中教育要求低,方法不当,教育消费支出不足。从结婚生育期到空巢期,农村职业技术培训发展缓慢,轻视培训,职业技术培训动力不足。鳏寡寓居期,老年精神文化生活单调。为此,农村居民家庭需要提高妇女教育水平,注重胎教与儿童早期教育,重视对子女教育消费与家庭成员培训水平,提高老年人的精神文化生活水平,实现教育与培训消费效益在家庭生命周期内最大化。     

消费异化与消费伦理建设略论

消费不仅是人类存在的基本方式之一，同时也是一种伦理现象。消费伦理思想源远流长。在消费社会，消费行为与消费的自然本质开始发生背离，造成了资源匮乏、生态环境恶化等一系列严重后果。探索消费异化的原因，确认合理的消费原则，引导人们逐步形成正确的消费观念和消费方式，对于促进社会经济的持续健康发展及实现人的全面发展，有着十分重要的意义。     

回归与超越——网络诗歌的文化特征

网络诗歌作为诗歌与网络传播两种文化相结合的产物，天生就带有强烈的文化属性。这种属性赋予了网络诗歌不同于以往的独有的文化特征，并藉此挑战着传统诗歌创作、发表、传播、消费的各个环节。此文从网络诗歌所具有的大众文化特征与民间立场、消费文化特征、后现代主义特征等三个方面对其进行了解读，并且提出希望网络诗歌在保持自身独立性的同时，能够承担起更多的社会责任。

Accurate Understanding of China’s Income,Consumption and Investment

Abstract

This study elaborates on the differences between resident disposable income in the flow of funds table and in the household survey; between household consumption in expenditure-based GDP and in the household survey; and between gross fixed capital formation in expenditure-based GDP and total fixed asset investment in the whole country as shown in investment statistics, from the point of view of their basic concepts and purposes, scope of specifications, data sources, calculation methods and data presentation. We show that the household survey somewhat underestimates household income and consumption, while investment statistics somewhat overestimate total investment in fixed assets. This does not, however, directly affect the accurate understanding of such major economic structures as the structure of the distribution of Chinese nationals’ disposable income among households, enterprises and government, the structure of final demand, etc.     

THE GHETTO FABULOUS AESTHETIC IN CONTEMPORARY BLACK CULTURE

With diamonds, mink, and champagne, black popular culture has, in recent years, made an audacious spectacle of conspicuous commodity consumption. Commonly termed ‘bling’, the ‘ghetto fabulous’ aesthetic of these flashy displays has prompted vociferous debate about the cultural meanings of contemporary black consumerism. Is it pathological? Subversive? Deviant? Since the nineties when it first appeared, the ghetto fabulous aesthetic has left its mark on a range of cultural productions from music videos to ghetto lit, fashion to film, walking a familiar line from defiance to bowdlerization, from raucous wild child of the streets to co-opted product tagline.

This essay explores a new cinematic genre within this repertoire, the ghetto fabulous genre of black film that has emerged to variously castigate and congratulate black investments in ghetto fabulous bling. Appearing at the close of the twentieth century, the genre reflects key shifts in the political imaginary and economic transformations of the ‘post-soul’ era. Drawing on two such texts, Barbershop (Tim Story 2002) and Barbershop 2: Back In Business (Kevin Rodney Sullivan 2004), studio films with all-black casts and directed by young African-American filmmakers, this analysis focuses on their engagement with contemporary cultural tensions over class and consumerism, their narrative containment of a transformative black politics, and their reconciliation of post-soul priorities with hegemonic discourses of the market. I argue that ghetto fabulous films are quintessential products of the post-soul era, their allegorical priorities in pointed accord with neo-liberal individualism and the promise of class transcendence. Performing crucial work of hegemonic cooptation, these texts offer archetypes of the ghetto entrepreneur and black enterprise itself as a salvational sphere for the urban poor. Reining in unruly desires, these texts draw working-class African Americans into the capitalist fold, articulating a post-soul politics that preaches black acquiescence with hegemonic discourses of advanced capitalism.
