胚胎之争的法学思考--以二审法院判决为视角

无锡胚胎继承权案将受精胚胎在法律上如何界定这一难题带入公众视野。目前学术界关于冷冻胚胎的法律属性有主体说、客体说、中介说三种观点,以中介说为通说。二审法院从监管、处置权的角度做出判决可谓独辟蹊径,但对于本案中胚胎的性质、能否继承、当事人的请求权基础何在等实质性问题却予以回避。对受精胚胎的认识首先需要从其生物学本质出发,同时结合伦理道德、法律实践及大众认知等多个因素予以考虑。从受精胚胎发展的不同阶段出发,采客体说,将本案受精胚胎认定为可予继承的物,才能使当事人拥有请求权基础以及顺利承继合同利益,也是平息各方争议的最佳选择。     

Virtual Interpersonal Touch and Digital Chameleons

We studied the characteristics of hand touch with a mechanical device that approximated a handshake, and we then examined the effect of handshake mimicry on assessment of a partner. Two participants interacted with a force-feedback joystick that recorded each of their hand movements individually. The two participants then greeted one another by feeling the recording of the other person’s movements via the force-feedback device. For each dyad, one of the participants actually received his or her own virtual handshake back under the guise that it was the other person’s virtual handshake. Results demonstrated three significant findings. First, for any given participant, a metric that took into account position, angle, speed, and acceleration of the hand movements correlated highly within individuals across two handshakes. Second, across participants, these metrics demonstrated specific differences by gender. Finally, there was an interaction between gender and mimicry, such that male participants liked people who mimicked their handshakes more than female participants did. We discuss the implications of these findings and relate them to theories of social interaction.

试论开发性金融机构的盈利性目标

国家开发银行作为政府的开发性金融机构,是一种特殊的经济组织。其是否追求盈利,决定了其不同的经营方针和经营模式,这是财政融资与市场化融资的分野所在,也是开发性金融与政策性金融的根本区别。本文在此基础上解释了开发性金融机构盈利性目标的内涵,开发性金融机构的盈利模式,并论证了其为什么需要注重盈利性目标,并实现政策性目标与盈利性目标的协调统一。     

Arranging sensations: smell and taste in augmented and virtual reality

The development of digital taste and smell underscores the importance of cultural dimensions of bodily perception in augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) devices. This can be seen in Vocktail and Season Traveller, two digital devices incorporating taste and smell. Vocktail is an AR technology that augments the experience of drinking water, or even air, through the electrical stimulation of tastebuds and the manipulation of color and smell. Season Traveller is a VR game in which the user moves through four seasonal landscapes. It uses wind, odor, and temperature in addition to the more standard audio-visual displays. The cultural dimensions of these devices can be examined using phenomenological terms. They instigate perceptual circuits, and call on and create sedimented habits. Although VR and AR are often thought of in terms of their similitude to reality, understanding Vocktail and Season Traveller this way illustrates the world-creating dimension of multisensory devices. These technologies structure and shift thresholds of taste and smell, reworking past perceptual styles and habits to develop new perceptual experiences. In so doing, Season Traveller and Vocktail throw to the fore questions about the conditions according to which people exercise their senses in digitally dominated environments.     

关于"申论"写作的几点思考

“申论”作为国家选拔公务员的一种测试方式,不仅成为当今中国竞争最激烈的考试形式之一,同时也为传统写作教学提供了新的研究视角。其一,评判性阅读是“申论”写作的起点。“申论”的含义,是针对背景资料所蕴含的某个社会问题阐述观点、论述理由,因而学会解读、发现、开掘,是“教”与“学”的重点。其二,理性表述是“申论”写作外化的成果。提出问题,条分缕析,给出方案,三位一体,具有严密的逻辑向度,既要把握“申论”客观性命题背后的要求与意图,又要多方面的知识储备和能力训练,是“教”与“学”的难点。“申论”这种要求贴近社会、理性思考、注重实效、条理清晰的高难度写作特点,不仅为传统写作教学开出了一片新天地,而且对培养政府高级管理人才意义重大。     

论道德目的论与道德工具论

道德目的论与道德工具论是两种关于道德性质、功能、作用等的伦理学说和道德价值理论。道德目的论以道德为目的 ,认为道德本身即具有内在价值和目的善 ,道德工具论以道德为某种更高目的的手段 ,认为道德只具有外在价值和手段善。二者各有所长亦各有所短 ,但都未能科学地解决人与道德的关系问题 ,犯了割裂目的与手段的错误。新道德应当超越道德目的论与道德工具论的对立 ,实现道德目的与道德手段的辩证统一。     

网络负面问题及伦理思考

网络文明的到来给人类的政治、经济、文化教育、社会生活方式等带来了深刻的变化,同时也带来了诸如信息欺诈、黄色泛滥、信息安全受损、网民人格异化等网络负面问题.产生网络负面问题的伦理根源是网络自身的特点弱化了传统伦理的约束力;网络空间的道德冲突使网民陷入道德相对主义之中;网络法律和道德建设的滞后使网络负面问题有可乘之机;网民自我宣泄和自我表现的心理要求促使了网络负面问题的形成.加强网络法制建设、整合传统伦理资源、扬弃西方网络伦理理论、强化网民的内在道德自觉,是消除网络负面行为的有效途径.     

心理学是关于主观实在的科学

传统哲学中的意识与物质,从广义上讲就是主观实在和客观实在。主观实在与客观实在是相互联系又相互独立的两种实在,其关系可以分为心物关系和心脑关系两种。心物关系属于哲学问题,心脑关系则属于科学问题。而就两种实在本身而言,它们都不属于哲学研究的范围。客观实在属于自然科学和社会科学研究的内容,主观实在则属于心理学研究的对象。
