二十一世纪东西文化趋近与中国文化创新

本文认为21世纪人类文化的大格局,仍将是多元并茂、互补共进,人类文化、东西文化发展的总趋势,必然是彼此逐渐走向趋近和融合,在趋近与融合中化解矛盾、避免冲突、互补互动、创新发展。汤因比的“世界统一论”、亨廷顿的“文明冲突论”,既不符合文化发展自身的逻辑,也是不现实的。中国文化在中西文化趋近与融合的大背景中,必然实现进一步的融合与创新,对解决人类面临的困境做出自己的贡献。     

社会发展与价值选择

社会发展既存在着客观必然性,又渗透着人们自觉的价值选择。从一定意义上说,社会发展过程就是人们对发展的一种价值选择和价值评价过程。发展研究实质上是人们对社会发展的合理性和合目的性的探寻,是对意义世界的建构和对理想世界的追求。

Multiobjective Decision-Tree Analysis1

Single-objective-based decision-tree analysis has been extensively and successfully used in numerous decision-making problems since its formal introduction by Howard Raiffa more than two decades ago. This paper extends the traditional methodology to incorporate multiple noncommensurate objective functions and use of the conditional expected value of the risk of extreme and catastrophic events. The proposed methodology considers the cases where (a) a finite number of actions are available at each decision node and (b) discrete or continuous states of nature can be presented at each chance node. The proposed extension of decision-tree analysis is introduced through an example problem that leads the reader step-by-step into the methodological procedure. The example problem builds on flood warning systems. Two noncommensurate objectives—the loss of lives and the loss of property (including monetary costs of the flood warning system)–are incorporated into the decision tree. In addition, two risk measures—the common expected value and the conditional expected value of extreme and catastrophic events—are quantified and are also incorporated into the decision-making process. Theoretical difficulties associated with the stage-wise calculation of conditional expected values are identified and certain simplifying assumptions are made for computational tractibility. In particular, it is revealed that decisions concerning experimentation have a very interesting impact on the noninferior solution set of options—a phenomenon that has no equivalence in the single-objective case.     

诗意的栖居——花瑶讪歌史学、文化价值初探

花瑶是聚居在湖南省隆回县境内一个不足七千人的古老族群,是瑶族中一个独特的分支,由于封闭的生活环境,古老的民俗文化得以保存至今。花瑶讪歌就是其中最有价值的遗产,2006年花瑶呜哇山歌被录入湖南省首批非物质文化遗产。文章从花瑶讪歌所散发的思想、艺术魅力中初步探索了花瑶讪歌的史学、文化价值,以期引起研究者的注意。     

法实现的若干问题刍议

法的运行目的是为了法的实现。法的实现应是过程与结果的统一。法实现的过程就是法的运行与操作的过程。法实现的动作与立法、执法、司法、法律监督、守法紧密相关。法实现的途径既要立足法自身状况因素，也要从经济基础、文化、社会等广阔背景审视。     

由价值体系的变更谈哲学概念的重新界定

哲学是有着二千六百多年历史的学科。但是，迄今为止没有一个统一公认的哲学概念。在和谐价值体系建构的当代，对哲学概念的界定应从时代价值体系变更的过程当中来寻找，认为哲学的概念应该是实践主体在追求与选择价值体系中的动态思维过程，是人类研究现时存在的根源及发展问题的动态性思维表现。     

“微观权力”结构调整：新《劳动法》对中国社会结构转型的价值

新《劳动法》的颁布实施，将通过对企业主和劳动者这种“微观权力”关系的调整，为实现社会结构的顺利转型搭建更为扁平化的“微观权力”架构。同时，由于权力结构的调整势必会引起各种利益相关者为保值或增值自身利益而加入这个利益博弈格局，从而使新《劳动法》在一定程度上偏离预期目标和效益。因此，通过对新《劳动法》可能的正、负价值的认知与解读，可以为人们趋利避害地利用它实质性地推动社会结构转型奠定思想上的基础。     

人力资源管理的文化价值观视角

激励理论一直被许多企业视为人力资源管理的致胜法宝,然而真正的实施效果并没有人们期望的那样好。这主要是因为,需求并不是人行为动机的全部。文化价值观从更深的层次、更广的角度影响着人的行为动机,因而深入研究员工的文化价值观对建立有效的人力资源管理模式是极为重要的。在国内企业界中,文化价值观的作用在人力资源管理中远未得到重视。从美日人力资源管理模式的演变中得到启示,为我国企业建立适合本国国情的人力资源管理模式提供建议。     

Iterated full partitions

Algebraic calculations that depend upon a full partition can be automated through the use of an operator P for the derivation of such a partition. Calculations that require the repeated use of P are automated by simply iterating the operator. The resulting output is general and contains sufficient structure to identify the result of a calculation for a variety of settings.
