从丁玲《在医院中时》看知识分子革命者的成长

知识分子革命者的成长,是一个漫长而艰巨的历程。丁玲《在医院中时》是一部真实展现知识分子成长的代表作。抗战时期,大批知识分子奔赴革命圣地延安,壮大了革命力量。然而由于知识分子自身的弱点,对他们的改造也很艰巨。文中陆萍的成长具有普遍的代表性,透过她经历的过程,可以看到大批知识分子革命者成长的轨迹。     

晚清士人生态与文学活动

晚清文学的繁荣是晚清士人在科举之途堵塞之后的一种创造。在晚清士人走向文学活动的路途中充满了种种社会的、心理的复杂动因。东南沿海口岸城市开放的文化氛围、发达的工商业经济培育了最早的文学读者,也为穷途末路的晚清士人提供了以文学活动谋生的职业机会。因此,考察晚清士人生态的变化,对于把握晚清文学活动的主流、了解文学生产的规律有直接的意义。

国有企业青年人才流失现象浅议

青年人才流失严重,已成为国企改革中的一个突出问题。对国企弊端及其低收入的失望,对国企僵化人事制度的压抑,对国企改革引发的个人利益阵痛的矛盾,对国企诸多不公平现象的抵触,心态的流失导致了行为上的流失。国企必须加强思想教育、注重培训,提高效益,以实现“感情留人”、“事业留人”、“待遇留人”的目的。一言以蔽之:留人要留心。     

从美国知识女性的崛起看妇女要求解放的规律

19世纪末20世纪初美国的知识女性为妇女解放、社会改革做出了显著贡献,崛起为人格独立并富于社会责任感的“新女性”,她们不仅敢于挑战传统的两性地位观念、追求健康开放的生活新方式,而且走向了职业化、组织化和社会化,并为争取参政权等各项妇女权利而奋斗。实际上,19世纪末20世纪初美国知识女性的崛起与种种努力体现了妇女在要求解放的过程中其自身角色的家庭型—社会型—政治型的共性转变规律。     

‘Wasting precious time’: young men with Duchenne muscular dystrophy negotiate the transition to adulthood

Supporting young disabled people at the transition to adulthood has long proved to be a challenging task. Young men with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) have until recently died before they reached adulthood. Now they are living longer but with a corresponding lack of forethought about how they should be supported in adulthood. This study investigated in three regions of England what was happening for young men with DMD and how they were being supported. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 37 young men (aged 15+) with DMD and 58 other family members. The findings suggested that too many young men had finished education and training and were at home during the day without meaningful activity. In part, the complicated nature of shifting expectations across the life-course had made planning for an adult life with DMD very challenging. This could be exacerbated by problematic assumptions and stubborn barriers.     

An examination of the views of young people in the Romanian residential care system regarding their relationship with biological family members and the option of reintegration

This paper reports findings from research conducted in six Romanian residential care homes. The aim of the paper is to examine the views held by young people, currently living in residential care, about the importance of their biological families and the option and challenge of reintegration. The data reflect the ideas and perspectives of 44 young people captured through a narrative interview approach using social mapping activities. The results indicate that most children and young people know at least one birth parent and maintain contact on their own initiative; most do not place a high level of importance on such relationships which are generally characterised by lack of confidence, low security and a presumed limited capacity on the part of the biological family to meet their needs. Family reintegration is considered to be a viable option for a small number of young people; others do not see it as realistic because of the impact of long-term separation and the likelihood of experiencing poorer living conditions.     

Vulnerable young people and substance misuse: expanding on the risk and protection‐focused approach using social psychology

This paper critically reviews recent research exploring risk and protective factors for the development of problematic substance use in populations of young people. Specific populations of young people who are most vulnerable to developing problematic patterns of use are identified, and alterations to methods of data collection which would improve the ability of local authorities to monitor these populations and more efficiently target them for early preventative interventions are highlighted. It is argued that social‐psychological research techniques and approaches should be used to complement a risk and protection‐focused approach in order to improve the design and evaluation of interventions, and provide decision‐aids for practitioners when assessing the needs of vulnerable young people. Examples are provided to demonstrate the utility of social psychology in this regard, and the paper concludes with specific recommendations for future research and services.
