The racialized patterns of police violence: The critical importance of research as praxis

The tragic killing of George Floyd at the hands of the police resulted in hundreds of thousands of protestors marching in the streets demanding change. The call for change criticized the killing of Blacks by law enforcement and challenged White supremacy as an institution of social control and racial violence. A key component of the marches and protests was a message to the residents of the United States: “Black Lives Matter.” As society grapples with a reckoning, researchers studying police violence for the past 6 decades have been empirically and theoretically debating the reasons why use of force by law enforcement continues to have a higher proportion of Black and Brown victims compared to Whites. Although the research on fatal police killings was studied by only a small number of individuals prior to 2014, after the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri the research in different areas of the country increased rapidly as did the forms of analysis and research disciplines making their own contributions. The Washington Post and Guardian news agencies established that deaths at the hands of the police were occurring for at least 900 to 1100 individual deaths per year for which firearms resulted in the greatest cause of death. As US government agencies failed to produce a national data source on police involved killings, the media took a leading role in providing greater national understanding. The authors examine what role academic researchers contribute to the discussion for solutions, particularly those from marginalized backgrounds. As protestors march, lawyers sue and defend, and politicians create new forms of legislation, researchers need to play a more important role initiating critical studies, making sense of the data, and providing a theoretical framework for which police violence can be understood. This article will provide an overview of the literature on racialized police violence, point out key patterns involving racial and ethnic disparities, and emphasize how researchers can play a more important role in advocating for change.     

‘Seeing through their Eyes’: Towards Understanding Risk and Protection Perspectives of Young Bedouin Children in the Unrecognised Villages of the Naqab

This article is based on a participatory, context-informed study that examined perception of ‘risk’ and ‘protection’ among 30 Bedouin children aged four to five. It was conducted in the Bedouin unrecognised villages — Southern Israel and utilised photography, drawings and verbal explanations. The analysis yielded seven themes representing children’s perceptions of risk and protection. It indicated that children facing extreme adversity were aware of numerous risk conditions, including a lack of infrastructure and the fear of losing their homes, thus adversely affecting their well-being. Children’s insights, and suggested modes of protection, as the study findings reveal, are crucial for promoting children’s welfare.     

怀疑意识、主体性及其他——论孙郁鲁迅研究中的哲学视角

哲学视角是孙郁的鲁迅研究中起步早、且一以贯之的一个方向,他独创性地将鲁迅与康德进行比较,认为在强调认识的有限性这一点上,二人不乏相似性。孙郁强调怀疑意识作为鲁迅思想的“内核”,并指出其在文化史上的意义。他以“主体性”思想为参照,对鲁迅思想和作品进行了深度解读,进而指出传统的“主奴文化”是形成“相互主体性”思想的障碍。概而言之,孙郁对于哲学视角的运用,并非纯粹的知识生产,具有鲜活的生命力和学术价值。      

Children and Violence: Nurturing Social-Emotional Development to Promote Mental Health

The absence of violence against children is a fundamental children's right and a major milestone of civilized society. Similarly, reports on incidences of violence by children and youth, including severe cases with devastating consequences, speak to the need that the trauma of exposure to violence in childhood needs to be addressed. While violence and its risk factors are generally understood, what is less clear are the essential protective factors, how we can identify those as early as possible, and how we can use them to prevent and address the trauma of violence exposure in children and youth. In this report, I review pathways of child and youth violence through the lens of social-emotional development as a central protective factor. Negative emotions of frustration and anger can underlie violence and aggression. Kind emotions, such as caring and our ability to connect with others emotionally, can serve as social-emotional protective factors. A brief review of the central social-emotional processes and their development is provided, including the human capacity to feel with others and express empathy, be emotionally aware and care about the effects of one's own actions on others, and be able to regulate the self and their emotions. Given the negative widespread and long-term impact of exposure to violence, I describe research-informed attempts to prevent violence exposure across development. Taking a humanistic, strength-based perspective, the focus is on social-emotional protective factors to address violence and nurture mental health in every child. I conclude with recommendations for practice and policy.     

儿童观点采择能力测量方法述评

儿童心理发展的一个重要方面就是社会性认知发展，而观点采择作为儿童社会性认知发展的核心因素，在儿童的社会化进程中起着重要作用。研究者们运用了不同的方法对儿童观点能力进行测量，却很少对这些测量方法进行综合研究。本文通过对儿童观点采择能力的测量方法进行梳理，意图探究这些方法的优势与不足，以期对未来的关于儿童观点采择能力的测量提出展望与建议。

论《国风》的表达角度及其转换

《国风》的表达角度,主要有“旁观者叙述”、“主人公独白”、“多重(前二者的混合)”等三种类型。同一首诗中,表达角度可以在这三种类型间转换。《国风》中的部分诗篇,历来有多种解释,如果从“表达角度的转换”这一侧面来理解,或许对解决某些一直争论不休的问题有所启发。     

明词视域下重观唐宋词的三种方式

近年来,明词成为词学领域新的学术增长点，在一定程度上得益于唐宋词研究者的持续助力。这从一个侧面反映了唐宋词研究在进入21世纪后面临的诸多困境：文献的完整、知识的密实、经典的稳固、范式的成熟等从多个维度制约了唐宋词研究的活力。事实上，明词作为唐宋金元词在时间上的接续者，是我们在通代视域下重审唐宋词的一个重要参照系。它所积累的知识资源与经验视角有助于我们转换思维方式，重新探究唐宋词研究中仅靠同时代文献无法解决的难题，重新评价唐宋词研究中的一些“平庸”问题，理解并反思现有唐宋词研究话语中的明清词学元素，在最大程度上激发唐宋词研究的活力。     

儿童生活世界：冲突与共生——成人与儿童视域融合之视角

儿童生活世界应是强调“儿童在场”和“以儿童为场”的世界。成人视域下的儿童生活世界充满了对儿童的历史性误解和期望性建构,这种对儿童生活世界的理解具有成人化、未来化、功利化、技术化、知识化等弊端。它与儿童视域下的儿童生活世界具有明显的冲突。为寻求成人视域与儿童视域中儿童生活世界的共生与融合,文章借助胡塞尔现象学中的“生活世界”概念,论述了儿童生活世界应是对儿童开放性成长、游戏性学习及感受性体验的充分彰显,儿童生活世界应以“儿童在场”为基础对儿童的“教育场”、“游戏场”、“生活场”进行深度融合。     

马克思主义视域下的“双创”实践

在转型与变革中,中国正在开启一个新的时代——“双创”时代。“双创”既是推动我国经济和社会发展的新动能,也是对马克思主义理论的继承、发展和创新。马克思主义与时俱进的理论品格和实践性的特征决定了应将“双创”纳入其视野中,并不断深化对“双创”的认识。通过对“双创”的概念和本质、“大众”群体在“双创”中的地位和作用、“供给侧”改革与“双创”的关系、“双创”在促进社会公平中的作用、文化建设对“双创”的引领等六个方面的理论思考,进而使中国马克思主义理论自觉地指导“双创”实践。在将“双创”纳入马克思主义视野中,还需要坚持历史与现实逻辑统一、具体问题具体分析、知行合一的方法论来指导“双创”。因此,将“双创”纳入当代中国马克思主义理论研究的新视野具有重要的理论价值和现实意义。
