中国加入RCEP与经济体制机制改革深化

为研究《区域全面经济伙伴关系协定》(RCEP)的签署与中国经济体制机制改革的关系问题,对RCEP的内容和意义进行分析,探究RCEP推动中国开放-改革的新发展征程。研究认为,RCEP是一份全面、现代、高质量、互惠的自贸协定,其内容条款能够让成员国在参与全球最大贸易与投资自由化的区域经济运行中获得经济贸易利益,提升东南亚区域经济一体化水平; 通过签署RCEP,中国将在完善政策立法、产业结构调整、国有企业制度改革等方面,推动公平竞争的体制机制逐步完善; 在市场准入、资源配置、知识产权保护、劳动力和要素市场规范、市场经济法治建设、自由贸易试验区和自由贸易港发展等方面,进一步发挥社会主义市场经济体制优势,在形成以国内经济大循环为主体的基础上,积极参与区域和全球经济合作,利用更高水平对外开放,深化国内经济体制机制改革,实现外部循环与内部循环相互促进的新发展格局。     

全球服务贸易发展与中国面临的机遇和挑战

随着全球服务贸易总额的高速增长,全球服务贸易格局出现不均衡发展特征。对当前全球服务贸易发展趋势进行梳理,分析当前中国服务贸易发展面临的机遇与挑战,提出中国在“十四五”期间推进国际贸易发展的路径。研究认为,中国在服务贸易方面存在逆差,且逆差在不断扩大; 就具体服务行业而言,中国在诸如建筑、运输等传统服务贸易方面发展形势较好,但在旅游、留学方面存在较大逆差,原因在于中国总体经济发展较好使得国民拥有更多收入购买境外服务,并且中国部分服务基础设施国际化尚有不足。研究还认为,随着数字贸易兴起并在服务贸易中扮演愈加重要的地位,为中国服务贸易发展带来新机遇,中国需要围绕扩总量、调结构、找亮点、树特色、减逆差5个方面发展服务贸易,在减少旅行服务贸易逆差的同时,重点发展数字贸易,积极参与国际合作并主动争取服务贸易相应规则制定的话语权。     

Equality and Illusion: Gender and Tenure in Art History Careers

Using a national survey of 508 art history Ph.D.s including data on graduate school performance and careers 10 – 15 years post‐Ph.D., this study investigates gender, family, and academic tenure in art history, the humanities field with the highest proportion of women. Alternative hypotheses derived from three perspectives—termed here clockwork, two‐body, and synergy—are evaluated with multivariate logistic regression. Analysis finds that marriage increases men’s tenure odds and decreases women’s, but that some types of marriages do not decrease women’s odds, and some types dramatically increase men’s. This study calls attention to male advantage in female‐dominated academic disciplines and demonstrates the potential to better understand the interactions of gender, marriage, and careers by conceptualizing different types of marriages.

Think really different: Continuity and specialization in the English dual form adverbs

This paper analyses variation between ‐ly and ‐ø in English dual form adverbs by examining conversational data from York, U.K. Using multivariate analysis and the comparative method we assess the constraint ranking, significance and relative importance of external factors (age, sex, education level) and internal factors (lexical identity, function and meaning). The results show that ‐ly is dominant and has increased dramatically in apparent time. However, cross‐tabulations with individual lexical items reveal that this correlation with speaker age is restricted to a single item–really. In conjunction with evidence from the history of English, we suggest that this does not reflect ongoing developments in English adverb formation, but is the result of continuous renewal in the encoding of ‘intensity’. In contrast, separate analysis of the other adverbs shows that variation between ‐ly and zero is retained in part as a socio‐symbolic resource, in particular for marking less educated male speech. Underlying this social meaning however, is a linguistic constraint which operates across all speakers. The zero adverb encodes concrete, objective meaning–a tendency which can be traced back 650 years or more. This provides yet another example of the interface between social and historical developments in language variation and change.     

A Strengths Perspective in Working with an Adolescent with Dual Diagnosis

Dual diagnosis has gradually become a problem among adolescents in Hong Kong. In working with persons with dual diagnosis, professionals are accustomed to use a disease model in diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation. By means of a case illustration, the writer tries to contrast a disease orientation and a strengths perspective in working with persons with dual diagnosis. The disease orientation stresses: addiction and mental illness; intoxication and dependence; symptoms and diagnosis; detoxification and treatment; confusion and control as well as resistance and labeling. The strengths perspective focuses on: decoding frustration and emptiness from addiction; searching for strengths to satisfy normal needs; establishing social support and encouraging participation in a healthy environment; re-anchoring self-confidence and capability development as well as maintaining empathetic trust. In this case, with the strengths perspective, the writer successfully helped an adolescent to re-build his self-confidence and re-establish a healthy social support system to live a normal life.
