“Me and the Law is Not Friends”: How Former Prisoners Make Sense of Reentry

This article examines how former prisoners of color conceptualize their political, social, and economic futures and how these conceptualizations relate to the racialized social structural obstacles encountered upon reentry and decisions to re-engage criminal labor. I find that, presented with similar post-prison challenges, excarcerated men take several approaches when reentering society. I argue that the differences among their approaches lie in their varying interpretations of how they can act as individuals against and within their social structural limitations. Their decisions to rejoin or forfeit participation in criminal economies are thus shaped by experiences confronting the limitations of material conditions but also emerge from their critiques of racialized structures.

金融危机下的贸易保护主义——基于公共物品和“囚徒困境”理论视角

贸易保护主义是国际贸易发展的必然结果。随着全球的金融危机对实体经济影响的加剧,发达国家纷纷举起贸易保护主义大棒。从公共物品与囚徒困境这一理论视角出发,对金融危机下的贸易保护主义现象作出解释,并通过对国际贸易体制的公共物品性质分析,进一步提出贸易保护主义盛行情况下我国的对策。     

Parental Substance Use and Foster Care Reentry

Foster care involvement due to parental substance use is a common problem with many challenges associated with service delivery. Using administrative data from a Midwestern state between the years 2009 and 2015 (N = 17,420), this study examines characteristics of substance-abusing families at the time of entry into the foster care system and estimates the risk of reentry subsequent to reunification. Bivariate findings and survival analysis for reentry suggests substance-using parents are more likely to be involved in additional allegations associated with foster care involvement. These results highlight the need for improved services integration and coordinated delivery among service systems.     

The Missing Organizational Dimension of Prisoner Reentry: An Ethnography of the Road to Reentry at a Nonprofit Service Provider

Prisoner reentry has received great interest in political sociology, criminology, and beyond. Research documents the struggles of individuals trying to find their way back into society. Less attention has been given to the organizational aspects of reentry. This is unfortunate given the rapid growth of nonprofit reentry organizations in the United States, which introduces a new set of questions about the context and challenges to prisoner reentry. Drawing on an ethnography of Safe, a nonprofit reentry organization in the Northeast, I describe the organization's pivotal role in institutionalizing the pathway to prisoner reentry: a road to reentry, which takes former prisoners through a process that reconfigures their morality, identity, and social relationships. The road‐to‐reentry concept helps bring together scholars of the welfare state and criminology by highlighting how the challenges of prisoner reentry rely on how this process is organized. The way in which prison reentry is organized, in turn, affects former prisoners’ agency and shapes the relationship between these men and women and their respective families and communities.     

商业银行的囚徒困境———基于博弈论视角的利率市场化分析简

随着贷款利率解除管制,我国的利率市场化改革仅余存款利率上限管制,这意味着利率的完全市场化时代即将来临。从博弈论角度来看,商业银行在利率市场化之后将陷入囚徒困境,这将使以存贷款业务为主的商业银行竞争加剧。在此竞局中,商业银行采取何种竞争策略不仅与博弈对手有关,还与利率市场化之后的宏观经济环境有关。为了避免或减缓因商业银行间过度竞争而导致的金融不稳定,政策上需要把握利率完全市场化的时机,完善相关的制度建设。     

Women Reentering the Community: Understanding Addiction and Trauma-Related Characteristics of Recidivism

Women represent 26% of those arrested for serious crimes; many have posttraumatic stress and co-occurring substance use disorders, which may influence recidivism. This study examined 57 women residing in a community re-entry program after exiting prison. Participants completed the Trauma Symptom Inventory and Substance Abuse Subtle Screening Inventory. A discriminant function analysis accounted for 34% of between-group variability and provided a profile of women who recidivated. Women who recidivated had greater alcohol dependence and lower rates of sexual dysfunction and sexual concerns. Practitioners should consider potential links between substance abuse, trauma, and sexual behavior in treatment settings.     

宋代牢城军初探

在“崇文抑武”的大背景下，宋代民众只是将从军当成最后的谋生手段。由于军人社会地位低下，宋军兵源不能得到及时、有效的补充，牢城军就是宋朝为弥补兵源不足而利用罪犯组建的军队，隶属于厢军。与其他番号厢军一样，牢城军除具有基本役作职能外，也具备一定的军事职能，是宋朝主体军事力量的有益补充。     

红楼春梦好模糊——贾府“四春”谫论

<红楼梦>中的贾府"四春"是"千红"、"万艳"的重要代表,各有其鲜明的形象意义贾元春如富贵囚者,贾迎春善得恶报,贾探春堪称末世英雄,贾惜春则被佛心冷结.曹雪芹通过"四春"形象,抒发的是"原应叹息"的悲情,说明在那一时代,不论你是贵是贱、是强是弱、是热是冷,都不会有理想的人生归宿.     

德波的景观社会批判

法国“情境论者”德波对二战后出现的“景观社会”进行了深刻的批判,他认为“景观社会”是继马克思所说的商品社会之后出现的一种新的社会控制形式,其主要特征是通过创造施催眠术的幻象与使人昏乱的娱乐形式所组成的世界来麻木大众。面对消费的大众日益沦为景观社会的幻象囚徒的困境,德波提倡充满活力、创造性和想象力的活动,从而消除由景观所诱发的冷漠、欺骗、被动与碎片化,恢复积极性的生存。     

考虑企业竞争的产品线延伸策略研究

越来越多的企业延伸其产品线以满足消费者不同需求,本文采用博弈论探讨了企业产品线延伸策略的有效性。在竞争情形下,两个企业均有机会进行产品线延伸抢夺市场份额。通过消费者效用理论构建了两个企业的需求函数,并得到了均衡解及其利润。研究发现：Nash博弈下,当延伸成本较高时,竞争性企业会放弃产品线延伸;当延伸成本适中时,进行产品线延伸的企业将获得更多利润,而不进行产品线延伸的竞争对手将遭受损失;当延伸成本较低时,虽然企业最优的选择是延伸其产品线,但是两个企业会陷入“囚徒困境”——产品线延伸非但没有获得更多利润反而使利润减少了;另外,当两企业进行Stackelberg博弈时,本文核心结论依然成立,但两企业陷入囚徒困境的可能性增大。
