Left divergence,right convergence: anarchists,Marxists, and nationalist polarization in the Ukrainian conflict, 2013–2014

ABSTRACT

The article traces nationalist polarization and divergence within the Ukrainian new left in response to the Maidan and Anti-Maidan protests in 2013–2014, and the military conflict in Eastern Ukraine. The ideological left-wing groups in the protests were too weak to push forward any independent progressive agenda. Instead of moving the respective campaigns to the left, they were increasingly converging with the right themselves and degraded into marginal supporters of either pro-Ukrainian or pro-Russian camps in the conflict. The liberal and libertarian left supported the Maidan movement on the basis of abstract self-organization, liberal values and anti-authoritarianism. In contrast, the Marxist-Leninists attempted to seize political opportunities from supporting more plebeian and decentralized Anti-Maidan protests and reacting to the far-right threat after the Maidan victory. They deluded themselves that Russian nationalists were not as reactionary as their Ukrainian counterparts and that the world-system crisis allowed them to exploit Russian anti-American politics for progressive purposes.     

当代西方权力理论主要论争述评

权力是一个在本质上可争议的概念。在当代西方学术界,自米尔斯出版《权力精英》一书以来,学者们就权力问题展开了非常激烈并且旷日持久的争论,产生了精英权力观、多元权力观、整体权力观、激进权力观。西方学术界对权力理论的认识在争论中不断丰富和完善,虽然每种权力观各有利弊,但是它们各有不同的适用范围;更重要的是,权力与利益密切相关,利益如果不确定,权力观就不可能确定。     

Sexuality Information Seeking and Sexual Function Among Women Attending In-Home Sex Toy Parties

ABSTRACT. Outside traditional risk-oriented public health campaigns, few sexuality education opportunities exist for adult women, particularly those in partnered relationships, that address issues related to sexual desire and pleasure. Data were collected from 677 women attending in-home sex toy parties to assess whether they sought sexuality-related information at a recent party they attended. Participants reported asking 765 questions at parties. The questions were analyzed for their content and for relations with sexual function scores. Question topics were varied, related to various domains of sexual function, and provided insight into the contributions that these parties may make to women's sexual health.

Party to inequality: Right party power and income inequality in affluent Western democracies

Much social science suggests that income inequality is a product of economic and demographic factors and recent work highlights the influence of Leftist politics in affluent Western democracies. But, prior research has neglected rightist politics. We examine the impact of cumulative right party power on three measures of income inequality in an unbalanced panel of 16 affluent Western democracies from 1969 to 2000. We find that cumulative right party power significantly increases inequality with effects comparable to other established causes. Left party power has less influence than the right on the Gini coefficient and the 90/50 ratio but a larger influence on the 90/10 ratio. Union density is insignificant after controlling for right party power. Right party power partly channels through and partly combines with government expenditures to affect inequality. Temporal interactions show that right parties became more influential after 1989 while left parties became less effective. Supplementary analyses suggest that a component of right party power's effects occurs through labor market inequality prior to taxes and transfers. Sensitivity analyses reveal that the results are robust to a wide variety of alternative specifications and operationalizations and do not depend on the inclusion of the U.S. in the sample. Our results inform debates about the sources of inequality and related sociological theories regarding class, politics, the state and the economy.     

对当前贫富矛盾问题上激进观点的评析

贫富矛盾是当前社会一个无法回避、亟需解决的现实问题，解决这一问题也是构建社会主义和谐社会的重要内容，具有牵一发而动全身的作用。在对待贫富矛盾的问题上，持激进观点的人以底层群体代言人的身份出现，他们的观点有其合理性，但也存在很大的局限性，需要辩证地对待。立足于实践，运用马克思主义观点对贫富矛盾问题上的激进观点加以评析，有利于对问题的真正解决。     

上市公司对外担保法律制度研究

在我国对上市公司对外担保制度作进一步法律思考的前提是解决公司有无对外担保的权利能力。文章先 从比较的视角对这一问题进行了探讨,并得出肯定性结论。同时指出由于我国立法的粗疏,又使该规定引发了广泛 的法律争辩,进而成为公司法和担保法上的一个理论难题。笔者在厘清争辩问题的基础上提出了完善上市公司对 外担保法律制度的建议。

新民歌运动:激进现代性的文化表征

新民歌运动表征着中国现代性建构实践的激进化,在新诗发展史上具有标志性意义。它旨在建构优越于西方现代性的民族文化并真诚地借用"古典"和"民歌"的形式,结果却在规范与规训的双重作用下,于一体化认同建构过程中形成对世俗现代性的渴望与追求同审美现代性的极度缺失的强烈反差,从而走向对真正意义上的古典和民歌的自反性否定。对新民歌运动及与之相关的17年文学的研究存在反二元对立、重审现代性、回归历史等三种批评角度,批评的异响本身暗示着17年文学貌似单纯的现象背后的深刻复杂性。
