唐朝军政统治的终局与五代十国割据的开端

淮南节度使高骈在史书中一直被认为"惑于神仙之说",通过对崔致远<桂苑笔耕集>考察,却发现这是淮南节度使实行的一种改革.它的目的是克服唐王朝军政、财政全面崩溃的困境,使其走向完全独立化."妖人吕用之之党"其实具有下层商人的特性,而且跟扬州周边有盐铁专卖的关系,因此可以说是改革的旗手.促使他们灭亡的原因就是当时各州府互相斗争的状态的持续,这到五代十国时也成了诸势力的政治课题.     

中国古代建筑与传统文化

建筑除了具有实用价值以外,还反映了一定历史时期的文化。本文主要从"礼制"和"风水"两个方面简述了中国传统文化对古代建筑的影响。     

略论传统伦理道德的发展规律和历史命运-传统伦理道德思想论纲之一

中华民族在血缘宗亲的群体关系中,高度地发挥着人的本性,随着孝养的制度化,传统伦理道德思想从其原生期、形成期逐渐走入成熟期,发展出以三纲五常为主体的政治性伦理思想和以仁义说为核心的品格性伦理思想.前者借专制集权主义而大行其道,渐趋极端,压制着后者,扭曲着人性.后者顽强地抗争,熔铸着民族的精神,培养着"民族的脊梁".二者既对立又统一,既冲突又融合,共同构成传统伦理道德思想.这个矛盾的统一体循其矛盾规律而发展,从不中断,绝不消亡,在经过漫长的成熟期的五个阶段后,必然迈入自己的高级期.     

Ethics Creep: Governing Social Science Research in the Name of Ethics

This article presents an analysis of the Canadian ethics review process by a member of a Research Ethics Board. The author suggests that the new formal system for regulating the ethical conduct of scholarly research is experiencing a form of ethics creep. This is characterized by a dual process whereby the regulatory system is expanding outward to incorporate a host of new activities and institutions, while at the same time intensifying the regulation of activities deemed to fall within its ambit. These tendencies are demonstrated through an analysis of: 1) the scope of research ethics protocols, 2) the concept of harm employed by these boards, 3) the use of informed consent provisions, and 4) the presumption that research participants will remain anonymous. To accentuate the nature of this ethics creep, comparisons are made between the ways in which identical knowledge generation activities are governed within journalism and the academy. The conclusion suggests that one effect of the increasingly formalized research ethics structure is to rupture the relationship between following the rules and acting ethically. Some of the reasons for this creep are highlighted along with the risks that it poses for scholarship.     

盈余管理泛滥的制度原因与治理——基于中美资本市场的比较分析

盈余管理是导致会计信息失真,困扰资本市场有效运行的一大痼疾.其泛滥根本原因在于制度安排缺乏对滥用准则行为的有力制约,甚至产生诱导效果,而不是因为准则中存在可被利用的空间,与美国相比,我国的问题是尚未建立盈余管理的约束机制.治理盈余管理不能依靠修订会计准则,而应改进现有制度安排以强化阻碍力量,尤其政策上应变被动防范为主动查处,对滥用准则行为说"不".     

理性重构和“法治“与“德治“的有机结合

西方理性是关注超验世界的普遍理性,它为人们提供一个严密逻辑的世界观.逻辑使法律的外在手段成为社会治理的主要形式.但建立在普遍逻辑基础上的道德是绝对的道德,人们无法用它去规范社会行动.中国传统理性是关注经验世界的经验价值理性,不关注普遍逻辑 .没有建立起逻辑,法律的外在手段难以实现.它是多样的、相对的,建立起了能较好地用于规范社会行动的经验的多层次的道德.要实现"法治"和"德治"的结合,必须重构理性.重构的理性必须是多样性和普遍性、价值和真理相统一的理性.在马克思的实践观基础上能建构起这一理性即"实践的理性"."实践的理性"具有双重品格,能实现"法治"和"德治"的结合.     

刑事诉讼法违法证据排除法则的分析

通过对违法证据排除法则的概念、英美法律中该法则发展状况的分析和论证,提出我国刑事诉讼法也应适用该规则,并应采用既注重内容、又兼顾形式的“部分排除”原则。     

一个围绕认识基本规律展开的认识规律与认识方法论体系的构想

主体与客体之间的认识与实践双重关系的矛盾是认识过程的基本矛盾,这一矛盾运动的规律是认识发展的基本规律.马克思主义的认识规律和认识方法论是一个理论体系.这一体系的建构必须遵循实事求是的原则;其内容应围绕着认识的基本规律展开,将认识规律和认识方法的阐述统一起来;其结构形式应将"规律"和"范畴"统一起来.本文提出了一个围绕认识基本规律展开的认识规律与认识方法论体系的初步构想.     

Comparing the relative efficiency of three sequential procedures

We consider the sequential procedures developed by Robbins and Siegmund (1974), Louis (1975) and Zoubeidi (1992) for comparing the means of two treatments. We let the procedures have equal power functions and compare their Bayes and minimax risks using the invariance property of their power functions. For each of several formulations of the problem we determine the most relatively efficient procedure and compute its expected total sample size.     

An individual-based model for competingDrosophila populations

An individual-based model forDrosophila is formulated, based on competition amongst larvae consuming the same batch of food. The predictions of the model are supported by data for single speciesDrosophila populations reared in the laboratory. The model is used to build a simple discrete model for the dynamics ofDrosophila populations that are kept over a number of generations. The dynamics of a single species is shown to give either a stable equilibrium or fluctuations which can be periodic or chaotic. When the dynamics of a species in the absence of the other is periodic or chaotic, we found coexistence or two alternative states, on neither of which the species can coexist.
