Oscar Pistorius and the melancholy of intersectionality

The alleged shooting by Paralympian and Olympian athlete Oscar Pistorius of his girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp has led to strong reactions worldwide. Scholars in the field of disability studies have expressed shock and disappointment in response both to the death itself and to its implications for the representation of disability. In South Africa in the wake of the death of Ms Steenkamp, much has been made both by critics of Pistorius and by his defenders about his status as a white South African man, but little has been said about disability issues. This silence in South Africa about disability as a possible identity factor in this case draws attention to the extent to which disability questions remain profoundly raced and gendered, and influenced by the colonial and apartheid past. The tragic alleged shooting by Oscar Pistorius draws attention back to how important intersectionality is to understanding disability in South Africa and other unequal societies.     

同一与差异——论爱留根纳的存在论思想对希腊哲学的继承和改造

爱留根纳在<论自然的区分>中阐释了其存在论思想,这一思想通过对希腊哲学关键词"自然"与"辩证法"的梳理与改造,成功将希腊哲学纳入神学体系,并对后来的经院哲学乃至近代以来的德国哲学产生了或明或暗的影响,而这一影响所因循的线索乃是神-哲学对"同一与差异"问题的持久追问.通过对"自然的区分"的讨论,爱留根纳深入地思考了辩证法对于上帝之思的意义:上帝自身隐匿为差异性.这种差异性外在呈现为绝对同一性,但是对其的确认必须通过对差异性的沉思才能得以达成.

Kazakhstan: constructing identity in a post-Soviet society

One of the problems with the now independent countries of Central Asia is that they have little history of independent statehood and even less experience of any ideological context that legitimizes a specific set of political arrangements, other than the discredited Marxist model of the Soviet system. Neither habit nor attachment to a coherent set of political ideals is very helpful as the basis for individual identification with or support of the State. Perhaps as a consequence, political operatives in Central Asian countries have opted to emphasize the centrality of ethnicity to legitimize their current political arrangements. But in Kazakhstan this presents a potential problem – the country is ethnically very diverse, has a large Russian/Slavic population and the ‘core nation’ of ethnic Kazakhs comprises a bare majority of Kazakh citizens. We utilize survey research to test the influence such factors as ethnicity, religion and other nexus of identity have on feelings of attachment to the state. Our findings indicate that identifying as ‘Kazakh’ indeed has a positive effect on identification with the state, as do identifying as Sunni Muslim and ‘Asian’. However, institutional trust and economic well-being are also positive influences on affective regard for the state, allowing an opening for broadening and deepening the basis for state legitimacy.     

政治身份认同的哲学探讨——对魏玛共和国和波恩共和国前后相关思想的考察

德国思想界在魏玛共和国和波恩共和国前后这段特殊时期内,完成了从德国近世以来形成的民族国家认同到超越这种民族国家认同的狭隘从而走向一个后民族国家的开放性的政治身份认同——即立宪爱国主义——的艰苦转型。诸多思想家就政治身份认同问题展开了讨论,并给出了各自的解决方式,从而揭示了这个问题的实质,即以一种基于议会民主制的公民理性交往的模式来扬弃传统的政治身份认同模式。

Sexual Identity Formation of Women Who Love Women: A Contextual View Point

Nonheterosexuals experience oppression and discrimination that affect personal development on all levels. An increased awareness of sexual identity development could create more inclusive sexual identity models, better understanding for counselor educators, and better training for counselors on issues of sexual identity. The purpose of this study was to identify the life experiences that influence sexual identity in women who love women. This study required that participants attach meaning to sexual identity formation. From the data collected, four themes emerged: I was just different, information seeking, view of self as a woman within the context of culture, and contextual relationships. Findings of this study did not support a stage model of sexual identity development. Instead, this study supported the view that sexual identity is fluid and strongly related to relationships with peer groups.     

Virtual journey coupled with face‐to‐face exchange: enhancing the cultural sensitivity and competence of graduate students

This study attempted to enhance cultural sensitivity for graduate students at an American and a South African university, using a six‐week online List Serv, email buddy exchange, and two‐week face‐to‐face experience. After the course was over, results of the intercultural developmental inventory, using t‐tests for related samples, showed that there was a significant difference (alpha equals .04) in the universalism and cognitive frame shifting clusters as well as the overall developmental cultural level of sensitivity. Positive trends were noted in the areas of cultural self‐identity enhancement, and a decrease in inflation in the area of perceived intercultural sensitivity was noted.     

在什么意义上黑格尔辩证法是马克思哲学变革的思想源头?——从"卢卡奇-科耶夫解读"看

对马克思来说,黑格尔的重要性在于:他打破近代哲学主客分立的内在性论域,提出在历史过程中重建主体与客体的同一性,由此提供了现代性自我理解的一种重要哲学形式,为马克思探索新哲学道路准备了思想前提。但黑格尔把整个问题变成抽象的思辨问题,坚持在思想中解决该问题。马克思则立足于唯物史观,把由黑格尔开发的现代性自我理解问题变成一个政治问题,即通过革命的实践活动去改变世界和历史。卢卡奇和科耶夫对黑格尔哲学的解读,对理解马克思和黑格尔之间这种传承与批判的内在逻辑具有重要启示作用。
