海德格尔的“实用主义”和本原思想——对奥克伦特的海德格尔解读之实用主义视角的反思

对海德格尔的实用主义解读构成了美国海德格尔学者们的一个重要研究进路,但是实用主义视角下的海德格尔在欧陆学者看来是对海德格尔的曲解,因为这一视角抹去了海德格尔现象学的先验维度或者说本原思想。本文以奥克伦特对海德格尔时间性概念的实用主义解读为例,阐明海德格尔时间性概念的本原意义如何在实用主义视角下被消解,并指出海德格尔的本原思想在这一视角中“隐身”的根源。     

再论知识产权的特点

我国立法将知识产权确定为一种特殊的民事权利,不过,法学界仍然存在不同意见,通常围绕知识产权的无形性、双重性、专有性、时间性、地域性和授予性发表各自观点。本文通过分析认为,双重性、专有性、时间性方为知识产权独有的特点,包括知识产权在内的民事权利或全部或部分地具有无形性、地域性和授予性特点。结论是知识产权是一种特殊的民事权利。     

Self-interest and the theory of action

The concept of self-interest remains underdeveloped in sociology although central to economics. Recent methodological and social trends render sociological indifference to the concept untenable. The term has enjoyed historical predominance in the West since the sixteenth century. While it is seen in modern economics as a singular motivating force, Adam Smith regarded self-interest in economic action as necessarily moderated by sympathy. In addition to its problematic economic conceptualization self-interest has an experiential basis in unequal power relations. An alternative to the concept of self-interest is presented by Amartya Sen in his account of commitment; its inconsistencies, however, render Sen's statement unsatisfactory. Differences between present and future interests indicate that the distinction between self-interested and other-interested action is not sustainable.     

The translocal villagers. Mining,mobility and stratification in post-apartheid South Africa

Internal labour migration from rural areas to urban centres has been and remains one of the dominant patterns of migration in South Africa. Based on data from ethnographic field research, this paper explores the mobility patterns and translocal relations of miners in the Northern Cape province of South Africa. By considering the tension between mobility and locality in a historical and political perspective, the concept of translocality helps to explain why miners try to expand their action space and, at the same time, why they are embedded in certain places. Thus, a translocal perspective enhances the interpretation of the spatio-temporal transformations in South Africa’s mining communities and beyond, as it sheds light on the agency of mine workers, superseding merely structuralist explanations.     

在内在性与超验性之间--梅洛-庞蒂的肉身时间观

梅洛 -庞蒂认为时间是肉身主体在世存在的一种生存维度 ,它呈现为一种知觉场 ,它由处于核心的 (广义的 )现在和处于边缘的 (广义的 )过去与将来构成。现在借助于一种时间的过渡综合 ,而成为一种具有厚度的时间层 ,过去与将来 (或者在特殊意义上的出生和死亡 )则是围绕着现在的一种视域或氛围。对主体来说 ,它们都既是内在的 ,又是超验的。这种时间场的结构使主体性、主体的认识、主体的自由及主体间性成为可能。     

A Fragmentary Archive: Migratory Feelings in Early Anglo-Saxon Women’s Letters

The letters by Anglo-Saxon women in the Boniface correspondence are connected by cultural practices and emotions centered on the conversion mission that functioned to maintain connections between the Anglo-Saxon diaspora. A striking recurring focus of these letters is on loss and isolation, which connects them to the Old English elegies. Many of the letters describe the writers’ traumatic experiences that result from the death or absence of kin. These are women who endured the trauma of being left behind when others migrated overseas or who, in traveling away from their homeland, found themselves isolated in an alien environment, displaced in time as well as space. This article offers an analysis of the letters, focusing on the queer temporalities they explore, the queer emotions they evoke, and the queer kinships that they forge. It argues that the women’s letters represent fragments of an early queer archive of migratory feelings.     

Cultural studies in the present tense

Cultural studies professed ‘radical contextualism’ imbues the project with a particular orientation toward ‘the present,’ a consideration of ‘the current moment’ as a configuration of forces shaping possibilities for politically engaged practice and affording concrete potentials for telling better stories. This essay elaborates these claims by way of tribute to Lawrence Grossberg. It is neither retrospective nor prospective. Instead – and in a manner more befitting a figure who continues to champion the political-intellectual practice of cultural studies here and now, in the present – this essay reflects on the author’s experiences learning with and from Grossberg in order to explore the the temporality of the cultural studies project.     

网络安全法律的符号学阐释

基于自建语料库,研究发现信息（数据）是美国、中国和欧盟网络安全法律的核心规制对象。网络安全法律及其中的法律术语具有符号学时空性特点。一方面,美国、中国和欧盟在网络安全法律内容及其法律术语阐释方面存在空间性的差异,即在不同的司法管辖区,对网络安全法律以及同一法律术语存在不同的解释项;另一方面,法律术语作为语言符号具有时间性,规范现实空间的传统法律术语已不适应网络时代社会的发展,亟须对其进行重构以适用于网络空间。此外,社会发展、法的发展和各国互联网技术发展水平的不平衡性决定了网络安全法律移植的必要性,而在移植过程中,应充分考虑网络安全法律及其术语的空间性、本国国情以及国外法与本国法之间的兼容性。     

Standby Mothering: Temporalities,Affects, and the Politics of Mobile Intergenerational Care

ABSTRACT

In this paper, I showcase how left-behind mothers in the Philippines use digital communication technologies in delivering care to their overseas adult children in Melbourne, Australia. As part of a broader research project on transnational family life, the findings were drawn upon in-depth interviews, visual methods, a simple participant observation, and field notes taking and analysis. The study deployed a mediated mobilities lens, paying close attention to the different forces that shape the provision of intergenerational care through mobile device use. Building upon a critical analysis of the digitalization of intergenerational relationships in a transnational context, I coin the term ‘standby mothering.’ This conception encapsulates the femininized, ubiquitous, networked, and ambivalent intergenerational care practices that are experienced and negotiated by distant mothers. On the one hand, mobile device use enables left-behind mothers to deliver emotional and practical caregiving. On the other hand, everyday temporal conditions and technological barriers impede the provision of intergenerational care. Communicative constraints are constantly managed through various tactics, ensuring the sustenance of transnational relationships. By interrogating the contradictory outcomes of transnational caregiving, I underscore the politics of mediated mobilities in a digital society. Here, the mobilization of gendered, networked, and differential care practices is influenced by uneven structural and even socio-technological dimensions. Ultimately, this paper elucidates a critical stance on re-examining the provision of informal, gendered, and networked care practices.     

Re-approaching interview data through qualitative secondary analysis: interviews with internet gamblers

ABSTRACT

This paper addresses two interrelated questions concerning what interview data are and how researchers might use them. The first considers the value of a shift from a predominant or exclusive focus upon how data are constructed and produced at interview, and towards how such data might be apprehended through different forms of engagement. The second question relates to how and what qualitative secondary analysis (QSA) might be used to tell about the social world. In exploring this, we advance a critique of the divide between primary and secondary analysis, recasting the debate in terms of different degrees and qualities of ‘proximity’ and ‘distance’ from the formative contexts of data generation, and the distinctive analytical affordances that relate to these. Using QSA of interview data from a study of problem internet gambling as an empirical crucible, we consider the kinds of participation that interviewees develop through reciprocal engagement with interviewers. We illustrate how participants reflexively negotiate the affordances and limits to the narratives through which they frame and recount their experiences. Finally, we show how interview data can be used both to speak of the temporal, relational, spatial, epistemic contexts of their production, and also to contexts and questions beyond these.
