论幸福视界下的中国传统生活方式

中国传统生活方式与传统文化的本质规定性紧密相连,是传统文化的载体或表现。这种生活方式是在传统文化的幸福思想、幸福理念的指导下,能够使人们较好地遵循幸福原则去追求和获得幸福,从而内在地具有幸福功能。无论是传统的劳动与交往生活方式、消费生活方式,还是闲暇生活方式,抑或是精神生活方式,都合乎并体现出幸福的和谐性、共享性、简单性、适度性、精神性等本质特征。因此,中国传统生活方式本质上就是一种幸福生活方式。我们应该用辩证的眼光,从中萃取一种有益于现代人身心健康发展的生活理念和精神元素,继承和发扬优良的传统生活方式。     

混成耕牧制在彝语地名中的反映

混成耕牧制是一种普遍流行于我国西南山区的传统生产方式。彝族、土家族、苗族、仡佬族,甚至部分汉族和布依族都曾实行过这一生产方式,有的至今尚在延续或变形延续。然而, 对混成耕牧制的研究目前尚不充分, 文献记载又残缺不全。因此,通过对彝语地名含义的破译和诠释, 归纳这些地名定型的命名意图, 透视这些地名的命名取向, 从而揭示混成耕牧制在资源利用上的若干特点。     

网络社会公众同情形成过程中的媒介作用机制研究

在网络社会的社会实践过程中,信息传递的充分和对称并没有避免公众同情与事实本身形成偏差的出现。由于信息技术改变了人们的生活方式,传播网络上的发声成为了节点化生活中的人们参与社会事务的主要手段。社会资本运动的核心转变为文化资本,公众同情作为传播过程中核心节点——话题序参量媒体参与社会资本活动的重要工具,在公共舆论事件的发展和演变过程中起着重要的作用。     

Back to Brit: retired British migrants returning from Spain

Since the seminal research of O'Reilly, Karen [2000. The British on the Costa del Sol. London: Routledge] and King, Russell, Anthony Warnes, Allan Williams [2000. Sunset Lives: British Retirement Migration to the Mediterranean. New York: Berg Publishers] about British citizens on the Costa del Sol there has been a surge in the publication of lifestyle migration papers, books and research. Nonetheless, there is a part of the lifestyle migration process that has been rarely explored: a return move to the country of origin following retirement migration. Research has indicated a broad increase in the number of older British returnees, yet there has been no substantive research on the topic. This paper therefore attempts to fill this gap by using Spanish registry data to examine the number of British retirees since 2009 who have returned to the UK. In addition, the results of an electronic survey to older British people in Spain are presented which suggest that considerable numbers of British citizens aged over 55 living in the Northern Costa Blanca are likely to return in the next few years. These data therefore indicate the relevance of return migration from Spain to the UK as a significant issue to the academic community as well as to British and Spanish policy-makers.

论近代中国城市文化娱乐生活方式之变迁

近代以来,西方文化娱乐生活方式传入中国城市,逐渐被市民认同、接受和仿行,并顺应中国文化加以改易和创新;传统文化娱乐生活方式抑或逐渐衰微、消亡,抑或增添了新内容而发生变异。近代中国城市文化娱乐生活方式由此日益走向西化、多样化和现代化的变迁过程,并呈现出中西杂糅、新旧并举,多元复杂,不平衡及城乡相互渗透交融等特点,鲜明地折射出近代社会变迁的历程和实践轨迹。     

生活方式的变迁与道德文化的调整

社会的转型使得传统社会人们生活方式的封闭、僵化和保守逐渐向现代社会的开放、变革型的生活方式过渡。这种过渡引起了人们道德文化变革的需求。然而道德文化理念在许多方面还停留在与一元社会相契合的水平,并没有从总体上应答现代社会转型所提出的新要求。因此,人们生活方式由传统到现代的变化,必然会在一定程度上促使道德文化的调整。     

日常生活方式：娱乐艺术及其文化道

在娱乐媒体十分发达的今天,好莱坞电影娱乐艺术何以就构成了异域大众的生活方式并最终成为他们文化价值取向系统中重要的选择内容?当人们说中国的电影不在中国人的生活方式里,好莱坞的电影在全世界人的生活方式里的时候,我们怎么去面对自身的困境并有效转化它者的经验?诸如此类的问题表明,我们首先必须跳出好莱坞娱乐艺术的叙事形式辨析抑或好莱坞称霸全球的意识形态动机和文化野心批判,在生活方式、娱乐艺术和文化道路的复杂缠绕中寻找一个更为广阔的阐释背景,依托这个背景,我们也许能够对好莱坞电影的娱乐力量形成一个比较清晰的文化整体视野,并从这个视野出发全面透析好莱坞娱乐艺术的方方面面。     

Coping with Vulnerabilities in Old Age and Retirement: Cross-border Mobility,Family Relations and Social Networks of German Retirees in Alanya

ABSTRACT

Reduced income upon retirement is a vulnerability threat, which increases dependency on public provisions, familial, and/or social (community) support. Many German retirees, in addition to lifestyle motivations, move to low-cost destinations in order to maintain an autonomous and independent life while minimizing the risks of financial worsening. In this article, I discuss the vulnerability patterns of German retirees in the Mediterranean coastal town of Alanya, Turkey, and the role of social networks, with a particular focus on intergenerational family relations. I argue that, despite increased life satisfaction, relocation to a new destination abroad results in new emerging threats. German retirees in Alanya experience difficulties in terms of a lack of intergenerational family support and the double jeopardy of being framed by the legal regulations of two nation states. Based on the findings of the empirical research conducted in Alanya in 2017, I will demonstrate new threats emerged after relocation and how retirees respond to those with new coping strategies.     

Veganism as a lifestyle movement

In the last few years, the popularity of veganism has surged. Current literature on the cultural practice, which situates it within a social movements framework, cannot adequately explain this meteoric rise. A better approach is to view veganism as an emerging lifestyle movement based on individual consumption rather than political protest. After situating veganism within the literature on animal rights, this review then explains why a lifestyle movement perspective yields a more compelling account of its growing mainstream appeal. Drawing on both cultural and organizational sociology, this review provides insights into the cultural origins of veganism, its evolving relationship to other food movements, and highlights the key role played by cultural entrepreneurs, the key changemakers who are bringing veganism from the margins to the mainstream.
