The effects of social and political openness on the welfare state in 18 OECD countries

Studies examining the relationship between globalisation and the welfare state tend to focus on the effects of economic dimensions of globalisation, the extent to which a country is part of the world market. Globalisation also has social and political dimensions and the effects of these on welfare states – in terms of social security transfers and generosity – are studied in this article. Data from the KOF Index of Globalisation , the OECD Historical Statistics and the Comparative Welfare Entitlements Dataset are used to analyse the effects of social and political openness on the welfare states of 18 countries of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development between 1970 and 2000. The analyses show that social security transfers and generosity have increased less in countries with the highest increase in social openness and that the welfare state is not affected by political openness.     

γ辐照Al~(3+):α-石英晶体的光吸收谱及其GOW心的色心电子能态

本文用水热法生长了Al~(3+):α-SiO_2石英晶体,测量了γ射线辐照赋色的晶体的吸收光谱。主要的可见吸收带位于2、61ev,2.07ev和2.30ev处。其中2、6ev和2、07ev吸收带是GOW心(即〔Al_(e+)〕°心)产生的色心吸收带。本文理论上计算了GOW心的电子能态。对应该心两个吸收带的理论值分别位于2、72ev和1.94ev与实验结果相符。     

流动注射─—化学发光法同时测定痕量Cr(Ⅵ)/Cr(Ⅲ)

提出一个反相流动注射-化学发光法同时测定Cr（Ⅵ）Gr(Ⅲ）的方法,基于皮素－H2O2－Cr（Ⅵ）－KOH化学发光反应直接测定Cr（Ⅵ）;Cr（Ⅲ）在PbO2柱氧化后测定．方法简单,快速,检测限为1．0×10－9Cr（Ⅵ）,线性范围为1．0×10－8~1．0×10－6g/mlCr（Ⅵ）,用于淮河水样分析,结果满意．     

试论唐朝在契丹族地区设立的府州

唐朝是契丹民族发展史上一个重要历史时期。由于唐朝的强大和民族政策的相对宽容,契丹与中原内地的经济文化交流十分频繁,有很多契丹人成为唐王朝的属民。为了加强对契丹人的管理,维护边疆民族地区的稳定,唐王朝对契丹人实行了设府置州、册封、赐姓以及和亲等一系列羁縻统治措施,进一步加速了契丹社会的发展,为契丹族的勃兴创造了条件。     

The Veils of Clio: Dimensions of a Behavioral Narratology

This paper outlines a behavior-analysis approach to the field of narratology, the study of the narrative or story, with emphasis on nonfiction stories and the processes by which such stories distort the world they describe. Stories are described in terms of (a) a behavior-analysis adaptation of Todorov''s (1977) analysis of the plots of stories in terms of states of equilibrium/disequilibrium and (b) Grant''s (2005) analysis of the structure of stories in terms of establishing operations and escape contingencies. These two sets of concepts are applied to understanding how and why stories lead to distortions of the events they report.     

当代形式语义研究新进展——意义研究从静态向动态的转向

形式语义学把语言处理为一种静态系统,而动态语义学则认为语言理解是一个动态的、变化的过程,更加注重对话语意义的研究.而对动态语义学的基础概念"信息状态"有"个体的理解"和"社会的理解"两种,应正确对待意义研究动态转向给意义的理解带来的深远影响.     

Mobilities and peace

This article considers how an increasingly visible set of mobilities has implications for how peace and conflict are imagined and responded to. We are particularly interested in how these mobilities take form in everyday actions and shape new forms of peace and challenge existing ones. The article considers fixed categories associated with orthodox peace such as the international, borders and the state that are predicated on territorialism, centralized governance, and static citizenship. The article can be read as a critique of liberal peacebuilding and a contribution to current debates on migration, space and the everyday. Through conceptual scoping we develop the notion of mobile peace to characterize the fluid ways in which is being constructed through the mobilitiy of people and ideas.     

认同的分化与全球化时代民族国家的挑战

全球化时代民族国家面临的认同分化既有纵向的也有横向的,在这里作者主要探讨的是横向的阶层分化：首先从认同整合的角度回顾了近代西方民族国家的形成及“公民权”和“人民”两种认同整合机制;其次,从经济全球化带来的阶层认同分化的角度分析了民族国家面临的政治挑战;最后,提出在新的历史条件下,民族国家以及当代中国在这一问题上面临的双重挑战。

Your position in society matters for how happy you are

This article shows that people's perception of their position in society is strongly correlated with their level of happiness, and thus that differences in happiness levels among countries in different welfare state clusters are influenced by people's perceptions of their relative position in society (subjective position). The study drew on data from the European Social Survey. Two important findings emerged from the analysis. First, an individual's subjective position in society is a more important predictor of happiness than objective measures such as income, education and labour market position. Second, the link between individuals’ perceived position in society and their level of happiness is moderated by the welfare state. In the Nordic countries, people's perceptions of their position in society have less influence on happiness whereas in Eastern European countries we found a strong connection between subjective position and happiness.
