Do Anti-Bullying Laws Reduce In-School Victimization,Fear-based Absenteeism,and Suicidality for Lesbian,Gay, Bisexual,and Questioning Youth?

Lesbian, gay, and bisexual youth are at heightened risk for bullying and other forms of in-school victimization. Anti-bullying laws are a potential policy mechanism for addressing this issue, yet there has been little investigation of the impact of such policies for this population using generalizable samples or quasi-experimental designs. The current study explores whether the presence of state anti-bullying laws predicts lower likelihood of bullying victimization, fear-based absenteeism, in-school threats or injury with a weapon, and suicidality for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and questioning high school students in the United States. Based on Youth Risk Behavior Survey data across 22 states from 2005–2015, coupled with data about the presence of general and enumerated anti-bullying laws that include sexual orientation as a protected class, this study analyzes this topic using a quasi-experimental design (linear difference-in-difference models). The results indicate that lesbian, gay, bisexual, and questioning youth (particularly boys aged 15 or younger) experienced less bullying victimization in states with general or enumerated anti-bullying laws. There was modest evidence of a reduction in fear-based absenteeism among boys in states with such laws. However, there was little evidence of a relationship between such policies and in-school threats or injuries or suicidality. Further, lesbian, bisexual, and questioning girls’ likelihood of victimization, absenteeism, or suicidality was generally not related to the presence of anti-bullying laws. The results suggest that general and enumerated anti-bullying laws may help reduce bullying victimization for gay, bisexual, and questioning boys.     

谢谢你,上海,我们收获满满

桑植尘肺工:活着,等待,死去

病房静悄悄,几乎能嗅得到渐渐逼近的死亡气息。54岁的谷成光侧卧在床,嘶哑的一阵咳嗽,一口痰涌向喉管,儿子赶紧把地上的篓子递上前,痰咳出来,他的脸色没刚才那么难看。如果不是插在鼻孔的氧气机管子,也许一声剧烈的咳嗽就要了他的命。     

是耶,非耶,工会红娘？

人有情感和归属的需求,家庭能提供人＂温馨需求＂。然而今天,年轻人的婚恋越来越难,剩男剩女已成为一种社会现象。古人云：先成家后立业。从一定程度可看出＂成家＂对＂立业＂的影响,一份稳定的情感能给人的心灵带来稳定与安宁,从而促使其健康而顺利地成长。鉴于年轻人对婚恋的渴望,如今社会上各种相亲活动异常火爆。     

明天,春暖花开

2002，崭新的又一年。总在这种时候，在“邻墙旋打娱宾酒，稚子齐歌乐岁之系”的时候，我便关上门，坐在桌前，点亮一盏桔黄色的灯，放下厚厚的窗帘。人总是应该从光阴流逝的纷繁中偶尔抽身出来，让自己像一个不食人间烟火的隐士，在憧憬和虚幻的美妙中飞翔，只一瞬间这样的飞翔，人就在沉重的红尘之外，若一抹闪烁妩媚的虹。而此刻，我正开始梦幻和飞翔。从明天起，做一个幸福的人，喂马，劈柴，周游世界。从明天起，关心粮食和蔬菜，我有一所房子，面朝大海，春暖花开。明天就是新的一年，新的一天。我想抛弃过往，抛弃那些钻进钢筋水泥见…     

那时,年少

朋友,又是1月,又是一个南国的新年,为何我总在这样的时节想起你们,想起从前?在这个城市的冬季,空气里仍然有从前那种微寒而微湿的气息。常常立在湖边,瑟缩在料峭的风中,看湖上的白鸥,年年飞渡千山万水,来此寻一个安憩之所。不经意间,竟未觉得时间的流逝。然而已是十余年了,湖边的垂柳依然柔条千尺,却也绾不回我们堤边同坐     

遵循规律,抓住特点,办好成人高校

党的十一届三中全会以来,我国成人高等教育,特别是各类管理干部教育,得到了迅速的发展,已经成为整个教育事业的极为重要的组成部分。成人高校的发展,对于缓和社会急需专业人才的紧缺情况,推动社会主义建设,起了积极作用。事实证明,成人高校是培养各种专门人才和管理干部的有效途径。当前,成人高校普遍存在两个问题:一是社会上有些同志对成人高校教育的重要性认识不足,对成人高校的改革与发展重视不够;二是成人高校在教学和管理中套用普通高校学历教育的模式。产生这两个问题的一个基本原因,就是没有认清成人高等教育的特点和规律。因此,遵循成人教育的规律,努力探索成人高等教育的特点,促进教育改革,成为成人高校健康发展的一个值得探讨和亟待解决的问题。     

Labor History—Past,Present, and Future

ABSTRACT

While much recent literature has focused on the environmental cost of carbon fuels, these sources of energy generated large human costs in the work environment as well. Work in coal mines was famously dangerous. And while petroleum, gas extraction and refining were also risky, this paper demonstrates that they were far less dangerous than was coal, while energy productivity per worker was also higher in oil than coal. Relying in part on previously unexploited data, the paper also shows that on the eve of World War II, the human costs of energy – measured by fatalities per btu of output – were sharply less in oil and gas production than in coal mining. Thus the great twentieth century energy transition from coal to liquid and gaseous fuels reduced both the environmental and the workplace costs per unit of energy.

我飞,我飞,和天一样高

现代人的生活空间越来越窄了。城市的膨胀,将人们的活动范围无形地限制进了人工和混凝土的构筑。迫于这种压力,人们那种想像鸟儿一样飞翔的欲望也越来越强烈。对于大多数的人而言,飞的形式仍限于坐在飞机里作俯瞰云海的     

Land,conflict, and political process: the case of the Lacandon Community,Chiapas, Mexico (1972–2012)

This contribution analyses how indigenous land disputes have taken place within a political process and the political responses to land tenure disputes. It does so by analysing the case of the Comunidad Zona Lacandona (Lacandon Community; Chiapas, Mexico) and the land tenure disputes in which it has been involved during the period 1972–2012. The paper argues that the Lacandon Community (LC) has a micro-corporatist relationship with the state and that its creation has brought its beneficiaries (comuneros) into an ongoing dynamic of conflict and cooperation with the state, fellow landed communities, social and non-governmental organisations and guerrillas. By analysing its relationship with the state and the 40-year long conflict, the paper presents the way in which the LC has defended its land rights within institutional channels as well as by means of contentious action. The essay also shows how conflict has been dealt with within a political process and contributes to the theoretical understanding of the categories of micro-corporatism and political process as they are employed in those cases where indigenous peoples enter into conflict over land. Data for this paper comes from interviews, agrarian archives, public information requests, newspaper articles and ethnographies on the case study and the region.     

“用真心,付真情,办实事,见实效”——昆明市富民县工会工作纪实

富民县是昆明的北大门,素有"滇北锁阴"之称,因为土壤肥沃,气候宜人,物产丰富,故称"富民"。其县域经济被省委、省政府表彰为全省20个发展先进县之一。县城旁边,新建的昆武高速(昆明—武定)即将通车。到时,富民距昆明只有19公里,15分钟的车程,后花园式"美丽富民、宜居辅城、幸福新区"的发展定位得到助推,"富民"之望当更上一层楼。
