构建和谐社会中的和谐管理探析

和谐管理是和谐社会的应有之义,构建和谐社会必须加强和谐管理。和谐管理要素是和谐管理的基础,既要重视和谐管理主体与实体,又要重视和谐管理机制;和谐管理层次是和谐管理的关键,在基本制度层和谐的前提下,必须做好三个层次的和谐,即和谐管理体制层、和谐管理运行层、和谐管理沟通层。在构建和谐社会过程中,和谐管理会面临新考验、新任务、新情况,这就要积极探索社会主义市场经济条件下和谐管理规律,使和谐管理在构建和谐社会中发挥重要作用。     

补肾活血通络针刺法联合中药熏洗疗法治疗肝肾亏虚型膝骨关节炎临床观察

目的 观察补肾活血通络针刺法联合中药熏洗疗法治疗老年性膝骨关节炎（knee osteoarthritis,KOA）的临床疗效。方法 将76例KOA患者按照随机数字表法分为对照组和观察组,每组38例;对照组采用西医常规治疗,观察组在对照组治疗基础上采用补肾活血通络针刺法联合中药熏洗疗法治疗;观察两组患者治疗前后视觉模拟量表（visual analogue scale,VAS）评分,西安大略和麦克马斯特大学骨关节炎指数（the Western Ontario and McMaster University osteoarthritis index,WOMAC）,Lequesne MG评分,关节液白细胞介素（interleukin,IL）-1β、IL-6、肿瘤坏死因子（tumor necrosis factor,TNF）-α水平,血清环氧化酶-2（cyclooxygenase-2,COX-2）、基质金属蛋白酶-3（matrix metalloproteinase-3,MMP-3）水平的变化情况及临床疗效。结果 两组患者治疗后VAS评分、WOMAC、Lequesne MG评分均较治疗前显著降低（P＜0.05）,且观察组降低程度较对照组更显著（P＜0.05）。两组患者治疗后关节液IL-1β、TNF-α、IL-6水平,血清COX-2、MMP-3水平均较治疗前显著降低（P＜0.05）,且观察组降低程度较对照组更显著（P＜0.05）。观察组疗效优于对照组（P＜0.05）。结论 补肾活血通络针刺法联合中药熏洗疗法可显著改善KOA患者临床症状,减轻疼痛,改善膝关节功能。     

安倍治下的日本对华政策:从战略制衡到战术避险

日本的对华外交深受国际体系和中美日三角关系的影响。由于中美两个大国在全球层面的战略竞争加剧,以2017年为分水岭,第二次安倍内阁领导下的日本的整体对华外交政策经历了从"战略制衡"向"战术避险"方向的转变。在2017年以前,日本为了联美对华实施"战略制衡",在外交方面,以"印太战略"孤立中国;在安全方面,加强岛屿防卫能力和强化日美同盟;在经济方面,大力支持"跨太平洋伙伴关系协定"和对"一带一路"倡议持冷淡态度。在2017年以后,在中美关系的不确定性增大的情况下,安倍领导下的日本对华实施"战术避险"。在外交方面,加强印太战略的开放性、领导人互访和对华自制;在安全方面,继续强化国防上的内部制衡;在经济方面,有条件地认同"一带一路"倡议并对华展开第三方市场合作。展望未来,令和时代的日本将是一个拥有部分战略自主的中等强国,在日美同盟框架下维持与中国有距离的交往,力图在瞬息万变的国际政治角力中实现日本国家利益的最大化。     

‘A Pioneer in the Struggle for Social Justice’: Manuel Larraín and Transnational Catholic Activism in Latin America in the 1950s and 1960s

This article explores the development of inter-American Catholicism during the 1950s and 1960s. It analyses the role of the Chilean Catholic bishop Manuel Larraín (1900–1966) in his efforts to disseminate his diagnosis of underdevelopment in Latin America and to establish links with the Catholic world in the United States. Based on a review of his writings, the American press and documentation from Catholic organisations, it is suggested that the Chilean bishop advocated the implementation of social reforms and American collaboration to prevent the advance of communism and strengthen Catholicism on the continent.     

Finanzpolitik als Nachahmungswettbewerb: Empirische Ergebnisse zu Budgetinterdependenzen unter den Schweizer Kantonen

This article examines whether spending decisions in Swiss cantons are interdependent, that is, whether the spending decisions of a canton are influenced by those of other cantons. Theoretically, fiscal policy imitation among cantons can be interpreted as a process of policy and innovation diffusion, as a result of tax competition or as a consequence of federalism as a policy laboratory. The panel analysis presented in this article provides evidence of the existence of budget spillovers among neighbouring cantons. Cantonal governments do not take spending decisions in isolation, but by systematically comparing the fiscal policies in neighbouring cantons.     

Whither the Liberal Democratic Model? Immigration Politics in Switzerland and Japan

A comparison of Japan's and Switzerland's immigration policies disclaims both globalist and public choice explanations that would predict a similar increase in immigrant numbers and an expansion of immigrant rights in liberal democracies. Although both countries have traditionally espoused a rather exclusionary approach towards immigration, Japan is unique in having hitherto succeeded in preempting large numbers of immigrants from entering the country and in having avoided the legal and societal integration of those migrants already present in its territory. In seeking to explain the different trajectories followed by immigration politics in Japan and Switzerland, despite their similar internal and external economic constellations, this article highlights the role of domestic institutions and norms in filtering economic pressure for immigration. Whereas these internal determinants explain to a large degree why Switzerland has become a country of immigration while Japan has not, the central factor explaining the recent expansion of foreign residents’ rights in Switzerland lies not so much in internal determinants but in the country‘s progressing approximation to the European Union and its single market. Notwithstanding these differences, the article concludes that Japan‘s greater resistance to change might now have reached a critical juncture, where demographic pressure and economic demand will make an opening up to increased labor migration unavoidable.     

Efficacy, Self-Derogation, and Alcohol Use Among Inner-City Adolescents: Gender Matters

Prior studies have found inconsistent relationships between measures of self-concept and adolescent alcohol use. The current study explored whether the link between various measures of self-concept and alcohol use depends on gender. In addition, earlier work suggested a focus on negative self-esteem (i.e., self-derogation) might be more useful in predicting alcohol use. Students (N = 1459) attending 22 middle and junior high schools in New York City completed surveys that included measures of efficacy, self-derogation, and alcohol use. Participants completed surveys at baseline, 1-year follow-up, and 2-year follow-up. Data collectors administered the questionnaire following a standardized protocol during a regular 40-min-class period. On the basis of a longitudinal structural equation model, lower efficacy was related to greater self-derogation a year later across gender. Increased self-derogation predicted higher alcohol use for girls but not boys. These findings are congruent with a literature highlighting the importance of negative thoughts about the self in drinking behavior for women but not men. The results suggest that the alcohol prevention approaches should include material to enhance girls' self-esteem.

试论政策执行中的政府利益

作为政策执行主体的政府,客观上存在着与公共利益不同的自身利益。政府利益的存在及其冲突是导致政策执行偏差的重要原因。对政府利益进行合理的整合与规范是保证政策有效执行的重要途径。
