生态消费的法律保障:应然抉择与实然存在的研究

生态消费是一种生态化的消费模式,生态消费对于传统消费方式的超越和变革决定了它不是一般意义上的问题,而是关系到人类活动的重大社会问题,生态消费需要法律的保障.法律对社会利益的追求和维护、消费者社会义务的法律化以及和谐社会秩序对法律的需求为生态消费法律的创设确定了应然基础.作为一种长期的客观存在,生态消费法律在国内外立法实践中都有所落实和体现.生态消费法律主要包括了消费者社会义务制度、政府绿色采购制度和生态消费税收制度.我国应顺应消费模式变革的迫切需要,建立起适合我国国情的生态消费法律保障体系.     

国际间国内生产总值比较中的若干问题探讨

国内生产总值(GDP)是反映一国所有常住单位在核算期内生产活动最终成果的总量指标,是所有经济分析和国际间比较研究中使用频率最高的一个重要指标。我国的国内生产总值指标无论在生产范围、总产出及其估价、中间消耗及其估价等方面还是在计算方法方面都与SNA(1993年版)核算体系中的该指标有所不同,因此,在国际间比较GDP指标时应慎重。

论我国自然人破产制度的建立——从法经济学的角度分析

对于我国破产法是否应当包括自然人破产制度,学界观点不一。从《破产法》(草案)中可看出,合伙的破产能力得到了认可,但却未赋予自然人有破产能力。对于这一问题笔者试从法经济学的角度加以分析,主张在我国应建立自然人破产制度。     

关于农宅建设的调查与思考

The manufacturing of Islamic lifestyles in Tajikistan through the prism of Dushanbe's bazaars

ABSTRACT

This article traces the multiple ways of ‘manufacturing’ Islamic lifestyles in the urban environment of Tajikistan's capital city, Dushanbe. The city's bazaars serve as a lens through which to observe the conjunction of its booming trade business with Dubai alongside its growing Islamic commodity culture and a religious reformism that is inspired by the materiality and non-materiality of a progressive and hybrid Dubai Islam. Bringing together long-distance trade, urban consumption practices and new forms of public piety in the mobile livelihood of three bazaar traders and sellers, the article provides insights into how the commodification of Islam informs notions of urbanity and modernity in Tajikistan. These notions correspond to the launching of urban renewal and the meta-narrative of Dushanbe's future as a modern city on the rise. Furthermore, the article illustrates the ways in which Dushanbe's Muslims turn bazaars into an urban laboratory for religious agency and cultural identities.     

The role of leisure activities and social attitudes in the mass media consumption of a sample of South African adults: A psychographic approach

Abstract

This study, the second in a two-article series, explores the interplay between attitudes, behaviour and media consumption in a sample of South African adults. Participants aged 16 years and older were drawn from a subsample of data collected during the 2007A South African Advertising Research Foundation (SAARF) All Media and Products Survey (AMPS®). Utilising statistical comparison of psychographic typologies, this study confirmed the existence of significant, albeit weak, relationships between mass media consumption, social attitudes and leisure interests/activities in this sample. Analyses of demographic variables revealed further significant relationships between mass media consumption and home language, work status, the SAARF Lifestages and the SAARF Universal Living Standards Measure (SU-LSM®). The findings are discussed in relation to available empirical literature and the need for advancement of the media psychology sub-discipline in South Africa.

Housing and ethopolitics: constructing identities of active consumption and responsible community

Recent developments in social housing policy, including large-scale stock transfers, have been proclaimed as marking ‘the death of council housing’ in the UK. The decline of public housing and new techniques for the governance of social housing provision are symbolic of the transformation of welfarist social regimes in advanced liberal democracies. This paper explores recent social housing policy in the UK and suggests that policy developments reflect changes in technologies for governing the conduct of social housing tenants and practitioners. The ethopolitics (Rose 2001) of social housing are characterized by emerging identities of active, entrepreneurial consumption and the invocation of responsibilized community. The paper examines how ethopower is manifested through technologies of social housing governance and identifies conflicts inherent within this new politics of conduct.
