法律对社会冲突的控制与和谐社会的构建

现实社会是冲突与和谐的统一体。和谐社会并不是不存在冲突,而是社会制度能够最大限度减少冲突。中国目前正处在构建社会主义和谐社会时期,需要从法律制度上对各种社会冲突进行有效控制。在立法上,建立一种服务于大多数人利益整合的制度,实现对利益的分配、保障和和谐;在司法上,做到阻止非法利益、平衡合法利益、容许法外利益,实现司法公正。     

Beliefs About Wife Beating Among Arab Men from Israel: The Influence of Their Patriarchal Ideology

Despite the recent increase in public and professional interest in the problem of wife beating in Arab society, in Israel, and in the rest of the Arab world, there is a serious lack of empirical research on different dimensions of the problem in those societies. This paper presents the results of a survey conducted among a systematic random sample of 362 Arab husbands from Israel, in an attempt to examine the contribution of patriarchal ideology toward explaining their beliefs about wife beating. Although about 58% of the participants indicated that there is no excuse for a man to beat his wife, 15–62% still justified wife beating on certain occasions (e.g., adultery, failure to obey husbands, disrespect for parents and relatives). In addition, although the participants tended to perceive abusive and violent husbands as responsible for their behavior, 52% still expressed understanding of that behavior and, on some occasions, 23–43% even blamed the wife for violence against her. Regression and multiple regression analyses revealed that over and above the participants' age and level of education, their masculine sex-role stereotypes, negative and traditional attitudes toward women, nonegalitarian marital role expectations, and familial patriarchal beliefs were the most significant predictors of beliefs about wife beating. Implications of the results and limitations of the study are also discussed.

论公安校园文化的综合设置

大学校园文化是高校长期形成的、表现出特定人文内涵的客观精神和生成环境,是主导文化之外的文化活动与现象。它主要包含以校园环境布局、建筑雕塑等有形内容为主体的物质文化和以学风、校风、学术气氛、学校社团活动等精神层面内容为主体的精神文化两方面内容。由于公安校园文化在情操的陶冶、作风的培养、知识能力的提高、创新意识的强化等诸多方面都有积极的促进作用,因而,必须就校园物质景观、学风建设、校园文化活动的开展等方面,对校园文化建设进行综合设置,使其在公安教育和人才培养方面产生更大的合力。

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。

Remortgaging Women's Lives: The World Bank'sLand Agenda in Africa

In recent months, the World Bank has issued a series of draft policy reports on land relations. This is the first time in over two decades that the Bank has sought to review its policy on lending in the land sector. Access to the draft reports and participation in the consultation process has, however, been severely limited. Nonetheless, the World Bank expects to issue the final Report by the end of this year. This paper presents a gender analysis of the two draft documents that have been made available to date. It assesses their implications for gender relations in Africa. It explores the World Bank's promotion of formal rural credit and challenges the assumption of the availability of women's unpaid agricultural labour. The paper argues that, far from being over, the struggle over land relations which has characterised the last decade in Africa, must continue. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
