Articulating the threatened suffragette body: suffragette embroidered cloths worked in Holloway Prison, 1911–1912

ABSTRACT

In public archives there are a number of hand-embroidered cloths worked by suffragettes incarcerated in Holloway Prison between 1911 and 1912. Denied political status, some of the embroiderers used the hunger strike as a political tool and were forcibly fed. In this paper the embroideries are reframed as material and discursive evidence of suffragette prison experiences. The material narratives of the embroidered cloths are traced, drawing on a dialogue between critical theory, material object enquiry, practice as research and the work of contemporary textile practitioners. Embroidering by suffragettes is explored as an embodied and situated ‘thread act’ that materialised the making of networks, the need for protection of the body and mind, the powers and dangers of boundary crossing, and proto-political thinking.

法学专业实习之反思与借鉴

法学专业实习作为实践教育的重要环节,在法学本科教育中有着重要的作用。面对当前法学本科教育专业实习日益严重的形式化倾向,有必要反思法学专业实习的必要性,并在此基础上实现法学专业实习模式的创新。本文以全新的教育观念为指导思想,在比较借鉴世界各国法学实践教育经验的基础上,结合我国的法学教育实际及在实践中积累的经验,提出可行的建议。     

A SHORT COMMENTARY ON TIMOTHY M. TIPPINS AND JEFFREY P. WITTMANN'S "EMPIRICAL AND ETHICAL PROBLEMS WITH CUSTODY RECOMMENDATIONS

In this commentary, the call for clinical humility and judicial vigilance in custody recommendations is confirmed as valid and the Australian experience, where the child custody report writer has for some years been permitted to express an opinion on the ultimate issue, is considered. The inherent risks are briefly discussed, and the question of who of the judge and the social scientist might be better placed to decide the exquisitely difficult children's issues after family breakdown is touched upon. It suggests that a combination of the expert's opinion and judicial fact finding probably produces a result that is as good as it gets. But a greater danger is highlighted. It is the impact of the adversary system, and whether it is suitable in any event to these sensitive court decisions.

西方女性主义学术思想的传播及其本土实践--对当前中国妇女研究的思考

10多年来,西方女性主义学术思想在中国的传播,对于我国学界新的学术理念的确立、研究方法和思维方式的转变以及学科建设等方面产生了促进作用.但作为舶来品的西方女性主义,在引进和传播的过程中,如何与中国本土的妇女理论研究和妇女解放实践密切结合,仍将是今后一段时期内妇女研究不可回避的一个重要理论问题.因此,当前应着重处理好学术与政治之间、提高与普及之间、全球化与本土化之间的关系.

论侦查观念创新的实现机带

当前形势下,实现侦查观念的创新是一种必然的选择。侦查实践的辩证本性是实现侦查观念创新的动力机制,侦查认识的一般规律和侦查直觉思维构成了侦查观念创新的思维机制,合规律性和合目的性是侦查观念创新的内在约束机制,而侦查工作法治化进程的不断推进、社会犯罪的发展变化以及刑事执法要求的不断提高则构成侦查观念创新的外部环境机制。     

学风建设是党校建设的根本
