青年研究的代际更替及现状解析(上)

本文将青年研究30年的代际更替放在社会变迁的背景下来考察,指出从上个世纪70年代末至90年代初青年研究作为一个学术领域的诞生和繁荣,到90年代初中期至世纪之交青年研究逐步走向沉寂和分化,再到2000年之后青年研究重新复苏以来呈现的泡沫化与多元化,这一迭宕起伏的历史反映了共青团血统出身的青年研究贯穿始终的学科化焦虑。长期以来徘徊纠结于意识形态化传统和学术规范化传统之间,造成了青年研究的现实困境。而要改变这种不景气的现状,青年研究必须通过范式变革走向非青年化和非学科化。     

It's a Man's World?

Abstract

This study focuses on the role of gender in Internet campaigning. Empirically, the research is expanded beyond the United States by exploring candidate Web campaigning in the 2003 Finnish parliamentary elections. The results of the empirical analysis show that female candidates put up Web sites in a higher degree than their male counterparts. However, gender itself is not a significant factor for being online. Moreover, utilizing a matched-pairs design, the analysis suggests that male and female candidates take advantage of the new communication technology in a similar way and that female candidates do not build a distinct feminine candidate profile online.     

Migrant Workers or Working Women? Comparing Labour Supply Policies in Post-War Europe

ABSTRACT

Why did some European countries choose migrant labour to expand their labour force in the decades that followed World War II, while others opted for measures to expand female employment via welfare expansion? The paper argues that gender norms and the political strength of the left were important structuring factors in these choices. Female employment required a substantial expansion of state intervention (e.g. childcare; paid maternity leave). Meanwhile, migrant recruitment required minimal public investments, at least in the short term, and preserved traditional gender roles. Using the contrasting cases of Sweden and Switzerland, the article argues that the combination of a weak left (labour unions and social democratic parties) and conservative gender norms fostered the massive expansion of foreign labour and a late development of female labour force participation in Switzerland. In contrast, more progressive gender norms and a strong labour movement put an early end to guest worker programmes in Sweden, and paved the way for policies to promote female labour force participation.     

德莱赛与菲茨杰拉德作品中的女主人翁形象对比

同为美国20世纪初最具代表性的文学巨匠,德莱塞和菲茨杰拉德处于同一时代背景之下,在创作的年代上有交集也有先后之序。然而由于各自不同的生活经历,个性心理以及所受不同哲学思想的影响,他们的写作技巧和文体风格迥异。因此,其笔下的女主人翁形象也大相径庭。德莱塞描摹的几乎全为被享乐欲望腐蚀的下层阶级女子,而菲茨杰拉德塑造的都是拜金虚荣的都市女郎。本文通过分析两位作家关注的不同社会阶层女性的人格丧失和道德沦丧的深层原由,展示了那个时代美国社会的浮华与喧嚣以及深藏其后的衰败。

中国古代妇女史研究的范式转移与问题意识

由于观念以及历史的原因,学界对于中国古代妇女史的研究长期处于低谷,但伴随着19世纪末西学东渐思潮以及西方女权主义思想的冲击,这一领域的研究逐渐升温,并在19世纪末至20世纪初、20世纪中期至70年代、20世纪80年代至今这三个大的历史时期内分别产生了不同的研究范式和问题意识。而这些研究范式和问题意识的不断推进和深化,不仅有助于我们重新理解历史中的女性,更有助于我们重新审视历史和历史进程,从而带动我们重新理解这个不仅仅属于男性,同时也属于女性的共同世界。     

Gender targets and trickle-down effects: Avoiding the ‘decoupling dynamics’ that limit female representation in senior roles

Women constitute the majority of the Australian public sector workforce, but their representation in senior roles is not proportional. Australian public services have gender targets to improve the representation of women in senior roles. Based on previous research, targets are expected to first increase female representation at the target's focal level, such as executive level. Then they should initiate a trickle-down effect (TDE), increasing female representation at the level immediately below the target's focal level, such as the executive feeder level. However, the TDE observed in a state public service decelerated after a gender target was imposed. We identified whether individual departments had a consistent or inconsistent TDE and conducted 13 semi-structured interviews with key stakeholders. Too many service-wide targets with low prioritisation of a gender target, as well as missing and ineffective practices, generated decoupling dynamics. Only departments with gender champions who had visible backing from the Chief Executive were able to keep the gender target coupled with practice to achieve its intended outcomes.

Points for practitioners

• Gender targets in Australian public services may not be achieving intended outcomes due to decoupling—a response to policies in which the policies are ignored and/or ineffective practices are implemented.
• Too many competing targets and limited accountability for achieving a gender target create a potential for decoupling by allowing individuals and groups to ignore or weakly adopt the policy.
• Integrated bundles of top-down (e.g. requiring at least two women on shortlists) and bottom-up practices (e.g. mentoring) can help avoid decoupling by ensuring women are appointed to senior roles and supported to progress through an organisation.
• Chief Executives are key to ensuring a gender target remains coupled with its implementation; Chief Executives must provide visible support to internal champions to make gender targets effective.

     

No One To Stand By Us: Reintegrating Formerly Abducted Child-Mothers in Uganda

The returnee child-mothers who have survived abduction by the Lord's Resistance Army return to civilian communities in Northern Uganda as stigmatized outsiders. They are child-mothers with children who are not accepted by the community. Years after they have returned to civilian communities they are struggling for themselves and their children. This failure to access security on a social, economic and personal level is found to garner further insecurities including neglect and abuse, which prevail and are passed on to their children. The need to provide reintegration and reconciliation assistance is recognized by both the international community and the Government of Uganda; however, it is found that assistance is failing to help this group of formerly abducted people to reintegrate in communities. This article analyses the multi-faceted perceptions and experiences of reintegration, identifying root causes and gaps where assistance can provide security and integration to these returnees.     

Her “vocal authority”: the semiotic and cultural soundscape of Chinese female rock singers’ voices in the late 1990s

This paper explores the vocal authority of Chinese female rock singers’ voices as semiotic and cultural rebellion against male-dominated rock aesthetics and the accepted sounds of women’s singing in popular music. The first of the paper’s two sections challenges the gendered stereotypes associated with female singers, and argues for the artistic significance embedded in the voice to set the exploration of subversive femininities, and, more importantly, to unveil the polysomic cultural and social making process of a distinctive personal voice. The second and longest section of the paper first creates theoretical dialogues regarding Potter, De Certeau, Shepherd and Barthes’ theories of voice and culture, and then presents the case analysis of three prominent Chinese female rocker singers, Zhang Qianqian, Wu Hongfei and Kang Mao. The analysis discusses distinctive “feminine noise” by excavating the cultural and institutional forces embedded in the vocal styles of these singers. The semiotic features of grain, timbre, articulation and volume in the voice demonstrate how the complex acoustic soundscape of “feminine noises” reveals the regional, ethnic, class and sexual formation of female musicians’ gender identity.
