古代中国侦查活动中的民众意识

古代中国为了减少隐案，提高侦破工作效能，一方面通过制定政策法律，鼓励、引导甚至强迫民众协助、参与侦查活动，同时，办案官员因案施策，充分调动民众参与侦查破案的积极性，以实现侦查效能的最大化。这种民众意识的形成，一是由于民众自身的利益需求给司法官员的启示；二是由于历史条件的制约及侦查资源匮乏的客观需求；三是由于后人对前人成功经验的学习和继承。

反哺:民间文艺市场的经济学——兼论现代性的民俗学

就表象而言,受工具理性左右,改革开放以来的民间文艺市场出现了前所未有的兴旺之势.新世纪以来的非物质文化遗产运动使衍生于农耕文明的民间文艺受到主流意识形态前所未有的重视.顺势而生的民间文艺的权威--媒介学者与为政者、开发商一道主动担负了传统民间文艺重建的重任.民间文艺的传承传播呈现出从官媒精英到民众、社区的反哺状态,民间文艺市场一贯有的供需关系发生了变化.民间文艺的反哺实则割裂了被工业文明以及信息文明主宰并追寻着都市生活方式的民众的日常生活世界,关注当下现代性浸染的公民的日常生活也就成为中国民俗学前进的方向.     

Thirty Years of Chinese Contemporary Art

IN 2007, Chinese artists heed a number of retrospective exhibitions, such as the Retrospective Exhibition of the No Name Group （1979）, the Exhibition of 1985 Avant-garde Fine Art, the Retrospective Exhibition of the Star Art Group of 30 Years Ago, and the Exhibition of the Qingdao Dream of Modern Artists in the 1980s. Thirty years ago, however, many of the works now openly displayed were exhibited unofficially, and some were even banned by the government. Conventional wisdom holds that China＇s contemporary art can be divided into four periods - the first being the post-＂cultural revolution＂ period of 1976-1984, the second lasting from 1985 to 1989, the third from 1990 to 1999, and the fourth from 1999 to the present.
