Cultural Equivalence and Cultural Variance in Longitudinal Associations of Young Adolescent Self-Definition and Interpersonal Relatedness to Psychological and School Adjustment

Ethnic group differences in the contributions of self-definition (self-worth and efficacy) and interpersonal relatedness with parents and peers to changes in psychological and school adjustment were examined among 448 White, Black, and Latino girls and boys (11–14 years of age). Self-report questionnaires and school records were evaluated for socioeconomic and ethnic group differences in patterns of change over 1 year. Overall similarity in changes over time across ethnic groups was found for relatedness, self-definition, and psychological adjustment, although Black and Latino youth reported more overall adjustment difficulties, Black youth reported less positive relationships with parents, and lower SES youth reported less positive peer relationships than others. Ethnic group differences in changes to school adjustment, even after controlling SES, suggested a cultural variation in which often cited declines in school adjustment during middle school characterize White adolescents to a greater degree than Black or Latino adolescents. Ethnicity moderated associations of relatedness and self-definition with psychological and school adjustment such that Black and Latino youth appeared particularly vulnerable to experiences that threaten closeness and trust in relationships. Results pointed to potentially important situational and cultural differences in maladaptive and adaptive developmental processes across ethnicity.     

论政府决策的责任追究

当前 ,政府决策尚未建立起有效的责任追究制。政府决策责任追究的前提是对责任的认定 ,责任认定的根本标准是政策决策是否损害了公民的合法权益 ,而责任追究的有效途径是将政府决策行为纳入行政复议、行政诉讼和司法监督制约范围之内。

Corporate citizenship and social responsibility in a globalized world

This article addresses the rise of corporate citizenship in the context of the changes in the nature of individual citizenship and the emergence of new, non‐territorial forms of national identity that are occurring in the current era of intensifying globalization. It also ponders the power of corporate citizens and the role they play in the prevailing global governance framework, as well as the extent to which they can behave responsibly and pursue sustainable development goals. More generally, the article discusses the limits to corporate social responsibility and the extent to which capitalism can be ‘caring’. The argument advanced is that, by virtue of their very nature, transnational corporations (TNCs) cannot become fully responsible and accountable citizens. Nonetheless, they can be induced to transform themselves in ways that may be compatible with socially and environmentally desirable objectives. Lastly, the article explores paths for action and, in particular, the potential of NGOs and anti‐globalization social movements to become civil regulators able to push for the introduction of binding rules and regulations and the construction a governance framework capable of restraining and harnessing the power of TNCs.

对我国计划生育政策的反思

本文从概述人口与经济的关系出发,用简单的人口增长模型论证了中国计划生育政策的必要性,阐述了其衍变过程;并从人口增长速度降低、占世界人口比重逐渐下降和人口转变乘数变小这三个角度对计划生育政策所取得的效果进行了评估。但是正如没有任何一项政策是十全十美的一样,中国在推行计划生育政策取得巨大成就的同时,也引发了一些问题。由于城乡之间政策本身、推行力度、经济水平以及生育观念的差异,我国乡村人口的自然增长率要高于城市,这导致我国人口发展存在着潜在的逆淘汰倾向。计划生育政策将我国的出生率在短期内强制性地压了下来,这种迅速的人口转变导致了人口老龄化的提前到来。与此同时,出生婴儿性别比例失调也是不容忽视的一个问题。最后,本文提出了应放松一胎化的政策建议。
