日本走向政治大国的蹒跚之路--从日本对二战侵略罪行的反省态度说起

自上个世纪80年代以来,日本一直为谋求“正常国家”待遇、实现向政治大国的转变而努力。然而,日本要想真正成为“政治大国”,就必须注重软权力的巩固,尤其是国家形象的塑造。而要做到这一点,日本应该首先在二战侵略罪行上反省。     

Key longitudinal-experimental studies in criminology

Following the tradition of Joan McCord's work, this paper reviews longitudinal-experimental studies in criminology with community samples of at least 100 persons, follow-up periods of at least 5 years, personal interviews, and measures of offending. The main advantages of such studies are in investigating both the natural history of development (including the effects of risk/protective factors and life events) and the impact of interventions on offending. This paper also reviews advantages and problems of prospective longitudinal surveys, randomized experiments, and longitudinal-experimental studies in criminology. Four key longitudinal-experimental studies were conducted by Joan McCord, Richard Tremblay, Lawrence Schweinhart and David Olds. Other studies have been conducted, or are currently under way, but no criminological study has yet been published with several years of personal data on participants both before and after an intervention.Joan McCord Award Lecture given at the American Society of Criminology, Toronto, Canada.     

埃塞俄比亚职业资格证书体系的建设

埃塞俄比亚的职业技术教育与培训目前尚处于边改革、边建设的过程中,最终目标是建立一个以就业为导向,以需求为基础的有利于全国经济发展的职业技术教育与培训体系。改革的重点是职业资格证书体系,包括职业标准的开发、职业资格鉴定和职业资格证书。目前埃塞已建立50个职业标准,为企业和培训机构提供了统一的标准。但由于埃塞的职业资格证书体系尚处在建设和完善阶段,存在培训质量不高、认证体系不够灵活等问题。因此,进一步开发职业标准、加强师资队伍建设、完善课程体系、改善办学条件是埃塞职业资格证书体系建设今后要完成的主要任务。     

朝鲜核试验与六方会谈:评估与展望

2006年12月18日,六方会谈得以重启,但最后仍然无果而返.朝鲜半岛无核化到底能否实现?六方会谈是否还有进行下去的意义?核问题的发展趋势会使朝鲜半岛陷入何种动荡和危机升级的局面?我们又将如何应对?本文将以这些令人困扰的问题为切入点,对朝鲜和美国在核问题上的相关行动、意图及各要素之间的互动关系进行分析,就朝鲜核问题的发展态势做出大致的预测,进而为正确认识矛盾的症结和解决问题的难度、寻找缓和与控制危机的良策提供一些思路.     

NO COMMUNITY IS AN ISLAND: THE EFFECTS OF RESOURCE DEPRIVATION ON URBAN VIOLENCE IN SPATIALLY AND SOCIALLY PROXIMATE COMMUNITIES*

The link between resource deprivation and urban violence has long been explored in criminological research. Studies, however, have largely ignored the potential for resource deprivation in particular communities to affect rates of violence in others. The relative inattention is notable because of the strong theoretical grounds to anticipate influences that extend both to geographically contiguous areas and to those that, though not contiguous, share similar social characteristics. We argue that such influences—what we term spatial and social proximity effects, respectively—constitute a central feature of community dynamics. To support this argument, we develop and test theoretically derived hypotheses about spatial and social proximity effects of resource deprivation on aggregated and disaggregated homicide counts. Our analyses indicate that local area resource deprivation contributes to violence in socially proximate communities, an effect that, in the case of instrumental homicides, is stronger when such communities are spatially proximate. We conclude by discussing the implications of our findings for theories focused on community‐level social processes and violence, and for policies aimed at reducing crime in disadvantaged areas.
