LYNCHINGS,RACIAL THREAT,AND WHITES’ PUNITIVE VIEWS TOWARD BLACKS

Disparities in historical and contemporary punishment of Blacks have been well documented. Racial threat has been proffered as a theoretical explanation for this phenomenon. In an effort to understand the factors that influence punishment and racial divides in America, we draw on racial threat theory and prior scholarship to test three hypotheses. First, Black punitive sentiment among Whites will be greater among those who reside in areas where lynching was more common. Second, heightened Black punitive sentiment among Whites in areas with more pronounced legacies of lynching will be partially mediated by Whites’ perceptions of Blacks’ criminality and of Black‐on‐White violence in these areas. Third, the impact of lynching on Black punitive sentiment will be amplified by Whites’ perceptions of Blacks as criminals and as threatening more generally. We find partial support for these hypotheses. The results indicate that lynchings are associated with punitive sentiment toward Black offenders, and these relationships are partially mediated by perceptions of Blacks as criminals and as threats to Whites. In addition, the effects of lynchings on Black punitiveness are amplified among White respondents who view Blacks as a threat to Whites. These results highlight the salience of historical context for understanding contemporary views about punishment.     

美国的极地资源开发政策考察

在后《南极条约》时代,美国持续关注悬而未决的南极资源问题,强调在不破坏南极环境的情况下,自由开发南极资源的可能性。20世纪80年代,美国国内曾就是否设立南极资源开发制度发生激烈的争论。目前,南极的资源开发问题虽被冻结,但美国依然担心这一问题在未来仍将威胁南极条约体系的稳定性。同样,美国也通过了多个涉及北极主权和资源开发问题的政策和法律文件,并为资源开发做技术准备,以防在北极利益竞争中落后。但总的来看,美国越来越意识到开发极地资源与保护环境之间的矛盾,认为需防止因争夺资源而出现严重的国际争端。

Prevalence and demographic correlates of intimate partner violence in Asian Americans

This study provides the first national estimates of the prevalence and correlates of intimate partner violence (IPV) among Asian Americans. Population estimates are based on data from 1470 Asian Americans interviewed for the National Latino and Asian American Study. Interviews were conducted in English, Chinese, Tagalog, or Vietnamese. Results suggest that rates of IPV among Asian Americans are low compared to the general U.S. population. Minor violence victimization by a current intimate partner was reported by 10.2% of women and 12.0% of Asian American men. Notably, a greater proportion of participants admitted having perpetrated IPV than having been a victim. Predictors of IPV included younger age, higher SES, alcohol- and substance-use disorders, depression, ethnicity, and being U.S.-born. Results suggest the need for additional research to examine the interactions between gender, ethnicity, and acculturation to develop group-specific models of IPV risk and resilience within diverse Asian American groups.     

Self-esteem of young adults experiencing interparental violence and child physical maltreatment: parental and peer relationships as mediators

This study examined the joint impact of experiencing both interparental violence and child physical maltreatment on young adults' self-esteem. It also tested the hypothesis of parental and peer relationship qualities as mediators in the relationship between childhood histories of family violence and adult self-esteem. Data were collected from a national probability sample of 1,924 college students in Taiwan. Research results demonstrated that experiencing both interparental violence and physical maltreatment during childhood have long-term and detrimental impact on adult self-esteem. This impact was statistically independent of other potential confounding factors. Moreover, participants experiencing dual violence during childhood reported lower self-esteem than those experiencing only one type of family violence or none at all. Male participants who experienced dual violence reported lower self-esteem than female participants who experienced dual violence. Further analyses revealed that parental and peer relationship qualities mediated the joint impact of interparental violence and physical maltreatment on adult self-esteem.

阿根廷模式与新发展主义的兴起

2001年年底爆发金融危机和经济危机后,阿根廷政府从根本上否定了新自由主义经济模式,进行了一系列重大改革,逐步形成了一种与新自由主义和旧发展主义经济模式有着许多不同特点的新发展战略或模式,即所谓阿根廷模式或基什内尔模式.有的学者认为,阿根廷的经济发展实践是新发展主义在拉美兴起的标志.笔者认为,这是一种正在探索中的模式,因而也是一种不成熟的模式,甚至可以说是一种还"没有成型"的模式的雏形,在今后的实践中也许能逐步发展成一种切实可行的模式,也许最终走向彻底失败.但无论如何,现在它是阿根廷和其他拉美国家正在进行的探索性实践.

论构建和谐城市进程中的外来人口及其治安行政管理

外来人口对城市稳定与发展有着重大的影响,既有积极效应又有消极效应。从消极方面看,增加了城市负担,加剧了城市衣、食、住、行等方面的矛盾;从积极方面看,繁荣了市场,促进了城市物资、信息交流和经济发展,加快了城市建设的速度,大大促进了城市建设的发展,方便了城市人民生活,在稳定社会和构建和谐城市进程中起到了一定的积极作用。因此,对外来人口实行科学的治安行政管理,首选之策应该是以“动”制“动”,以“外”管“外”,保护外来人口的合法权益,寓管理于服务之中,引导外来人口的流出、流入,使之由盲目无序转为有目的、有秩序的流动。
