论儒家伦理的宗教功能及其文化作用——兼与基督教文化比较

如果说,西方伦理是从属于基督教、是基督教派生的,上帝之死会导致伦理价值的崩溃;那么,儒家伦理则是由现实的血缘关系出发的一种准宗教文化建构.虽然“儒教”并非宗教而是一种伦理教化,然而,这种伦理教化却具有宗教的功能.它既能够慰藉个体的孤独情怀,又能以伦理架构的整体性超越死亡.儒家的伦理本位与基督教的上帝本位导致中西文化很多方面的不同,无论是将个体生命融入家国族类的整体、追求现世的自我还善,还是五四反传统的传统动因,都打上了儒家伦理的深刻印记.     

和谐社会条件下效率与公平的和谐与统一研究

社会主义的本质决定了社会主义和谐社会应当既是一个高效率的社会,又是一个充分体现社会公平的社会;中国共产党领导广大人民构建社会主义和谐社会的过程,既是一个不断提高经济效率的过程,同时也是一个切实保障和促进社会公平的过程。本文主要探讨了在社会主义和谐社会构建过程中,如何以经济发展和社会发展的辩证统一关系为切入点,在经济效率和经济公平、社会效率和社会公平的不同层次贯彻不同的效率与公平原则,从而实现效率与公平的良性互动,达到二者的和谐统一。     

法律价值再检讨:以自由为视角

通过概念金字塔对法律价值的问题史进行梳理是研究法律价值的传统进路。然而,法律是一种实践性的存在,对法律价值的认识应跳出"主体-客体"的研究范式。对法律价值的检讨可以基于自由要素展开。首先,从个体自由出发检讨个人主义在法律价值问题上从身份到契约的转变过程。其次,追问社会契约论视角下国家共同体建构问题是证明个人自由的实效性,以及检验共同体正当性的可行路径。而法律价值如何涵摄人权价值是探讨个体自由不可或缺的一环。     

CHINA＇S LATEST MARRIAGE LAW AMENDMENT AND FAMILY PROPERTY： TRADITION AND MODERNITY

China＇s latest Marriage Law amendment illustrates how tradition contributes to China＇s modernity. Traditionally, a house was a necessity for a marriage in China. This is because in ancient China, marriage secured the continuation of the family line and provision for ancestors. In modern China, the one child policy and soaring housing prices collectively force the ＂three families＂ to buy a house for the new couple. However, what happens when the couple divorces？ Shall the house then be considered community property？ The 2011 Judicial Interpretation of the Supreme People ＂s Court of Several Issues on the Application of the Marriage Law of the People＇s Republic of China, provides that where real estate is purchased by the parents of one party, and after the party＇s marriage is registered under the party＇s name, such real estate shall be deemed as a gift given by the parents to the party and the party＇s personal property. This interpretation represents a compromise between tradition and modernity.
The article will firstly introduce the marriage system in ancient China, illustrating that under the doctrine ofli, the real purpose of marriage was to be a bond of love between two （families of differenO surnames. Retrospectively, this secured observance of ancestral rituals in the ancestral temple, and prospectively, continuation of the family line. The house was a necessity for marriage because one of the six ceremonies required for marriage under li was the procession, and then welcome of the bride at the groom ＂s home. （Other ceremonies involved a matchmaker securing a proposal, matching auspicious birthdates, exchanging gifts between the bride＇s and groom＇s families, setting an auspicious wedding date, honoring ancestors and deities, and having an elaborate banquet）.
The article will then analyze the marriage law in the of Republic of China, in which even the post-dynasty marriage law adopted the western marriage system, the strong resistance of the old tradition forced the law-     

亲属拒证权制度与亲属伦理结构关系研究

亲属拒证权制度因有助于维护良好的亲属伦理秩序而得到世界各国的普遍认可,这一制度与社会亲属伦理结构之间存在紧密联系。亲属拒证权制度是社会主流亲属伦理观在刑事证人制度中的体现;亲属拒证权制度的制度设计对社会伦理结构具有引导作用,二者之间是一种决定与引导的互动关系。应当根据我国当前亲属伦理结构现状完善亲属拒证权制度,亦应当利用亲属拒证权制度确立的契机引导良好亲属伦理结构的巩固与完善。     

地方水生态:牧区水文化的价值、风险与化解

在西藏牧区长期的生活中,人们形成了特有的水文化。扎西乡水文化体现出两大价值,并受到潮流化生活方式和文化的影响。对扎西乡水文化的风险化解与对水文化的引导具有可行性,要重视引导的三大要义。在实践纬度上,应着重从“生态-经济-社会”三位一体的全局中多维度考虑风险化解之途以及对地方性生态文化的引导方向与途径。     

购置款抵押权的竞存对抗规则研究

满足《民法典》第416条要件的购置款抵押权可以对抗公示在先的固定担保权,此种处理模式虽使外部债权人负担一定审查成本,但总体上符合利益衡量视角下的比例原则。《民法典》在浮动抵押领域中采取“登记主义”的立场,与“超级优先权规则”形成了体系性的规范协调。购置款抵押权与留置权竞存时,后者始终处于优先受偿顺位。在功能主义视角下,所有权保留和融资租赁可准用超级优先权规则,但应作必要限制。购置款抵押权人不得对抗正常经营活动中已经支付合理价款并取得抵押财产的买受人。《民法典》未明文确立担保权收益延伸规则,但在理论层面上仍尚有将其纳入现行法体系的解释空间,且民事主体可在商业实践中通过意思自治达致类似效果。     

Working Overtime in East Asia: Convergence or Divergence?

Working long hours has become a routinised part of life in East Asia. The different patterns of overtime across this region are understudied, however. This study represents a first systematic attempt to analyse overtime and its determinants in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan and China by testing hypotheses that specify the distinctive influences of employment status and job contracts on work hours. Class exploitation, post-industrialism and flexibility theories are mobilised to identify distinctive but supplementary factors in long working hours. Using data from a recent four-country survey, a Tobit regression analysis of full-time workers’ hours reveals that employers and self-employed people work longer hours than hired workers across this region. Despite this convergence, there is a contrast across occupations. In Japan, overtime is positively associated with occupational prestige, while a reverse pattern operates in China, where low-skilled workers work more overtime. Contract workers in the private sector in South Korea and China also have longer overtime when compared to public sector employees. In sum, this study highlights more divergence than convergence of working conditions within East Asia.     

大数据应用于国际问题研究的意义及其局限——以《国际安全态势感知指数2016》为例

作为社会学科研究的国际问题研究需要回答四个方面的问题:描述性的问题、解释性的问题、预测性研究和对策性研究。严格遵循社会科学研究的程序,这四个方面的国际问题研究就会表现出一些共同特点:客观性或者说可重复性、规律性或者说普遍意义、简约性或者说主次分明。大数据研究能够让决策者获得更加全面、充分的信息,从而采取更加具有针对性的政策;在进行描述性的国际问题研究时,大数据可以起到十分突出、甚至是革命性的作用;在解释性的问题方面,大数据的长处是用来发现相关性,而不是做出因果解释;大数据还可以发现有价值的解释性问题;大数据在预测和对策研究方面的优势十分明显,它所发现的规律性现象不仅可以用来预测,也可以帮助人们做出选择。大数据应用到国际问题研究领域也有其局限性,有些局限性是这一方法本身所具有的,例如不能进行因果机制的分析和解释;有一些是国际问题研究领域所具有的,例如"成本-收益问题"、数据主权问题等。在国际问题研究领域,大数据并不适合用于做战略研究,而更多适宜于对国际发展态势的宏观描述以及为具体的外交行为提供精准的指导方案。总之,大数据有助于发现更全面和客观的事实、提出更多规律性的问题以及帮助研究进行预测和做出选择,但大数据自身不能完成整个解释的过程,需要研究者进行专业的因果机制的分析和解释。
