朝鲜半岛和平协定与和平机制

2007年以来东北亚局势的重大变化,使签定取代1953年朝鲜半岛《停战协定》的《和平协定》时机日渐成熟。签定新协定的主体应是朝、韩、美、中四方。达成新协定的主要障碍在于实现持久和平的途径,尤其是美国的立场与政策。只有从"停战机制"转向签订《和平协定》,建立和平机制,东北亚地区的和平与稳定才能得到保障。

Fighting the Korean War in pacifist Japan: Korean and Japanese leftist solidarity and American Cold War containment

Where does “pacifist” Japan fit within the history of the Korean War? Was Japan simply the beneficiary of the wartime boom – a case best exemplified by Japanese Prime Minister Yoshida Shigeru’s characterization of the Korean War as “a gift of the gods”? When North Korean troops crossed the thirty-eighth parallel and launched a full-scale attack against South Korea, the U.S. occupation in Japan quickly transformed the pacifist nation into the indispensable rear base of United Nations military intervention in the Korean War. The Japanese Communist Party and leftist groups organized by zainichi Koreans (Korean residents in Japan) launched an antiwar movement to stop Japan from producing and sending arms to UN forces in Korea. The U.S. occupation responded with determined efforts to contain every antiwar voice emerging from the streets of the pacifist country. By examining the political dynamics of zainichi Korean and Japanese leftist solidarity and U.S. countermeasures, this article shows how the Korean War was fought in pacifist Japan. It also illuminates how the practice of Cold War containment was mutually linked on the ground between occupied Japan and South Korea.     

同盟关系变化对韩朝关系的影响

朝鲜半岛分裂伊始,南北双方就陷入了安全困境,不得不追求一种依存性的安全保障,即借助与大国结盟来取得军事优势。在有关朝鲜半岛几乎所有重大事件中都有美国的参与,形成美日支持韩国、中苏支持朝鲜的二元对立格局。纵观朝鲜半岛南北关系的发展,同盟的作用力,既可以有力地促进半岛的和平进程,也可以阻碍、中断半岛的和平进程,甚至让半岛继续长期处于分裂的对峙状态。     

Sexual offending as a public health problem: A north american perspective

Abstract

This paper argues that we should cease treating sexual offending as a problem best dealt with by psychology, medicine, or law. Sexual offending, like mental illness, alcoholism, or drug addiction, is a public health problem, one that is everyone's business. The paper first considers the traditional levels of prevention in public health: primary, secondary, and tertiary. The argument is made that most of our efforts have been directed to the tertiary level where they are least likely to be effective. Applications of the general public health model to sexual violence are considered. These include epidemiology, risk factor research, program evaluation, and dissemination of information on what works. Various methods for informing and educating the public about sexual violence are proposed. The paper concludes with suggestions on how harm can be minimised through the use of a public health approach.

韩国国家形象的变迁及其启示

得益于本国的高速发展和积极的对外传播,韩国的国家形象在近30年的时间里实现了质的飞跃：从一个经济落后、军人专制、南北对峙的形象,转变为以经济发达、政治民主、南北和解、活力动感等为主要内容的新形象。韩国经验的启示在于：一,国家形象提升的基础是国力的提升,对外传播工作的实质是把这一情况适时准确地告知传播对象;二,国家形象的定位要与国家的发展战略方向一致,由适当的机构统筹协调国家形象建设工作,切实贯彻国家的发展战略和与此相辅相成的国家形象战略;三,对外传播要以传播对象为本,充分考虑外国人的真实感受,针对传播对象的特性选择最有效的沟通方式;四,充分发挥跨国企业在国家形象建设中的积极作用。     

《朝鲜解语花史》辨误二则

文对《朝鲜解语花史》中收录的襄阳妓和史凤姬两位妓女诗人究竟是朝鲜时代妓女还是唐朝妓女进行了辨析，并引用中国古文献，证明襄阳妓的《送别》实为唐朝襄阳妓的《送武补阙》，史凤姬的《咏神鸡枕》实为唐朝妓女史凤七首同一主题系列诗中的一首，为辨认韩国妓女文学作品真伪作出了贡献。     

Gender Wage Work and Development in North East Brazil

The last three decades have witnessed a major expansion of export agriculture in Latin America and the emergence of largely feminised labour forces. Research has illustrated how farms purposefully construct gendered divisions of labour and how women often experience worse pay and conditions than men. However, it is also important to consider how and why gender divisions of labour change. This article does so by examining export grape production in North East Brazil. It locates farms' practices of gendering work within a three-pronged context of rising buyer requirements, changes in labour supply and the influence of rural trade unions.
