Attitudes and Family Violence: Linking Intergenerational and Cultural Theories

Drawing on intergenerational transmission and cultural (attitudinal) theories, this study examines the extent to which attitudes help explain (1) the relationship between experiencing violence while growing up and subsequent violence against one amp apose;s children and spouse, and(2) demographic differences in violence. Structural equation modeling techniques are used to examine data from a representative sample of the general population and a sample of ex-offenders. The findings indicate that experiencing violence while growing up is related to favorable attitudes towards violence against spouses. The experience of violence while growing up and attitudes are related to violence against both children and spouses. The relationship between experiencing violence while growing up and engaging in violence against spouses is mediated by attitudes. The results also suggest that men and nonwhites are more approving of violence towards spouses. However, attitudes do not account for demographic differences in violence against children and spouses.

不同细胞因子对水牛原始生殖细胞传代培养的影响

为探讨不同细胞因子对水牛原始生殖细胞(PGCs)传代培养的影响,将PGCs分别采用A、B、C、D、E、F和G共7种培养基进行培养,即A组:基础液+10 ng/mL白血病抑制因子(LIF)+10 ng/mL碱性成纤维细胞生长因子(bFGF);B组:基础液+20 ng/mL LIF+20 ng/mL bFGF;C组:基础液+20 ng/mLLIF+10 ng/mL bFGF;D组:基础液+20 ng/mL LIF;E组:基础液+20 ng/mL LIF+20 ng/mL bFGF+20ng/mL干细胞因子(SCF);F组:基础液+20 ng/mL LIF+40 ng/mL bFGF+40 ng/mL SCF;G组(对照组):基础液。将机械法分离的PGCs小集落接种到水牛胎儿成纤维细胞(BEF)饲养层上进行传代培养。结果,原代时,A、B、C、D、E和F组的克隆数目都显著高于对照组(P<0.05),其中E和F组的克隆数目显著高于A组(P<0.05),而与B、C、D组差异均不显著(P>0.05);1~8代时,B、C、D、E、F组的克隆数目显著高于A组(P<0.05);对照组传代数仅为2代,A组为5代,而B、C、D、E和F组均为8代以上。结果表明,在传代过程中,LIF起主要作用,20 ng/mL的LIF浓度可以满足水牛PGCs传代培养的需要。

未成年人重新犯罪实证研究

重新犯罪现象是困扰当今社会的主要犯罪问题,世界各国都高度重视对这一问题的防控与研究。未成年人作为重新犯罪中的一个极为重要的特殊群体,其犯罪的高发率、危害的长久性引起了社会普遍关注。这主要是因为其初犯时尚未成年,影响了他们实现正常的社会化,加大了再次犯罪的可能性。因此,从实证研究入手对未成年人重新犯罪的原因、特点进行科学分析,探究其重新犯罪规律,将有助于制定预防未成年人重新犯罪的刑事政策。     

Developing a peace course in police studies: how a culture of peace can enhance police legitimacy in a democratic society

This paper reflects my experiences developing a course within the Criminal Justice Technology Associates of Science degree program at Valencia College that fuses topics unique to peace and police studies. The key challenge in developing this course was in confronting the paradox of the police as instruments of both peace and conflict. In dealing with this paradox, students examine the role of the police in a democratic society and the authority of the police to use coercive force. Key topics covered in this course include defining peace, the police role in peace movements, the history, structure and strategies affecting the police, causes of violence, conflict analysis and conflict intervention, and ethical foundations for peace. In addition, this course examines occupational, organizational, institutional factors that contribute to the development of a unique police subculture that values crime fighting as its core responsibility and the impact of that orientation on police attitudes and behaviors toward the public. Throughout the course, students are challenged to envision a new paradigm for policing that emphasizes a culture of peace rather than a culture of conflict.     

Spectacular metamorphosis and an erotic device in the self-promotion campaign of a satellite television channel

In contrast to the increased popularity of gay and lesbian representations in the visual media of the early 2000s, the imagery of androgynous, inter-sex and transgender subjectivities, particularly in television commercials, is conspicuously limited. This article distinguishes three main categories of cinematic (mis)representation of gender transgression: the opportunistic lipstick, the “authentic” lipstick, and the fabulous lipstick. It examines this classification through the analysis of a unique, self-promotional television commercial broadcast by Yes+, an Israeli digital television channel whose visual contents often transgress the limits of mainstream television. Although the discussed advert conforms to the commercial imperative to attract Israeli audiences by all means, it is much more polysemic than one might notice at first glance. This study problematizes the sensational aspects of this “spectacular drama,” embraces its diverse erotic identifications and re-examines the price of queer visibility in the age of exploitive striptease culture.     

监狱文化：一个概念,三种理解

经过30余年发展,监狱文化已经成为中国特色监狱理论的重要组成部分。对于监狱文化的概念,理论界的理解并不一致。从理论发展看,监狱文化从提出之初就有着明确的价值取向,担负着参与改造罪犯的历史使命,因此,从监狱主流文化的角度来理解和建设监狱文化,是一条合理的路径。在当前的监狱文化建设和理论研究中,必须保持适当的＂边界感＂,这...     

监狱亚文化:概念、性质和范畴——以孙平教授的《监狱亚文化》为基点

监狱亚文化是与监狱主流文化相伴而生的文化,是一种存在于罪犯之间的隐性文化现象,是以低层次性为主体的庸俗文化。监狱亚文化是服刑罪犯适应监狱生活环境的生存文化,是罪犯创造的自我的"合理"文化。监狱亚文化是监狱与社会以罪犯为媒介信息交流的文化。
