略论百年来中国新闻业的地理观流变

清朝道咸同光时期舆地学的兴盛以及逐渐巩固的“九州之外更有九州”的世界地理观念 ,成为近代以降国人进行新闻实践的思想、文化资源。在地理观成为民族—国家观念重要成分的历史情境内 ,新闻业对中国地图业发展的推动和对具有舆地学传统的报道方式的实践 ,弘扬了时代精神。旅行通讯现象的背后是新闻记者的地理自觉 ,这一新闻体裁因此成为历史事件与地理文化的双重结构文本。处于传播全球化的当代 ,“国家地理”除其地缘政治意义外 ,已转化为颇有意味的传媒符号。地理学视野的新闻定义就是对受众未知的某一时间的地理空间活动和现象的描述。     

地理标志保护立法探论

由于国情的不同,各国的地理标志保护模式存在较大的差异,分别有专门法保护、商标法保护、专门法和商标法协调保护和反不正当竞争法保护四种。结合地理标志权属性质和我国国情,我国应采取商标法和专门法协调保护的立法模式,还应辅之以其他相关法律、特别是反不正当竞争法的保护。目前应注意提高地理标志保护立法层次以及处理地理标志商标权和原产地名称权的冲突问题。     

Separatism,coexistence and the landscape: Jews and Palestinian-Arabs in mandatory Haifa

Haifa was named a ‘mixed city’ by the British, who ruled Palestine from 1917 to 1948, in reference to the two national communities that inhabited the town. This definition was not neutral, and reflected the Brits aspirations to create national coexistence in Palestine among the diverse urban societies.

Reality was more complicated. The basic assumption of this paper follows the idea that the bi-national urban society of Mandatory Haifa developed into dual society, albeit with much overlapping in economic and civil matters, but takes it one step further: through highlighting changes in the urban landscape, I wish to argue dominance of the national European modern Hebrew society over the Palestinian-Arabs and the traditional and oriental Jewish societies and ideas alike. The changes in the urban landscape tell us the story of Zionism's growing influence and dominance, and the way the urban landscape was used to embody Zionism's modern European ethos. The neighbourhood's segregation, therefore, represents not only the effort to separate but to create a modern national ‘sense of place’ that influenced the city development.     

Housing and populism

Abstract

The recent success of populist candidates in the UK and Continental Europe has sparked a major debate between those who view populism as a reaction of the economically ‘left behind’ and those who view it as a cultural ‘backlash’ by groups with declining social status, pointing to stark divisions between urban and rural areas, core and periphery. This paper bridges the economic and values-based approaches to populism by arguing that the geography of wealth inequality offers a convincing explanation for the pattern of populist vote share. Drawing on fine-grained house price data in the UK and France, it is shown that the pattern of house prices ? even within small districts ? plays a major part in shaping support for Brexit and Marine Le Pen. The findings illustrate how longstanding variation in local wealth shapes the geography of discontent and drives populist appeal. Populism, the article concludes, is primarily a politics of place, and place is a product, in part, of the housing market.     

Determinants of voting results in Poland in the 2015 parliamentary elections. Analysis of spatial differences

This paper analyses spatial differences in the voting results in Poland in the 2015 parliamentary elections. Eleven clusters defining different support profiles are determined using the two most popular stopping rules. Parameters of the multinomial logit model are estimated and determinants of Polish communes' membership in specific clusters are identified. The results of the estimation indicate that economic, sociodemographic and location variables strongly determined the Poles' electoral preferences. However, historical and cultural factors turned out to be the most important determinants.

金融全球化的宏观经济稳定效应:理论与经验研究的再认识

本文旨在重新考察金融全球化对金融开放国家宏观经济稳定的真实作用.从理论上来说,金融全球化能通过一系列积极作用渠道降低金融开放国家内部宏观经济波动幅度.然而经验研究对此并没有达成一致性意见.文章认为理论与经验研究中出现的这种背离至少可以从两个方面进行解释.一是衡量金融全球化程度的变量具有内生性特点,从而导致实证分析结果产生偏差.而采用金融地理学分析范式能有效地克服这一缺陷,其经验研究与理论预测高度吻合.二是金融全球化对宏观经济的稳定作用更多是间接的和非线性的,金融全球化能否有效地降低宏观经济波动取决于国内金融发展水平、经济规模与结构以及冲击的来源或性质等诸多因素.     

历史地理学视野中的伏羲时代

运用历史地理学方法，通过对渭河上游新石器时代生产结构的分析和生态环境复原，认为本区前仰韶文化和仰韶文化早、中期，即距今8200-5500年，大致可以作为伏羲时代的界限。     

Swiss trade marks practice on misleading geographical indications

Legal context: Geographical references in trade marks are often used not onlyto refer to a certain territory of origin for certain goodsor services, but also to evoke desirable associations, imaginations,emotions, or ideas. The strict practice of the Swiss Trade MarksOffice often requires applicants to limit their list of goodsand services to certain countries. Key points: This abstract discusses the issues of geographically suggestivetrade marks in Switzerland, the strict test used by the SwissTrade Marks Office often requiring the applicant to limit thelist of goods to a specific country, the new stance the formerAppeals Board took in this regard, and how it was struck downby the Swiss Supreme Court, confirming the strict test of theTrade Marks Office. Finally, the article gives a solution onhow the issue of geographical references in trade marks shouldbe treated in order to match reality. Practical significance: It is important to know that the Swiss Trade Marks Office appliesa strict test when it comes to geographical references in trademarks. Usually, the applicant is required to limit the listof goods, although it is questionable whether the trade markreally suggests that the goods stem from a certain country.Foreign decisions are not binding for the Swiss Trade MarksOffice and in this regard usually disregarded.
