Face Off: The Ironic,The Irenic and the Face Between

The formation of a school, whether feminist, critical, Marxist or other involves the establishment of a doctrine – literally a teaching – and a group of students or followers – the disciples who form the discipline. No doctrine without disciples has been the history of the schools and the formative principle of academic movements. They exist in the end to convert their students, old to young, male to female, female to male, or female to female, or any other possible combination of orientations. And conversion implies orthodoxy, institutionalization and hierarchy or at least a relation to hieros and hierarchy. This paper examines these themes in terms of the specific example of feminist legal studies and a curious recent discursive event, a polemical exchange on the identity of the movement, the face of feminist legal studies, as viewed through a eulogy and a challenge to that praise. Thanks to Richard Collier, Margaret Davies, Margaret Halliwell, Elena Loizidou, Desmond Manderson, Ngaire Naffine for correspondence, for relevant discussions, and candid responses. Especial thanks to Thanos Zartaloudis for a peculiarly detailed and hospitable reading, offered at a time when it would have been much easier, both just and more appropriate for him to say very little, almost nothing. And emotive thanks as well to Linda Mills for her customary frankness and finely honed attention.     

Racial Solidarity and Political Participation

Studies conducted in the 1960s and 1970s generally confirmed that racial group solidarity boosted rates of participation among African Americans. But since the 1980s, research has tended to conclude that the effect of solidarity on voter turnout among blacks and other minorities has moderated if not faded entirely. We hypothesize that part of this observed decline is explained by a dilution of measures of group solidarity in recent studies. We argue that a fair test of racial solidarity requires using a comprehensive measure that incorporates both psychological “identification” and the ideological beliefs that comprise “consciousness.” Moreover, we hypothesize that the effects of solidarity, will vary across forms of participation and be greatest on political activities that require group coordination. Our re-analysis of the 1984 NBES using separate measures of identification and consciousness indicates that the more narrowly circumscribed measures of these concepts used in recent studies are likely to have underestimated its influence on political participation. We show that racial identification and consciousness had a modest effect on voting turnout in 1984, but a significant influence on participation in several traditional campaign activities, petitioning government officials, and especially participation in protests and boycotts.     

论党的三代领导对社会主义文化特征的认识

马克思、恩格斯、列宁和斯大林对社会主义制度特征进行了预测和探索,但他们没有形成对社会主义文化特征的系统认识。中国共产党的三代中央领导核心对社会主义文化建设进行了不懈的探索。有中国特色社会主义文化纲领的提出,是对社会主义本质特征认识的一个质的飞跃,是对科学社会主义理论的丰富和重大发展。邓小平是这一理论贡献的完成者。

涉外群体性事件的预防与处置

涉外群体性事件具有涉外性、政治性、敏感性和复杂性等特点。当前,涉外群体性事件呈数量增多、地域更广、领域更宽、突发性更强、受操纵性更高的发展趋势。在防范和处置涉外群体性事件的过程中,应该考虑坚持三个原则,既维护主权与维护稳定相结合的原则、预警防范与果断处置相结合的原则、讲究策略与依法查处相结合的原则;应该把握三个重点:一是防止因对外国人的管理不到位,出现失控、漏管;二是防止因执法不到位,出现矛盾激化和被人操纵、利用;三是防止因预案准备不到位,出现事态严重化和失控。
