Rethinking Conflict: Perspectives from the Insight Approach

In this article, the authors present the “insight approach” to conflict as an analytical and methodological framework that addresses the dynamic interactions between conflicting parties. According to the insight approach, conflict is relational, dynamic, and adaptive, generated from the responsive interpretive frameworks that parties use to construct meaning. Conflict arises as a result of parties' experience of what insight theorists call “threat‐to‐cares,” which generates defend–attack patterns of interaction between them. The authors suggest that rethinking the nature of conflict so that it is seen as an interaction embedded in meaning making enables conflict interveners to help parties gain insight into, and articulate, the values that are being generated, advanced, threatened, and realigned within the complex interactions that define us as social beings. In doing so, parties develop abilities to generate new patterns and solutions that can limit and even eliminate the experiences of threat that generate conflict between them.     

近期美国升高西太平洋紧张局势的战略意图及其影响

随着美国全球战略重心加速东移,特别是在近期美国从伊拉克撤军与从阿富汗准备抽身而退之时,美国在亚太地区频频举行军事演习,尤其是美借天安舰之机,趁势强化美韩与美日同盟,并高调介入南海争端,与东南亚伙伴强化军事互动,积极谋求南海争端的国际化。美国正沿太平洋,从东北亚至东南亚一线,事实上形成了针对中国的战略围堵。美国近期升高西太平洋紧张局势的一系列举动并不是偶然的,而是冷战后美国全球战略重心从大西洋向太平洋转移的重要组成部分。奥巴马加速重返亚太的战略调整将对中国实施远海战略与拓展战略纵深以及推行和谐周边的外交战略产生冲击。     

论船舶碰撞损害赔偿中的责任比例认定

在分析、比较英美法系、大陆法系因果关系理论的基础上,提出在船舶碰撞损害赔偿责任比例认定过程中,可采用＂两分法＂,即首先运用＂相当因果关系理论＂认定事实上的因果关系,即认定船舶从相遇到碰撞发生的整个过程中的过失行为对碰撞事故发生及碰撞损害后果的作用力的大小;然后采用＂直接结果理论＂和＂可预见理论＂认定船舶过失行为与损害后果之间的法律上的因果关系,而法律推定因果关系方法则不应当适用。     

能源变革中的首都西南区域经济发展与战略选择

石油、天然气等非再生能源供给约束对经济发展的制约,使人类开始探索第三次能源变革。伴随每次能源结构变革是现代产业发展的巨大变化,后者又进一步推动经济社会发展。北京致力于世界城市建设,其经济社会发展要形成国际影响力与控制力,其顺应能源发展趋势的合理产业布局至关重要,而首都西南区域目前正处于传统产业退出、接续产业尚未形成时期,如果利用后发优势,建立国家战略性新兴能源产业基地,将可能实现区域经济的跨越式发展。     

犯罪学问题清单（一）——有关犯罪学批判的思考

对新中国犯罪学研究中存在争议的、理论的和学术的问题做出简要的梳理是十分必要的。这里仅提出”犯罪学的批判性”和”价值涉入”两个问题并加以讨论。前一个问题作为犯罪学的特质也成为”犯罪学批判”专栏的点题之笔。批判性的缺失与否直接关系到犯罪学能否发挥其正常的学术功能。后一个问题也是犯罪学这种涉及社会黑暗面的学科难以回避的一个问题。价值涉入在中国特殊的文化环境中具有特殊的表现形式,值得认真加以辨析。

完善国家扶贫战略和政策体系的宏观思考

十七届三中全会和五中全会都对＂完善国家扶贫战略和政策体系＂提出了明确要求。国家扶贫包括政府扶贫（政府扶贫机构扶贫和政府所属各部门扶贫）和社会扶贫（社会非政府组织扶贫和财富拥有者扶贫）。＂完善国家扶贫战略和政策体系＂要将政府扶贫和社会扶贫统一起来。战略目标：缩小发展差距,促进社会和谐;战略重点：不断提高扶贫对象的自我发展能力;战略措施：构建＂大扶贫＂格局;政策体系：政府的职能责任、民营组织的社会责任和全社会志愿精神的统一;特殊政策：加大对特殊地区的扶持力度。     

Psychological adjustment in a forensic sample: relationship with approach- and avoidance-coping typologies

Most studies that relate coping strategies with psychological symptoms usually consider a single coping dimension. This means that interpretation of the results is unclear and only partially true as subjects activate different types of coping strategies simultaneously when faced with a stressor. The objective of the present study is to analyze the relationships between coping and psychopathology in young inmates, taking into account the number of approach and avoidance answers simultaneously. The results show that the inmates with above-average scores in avoidance coping and below average in those of approach (coping responses inventory--adult form, [CRI-A]) show higher symptomatology (MMPI-2) than the inmates who obtain above-average scores in both avoidance and approach strategies. It can be deduced that it is not the high use of avoidance coping that is related to psychopathology, but rather the combined use of many avoidance strategies and few approach strategies. The convenience of jointly taking into account both types of coping is discussed.
