少数民族农村社区文化生活与精神文明建设 --以云南罗平多依村布依族调查为例

通过对云南罗平县多依村布依族的调查发现,随着经济与社会的发展,社区文化对区域人群的影响作用和协调功能日益凸现,然而,受到经济发展相对滞后、教育水平偏低、信息渠道单一等因素制约,目前的农村社区文化不能适应村民不断提高的精神文化需求.鉴于此,建议在发展农村经济的基础上,强化基层组织的引导职责,以传统的农村家庭功能单位为依托,努力探索有地区特色的社区文化发展模式.

关于村民委员会职能问题的调查与研究

村民委员会是村民自治的主要载体 ,其职能主要是代表村民实行自治 ,其次是协助乡镇政府开展行政工作 ,自治职能应远较协助行政职能重要。但在不少农村地区 ,村民委员会的职能重心在很大程度上偏移了 ,协助行政的职能过度膨胀 ,而自治职能却被忽视 ,村民自治成了有名无实的空架子。村民委员会与乡镇政府的关系没有理顺 ,这是问题的症结所在。必须打破传统角色影响 ,改革现实体制 ,才能使村民委员会成为真正的自治组织。

Bush: The Sequel

This article examines the likely foreign policy initiatives of the U.S. under the leadership of George W. Bush. The new president has outlined a fairly thorough critique of America's international behavior in the 1990s. Because a leader's public statements arguably serve to persuade various audiences and to build support for policy change, the article takes Bush's words quite seriously—along with those spoken or written by his closest foreign affairs advisors. Bush intends to abandon the so-called Clinton Doctrine and deploy national missile defenses. He is critical of American policies toward China and Russia, but has not presented bold new initiatives toward those powers. Under the rubric of "compassionate conservatism," Bush may alter U.S. relations toward the Global South in some interesting ways. The president and his advisors often purport to be realists, but the article demonstrates that their own words belie this claim as they often justify policies based on ideals rather than the pursuit of power.

The political economy of ‘flex trees’: a preliminary analysis

With the rise of ‘bioeconomy’, trees are receiving increasing attention. This contribution conducts a preliminary analysis of the trajectories and the main drivers of change in the rise of new, flexible and multiple uses of trees. It assesses the political dimensions involved in this transformation, which is simultaneously ongoing, anticipated and imagined. Notes are offered on the issues to be considered when the flex-crop framework is operationalized to include the study of trees, and additional conceptualizations that help in analyzing the political economy of tree uses are provided. Areas needing further empirical study are identified and a preliminary research agenda is suggested. The flexible and multiple use of trees and tree-derived commodities is having a large impact on power relations in the global political economy of forestry and the forest industry, the asymmetry of which is based on who is best able to flex or de-multiply, thereby controlling commodity webs and processing technology. It is argued that while flexing seems to increase diversity, in practice it typically increases this only for the processing industry; the converse occurs in terms of the unification of the productive base into monocultures. However, these two processes go hand in hand, and illustrate how flexing is a deeply capitalist process.
