边缘文化主流化中的妇女--明清时期的云南"列女群"

地处西南边疆的云南,在中国历史上一直被视为"蛮夷"之地和文化的边缘地区,明代以来在国家政治进一步一体化的过程中,边缘的云南文化在汉文化的改造、重构下被整合进文化主流中。作为云南地方文化承载者的妇女人群也成为这场文化改造运动的重点塑造对象,其结果,就是在明清云南地方志书中出现了包括节妇、节孝妇、贞女、烈女、慈母在内的数以万计的"列女群"。这一特殊社会人群在云南历史中的存在,被赋予了深远的文化意义。

Are European Elections Second-Order Elections for Everyone?

Second-order election (SOE) theory has been used to explain voting behaviour in European elections. Voters believe that less is at stake in some elections and some voters hence tend to cast a protest vote. However, most studies on the topic have focused on the demand side of SOEs – i.e. on the voters – and have ignored or only partially tackled the supply side – i.e. the strategic behaviour of parties – and excluded small and marginal parties (SMPs). However, SMPs may have greater incentive to seriously compete in SOEs. The 2019 European Parliament elections in Germany were particularly interesting to SMPs as there was no voting threshold, thereby increasing the chances of SMPs. To capture whether SMPs view European elections as first-order elections and therefore expend more resources than parliamentary parties on these elections, I analysed campaign expenditures and manifestos. Results indicate that SMPs act within a rational actor framework, though not unequivocally.
