Becoming widowed

This article discusses the characteristics of widowhood in early 19th-century Austria, focusing on the sources of economic support. Higher proportions of the widowed population were found in inmate than in tenant households, and more women than men were widowed. Widows were more likely to live on their own than adults in general were, indicating that many widows could support their households from their own resources. For 40% of the widows, however, familial support was available in the form of a coresident extended household. Tenant households with greater resources at their disposal were better able to offer this form of support than inmate households. Less than 1% of tenant widows lived alone. Longitudinal data were analyzed to determine the relative frequency with which tenant and inmate widows succeeded their late husbands as household heads, remarried, or retired to become the mothers or mothers-in-law of the new household heads.     

Adult brothers and juvenile uncles: Generations and age differences in families at the end of the Middle Ages

In medieval families, dependent relationships did not fall exclusively within the context of parental ties. For various reasons, children sometimes grew up with a much older brother or sister or with uncles or aunts younger than themselves. The article examines these relationships in the household at the end of Middle Ages using fiscal documents and accounts of miracles. The questions are what sort of relationships existed when age and generation did not coincide, how authority was exercised, how dependent relationships should be analyzed, and how autonomy was acquired. These questions can place avuncular and fraternal relationships in a new and different light.     

黄河三角洲高效生态经济区产业结构与劳动方就业结构协同优化研究

通过对1995-2010年滨州市的时间序列数据采用动态统计与协整模型分析,测算了该区域产业结构与劳动力就业结构的协同程度。研究表明,该区域的产业结构调整与从业人员总数,以及与第三产业从业人数变动之间存在着长期稳定关系;地区从业人员总数只是产业结构转换的单向格兰杰原因,而产业结构转换与第三产业从业人数之间互为格兰杰原因,可以实现二者的协同优化。相对于传统的扩大就业政策而言,加快第三产业发展更加有助于该区域的产业结构升级转换。     

中国共产党的组织结构与党内民主的关系

中国共产党的组织结构是党的各项工作顺利进行的组织基础,以党内民主带动人民民主是我国民主政治建设的重要步骤。中国共产党的组织机构与党内民主之间存在关联,党内民主对中国共产党组织结构提出了新的要求。     

结构性问题破解与社会管理创新——基于社会结构视角的分析

当代中国社会问题大多都源于结构性问题。结构性视角可以成为分析和破解中国社会问题的一个有益视角。社会结构性问题的破解．社会结构性矛盾的解决,要求创新社会管理思路。社会管理创新是我国社会发展进程中的深刻变革,也是经济社会发展到一定阶段、社会经历了结构性变迁之后的必然抉择。社会管理创新的基本路径是有序推进社会结构性改革,培育公民社会和社会组织,注重公共服务型政府建设,最终建构出以公正为基础的三维制衡的现代社会结构。     

群体性事件发生原因研究的再审视——层次分析方法的引入与应用

层次分析方法就是将导致某一事件发生的原因进行分层。将层次分析方法应用到群体性事件发生的原因研究中,群体性事件发生的原因可分为结构、体制机制和个人三个层次。通过比较三个不同层次上变量的重要性,结构层次上的变量最为根本和重要,体制机制层次上的变量次之,个人层次上的变量可视为常数。加强对结构和体制机制层次上的变量的研究,有助于深入探究群体性事件发生的深层次原因。     

Positive Youth Development Among African American Adolescents: Examining Single Parents as a Factor

Over the past few decades researchers have begun to examine the importance of understanding positive youth development and the many contexts in which youth find themselves. The social contexts in which adolescent development occurs are varied and complex, particularly the development among African American youth. African American youth are faced with a number of challenges including living in single-parent homes, high teen pregnancy rates, and poor neighborhoods, yet many of these youth continue to thrive. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between family structure (single-parenting) and adolescent outcomes such as educational aspirations and sexual activity among African American adolescent youth aged 12–17. Approximately 462 African American youth were surveyed. A number of positive results emerged; for instance, there was a negative correlation between family structure and educational aspirations. The number of parents in the home did not interfere with youth wanting to complete high school and go on to college (r = ? .218, r² = .04, p < .05). The results also showed that as educational aspirations increased, the number of sexual partners decreased (r = ? .141, meaning that the more adolescents reported a desire to complete high school, they were less likely to report having sexual intercourse. These positive results should be promoted among African American youth so that those faced with these challenges will note that others have overcome and accomplished their goals. In this population educational aspirations were important. Limitations and future research are discussed.     

证据制度的调整对我国侦查制度的影响——以新《刑事诉讼法》为视阈

新《刑事诉讼法》对证据制度进行了较大幅度的修改。证据裁判理念正深入人心．侦查人员应强化证据意识、更新侦查理念。非法证据排除规则已经确立,取证行为规范化将成为关注的焦点。证据的概念、种类和范围的调整,行政证据的合法化,以及立法对过去侦查实践的肯定,使得侦查办案模式惯性发展不可避免：明文规定侦查人员有出庭作证的义务,对侦查人员的素质提出了新挑战;不自证其罪和如实供述的矛盾并存,侦查机关需要尊重和顺应法律价值变化的潮流。切实保障人权。     

立体化社会治安防控体系运作模式探究

以县级为单元完善立体化社会治安防控体系建设是一项综合性的社会公共安全管理系统工程,这一体系运作模式的架构,应集打击、防范、管理、控制等治安管理诸层面,其体系运作既要作为政府工程和民生工程,又要有社会化的整体配套机制。重点要突出系统化整合、智能化升级、实战化应用、社会化建设,全面构建以“服务管理人本化、警务运作集约化、警务执法规范化、警务手段科技化、警务工作社会化、警队管理科学化”为主的治安防控体系运作模式。
