Deconstructing the Boundaries: Gender and Genre in Mary Wollstonecraft’s Letters Written During a Short Residence in Sweden,Norway and Denmark

ABSTRACT

In her 1796 travelogue, Wollstonecraft combines the main elements of many different genres, blending together the physical-geographical account of the countries she was visiting with her own feelings, producing a Romantic conception of the human being overwhelmed by and subsumed into the natural elements. The journey through the Scandinavian countries turns out to be more than a business travel. It takes the shape of an inner route, a rediscovery of herself and of her experiences, including motherhood. The ability to dismantle the boundaries of the travel writing genre in such an innovative way is the same ability she shows when subverting the literary gender stereotypes that saw women marginalized inside the domestic sphere. What emerges from this extraordinary epistolary collection is a woman capable of the greatest sentimentality and, at the same time, of the smartest rationality, an active woman who does not deny her femininity but who strongly refuses the passivity society has always attributed to the female.     

利玛窦儒学观的困境与张力

从记载文本来看,利玛窦从自身对宗教的体会出发,曾经把儒家列为中国的三种宗教之一。随着利玛窦本人对儒家认识的进一步加深,同时为了更好地在中国传教,利玛窦做出了儒家非宗教的判断,这种判断在西方社会中产生了重要影响,虽然当时并没有在中国国内引起较大的关注,但是从一个较长范围来说,仍然具有学术史的意义。利玛窦敏锐地认识到儒学发展的阶段性,肯定"先儒",批判"后儒",但是没有看到中国儒学发展的连续系,也没有看到中国儒学发展断裂性与连续性之间的关系,体现了利玛窦儒学观的内在张力。     

How Migration Experience Affects the Acceptance and Active Support of Refugees? Philanthropy and Paid Work of Hungarian Migrants in the German Immigrant Service

Abstract

The paper examines migration experience and migrant solidarity within a differential migration system. The paper unfolds how Hungarians living in Germany have become involved in refugee support (either in form of voluntary or paid work), and how their engagement relates to their own experience of migration. Concerning applied methods the paper is based on a quantitative online survey and qualitative interviews.     

Teaching Party Systems: A Culinary Demonstration

Abstract

Duverger’s Law—the principle that first-past-the-post systems tend to promote two major political parties while proportional representation systems tend to promote multipartism—is a commonly taught topic in introductory and some upper-level political science courses across subfields. However, it also contains concepts that are difficult for undergraduate students to grasp, particularly those who are unfamiliar with other electoral systems. In partial response to these concerns, this article introduces a memorable in-class demonstration that utilizes food items to illustrate the logic behind Duverger’s Law. The demonstration serves as a flexible blend between lecture-oriented and active learning techniques, and can be adapted to teach other topics—such as directional and proximity models of voting, the Median Voter Theorem, and other topics in rational choice theory. Preliminary evidence presented suggests that students enjoy the demonstration, remember the concepts, and perform better on assessments related to the topic. The article concludes by challenging political science educators to develop and share more demonstration-type activities, which are commonly used in STEM and other fields.

Averted targeted school killings from 1900-2016

Mass shootings, particularly those that occur on school grounds, often generate intense political debate. Following the 2018 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglass High School, questions arose on how to prevent these tragedies. Typically, the response generated from these questions revolves around mental illness, bullying prevention, and gun control. Unfortunately, the views on these topics, especially gun control, are often rooted in a strong belief system which is unwavering. Resultantly, the debate on how to avert these incidents often stops at the debate phase. This study sought to better understand how these events can be prevented by examining targeted school killings from 1900–2016 in which the suspect was stopped before the attack. The analysis revealed that the majority of attacks were prevented by other students reporting the threat of an impending attack to school and law enforcement authorities.     

犯罪故意“要素分析”模式的澄清与适用  ——兼论陪审员对行为规范属性的平行评价

适用要素分析模式，解决风险社会刑事立法的行为本位思想与我国传统故意理论的结果本位导向之间的矛盾，不仅具备相较于其他故意理论构型的比较优势，更加契合我国人民陪审员制度改革的话语背景。但目前国内学界围绕要素分析模式的研究存在诸多误读，亟待澄清。应当借鉴要素分析模式的实质内核，将我国刑法总则与分则中的两类故意分别指代为一般故意和特别故意。应当将一般故意解构为对行为的认识与对抽象结果的意志。应当将特别故意解构为对实质要素的正向犯意认定和对于随附情状的负向犯意认定。应当坚持由人民陪审员对实质要素中的规范要素进行评价，坚持对于随附情状进行认识可能性的事后客观判断。     

习近平法治思想中涉外法治话语生成与实践逻辑——以“一带一路”倡议为视角

在习近平法治思想中,坚持统筹推进国内法治与涉外法治已成为当前指导中国开展涉外法治工作的重要指针和发展方向。而"一带一路"建设正是这一话语生成的重要实践场所。从其发展演变来看,"一带一路"涉外法治实践不仅体现了习近平法治思想中的规则意识、安全意识以及公平公正意识,而且亦形成了反制、竞争与合作的具体实践路径。更为重要的是,在全球治理上,人类命运共同体、共商共建共享原则都揭示出新的国际法命题。因此,未来"一带一路"涉外法治实践应紧密围绕习近平法治思想,加快涉外法治战略布局,形成强有力的涉外法治保障体系,以期促进"一带一路"高质量发展,重塑国际法治新秩序。     

Chrystal Macmillan,Scottish campaigner for women’s equality through law reform

ABSTRACT

This article will explore the work of Chrystal Macmillan, who used her knowledge of the law to further the cause of women’s equality through her committee work with several voluntary organisations, and her presentations to the British Government, the League of Nations, and the International Labour Office. Using archival material, both from committee minutes and family anecdotes, we will show the substantial amount of voluntary work undertaken by Chrystal Macmillan both before and after she became a practising lawyer in 1924. The article will also try to capture something of the woman’s character through the comments of her friends and colleagues.     

王星拱的美学——研究艺术的科学

在中国现当代美学形态中，王星拱可算独特的一支。梁启超、蔡元培、王国维属于人文色彩比较重的一支；朱光潜、宗白华属于人文和科学结合的形态；王星拱则属于坚定的科学派。并且是这派美学的始作俑者，可惜这派美学的贡献至今学术界研究很不够。王星拱认为美学就是研究艺术的科学；美严格地限定在感性和情感范围，因此，他讲的美学是拿科学的态度研究美感。从王星拱详加讨论的这些客观性的材料（雄健、阔大、悠久、众多、流动、秩序、连轴关系）来看，他对美的看法应该属于主客体统一的观点，他既肯定这些“外在客体”作为审美材料的先决条件，又主张人的主观对材料的加工的结果——艺术=美。王星拱的美学思想太局限于经验领域，他虽然也讲美感需上升到理性层面。但他讲的“理性”是在经验范围内的。王星拱美学突出了逻辑和科学，而对精神科学的形而上有所忽略。
