Political theory in historical context. Reflections on Democratic Justice and the Social Contract by Albert Weale

In Democratic Justice and the Social Contract, Weale defends a contractarian theory of social justice following what he calls the ‘empirical method’, which consists in grounding ethics and politics on the observation of concrete examples of social contracts, rather than abstract speculations. In this paper, I will make three critical remarks. First, the empirical method is open to the same objections usually raised against more abstract approaches to social contract theory: by an appropriate choice of the starting point, one can justify any ethical or political position. Second, Weale’s focus on the societies that were successful in managing common pool resources appears arbitrary: other social organizations (e.g. hunters and gatherers societies) would be a more obvious choice. Finally, in following the empirical method, philosophers must be willing to import into ethics and politics the same problems of interpretation one encounters in theoretical social sciences. As an example, I will show that Weale’s position on the welfare state depends on the interpretation he gives of some practices observed in the societies he chooses as models. Different interpretations of the same practices would induce Weale to revise his positions.     

Where you lead we will follow: a longitudinal study of strategic political communication in election campaigning

The ways in which election campaigns are planned, organized, and conducted have changed considerably during recent decades, and political parties constantly employ new ideas and practices in order to communicate as strategically and effectively as possible. The concept of strategic political communication refers to an organization's purposeful management of information and communication to achieve certain political goals. In this article, we focus on the role of the individual political party in developing election campaigning. The empirical material covers the 2002, 2006, and 2010 Swedish national election campaigns and illustrates how political parties lead and follow each other in the development of strategic political communication. By exploring party agency, this article contributes to the understanding of how ideas and practices of strategic political communication emerge and develop over time in election campaigning.

基于《中华人民共和国药典》优化丹参中33种禁用农药残留物检测的前处理方法

目的 以丹参为研究对象,比较2020年版《中华人民共和国药典》中3类前处理方法对33种禁用农药残留物回收率的影响,进一步优化快速样品处理法(quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe, QuEChERS)。方法 分别从基质效应和回收率方面比较《中华人民共和国药典》3类前处理方法,并对QuEChERS法进行研究与优化,样品加水后由1%醋酸-乙腈提取,依次加入QuEChERS盐包与QuEChERS净化管盐析净化,提取液经浓缩后分别加入水和内标磷酸三苯酯,结合液相色谱-串联质谱法和气相色谱-串联质谱法以添加水平为定量限浓度水平测定样品的回收率和RSD。结果 采用《中华人民共和国药典》前处理方法时,丹参中33种禁用农药(54个单体)在添加水平为定量限浓度水平时,部分农药回收率较低;优化QuEChERS法后,丹参中33种禁用农药(54个单体)在一定浓度下,线性关系良好,r均大于0.990,其回收率为64.43%～127.35%时,RSD均<15%;199批饮片和60批药材中共检出2种农药,甲拌磷检出率为3.86%,克百威检出率为1.93%,...
