Three Historical Perspectives on Trump,the Presidency,and American Populism

This article attempts to set up a conversation between certain aspects of the considerable scholarship on rhetoric and populist identity, on the one hand, and the historical perspectives on American populism provided by Michael Kazin; Christopher Lasch and a recent set of studies of the history of presidential rhetoric. It ends with tentative reflections on the effects of these historical perspectives for contemporary discussions.     

闽东南沿海地区绑架犯罪活动的发展及其国际化趋势

绑架案件近五年来在闽东南沿海地区大量频繁地发生,成为世纪末对闽东南沿海地区社会治安危害最为严重的罪种之一.九十年代中期,绑架犯罪活动呈爆炸式地在闽东南沿海地区蔓延,案件增幅之快出乎有关部门意料.与此同时,偷越国(边)境犯罪案件也急剧上各,吸毒人数大量增加,民间债务纠纷矛盾加剧,这些都成为绑架犯罪活动的推波助澜的因素.绑架案件的大量出现,严重威胁闽东南沿海地区社会治安和投资环境.1998年以来,绑架犯罪活动得到控制.但2000年以来,部分沿海地区偷越国(边)境活动又大幅反弹,第二次偷越国(边)境高峰正在形成,跨国绑架活动可能再次升温.由于绑架案件尤其是跨国绑架案的受害人报案率低,实际绑架犯罪情况可能更为严重,因此,我国有关部门以及有关国家之间,应加强合作,采取有力措施,预防绑架犯罪活动的进一步蔓延.     

多发性街面犯罪新动向及其因应策略

以抢劫、抢夺、盗窃、扒窃、拎包、诈骗等为内容的多发性街面犯罪,近年来呈现高发势头,特别是犯罪主体与波及区域扩大以及危害程度加深动向,令人触目惊心,已经构成城市社会和谐的严重威胁。导致街面犯罪高发的因素是多方面的,既有社会转型期城乡、贫富差距等一些本源性问题促使,也有法律制约和警务管理等外在因素影响。因此,重视民生、完善制度、发展经济、充分就业、健全社会保障是根本的解决办法,而健全法律体系、强化警务防范与打击力度,则可以压缩街面犯罪空间,促使不法分子放弃犯罪并走向合法道路。     

路向与方法: 北美汉学家论孔子说《诗》

Late in the early time of the 20th century, Confucius’ literary thoughts aroused scholarly attention in the English world. Since the 1970s, two academic trends has emerged in North American sinology about Confucius’ critique on the Book of Poetry. These research is done along two directions: one on Confucius’ poetic points of view; secondly, the other on the relations between Confucius’ thinking mode and his literary thoughts. In sinologists’ studies of Confucius’ literary thoughts, varied research methods are adopted, including the shift of focus between the pragmatic and the lyrical; multi-phase close reading, method of double proof,approach of structuralism, and the post-modernist perspective.     

经济全球化背景下金融行政规制的新对策

全球化作为一种客观事实和发展趋势,越来越深刻地影响着世界各国的历史进程,在给人类带来福祉的同时,也将危机带至人们面前.美国次贷危机至今,全球经济仍在波动中缓步前行.这场来势汹涌的经济危机告诉人们,减少政府对经济社会干预为主要经济政策目标的新自由主义经济政策,在金融结构多元化、金融产品创新化的国际金融市场面前显得准备不足.本文旨在研究经济全球化背景下金融行政规制的新对策,使之在防范泡沫性风险的同时能够有助于一国金融体系的持续稳健发展.     

全球区域经济一体化新趋势与中国的FTA策略选择

改革官僚制:政府治理模式的新趋势

现代官僚制兴起于十七八世纪.官僚制是整合国家权力的重要工具.欧洲、非欧民族国家的兴起都与在国内实行科层制的实践相关.但是,随着时代的变迁,官僚制难以适应已经变化了的政治、经济和技术环境.改革官僚制已成为发达国家行政改革的重要内容.这种政府治理模式的变迁,对发展中国家的政治改革有着重要的参考价值.

日本青少年违法犯罪的动向

要了解日本青少年犯罪的动向,首先要了解日本青少年犯罪的社会背景。要正确地分析日本青少年犯罪的现象主要有两种方法:一是从量的观点上观察少年犯的动向;二是从质的观点上对少年犯的资质、家庭关系的变化和安置困难等进行观察。同时还要分析日本市民对青少年犯罪的认识;分析对青少年犯罪的报告和青少年所处的社会背景才能更好地了解和掌握日本青少年犯罪的动向。     

AN ASSESSMENT OF RECENT TRENDS IN GIRLS' VIOLENCE USING DIVERSE LONGITUDINAL SOURCES: IS THE GENDER GAP CLOSING?

Applying Dickey-Fuller time series techniques in tandem with intuitive plot-displays, we examine recent trends in girls' violence and the gender gap as reported in four major sources of longitudinal data on youth violence. These sources are arrest statistics of the Uniform Crime Reports, victimization data of the National Crime Victimization Survey (where the victim identifies sex of offender) and self-reported violent behavior of Monitoring the Future and National Youth Risk Behavior Survey. We find that the rise in girls' violence over the past one to two decades as counted in police arrest data from the Uniform Crime Reports is not borne out in unofficial longitudinal sources. Several net-widening policy shifts have apparently escalated girls' arrest-proneness: first, stretching definitions of violence to include more minor incidents that girls in relative terms are more likely to commit; second, increased policing of violence between intimates and in private settings (for example, home, school) where girls' violence is more widespread; and, third, less tolerant family and societal attitudes toward juvenile females. These developments reflect both a growing intolerance of violence in the law and among the citizenry and an expanded application of preventive punishment and risk management strategies that emphasize early identification and enhanced formal control of problem individuals or groups, particularly problem youth.
