20世纪乡土小说的创作形态及其新变

从1920年开始,20世纪的中国乡土小说走过了80余年的历程.在不同文化思想的影响下,作家们秉承着不同的创作立场和创作方法,形成了乡土小说的多重创作形态.其中有鲁迅开创的文化批判型,茅盾为中坚的政治功利型,废名和沈从文倡导的文明怀旧型,还有赵树理为代表的乡村代言型.不同的创作形态体现出不同的审美追求和艺术特点,相互之间也构成了复杂的关系.90年代后,乡土小说创作形态呈现出新的发展和变异.     

程氏蠲痹汤的抗炎镇痛作用

目的 观察新安医家经典名方程氏蠲痹汤的抗炎镇痛作用。方法 利用热板法检测小鼠痛阈,采用二甲苯、角叉菜胶和弗氏完全佐剂分别复制小鼠耳肿胀模型、大鼠急性炎症和慢性炎症模型;观察程氏蠲痹汤对小鼠痛阈、耳肿胀率的影响及其对大鼠足肿胀率、屈关节疼痛的影响。结果 20.40、10.20 g/kg程氏蠲痹汤可显著提高小鼠的痛阈,降低二甲苯引起的耳肿胀度（P＜0.05）;且10.20、5.10 g/kg程氏蠲痹汤可显著缓解大鼠急性、慢性炎性足肿胀,减轻其屈关节疼痛（P＜0.05）。结论 程氏蠲痹汤对动物急性、慢性炎症具有较好的抗炎镇痛作用。     

被保险人故意犯罪致保险事故发生的法律后果--从公共政策的角度分析

保险领域中,公共政策要求“一个人不能从自己的犯罪中获利”,但须区分“一个人不能从他人的犯罪中获利”之情形。被保险人故意犯罪致保险事故发生,应视保险目的与功能而异其法律后果:若被保险人因预谋犯罪而直接谋求保险金,保险人当然免责;若被保险人在投保二年后故意犯罪致保险事故发生,则保险人虽不负给付保险金之责,但应退还保险单的现金价值;若故意犯罪并非保险事故发生的直接原因,保险人不能当然免责。     

论精神损害赔偿应纳入刑事附带民事诉讼范围

刑事附带民事诉讼的范围是否应包括精神损害赔偿,一直是一个争议颇多的问题,我们如果从现行法律规定的现实危害性、法理依据、法律依据及历史必然性等方面来论证刑事附带民事诉讼建立精神损害赔偿制度的重要性、紧迫性、必要性及可行性,则可能会取得一些有益的收获。     

俄罗斯卢布汇率安排的经济效应分析

How mass media attract political elites’ attention

Political agenda‐setting research has shown that policy makers are responsive vis‐à‐vis media priorities. However, the mechanisms behind this effect have remained understudied so far. In particular, agenda‐setting scholars have difficulties determining to what extent politicians react to media coverage purely because of the information it contains (information effect), and to what extent the effect is driven not by what the media say but by the fact that certain information is in the media (media channel effect), which is valued for its own sake – for instance, because media coverage is considered to be a reflection of public opinion. By means of a survey‐embedded experiment with Belgian, Canadian and Israeli political elites (N = 410), this study tests whether the mere fact that an issue is covered by the news media causes politicians to pay attention to this issue. It shows that a piece of information gets more attention from politicians when it comes via the media rather than an identical piece of information coming via a personal e‐mail. This effect occurs largely across the board: it is not dependent on individual politician characteristics.     

Symposium on “The nationalization of electoral politics: Frontiers of research”

This editorial introduces the theme of the symposium which addresses the most recent advances in the field of the nationalization of electoral politics. After a decade of an increasing number of contribution in this field, the symposium takes stock of the diversity of applications of nationalization studies, the progress in data collection, and its innovative methods in designs including it as both a dependent and independent variable and analyzing it both for legislative and presidential elections. The editorial reviews the growth and diversification of the literature over time and illustrates in what directions it has evolved mapping out an increasingly rich and complex theory. It links the articles of the symposium to this evolution of the literature and discusses their innovative character.     

Demonisation and electoral support for populist radical right parties: A temporary effect

Since the 1980s, Western Europe has experienced the surge of populist radical right parties. In an attempt to ward off these electoral newcomers, established parties have pursued strategies of disengagement, such as exclusion and de-legitimisation. This study examines the electoral effects of an excessive form of de-legitimisation, which we label ‘demonisation’. We estimate the effects of demonisation on electoral support for the Dutch Freedom Party (PVV) and its predecessor Groep Wilders. Time series analyses show that demonisation has a negative effect on electoral support, but only for Groep Wilders. Once the populist radical right party has made a successful entry into the party system, demonisation does not have its intended consequences.     

Intra-Campaign Changes in Voting Preferences: The Impact of Media and Party Communication

An increasing number of citizens change and adapt their party preferences during the electoral campaign. We analyze which short-term factors explain intra-campaign changes in voting preferences, focusing on the visibility and tone of news media reporting and party canvassing. Our analyses rely on an integrative data approach, linking data from media content analysis to public opinion data. This enables us to investigate the relative impact of news media reporting as well as party communication. Inherently, we overcome previously identified methodological problems in the study of communication effects on voting behavior. Our findings reveal that campaigns matter: Especially interpersonal party canvassing increases voters’ likelihood to change their voting preferences in favor of the respective party, whereas media effects are limited to quality news outlets and depend on individual voters’ party ambivalence.     

How Measurement Error in Content Analysis and Self-Reported Media Use Leads to Minimal Media Effect Findings in Linkage Analyses: A Simulation Study

In the debate on minimal media effects and their causes, methodological concerns about measurement are rarely discussed. We argue that even in state-of-the-art media-effects studies that combine measures of media messages and media use (i.e., linkage analyses), measurement error in both the media content analysis and the media use self-reports will typically lead to severely downward-biased effect estimates. We demonstrate this phenomenon using a large Monte Carlo simulation with varying parameters of the content analysis and the survey study. Results show that measurement error in the content analysis and media use variables does indeed lead to smaller effect estimates, especially when the media messages of interest are relatively rare. We discuss these findings as well as possible remedies and implications for future research.
