美学想像的政治与政治批判的美学--爱德华·赛义德文化研究模式的贡献及其困境

赛义德发展了一种重要的政治批评,其批判锋芒直指殖民主义的美学式政治,即以美学想像的政治形式把东方想像成纯粹的美学式存在,从而掩盖殖民主义话语侵略与压迫的实质。然而,需要指出的是,他的这种学术策略不过是以一种软弱的美学行为去反抗另一种美学行为,以政治批判的美学方式批判美学式政治方式,与殖民主义者一起共同完成了对美学的政治作用的认同与憧憬,从而使其东方主义理论陷入悖论式窘境。     

全球化语境下的大学语文教学

大学语文作为高校开设时间最早、开设最为普遍的人文学科课程,要想在消解全球化语境负面影响方面发挥作用,必须在教学中立足文化视角,以传承中国传统文化为旨归;凸现人文内涵,以专题教学为实际操作方式;紧扣学生实际,以渗透健康人格教育为契合点;贯穿美感教育,以提升审美品位为最终目的。     

审美教育与小学语文教学

审美教育是当代教育的重要课题。小语学科兼具实用性和审美性两重特点，语教学是培养学生审美素质的良好途径。语审美教育的实施，要以良好师生关系的建立为基础，对小语教学目的的重新认识和对小语标准化考试的改革也是小语审美教育实施中的重要问题。在小语审美教育的实施过程中还要防止在理论上过分夸大美育地位以及实践中将审美教育庸俗化、表面化、简单化的倾向。

The political process of Boko Haram insurgency onset: a political relevance model

ABSTRACT

As more data emerges on the Boko Haram phenomenon, the controversy over the roots of the insurgency persists. While some emphasise transnational motivational factors based on the Salafist ideology, others focus on diverse local structural factors, including the economy, religion, and politics. Although this article acknowledges the importance of these factors, it argues that these are ubiquitous contextual factors which insufficiently explain the location and timing of the insurgency. By introducing the Political Relevance Model, this article theorises the insurgency onset by focusing on the agency of the local political elites and their relationship with the sect. It finds that the insurgency is rooted in an initial mutually beneficial relationship between the local political elites and a politically relevant group that turned sour, resulting in the attempt by the elites to withdraw the group’s earlier privileges using state coercion which the group frames as state repression requiring violent resistance. These agents have, in their interest, framed this struggle to resonate with the people.     

Turning off jail turnover: do generational differences matter?

Reducing turnover in America’s jails is a significant fiscal concern and a serious organizational challenge. When determining how to improve retention, the private sector has been influenced by the literature on generational relevance. To explore whether similar cohort-driven motivators might be productively directed toward reducing jail turnover, the application of generational relevance theory to jails was empirically tested. To assess the impact of retention-related variables on various age cohorts working in America’s jails, a national survey was administered to jail staff throughout the country. Results indicate that less than half of the variables included in the analysis reached levels of statistical significance when analyzed by generational cohorts, and even among significant variables, over one-third were age-driven by nature. Although the findings do little to advance the cause of generational relevance theory, they are not without merit for jail administrators seeking to reduce turnover, pointing toward the universal appeal such intrinsic factors as treating people fairly, creating a positive work climate, and assuring that employees are listened to, have input, and are recognized, respected, and appreciated. Essentially, results indicate that reducing jail turnover is more likely to be a product of initiatives that are generically requisite than generationally relevant.

旅游审美意象论——试析西双版纳的风情旅游

在中国 ,民族风情的审美往往与悟道联系在一起。庄子认为“天地有大美而不言” ,审美者只有超越感性知性 ,并敞亮心灵的第三层面 ,才能领会美。旅游者在进行旅游活动时 ,面对民族风情产生的审美观照 ,往往是源于旅游目的地中所见所闻所感而产生的强烈情感体验。用西方哲人柏拉图的话说就是“灵魂遍体沸腾跳动”和一种“惊喜不能自制”     

中国倡导国际关系民主化的重大战略意义

经济全球化和世界多极化发展，呼唤和催生国际关系民主化，同时，实现国际关系民主化也是当前大多数国家在国际关系中追求的价值取向。当前影响和平与发展的不确定因素依然存在，要从根本上解决这些问题必须通过实现国际关系民主化这一途径来加以解决。实现国际关系民主化目标是一个长期的渐进过程，应该从道义和舆论、双边或多边外交关系和国际制度建设三个层面加以推进。这一思想无论是在理论领域丰富和发展中国国际战略思想，还是在维护世界和平、促进发展、提高中国的国际地位、改善和发展我国的对外关系等实践中都具有非常重要的战略意义。
