论文化传统的断裂、延续与不同传统之间对话的可能性

文化传统在发展演变的过程中会发生断裂 ,也会不断延续。重要的是要确认和研究哪些传统断裂了 ,哪些传统延续下来并至今还在起作用 ;尤其要关注中国近代以来产生的各种新传统以及体现于民间的文化心理结构 ,这对理解当代中国社会历史进程有着重要意义。在不同民族文化交流和对话当中 ,深入特定文化所产生的语境 ,对于理解不同文化特别重要。过分强调理解中“前见”的作用 ,会造成真正的“误读”。

秦皇朝覆亡新论--兼谈文化交流的一些理论问题

秦皇朝的迅速覆亡,是因为秦统治者将秦国西戎范围内形成的文化价值观念生搬硬套地移植到中原,拒绝接受中原的先进文化改造,从而遭到中原文化的全面阻抗.秦皇朝的覆亡说明了文化交流中的一个普遍规律:一种边缘文化要想成为主流文化,必须具有两个重要条件,一是必须勇敢地融入主流文化之中,二是必须保持自己的文化特色.     

Speaking Their Language: How to Communicate Better with Policymakers and Opinion Shapers – and Why Academics Should Bother in the First Place

Scholars of international environmental politics who want their work to affect policy must learn to speak and write in a slightly different language – with extreme concision, an appealing format, and ready solutions to pressing policy questions. While communicating directly with policymakers and journalists can be time-consuming and exasperating, the direct approach may be the only way to rise above the din of the increasingly noisy marketplace of ideas.

“Untouchable” cellphones? Old caste exclusions and new digital divides in peri-urban Bangalore

This paper presents a fresh perspective on the complicated relationship between digital communication technologies and historically disadvantaged castes such as Dalits in peri-urban Bangalore (Bengaluru), India, a city popularly perceived as India’s “Silicon Valley.” Based on interviews with Dalit household members, entrepreneurs, and political activists, the study examines whether mobile phones have been insufficiently harnessed by Dalits in the region to overcome historic deprivation, or whether they may have even assisted in the reinforcement of caste-based exclusion. The paper uses oral histories and draws from feminist perspectives on technology to demonstrate how the contemporary socio-technological outcomes among Dalits in peri-urban south Bangalore is a result of a convergence between three elements – the durability of caste in peri-urban metropolitan India, the social construction of the usage of information communication technologies (ICTs), and myopia in the conventional understanding of the digital divide in India. In the process of disentangling this convergence, the paper offers a new perspective on the relationship between caste, ICTs, and development policy. The paper ultimately argues for a re-examination of the idea of a digital divide and the development assumption that access to new technologies will further positive development outcomes.     

The Impact of Social Media Use for Elected Parliamentarians: Evidence from Politicians' Use of Twitter During the Last Two Swiss Legislatures

Notwithstanding growing research on how using social media for political campaigning impacts politicians' chances of winning votes, we still have limited knowledge about whether and how the use of social media and online styles of communication affect political success over successive legislatures. We address this deficit by analyzing a panel dataset about the Twitter activity of politicians who have had a parliamentary mandate at least once. We first demonstrate that politicians' interaction with specific online audiences (e.g. in terms of replies and mentions) is still evolving, thus pointing to possible strategic adaptations of politicians' communication as social media are mastered. Then, we show that Twitter-based activity moderately impacts politicians' political success, both in terms of political ranking and media coverage. This success, however, strongly depends on the style of political communication and on the legislature under scrutiny.     

明末至清前期“子学”比附“西学”的境遇和意义

利用传统学术资源，与西学知识进行“比附”，论证“中西相通”或“西学中源”，是明末清初以来中国思想界认识西学的重要途径。以先秦诸子为核心的“子学”从一开始便充当了“中西比附”的依据和资料来源。士人通过“以子证西”，一方面认识了部分西学知识，维护了对“中学”的自信和坚守，但另一方面也因此阻碍了对西学的学习和利用。
