“审美关照”的实践语境与社会管理创新

审美关照可以强化人们在市场经济活动中的适宜感和审美感受,是一种在功利活动中非功利的、指向更深层的、精神上的情感体验,表达对人的"终极关怀"。中国特色社会主义建设进程中的审美关照,有一个基本着眼点,就是关照普通人的生命际遇,维护和促进其生命历程的健康、美满。对人们生存样态的整体关照,既维护了广大人民群众的安全利益,又强化了社会管理的职能,促使少数社会治安高危人员避免走上危害社会的道路,对这些人成为自食其力的劳动者能够起到重要的匡正作用。从提高办事效率的视角进行审美关照,为每个人的全面发展创造条件,群众满意率则会不断攀升。

At the Edges and on the Margins: Hearing the Voices of Young People in South Pacific Island Countries

Abstract

‘Youth’ are frequently referred to under the mantra of inclusivity in any aid-funded project, development initiative or government–donor initiative in the Pacific region. Indeed, ‘youth’ ranks alongside ‘women/gender’ as a catch term for communicating diversity compliance. But how are ‘youth’ framed and who speaks for this group of people who are not yet adults or are only just adults in law, and yet are beyond the voiceless or barely articulate stage of childhood? This question may be particularly pertinent in cultures such as those found in the Pacific, where the right to speak out is traditionally not afforded to those on the edge of adulthood, and where ‘youth’ for the purposes of inclusive dialogue frequently means people over the age of 20. Although they may seem isolated, the Pacific islands are linked to global, regional and national movements to give young people more voice, to recognise the valuable contributions they can make and to ensure that they are participants in determining their own futures.
