Power Struggles,Regulation and Responsibility

This article explores the relationship between the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) and government during the implementation of the Video Recordings Act (VRA). It considers the public Parliamentary debates about the VRA, and places them alongside private correspondence between the Home Office and the BBFC, and internal BBFC material from the recently catalogued James Ferman papers held at the BFI. As well as exploring the introduction of the VRA, this article also aims to briefly consider its implications for the BBFC, how they set about interpreting and implementing its stringent recommendations and how this impacted upon the organisational working practices of the Board. While the VRA was without doubt one of the most significant pieces of legislation within the history of film regulation in Britain, the time is ripe for its reappraisal and with it a re-evaluation of the role played by the BBFC in securing statutory regulatory powers.

增强地方院校服务和创新功能的破“五唯”评价

不少地方高校的年度考核和职称评审照搬中小学做法和一些著名高校的评价指标,缺乏地方特色,也不能促进地方高等教育的发展。破“五唯”实践表明分岗位类别对服务地方和师生的评价正在成为新趋势。因此,需要从贡献地方发展和服务师生的角度,进行分类的专业化和贡献度评价。从常规与创造性劳动的本质差异上,明确学术、技术、教改和管理创新,形成不同类别和职级人员的岗位评价标准。在年度考核中,突出直接利益相关者对各级领导和教师的考评,形成管理增效、服务贴心的分类化破“五唯”评价之路。     

基于质量提升目标的学前教育督导伦理审视

幼儿时期是一个人性格形成与人格发展的奠基期,学前教育质量会直接影响人的一生。教育督导是学前教育质量保障的重要手段。学前教育督导彰显了办学行为评价的公正性,关乎教育资源的公正分配,涉及学前教育关联主体的利益保障。以质量提升为目标的教育督导应以伦理和道德精神为底蕴,指向社会共同体的公平、正义范畴。通过对学前教育督导面临的功利性、正当性和公平性的道德考量,可以看出其在人们的伦理期待中应具有公平、正义、效率、平等的特征。学前教育质量督导的伦理建设应该包括:浸润伦理关怀,拓展伦理交往空间,增强伦理自觉,实现教育正义。     

Training in culture: the case of aikido education and meaning-making outcomes in Japan and the United States

This study investigated whether a relationship existed between instructional style and points of emphasis in the training context of the martial art aikido and the perceptions which practitioners of aikido generated for aikido-related concepts. The findings were gathered within and compared across aikido training settings in two cultures — Japan and the United States. Analysis of the quantitative and qualitative data gathered for this investigation revealed several potent differences between the manner in which Japanese and American aikido practitioners represented their understandings of aikido-related concepts. Differences in the manner in which aikido practitioners in Japan and the United States represented their understandings of aikido reflected the teaching emphasis observed in the respective cultures. It was concluded that aikido instructors represented the values of their own culture in the context of aikido training, and thus served as important mediating forces influencing the meaning which practitioners generated for aikido. An additional finding revealed that in neither culture were participants able to accurately represent how practitioners in the “other” culture structured their understandings of aikido. It was reasoned that both cultural groups generated faulty perceptions of how the “other” group understood aikido because they utilized a similar pattern of projection, using their own meanings of aikido to represent the understandings of practitioners in the “other” cultural group.
