A new age for child protection--General Comment 13: why it is important, how it was constructed, and what it intends?

Children continue to be subjected to high levels of violence (i.e., physical, psychological and sexual maltreatment) throughout the world. International concern about violence against children has increased significantly during the last decade. A Study on Violence Against Children, encouraged by the UN Committee on the Rights of the Child, conducted under the auspices of the United Nations Secretary General and reported in 2006, has become a rallying call to improve child protection. Child protection practices and systems have been judged to be generally inadequate and, in some cases, destructive. It is widely recognized that business as usual—more of the same—will not do. A General Comment (guide to fulfilling obligations) for Article 19, the central conceptualization of child protection of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, has the potential to promote a worldwide reformulation of child protection priorities, policies, and practices by virtue of the infusion of a child rights approach. It can be a mechanism for framing and promoting the transformational change needed – for a genuine paradigm shift. Here, explication is given for the historical context, rationale, centrality of child rights, process of development, holistic nature, and primary elements of General Comment 13 (GC13): The child's right to freedom from all forms of violence. GC13 embodies and champions a child rights approach to child protection entailing strong support for proactive primary prevention, promotion of good child care, and a commitment to secure the rights and well-being of all children. A child rights-based, comprehensive coordinating framework is recommended for the implementation of GC13.

对中国现代化发展理性原则的再思考

当代中国的现代化发展日益与全球化的趋势交织在一起。面对西方发达国家占主导的全球化潮流,我们对中国现代化的理解,应引入价值观和理性原则,使现代化的内涵不囿于经济增长、技术进步,而把它理解为文化模式、价值系统的建构,既要从历史的角度分析中国传统因素的影响,又要注重实现将具有普遍主义特征的全球秩序与中国的特异性相结合,探讨如何从社会内在生产力培育的意义上推进中国现代化,在自己传统与现实中寻找发展中国的根据与模式。     

帛书《五十二病方》成书年代新探

帛书《五十二病方》(简称《病方》)是1973年长沙马王堆三号汉墓出土医书文字最多的医方文献,也是目前已知最早方书。《病方》成书年代,从发掘以来就一直被国内外学者所关注,至今没有定论。本文认为有卷首目录有篇题的52篇正文内容是该文献较晚流传阶段一个独立完整的书籍文献单位,在此基础上从该书文例特点、用语情况及编者地域等方面重新考察其最后成编年代,认为该书籍文献大约成编于秦汉之际或汉代初年。

Medicine and literature: a section in a medical university library

Objectives: In 2007, the Alberto Malliani Medical Library of the Università degli Studi in Milan decided to order some novels for its students. The library purchased 24 titles written by famous authors and planned to add others in the future. The proposal for this action was made by a professor, with whom the library had previously co‐operated in organising meetings for students. This article summarises the results of this experiment over 4 years, from its conception, to determine whether any positive outcome has resulted, including how library users welcomed this addition to the library and evaluation of its economic sustainability. Results: Data from July 2007 to December 2010 are presented in terms of the initial purchases, costs, and volume of lending for this section of the library; in addition, readers’ preferences are examined. Conclusions: A university medical library can act as a stimulus to its students’ new or renewed interest in literature, assuming that the novels, biographies, and short stories can contribute positively to the training of medical students. Therefore, setting up a special section can be useful, even though the costs of this section must be limited. A questionnaire could be the method of gathering information about users’ assessment.
