留学生与清未民初的移风易俗

伴随着中国社会的转型,清末民初的社会风俗在近代化起步后受社会进步思潮和西方文化的冲击,呈现出移风易俗的新气象,体现了社会的进步。其间,学成归国的留学生们对“天下移风”起到了不可忽视的作用。他们对清末民初移风易俗的贡献主要体现在两方面:一、理论上积极倡导,创办刊物,著书立说,宣扬移风易俗的意义,主张剪辫易服,废除跪拜,反对男尊女卑,提倡婚姻自由,并组织风俗改良团体,制定法令,发表演说等。二、他们在积极倡导移风易俗的同时,更以可贵的勇气身体力行,成为铲除社会陋俗、树立社会新风的重要力量,并体现出大多以西方国家的习俗为楷模、融入爱国主义情怀、参与领域广泛和女留学生更为注重妇女解放等特点。     

社会文化对青少年人格塑造的影响及对策

人格的塑造和发展要受生物遗传和社会环境双重因素的交互影响。生物遗传决定人格发展的可能性,社会文化环境决定人格发展的现实性。社会文化对人格塑造既有正面的影响,也有负面的影响。控制和不断优化社会文化环境是促进青少年人格健康成长的关键所在。     

中美合作教育社会环境比较研究

合作教育社会性特点十分突出，在运行中受到社会诸多因素的制约和影响。中美两国实施合作教育的社会环境存在显著差异。美国高校和企业均有高度的自主权，且政府倡导产学合作，给予经费上的支持，政策法规完善；我国则市场机制不健全，高校受学制、经费等因素困扰，企业缺乏接纳能力，政府推进力度不够。改善合作教育环境是我国发展合作教育的关键。

Many choices,one destination: multimodal university brand construction in an urban public transportation system

Amidst global competition in higher education, colleges and universities adopt strategies that mimic and adapt business practices. Branding is now a widespread practice in higher education; multimodal advertisement is a manifestation of emerging branding strategies for universities. While the visibility of brands in higher education has grown substantially in recent years, its empirical study has lagged. This article reports on the findings from a study that employed social semiotic and multimodal analysis to explore text and visual rhetoric as brand construction strategies in publicly displayed university advertisements. After analyzing photographs representing advertising campaigns from 16 different universities displayed in an urban public transportation system, I suggest that universities construct their brand identity through messages that emphasize multiple choices and convenience, but construct success primarily according to corporate standards and values.

和谐社会与政府公共职能的系统分析

结构和谐欠缺、功能和谐欠缺、整体和谐欠缺是我们这个社会有机体实现和谐所面临的主要问题和挑战,而社会冲突则是其外化的主要形式。从系统论的角度看,一个系统要实现结构、功能和整体的和谐,获得良性的运行和发展,通常依赖于动力机制、整合机制、激励机制、控制机制、保障机制的支持。政府公共职能的本质就在于通过建立正义的利益共享机制、有效的冲突控制机制、科学的民主决策机制、灵敏的社会预警机制、良好的自然保护机制等,来控制社会冲突,实现社会有机体的平衡,最终构建一个融洽祥和、互动共享的和谐社会。     

论作为社会历史剧中人物和剧作者的人的历史辩证法

在马克思主义思想史上,马克思曾经把社会历史比喻为由集剧中人物和剧作者双重角色于一身的人出演的既有多重主题又有波澜曲折情节和节奏的历史活剧,提出了人是社会历史的剧中人物和剧作者的历史辩证法思想,并运用这一重要方法论分析重大社会历史事件、发现重大的历史运动规律和阐发历史唯物主义。在马克思看来,社会历史是人通过人的劳动实践而生成的过程和人们交互活动的产物;人之所以兼有社会历史的剧作者和剧中人物的双重身分,在于人作为有生命的存在物是能动的和受动的统一,在于人的自由自觉的活动的类本质,在于实践和交往是人的社会历史活动的舞台或环境。     

社会公正下的教育和就业政策问题——法国新劳工法案《首次雇佣合同》（CPE）评析

2006年初,法国颁布的《首次雇佣合同》法案(Cntrat Pemirèe Ebauche,简称CPE)引起了社会的强烈反响,包括工人、学生在内的大规模游行随即开始。其背后隐藏着深刻的社会背景和政治、经济原因。法国新劳工法案的颁发触及到了一部分社会群体的利益,是法国社会动荡形成的重要成因。从社会公正这一视点出发,来探讨法国的教育和就业政策问题,就显得尤为重要和可行。     

Beyond educational attainment: The importance of skills and lifelong learning for social outcomes. Evidence for Europe from PIAAC

Empirical evidence suggests that educational attainment nurtures people's social outcomes and promotes active participation in society and stability. However, it is unclear to what extent other types of human capital also correlate with social outcomes. Hence, we explored the opportunity offered by the PIAAC survey through its provision of information on educational attainment, observed individual key skills proficiency, and participation in adult education and training (adult lifelong learning). We therefore studied the association between these human capital variables and social outcomes, and more specifically interpersonal trust and participation in volunteering activities. Results revealed that these social outcomes were affected not only by the formal qualification obtained, determined by the education variable, but also throughout the life‐cycle. Indeed, education and training when undertaken during adult life have a significant impact, especially on volunteering. The fact that the skill proficiency also plays a significant role is extremely relevant, as skills are more likely to change over the life‐cycle, either in a positive or negative way. Whilst the formal education received is constant after exiting the educational system, skills reflect competences more accurately: first, because those with the same level of education may have different skill levels because of differences in the quality of education or ability; second, because skills can vary over time. For example, they may increase with work experience or informal education, or decrease as a result of depreciation and ageing. These findings suggest that social outcomes are prone to be affected by many factors other than formal education, suggesting that policy makers can implement recommendations even after formal education has been completed.
