贵州留学日本学生与贵州辛亥革命

20世纪10年代留学日本的贵州学生直接将各种新学思想源源传入贵州,重视政治学理的阐述与政治体制的分析,触及民权、三权分立、共和制度、联邦体制等核心理念,推开了贵州新一轮新学传播热潮。贵州留学生大都在孙中山与梁启超间做出选择,受粱启超影响尤其显著。君主立宪与民主共和两种观念,也由留学生传递回省,两种思想的碰撞从此在贵州拉开了序幕。留学日本的贵州学生为贵州辛亥革命提供了思想资源和干部准备。     

20世纪中国文学中的 "风水" 叙事

近代以来, 作为中国传统文化一脉的风水观因其缺乏 "真确的知识" 而受到摒弃和批判, 五四以来风水一直受到科学理性、 唯物主义主导的文学思潮的攻伐. 随后, 20世纪中国社会及文化思潮发生了巨大的变迁,风水在文学中的境遇也因时而易, 这不但反映了时代思潮的嬗变, 还纠结着20世纪纷繁复杂的政治、 哲学及美学取向. 尤其是随着90年代中国文化语境的变迁, 风水文化逐渐浮现出其反思现代性的 "复魅" 特质.

Dynamic Stackelberg games under open-loop complete information

Stackelberg games, which play extremely important roles in such fields as economics, management, politics and behavioral sciences, can be modelled as a bilevel optimization problem. There exist extensive literatures about static bilevel optimization problems. However, the studies on dynamic bilevel optimization problems are rather scarce in spite of the importance in explaining and predicting some phenomena rationally. In this paper, discrete time dynamic Stackelberg games with open loop complete state are revisited. An example, which comes from law field, is presented as an open-loop Stackelberg game to illuminate the rangy application of game theory. A property based on Bellman's equation is proposed without any restriction about inner point solution for open-loop Stackelberg games in this work. Moreover, we point out that open-loop Stackelberg games perform no better than both feedback and closed-loop dynamic Stackelberg games with complete information, which seems quite valuable to explain some social and economic phenomena.     

国学运动与理学

理学与国学运动有着密切关系,20世纪前期的国学运动中存在着明显的国粹派和新潮派两大派。在许多国粹学者看来,儒学是国粹,而宋代兴起的新儒学—理学才是国粹的核心。新潮派国学家将宋明理学作为研究对象,将宋明理学典籍作为国学基础之一,而不是尊之为"国粹",这是新潮派和国粹派的分歧所在。新潮派国学家知道对理学的批判并非他们的任务,他们的任务是从纯学术的观点出发,采用新的科学方法,以解决理学的某些困难的学术问题。国学家们对理学基本事实的考证能促进理学研究的进一步发展。     

Educational gaps in medical care and health behavior: Evidence from US Natality data

The US Natality files provide information on medical procedures and health related behavior during pregnancy and childbirth. The data set represents nearly the universe of mothers who give birth in the US, providing the most complete coverage possible of medical care and health behavior among a specific patient population. We document gaps in outcomes by education of the mother and the changes in these educational gaps during 1989-2002.     

School quality, child wellbeing and parents’ satisfaction

Child wellbeing at school and enjoyment of the learning environment are important economic outcomes, in particular because a growing body of research shows they are strongly linked to later educational attainments and labour market success. However, the standard working assumption in the economics of education is that parents choose schools on the basis of test-score performance, and concerns about child happiness are largely ignored. In this paper, we address this omission and investigate to what extent parents’ and children's views of their school are linked to test-score based performance, and to what extent parents’ judgements of school quality are linked to their child's happiness. To do so, we use information on stated attitudes from the Longitudinal Survey of Young People in England (LSYPE) matched to administrative records on pupil achievements in England. Our results suggest that test-score based measures of school quality tend to dominate parental satisfaction with the learning environment. However, school quality along this dimension is not strongly associated with pupil happiness and wellbeing at school.     

Which children benefit from non-parental care?

This paper investigates the relationship between non-parental care and toddlers’ behavioral outcomes using data from Australia. In particular, we explore heterogeneity in the relationship using the unique data on quality attributes: carer/child ratio, share of qualified staff, and expert ratings. The results suggest that full-time non-parental care, particularly center care, is negatively associated with toddlers’ behavioral outcomes. The negative association is however mitigated when centers have a larger number of carers per child. The negative association between non-parental care and behavioral outcomes also appears to be larger for children with better-educated parents.     

Immigration and student achievement: Evidence from Switzerland

This paper investigates empirically whether immigrant students in Switzerland perform poorly compared to their native counterparts and provides some explanations. Using a national sample of the 2000 PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) database, we first analyze the impact of immigrant status on pupils’ achievement. We find a negative and significant impact of immigrant status on test scores in reading, mathematics and science literacy, even after controlling for a set of characteristics. We then decompose the observed reading score gap between Swiss and immigrant students to identify whether gaps in endowments explain test score differences along the distribution. Lower endowments explain most of the achievement gap in reading between Swiss and second-generation immigrants. However, lower returns explain around one quarter of the achievement gap between Swiss and first-generation immigrants for the weakest pupils.     

中国体育旅游研究20年:述评与展望

以文献述评为基础,首先简要回顾了20年来中国体育旅游研究历程;从体育旅游概念界定、体育旅游类型分类、体育旅游专项规划和体育旅游发展对策四个方面对20年来国内体育旅游的研究成果进行了分析述评和研究.提出了:1)体育旅游概念界定的本质属性关键看体育,旅游仅是其一般属性;2)体育旅游概念在“体育”属性上的清晰界定,将为体育旅游的科学研究提供一个全新的理论框架体系;3)体育旅游不仅属于旅游业,更是体育产业的重要组成部分;4)体育旅游资源类型按照国家标准分为康体型、观光型和赛事型三种类型;5)体育旅游的研究范畴应从“体育旅游资源”向“体育游憩资源”深化拓展;6)体育旅游规划应向体育旅游“专项游憩规划”和“中高端业态规划”方向深化;7)体育旅游发展对策需从产业融合的经济视角挖掘其深层次发展的瓶颈与障碍等观点与建议.最后从旅游业和体育产业的国家政策以及部门“十二五”规划对体育旅游的大力发展措施上,展望了中国体育旅游未来的研究前景、研究内容框架体系和旅游院校相应的调整与变革.
