锡克族与1857年印度民族大起义——论锡克教民族主义及其角色

锡克族是一个典型的宗教民族,在1857年民族大起义中,锡克族站到英国殖民者一边参与镇压起义,被殖民者所利用,成了殖民政治的行动工具;但从印度历史的转型和锡克族的历史特性来看,锡克族成了宗教民族主义报复者,客观上还充当了印度历史旧秩序——莫卧儿王朝宗教压迫的报应执行者,这是其宗教民族主义在印度历史发展不平衡规律下的使然。     

中国式民族主义思维范式在教育研究中的表现及其影响

在中国的民族主义发展历程中,形成了中国式的民族主义思维范式。这种思维范式在我国教育研究中形成了一些特殊现象,并且对我国的教育研究产生了一些不利的影响。中国的教育要发展,必须生成自己的教育思想,必须突破中国式民族主义思维范式的限制。     

Nations in shame and art’s shame: towards a radical politics of image and affect around “Okinawa”

ABSTRACT

This article first examines the resurgence of popular, semi-academic nationalist discourses that solidify the figures of “Japan” and “Okinawa” within post-1945 U.S.-led formation of nation-states across the Asia-Pacific. It critiques two discourses that are symptomatic of such a return to the figure of the nation: developmental economist Matsushima Yasukatsu’s thesis of “Ryukyu’s independence” and philosopher Takahashi Tetsuya’s call to relocate the U.S. military bases from Okinawa to mainland Japan. These symptomatic instances of the mutually transferential nationalisms in Okinawa and mainland Japan rely upon crudely culturalist assumptions about the self and the others and are thus surprisingly oblivious to how the very nation-forms have been instituted as part of imperial modernity. Their implicit figurations of the exemplary national subjects partake in the biopolitical assumptions as to whose lives must be “made to live” and “made to die” within and outside the border of the national. Ultimately, such nationalist discourses about Japan and Okinawa engage in a zero-sum exchange of imperial shame and colonial shame, a process that further stabilizes the co-operative placement of local nation-forms within the U.S.-led inter-state regime of warfare and biopolitics. But insofar as these discourses require the images of the nations that they seek to represent, their (re)production of what Naoki Sakai calls “a schema of co-figurative” nationalities needs to be critiqued through an exploration of a radical aesthetics and affect that pertain to image production.

The second part of the article presents my interpretation of artist Nema Satoko’s recent book of photography titled Paradigm, a work in which both bodies and objects explore their potential transformations in the midst of their precarious exposure to one another. I argue that Nema’s images of fragile bodies and objects in the present landscape of Okinawa are poised on the cusp between the past that invokes a sense of shame and this past’s potential future that necessitates an ethical posture of humility. In the vicinity of Adorno’s notion of “art’s shame,” Nema’s photographic images illuminate an amorphous realm of fragile beings, whose linkage and exposure to one another opens a space of viability that is obscured by the biopolitical imaginaries of nation-forms.     

Cohesion,citizenship and coherence: schools’ responses to the British values policy

This paper explores how teachers respond to the requirement to promote ‘fundamental British values’ (FBV) to their pupils. It offers a preliminary analysis of data drawn from interviews with teachers and (mostly lesson) observations in schools. It argue that, first, the policy cannot be understood without a consideration of the multi-layered context in which it is being enacted in schools. Second, it locates the policy to promote FBV as a liberal nationalist one and considers some of the problematic issues that arise from this philosophy. Third, it turns to schools and teachers to consider their reactions and responses. It is concluded that teachers and schools in this research often did attempt to neutralize potentially exclusionary readings of the policy and were effective in absorbing the requirement to promote British values. However, doubt is cast on the policy’s ability to meet its aims and the paper also raise concerns about the limited amount of time given to pupils’ engagement with the values.

日本新世纪战争文学的新变研究——反思与迷惘：日本文学如何反思侵略战争

日本新世纪文学与二次世界大战密切相关,但是其主题既不是反对侵略战争,也不是反对战败,而是从人道主义的立场出发,对整个世界大战进行反思,描写战争的残酷,战时经济困乏以及给普通民众造成的感情扭曲等的心理创伤。作品中都或多或少地流露出反战、厌战的思想意识,其中既有深层次的社会、政治、思想、文化等方面的原因,也与作家的个人体验密切相关。日本反战文学主要包括两个内容;一是对战争的揭露,二是对核战争的反对。纵观日本二战后的文坛,无论从数量上或质量上说,这一意义上的反战文学一直占主导地位。日本新世纪文学是从反战文学起步的。但是也毋庸讳言,由于战前的错误教育和舆论导向,日本人和日本作家对日本军国主义者发动的这场侵略战争的认识和态度不尽一致,所以日本当代反战文学并不是清一色的反对侵略战争的文学,也存在打着反战的旗号为军国主义分子招魂和美化侵略战争的所谓反战文学。二者针锋相对、壁垒分明。,我们期待着日本作家能从加害者的角度,从整体上,从广阔的文化背景上,探讨和剖析这场浩劫的内在原因;如能对这场战争的帝国主义性质给予必要的批判,将具有更加发人深省的影响和巨大推动力量。倘若如此。这必将是世界爱好和平人民的福音。     

Globalization,values education,and school music education in China

This paper examines music education’s legitimation of values as a means of preparing students for entry into the new ‘knowledge society’ of the People’s Republic of China in a global age. It explores the ways in which values education relates to the teaching of both musical and non‐musical meanings in the dual context of nationalism and globalization, and discusses some problems that values education faces in school music classrooms. It examines the ways in which globalization has pressured values education into resolving the apparent contradiction between national identity and national unity in the ever‐changing play of Chinese history and politics. It concludes with a discussion of how music education might juggle three pairs of apparently contradictory relationships in the curriculum: between contemporary cultural and social values on the one hand, and traditional Chinese and Communist ideologies on the other; between collectivism and individualism; and between national and global cultures.     

关于地方高师院校文学类通选课的几点思考——以《中国现当代文学作品选讲》课程的教学实践为例简

上个世纪末。我们国家开始实施大学生文化素质教育。北京大学等重点大学率先推出素质教育通选课方案,随之,地方高师院校纷纷效仿。但内涵理解上上出入较大。本文在梳理通选课由来的国内外背景的基础上,以具体的《文选》课程的实践为例。分析了地方高师院校通选课的现状及改革设想。     

中国高校人文社科研究的绩效评价

首先构建了中国人文社科高校科研绩效的分析框架,从科技产出、投入要素贡献、投入产出效率三个角度进行分析。研究结果表明:从绝对总量看,各高校人文社科水平相差极大;从投入要素的贡献看,科研经费投入与科研人员投入的回归系数总体不高,科研经费的回归系数高于科研人员的回归系数;从投入产出效率看,中国高校人文社科研究的效率偏低,科研经费的利用效率略大于科研人员的利用效率。总体上,中国高校人文社科研究的绩效总体不高。回归分析与DEA分析虽然是两种完全不同的分析方法,但它们的结果是可以互相验证的。
