试论道教的和平观

和平是在战争、战乱中升华出来的人类理想。中华民族是一个爱好和平的民族,和平意识在中国土生土长的道教中得到了充分反映。道教和平观的内容相当丰富,包括反对战争,尊重生命,平安不伤,社会公平,追求人、社会、自然的和谐等。道教和平观是一种取法自然的和平观,而社会的太平则以自然生态系统的太平为出发点和依据。     

Risk attitude assessment using roulette and a supply chain simulation

Many topics that are taught in supply chain management (SCM) programs include elements of variability and risk. With quantitative tools in particular, it is assumed that the decision makers using the tools are risk neutral, which is typically not the case in real-life decision situations. The topic of an individual's attitude toward risk has received limited attention in SCM literature and is not a high-profile topic in SCM textbooks. The teaching exercise presented in this paper uses two games—roulette and a SCM simulation—to provide students with an assessment of their own attitude toward risk, and in doing so, facilitates a classroom discussion of risk and risk attitude. These games were developed by the authors and can be played either within Excel or a web application.
