高职院校大学生职业道德教育区域差异性研究

职业道德教育是高职院校人才培养应有之义,其教育状况直接决定人才培养质量。大量调查数据表明,高职院校大学生职业道德教育状况基本与区域经济发展和学校整体办学水平没有直接因果关系,与学校本身对此项工作重视程度直接相关。学校应高度重视大学生职业道德教育工作,建立高效运行机制,加强课程建设和考核,加大教师队伍建设,坚持“两原则、八结合”,重点抓好九个关键环节,多举措统筹推进职业道德教育,这样才能为社会培养更优秀的高素质复合型高技能人才。     

转基因技术的伦理辩护及其限度

转基因技术是现代科技发展的前沿领域,它的出现在给人类带来福祉的同时,也会给自然生态环境造成不良的影响。正因为如此,人类中心主义和自然中心主义对转基因技术及其应用持不同的伦理立场——支持或否定。当然,两者都没有足够的理由。要摆脱这一困境,有必要超越人类中心主义和自然中心主义,建构一种新的自然观。这种新自然观的基本立场是：立足于人类是自然大家庭中的成员这一科学事实,把人类的活动纳入自然演化的一个重要环节来加以考察,同时充分考虑到人类活动的自由自觉性特点。尊重自然和尊重人类权利两者的有机结合,是我们对待转基因技术及其应用所应持的基本的伦理维度。     

司法权威视阈下法官管理机制的探讨

司法权威是指司法机关及其司法人员应当享有的威信和公信力。司法权威的树立对于法官管理机制提出了很高的要求,即法官具有一定的独立地位;法官专业化和精英化;法官高薪制;法官严守职业道德。针对我国法官管理机制存在的诸多弊端,有必要加以完善,以维护司法权威,确保司法公正。     

一种技术时代的责任伦理何以可能——试论汉斯·约纳斯的责任原理及其实践

约纳斯认为,传统伦理学在本质上是人类中心论的,这种伦理学对技术时代的文明产生了负面影响.他基于对科学技术的哲学批判和伦理评估,尝试建立一种新型的伦理学,即责任伦理.他从责任的起源、实现及其基础等方面对责任伦理进行了理论探讨,不仅试图回答技术时代的责任伦理何以可能的问题,而且力图将责任原理[命令]运用到技术、医学与伦理学领域,表明这种责任伦理之于技术时代的重要性及其现实效应.约纳斯对责任原理的论证诉诸道德直觉和神学奠基,在责任的实现途径上他既诉诸于集体权力又强调个体责任;而这种不同于以往伦理学的理论尝试根植于他对人类中心论的深刻反思以及对自然和价值别具匠心的理解.     

论教师职业道德与教师专业发展

教师职业道德是教师专业发展的核心内容,是教师专业发展的动力支持,教师职业道德的提升是更高层次的教师专业发展。加强教师职业道德建设是推进教师专业发展的必然需求。有效的教师职业道德建设应与教师专业发展相结合,应关注教师的职业生活,重视教师需要,凸显教师的主体性,应加强学校管理制度的伦理内涵的建设。     

道德空间界说

道德空间作为一种亚空间存在,既是人为的空间,也是为人的空间,包括个体道德空间与社会伦理空间两个向度。在道德空间语境下,道德教育即道德空间建构、凝聚及流动的过程,是明晰个体道德空间界限、凝聚社会伦理空间共识、强化个体道德空间与社会伦理空间双向流动的中坚力量。在当下道德教育中,个体道德空间的错位、社会伦理空间的肢解及个体道德空间与社会伦理空间的静态悬置等道德空间危机频仍,以致其建构受阻、凝聚受限、流动受堵。道德教育理应对此作出回应,借由观照生命整全、构筑信任社会及塑造公共道德的实现进路,重建令人心之所向、行之所往的道德空间。     

Deceptive Journalism: Characteristics of Untrustworthy News Items

ABSTRACT

Trustworthiness is key in journalism, yet some journalists intentionally deceive their audiences by fabricating sources or inventing news stories altogether. Earlier research suggests that deceitful news articles have characteristics that are different from trustworthy news articles. We aimed to confirm and expand on the existing literature by examining the case of Perdiep Ramesar, an esteemed Dutch journalist until it was discovered in 2014 that sources were non-existing in 126 of his articles for national newspaper Trouw (“Fidelity”). Using content analysis, we searched for systematic differences in source use and presentation comparing Ramesar’s deceptive news articles with two same-sized sets of reliable articles, (1) articles on similar topics from other journalists and (2) articles with verifiable sources from Ramesar himself. Results indicate that compared to real news sources, fictitious sources are more often secondary definers, who are presented in more stereotypical ways and through more and longer direct quotations. Furthermore, negations and self-references occur more often in deceptive news articles.     

The impact of consumers’ perceptions regarding the ethics of online retailers and promotional strategy on their repurchase intention

Cause-related marketing (CRM) has become increasingly popular and widely adopted by large companies. However, not much attention has been paid to the effect of CRM on small or unknown online retailers. As ethical concerns about the Internet continue to rise, consumers' perceptions regarding the ethics of online retailers (CPEOR) become important when making a purchase decision. This research uses the self-signaling theory to examine how online retailers’ information management and promotional strategy (CRM vs. Price Discount) may emit signals and impact on the consumers’ repurchase intention. It was assumed that a high CPEOR would work better with a CRM-based strategy, which is fundamentally aligning in ethics. However, the experimental results surprisingly revealed that when CPEOR was high, the consumers’ repurchase intention increased in the case of a Price Discount-based promotion when compared to a CRM-based promotion; the effect was the opposite when consumers’ CPEOR was low. ANCOVA was used to analyze the data while setting certain variables as covariates. This research is a meaningful contribution to the literature and serves as an important reference for e-commerce practitioners to understand how they can wisely manage the information on the online storefront to signal their consumers and create an incremental value for the business.     

“Roy's Turkish Delight”: Football,Nationalism and the Representation of Turkey in the British Sports Media

ABSTRACT

A large body of literature in representational studies reflects a deep professional concern over the negative effect of the role of the media in representing significant Others. Western media's coverage of an international event, in this case, a football competition, raises some ethical questions about the choice of specific lexical items and textual contents. Drawing on the work of Stuart Hall's representation theory, this article examines how Turkey, a nation located on the semi-periphery of Europe, is represented in Western media outlets. By looking at the role that sections of the British sports press plays in their construction of the Turkish national identity, I evaluate the Euro 2016 and Euro 2004 reporting of the UEFA European Championship qualifying matches between Turkey and England. I apply a combination of lexical and narrative analysis, and I question the way that Turkey is represented in the British sport texts. The style and language used in the presentation of football games reveals that British media outlets are prone to present England's politically and economically powerful position, and its cultural superiority over Turkey. Findings also suggest that the discourse of the “West and the Rest” is alive in the modern world.
