研究项目中课题组成员关系的差序格局探析——以图情文类国家社科基金项目为例

社会学家费孝通先生在研究中国乡村结构时提出了差序格局的概念,用以说明中国传统社会不同于西方社会“团体格局”的特点.差序格局的形成受到以下因素影响：血缘、地缘、经济水平、政治地位、知识文化水平.本研究以2005-2010年图情文类国家社科基金项目为样本,运用社会网络分析方法,分别从地缘、业缘和学缘三个方面探讨了研究项目课题组成员中反映出的关系和结构,探究并验证在课题研究中是否存在“差序结构”,并分析这种差序格局对学术研究的影响.     

“We’re not a bank providing support”: Street-level bureaucrats and Syrian refugee youth navigating tensions in higher education scholarship programs in Lebanon

Scholarships are increasingly used to expand higher education access for refugee youth in exile, but less is known about their equity implications. Drawing from scholarship on street-level bureaucrats and Nancy Fraser’s theory of social justice, I identify street-level bureaucrats’ (SLBs) decision-making within refugee higher education. Drawing on 62 interviews with Syrian youth and organizations in NGOs in Lebanon, and 24 organizational, scholarship-related documents, I elaborate the fundamental (mis)alignments that emerge in scholarship-granting organizations’ goals, and the needs of refugee youth they seek to support. Organizations over-emphasize transitions to university, overlooking the most vulnerable youths’ transitions through university. Though youth link their futures to opportunity and not geography, SLBs seek to fund youth willing to return to Syria and engage in post-conflict reconstruction.     

How international scholarship recipients perceive their contributions to the development of their home countries: Findings from a comparative study of Georgia and Moldova

International scholarships support higher education abroad, often with the expectation that recipients will ultimately “give back” to their home countries. Little is known about how scholarship alumni from low- and middle-income countries view their contributions and whether activities differ between countries. By comparing Georgia and Moldova, this research indicates that employment is the central way that alumni perceive that they “give back,” with government positions deemed most influential. In Georgia, alumni assumed federal posts, whereas in Moldova, alumni sought positions in international organizations and businesses, resulting in differing contributions to national development. Findings aim to inform sponsored student mobility programs promoting socioeconomic development in participants’ countries.     

Do girls’ scholarship programs work? Evidence from two countries

This study examined the extent that a scholarship program operating in Sierra Leone and Djibouti was successful in increasing girls’ persistence in basic education. Results of field studies indicated that scholarships could be appropriately targeted and delivered in ways that appear to minimize misappropriation of funds. However, the scholarships often created significant tensions between award recipients and non-recipients and among their families that frequently isolated recipient girls and led to their harassment by non-recipients. These findings are interpreted within the context of the larger debate about the relative merit of abolishing school fees for all students or targeting scholarships for only the neediest students.     

广西高校奖助学金评定情况调查及对策研究

通过对广西高校贫困生与非贫困生的的家庭人均月收入、消费水平和学费生活费来源等情况的调查,分析说明奖助学金对于高校贫困生的作用和影响以及目前奖助学金评定中出现的问题和需要改进的方向。针对奖助学金在实际执行和落实过程中存在的不足,提出基于层次分析法的多指标综合评定体系以及基于模糊综合评价法的班级综合评定方法。利用打分制将定性问题转化为定量问题,给出了一套完整的高校奖助学金评定流程。
