人与自然和谐共生

艺术设计除了满足人类对生活的追求以外,更应该注重人与自然的和谐相处。艺术设计的原则应该是"人与自然的最高和谐"。人仅仅是自然中的一部分,设计师要充分考虑到人在自然界中的地位,尽可能地回归自然,与自然和谐共生,才能够做出有道德的设计作品来。设计是一项社会活动,设计师需要不断地拷问自己的良心,是否坚持了设计原则,是否坚持了人与自然的和谐共生。     

浅谈道教“贵和”思想的现代意义

和谐,是当今社会的主题。构建和谐社会已经成为全国人民的一项重大任务。挖掘传统文化当中的和谐思想,对于促进和谐,有积极的意义。道教有关"贵和"的思想,强调"恬淡中和"、"慈爱和同"、"太和万物,这对当今社会的个人修养、人际交往和环境保护,实现全社会和谐,均有着重要的启迪意义和借鉴作用。     

论基督教的和谐伦理

基督教是一种以"爱的宗教"和"和好的福音"著称的世界伦理宗教,蕴含丰富的和谐伦理资源。基督教和谐伦理的一个根本理念和主题是重新寻获和谐统一的世界,重建"神-人-自然-世界"的和谐统一。本文主要从四个方面,即终极性的和谐、救赎性的和谐、爱的和谐和关系性的和谐探讨基督教和谐伦理的本质,指出贯穿基督教和谐伦理思想的主线是"关系性"或"相互关联性"。基督教的和谐伦理对于当代中国和谐社会的构建和和谐理论的完善具有深刻的启示。     

重建社会秩序的孔孟思想

孔孟思想的出发点是对社会人际关系的关注,建立社会秩序的目标是实现社会人际关系的和谐.孔孟持中庸世界观,不走极端,所以在个人和社会的关系方面并不简单强调某一方面,希望建立个人与社会的和谐关系.个人和社会、私和公、自己和他人之间发生矛盾以至冲突时,孔孟选择社会利益.孔孟非常重视社会秩序建立的途径,认为社会秩序建立的途径应该是礼.孟子从性善论出发,提出了心性理论,认为遵守"礼"是人的良知,是人类自发自觉的群体行为.社会管理者应该在做好表率的前提下,建立完善的社会教化机制,以发扬光大人所固有的"四端"之心,促进社会成员自发、自觉地遵守各种社会行为规范,从而协调个人与社会、自我与他人、私与公之间的关系,达到整个社会和谐的局面.     

和谐精神:人文奥运的基本精神

在"更快、更高、更强"的奥运主旋律中,内涵着厚重的人文精神。这种人文精神又可以归结为以心和、人和、天和为特征和指向的"和谐精神"。"人文奥运"是2008年北京奥运会三大理念中的核心和灵魂,而人文奥运的灵魂就是和谐精神。和谐、合力、和衷共济、和而不同的"和谐精神"是人文奥运的基本精神,和谐是奥林匹克与中华文明的最佳结合点。     

和谐价值观:中国传统和谐思想的弘扬与发展

当代中国和谐价值观弘扬与发展了我国传统文化中的"天人合一"思想,追求人与自然的和谐;弘扬与发展了我国传统文化中的"和为贵"思想,追求人与人的和谐;弘扬与发展了我国传统文化中的"厚德载物"思想,追求人的自身的和谐;弘扬与发展了我国传统文化中的"民本"思想,追求国泰民安、社会和谐。如果说中国传统文化的和谐思想只是一种理想目标追求,追求的只是一种片面和谐、局部和谐、静态和谐,那么,当代中国的和谐价值观则走向了现实价值追求,追求全面和谐、整体和谐、动态和谐。     

A funny thing happened on the way to the journal: a commentary on Foucault's ethics and Stuart Murray's "Care of the self"

Stuart Murray's 'Care and the self: biotechnology, reproduction, and the good life' utilizes Foucault's "care of the self" to examine health domains in its title. The present author discusses three important articulations of concern with the Foucauldian concepts of care of the self that are absent in the work of Murray and others: first, the voluntarism and individualism inherent in ideas about care of the self; second, the absence of the interactional and relational; and, third, the perpetuation of the interpretation of Foucault's concept of governmentality, 'the conduct of conduct', as primarily coercive.     

Social contract theory and just decision making: lessons from genetic testing for the BRCA mutations

Decisions about funding health services are crucial to controlling costs in health care insurance plans, yet they encounter serious challenges from intellectual property protection--e.g., patents--of health care services. Using Myriad Genetics' commercial genetic susceptibility test for hereditary breast cancer (BRCA testing) in the context of the Canadian health insurance system as a case study, this paper applies concepts from social contract theory to help develop more just and rational approaches to health care decision making. Specifically, Daniel's and Sabin's "accountability for reasonableness" is compared to broader notions of public consultation, demonstrating that expert assessments in specific decisions must be transparent and accountable and supplemented by public consultation.     

Understanding the dynamics of the patient-physician relationship: balancing the fiduciary and stewardship roles of physicians

There has been growing concern about the effects on the patient–physician relationship of the increasing demands on physicians to balance their fiduciary and stewardship responsibilities, what has been called double agency. Various authors have proposed ways to restore patient centeredness to the patient–physician interaction. We have previously discussed the need to establish a patient–physician alliance to achieve this aim and to facilitate achieving this balance in mutual understanding. In this essay, we examine six concepts derived by Michael Balint from research seminars with primary care physicians. These six concepts are (a) the basic fault; (b) the physician's apostolic function; (c) the mutual investment company; (d) the drug doctor; (e) the deeper diagnosis; and (f) the conspiracy of anonymity. We believe these six concepts describe basic forces that shape the patient–physician relationship and allow for the development of an alliance between patients and physicians that can help preserve the essentials of the relationship.     

Naming practices and the acquisition of key biological concepts: evidence from English and Indonesian

Children's acquisition of fundamental biological concepts (living thing, animal, plant) is shaped by the way these concepts are named. In English, but not Indonesian, the name "animal" is polysemous: One sense includes all animate objects, and the other excludes humans. Because names highlight object categories, if the same name ("animal") points to two different, hierarchically related biological concepts, children should have difficulty settling on the scope of that term and its close neighbors (e.g., "alive"). Experiments with 4- to 9-year-old English- and Indonesian-speaking children revealed that "alive" poses unique interpretive challenges, especially for English-speaking children. When asked to identify entities that are "alive," older Indonesian-speaking children selected both plants and animals, but their English-speaking counterparts tended to exclude plants, which suggests that they may have misaligned "alive" with one of the "animal" senses. This work underscores the importance of considering language and cultural factors in studying the acquisition of fundamental concepts about the biological world.     

Influence of Maternal Denomination, God Concepts, and Child-Rearing Practices on Young Children's God Concepts

This study tests a model of individual differences in God concepts among kindergarteners, based on social learning and projection theory. Relations among maternal education, religious denomination, God concepts, child-rearing practices, and young children's God concepts were examined. Subjects were 363 Dutch preschoolers (mean age = 66 months) and 271 of their mothers belonging to three religious denominations (open Christian, orthodox Christian, and nonaffiliated). Child-rearing practices as well as God concepts were measured using questionnaires. God concepts were operationalized as ideas about potential characteristics of God. The model was partly supported. Maternal orthodox Christian denomination, God concepts, and child-rearing practices all had effects on children's "potent God" concept, confirming all parts of the model. Differences in children's "punishing God" concept were explained by strict child-rearing practices, providing evidence for projection theory only. Children's "loving and caring God" concepts were predicted by mothers'"loving God" concept, lending support for social learning theory .     

Institutional identity, integrity, and conscience

Bioethics has focused on the areas of individual ethical choices -- patient care -- or public policy and law. There are however, important arenas for ethical choices that have been overlooked. Health care is populated with intermediate arenas such as hospitals, nursing homes, hospices, and health care systems. This essay argues that bioethics needs to develop a language and concepts for institutional ethics. A first step in this direction is to think about institutional conscience.     

Understanding the relations between different forms of racial prejudice: a cognitive consistency perspective

Research on racial prejudice is currently characterized by the existence of diverse concepts (e.g., implicit prejudice, old-fashioned racism, modern racism, aversive racism) that are not well integrated from a general perspective. The present article proposes an integrative framework for these concepts employing a cognitive consistency perspective. Specifically, it is argued that the reliance on immediate affective reactions toward racial minority groups in evaluative judgments about these groups depends on the consistency of this evaluation with other relevant beliefs pertaining to central components of old-fashioned, modern, and aversive forms of prejudice. A central prediction of the proposed framework is that the relation between "implicit" and "explicit" prejudice should be moderated by the interaction of egalitarianism-related, nonprejudicial goals and perceptions of discrimination. This prediction was confirmed in a series of three studies. Implications for research on prejudice are discussed.     

Theoretical inference and the new psychoanalytic theories of infancy.

Psychoanalytic developmental theory has been profoundly influenced by recent observational research on infants. Although it is commonly held that these new data refute earlier theories of infancy, an examination of the evidence indicates otherwise. Much of the disagreement between the two is based on differences over the definition of such concepts as "self" and "self/other differentiation" and over strategies of theoretical inference. Inferences about the subjective experience of infants are best viewed as theoretical postulates rather than empirical statements or metaphors.     

Possessing Moral Concepts

Moral discourse allows for speakers to disagree in many ways: about right and wrong acts, about moral theory, about the rational and conative significance of moral failings. Yet speakers’ eccentricities do not prevent them from engaging in moral conversation or from having (genuine, not equivocal) moral disagreement. Thus differences between speakers are compatible with possession of moral concepts. This paper examines various kinds of moral disagreements and argues that they provide evidence against conceptual-role and informational atomist approaches to understanding our moral concepts. Conceptual role approaches fail because they cannot account for shared concepts among speakers with different commitments to the practical and conative ramifications of moral judgments. Informational atomist views fail because speakers need not be locked on to the same moral properties to share moral concepts.

Seeking an ethical and legal way of procuring transplantable organs from the dying without further attempts to redefine human death

Because complex organs taken from unequivocally dead people are not suitable for transplantation, human death has been redefined so that it can be certified at some earlier stage in the dying process and thereby make viable organs available without legal problems. Redefinitions based on concepts of "brain death" have underpinned transplant practice for many years although those concepts have never found universal philosophical acceptance. Neither is there consensus about the clinical tests which have been held sufficient to diagnose the irreversible cessation of all brain function – or as much of it as is deemed relevant – while the body remains alive.
