简论隋唐道德生活的特点

隋唐时期，中国历史走上了前所未有的辉煌，经济文化的发展与社会的稳定，对南北朝以来的道德生活的动荡进行了有力的调整，儒释道三教的鼎立与交融、民族大融合，使得道德生活表现出极大的融合性；而新的文化因素给中原固有文化注入了一股生气，使得隋唐的道德生活显示出独特的开放性；而统治者对自己信心的增强，在维护社会秩序、巩固政权的问题上，又反映出很大的开明性。     

罗钦顺哲学理气论与心性论关系再探讨

罗钦顺心性论对于心有两个向度的强调：一方面，虚灵、知觉、神识描述了一种作为认识功能的心；另一方面，心性体用这个思路描述了一种作为性体之现象的心。心如上两个层次的意义必然引发出两种不同的心性关系。其中，心性体用的关系和理气论中的理气一物较为融贯，而心性能所的关系则与此不太融贯。罗钦顺肯定没有像批评他的刘宗周、黄宗羲那样直接主张心与气的平行对应关系。不过，以朱子学作为衡量标准，罗钦顺的理气论与心性论之间没有明显的不统一。只能说罗钦顺哲学在心性论内部因为对心的定义有多层，心性关系并非形式上只有一层，这里会产生形式上的不一致。     

宗教公益信托:宗教组织进入社会服务领域的新模式

宗教组织与信徒介入和举办各种类型的社会公益事业,被认为是当代中国宗教达致与社会主义社会相适应目标之基本途径。但在现有政策框架下,宗教组织缺乏进入社会服务领域的渠道和途径。本文借鉴海外宗教公益信托的经验,拟对以公益信托方式支援我国宗教界进入社会服务领域的可行性与优势进行了初步探讨。     

近代日本佛教净土真宗东、西本愿寺派与中国西藏及藏传佛教的接触

从19世纪末开始,伴随着日本军国主义对中国侵略活动的深入,日本当局将其侵略、渗透的魔掌伸向我国西藏地区.其中日本佛教净土真宗东、西本愿寺派也参与其中,以到西藏"探险"、"求经"以及建立佛教联系等为名,从事了一系列渗透我国西藏的活动,为日本帝国主义的侵略体制服务,发挥了配合与协助侵略的作用.     

“国家神道”概念再考——以加藤玄智“国家神道”论为中心

"国家神道"作为近代日本兼具政治和宗教双重性质的国家意识形态,是驱使日本国民参与战争的有力思想武器。但是,近年来,部分保守派学者以《神道指令》为依据,企图歪曲"国家神道"概念,开脱战争责任,并以此对日本国宪法规定的"政教分离"原则进行历史性修正。然而,《神道指令》中"国家神道"一词的最早提出者--加藤玄智,其"国家神道"论,原本便包含着鼓吹"忠君爱目"精神的内容,爱国之精神,并从实质上赋予"国家神道"以日本"国教"的地位。     

对环境伦理学成立依据及其学科地位争论的考察

我国对环境伦理学的研究始于20世纪80年代初,最先是对西方的论著进行评介,随后展开独立的理论建构.因为"环境伦理学"/"生态伦理学"是一个全新的伦理学概念和理论体系,学界对这个概念的及其理论内容的认识还存在分歧,这种分歧导致了对环境伦理学学科地位、学科性质的争论.这种争论促进了环境伦理学研究在我国的发展.     

《释门正统》与《佛祖统纪》成书旨趣之差异再探

<释门正统>与<佛祖统纪>是两部由宋代天台宗人编写的佛教史书,在这两部史书里,以知礼大师作为十七祖的天台宗正统谱系开始正式建立起来;同时,围绕知礼大师祖师地位的确立问题,<正统>与<统纪>在成书旨趣上也体现出了重大差异:<正统>明显更为关注天台宗传承的延续性问题,<统纪>则更为强调了本宗思想领域内部秩序的统一.明了这种差异不仅有益于我们加深对这两部天台宗史书的理解,而且亦有益于我们在进行佛教思想史研究时,对天台宗的思想发展状况做出更为准确的判断和理解.本文即从知礼祖师地位的确立这一问题出发,对二书成书旨趣的差异再做一番探讨.     

Laboratory Replication of Scientific Discovery Processes

Fourteen subjects were tape-recorded while they undertook to find a law to summarize numerical data they were given. The source of the data was not identified, nor were the variables labeled semantically. Unknown to the subjects, the data were measurements of the distances of the planets from the sun and the periods of their revolutions about it—equivalent to the data used by Johannes Kepler to discover his third law of planetary motion. Four of the 14 subjects discovered the same law as Kepler did (the period varies as the 3/2 power of the distance), and a fifth came very close to the answer. The subiects' protocols provide a detailed picture of the problem-solving searches they engaged in, which were mainly, but not exclusively, in the space of possible functions for fitting the data, and provide explanations as to why some succeeded and the others failed. The search heuristics used by the subjects are similar to those embodied in the BACON program, computer simulation of certain scientific discovery processes. The experiment demonstrates the feasibility of examining some of the processes of scientific discovery by recreating, in the laboratory, discovery situations of substantial historical relevance. It demonstrates also, that under conditions rather similar to those of the original discoverer, a law can be rediscovered by persons of ordinary intelligence (i.e., the intelligence needed for academic success in a good university). The data for the successful subjects reveal no “creative” processes in this kind of a discovery situation different from those that are regularly observed in all kinds of problem-solving settings.     

The moderating role of interviewer's regulatory focus in the effectiveness of impression management tactics: Regulatory fit as a source of subjective value

Based on the recently explored regulatory fit effect in social contexts, the present research is the first to investigate the interaction between interviewer's regulatory focus and interviewee's impression management (IM) tactics. We hypothesized that assertive and defensive IM tactics would fit with interviewer's promotion and prevention focus, respectively, and that interviewer's experience of this regulatory fit would lead to enhanced interview evaluation. We conducted four studies in which the participants were asked to rate an interviewee after reading a list of the interviewee's IM-related behaviours or watching a videotaped interview. Additionally, the participant's regulatory focus was operationalized as both an induced situational state and a measured chronic trait. The results supported our hypotheses by showing a significant interaction of the interviewer's regulatory focus and the IM tactics on interview evaluation: the promotion-assertive and the prevention-defensive ratings were more positive than the prevention-assertive and the promotion-defensive ratings. Moreover, mediation analysis revealed that the interaction exerts its effects on interview evaluation by providing interviewers with an intrapersonal regulatory fit experience.
