    Culture Reproduction and Social Reproduction: An Illustration of Bourdieus Sociology of Education
    ZHU Guo-Hua
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2015, 47 (5): 173-189.   DOI: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000--5579.2015.05.018

    As a theory of symbolic violence, Bourdieus sociology of education is based on the theoretical hypothesis of culture arbitrariness. Its main point is that the secret purpose of culture reproduction is to push social reproduction. Through the concepts of teaching activities, teaching authority, education work and education system as well as their logical connections, we can grasp the internal texture of Bourdieus sociology of education. The nature of education in each stage is related to its location in social space. The education system justifies social divisions by transforming social divisions into academic divisions. The education system monopolizes special capital, mainly the production, distribution and transferring of diplomas, and exerts symbolic violence to the society. The field of power penetrates deeply into the field of education and further threatens educational autonomy. Bourdieus sociology of education and its experimental research arouses heated debates and is worth further considering.

    Although, the new ideas of the drug rehabilitation have been established in the Drug Law, but there are some problems in the compulsive isolated drug rehabilitation, such as the compulsive isolated drug abuse treatment place in the charge of the public security department do not help the clients, and the drug abuse treatment assumed partly by the public security department and the Justice Bureau type is resource-wasting, and the drug rehabilitation organ evaluating its own is unfair, and the facilities in the drug rehabilitation places is not enough for its goal, etc..

Secondly, the place increases the medical conditions and other facilities. Thirdly, the government build the third-part drug test authority.

    The big challenge that Chinese multinationals face is how to build a global brand when they have already expanded their business on a global scale. For the enterprises, it is an important brand strategy to give consideration to Chinese and Western cultural differences and to blend the values and elements of the two cultures to build the global orientation of Chinese brands. With theoretical and practical analyses, this thesis elaborates on the important strategy of Chinese leading companies, that is, embedding Chinese cultural elements in the product design. This strategy has been successfully applied by Li-Ning since 1999. Chinese leading companies can learn more from Li’s practice in enhancing their value-added brand image in the world.

    The Retrospect of Contemporary Linguistic Theories
    Bao-jia LI
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosophy and Social Sciences)    2021, 53 (6): 77-95.   DOI: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2021.06.008

    Western semantics history could be summarized as historical orientation, psychological orientation and contextual orientation. In other words, Western semantics of the 19th century has been successively overlapped with biology, psychology and sociology. All “new theories” in modern times we are worshipping, including psychology, subjectivity, sociality, form and function, statics and dynamics, context and situation, metaphor and metonymy, and meaning domain and prototype theory, are beneath previous masterpieces. Owing to the three trends of formalism in the 20th century, three cracks formed in Western humanistic view of language. Not until the 1960s, did a return to traditional humanistic view of language in contemporary Western linguistic study emerge. Based on dozens of previous original works of German, French, English and Russian languages, this paper traces the origins of these “new theories” in order to promote the research of the linguistic and intellectual history.

    The Theme of Han Yu’s “Preface of Seeing off Li Yuan, Who Is Returning to Pangu”: Analysis and Correction
    Shao Ming-zhen

    As a masterpiece in the history of ancient Chinese essays, Han Yu’s “Preface of Seeing off Li Yuan, Who Is Returning to Pangu” has been always highly evaluated. It is believed that its theme is to praise hermits’ pleasure of living in mountain and forests, satirize arrogant people of higher status as well as those who shamelessly serve them and abandon themselves to power and money. However, a careful reading of the “Preface”, together with an examination in the context of Han Yu’s thoughts and life, shows that the common understanding of the essay is improper. In other words, “praising” and “revealing” are not Han Yu’s real intention.

    Do Chinese Elements Matter?: Consumer Evaluation on the Localized Adaption Strategy for Global Brands from the Perspective of Stereotype Consistency
    HE Jia-xun, WU Yi & XIE Run-qi
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2014, 46 (5): 131-145.  
    Abstract1264)   HTML214)    PDF(pc) (2395KB)(3812)       Save
    With the ever enhancing of China’s soft power in the world, the adoption of Chinese elements has been popularly practiced by numerous global brands as a localized adaptation strategy, the consumer attitudes towards which has seldom been studied. Taking six global brands’ real products from three categories as study objects, this thesis adopts the construct of stereotype consistency and collects data by survey from Chinese consumers in Shanghai to explore how Chinese elements used in global brands’ product adaptation strategy affect consumer attitudes. By applying total effect moderation model to integrate the variables of brand local iconness and global identity/local identity altogether and probe into their mediation and moderation effects respectively, this thesis addresses several key findings. Firstly, the stereotype consistency of Chinese elements positively affects brand local iconness and product purchase likelihood. Secondly, brand local iconness partially mediates the relationship between stereotype consistency and product purchase likelihood. Finally, consumer cultural identity (global identity vs. local identity) plays a moderating role in the process above. These findings make innovative theoretical contributions to interpreting the influence mechanism of Chinese elements on consumer attitudes, initiating empirical study on Chinese elements and providing global brands with suggestion on effective utilization of Chinese elements. In general, to improve consumer attitudes, the marketers of global brands shall understand thoroughly the true meanings and essences of local cultural elements and integrate them into the brands in a way as consistent to the stereotypes as possible. Notably, this adaptation strategy shall be adjusted to market segmentation with different cultural identity

    Cold War History Studies in the English Academic World in Recent Twenty Years:Retrospect,Critique and Prospects

    Three correlative traits stand out in the Cold War history studies in the English world in the first 20 years of the 21st Century. First, with the “decentration” in the Cold War studies, the relationship between the Cold War and the Third World becomes a hotspot issue. Second, renewed attention is paid to the Cold War history in Europe, putting Europe in the central place rather than treating it as an object in great-power confrontation. Third, there are still lots of influential works on U.S.-Soviet Cold War History, in particular, on the peaceful end of the Cold War. Although scholars continue to debate on some of the very basic issues regarding the Cold War, Cold War studies will be an eternal field of inquiry. It will be remembered and studied like such historical events as World War I and World War II.

    On the Differentiation of Housing Price to Income Ratio in Chinese Cities
    DING Zu-yu
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2013, 45 (3): 121-127.  
    Abstract1454)   HTML414)    PDF(pc) (908KB)(3641)       Save
    As an important index that measures whether the housing price matches people’s income, housing price to income ratio has strong regional characteristics. The housing price to income ratio varies in China’s different cities. This thesis uses the rank-size analysis method to study the major trends of housing price to income ratio of 287 Chinese cities from 2006 to 2010, and then uses the principal component analysis and cluster analysis methods to divide Chinese Cities into five types and analyzes the detail of this ratio in each type city. The result shows that: (1) The differentiation of housing price to income ratio in Chinese Cities shows a trend of expansion from 2006 to 2010, and big cities’ ratios rose more obviously. (2) From the first-tier cities to the fourth tier cities, housing price to income ratio showed a downward trend; (3) Resource-based cities’ housing price to income ratio was between the third-tier cities and fourth-tier cities. (4) Regression analysis shows that urbanization rate had positive influences on housing price to income ratio, but GDP had weak positive influence.

    “Home”, “Nation”, “Manchu” and “Han”: On the Abdication of the Qing Emperor and the Big Compromise in 1912
    SHEN Jie
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2014, 46 (3): 41-50.  
    Abstract962)   HTML5)    PDF(pc) (932KB)(3426)       Save
    The abdication of the Qing Emperor and the Big Compromise in 1912 was a dramatic change in China’s political culture, not only because it represents the transformation from a monarchy to a republic, but also because the compromise, to some extent, updated the “shifts of dynasties” in the traditional sense. In China’s political history, revolutions had been always cruel, in which “emperors died for the nation; officials died for the territory; literati died for the institutions”. “Death” has become a political protocol. However, in 1912, they decided to compromise: the emperor rather granted the nation to the common people than died for it; it was unnecessary for officials and literati to die for the emperor, embracing the new institutions of the “republic”. In various entanglements of home, nation and ethnical groups, “adhesion to the feudalism” lost its rationality and value foundation, while it was an appropriate choice to “compromise”. Western revolutions and modern transitions were usually achieved in the spirit of contract. This kind of compromises guided by the contract spirit is rare in China’s traditional politics. Therefore, if we regard the compromise as a principle of the parliament and constitutionalism, the Big Compromise in 1912 has more specific significance in the sense that it at least terminated the imperialistic politics and culture formally and initiated the modern transformation of China’s politics.

    On Scholars′ Paintings:“Implication in Rock Paintings” for 700 Years from SU Shi to ZHENG Ban-qiao
    Zhong-yi XIA
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosophy and Social Sciences)    2022, 54 (5): 63-79.   DOI: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2022.05.007
    Abstract794)   HTML8)    PDF(pc) (1202KB)(3410)       Save

    In this paper, the “rock” (modeling element) in the traditional flower and bird paintings is aesthetically divided into two categories, that is, “implication in rock paintings” and “rock worship and pleasure” regarded as an instrumental symbol to mark the distinction between “scholars′ paintings” and “literati′s paintings”. This is significant in three aspects. First, from SU Shi of the Northern Song Dynasty to DONG Qi-chang of the Ming Dynasty, the paintings of men of letters that express their feelings and interests are known as “scholars′ paintings” and “literati′s paintings”. However, in the painting world after DONG Qi-chang, the title of “literati′s paintings” vaguely “cover” “scholars′ paintings”. The “implication in rock paintings” refined in this paper is to prove that “scholars′ paintings” are different from “literati′s paintings” because the former pays more attention to the artist′s moral feelings than the interest in brush and ink skills. Second, from the perspective of “implication in rock paintings”, the history of Chinese paintings from the Northern Song Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty can be divided into “scholars′ paintings” and “literati′s paintings”: the former from SU Shi to ZHENG Ban-qiao, and the latter from MI Fu to CHEN Hong-shou. This is the life roles of the ancient sages represented by rock paintings. Third, from the “Dongpo′s grotesque rock” and “Banqiao′s bamboo, orchid and rock” in the “implication in rock paintings”, we can not only know the ancient inheritance of exemplary persons′ poetry and philosophy, but also learn that the “rock” in the eyes of the worthy has not been a cold object in nature since ancient times, but a symbol of the spiritual foundation of the worthy when they deal with the turbid world.

    Towards Landscape Narrative: Modern Evolution of the Form and Function of Legends: A Case Study on Fahai Cave and Leifeng Tower
    YU Hong-yan
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2014, 46 (2): 110-117.  
    Abstract960)   HTML130)    PDF(pc) (689KB)(3359)       Save
    Landscape narrative is a narrative system comprised of many elements such as images, sculptures, billboards and tour guide manuals with legendary characters and plots as the premise and landscape buildings as the core. When the function of traditional oral narrative in modern society becomes weaker and weaker, landscapes undertake more and more narrative functions of narrating legends and inheriting legend values. This is a remarkable feature of modern folklore. The personage “Fahai” in the legend of the “White Snake” has been gradually transformed into the visual landscape “Fahai Cave”. The positive image of Fahai has been reconstructed, playing an active role in constructing regional politics and culture. The reconstructed Leifeng Tower extends the legend to real life surrounding the landscape by narrating systematically the legendary plots closely related to Leifeng Tower. This is a typical case that the legendary landscape surpasses the linguistic form. Today, folk legends are rather presented by landscapes than spread orally. In this way, the regional image is improved and local tourism is developed. Legends have become important resources of the cultural industry and regional politics. Behind this evolution, economic factors overwhelm moral factors and regional demands replace value demands.

    A Study on Marx’ Innovations of the Inflation Theory and Their Realistic Value
    ZHANG Chuan-Yong
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2011, 43 (4): 102-107.  
    Abstract3388)   HTML293)    PDF(pc) (363KB)(3260)       Save
    Compared to the classical quantity theory of money putting currency in circulation as the only factor to cause inflation, Marx believes that accelerating the velocity of money is one of the reasons leading to inflation, and distinguishing the changes in value of its currency by currency devaluation or a relative depreciation is a key to formulate policy of controlling inflation. From the recent situation, the endogenous theory of money supply is more in line with China's reality. Therefore, based on the logic of the endogenous money supply and causes of inflation, China's current basic idea of controlling inflation is setting the demand of money in circulation as the target, while strictly controlling money supply to match with demand, making the central bank play a fundamental role in controlling money, and supplementing with necessary administrative means.

    Kato Hiroyuki’s and Liang Qichao’s absorptions of Bluntchli’s theory of social organism had their own characteristics. Kato mainly focused on Bluntchli’s doctrine of sovereign rights of state as a legal institution and its implied idea of monarchical sovereignty. Liang was more concerned with Bluntchli’s views on essential laws of state’s formation, development and decline, based on his positivistic method of historical research. Their distinctive features reflected then different problems confronted by China and Japan and basic differences between their cultural traditions.

    Kang Youwei develops a theory of world political order in his Book of Great Unity in an age of competing among nation-states. He advocates a world state with great unity to go beyond the separation and conflict among nation-states. Zhao Tingyang echoes Kang Youwei to some degree in his project of tianxia system. A dialogue among Kang Youwei, Zhao Tingyang, Kant, Habermas and Thomas Pogge leads us to have a new understanding of the significance of a world state, which is “a discarded choice” in Kant.

    Embodied Consumption and Emotional Interaction:Chinese Radio Drama from the Perspective of Soundscape
    Xiao-ye HAN
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosophy and Social Sciences)    2023, 55 (6): 26-35.   DOI: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2023.06.003

    Radio drama, also known as “drama to be enjoyed with ears”, has gone through an evolution from boom to bust in the changes of media. However, in the era of mobile Internet, it has realized a new development through the momentum of media integration. Nowadays, the rise of Internet radio drama has improved the interactivity and immersion of the audience’s listening experience. As a sound art of “accompanying audio”, “embodied consumption” and “emotional interaction”, it constructs a unique “soundscape”. In the process of “auditory turn”, the audience obtains emotional recognition and extends it in the virtual space, replacing “body” with “embodiment”. In this context, radio drama not only needs to pay attention to “what sound”, but also to “how to listen”, and then to the “sound needs” of different groups of people. Moreover, we need to pay attention not only to the construction of soundscape, but also to the significance of soundscape to the shaping of life and life community.

    From the “Immigrant Stories” to Regional Identity: The Formation of the Ming- Qing States
    ZHAO Shi-Yu
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2015, 47 (4): 1-10.   DOI: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2015.04.001

    There have been heated discussions around the topic of identity in different disciplines in recent years. Concerning the study of history, particular attention has been paid to the discussion on “new History of the Qing Dynasty”, as well as the dispute on the special issue of James Watson in the America-based Modern China, which are directly related to the stress on the diversification and the inquiries into the mechanism of unification in the China studies at home and aboard. The immigrant stories could be a breakthrough point for the discussion on the regional identity. They were important representation of the development of regional identity, namely, the formation of Ming-Qing states from the 16th to 18th centuries. However, both the discussion on identity and the analysis of the formation of Ming-Qing states should be put in a concrete historical context and a spatio-temporal process.

    A despotic Rousseau or a liberal Rousseau?
    Liu Shi-gong
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2014, 46 (1): 40-46.  
    Abstract950)   HTML13)    PDF(pc) (456KB)(2997)       Save
    The classical liberalists such as Edmund Burke and Constant de Rebecque usually magnify the difference of John Locke and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, regarding Locke as one of the founders of liberalism and Rousseau as an advocate of despotism. This is a serious misunderstanding for Rousseau’s political philosophy, for they do not interpret The Social Contract as a whole, but just understand it by twos and threes. Actually, if we read the book carefully faithfully, we will find that Rousseau also recognize human rights and guard against the dangers of government’s usurping the sovereign. He not only defined strictly the concepts of general will, the whole body and sovereign which are misunderstood repeatedly, but also design some projects to confine the power of government so as to realize the general will.

    Religion, Society and Power——A Sociological Analysis of “the Market Theory of Religion”

    At the macro level, Stark’s market theory of religion not only analyzes religious phenomenon and religious activities, but also involves multiple and complex interactions among nation, religion, individual beliefs, society, politics and so on. Beyond these, the implicit analysis of the “churchstate relationship” deeply criticizes all disadvantages coming with religious regulations, which provides useful references and ideas for the management and development of religion in the current Chinese society.

    On the Secularization in the Development of the Worldly Buddhism
    TANG Zhong-mao
    Journal of East China Normal University (Philosoph    2013, 45 (6): 107-115.  
    Abstract848)   HTML11)    PDF(pc) (631KB)(2989)       Save
    The “worldly Buddhism”, first promoted by Taixu and then developed by Yinshun and Zhao Puchu et al, has become the mainstream in Chinese Buddhism and been taken as a pattern accustomed to modern society. However, the current development of the worldly Buddhism has engendered various arguments and doubts centered on “secularization”. This is due to the fact that the word “secularization” itself has various interpretations, and different observers hold different stances and apply the word “secularization” in different contexts. In talking about the “secularization” of Chinese Buddhism, some observers are confined in the Chinese historical context of Chinese Buddhism with ignorance of the grand backdrop provided by theories of modernity; some believe in some Western religious sociology while neglect the difference between Chinese Buddhism and Western religions; others insist that secularization and religion are opposite to each other. Hence, it is conducive to the theoretical construction of the worldly Buddhism and the future development of Chinese Buddhism to clarify the conceptual history of the word “secularization” and its different contexts, and further to analyze and clear up the “secularization” issue in the development of the worldly Buddhism.
