The Population Migration and Economic Polarized Growth in Three Metropolitan Regions of East China Gui-xin WANG, Xin-ya MAO, Yi-na ZHANG 2006, 38 (5):  1-9.  doi: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2006.05.001 Abstract ( 2804 )   HTML ( 477 )   Save Mainly according to a growth pole theory and based on researches of features of Chinese inter - provincial migration since the opening up and reform, this paper makes an analysis of population migration's influence on the economic polarized growth in three metropolitan regions, and finds that population centralization there boosts economic polarized growth mainly through its stimulating quick developments of service industry. It is also found that because of an increasingly migration, the economic growth curve shows itself a monotonous rise quadratic. This indicates that the economic growth in the three metropolitan regions has entered a new and accelerating stage. However, the immigration emphasis has obviously transferred from the north to the south. That is to say, the spatial distribution model of immigration flow has changed spatial model on gradually from "throe poles" to "single pole". Therefore, the model should be changed and a new the three metropolitan regions' coexistence and mutual facilitation should be built up. Figures and Tables | References | Related Articles | Metrics

The Villager Self-governance: The Imbalance between Its Structure and Function Wen-ming ZHANG 2006, 38 (5):  24-31.  doi: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2006.05.005 Abstract ( 1769 )   HTML ( 5 )   Save For a long time most scholastic studies have been focusing on how the villager self-government affects changes of Chinese society; however, few scholars concern themselves with the question of how the village social structure works on the system of villager self-government.The village is a basic carrier of executions of villager self-governments so that its structural elements are directly related to success or failure of enforcing this system, and even related to stability of such a small society.Through a positive research on four villages in Northeast China, this paper points out that in a village system the functions of three structural elements such as state, village organization, villager are extremely imbalanced in enforcing the villager self-governance, which is a main reason to easily make it become a mere formality.Also if the functions of these three elements change violently, the village social system may be pushed into an extremely unstable situation so as to lose its harmony and balance.

An Analysis of Some Factors Affecting Women's Participation in the Village-level Election Rong HU, Kang HU, Xi-qing GUO 2006, 38 (5):  40-45.  doi: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2006.05.007 Abstract ( 1785 )   HTML ( 5 )   Save Through a comparative and analytical study of factors affecting women's participation in village-level elections, we find that women villagers' political participation in elections is quite inferior to men's in addition to their different ages, educational levels and political positions.This is caused by lower cultural qualities of rural residents as a whole.Besides a further promotion of villagers' self-governance, the elevation of rural women's political participation depends on an integral elevation of rural residents' cultural qualities, thus fundamentally changing women's subordinate status as a traditional gender role.

The Dimension of the Philosophy of Other in Confucius' Doctrine Hong-liang GU 2006, 38 (5):  46-50.  doi: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2006.05.008 Abstract ( 1708 )   HTML ( 3 )   Save A new hermeneutic horizon, which differs from the philosophy of subjectivity, can be displayed through an analysis of the Analects of Confucius in the context of the philosophy of the Other.The dimension of the philosophy of the Other exists in Confucius' philosophy.In a narrow sense, the Other has its own alterity.There are three patterns of the Other in the Analects, namely, friends and teachers that are recognized as the differential Other, parents that are recognized as the infinite Other, and sages that are recognized as the ideal Other.In the perspective of the philosophy of Other the relationship between"I" and "Other"is a basic mode of thought in the Analects of Confucius.

The Charm and Puzzle of Mysterious Speculation——A Reconsideration of Wang Bi's Metaphysical Learning Lan-fen LI 2006, 38 (5):  51-55.  doi: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2006.05.009 Abstract ( 1772 )   HTML ( 3 )   Save Wang Bi's mysterious metaphysical learning plays an indispensable role in the history of Chinese thoughts.When its characteristics and fate in the intellectual history are reconsidered, a serious problem has to be put forward for Chinese philosophy: whether a sort of completely abstract speculation is adaptive to the climate of humanistic concerns in the traditional Chinese thinking or not.In other words, whether an excessive pursuit of universal validity of thinking expressions by words will hurt concrete fulfillments of the thinking content?Wang Bi, indeed, brings about a double perplexity to Confucians who have to reinterpret in a universal sense the Confucianist spirit earnestly advocated and practiced by Confucius on the one hand, and specifically carry out the spirit in reality on the other hand, in their explaining and practicing Confucian ideals.

"Using Verses to Verify Historical Facts" and Complexity of Making Sure Historical Facts Geng-hua ZHANG 2006, 38 (5):  56-60.  doi: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2006.05.010 Abstract ( 1667 )   HTML ( 5 )   Save When using poetical verses to verify historical facts, people have to examine the value of poems as historical data from angles of time, human affairs and geographical locations.However, the nature of "poetry"tends to determine general historical facts to be obtained more easily and exactly when people use verses to verify them, while particular historical facts are difficult to be verified or are easily wrongly known.People's knowledge of histories may be false in fact if they overstate their verifications by verses.And when people use traditional Chinese literary, philosophical, or even historical books and writings to verify historical facts, the same thing may occur in various degrees.Therefore, it is quite complex and difficult to examine and confirm a historical fact.

The Metaphysical Dimension of Freedom——A Reunderstanding of Modern Rationalism Chao-xia ZHANG, Li LI 2006, 38 (5):  67-74.  doi: 10.16382/j.cnki.1000-5579.2006.05.012 Abstract ( 2321 )   HTML ( 3 )   Save Traditional textbooks on the history of philosophy have generalized modern philosophy as an epistemological philosophy.However, how to understand a metaphysical pursuit of modern rationalists in a pure epistemological frame? A profound problem met by rationalists is: how to insure freedom of human will at the same time of accepting a mechanistic world view?To solve the problem, both Spinoza and Leibniz choose to throw away absolute objectivity of space, debasing the extensional world into a phenomenal world presented to human knowledge which has just a kind of secondary objectivity.As a result, man is able to surpass the necessary chain of causality of the phenomenal world so as to arrive at true freedom.Finally, Kant exhibits this puzzlement, and efforts of Spinoza and Leibniz are realized in Kant's philosophy in a perfect way.

Approximately, such an idea could be divided into two patterns: contented and luxurious. It had a tendency to spread, strengthen and extend, which was also shown in the poetry. From the idea of pursuing pleasure - a new angle of view, we may see a new world in the Han- dynasty poetry. References | Related Articles | Metrics

Till the prosperous period of Tang Dynasty, it added to other two meanings, namely, "vast desert" and "pool on the top of the Tianshan Mountain" (Heavenly Lake). During the period ruled by Empress Wu Zetian of the Tang Dynasty, the Huihe (an ancient Chinese tribe), whose headman held the post of military govemor of Hanhai, migrated westwards so that Hanhai gradually became a substitute name for the westem desert. Subsequently, the Hanhai army stationed at Tingzhou, which related Hanhai to the western region. Under the Yuan Dynasty the Hang' aishan Mountain was named as Hanhai by local Huihe residents, because the Hanhai military prefecture of Tang Dynasty had ever been established there. And during the period of Ming- Qing dynasties, Hanhai became a special name of desert. References | Related Articles | Metrics
