高校智库服务决策的模式构建与高质量发展——基于知识生产模式转型的视角

高校智库服务决策本质上是一种知识生产活动。知识生产模式转型背景下,高校智库服务决策的内涵更加丰富,目标情境、参与主体、研究范式、评价方式等不断变化,展现出诸多新特征。本研究通过对高校智库服务决策特征变化的分析,构建了高校智库服务决策的三种模式:学科中心学术情境下“学—政”互动的专家模式、跨学科应用情境下“智—政”互动的平台模式和超学科适应情境下多边互动的开放模式。在这三种模式演进和共生发展情境下,提出高校智库服务决策实现高质量发展的四条进路:树立符合国家需求与公共利益的服务决策理念,创新多边互动的服务决策组织形式,构建多层次的服务决策研究范式,建立开放多元的服务决策评价体系。

古为今用——李乃庆先生访谈录

章太炎对法家与法治思想的现代阐释

晚清以来,面对国内外社会政治发展态势,章太炎率先擎起法家的大旗,开启现代法家研究之先声。章太炎对法家历史的祛魅为研究法家思想提供了契机,在还原法家历史时,他重新廓清法家学派与法家思想的概念及其联系,并融合儒、法思想以重建法家的价值体系。面对西方文化与政治制度的冲击,章太炎主张从传统思想文化中汲取养分,强调因循传统和习俗来制定法律,镜鉴西方法治思想以熔铸中国的法治精神,并通过法家“著述定律”、法吏“听事任职”实践这一法治理想。虽然章太炎的法治建国思想含有颇多理想化成分,但他在法律准则的制定、法学学科的设置、法吏建设等方面的理念为现代法治建设提供了新的思考,他所倡导的法治精神也直接推动了现代法学研究的新探索。

中华孝文化作为中华民族共同的文化纽带,是中华儿女的立身之本、齐家之宝、治国之道,对其进行创造性转化和创新性发展是提升个人修养、维护家庭和睦、促进社会和谐、助推强国建设的重要举措,也是在新时代继承和弘扬孝文化的必由之路。在系统梳理孝文化演变历程、发展脉络基础上,理解孝文化的时代局限性,推导出对其进行创造性转化和创新性发展的历史必然性。实现孝文化“两创”应坚持以马克思主义为指导,坚持去粗取精、去伪存真,坚持古为今用、推陈出新,依托数字化手段,更新孝文化观念,强化孝文化教育,发展孝文化产业,推动孝文化传播,使孝文化真正为人民服务,为社会主义现代化建设服务。

晚清“中体西用”育人模式中现代美育观的发轫研究

当代中国的美育观念并非原生于中国学界,它发轫于中国近现代学校教育体系建设的早期发展阶段,在中国传统文教观念与乐教思想的现代转语中,在适应新的教育体系和接续民族艺术精神的化合中,逐渐被赋义充盈起来。在西学之风较盛的清末民初,学校的学科教育为美育落地提供了土壤。民国初期,具有西学视野的知识分子继续深化调和中西两种教育资源,艺术教育成为中西教育理念相遇时接续民族艺术精神的阵地,中国传统艺术的精髓成为现当代美育的思想基石。在现代学校教育的框架内,艺术教育最终作为有效培育核心素养的路径被确定在学制中。

新编历史剧创作对传统史剧观的突破

传统史剧观遵循“历史真实”和“古为今用”两大原则,在历史剧创作中影响深远。“历史真实”原则束缚了创作主体的发挥,造成创作手法的单一。“古为今用”原则导致历史剧创作的主题内涵比较狭隘,限制历史剧艺术的发展。20世纪80年代以来,传统史剧观的“古为今用”原则在表现知识分子复杂内心世界中被成功突围,作家的主体意识在系列新编历史文人史剧中彰显出来,历史剧创作主题向文化、人性、审美多维度展开。郭启宏的“传神史剧论”与大量表现复杂人性的历史剧突破了传统史剧观下人物塑造的“二元对立”模式,使人物形象走向复杂人性的刻画与深层心理的挖掘。罗怀臻的新史剧观认为,历史的虚构和假设也可以作为历史剧创作的素材和依托,由此开辟寓言史剧创作的新路径。
