An Evaluation of the Core Controversies in Contemporary Western Human Rights Theory——A Study Based on the Examination of the Criterion of Fidelity to Practice

The development of theories on human rights with Chinese characteristics and China’s engagement in global human rights governance cannot be separated from attention to contemporary Western human rights theory.The debate between naturalistic and political conceptions of human rights has a long history,but discussions on the basic criteria for evaluating human rights theories have been insufficient.This article,focusing on the criterion of fidelity to practice,attempts to identify the development trajectory and direction of human rights theory.The universal claims of naturalistic human rights perspectives and the human rights catalog they propose have been criticized for deviating from practice.On the other hand,political conceptions of human rights,while emphasizing domestic human rights practices,have been criticized for their occasional nature and perceived loss of criticality.The broad-way practice theory seeks a third way that goes beyond the divide between these two perspectives.On the one hand,the theory itself faces limitations and the need for reshaping,while on the other hand,the traditional singular practice theory is also undergoing self-renewal.It can be said that the“internal critique”of contemporary Western human rights theory is already underway and will continue.

Inheritance and Innovation of Xi Jinping’s Theory and Practice of Opening Up

Adherence to China’s fundamental national policy of opening up is the only means of developing socialism that incorporates Chinese characteristics.General Secretary Xi Jinping has proposed the construction of a global community with a shared future,explaining the conceptual significance of engaging with the outside world.He has emphasized the importance of following the path of peaceful development and abiding by a mutually beneficial win-win strategy to unlock the country.He has postulated the Belt and Road Initiative and sought international cooperation,laying a robust material foundation to promote increasingly accessible relations between China and other nations worldwide.He has further illuminated the practical value of opening up.Xi Jinping’s conception of opening up represents the inheritance and innovation of a theory of world history and the conceptual and functional significance of unlocking the nation in the manner of Marx,Engels,and Deng Xiaoping.China’s strategy of opening up in the new era is marked by the idea of harmony but not uniformity.This policy was founded on innovation and development,based on China’s achievements through 40 years of reform.

Relative Universality of Human Rights: Theory and Practice

Introduction After the birth of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights （UDHR）, ＂universal human rights＂ became a novel formal legal term both in the field of jurisprudence and in the international community. The notion of ＂universal human rights＂ indicates the ideal of ＂all human rights for all.＂ As the provision in Article 2 of the UDHR stated： ＂Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, color, sex, language, religion, politi cal or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.＂ However, some nonWestern govern ment officials and intellectuals have expressed doubts about the justifi ability of the term, which seems only to be a reflection of unique Western culture rather than Asian or Arabian ones. At the Vienna World Human Rights Conference, many heads of state said that universal human rights cannot be compatible with nonWest em culture. Even Lee Kuan Yew, the former leader of Singapore, declared in 1996： ＂Asian values are universal values. European values are European values.＇＇~ This statement is obviously a rejection of the idea that human rights are universal. In contrast, universal rights extremists and human rights activists and NGOs, such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, try to propagandize unified international human rights standards and international human rights re gimes. The debate continues from the diplomatic field to the academic field. But, in the foreseeable future,

“Tasks”versus“Disciplines”:The Comprehensive Surveys of Natural Resources by the Chinese Academy of Sciences,and the Politics of Science Policy in the People’s Republic of China

As soon as the Chinese Academy of Sciences(CAS)was founded by the new government of the People’s Republic of China in 1949,the principles of“linking theory with practice”and“conducting research to serve the people”set the framework for its scientific studies.How to balance their obligations to facilitate national economic construction with their desires to advance disciplinary scientific developments posed a knotty problem that frustrated those who organized and engaged in scientific research across the country,and in the CAS in particular.Against this background,the slogan“let tasks lead disciplines”was proposed as an effective solution.However,how exactly to put this into practice became a pressing issue,as CAS scientists and scholars debated the relationship between tasks and advances within scientific disciplines.This paper examines these debates as they were carried out in the case of the comprehensive surveys of natural resources organized by the CAS,focusing especially on different understandings of the relationship between“tasks”and“disciplines”within the CAS in the early 1960s,and examining the impact and legacy of“letting tasks lead disciplinary developments,”with possible lessons for the formulation of scientific plans today.

A Brief History of the Development of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine

This article introduces the history of the integration of Chinese and Western medicine,from Zhang Xichun,a representative of the Huitong School of Chinese and Western Medicine,and the historical"abolition of traditional Chinese medicine",and"the scientificization of Chinese medicine"to"Integration of traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine",passing the tortuous development.The integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine has achieved fruitful results from the intense divergence in understanding to education,scientific research,clinical practice,and theoretical research.This article discusses the development process of the integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine in detail from multiple dimensions such as history,reality,theory,and practice.In particular,it introduces Zhang Xichun's views and practice of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine,the theory and practice of modern integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine,the main achievements of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine,and typical cases of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine.It provides reference for the vast number of integrated Chinese and Western medicine workers.

本文论述语言学理论与实践之间的关系。 文章首先追溯了语言学的起源,指出无论在其创建时,还是在其发展的过程中,语言学都与包括语言教学在内的各项实践活动密切相关。近年来,语言学的应用范围又扩大到了更多的领域:除了语言教学(包括本族语的教学与外国语的教学),它还涉及到了语言矫治(语言病态的诊断与矫正、治疗)、社会政策(语言活动的组织与规划)和计算机技术(机器翻译与人工智能)等各个方面。 文章接着强调指出,运用语言学理论解决以上种种实际问题需要对语言的各个方面作深入的研究,探索语言是如何形成作用的,语言是如何使用的,语言是如何学会的,语言是如何发生变异的,语言是如何发挥效用的,语言是如何传递文化的,等等。 结论是:应用语言学理论应当能够全面、完整地解释各种语言现象;而要做到这一点,这个理论就须是功能主义的,就须建立在意义的,而不是形式的基础上。

The history and development of the theory and practice of cybercartography

This paper describes the development of cybercartography since the introduction of the term in 1997.Although the origins of cybercartography were largely conceptual in nature,the evolution of cybercartography to date has been an iterative process reflecting the creative interplay between theory and practice.A major step forward was made in 2002 when the Geomatics and Cartographic Research Centre at Carleton University received a$2.5 million grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada to explore the utility of cybercartography to what was described as the New Economy.By 2006,the interaction between theory and practice had led to considerable advances in cybercartography as a holistic,location-based concept and two new cybercartographic products,the Cybercartographic Atlas of Antarctica and the Cybercartographic Atlas of Canada’s Trade with the World,were produced.Between 2006 and 2009,cybercartography was further developed as a result of interaction with indigenous communities,especially in Canada’s north and new interactive atlases such as the Kitikmeot Place Names Atlas and the Community Atlas of Arctic Bay were created in cooperation with the communities involved.The Nunaliit Cybercartographic Atlas Framework,built using open source software and open specifications and standards,was developed to facilitate direct input to these atlases.Cybercartography is now entering a new phase in both theory and practice building on a recently completed prototype atlas of Indigenous Perspectives and Knowledge.

THEORY AND PRACTICE ON DETERMINATION OF DEEP LEVEL PROFILES IN MULTIHIGH-DENSITY-LEVEL CASE

This work is an improvement of the theory proposed by Qin Guogang and C. T. Sah for determination of deep level profiles in the multi-level ease. The previous theory cannot be applied to the ease when a level whose density is comparable to the carrier density exists between the Fermi level and the deep level under study or when the deep level under study locates near the middle of the forbidden gap. The present work has overcome those restrictions so that it is applicable to more general cases. For the proton-implanted CZ-Si sample, the density profile of E(0.22), second acceptor level of divacancies, has been calculated in the presence of highly concentrated oxygen-vacancy level E(0.15) and has been compared with the profile of the same level E(0.22) calculated without considering the existence of E(0.15).

Disaster Mitigation Theory and Practice in China

During recent ten years, many serious disasters were prevented and reduced by Chinese people and Government. The mechanism of Chinese disaster prevention and reduction was summarized in this paper. 24 years ago, author presented modern theory of disaster prevention and reduction in China firstly. A lot of work was done by Chinese people and scientists. For example, presented strategic suggestion; promoted "China Center of Disaster Reduction"; finished "National Report" and "China Plan on Disaster Reduction" and "China Decade Report" etc. As other part of practice, a series of modern scientific and technologic systems or setup were established or developed. For example, "Synthetic Scientific System of Atmosphere Hydrosphere Disaster Reduction" (SSSAHDR) obtained greatly successes reducing losses about 200 million US$; and it promotes to establish "China Center of Disaster Reduction" and larger step of "China Modern Setup of Disaster Prevention and Reduction" was presented and so on. It is very clear that above theory and practice of disaster prevention and reduction are important and useful for Chinese works on disaster reduction; and it may be a reference for other countries, specially for developing countries. China is in the crossing region of two great hazard belts in the world, and it’s natural hazards frequently strike and cause heavy damage. So, China is one of the few countries where natural hazards strike frequently and make serious damage. During recent ten years (1989-1998), the middle value of all direct economic losses of natural disasters in China are 157.8 billion yuan RMB a year. It is about 2.6%～6.1% General National Production (GNP) of China, the middle loss value of GNP is 3.8% which is very high, it is about ten times than advancing countries. The maximum of economic losses is 300.7 billion yuan RMB in 1998, because great flood struck our country in this year. So, disaster prevention and reduction are very important task in China which is in relation closely with national economic development.

The Relation between Early Childhood Teachers’ Conceptualization of “Play” and Their Practice:Implication for the Process of Learning to Teach

For centuries,educators and psychologists have advocated“play”as the ideal activity for the development of young children.Actually,play has been found currently to be the central pedagogy in the learning of young children in 21 countries in the world.However,the quality of play-based pedagogy is becoming a key concern across countries.Scholars found that play is either too loosely framed to result in children’s optimal development;or it is too“teacherly”and looses the essence of play.The recent report released by OECD highlighted its concern about play in early childhood education and,urged international researchers and educators to make efforts to bridge the gap.Hong Kong is not an exception on the issue of play enactment.Though resources have been put in for the professional upgrading of early education teachers in the last two decades,the learning and teaching style is still didactic and there appears to be a misinterpretation of play-based pedagogy.The present paper attempts to explore the issue through early childhood teachers’conceptualization of“learning and teaching through play”with the aim of understanding the problem and shedding light for better ways to prepare teachers in this sector.
