“社会”与Society的中英语义差别对比分析

翻译过程中,中英文同一组词的语义不对等问题引起语义学者兴趣,而高频互译的“社会”与society这组词在译者与读者视角下语义对等性极强,由此语义差别研究较少且研究空间较大。该文研究该组词的字典释义,对比探究两者的语义不对等性,归纳语义差别背后原因。研究发现,“社会”和society存在语义不对等;“社会”一词包含“社交”和“公共”两大含义,而society一词对应其中“社交”之意,表现出一定的不对等性。

Combinations of Transportation Policies to Promote BRT Usage Using Artificial Society Model

Various transportation systems have been developed in recent years.In this study,an artificial society model is developed to examine the combination of transportation policies in urban areas.In this model,each trip maker selects the primary and terminal transportation modes.An artificial society model is applied to the southeastern region of Osaka City,Japan.The effects of introducing BRT(bus rapid transit,primary transportation)and on-demand buses(terminal transportation)are investigated.The results confirm that BRT is used by a certain number of users.An increase in the use of BRT will increase the amount of walking,thus resulting in a healthy city.However,on-demand buses are rarely used as terminal transportation.Additionally,the development of bicycle parking stations near BRT stops is shown to be effective in the northern section of the BRT route.

Hunger is a physiological need,but the production and consumption of adequate and balanced food is a function of social forces.At every point,social,political,and economic processes intervene,for better or(more common)for worse.Food is one fundamental need of human beings for survival.But in Nigeria there is widespread food shortage and hunger.Development scholars have put forward reasons why poverty,hunger persists in the country,from the platitudes about population growth,inadequate implementation of agricultural policies,and neglect of agriculture,bad leadership,corruption,and the issue of distribution.Nigeria is richly blessed with arable land and citizens eager to unlock its food potentials.Unfortunately,this is far from being realized as the country depends on foreign countries for food,a situation that is tragic and sad.She spends about$10 billion a year importing food and agricultural products,the majority of which are wheat,rice,poultry,fish,and consumer-oriented foods.The pressure on the exchange rate results in devaluation-triggered inflation and food costs that fly up beyond the grasp of people at the bottom of the ladder as it is now is one of the negative repercussions of high food importation bills.Examining the effects of hunger is one of this paper’s key concerns and goals,and anger crisis for achieving sustainable development in the country using the Frustration-Aggression Theory,The Relative Deprivation and Political Economy Approach as guide.

An Analysis of the Current State of Civil Society Participation in Ensuring the National Security of Mongolia

In this article, the researchers tried to evaluate the contribution of civil society to Mongolian democracy and the problems faced by civil society. In addition, the article aimed to determine the unique national criteria of Mongolian democracy and the need to create an organization to monitor the process of democracy. The process of identifying important documents and ideals for the development of Mongolian civil society today is still in its early stages. It can be said that the approval of the democratic constitution and the first free and fair parliamentary elections as a country that has newly and restored democracy became another impetus for the creation of a new type of citizen organization. It is characterized by trying to study the changes that have occurred since this historical period at the intersection of political science and security studies. One of the most important issues today is to find out how many non-governmental and civil society organizations exist in Mongolia today, which are Western-oriented, focused on specific issues, have their own position and opinion, are specialized, and are capable of influencing government policy. On the other hand, in this article, we emphasize whether non-governmental and civil society organizations, which aim to hold the government accountable, and carry out influence and control activities, are fully developed.

The Protection of the Right to Equality of the Elderly in the Digital Society

The inequality faced by the elderly in a digital society is the digital inequality caused by both public and private actions,as well as the societal inequality exacerbated by the digital inequality.The essence of this issue lies in the unequal social participation due to the expansion of digital space under digital inequality.The characteristics of the elderly,combined with their inherent human dignity,determine that the ultimate goal of protecting their right to equality in a digital society is not limited to equal digital rights alone.Instead,it aims to ensure that the elderly have equal opportunities for social participation in both digital and non-digital spaces by eliminating digital inequality and curbing the expansion of digital space.This ensures the autonomy of the elderly in the digital society.Accordingly,the State should implement two policies based on both prohibitive obligations that prevent direct infringements and protective obligations that safeguard the equal rights of the elderly against encroachments from private entities.The first policy,“Digital Integration”,empowers the elderly with digital skills and helps them actively integrate into the digital society.The second policy,“Digital Coexistence,”ensures that the elderly can equally participate in society even when they choose to abstain from digital technology.

青年“低欲望躺平”:全球图景、影响因素与引导策略

在全球图景下,以“躺平”为代表的青年低欲望现象已成为世界各国共同面临的难题。文章聚焦美国、英国、日本、韩国、巴西、印度、南非等国的青年低欲望现象,展现了世界各国的差异化表现,并剖析其产生原因。研究指出,全球青年低欲望现象的形成受到外源性因素和内源性因素的影响。其中,外源性因素包括经济下行时期青年就业困难,宗教信仰和社会文化中的男权色彩,以及社会舆论对“躺平”的负面评价;内源性因素包括与青年关系紧密的初级群体的基础素养,以及青年对教育体系和社会现状的不满,而且部分青年的低欲望表现已成为他们抵御社会异化的另类方式。研究提出,面对这一全球普遍存在的社会现象,我们既要承认青年低欲望现象的合理性,营造宽松和谐的社会环境,也要通过政府、媒体、家庭和个人的多方联动,加强青年社交情感发展和能力培养,帮助青年从“躺平”中站起来。

人工智能治理中“基于风险的方法”:理论、实践与反思

以生成式人工智能为代表的新一轮人工智能技术带来了一系列规制挑战,而传统的“基于权利的方法”难以有效因应。“基于风险的方法”主张根据人工智能所带来的不同类型和等级的风险,采取相应的治理措施和方式,平衡技术创新与有效治理的关系。这是一种符合人工智能风险特性和发展规律的治理方法,以风险社会、适应性治理和回应性规制等理论为指引,以风险识别与分析、风险评估与分类、风险控制与监督、风险沟通与参与作为制度构成。在基于风险的人工智能治理实践中,欧盟、美国和中国分别采取“自上而下模式”“自下而上模式”“混合模式”,并取得了初步成效。然而,人工智能治理中“基于风险的方法”也面临批判和质疑,应当构建多元共治的人工智能风险治理体系,并建立动态适应的人工智能风险治理机制,同时搭建开放协作的人工智能风险治理平台。
