Focusing on the military defense buildings in the western regions of the Han and Tang Dynasties, CiteSpace software is used to conduct statistical and visual analysis on the hot issues of relevant literature in the military buildings on the silk road. Based on the analysis of frontier hot issues, the research trend of future topics is analyzed and predicted. The research shows that the frontier hot spots of military architecture in the western regions of Han and Tang Dynasties are extensive, and the research trend is steadily rising.展开更多

Therefore, the Finnish Defence Forces will also need professional and motivated individuals both now and in the future. The variable, interdependent, and complex environment has set totally new requirements for future's officers1. The Finnish cadets' selection process plays a crucial role, because the Finnish Defence Forces educate and train all the officers by itself. By means of the student selection will be made decisions whose influences have long temporal dimension, The officers who graduate from the Finnish National Defence University will build up the tomorrow's Finnish Defense Forces. In this paper, it will address the quality and functionality of the Finnish Defence University's student selection processes as part of competence and knowledge management from the organization's point of view2. Because of overall changes of society and the security environment, the Finnish officers' education and training system (see Figure 1) has been modified frequently during the few recent years. Both the reforms of the degree programs of Military Science and the Finnish higher education culture's modifications have been tried to notice during the analysis. The paper is based on the author's doctoral thesis that is compiling at the moment.展开更多

These problems are analyzed as special cases of a problem that could arise in any profession, a problem easily resolved using a theory of professional ethics (more or less) absent from medical ethics until now though common outside. Employing a physician--rather than an ordinary officer, some other kind of healer, or scientist--is to enter a sort of "Ulysses contract" requiring the physician's professional standards to preempt obligations otherwise applying to an employee. In this way, the article also illustrates the benefits that might accrue to medical ethics from drawing (more than is now common) on other fields of practical ethics.展开更多
