The Shaping of Environmental Rights Oriented Toward the “Needs for a Better Life”

With the continuous improvement in the protection of environmental rights in China,the demand for a“more beautiful environment”in the“needs for a better life”should serve as the basis for the formation of environmental rights.Environmental rights oriented toward the“needs for a better life”reflect the legal response to ensure that the environment meets people’s spiritual needs to a certain extent after the environment meets their health needs.Based on the provisions of the general personality rights in China’s Civil Code and related judicial practice,a legal normative interpretation of environmental rights oriented toward the“needs for a better life”can be established.At the theoretical level,the boundary of environmental rights should be determined by taking the obligation to tolerate as the bottom line.In the identification and protection of environmental rights in relevant judicial practices,factors such as the protection of reasonable expectations and the inertia of people’s perceptions of the environment should be fully considered with judicial discretion to render the positioning of judicial protection reasonable based on taking the obligation to tolerate as the bottom line.

The Analysis of Discrepancies between English for Specific Purposes Teaching and Needs Analysis of Job Requirements

This paper aims at strengthening teachers’understanding as well as optimizing future curriculum design of ESP(Eng⁃lish Specific Purpose).According to the literature ESP is one of the means for language learning and teaching,which is based on learners’needs.By adopting needs analysis,teachers are able to deeply and appropriately understand the needs from students and the real-life settings like working places in society.According to the three cases that have been reviewed,there are always discrep⁃ancies between teaching and learning in the classroom,and the real-life needs of job requirements in society.Combining the curric⁃ulum design of ESP and the method of needs analysis is an effective way to close the discrepancy.

Supportive care needs and health-related quality of life among Chinese lung cancer survivors

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the supportive care needs and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of lung cancer survivors, and to identify the association between patient characteristics, HRQoL and supportive care needs. Method: This was a sub-study of a larger scale survey of cancer survivors’ supportive care needs. A total of 48 lung cancer survivors were recruited from a regional teaching hospital, and a three-part structured questionnaire was used to collect 1) socio-demographic and clinical characteristics, 2) supportive care needs and 3) health-related quality of life data. Results: The three most commonly reported unmet needs were all in the health-system information domain: 1) being informed about your results as soon as possible (58%), 2) being informed about cancer which is under control or diminishing (50%), and 3) being informed about things you can do to help yourself get well (46%). The second most common unmet need domain was access to healthcare and ancillary support services. The survivors generally reported satisfactory HRQoL. However, household income and unmet physical and psychological needs were independently associated with HRQoL among these survivors. Conclusion: The high unmet needs in the health-system information area call for a review of the content and amount of information provided to lung cancer survivors. In addition, more attention should be given to lung cancer survivors with low incomes but high physical and psychological unmet needs, who require appropriate follow-up and long-term care of a physical, social and psychological kind.

Development Imbalances in China:An Integrated Analysis with the Tsinghua China Balanced Development Index

The principal contradiction facing the Chinese society has evolved to be that between imbalanced and inadequate development and the people’s ever-growing needs for a better life.Given China’s vision for achieving moderate prosperity,it is relevant to conduct theoretical and empirical studies on the nation’s development imbalances.As a quantitative index,the Tsinghua China Balanced Development Index measures the extent to which development is uneven and insuf ficient across regions,re flecting the progress and shortfalls in China’s efforts to promote balanced development.Our findings provide implications for how policymakers may help people’s expectations for a better life materialize by spurring balanced economic,social,environmental and livelihood development across regions.

Understanding the Spatial Requirements that Facilitate Personal Leisure Activities of the High-Needs Elderly

The growth of the ageing population and the desires for ageing-in-place have resulted in an ever-increasing need for housing that can support the independent living of the elderly with care needs.As impairments and care needs increase,spatial use typically changes.However,there is limited information on how to accommodate leisure activities and spatial use in private dwellings to inform housing design.Through an ethnographic investigation of 30 high-needs elderly people living independently,patterns of spatial use for personal leisure activities were established.Seven key themes for residents’perceptions were revealed,which include;comfort in posture,access to sunshine and warmth,facilitating activities to occupy residents,views to outside,control for doing everything from one space,and keeping active.In the design of housing for the high-needs elderly,greater attention should be given to the micro-environment of the main sitting space,to improve occupant control while enhancing comfort and warmth.This paper provides key considerations for housing design,which will help elderly people continue their fulfilled life in their own home as long as possible.

基于马斯洛需要层次理论指导的护理干预联合CICARE沟通应用于老年白内障术后患者的效果

马克思主义视域下美好生活研究范式的转换——以方法论为中心

40年来的中国社会变迁可以分别用“生产型社会”与“生活型社会”加以概括。不同社会发展阶段的生产方式和生活方式是有差异的,评估方法也有所不同。新常态发展阶段的社会建设处于从生产型社会转向生活型社会的过程中,物质需求和精神需求成为双螺旋,形塑着生产方式和生活方式。当前的生活方式研究应从马克思社会理论、美好生活论和中国新发展现实相结合的视域,宏观上将“生产-生活”整体论和“中国为方法”作为美好生活论的基本面向,中观上将“生活者为方法”转换为“家作为方法”和“己作为方法”,从而实现生活方式研究范式的突破和创新。

对人工智能的目的反思

人工智能是一柄双刃剑,反思其技术问题、引导其积极效能是哲学研究的基本任务。无论是人工智能的现状还是未来,人类真正需要并能够控制的对象,与其说是智能机器,不如说是人类自身,因此人工智能技术的真正问题在于人对待世界的问题。突破传统人工智能“技术漏洞—制度补强”的修补式思辨路径,以人工智能作为反观人类自身得失、促成美好生活实现的窗口,基于“人之主宰地位”及“人之本质定义”的视角重申敬畏之心、德性挺立之于人类生命及世界秩序的重要价值,可得到人工智能于美好生活的新的哲学向度。就此而言,人工智能作为一种人类发明的技术逻辑,终究是需要回归社会实践的,把握人工智能的安全性,以确保负责任的技术创新,是人工智能技术运用于生活的基本底线。而在美好生活的向度层面,首先就必须正视和接纳人工智能为人类之秩序与安宁带来的系列福利,其次要反思人类社会既有制度以及人性取向既有缺陷。在此基础上,反省现代社会人的价值追求、增进其对于他者的同情、对于世界的包容,既需要积极利用智能技术来提升生产效率与生活品质,也必须完善与之相应的人文及伦理与法律制度建设,从而最终实现美好生活所要求的,效率与公平、技术与思想、物质与精神的双向并进。
