边疆的概念与边疆的法律

本认为在中国古代,边疆的概念有其特定的化含义。不仅如此,边疆概念还有特定的、不同于西方以主权概念为中心的含义。边疆概念的这种特殊性质与中国古代特殊的、以汉化为主体的多民族国家的政治传统和多元一体的化格局有关,反映在中国古代的立法和司法制度上就是边疆的法律与边疆的概念和边疆的民族之间呈现出一种历史性的波动和相对稳定的统一。作从这一角度对之进行探讨,弥补了相关研究的不足。     

沿着中国边疆史地研究的正确方向不断开拓进取

中国边疆史地研究是一门新兴的学科。1983年中国社会科学院中国边疆史地研究中心(以下简称边疆中心)建立后,在中国社会科学院党组的领导下,在历任边疆中心领导和全体研究、工作人员的共同努力下,在各边疆地区党政部门的大力支持下,在全国学术同仁的积极参     

故土与边疆:满洲民族与国家认同里的东北

本文从满族的角度探讨边疆研究的一个中心问题:族群领域性(territoriality)的再定义与其身份(identity)的重塑如何互动关联。满族的历史与文化在近几十年来的清史研究中地位卓著。然而,在清史之外的其他领域,尤其在北美有关二十世纪中国或东亚史的学术领域,满族常常被忽视。本研究立足边疆研究,中外关系,及满汉关系领域的交叉路口,分析清末民初满族的故土认知变化与其对族/国的多元再定义的过程。

最近读到作家出版社出版的杨先让、杨阳的旧题新作《黄河十四走》,心情十分兴奋。事实上,十年前笔者在台湾出版的《汉声》杂志上已经拜读了连载文章《黄河十四走》。笔者对杨先生在民间艺术上的开     

深化边疆理论研究与推动中国边疆学的构筑

一、三次研究高潮与三次学术研讨会中国边疆研究具有悠久的历史、优良的传统、丰硕的成果,可用“千年积累、百年探索”来概括中国边疆研究的发展历程。我们在研究、总结前辈研究的历史遗产后,认为自19世纪中叶迄今,中国边疆研究曾出现三次研究高潮。19世纪中叶至19世纪末,西北边疆史地学的兴起是中国边疆研究第一次高潮的标志。20世纪20年代至40年代边政学的提出与展开,是第二次中国边疆研究高潮的突出成就。20世纪80年代以来中国边疆研究第三次研究高潮出现的

Monongahela subsistence-settlement change: The late prehistoric period in the lower Upper Ohio River valley

The Late Prehistoric period in the lower Upper Ohio River basin of southwestern Pennsylvania and adjacent portions of Maryland, Ohio, and West Virginia is dominated by a material-culture assemblage named Monongahela. Monongahela has been associated with subsistence-settlement systems that included a large number of upland villages that were often far removed from large river valleys. The existence of these villages has been explained as resulting from intra- and interregional warfare. While these upland villages may have obtained as a result of warfare, it is argued that they served as important links in regional divided risk strategies in response to local environmental and social risks.     

Natural and unnatural complexities: flood control along Manitoba's Assiniboine River

Flooding and flood control long have been topics of concern for geographers and historians of North America, from Gilbert White's foundational work to attempts to understand the recent disaster in New Orleans. This paper considers the problem of flood control along the Assiniboine River in the province of Manitoba, Canada. The first section addresses the local landscape and the larger context, explaining changes in the relevant human and physical geography. The second section examines efforts to mitigate flooding, focusing on how the risk of inundation was shifted in location (not eliminated altogether) and compounded through time (not progressively resolved). The third focuses on a further source of complexity: the contested character of government jurisdiction. This final section also addresses major mid twentieth century changes in mitigation efforts: in the light of flooding on an unprecedented scale, governments became more open to compromise and more willing to undertake substantial projects. Gilbert White asserted that while floods are natural occurrences, flood damages are the responsibility of humanity. The question of responsibility might seem relatively clear in relation to flood mitigation, given that dykes are human constructions. The history of flood mitigation along the Assiniboine would suggest, however, that assigning responsibility for the failures and successes of flood mitigation is not so straightforward.     

肃顺和中俄边界交涉

咸丰八年(1858),俄国逼使黑龙江将军奕山签订了《瑷珲条约》,欲将黑龙江北岸和乌苏里江东岸60多万平方公里的领土据为己有。在1859—1860年的中俄边界交涉中,肃顺据理力争,才使俄国没有实现初期的欲望。将肃顺与曾纪泽西北边界的谈判交涉作对比分析,不仅有利于认识肃顺在中俄边界交涉中的外交贡献,更能突出其在整个中国近代外交史上的地位。     

黑龙江畔大五家子一带满族的穆昆祭祀和丧葬

黑龙江大五家子一带是满族的聚居地,这里的满族至今还保留着传统的风俗习惯,其中较为显著的表现在祭祖和丧葬习俗上.而这方面习俗又主要表现在杀猪祭祖和丧葬上使用独特的红幡和满族棺材.本文作者通过实地考察,对其操作过程进行了详细描述.     

绿营兵与清代的西南边疆

清朝非常重视云南绿营兵的布设 ,云南绿营兵不但使清朝二度战胜了各种反清力量 ,实现了对云南的控制 ,而且还将统治范围推向边疆和山区 ,将各少数民族纳入直接统治的范围。清朝以绿营兵在云南近边地区构筑了一条漫长而严密的军事布防带 ,对巩固在云南的统治及西南边疆的稳固具有积极作用。
