1949—1966年工矿地区图书发行工作探析

工矿地区的群众始终是党和国家开展图书发行工作的重要对象。新中国成立之初,由于力量所限,工矿地区的图书发行工作主要采取流动供应方式;随着发行力量的不断增强,尤其是大规模经济建设对相关图书的迫切需求,在工矿地区发行图书的内容、数量和形式日益丰富,新华书店工矿门市部与书亭、工矿图书馆、义务发行员和流动供应图书相结合的发行方式逐渐成为主流。在党和国家的统一领导与管理下,以新华书店为代表的国营图书发行机构将内容多样、种类丰富的图书送到工人读者手中,在加强政治宣传、提升工业产量、推动技术进步和满足工人文化需求等方面发挥了重要作用。     

Going Against the Grain: Why Do Canada and the United States Market Wheat So Differently?

At the turn of the twentieth century, private grain exchanges settled the daily prices for North American wheat. By the end of the Second World War, the Canadian and US governments had intervened significantly in these markets. The Canadian government required farmers in its western provinces to deliver their product to the Canadian Wheat Board (CWB), a single-selling-desk agency that, by then, had supplanted private wheat marketing in western Canada. Meanwhile, the United States government subsidized farm incomes with domestic-use taxes and import tariffs, but otherwise preserved private wheat marketing. In this article, I demonstrate that these disparate agricultural policies were broadly defined by immutable economic realities imposed on each country by global wheat-trade patterns and triggered by unprecedentedly severe agricultural crises. That is, amidst the precipitous fall in wheat prices in the early 1930s, each government crafted farm-support policies that reflected its domestic-consumption share of wheat production and the importance of wheat to its overall economy.     

珠江三角洲乡镇工业空间分布的分散性研究——以顺德市北滘镇为例

乡镇工业空间分布的研究具有很强的理论与现实意义。国外就这一主题的研究很少。本文在总结国内目前有关研究的基础上,以我国乡镇工业发达的珠江三角洲为研究区域,以顺德市北滘镇为实例,采用北滘镇域内109间乡镇工业企业的抽样问卷调查资料,对乡镇工业分散分布问题进行实证研究,试图从企业角度揭示和分析乡镇工业分散分布的根本原因。

我国绿色农业布局问题研究

绿色农业是一种新的农业生产方式。本文探讨了绿色农业的基本含义,分析了我国绿色农业发展、布局中存在的优势和问题,认为绿色农业将成为我国农业的主导产业部门,其结构是以绿色粮食生产为基础,以绿色经济作物和绿色畜牧业为主体,并包括绿色林特产品采集和绿色养殖业在内的综合农业。全国范围内可划分为九个绿色农业区。按照比较优势、市场导向、因地制宜和地域相对集中等原则,要重点建设14个绿色农业类型,并进一步研究了我国绿色农业合理布局的对策     

“The Dirty Scruff”: Relief and the Production of the Unemployed in Depression‐era British Columbia

Abstract: In this article, I examine this nexus between the social and political meaning of unemployment and the political responses that follow. I focus on Depression‐era Vancouver and investigate the broad ideologies, representations and practices that contributed to the derision of the unemployed, which in turn, informed the establishment of rural relief camps that aimed to address the unemployment crisis of the 1930s. The social and political meaning of unemployment shaped the contours of the Federal Unemployment Relief Scheme, which housed men in work camps and aimed to both discipline and rehabilitate the unemployed. However, the relief camps were plagued by several contradictions exploited by the Relief Camp Workers Union, which constructed oppositional understandings of unemployment. In discussing the relationship between unemployment and relief I attend to questions of space, highlighting the urbanisation of unemployment and the ideological distinctions between the city and the country.     

Radiocarbon calibration curves,summed probability distributions,and early Paleoindian population trends in North America

Archaeologists increasingly examine summed probability distributions of radiocarbon dates to search for temporal trends in ancient human populations, including early North American population trends across the onset of the Younger Dryas climatic period (10,900 BC). We use both IntCal04 and IntCal09 to simulate and calibrate sequences of radiocarbon dates that represent evenly spaced calendar ages from 12,000 to 9000 BC and use IntCal09 to simulate two different demographic processes across this interval. The shapes of the calibrated summed probability distribution from our first set of simulations mirror many trends that have been interpreted in demographic terms and this shape shows clear links to the shape of the radiocarbon calibration curve. This is true for both IntCal04 and IntCal09, although these different curves produce different probability distributions. The shapes of the calibrated summed probability distribution from our second set of simulations differ somewhat but show virtually identical trends at points where the actual frequencies of calendar dates are very different. We conclude that changing frequencies of radiocarbon dates over time probably do contain demographic information, but that extracting this information is more difficult than archaeologists have acknowledged.
