托忒文历史文献对清朝官方史籍编纂的影响

二十世纪三十至四十年代 ,陈垣先生曾大力倡导史源学研究。史源学的要义 ,是追寻史学论著的史料来源 ,检验立论的依据 ,考证其中的讹误。半个世纪以来 ,史源学不但在历史学界享有盛誉 ,而且扬起学术规范化的风帆 ,驶向邻近学科的学术港湾 ,产生广泛的影响。① 当然这主要讲的是对汉文文献研究的影响。在蒙文文献的研究方面 ,1 978年蒙古国学者沙·比拉在他的专著《蒙古史学史》中也关注到了这一问题。他在研究“帝国时代的蒙古史学史 (十三———十四世纪 )”的有关著述《圣武亲征录》、《元史》时就断言 ,它们的资料来源中有不少蒙古文资料…     

新疆旅游经济驱动因子的量化分析

以新疆旅游为例,针对可能影响新疆旅游发展的指标变量,运用因子分析法、聚类分析法就新疆各地州市的旅游经济驱动因子及其相似性进行定量化的综合评价。因子分析得出：社会经济发展状况是影响新疆旅游经济发展的第一主因子,旅游资源状况为第二主因子,口岸开放状况、贸易状况分别为第三、四因子。运用回归法对因子分析进行进一步研究,证明第一因子确实对旅游收入的影响最大,第二因子旅游资源状况也是旅游创收的重要动力。     

张国焘关于中共成立前后情况的讲稿

不久前,俄罗斯科学院远东研究所K·B·舍维廖夫教授给本刊寄来了新发现的两份珍贵档案材料:张国焘关于中共成立情况的两次讲课稿.据舍维廖夫先生称,讲稿写在1929年印制的笔记本上,估计是在以瞿秋白为首的中共党史教研室成立后为莫斯科中山大学撰写的.由于张国焘是中国共产党的早期领导人之一,参加了中共一大及中共创立前后的许多重要活动,因此他早年撰写的这两份讲稿,无疑具有重要的资料价值.我们特予刊登,以飨读者.

THE EFFECTS OF ZONING IN SPATIAL COMPETITION

ABSTRACT This paper considers a location model to illustrate the effect of zoning on competition. A planner is in charge of designing a city in a circular space where firms and consumers are located on different sides. With this type of market configuration, equilibrium in location under concave transport costs is proved. Then, a welfare function with different weights attached to consumer and firm surpluses is introduced to highlight zoning regulation as an influential competition policy tool. Depending on the regulator's political profiles and the demand, it is shown that zoning can lead to strong, weak, or moderate competition.     

Les Peintres et Sculpteurs du Roi et L’ « Expertise Artistique » Sous Louisxiv

At the crossroads of institutions, markets ands discourses, artistic expertise under the reign of Louis XIV has not been thoroughly studied. So-called "experts" belonged to the judiciary field: they were called upon to describe, attribute and evaluate paintings and sculptures in probate inventories or in the context of judiciary actions. Their appointment was a real performative act, since experts were chosen by the judge or the parties, without definite criteria. Therefore, experts were often - but not always - artists, either guild masters or academicians.
