当前,老百姓最为关注的三大难题是看病难、上学难、买房难。上一期,我们分析的是医疗体制改革问题,本期,我们关注教育公平问题。某种意义上说,教育公平主要指向的是教育机会均等问题,教育公平是社会公平价值在教育领域的延伸和体现,包括教育权利平等和教育机会均等这样两个基本方面。教育公平之所以成为教育现代化的基本价值,成为世界各国教育政策的基本出发点,除了接受教育已经成为现代社会公民的基本人权,而且由于教育能够显著地改善人的生存状态,增进社会公平,被视为是实现社会平等“最伟大的工具”。由于我国人口众多、地域广阔、各地区经济文化发展极不平衡的实际国情,我国的教育公平虽然已经得到很大的改善,仍然存在着显著的差距和一些突出的问题。在教育进入新的大发展阶段之时,教育公平问题已经凸显。这主要表现为:由于社会、经济发展不平衡造成的地区差别;由于城市和农村巨大的发展差异造成的城乡差别...
The Crime of Sylvestre Bonnardby Anatole FrancePart IThe LogDecember 24, 1849.I had put on my slippers and my dressing-gown. I wiped away a tear with which the north wind blowing over the quay had obscured my vision. A bright fire was leaping in the chimney of my study. Ice-crystals, shaped like fern-leaves, were sprouting over the windowpanes and concealed from me the Seine with its bridges and the Louvre of the Valois.I drew up my easy-chair to the hearth, and my table-volante, and took up
第一部分序:写在灵魂的前端我又静静地将这十几万字的故事看了一遍,泪湿了干,干了又湿。最初动笔的时候是在2003年夏末,处于夏天与秋天的交界,整个人也清爽得很,看着大街上熙熙攘攘的行人,一个个不相识的人擦肩而过,花依旧灿烂,太阳依旧温暖,似乎什么都没在发生,而这些匆忙走过的人们又有些什么样的故事呢?是惊心动魄还是温缓如水?那时我18岁,正是一个爱幻想的年龄,看着别人的爱情,听着别人的爱情,而笔下的爱情也在不为人知地暗涌。然而写了只一个月就停止了,因为学习还有生活上的一些问题,一度让我没有继续这个故事。不是不能写,而是不愿意写,因为我要以最严谨的态度,以最饱满的热情来对待这部作品。再动笔的时候已经记不清是在什么时候开始的,只记得那时天空美丽的蓝色和心中柔软的文字。直到6月初,我终于完成了这部作品。夏日的阳光很猛烈,我抬起头眯着眼,阳光温柔地射在我脸上,仿佛看到了蓝夏雪灿烂的...

近年来,社会中间阶层成了国内理论界关注的一个热点问题,这种关注有三个方面的必然性。其一,社会主义市场经济的发展,迅速导致了社会利益主体的多元化,作为一个重要利益群体的中间阶层正在中国逐渐兴起;其二,从西方国家的发展经验来看,社会中间阶层对于民主政治和社会稳定具有特别重要的意义,国内的许多学者也据此判断,中间阶层的状况对中国未来的政治发展也将有着举足轻重的作用;其三,改革开放后,随着中国政治重心从阶级斗争转移向经济建设,淡化“阶级”概念而重视“阶层”概念,事实上已经成为中国思想界的一种现实语境。不过,已有的关于中国社会中间阶层的众多研究,大多是一种社会学的观察和分析,鲜有从政治学角度所做的研究。其实,从政治学的方法分析社会中间阶层,具有社会学的分析所不可替代的作用。这一点正是我向出版社和读者推荐该书的主要理由。...
How To Tell Stories To Children And Some Stories To Tellby Sara Cone BryantConcerning the fundamental points of method in telling a story, I have little to add to the principles which I have already stated as necessary, in my opinion, in the book of which this is, in a way, the continuation. But in the two years which have passed since that book was written, I have had the happiness of working on stories and the telling of them, among teachers and students all over this country, and in that ex
A Footnote to Historyby Robert Louis StevensonPREFACEAN affair which might be deemed worthy of a note of a few lines inany general history has been here expanded to the size of a volumeor large pamphlet. The smallness of the scale, and the singularityof the manners and events and many of the characters, considered,it is hoped that, in spite of its outlandish subject, the sketchmay find readers. It has been a task of difficulty. Speed was...

We are, I may say, old settlers here; particularly myold chimney, which settles more and more every day.Though I always say, I AND MY CHIMNEY, as Cardinal Wolsey used tosay, "I AND MY KING," yet this egotistic way of speaking, whereinI take precedence of my chimney, is hereby borne out by thefacts; in everything, except the above phrase, my chimney taking...
