The mysterious expulsion of Steven Mosher

A detailed account is presented of information that has been provided by Stanford University and by unnamed "knowledgeable" sources on the events that led to Steven Mosher's expulsion from the Stanford anthropology department's doctoral program. The department will only say that, while in China, Mosher engaged in "illegal and seriously unethical conduct...and in doing so endangered his research subjects." Mosher contends that he was ousted because he had published an article in a Taiwanese magazine about third-trimester abortions in the Chinese village where he conducted his research.     

Mosher loses another appeal

Former Stanford University graduate student Steven Mosher lost a second appeal of his expulsion from the school's anthropology department when, on 20 September 1983, the university's vice provost upheld the department's action. Mosher may now appeal his case to Stanford's president. While the exact reasons for his dismissal have not been made clear, the university alleges he was guilty of misconduct while doing fieldwork in China. Mosher claims he was expelled for political reasons stemming from his disclosure of abortion practices in his host country.     

Mosher case enters final phase

The appeals procedure begun by Steven Mosher after his 1983 expulsion from Stanford University has reached its final stage of review by university president Donald Kennedy, who asked the former student in a letter to clarify issues raised during the initial investigation of his conduct in China as a researcher. Mosher, dismissed from the graduate anthropology program for unethical behavior in the field, maintains that Stanford's actions were politically motivated, the result of pressure from mainland Chinese officials embarrassed by his reports on birth control and abortion practices. In order to protect Mosher's Chinese informants, the University has not made public the precise reasons for his expulsion.     

Round two: Mosher appeals case again

Steven Mosher, who was expelled from the Stanford University anthropology department's doctoral program in February 1983 for alleged illegal and unethical activities while conducting field research in China, has now appealed his case to the level of a university vice provost who is dean of graduate studies. Mosher, who contends he was ousted because he published an article in Taiwan about China's birth control practices, has been satisfied with Stanford's handling of the case as an internal matter, even though some people have suggested that an outside review would at least provide the appearance of a more objective assessment of the evidence.     

以计量学角度统计分析我国“211工程”大学图书馆机构设置

计量学是对学科发展有效评测的工具。以往,图书馆内设机构一般有：办公室、采编部、流通部、咨询部、技术部。但近期我国学者对图书馆机构设置改革的研究成果中,对图书馆设置办公室、资源建设部、读者服务部、信息咨询部、技术部等,这一改革认知程度比较高。通过对我国＂211工程＂大学图书馆机构设置的调查,以计量学的角度对统计结果加以分析、数据挖掘,以期发现我国＂211工程＂大学图书馆机构设置现状、发展趋势,并提出图书馆机构设置新的模式。     

ASIAN-AMERICAN SCIENTISTS: Harbinger of a Litigious Future?

When the chair of the pharmacology department at the University of California, Davis, pledged in writing to find a permanent position for microbiologist Ronald Chuang, Chuang and his wife Linda--a researcher who works in his lab--were delighted. A dozen years later, Ronald Chuang still has no permanent position, and he and his wife filed suit in 1997 over what they allege is a long and egregious series of discriminatory acts by the university.     

反抗帝国主义的另一条道路——论蒋廷黻的琦善研究

蒋廷黻的琦善研究以中外档案为依据,填补了中国近代外交史研究的空白,并且成为了这一研究领域的新标准。他对琦善的一些论断即便在今天的研究水平下也是不能被推翻的。时人对他做翻案文章的理解与他的真实意图存在着差距。他的目的在于为中国抵抗帝国主义侵略找一条切实可行的道路,即运用外交手段求得和平,以现代化的方法来与帝国主义相抗衡。

代理人在职消费对动态多任务激励契约的影响

将代理人的在职消费行为引入到动态多任务委托代理框架中,构造了代理人在职消费行为下的两阶段多任务模型,分析了代理人在职消费行为对动态多任务激励契约的影响.研究结果表明：一是任务为两阶段时,无论代理人有无在职消费行为,代理人的努力程度随着时间均呈上升趋势,这就表明当委托人在设计契约时,如果委托人期望代理人在第一阶段的努力水平不低于第二阶段的努力水平,就需要适当提高第一阶段的业绩薪酬系数;二是代理人在职消费自利行为并不一定会提高自身的努力程度,需要依据在职消费行为对绩效的影响情形来具体分析;三是在两阶段内,代理人存在在职消费时,委托人可适当降低业绩薪酬系数.     

《土壤》2003年-2012年高被引论文分析及启示

为稳步提高《土壤》期刊的学术质量和影响力、为办刊人选题组稿、决定办刊方向提供依据和参考,利用中国引文数据库和中国学术期刊网络出版总库,对《土壤》2003年-2012年的栽文情况进行了整理,并对该时间段内被引频次≥20的高被引论文进行了统计分析。结果表明：高被引论文主要发表在2003年-2006年．占85．5％;发表≥4篇的高被引论文作者几乎来自同一单位,即期刊主办单位中国科学院南京土壤研究所,且大多以通讯作者身份出现;发表I〉2篇高被引论文的第一作者机构24个,覆盖全国;前20篇高被引论文以专论与综述类文章为主,共17篇,研究内容和方向主要包括土壤污染、土壤微生物、设施土壤障碍等热点领域。因此,认为编辑部在约稿组稿中应注意一方面保护现有的核心作者群,一方面应打破地域限制．向热点领域知名专家及其团队组稿,特别是原创性、前瞻性综述与专论类文章。     

特殊人群膳食营养状况的实证研究——以煤矿井下工人为例

为了解析煤矿井下工人日常的膳食营养状况,根据《中国居民膳食指南及平衡膳食宝塔》中“膳食宝塔”提供的各类食物摄入量,使用中国疾病预防控制中心营养与食品安全所编著的《中国食物成分表》(2002)计算出煤矿井下工人的标准人日摄入量,并与中国居民平衡膳食(CBDP)每日推荐量进行比较.结果表明,煤矿井下工人的膳食结构严重失衡,膳食结构不合理.因此,根据煤矿井下工人的自身特点制定出合理的膳食结构,并加强对其日常饮食的监管是劳动管理部门不可忽视的问题.

Melmon resigns Stanford chairmanship

The chairman of Stanford Medical School's department of medicine, Kenneth Melmon, has resigned his administrative position after receiving a letter of censure from Stanford president Donald Kennedy. A university ethics committee had found Melmon guilty of negligent scholarship after it was discovered that a textbook chapter authored by him contained unattributed material from a book he had earlier helped edit. Melmon maintained that permission to use the material and its proper attribution had been handled by his editor, but this later proved not to be the case. Stanford plans no further action in the matter, and Melmon will retain his professorship.     

日本学者对王国维美育观形成的影响

王国维文学研究一方面是为了追求中国文学的独立,寻求中国文学的现代转型;另一方面是期望发挥文学的美育功能,改变民众精神空虚、缺乏审美能力的现实状况。为实现这两个目标,王国维提出了自己的美育观。他的美育观体现了求真向美的文学宗旨和价值追求,德国古典哲学是它的思想来源之一,这已是学界公认的事实,而日本学者及相关日译西学著作同样对王国维美育观的建构发挥了很大作用。在哲学解释学层面上,理清日本学者及日译西学对王国维美育观产生的影响,有助于对王国维美育观形成更加完整的认识。
