Overlooked encounters: young tourists' experiences at dark sites

This research note reviews the existing literature comprised of dark tourism articles and chapters mentioning children. Publications meeting the search criteria were few. Accordingly, we offer possible reasons for the scarcity of research on children in dark tourism, including the legal constraints when researching with minors, the academic risk in undertaking a new field of research, and the substantial expertise needed to engage children in studies. We conclude with the compelling reasons to undertake such research: to inform interpretation of emotionally provocative sites for children, to understand and mitigate children's psychological distress at dark sites, and to advance theoretical work on children as tourists.     

大型沉管管节浮运航道适航特性建模分析

为确保沉管隧道在航道中长期浮运作业的安全性与可靠性,依托深中通道工程备选预制厂方案,建立珠江口局部区域二维水流数学模型,在实测水文资料验证的基础上,通过模型计算揭示了浮运航道的水动力变化特征,开展航道范围内横流、纵流的变化特点分析.分析结果表明:工程实施后,龙穴港池水域的潮流流速普遍较弱,南沙四期港池水域流速变化较小,...     

流动人口非正规就业空间竞争:基于上海若干样点的调查

流动人口占有市场空间是个体或利益集团相互竞争、实现市场空间均衡的结果。本文以上海流动人口为研究对象,以非正规就业空间为研究视角,通过分析四类不同性质的非正规就业群体,阐明了流动人口就业空间竞争的基本原理与基本过程,并得出流动人口空间竞争的原动力来源于获利的可能性,空间竞争的过程是空间占有的过程,也是利益均衡的过程。     

论文化身份对儿童文学译介的影响

本文运用多元系统理论中有关理论对文化身份对童文学译介的影响进行了探讨。文化身份制约了儿童文学翻译,影响译者对翻译作品的选择及翻译策略的选择。然而,文化身份的制约不是决定性的,译者的主观文化态度、不同文化间的相互需求也会影响儿童文学翻译。

The importance of being earners: why women in South Africa need well-paid jobs

The ‘children fare better’ viewpoint claims that children tend to be better fed if their mother (as opposed to father) has sufficient income of her own for food. This paper assesses this claim for South Africa, using data from household surveys. It considers the possibility that this issue is related to domestic violence between husband and wife, and finds an apparent link between wife's earnings, child nutrition and domestic violence. Children's well-being seems more assured if mothers have an adequate income; but there is more risk of inadequate nutrition in households where there is domestic violence against wives.     

Ethics in Food Advertising to Children in India—A Parental Perspective

Marketers are seen to bombard children with advertisements for unhealthy foods using sophisticated promotion techniques that have serious negative effects on health and overall well-being of children. So parents try to mediate children’s exposure to media content and call for governmental regulations in an attempt to shield them. The extent to which they mediate further determines whether they contemplate food advertisements as being ethical or unethical. Therefore, the present study tries to uncover the antecedents to ethical versus unethical perceptions of Indian parents about food advertisements directed at children. No study, to the best of the researchers’ knowledge, has been conducted so far in India in this regard. Using binary logistic regression with mothers, it is found that the mothers who view food advertisements as unethical report their children to watch fewer hours of TV during weekdays and hold negative attitudes toward advertising to children. These mothers, however, do not feel that the government needs to impose restrictions on food advertisements aired on TV since they themselves indulge in mediation of TV advertising as a general parenting responsibility. The implications of the article are finally discussed.

汇率制度与人民币汇率制度改革

汇率制度可分为完全固定汇率、浮动汇率和中间汇率制度。目前我国名义上实行的是以市场供求为基础的、单一的、有管理的浮动汇率制度,这种汇率制度实际上是钉住美元的。虽然这种汇率制度是适合我国实际情况的汇率安排,但是它具有明显的缺点,目前需要在汇率形成机制等方面进行一定的改革,完善真正意义上的管理浮动汇率制度。
