To Do or to Have? That Is the Question.

Do experiences make people happier than material possessions? In two surveys, respondents from various demographic groups indicated that experiential purchases-those made with the primary intention of acquiring a life experience--made them happier than material purchases. In a follow-up laboratory experiment, participants experienced more positive feelings after pondering an experiential purchase than after pondering a material purchase. In another experiment, participants were more likely to anticipate that experiences would make them happier than material possessions after adopting a temporally distant, versus a temporally proximate, perspective. The discussion focuses on evidence that experiences make people happier because they are more open to positive reinterpretations, are a more meaningful part of one's identity, and contribute more to successful social relationships.

大道“有形”——以历史唯物主义的社会发展观来审视“手艺”在当下的核心价值

本文选取"手艺"的物质性和"非物质性"为论述对象,以历史唯物主义社会发展观为思辨基础,通过审视手艺的双重属性,将其放置在社会历史发展的宏大背景中,从文化的维度审视手艺的精神。     

论唯物史观的自然维度——兼谈马克思恩格斯自然观的异同

马克思和恩格斯对人与自然关系的研究具有着不同视角：马克思从现实的人的劳动实践出发,重点考察人类社会的特定形态,强调人与自然物质变换的社会历史条件,其中实践在人与自然关系中起着中介的作用;恩格斯则从自然发展的历史考察自然,利用自然科学的成果揭示自然界的普遍联系和辩证发展,描述物质自然界从无机界向人类社会的演化过程,因而,自然是由近现代自然科学得以说明的统一的和发展的物质世界。然而,他们之间的区别是建立在人与自然根本性一致的实践基础上的。把马克思恩格斯对立起来解读无益于从整体上把握马克思主义的当代价值和革命意义。     

Privileging the “Objective”: Understanding the State’s Role in Shaping Housing Aspirations

This paper is to be read as one half of a twofold analysis of recent qualitative research on the housing aspirations of the people of Scotland, focusing specifically on the dimension of housing tenure. Moving beyond individual subjective preferences (i.e. what people “consciously” want or desire in relation to housing), this paper draws influence from David Harvey’s historical materialist approach to illustrate the importance of understanding the dialectical relation between objective reality and subjective preferences. We argue that it is by examining the broad homologies between the qualitative data on one hand, and the corresponding epochs of capital accumulation on the other, that important power structures can be made visible, and changes in housing aspirations over time better understood.     

浅谈辩证唯物主义观点在化学教学中的培养

从化学学科的特点入手,通过对在化学教学中如何对学生进行培养辩证唯物主义观点培养的论述,指出化学教学过程对学生进行辩证唯物主义观点的培养既有必要又切实可行,化学教材中许多理论和经验规律定律,都体现了辩证唯物主义观点。在教学中,引导学生运用辩证唯物主义观点学习化学科学知识,不仅可以提高学生对辩证唯物主义观点的认识,而且在通过对唯物主义观点的培养,还能加强学生对复杂多变的化学学科知识的理解,加深学生对化学本质的认识。     

基于《德意志意识形态》的唯物史观探究

马克思、恩格斯通过写作《德意志意识形态》同青年黑格尔派实行最彻底的决裂,借以清算了马克思从前的哲学信仰,对德国思辩哲学、费尔巴哈人本主义进行了深刻的研究和批判,在此基础上创立了科学的唯物史观。     

谁创造历史--马克思主义发展史上的三个重要命题

在谁创造历史的问题上,马克思主义者先后提出过三个重要命题:人们自己创造自己的历史;人民群众是历史的创造者;人民是历史的真正创造者。三个命题的先后提出充分表明,马克思主义具有与时俱进的理论品质。

Doing thinking: revisiting computing with artistic research and technofeminism

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we explore how artistic research and its methodologies can create new modes of thinking and research on computational issues. We draw on experiences with the research project ‘Reconfiguring Computing Through Cyberfeminism and New Materialism’ (CF+), during which we collaboratively investigated modes and methods of knowledge production in computing. Cyberfeminist legacies and new materialism provided a historically informed and theoretically rigorous set of concerns around which artistic research and computing were brought together. We discuss collaborative experiments and three hybrid methodologies – creating situations for intra-action, diffractive reading/making and material speculation – that we employed and suggest that what emerged is a kind of ‘doing thinking’ as a material-speculative practice that re-positions research as a critical open-ended space for non-standard ways of knowing. The paper explores implications of this for ethics and responsibility in computing, materiality of knowledge production and modes of interdisciplinary collaborations.     

解构论对辩证唯物主义的"增补"

解构论与辩证唯物主义是一种“增补”关系。一方面,解构论通过解构“物质”和“实践”等概念实现了对唯物主义的“增补”,通过“延异”逻辑对辩证法进行了“增补”。另一方面,解构论“增补”了辩证唯物主义“间隔／变化”的逻辑形式,阐明了自身“延异”的“立场”是一种文字的“撒播”。
