东北三省全面振兴的社会经济支撑能力评估

在解析支撑能力和东北问题特点的基础上,从“创新、协调、绿色、开放、共享”五大理念出发建立全面振兴社会经济支撑能力评价指标体系和综合评价方法,以地级市为单元对东北三省进行评估。研究发现：各地市社会经济支撑能力差异显著,哈大沿线核心城市的支撑能力较强,西翼城市以及朝阳、七台河、绥化、葫芦岛、铁岭、双鸭山和鹤岗等资源型城市支撑能力较弱。因此未来东北地区在振兴政策的区域分布上应有所侧重,对不同地区施以不同的振兴或扶持政策。在创新、绿色、开放方面需要集中力量重点突破,而在体制机制改革和共享服务建设方面需要全面覆盖,并重点加强黑龙江北部和辽宁、吉林西翼城市的共享能力建设。     

面向空心村综合整治的农村土地资源配置探析

如何通过空心村综合整治实现农村土地资源的合理配置,是构建城乡发展一体化新格局所要面对和解决的重大问题。本文通过梳理空心村整治和农村土地资源配置的概念内涵,明晰了新型城镇化、乡村重构、空心村整治和农村土地资源配置之间的内在关联;根据不同空心村整治类型例证了农村土地资源配置模式,并提出面向空心村整治的农村土地资源配置的市场化及制度保障措施。结果表明：空心村整治的实质是实现以农村土地要素为载体的要素有序流动及其优化配置,乡村重构和空心村整治互为理论依据和推动途径,空心村整治和新型城镇化互为重要内容和研究背景,新型城镇化和乡村重构则互为政策推力和实现方法;对应于空心村综合整治途径,将农村土地资源配置分为城乡一体型、中心社区型和就地改良型3种模式;当前需要发挥市场对农村土地资源配置的决定性作用,重点改革土地征收制度、土地承包经营权流转制度、宅基地流转制度和农村土地退出制度,完善户籍制度、社会保障制度和税费制度,从而有效提升农村土地利用效率。     

融合多模态特征的社会多媒体谣言检测技术研究

以微博为代表的社会媒体的蓬勃发展在加速信息交流的同时,也促使虚假谣言信息迅速在社会网络上传播,造成严重的后果.自动谣言检测问题受到了国内外学术界、产业界的广泛关注.围绕社会多媒体谣言检测这一问题,本文总结了融合多模态特征的谣言检测相关技术.首先从基本概念出发,阐述了谣言的定义和社会多媒体的特点,给出了社会多媒体谣言检测问题的定义.针对谣言检测面临的多模态特征抽取和模型构建两大难点,分别总结和归纳了各种类型的特征及其提取方法和不同的机器学习检测模型.这些特征和算法是检测谣言的基本手段,也是接下来研究的基础,可为进一步谣言检测的研究提供参考.     

太湖流域社会经济发展对水环境的影响研究 ——以无锡市为例

近20年来，太湖流域地区在社会经济快速发展的同时，其生态环境也急剧恶化，特别是水体污染严重，其水质每5－10年下降一个等级。文章以无锡市为例,分析了社会经济发展对太湖流域水环境影响的主要因素与原因，并从产业结构的优化、水资源重复利用、污水处理企业化经营以及环境宣传等方面探讨了应对目前太湖流域水环境问题的主要措施。     

水资源自然属性和社会属性分析

我国是水资源严重短缺的国家之一,明晰水资源属性是解决水问题的基础和关键。水资源既具有自然资源的属性,又有着特别的社会属性。该文通过对水资源自然和社会属性的分析,认为无论是继续对水资源的开发利用实行国家垄断,还是明晰水权、逐步建立水市场都必须充分考虑水资源属性,方可能实现水资源支持下的社会经济持续健康发展。     

从土地环境解读我国的土地问题

土地环境是指存在于土地外部的物质、空间和人类社会体系,包括土地自然环境、土地工程环境、土地社会环境三大板块,具有整体性、区域性、动态性和相对稳定性等基本特性。土地环境决定着土地的价值、利用方式、利用结构和利用效益。从土地环境的诱因,把土地问题区分为原生土地问题、次生土地问题和社会土地问题三大类。我国此三类问题都非常严峻,致使人地关系失调,土地关系失衡。土地环境研究应围绕土地利用整体效益最大化、保护耕地、消除土地利用中不利的外部性影响三个目标,既要开展基础研究,揭示土地与土地环境之间的关系及其相互作用的机理和时空演变规律．又要进行应用研究,重点是土地环境评价。     

跨界旅游区的组织网络结构与合作模型——以大别山天堂寨为例

跨界旅游区是旅游发展潜力大而管理对象复杂的地理单元,成为旅游地理学区域性研究新焦点。立足于组织际关系(IORs)和社会网络理论方法视角,剖析出跨界旅游区空间合作行为实质为跨界旅游组织之间接触交流的网络构建和重组。在相应的社会网络评价指标体系建立的基础上,对大别山天堂寨跨界旅游区网络结构和跨界合作进行实证分析,并经核心—边缘模型验证,表明:①从网络密度看,天堂寨整体网络密度较局域网络密度小,呈现出行政区内的强联结和行政区之间的弱联结,网络结构洞特征凸显;低层级行政区之间网络密度大于高层级行政区之间的网络密度;跨界维度越多,网络密度越小,说明跨界旅游活动存在显著的边界效应。②从网络节点中心度看,局域中心度最大,整体中心度次之,边界中心度最小,从一个侧面印证了旅游行政区经济存在且相当强势。③根据Francisco的组织际合作关系整合模型,发现天堂寨跨界旅游合作处于由弱合作阶段向中合作阶段过渡。进一步降低交易成本,增加各方共识度,营造良好的外部环境,采取组建跨界旅游联盟,进而提高跨界合作强度,是实现天堂寨跨界旅游区可持续发展的重要途径。     

我国西部生态退化的社会经济分析--以川西为例

导致川西生态退化主要原因是经济发展水平低，人口超过环境容量，农村生产方式和生活方式落后，以柴、粪为薪、天然放牧，陡坡垦殖，砍伐森林等导致植被破坏，草场退化，水土流失，据此，对川西的区域资源优势，川西较低密度人口，川西资源开发和支柱产业选择应重新评价和定位。进行川西生态建设，实施可持续发展战略，必须营造开放的社会－经济－自然复合系统的耗散结构，构造社会、经济发展与生态建设协调的有序结构和机制。同时，较彻底地改造农林牧生态系统，开创与生态协调的农业结构，生产模式，种植模式和管理模式，进行农牧区社区建设，根除刀耕火种，陡坡垦殖，游牧的社会基础。

The social impacts of tourism — A case study in Dali,Yunnan province,China

Ancient town Dali is located in northwest Yunnan Province. With its ancient history and natural scenery, it is preserved as one of the first 24 historical and cultural towns in China. Dali has become one of the most popular attractions for foreign tourists since it had its first foreign visitors in 1983. As a result, English came into the life of the local people. This paper presents and explains the results of questionnaires and interviews about Dali people’s attitude toward learning English. Three types of questionnaires were designed to local businessmen, local residents and foreign tourists. Interviews were also given whenever possible. In this study, businessmen in Dali were divided into two distinct groups. One group had their business in “Foreigners’ Street”, which was in front of Hongshancha Hotel where many foreign tourists stayed. Another group had business in Fuxin Street, which was vertically across “Foreigners’ Street”. The 41 shops and restaurants in “Foreigners’ Street” served mainly foreign visitors, and most of them had English names and advertisements. The 353 shops and restaurants in Fuxin Street mainly catered for domestic visitors but also served more and more overseas ones. Subjects from local residents were mostly young people because aging ones were apparently not much affected by English. The results of the study showed that the oral English levels became lower from “Foreigners’ Street” to Fuxin Street to local residents, due to declining frequency of contact with foreign people. There were also distinct differences in general English level, the understanding of the importance of English, the purposes of communicating with foreign tourists, the willingness and purposes of going on learning English between businessmen in “Foreigners’ Street” and Fuxin Street: people in “Foreigners’ Street” had more positive feedback than those in Fuxin Street because their constant contact with foreigners required them to speak better English which enabled them to exchange with foreigners in many aspects, which in turn help them to know more about other cultures. On the other hand, Fuxin Street businessmen would catch up with more and more prospective contact with overseas people. Though local residents had nothing to do with foreign tourists, they met them in the street every day and might have to talk with them in unexpected ways. They lived in a place where they saw English advertisement every day. Accordingly, study results showed that they were very much motivated to learn English. They showed even stronger desire to learn more English than businessmen in “Foreigners’ Street”, though many of them were too young to tell why English was so important for them. This is an indication that English has become part of the necessary education for young people in Dali. With the development of tourism, Dali is gradually becoming a place where Chinese culture and western culture meet and coexist.
