Re-thinking the Unthinkable: Arms Control in the Twenty-First Century

ABSTRACT

Since the end of the Cold War, arms control proponents tried to make the case for deep nuclear reductions and other forms of security cooperation as necessary for strategic stability. While different versions of strategic stability analysis did sometimes produce innovative proposals, constructive negotiations, and successful ratification campaigns in the past, this analytical framework has become more of a hindrance than a help. Treating arms control as a predominantly technical way to make deterrence more stable by changing force structure characteristics, military operations, relative numbers of weapons on either side, or total number of nuclear weapons gives short shrift to political factors, including the fundamental assumptions about world politics that inform different arms control logics, the quality of political relations among leading states, and the political processes that affect negotiation, ratification, and implementation. This article compares two logics for arms control as a means to enhance strategic stability, one developed by the Cambridge community in the 1960s and one used by the Reagan administration and its successors, with current perspectives on strategic stability in which flexibility and freedom of action are preferable to predictability and arms control. It also contrasts what the Barack Obama administration has tried to achieve through strategic stability dialogues with Russia and China with how they envision security cooperation. It then presents an approach developed during the Cold War by Hedley Bull for thinking about both the technical and the political dimensions of arms control, and suggests that the logic of Cooperative Security (which shares important features with Bull's approach) is a more appropriate and productive way to think about arms control in the twenty-first century than strategic stability analysis is.

多彩光谱教育理论与音乐、绘画融通的教学实践

音乐与绘画的融通问题长期以来一直缺乏充分、深入的研究,在教育领域也是如此。本文援引多个教学案例,借鉴多彩光谱教育理论,从教学目标、教学设计、教学步骤、实施方法诸方面来阐释和解决音乐与绘画的融通在教学实践中出现的问题。     

地空导弹发控系统寿命预测的组合模型

将灰色系统理论和BP神经网络有效地结合起来,建立了灰色BP神经网络的组合预测模型,并采用遗传算法对该模型进行优化。为了验证优化后模型的有效性,采用灰色BP神经网络的预测结果进行对比分析。实际数据的预测结果表明,优化之后的模型比单独采用灰色BP神经网络,具有更小的均方差(MSE,Mean Square Error),对发控系统剩余寿命(RUL,Remaining Useful Life)也具有更高的预测精度。     

新征程军事指导理论创新发展

十八大以来,习主席关于国防和军队建设重要论述,体现了我党军事指导理论的创新发展,既是习主席治国理政思想在军事领域的重要体现,也处处体现了辩证唯物主义的思想方法。学习贯彻习主席关于国防和军队建设的重要论述,必须牢牢把握其思想精华,把意志和力量凝聚到实现中国梦强军梦上来,推动国防和军队建设的创新发展。     

Model Versions and Fast Algorithms for Network Epidemiology

Network epidemiology has become a core framework for investigating the role of human contact patterns in the spreadingof infectious diseases. In network epidemiology, one represents the contact structure as a network of nodes（individuals） connected bylinks（sometimes as a temporal network where the links are not continuously active） and the disease as a compartmental model（whereindividuals are assigned states with respect to the disease and follow certain transition rules between the states）. In this paper, we discussfast algorithms for such simulations and also compare two commonly used versions,one where there is a constant recovery rate（the numberof individuals that stop being infectious per time is proportional to the number of such people）;the other where the duration of the diseaseis constant. The results show that, for most practical purposes, these versions are qualitatively the same.     

高校思想政治理论课程管理初探

高校思想政治理论课程管理具有丰富的内涵和广阔的外延,是高校思想政治理论课程建设中一个最基本、最核心的话题,也是一个崭新的研究领域。当前高校思想政治理论课程管理存在管理理论缺乏、发展缓慢,管理结构分化、目标偏离,管理力量薄弱、意识淡薄,管理手段单一、效率低下等弊端。因此,高校思想政治理论课程管理变革是一个复杂的系统工程,变革的内容包括：重点加强课程管理方法论研究,构建共享、整合型课程领导体制,优化课程管理队伍素质结构,构建多元、综合的课程管理手段体系。     

关于重演理论的实证调查与分析

重演理论是数学史与数学教育整合的重要理论基础.通过调查学生对负数大小的识别,发现数学的历史发展过程与学生的认知过程有着一定的相似性,可以利用重演理论来构建数学课程.一方面,运用重演理论反思教学内容编排的合理性,对知识的呈现顺序进行更为合理的设计,对课程的整体设置进行更适切的把握;另一方面,在针对某一知识点进行教学设计时,通过研究数学史,对学生的认知障碍进行预先分析,结合史实资源开拓学生思维,使学生对知识的理解更加多元、更加深入.
