卷首语

俗话里“瑞雪兆丰年”，接踵而至的都是好彩头：“五谷登丰收”“春风迎新岁”“神州万象新”……那么，2018年，中国及世界各地降下的初雪，显然将带给我们的不啻是新年满满的福音。然而，大雪和暴雪亦导致了交通停滞、建筑物坍塌、人员伤亡，以及有的地区农作物受损，于是，“瑞雪”便被称作了“雪灾”。显然，大自然在赐予我们福音的同时，亦给人类制造了麻烦；瑞雪在其纯净美丽的外表和温暖的羽翼下，却蕴藏着杀伤和破坏的能量。

大自然“祸福相依”生动的现身，足以让当下处于科技高歌猛进社会的人类牢记大自然运行不可违逆的规律，思考如何进一步理解宇宙本体万事万物间之阴阳辩证。而对于研究人类历史、信仰、世界观、情感、道德和美感的人文学科的启示，则是明白坚守思想的辩证才能掌握探寻真相的法宝。从而，我们对于人类文化艺术历史或现状的研究，无论是肯定，还是质疑，或是否定之否定，都应秉承“实事求是”的精神，努力追求充满辩证的“真”“实”之结论。

如何解决这个问题？我觉得，要先从调结构做起。关于结构调整，首先必须改变机关化的倾向。调研中，武汉市关于新招录的人员都要到基层先干两年再回机关的做法，十分符合实际。没有基层经验的人，可以把组织关系、行政关系放在机关，那没问题，但是人你得下基层，到基层实践、接受锻炼，这样不仅会改变我们整个司法行政系统的队伍结构，也会增加基层力量。机关干部扎扎实实在基层呆两年，来了新的同志再下去呆两年。这样的做法，首先确保基层两年的力量有了保证，其次把这种做法形成一种制度，基层力量不足的情况就会不断得到改善。

勿忘，大自然的警示……

Preface

As the saying goes, “A timely snow promises a good harvest.” It is a good sign of other good things — “an abundant harvest of f ve grains,” “spring breeze welcoming the New Year,” and “everything being new in China.” However, the f rst snow in 2018 in China and around the world did not merely bring us the good news of the New Year.Heavy snowfalls and blizzards have caused traf fic stagnation, building collapses, casualties,and damage to crops in some areas.As a result, “a timely snow” became “a disaster of snow.” Obviously, nature gives trouble to mankind while bringing luck.Under its pure and beautiful appearance and warm wings, the timely snow hides its energy of killing and destruction.

俄国著名心理学家巴甫洛夫说：“快乐是养生的唯一秘诀。”有一件真事：“文革”中一位音乐老师和一位中文老师被下放到农村劳改，干一样的活儿——铡草。艰苦的劳动和精神折磨使中文老师去世了，而音乐老师过得好好的。

Nature vividly demonstrates that “fortune and misfortune are neighbors.” It makes the mankind with triumphs of science and technology keep in mind the inviolability of law of nature and ref ect on how to further understand the yin-yang dialect between all things in the universe.The enlightenment to the humanities that study human history, beliefs, worldviews, emotions,morality, and aesthetics is that sticking to the dialectics of ideas is the key to approach the truth.Therefore,our study of culture, arts, history, or the status quo of mankind, no matter it is to af f rm, query, or deny them,should be based on the spirit of seeking truth from facts and strive to pursue the conclusion of dialectical “truth”and “reality.”

Do not forget nature’s warning...
