Chinese View

Since the 1950s, police departments have been concerned with police public relations. In order to improve these relations, the Ministry of Public Security did a lot of work. In the 1950s and early 1960s, the relations were more harmonious. Since the 1980s, the relationship has got worse. The main reasons are: (1) The serious social security order situation has forced police departments to distance themselves from the public; (2) Police are forced to do non-police work; (3) Social changes also serve to further distance police from the public; (4) Police departments cannot adjust themselves to the needs of the current situation; (5) Police misconduct is the most important factor to harm the relations in China. In response to these problems police departments have taken the following measures: (1) Strengthened education and training; (2) Improved regulations and discipline to control police conduct; (3) Reinforced inspection and supervision of police; (4) Persistently launched anti-corruption campaigns; (5) Delivered good services to residents.

Labour Camp

This chapter examines the life experiences of counter-revolutionaries and ultra-rightists in the Xingkaihu labour reform complex. It was the mass persecution of the 1950s and the subsequent shortage of prison facilities that prompted the boom of labour camps in the northeast, including the establishment of Xingkaihu, a colony directly administered by the Beijing Public Security Bureau. In Xingkaihu, student inmates who were mentally or ideologically unyielding were more assertive than others in articulating their opinions, resisting thought reform, and refusing to entirely submit to camp cadres. The chapter shows that the CCP practice of mixing political prisoners with criminal prisoners in labour camps turned out to be quite insidious, enabling the police to use the latter to monitor and discipline the former.

A description of two cases from my time as a school psychologist in the middle of the 1950s forms the background to the following question: Has anything important happened since then in psychological research to help us to a better understanding of how and why individuals think, feel, act, and react as they do in real life and how they develop over time? The studies serve as a background for some general propositions about the nature of the phenomena that concerns us in developmental research, for a summary description of the developments in psychological research over the last 40 years as I see them, and for some suggestions about future directions.

Abstract:Since the 1950s, national networks for the surveillance of influenza have been progressively implemented in several countries. New epidemiological arguments have triggered changes in order to increase the sensitivity of existent early warning systems and to strengthen the communications between European networks. The WHO project CARE Telematics, which collects clinical and virological data of nine national networks and sends useful information to public health administrations, is presented. From the results of the 1993-94 season, the benefits of the system are discussed. Though other telematics networks in this field already exist, it is the first time that virological data, absolutely essential for characterizing the type of an outbreak, are timely available by other countries. This argument will be decisive in case of occurrence of a new strain of virus (shift), such as the Spanish flu in 1918. Priorities are now to include other existing European surveillance networks.
