试论我国民法取得时效制度的立法构建

取得时效制度并不违背我国的传统道德,而且具有有利于民事法律体系的和谐统一;有利于确定产权归属,解决产权纠纷;有利于加强与世界各国的经济交流和贸易往来等多项功能和作用。因此,取得时效制度在我国立法中应加以确立和构建。     

论我国物权请求权诉讼时效制度的立法选择——兼评《中华人民共和国民法(草案)》的相关规定

我国《民法通则》未明确规定诉讼时效的适用范围 ,学者们对于物权请求权是否应适用诉讼时效也存在争议。本文对物权请求权诉讼时效制度从价值基础和逻辑角度进行了考察和分析 ,认为 :排除妨害、消除危险以及恢复原状等三种请求权应适用诉讼时效 ,而返还原物请求权与确认物权请求权则不应当适用诉讼时效 ;《中华人民共和国民法 (草案 )》对物权请求权诉讼时效制度的设计有欠妥当 ,应予以修改和完善。     

关于民法法典化的一点思考

关于中国民法典的制定在理论界已经讨论很久了,现在民法典在立法上正一步步走向实现,对于很多支持制定民法典的法律人和其他各界人士来说这是一件令人欣喜的事情。相比发达国家,中国的民法思想启蒙晚,根基薄弱,这都为民法典制定产生了障碍,但制定出一部好的民法典就好似春天播下一粒希望的种子,时节来临它就会生根发芽,枝繁叶茂,给法治的大地带来一片绿。     

日本“旧民法”和明治民法

“旧民法”和明治民法是日本民法近代化道路上两块最重要的里程碑,两者既有着千丝万缕的联系,又存在着方方面面的差异。本文分析了两者的相似与不同之处,并揭示了各自的特点。     

民法基本原则研究——在民法理念与民法规范之间

民法的理念不应是单一的而应是多元的,其理念可以包括：民法的精神理念、民法的形式理念、民法的全息理念、民法的适域理念、民法的权利分类理念。由此居于母体地位民法理念所决定,未来我国民法典应当确立如下六项基本原则：主体平等原则、私法自治原则、权利保护原则、诚实信用原则、公序良俗原则、权利滥用禁止原则,各项民法基本原则都有自己特有的功能并在此基础上相互依存。民事法律规范受民法基本原则的指导并贯彻民法基本原则的意图。     

民法的现状及其展望——从世界的角度

近年来,德国、法国、日本等国均对民法进行了一系列的修改。而民法指向的目标也即民法所追求的价值、理念逐步向和平、人权、社会正义、民主主义、国际交流等方向发展。把握世界民法学的现状及未来发展方向,无疑有助于我们的民事立法及民法学的发展。     

现代民法视野下的中国民法定位——民法私法性及其在现代社会的挑战

民法是私法，它以规范私主体、私权利、私行为、私责任和自力救济为主要特征；民法随时代不同而有不同特征，作为私法传统民法的基本特征在现代社会已经被大大地修正。现代民法实质上是已经商法化、甚至公法化的民法。但是，由于中国缺失民法传统。因而尽管世界民法已经走向现代民法．但是，中国的民法仍然应当坚持公私法的划分，在民法是私法理念上建构中国的民法，同时在确立民事主体地位、明确民事权利的基础上，建立限制权利行使，规范主体行为的商法、经济法体系。这样的定位对于中国法律建设具有重要的意义。     

民法理念新解

民法理念是民法的基本问题,也是民法领域一个颇具争议的问题。本文对民法理念问题进行了全方位的探讨,涉及民法理念的概念、民法理念与相关范畴的关系、在现今社会的定位以及实现问题。     

民法本位新论

刚刚过去的20世纪是一个极度动荡、急剧变化的、各种矛盾冲突空前激化和各种严重的社会问题层出不穷的极不稳定的世纪。规模浩大的民主运动、民权运动、女权运动等频繁发生。新的历史条件对民法研究提出了新的挑战,迫使人们变革法律思想和观念,探寻更为合理的民法制度和民法体系,因此引发了民法现代化的问题。本文试作相关探讨。     

IMPACT OF A YOUTH SERVICE CENTER

The influences of a Youth Service Center are assessed in two South Philadelphia police districts and two pairs of selected comparison districts, using Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) and the Youth Center's caseload arrest data. UCR data indicate a slight change in arrest rates within the selected target districts and fluctuating rates within comparison districts. Data for Youth Center Clients show a 26% decrease in arrests during a oneyear period, particularly for white youths. but analysis of other important factors that may have an impact on arrest rates suggests thar it is impossible at this time to demonstrate that the Youth Service Center is significantly decreasing official juvenile delinquency.     

SERVICE UTILIZATION AND SATISFACTION WITH SERVICE PROVIDERS IN VICTIMS OF RAPE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT

The aim of the present study was to investigate service utilization and satisfaction with service delivery among victims of rape and sexual assault. The victims completed a questionnaire comprising questions about whether they felt they received the appropriate help following an assault and whether they were met with positive staff attitudes within the public treatment system. The victims completed the questionnaire at three different time points： one month, three months and six months following an assault. Results showed that a high number of victims were satisfied with the support and treatment they received from psychologist and other part of the public help system. However, a high number of victims also reported receiving insufficient help from the social service and the police. Results are discussed in terms of consequences for victim recovery and the importance of receiving feedback from the victims in order to improve public service provision for victims of rape and sexual assault.     

PAROLEE RECIDIVISM IN CALIFORNIA: THE EFFECT OF NEIGHBORHOOD CONTEXT AND SOCIAL SERVICE AGENCY CHARACTERISTICS*

We studied a sample of reentering parolees in California in 2005–2006 to examine whether the social structural context of the census tract, as well as nearby tracts, along with the relative physical closeness of social service providers affects serious recidivism resulting in imprisonment. We found that a 1 standard deviation increase in the presence of nearby social service providers (within 2 miles) decreases the likelihood of recidivating 41 percent and that this protective effect was particularly strong for African American parolees. This protective effect was diminished by overtaxed services (as proxied by potential demand). We found that higher concentrated disadvantage and social disorder (as measured by bar and liquor store capacity) in the tract increases recidivism and that higher levels of disadvantage and disorder in nearby tracts increase recidivism. A 1 standard deviation increase in the concentrated disadvantage of the focal neighborhood and the surrounding neighborhoods increases the likelihood of recidivating by 26 percent. The findings suggest that the social context to which parolees return (both in their own neighborhood and in nearby neighborhoods), as well as the geographic accessibility of social service agencies, play important roles in their successful reintegration.     

PROBLEM PROFILES OF AT-RISK YOUTH IN TWO SERVICE PROGRAMS: A MULTI-GROUP, EXPLORATORY LATENT CLASS ANALYSIS

Baseline data collected in two brief intervention projects (BI-Court and Truancy Project) were used to assess similarities and differences in subgroups of at-risk youth. Classifications of these subgroups were based on their psychosocial characteristics (e.g., substance use). Multi-group latent class analysis (LCA) identified two BI-Court subgroups of youth, and three Truant subgroups. These classes can be viewed as differing along two dimensions, substance use involvement and emotional/behavioral issues. Equality tests of means across the latent classes for BI-Court and Truancy Project youths found significant differences that were consistent with their problem group classification. These findings highlight the importance of quality assessments and allocating appropriate services based on problem profiles of at-risk youth.
