论贿赂外国公职人员、国际公共组织官员罪

贿赂外国公职人员、国际公共组织官员罪是《联合国反腐败公约》所确立的国际犯罪,它包括对外国公职人员、国际公共组织官员行贿罪和外国公职人员、国际公共组织官员受贿罪两个具体罪名。从理论与实践角度考虑,我国刑法中应增设对外国公职人员、国际公共组织官员行贿罪,而不宜增设外国公职人员、国际公共组织官员罪受贿罪。对外国公职人员、国际公共组织官员行贿罪应置于我国刑法典分则第二章破坏社会主义市场经济秩序罪中,贿赂范围应扩大至财物、财产性利益和非财产性利益。     

“所有权-直接支配权”的变异

传统民法理论认为,所有权是直接支配物的权利.随着社会的发展进步,生产力的不断提高,所有权的这一特征已经出现变异.当代社会所有权的特征,在更多的场合和更大的范围上呈现出由直接支配物到间接支配物、由对物的支配到对人的行为的支配的发展趋势.所有权析支配权的观念已难以完全适应现代经济生活的需要,应当进行新的表述.

Isolation of the DNA minisatellite probe MZ 1.3 and its application to DNA 'fingerprinting' analysis

A minisatellite probe, MZ 1.3, detecting hypervariable fragment patterns was isolated from a human genomic library. A repetitive sequence of 27 bp length was identified which is contained in the probe approx. 40 times. The MZ 1.3 repeat shows variable homology of 53-73% to the repetitive sequence of the protein III gene of the bacteriophage M13 genome. Polymorphic restriction fragment patterns were found with MZ 1.3 using the enzymes Hinf I, BstN I, Hae III, Mbo I, PstI/Pvu II, and Rsa I. An average of 18 polymorphic fragments was observed using Hinf I as enzyme. The band sharing frequency after Hinf I digestion among unrelated individuals was determined to be 23.8 +/- 7.2%. An example for the application of MZ 1.3 to paternity testing in an incest case is given. The probe can be used with radioactive or non-radioactive detection systems. An approach is presented to compare polymorphic fragment patterns from individuals obtained by independent gel runs on the basis of relative band positions (RBP) and calculated in a computerized analysis.     

Thirty Years of Social Science in Supreme Court Criminal Cases*

The Supreme Court early took note of extralegal, “social science” materials in Muller v. Oregon (1908), and a half-century later made specific reference to social science authorities in the famous footnote 11 of Brown v. Board of Education (1954). Since Brown, much has been written about the Supreme Court's use of social science research evidence, but there has been little systematic study of that use. Those writing on the subject commonly focus on areas of law such as jury size, where social science has been used, and have generally assumed that social science information has been utilized in Supreme Court decisions with increasing regularity. Surprisingly little is known, however, about either the justices' baseline use of social science authorities, or many other aspects of their uses of social science information. The focus here is on the citation of social science research evidence in a sample of 240 criminal cases decided during the 30 years between the Supreme Court's 1958 and 1987 Terms. The resulting portrait contributes to a fuller understanding of the justices' use of social science materials, and may ultimately help promote more effective utilization of social science research evidence in Supreme Court decisions.

CRIME IN EMERGING ADULTHOOD*

The extent to which local life circumstances influence criminal activity has been the focus of much theoretical debate. Although empirical research has been initiated, it remains limited. Herein, we use data on 524 serious offenders from the California Youth Authority for a seven‐year post‐parole period to examine the relationship between changes in local life circumstances and criminal activity. We extend previous research by employing a statistical model that accounts for the joint distribution of violent and nonviolent crime during the late teens and twenties in order to present information on patterns of criminal activity during a newly recognized developmental period of the life course, “emerging adulthood.”     

明清小说批评中的情理观念

情理（情、人情、世情、性情、人情物理）是明清小说批评的重要范畴之一，情，指人的主观情感，有时偏重于指男女之情；理，事理，主要是指事物的客观规律。大部分小说评点家追求情与理的融合与统一，以情理作为评价作品、臧否人物的重要（甚至是唯一）标准。本主要情理观念在小说的创作目的与艺术效果、作品的真实性、人物性格塑造等三个方面的表现。
