Legislation and educational change: the struggle for social justice and quality in China's compulsory schooling

Whether a law can bring about change has been an important topic of debate in the literatures of law, sociology and education. With reference to the 2006 revision of compulsory schooling legislation in China, this article examines the functions and limits of the use of law to effect educational change. It explores why and how China continues to rely on instrumental use of the law to bring about change and rectify problems that the previous legislation did not. The article shows that law can be used as a tool for social justice that helps defend children's right to access basic quality education. However, the realization of legislative change requires favourable economic, social and/or cultural conditions, the support of extra-legal means and a concerted effort by all actors in interpreting and enforcing the law.

二战中英国的"超级机密"

英国记者安东尼·布朗写的《兵不厌诈》一书中,在叙述第二次世界大战英军与德军在北非战场决战时有这样一段话:"阿拉曼战役一开始,隆美尔 军队失败的命运就注定了.……隆美尔所采取的每一个重大军事行动都被'超级机密'暴露.隆美尔成了最没有希望的将军了.他给希特勒的一系列密电,蒙哥马利都通过'超级机密'看到了……而希特勒发给隆美尔的复电,蒙哥马利有时甚至比隆美尔看到得还要早……"     

"We Live in a Country of UNHCR"—Refugee Protests and Global Political Society

Between September and December 2005 over 3,000 Sudanese refugees held a sit-in demonstration at the Mustapha Mahmoud Square in Cairo, Egypt, which is located directly across from the offices of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). We analyze the events of the refugee sit-in as an act of global political society, one that saw people outside the realm of the political making demands for recognition and a say in the solutions being developed to relieve their plight. We argue that the sit-in at Cairo was fundamentally a disagreement between the refugees and the UNHCR over the politics of protection, care, and mobility. The article analyzes the strategies through which the refugees named their "population of care" in ways that countered the UNHCR's governmental strategies to classify the Sudanese refugee population in Cairo. We propose the concept of "global political society" as a way of thinking about global political life from the perspective of those who are usually denied the status of political beings. Global political society is a highly ambiguous site where power relations are enacted, taken and retaken by various actors, but in ways that do not foreclose opportunities for refugees to actively reformulate the governmentalities of care and protection.

Transcarceration: Notes on a psychoanalytically-informed theory of social practice in the criminal justice and mental health systems

The application of Lacanian psychoanalytic semiotics to the intersecting categories of criminal justice and mental health is relatively novel. In this paper the phenomenon of transcarceration or the repeated channeling of disordered defendants (subjects) through institutional regimes of discipline and coercion is outlined. Attention is directed at the intra-psychic and intersubjective mechanisms responsible for the structuring of discourse. Lacan's schematization on the constitution of master narratives through the Discourse of the Master is also delineated. The author concludes by demonstrating how transcarceration is fundamentally about language and privileged speech patterns which agents of both systems as well as subjects themselves perpetuate.

对公安机关目标管理的几点思考

公安机关实行目标管理,经过十余年的实践与探索,基本上形成了比较符合公安实际的目标管理体系。根据我国加入WTO后的新形势、新情况,改革和创新目标管理体系,必须科学设定目标管理项目,量化、细化、硬化目标任务,建立高效的目标考核体系。要紧紧围绕公安队伍管理长效机制,以等级管理为核心,增强奖惩激励的透明度,切准奖惩的时机,把握奖惩的导向性,进一步提高民警的综合素质。
