Turkey and Russia in a shifting global order: cooperation,conflict and asymmetric interdependence in a turbulent region

The current global political economy is characterised by the intensifying economic interaction of BRICS and ‘near BRICS’ economies, with emerging powers increasing their influence in neighbouring regions. The growing partnership between Turkey and Russia constitutes a useful case study for examining this transformation, in which Western supremacy and US hegemony are under increasing challenge. Turkish–Russian relations shed light on broader themes in global political economy. First, significant economic interdependence may be generated among states with different political outlooks, in the form of loose regional integration schemes driven by bilateral relations between key states and supporting private actors or interests. Second, growing economic interdependence may coexist with continued political conflict and geopolitical rivalry, as indicated by the Syrian and Ukrainian crises. An important strategy that emerges is the tendency to compartmentalise economic issues and geopolitical rivalries in order to avoid negative spill-over effects. This facilitates the coexistence of extensive competition with deepening cooperation, as reflected in relations in the field of energy.

美国证券欺诈赔偿检诉制度对我国的启示

美国的证券欺诈赔偿检诉制度是由检察官提起私诉的做法,这种私诉形式具有强化市场公开竞争、恢复公平交易秩序,促进社会财富实现最大化的价值.从法律经济学的角度看,检察官提起证券欺诈赔偿诉讼可以最大限度节省管理诉讼和弥补错误疏漏的成本,并且在社会收益和诉讼效率方面都有所提升,能够最大限度恢复交易秩序、促进社会财富的再分配.反观我国的证券欺诈赔偿民事诉讼,在诉讼成本控制、社会收益获取、诉讼效率提升以及法律供需均衡方面都有待提高.为此,借鉴美国的证券欺诈赔偿检诉制度,探索我国的检察机关提起证券欺诈公益诉讼,是解决证券欺诈赔偿纠纷的一条新路.

China's Approach to BRICS

The economic rise of the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) inevitably leads to a redistribution of power in the international system. Chinese leaders today accord a considerable priority to this group, and there are elements of realism, liberalism/institutionalism and constructivism in their approach. This article intends to study China's policy towards BRICS and examine the above elements so as to better understand how the Chinese leadership perceives China's role in the international system, and how it seeks to articulate its interests and enhance its influence.     

全球化与国际老龄化政策——基于社会性别视野的考察

国际社会对"人口老龄化是一个社会性别问题"的认识和理解,是伴随全球化进程不断提速而逐渐加深的。在过去数十年里,对老年妇女和老龄化过程中性别差异的关注夹杂在各种发展干预中进入国际政策框架,并经由一系列全球大会得到了广泛张扬。20世纪90年代中叶前后可以说是国际政策话语和政策干预转变的一个分水岭。由于全球化浪潮的激荡,国际层面的政策回应逐渐从狭隘地针对发达国家的个人福祉问题转向关注世界各地妇女整个生命周期的脆弱性和不公平待遇,并进而对老龄化问题采取以权利为本的策略。本文旨在从社会性别视野对全球化时代国际老龄化政策的演进作出一个系统梳理。     

去极端化过程中偏执认知心理控制

处在贫困背景、教育不足背景下的某些人,特别是某些年轻人,容易受极端主义亚文化洗脑,发生归因偏差,产生认知心理偏执。偏执认知心理是极端化的心理基础,极端化是极端主义的行为基础。从某种意义上说,去极端化过程就是偏执认知心理控制过程。应通过加强认知载体、平台以及极端主义人员的控制,净化认知环境,阻断偏执认知心理产生的消极环境因素;通过满足正常的物质和精神需要,消除偏执认知心理产生的消极情绪因素;通过知识灌输、情境教育等手段,矫正偏执认知心理产生的消极意志因素。通过环境、情绪和意志"三管"齐下,最终实现对偏执认知心理的控制,达成去极端化和消灭恐怖主义的目标。
