The persuasive role of the past: Policy feedback and citizens' acceptance of information communication technologies during the COVID-19 pandemic in China

How can the enforcement of policies in the past influence a society's future adoption of information communication technologies (ICTs)? In this paper, we tackle this question by exploring how past e-governance policies influence citizens' willingness to use the health QR code, which is a COVID-19 tracing app widely used in China's pandemic control. Past policies regarding smart-city development in China involve two aspects: the construction of electronic infrastructure and the applications of specific technologies. Empirical analysis based on a nationwide dataset in China suggests that past policies exhibit persuasive effects and influence citizens' acceptance of the health QR code. Specifically, e-governance applications in cities significantly enhance citizens' acceptance through the demonstration of their usefulness. However, the construction of e-governance infrastructure per se does not have the same impact on citizens' acceptance. By connecting citizens' acceptance of new technology with past e-governance policies, the study illustrates a nuanced policy feedback mechanism through which past policies can substantially reshape public opinion by policy outcomes.     

Building of a Dissension Settlement Mechanism in the China's Environmental Code

It is not currently appropriate to make detailed provisions on an ecological and environmental dissension settlement mechanism in the would-be China's environmental code (Code), given the prevailing mechanism status in China. Such provisions need to be appropriately selected under the philosophy of moderate codification, and various methods should be adopted according to the actual situation of the specific system. Contradictions between various systems should be removed in the compiling of this Code, which eventually would make an ecological and environmental dissension settlement mechanism with complementary functions and procedural coordination, ensuring that ecological and environmental dissensions can be smoothly resolved within the updated framework, and damaged interests can be fully remedied.

The Analysis of 3D Printer Dust for Forensic Applications,,

3D printers are becoming increasingly efficient and economical, and thus more widespread and easily accessible to consumers and businesses. They have been used to print nefarious objects such as guns and suppressors. Previous research has documented the release of dust particles during the printing process; however, little has been written about the morphology and chemical features that define the dust emitted by these printers. This study was undertaken to recover, analyze, and identify the dust produced during the printing process in the context of forensic trace evidence analysis. Samples were collected from a variety of 3D fused deposition modeler printers, representing both consumer and commercial grade models. This work focused on printers that use thermoplastic filaments composed of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) or polylactic acid (PLA), two of the most commonly used filament polymers. Swabs were used to collect dust within the printer chamber and then processed to isolate the dust particles. Particles produced from ABS filaments are most easily recognized via light microscopy through a combination of color, morphology, and fluorescence. The composition of these particles can be confirmed through analysis by either FTIR or Raman microspectroscopy. These methods can also be used to identify ABS fillers and pigments within the printer dust particles. In contrast, dust from PLA printers consistently contained finer, submicron-sized particles that could be observed by field emission scanning electron microscopy. Because the size of the particles precludes their identification using vibrational spectroscopy methods, pyrolysis-GC-MS was used to confirm the presence of PLA.

民法转型的法源缺陷：形式化、制定法优位及其校正

近代以来的民法典编纂促成了民法由综合整体法向一般私法的转型,推动了民法体系边界及对体系外有限开放性的形成,配合了民族国家形成及其与民法社会整体对应关系的建立,但也就此预埋风险。随着民法法源的形式化、法源中制定法优越地位的形成、对以商法为代表的传统多元社会法源的消解,民法的社会组织功能被削弱,国家借助特别民法等手段对民法的整体渗透日益不可量、不可控。危机的实质是,民法的体系化成就掩盖了自身的法源缺陷,反而损及私法自治这一现代民法自定义核心价值的实现。危机的根源是民法控权能力与民主自觉的丧失。民法法源的完善,应向正式宪法移交部分社会整合功能;通过将以商法为代表的亚社会法源渐进释出、拓展司法对社会问题与政治问题的解决途径等方法,提高民法的社会自组织能力,恢复民法对非官方公域的参与调整能力,实现通过民法的社会控制。在此基础上,民法教义学方能安全担当现代民法学的核心。     

论实行行为的概念构造与机能

实行行为的概念必须从形式和实质两方面理解。从形式上看,实行行为是我国刑法分则条文规定的行为;而在实质上实行行为必须是对法益侵害具有现实危险的行为。在我国,实行行为可以区分为普通的实行行为、组织性的实行行为、帮助性的实行行为、教唆性的实行行为以及预备性的实行行为。从机能上考察,实行行为具有犯罪化机能、犯罪个别化机能以及界限机能。     

存在:从迷惘到自由——海明威与存在主义

作为“迷惘的一代”的代言人 ,海明威以自身的存在经验在一系列作品中探索了人类生存的迷惘及其出路。本文从存在主义的主要命题出发 ,在存在的三个层次上——存在的迷惘、存在的探索、存在的自由 ,探讨了海明威英雄对存在的认识过程。他们在认识到价值沦丧的社会中生存的迷惘和虚空后 ,没有沉沦 ,而是直面荒诞的人生 ,在行动中认识自我 ,探索新的存在 ,最终凝练出了自信、刚毅、强悍的“重压下的优雅”精神。海明威在赋予作家自由的同时 ,还给予了人物、读者以自由。他的思想基本上是存在主义的 ,但比存在主义乐观、肯定。
