对广州亚运安保中突发事件应对的思考

亚运会作为全亚洲人民的体育盛会,安全是成功的第一要素。在亚运会特定的时间和场所中如有诸如恐怖袭击、灾害事故等重大突发事件发生,无疑会给我国的国际声誉带来极大的负面影响。从目前广州市存在的突发事件的可能诱发因素来看,广州亚运组委会应当尽快建立专职应急指挥机构,制定应急响应预案,建立信息平台,构建全民防御体系,并同时进行综合模拟实战演习。     

The Past as Prologue in Life Extension

Aging research may significantly lengthen human life spans in the foreseeable future. This paper argues that we do not need to wait until this happens to prepare for the dislocations that may result. Increased longevity over the past century has already raised urgent, unresolved issues of equity, social cohesion, and human dignity. These developments, and our past experiences in dealing with them, provide a basis for revisiting the basic questions raised by all attempts to extend human life: what does life mean, and why is it worth extending?

A Capture–Recapture Model to Estimate the Size of Criminal Populations and the Risks of Detection in a Marijuana Cultivation Industry

Originally developed in biology, capture-recapture methodologies have increasingly been integrated into the study of human populations to provide estimates of the size of “hidden populations.” This paper explores the validity of one capture-recapture model—Zelterman’s (1988) truncated Poisson estimator—used to estimate the size of the marijuana cultivation industry in Quebec, Canada. The capture–recapture analysis draws on arrest data to estimate the number of marijuana growers “at risk of being arrested” for a period of five years (1998–2002). Estimates are provided for growers involved in two different techniques: (1) soil-based growing, and (2) hydroponics. In addition, the study develops an original method to estimate the prevalence of cultivation sites “at risk of detection.” A first set of findings shows that the cultivation industry is substantial; the estimated prevalence of growers compares to estimates of marijuana dealers in the province. Capture–recapture estimates are also used to compare the risks of being arrested for different types of offenders. Results indicate that hydroponic growers—those involved in large scale and sophisticated sites—face lower enforcement-related risks than growers involved in smaller enterprises. The significance of these findings is discussed in the context of the widespread development, both in Europe and in North America, of a successful domestic production-driven, rather than importation-driven, marijuana trade.

当下国际金融监管法律制度改革的焦点与问题

由美国次贷危机引发的国际金融危机爆发后,国际社会出台的金融改革方案都把国际金融监管法律制度的改革作为整个金融改革的不可或缺的有机组成部分,这是金融全球化条件下防控金融风险和危机的需要和必然反映。从目前来看,加强和健全国际监管规则和标准、健全国际监管责任的划分、建立国际金融监管机构等方面,是国际金融监管法律制度改革的焦点。国际金融监管法律制度的改革关系着国际间利益的分配,我国对每一项国际金融监管法律制度的改革都应视其情况,研究和采取恰当的策略。     

敏感个人信息保护的特殊制度逻辑及其规制策略

敏感个人信息因其对个人的人身和财产安全具有极端重要性,需要特别的法律保护。我国现行立法对敏感个人信息的特别保护存在制度供给不足。《个人信息保护法》虽秉持对一般个人信息和敏感个人信息区别规制的立法思路,但有关敏感个人信息特别保护的规范较为简略。从我国敏感个人信息保护的实践需求及域外立法经验来看,敏感个人信息保护在"知情同意"的适用、法定处理事由的明确、技术治理的实现、损害认定的完善等方面应有区别于一般个人信息保护的特殊制度逻辑。相应地,敏感个人信息保护也应有区别于一般个人信息保护的特殊规制策略。     

政治风险:成因、特征和治理——学习习近平总书记关于防范政治风险的重要论述

党的十八大特别是十九大以来,针对政治建设中存在的突出问题,习近平高瞻远瞩地提出"防范政治风险"重大命题。这一命题给我们科学把握政治风险的成因、特征和治理指明了方向。国内外发展环境蕴含着的不确定性,成为政治风险萌生的综合成因。政治风险属于非显性风险,具有隐蔽性、多源性、致命性和长期性特征,但政治风险并不等同于政治危机。如果治理得当,我们仍可把风险压力及时转化为发展动力。政治风险的治理关键要以制度建设为总抓手,不断推进风险治理现代化,实现政治权威、政治能力和政治活力的有机统一。习近平相关重要论述,为我们今后防范化解政治风险提供了基本原则和重要遵循。     

信用销售的若干法律问题

在金融危机背景下,开展信用销售成为拉动内需、扩大消费的有效手段之一.由于信用销售是企业通过分期付款、延期付款等方式进行销售的交易方式,对处于债权人地位的企业而言,最直接的法律风险就是货款的安全.在风险发生后,尽快采取有效的救济手段无疑成为减少损失最直接、最有力的方法.     

我国公共安全体系风险与对策研究

加强公共安全体系建设,完善社会管理,是关系我国社会、经济协调发展的全局性的战略问题。当前,我国公共安全趋势向好,总体安全,但风险高发,存在组织体系不健全、防控不严、保障乏力、文化滞后等问题。应从公共安全的组织体系、防控体系、保障体系和文化体系着手,推动建立主动防控与应急处置相结合、传统方法与现代手段相结合的公共安全体系,为实现可持续发展和建设社会主义和谐社会战略提供可靠保障。     

Detention under the Mental Health Act: balancing rights,risks and needs for services

Mental health law has to balance considerations of both justice, and health and welfare. In the political climate of the 1990s mental health services have become targeted on those with serious mental illness, to address the objectives of containing risks and limiting service expenditure. This paper identifies that increasing rates of detention under the Mental Health Act through the 1990s in a particular region, disproportionately involve longer-term detentions (under section 3), men, and people with serious mental illnesses. Those detained are likely to experience social difficulties. Changes in legislation are imminent, and the paper concludes that thought should be given to the amount of statutory intervention in the lives of seriously mentally ill people, and to the principle of reciprocity in relation to those coerced for lesser periods. Services should seek to address the issues of social exclusion which are reflected in the circumstances of those detained.
