Violent Punjab,quiescent Bengal,and the partition of India

Why did the Punjab bear the brunt of the mass violence and the migration that accompanied the partition of India? This paper makes the case for analytical eclecticism by showing that the following three explanations – centred respectively on democratisation, nationalism, and ideas; the commitment problem; and the security dilemma – account for the violence/migration in the different stages in the run-up to the partition of India. Instead of arguing that ‘everything mattered’, this paper elucidates the complex causality at work by demonstrating how these factors interacted with one another during the different stages leading to India’s partition.     

The politics of return: exploring the future of Syrian refugees in Jordan,Lebanon and Turkey

Abstract

Although the Syrian conflict continues, local and global stakeholders have already begun to consider the return of the six million refugees, especially as neither the option of local integration in the countries of first asylum nor that of resettlement to third countries is seen as a realistic possibility. Elaborating on the return debates in Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan, we relate the politicisation of this question to the growing acceptance of the option of voluntary and involuntary repatriation in the international refugee regime as well as to policies and public opinion. We argue, based on empirical fieldwork, that any debate about the return of Syrian refugees is problematic, since the conditions of safety, voluntariness and sustainability are not fulfilled. Further, returns should not be left entirely to the individual hosting states and actors in the region but should be carried out in collaboration with representative authorities in Syria and the mediation of international organisations upon full resolution of conflict.     

论私权之本质——兼论我国私法的建构基础

鉴于传统的权利本质学说均无法全面的指出权利的所有特征 ,对于权利本质之研究采要素解释学的方法较为合理 ,研究权利之本质实际上就是确定何种要素为最核心、最基础之要素 ,就是确定权利概念的中心词。私权之最核心和最基础的要素应为自由 ,这是由私权的产生、发展的历史所决定的 ,私法建构之权利本位要求私法建构应以自由为本位     

Beyond Rainforests: Urbanisation and Emigration among Lowland Indigenous Societies in Latin America

Indigenous societies across lowland Latin America have recently made impressive political and territorial gains by emphasising their stewardship of and attachment to particular rural landscapes. But surprising new censal and microdemographic evidence shows that these groups have simultaneously been developing a presence in domestic and foreign metropolises. Cities offer employment and advanced education opportunities as well as escape from rural conflicts. We suggest that the dynamics and outcomes of these migrations are distinct from those of other rural Latin Americans. By outlining specific areas in which migration, politics, and territory appear to be interlinked, we seek to stimulate research that engages with these processes and their implications for indigenous advocacy and migration theory.     

公司契约理论研究

公司虽然是一种企业组织 ,但是公司并非仅仅是一种法人格 ,它实际上是公司股东之间的一种契约 ,此种契约像一般民事契约一样是股东意思表示的合意 ,一旦具备契约的构成要件即对公司和公司股东产生法律上的约束力。这就是公司契约理论。公司契约理论的提出具有重大意义 ,将为我国公司的自由设立和市场经济的发展提供重要根据。我国公司法完全有必要采取该种理论。     

市场行为的法制基础与伦理导向

市场主体的自由不是绝对的,必须接受法制的约束和伦理的引导,本文从自由放任的市场经济原则谈起,分析了法制和伦理对市场行为的调整作用,并试图通过比较说明二者之间的关系。     

Stories as Lived Experience: Narratives in Forced Migration Research

Stories are part of everyday life and constitute means for actorsto express and negotiate experience. For researchers, they providea site to examine the meanings people, individually or collectively,ascribe to lived experience. Narratives are not transparentrenditions of ‘truth’ but reflect a dynamic interplaybetween life, experience and story. Placed in their wider socio-politicaland cultural contexts, stories can provide insights into howforced migrants seek to make sense of displacement and violence,re-establish identity in ruptured life courses and communities,or bear witness to violence and repression. The researcher mustpay particular attention to his/her own role in the productionof narrative data and the representation of lived experienceas text.     

论性的私法调整

私法对性保护的缺失导致对性权利保护的不足,性权利本质上是私权,私法应该对性权利加以调整并创设性人格权.性人格权由性自主权、生育权构成.创设了性人格权后,可以解决实践中许多问题如:婚内强奸问题、强奸后精神损害赔偿问题等.     

从霸权经济到国际经济机制——全球化背景下超国家干预经济模式的理性选择

全球化背景下,世界各国面临超国家干预经济的客观现实。超国家干预经济有霸权干预经济和国际经济机制干预两种模式。前者是传统的超国家干预模式,曾经促进过国际经济秩序的稳定和发展,但在理论和实践中均存在诸多弊端,如今已不符合国际经济发展的需要,逐渐为国际社会所抛弃;后者作为新的超国家干预经济手段,符合经济全球化发展的趋势,已被国际社会所广泛认同和接纳,理应作为未来超国家干预经济的模式。但国际经济机制干预模式仍存在诸多缺陷,应当完善其多元化设计,并推进其实现从自由化到社会化的转型,最终建立和谐世界经济环境。     

学术自由:侵权与救济

学术自由侵权与其他侵权行为具有共性,但与一般侵权行为相比,行为的主观方面和行为后果不是认定学术自由侵权的必备要素。从学术自由权成立的正当性出发,有三类限制或禁止学术自由的行为是应予允许的。在现代社会中,按照在实践中得到运用的广泛程度和实际效果,最重要的学术自由权救济机制包括宪法救济、一般诉讼救济以及通过结社进行的自力救济。
