“Tibetan Independence” Means Restoration of Theocracy

The theocratic system of government, a political form featuring the marriage of state power and religious authority, has been cast off by history as it is in conflict with such values as political democracy, civil rights, individual freedom as well as science and civilization, pursued by modern society. In essence, “Tibetan independence” or “autonomy of a Greater Tibet region”, advocated by the Dalai clique, means none other than the restoration of the theocratic system that reigned in Tibet 59 years ago to deprive the emancipated Tibetan serfs and slaves of their political rights and individual freedom and negate the results achieved in the democratic reform launched in Tibet after the Dalai Lama fled abroad in 1959, a reform designed to separate church from government. It is an attempt to bring about a retrogression of history in Tibet against the historical trend of human progress.

国际人权公约:人权价值和制度的普适化

国际人权公约体现了人权价值与制度的普适化。人权普适化经过了从话语人权到国际人权的历史演变。国际人权公约蕴含的人权普遍性包括人权主体的普遍资格、人权价值的普遍信奉、人权规范的普遍适用。当今国际人权公约的理论视野与西方关于人权与社会的价值预设有着千丝万缕的关系。其理论背景主要为普遍人性尊严的哲学基础、自然权利理论的智识背景、自由民主的普遍理想。

清末民初中英（印）关系中的“西藏问题”——清末民初中国政府维护西藏主权的努力

在国际资本主义从自由阶段发展到垄断阶段,争夺殖民地的矛盾空前尖锐的20世纪初,英国殖民主义图谋进一步侵略和独霸西藏。西藏成为这一时期中国和英国关系中的核心问题和外交斗争的焦点。外交上一贯妥协退让的晚清政府和民国初年政府,在西藏问题上虽然也曾一让再让,但是,还是做了一系列的努力以维护国家主权,终于使得西藏没有像外蒙古那样从中国分裂出去。

浅析小布什政府的对华人权外交

小布什上台后, 继续推行人权外交, 并把人权外交与反恐结合起来, 在对华政策上, 小布什一方面继续保持对华的人权攻势, 另一方面也强调与中国保持良好的伙伴关系, 尽量不让人权问题干扰中美关系的大局。小布什对华的人权外交从根本上说是为美国的国家利益服务的, 是美国力图遏制和防范中国的工具。在新世纪, 美国对华的人权外交是长期的, 但由于中美两国的共同利益和国际国内因素的制约, 中美在人权问题上的斗争有减弱的趋势。     

从孟子的仁义干涉思想看利比亚和叙利亚危机中的基本人权问题

不干涉内政是中国所倡导的国际秩序的一个基本原则,但在利比亚和叙利亚危机中这一原则正面临日益严峻的挑战.冷战结束后,西方主导的国际社会以人权干涉主权成为一种国际行为范式,并有得到越来越多发展中国家支持的趋势,这也使得中国外交面临一种两难困境.孟子在2000多年前齐燕战争时期关于仁义干涉的思想或许可以为我们提供一些有益的启示.     

国际人权问题及其在发展中国家的实践

人权问题是当代国际社会的一个重大问题。战后,发展中国家根据自身的国情和利益需要,赋予人权以新的内容,形成了与西方国家人权观不同的特点,而赋予人权生存权与发展权的内涵,是发展中国家实践人权的根本所在。作为发展中国家,中国政府一贯重视人权,维护和实行社会主义人权。中国坚持尊重主权与不干涉内政的国际法的基本原则,积极谋求现代国际人权的实现     

浅议人权保障与人权外交

人权与外交有联系 ,但属两个范畴。美国自卡特政府始开展人权外交 ,里根政府进一步发展深化。布什政府加以继承 ,并提出“超越遏制战略” ,并以此处理东西方关系。冷战后人权外交面临严重挑战。只有合作对话才能促进人权发展

伪满洲国的法律文本与人权实态

伪满成立后,颁布了殖民史上独一无二的《人权保障法》。通过对法律文本的解读,本文批驳了日本右翼史学家美化《人权保障法》的观点,还以结社权和通信自由为例,揭示了日本殖民统治下人权实态与法律规定的严重背离。可以说,伪满洲国任何冠冕堂皇的法律文本都掩盖不了三千万东北同胞生存权受到根本威胁的事实。
