又来了

近一两年,知识产权在我国得到了前所未有的关注.除了国家级的知识产权战略,各地也在纷纷制定省、市、县、区等不同规格的"小号"战略.知识产权法学随之日益风光,先是在大学教育中的地位步步高升,居然要变成与法学平等的"二级学科".据说知识产权法还要变成大学"通识课",今后除了<大学语文>、<大学英语>,或许很快就要有<大学知识产权>了.不仅如此,知识产权法还有可能成为中小学基础教育的内容,按照某些地方知识产权战略的规划,要在中小学生中"展开知识产权教育新高潮".这一切,让人想起京剧<锁麟囊>中薛湘灵在赵守贞面前的座次变化,用丫环碧玉的话说,"一点一点地往上升啊".又想起鲁迅的一篇题为<"来了">的文章,大意是:任何主义来到中国,都不要怕,无论什么主义都扰乱不了中国,也就是"来了"而已.1何以如此?因为中国人对待新主义、新制度往往并不当真,"只要有新鲜的名目,便取来玩一通,不久连这名目也糟蹋了,便放开,另外又取一个."2目睹中国知识产权之"热现状",不由得暗自心惊:来了,又来了!这回玩的是知识产权.     

东君又来,田园将芜,人也挥手从兹去

<正>二十四年前在大学读书时,曾因春天的到来而对身边的读书场景别有感触,填了一首虞美人"年华贵妃"的词,曰:"东君何故这般美?惹得人心醉。我欲无情更多情,一朝都与这年华贵妃。落花流水恨多少?争叫人心碎。我将不负好时光,去与她恩爱缠绵百岁。"那时在大学,心思全在读书,特别是想将耽误的时光夺回来,好像天下的事只有读书,所以很自然地要以身相许。和现在的大学生比,那时学生们的心地单纯极了,除了男女生间明传暗递,引而     

(Re)entry from the Bottom Up: Case Study of a Critical Approach to Assisting Women Coming Home from Prison

Despite decades of critical reframings, policy and practice on prisoner (re)entry often remains situated within a framework of individual responsibility that fails to acknowledge the structural drivers of criminalization. Attending to individual symptoms rather than root social, political and economic causes, such approaches may ultimately reinforce the inequalities and injustices that fuel imprisonment. This article presents a case study of an alternative approach. It examines A New Way of Life Reentry Project, a nonprofit organization in South Los Angeles, California, that offers housing and support to women coming home from prison through a critical and holistic framework—one that attends simultaneously to the physical, mental and social contexts that shape lived experiences before, during and after prison. Drawing from 7 years of observation and participation, supplemented by ten in-depth interviews, I argue that a critical, holistic approach can have a significant positive impact for people returning home from prison.

Coming Clean About the Criminal Law

This paper addresses three doctrinal phenomena of which it finds evidence in English law: the quiet extension of the criminal law so as to criminalise that which is by no means an obvious offence; the creation of offences the goal of which is not to guide potential offenders away from crime; and the existence of offending behaviour which is not itself thought to justify arrest or prosecution. While such phenomena have already been criticised by other criminal law theorists, this paper offers a critique to which little attention has yet been paid. It argues that the existence of these phenomena has been concealed from public view: that the organs of state have encouraged the belief that they are no part of English law. The paper then argues that it is high time the state came clean. The state owes its people answers for the imposition of the criminal law: it must account for the creation and enforcement of any given criminal offence. When the state misleads its people about the criminal law’s scope, goals and enforcement, it refuses to provide those people with the answers they are owed.     

Coming to terms with facial reproduction

The process of building human faces by applying clay to skulls to generate leads for identification of unknown human remains is plagued by the use of a number of terms which are already used for other purposes. Reconstitution, reconstruction, restoration, death mask, moulage, and sculpture have all been used, but each is used in another context in forensic science. "Facial reproduction" is suggested as a term which is not already in use in forensic science, which is precise, and which would thus be preferred over any of the other terms.     

论习惯法的诞生

习惯法的诞生，并不需要经过国家的承认。禁止性的习惯法，源于人的恐惧心理；允许性的习惯法，源于人的模仿本能。除此之外，血缘关系构成了习惯法诞生的外在背景，群体利益构成了习惯法诞生的内在动力，舆论毁誉构成了习惯法诞生之后的保障机制。以习惯法的诞生机制作为基础，还可以就习惯法与习惯、道德、制定法、原始法等相关概念的关系做出初步的辨析。     

Rethinking Agamben: Ontology and the Coming Politics

Giorgio Agamben’s work has often been criticised for being bleak, pessimistic, and of little use for thinking about political action. This image of Agamben has, however, resulted from a narrow reading of the Homo Sacer project that isolates it from his early thought on language and ontology. This essay draws on new works by Mathew Abbott and Jessica Whyte to explore the ways that Agamben attempts to think the conditions for overcoming the political nihilism of the present. It argues that the two works diverge on the question of where Agamben locates the potential for political transformation, and that this results from their differing approaches to the relationship between ontology and politics.     

Home and away

Conclusion Overall the thrust of the Children’s Bill is welcomed, however the opportunity to revise legislation, in operation for nearly a century, is unique and will set the tone for the first thirty years of the new millennium. Given this unique opportunity and the growing strength of the Irish culture and economy it is a pity that the radical stance adopted at the diversion stage is not carried throughout the Bill to present a more progressive future for the children of Ireland.

Let's Talk about Climate Change: Disclosure Is Coming

In this article, I review the newly released draft ASTM International standard on climate change disclosure. Many parties, from investors to state agencies, are calling for a consistent, comprehensive approach to disclosure of material financial impacts attributed to climate change. Disclosures range from costs associated with compliance to new laws to more general risk management strategies adopted by corporations. This article summarizes some of the key features of the draft standard and encourages participation in the development process.     

仰融归来的三道坎

从法律意义上讲仍然是“戴罪之身”的仰融，在短时间内恐怕还难以找到一条体面的回归之道。不过，作为一个耐住了七年寂寞的知天命者，他应该有足够的耐心去等待，因为和七年前不同。     

Coming soon to the "genetic supermarket" near you

Recent medical studies have indicated that synthesized human growth hormone (hGH) may cosmetically enhance short, but otherwise perfectly healthy, individuals by adding inches to their final predicted height. In this note, Curtis Kin examines the legal and ethical implications of such a discovery, arguing that nontherapeutic hGH treatment is likely the first of many biotechnology and gene therapy enhancements that may be available to the public in a "genetic supermarket" of enhancement products. Mr. Kin finds that the current regulatory framework for biotechnology and gene therapy inadequately regulates unapproved uses of hGH and fails to address properly its implications for a genetic "race to perfection." He proposes changes to the current regulatory framework that will enforce a strict distinction between therapeutic and enhancement applications of biotechnology and gene therapy. These changes in the law, Mr. Kin reasons, will help to solve the social and ethical problems posed by these emerging developments in technology.
