改革开放的30年就是中国行政法治发展的30年。平稳的动力机制之下，行政法治稳步推进。在对改革开放以来中国行政法治进行比较全面的考察基础上，总结经验、展望未来，可以引起学术界对中国行政法治更广泛和深入的思考，从而为21世纪中国行政法治的发展提供更多的智力支持。     

《西游记》中的救赎问题:猪八戒的法意识局限

四部古典小说里面,<西游记>恐怕是我最喜欢闲看的.不止是语言活泼,更是它意趣幽深.按照书中自陈,是甚么"曹溪路险,京岭云深,此处故人音杳","试问禅关,参求无数,往往到头虚老.     

以科学发展观推动工会工作的思考

西方国家利益集团规制思路及其对中国的借鉴

利益集团是民主社会中的一种客观的、必然的现象,也是一种利弊兼有的现象,因此政治共同体应该规范和引导利益集团的活动。西方国家对利益集团的规制主要有分权制衡、促进多元利益集团的相互抵消与自然平衡、增强政府自主性、加强依法规制、强化政党体制等思路与方法。这些思路对于有效规制我国改革开放以来因利益分化与民主政治发展而出现的利益集团有一定的借鉴意义。     

金融性与国际性：国际金融法本质特征之所在

国际金融法这一概念的本质特征就在于其调整对象具有金融性和国际性。从金融的内涵看,资金融通是金融的初始和基本的本质特征,但当代只有将金融界定为虚拟经济才能容纳全部的金融实践。金融性将国际金融法与研究国际关系问题的其它学科或科学区分开来。从外延看,金融涵盖货币、银行、证券、保险等,国际金融法相应地包括以上领域的制度。由于WTO将商业存在作为金融服务提供的方式之一,传统的"国际"标准暴露出其局限性,因此,国际性应将外国在东道国建立商业存在而发生的各类金融关系包括进来。国际性将国际金融法与国内金融法区分开来,而金融性与国际性的结合使国际金融关系成为国际金融法独有和特定的调整对象。     

Policy Expansion in Local Government Environmental Policy Making

Relatively little is known about when, why, and how some jurisdictions “double down” on policy priorities, rapidly adopting multiple measures tackling the same issue. Rapid policy expansion can emerge in fast‐evolving, uncertain, and contested policy arenas in which pressures for policy making are not satisfied, and even may be strengthened, by initial policy innovation. This article analyzes local government policy making on high‐volume hydraulic fracturing by New York State municipalities from 2008 to 2012. Policy path dependence, peer influence, and policy design appear to play a critical role in determining whether public officials respond to these pressures with policy expansion. Initial policy innovations can open windows for policy participants to secure additional measures that strengthen or enlarge the scope of action. Public officials and stakeholders seeking particular policy outcomes should take a long view of the policy process while simultaneously remaining alert for opportunities afforded by pressurized policy dilemmas.     

Managing Racial Diversity: Matching Internal Strategies with Environmental Needs

Although demographic diversity has been of paramount concern to researchers and practitioners in public management, studies exploring managerial strategies to capitalize on and respond to the needs of diverse client populations are scarce. This article examines strategies for managing diversity as a way to buffer environmental challenges in service delivery and performance resulting from heterogeneous client demands. Findings suggest that administrators prioritize diversity efforts when faced with higher levels of regulatory violations (a performance measure). A higher percentage of black residents is associated with lower service quality. However, the effect of managerial strategies for diversity on performance is conditioned by the racial composition of the clients: as the percentage of black nursing home residents increases, diversity management efforts are associated with a lower number of regulatory violations. Similarly, at higher levels of racial heterogeneity, diversity management efforts are associated with fewer regulatory violations.     

The Disclosure Dilemma: Nuclear Intelligence and International Organizations

Scholars have long argued that international organizations solve information problems through increased transparency. This article introduces a distinct problem that instead requires such institutions to keep information secret. We argue that states often seek to reveal intelligence about other states' violations of international rules and laws but are deterred by concerns about revealing the sources and methods used to collect it. Properly equipped international organizations, however, can mitigate these dilemmas by analyzing and acting on sensitive information while protecting it from wide dissemination. Using new data on intelligence disclosures to the International Atomic Energy Agency and an analysis of the full universe of nuclear proliferation cases, we demonstrate that strengthening the agency's intelligence protection capabilities led to greater intelligence sharing and fewer suspected nuclear facilities. However, our theory suggests that this solution gives informed states a subtle form of influence and is in tension with the normative goal of international transparency.
