Determinants of government size: evidence from China

This paper investigates the determinants of government size at the provincial level in China. We employ the panel data model as a platform for empirical analysis and control for endogeneity in the study. Our study shows that openness to trade and foreign direct investment (FDI) may curtail government expansion, and that the provincial-level public sector is characterized by economies of scale. This study also documents that Wagner’s law does not hold true for China. Moreover, both expenditure decentralization and revenue decentralization contribute to the expansion of China’s government.     

Correlation Between Average Tissue Depth Data and Quantitative Accuracy of Forensic Craniofacial Reconstructions Measured by Geometric Surface Comparison Method

Accuracy is the most important factor supporting the reliability of forensic facial reconstruction (FFR) comparing to the corresponding actual face. A number of methods have been employed to evaluate objective accuracy of FFR. Recently, it has been attempted that the degree of resemblance between computer‐generated FFR and actual face is measured by geometric surface comparison method. In this study, three FFRs were produced employing live adult Korean subjects and three‐dimensional computerized modeling software. The deviations of the facial surfaces between the FFR and the head scan CT of the corresponding subject were analyzed in reverse modeling software. The results were compared with those from a previous study which applied the same methodology as this study except average facial soft tissue depth dataset. Three FFRs of this study that applied updated dataset demonstrated lesser deviation errors between the facial surfaces of the FFR and corresponding subject than those from the previous study. The results proposed that appropriate average tissue depth data are important to increase quantitative accuracy of FFR.

我信仰,因我敬畏——拉德布鲁赫《社会主义文化论》译序

如果说思想者就是能够以其睿智和思想启迪社会人生的人,那么我认为拉德布鲁赫就是离我们最近的思想者之一.当然,如果说不同的人从不同的角度去判断会举出完全不同的、很可能是更多的思想者,那么我就说拉德布鲁赫是离我个人最近的思想者之一.我读拉德布鲁赫的文章著述,每每有接受启蒙、开发心智的感觉.

对精神赡养的法律思考

随着我国经济社会的快速发展,老年人(特别是城市)的物质赡养问题已基本得到解决。与此同时,老年人精神上的需求越来越强烈,特别是城镇的离退休老人。精神赡养问题能否引起家庭、社会的重视,能否得到司法支持,直接影响到老年人目前和将来的生活质量。因而,精神赡养已成为现代生活中亟待解决的重要问题之一。
