论实施情报信息主导警务战略

情报信息主导警务是当今国际、国内警务发展的主流和趋势,是公安机关应对急剧变化和日益严峻的社会治安形势的需要,也是各项警务改革成功与否的关键.当前,公安机关在情报信息工作中还存在着认识不到位、应用不深入、流转无序、管理滞后等问题.为此,一要树立科学的情报信息观,正确认识情报信息在公安警务发展战略中的重要意义和作用;二要推进情报信息工作体制改革,探索建立符合地方实际的情报信息工作模式;三要强化情报信息功能性地位,提高情报信息主导警务资源配置的能力;四要深化情报信息应用,提高情报信息主导打防控工作的水平;五要加强情报信息保障体系建设,确保提供高质量的情报信息产品和服务.

On the Nature of Tolerance: Dichotomous or Continuous?*

The purpose of this article is to reconsider the claim made recently by Mondak and Sanders that political tolerance ought to be thought to be a dichotomous rather than continuous variable. Using data from both Russia and the United States, I demonstrate that those Mondak and Sanders regard as uniquely tolerant are most likely no more than people who were given insufficient opportunity to express their intolerance. Even if such a phenomenon of “absolute tolerance” exists (all ideas expressed in all ways are to be tolerated), it is sufficiently rare that few practical implications are indicated for those doing empirical work on political tolerance and intolerance. * I appreciate the valuable comments of Jeffcry Mondak on an earlier version of this paper.     

论中央与地方权限争议法律解决机制

解决中央与地方权限争议在西方联邦制和单一制国家有不同的模式 ,但基本上是由司法机关或专门的机关处理 ,而我国解决中央与地方权限争议的机制尚未建立健全。随着地方制度的深入改革和权力下放的进程 ,要在坚持国家统一前提下 ,进一步明确划分中央与地方的权限 ,完善解决中央与地方权限争议的法律 ,建立健全中央与地方权限争议的处理机构

论刑事证据规则的规范目的

刑事证据规则的规范目的对于规则适用中的解释、裁量和漏洞填补来说非常重要,因此在证据规则的适用中应探寻其规范目的.在证据规则的规范目的探寻中,应尊重立法者所确定的规范目的,但在立法者目的不符合现实需求或者明显不合理时,司法者可以进行一定的修正.应深入发掘证据规则的实质目的,对于具有多元规范目的的证据规则,应合理选择其首要目的或优先目的.总体上看,我国刑事证据规则的规范目的可分为五种类型,即维护司法正义、保障公民权利;保障证据的客观真实性;对证明力评价进行规范、指引;保障当事人质证、询问等程序性权利;合理设置证明负担.     

Economic Threats or Societal Turmoil? Understanding Preferences for Authoritarian Political Systems

Why do some individuals prefer to be governed in an authoritarian political system? One intuitive answer is that citizens prefer authoritarian rule when the economy and society are in turmoil. These are common explanations for democratic backsliding, and the emergence and success of authoritarian leaders in the twentieth century. Which of these explanations better explains preferences for authoritarian rule? Both types of threat coincide in small samples and high-profile cases, creating inferential problems. I address this by using three waves of World Values Survey data to look at individual-level preferences for different forms of authoritarian government. Using multiple macroeconomic and societal indicators, I find that economic threats, especially increasing income inequality, better explain preferences for authoritarian government. I conclude with implications for understanding the emergence of support for authoritarianism in fledgling democracies.     

Robert Tollison and operationalizing public choice

In this tribute to Robert Tollison, I will outline his contributions to the development of public choice. I focus on Tollison’s work on rent-seeking, the political economy of reform, and the rules level of analysis in sports economics. Throughout his career, Tollison brilliantly figured out ways to take insights from price theory and public choice theory and operationalize them using multiple methods of empirical analysis, including historical interpretation and statistical testing.
