美国与新大国协调机制的构建:以七国集团为视角

新大国协调继承了传统大国协调通过外交会议、协商来决策的方式,治理领域由传统的军事安全扩展到经济、政治、社会和环境等多个领域。从新大国协调的起源看,美国作为西方世界最强大的国家开始起领导作用。本文通过考察"七国集团"的治理结构,发现美国领导下的多国合作是新大国协调最有意义的制度创新。这种一国领导、多国合作的特点不同于历史上的传统大国协调的治理体制,是一种新型的国际多边安全治理机制。由于这种领导的存在,新大国协调产生了明显的治理效果,主要包括:形成美国意志主导下的大国共同立场、应对国际危机的大国集体反应、其他大国对美国身份的认可以及美国对其他大国分配治理任务。     

Assisted reproductive technologies: Autonomy or subjugation? A case study from India

This article is based on the findings of a study conducted by Sama-Resource Group for Women and Health to understand the implications of Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ARTs) on the lives of women in the Indian context; to gauge the responses of the various social movements in the country on issues being raised by ARTs and to examine the state of regulation of ARTs in India.The article concludes that ARTs reinforce traditional patriarchal norms rather than challenge or subvert them. We suggest that the application of these technologies has in fact furthered the subjugation of women by firmly casting them in the role of ‘child bearers’. Our review of the national regulatory guidelines identifies the gaps in the regulation of ART clinics and exposes the limited understanding of the authorities with regard to the social and ethical implications of these technologies for individual women and Indian society at large.

Medicaid program; payment adjustment for provider-preventable conditions including health care-acquired conditions. Final rule

This final rule will implement section 2702 of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act which directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to issue Medicaid regulations effective as of July 1, 2011 prohibiting Federal payments to States under section 1903 of the Social Security Act for any amounts expended for providing medical assistance for health care-acquired conditions specified in the regulation.

Medicare program; hospital inpatient value-based purchasing program. Final rule

This final rule implements a Hospital Inpatient Value-Based Purchasing program (Hospital VBP program or the program) under section 1886(o) of the Social Security Act (the Act), under which value-based incentive payments will be made in a fiscal year to hospitals that meet performance standards with respect to a performance period for the fiscal year involved. The program will apply to payments for discharges occurring on or after October 1, 2012, in accordance with section 1886(o) (as added by section 3001(a) of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively known as the Affordable Care Act)). Scoring in the Hospital VBP program will be based on whether a hospital meets or exceeds the performance standards established with respect to the measures. By adopting this program, we will reward hospitals based on actual quality performance on measures, rather than simply reporting data for those measures.     

Medicare program; end-stage renal disease quality incentive program. Final rule
